Pretty in Pink


Hi Stampin' Friends!

Had a wonderful class at my home yesterday and we made this pretty card! I cased it from Beth Queen. I received her card in a swap and it just stood out amongst the 200+ swaps that I received!

I love Bling! Don't you? 

Well, it has been a pretty exciting last few weeks in my life...initially being on vacation with my hubby in Orlando and then continuing on to the Stampin' Up! Onstage event.

And...now...just like that! We are looking to Thanksgiving this coming week!

Hope that you, your family, friends and loved ones enjoy a most Happy and Healthy Thanksgiving Holiday filled with fun, good food and enjoyment...as I surely know that I will.

Stampin' Blessings to All!

Oh My Goodness!

Is all I can say after having spent 11 wonderful days in beautiful Orlando, Florida!

The first 5 were spent with my dear hubby visiting Disney Parks: Epcot, Disney Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and finally SeaWorld. We so very thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

Epcot had the Food and Wine Festival and we also dined at the French Restaurant there...food was fantastic!

We stayed at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort and were treated like Royalty! I truly felt like a Princess!

Then hubby returned home and I switched hotels to the Rosen Center which is connected to the Orange County Convention Center.

Again...I joined my Stampin' Up! demonstrator groupies, all 6-7,000 of them to Celebrate our company's 30th Birthday!

Dined with dear friends all over the country and world! I had a wonderful roommate and met with different groups of ladies dining, dancing and thoroughly enjoying ourselves!

Well, I am home now with my dear hubby and fur girls and I am so jazzed about all of the up and coming stunning Stampin' Up! product that is in store for the New Year!

I know, here it is...Thanksgiving in a mere few weeks and then my favorite Holiday...Christmas!!!

Well...I am setting my Stampin' Up! Goals high in the coming year and I want you ALL to be a part of it!!! 

The Maui Incentive Trip is coming up in 2020 and I really want to earn it...with your help of course!
Let's make this happen!!!

The card above is my General Swap that I created to share with my fellow demonstrators during our OnStage Event and everyone Loved it...which made me very happy too!

So...until next time....

Happy Stampin' Blessings,

Hi there my pretty inkers!

Hope you enjoy today's share! I absolutely Love dragonflies! So I thought to make a little framed piece of inky stamped artwork. It took about an hour to pull together! Made especially easy with my beautiful Stampin' Up! Detailed Dragonfly Thinlet dies from our Annual Catalog.

Summer is well half over already...I am so looking forward to some cooler temperatures especially here in beautiful sunny Phoenix Arizona.

This November is especially exciting as I am planning to attend the Stampin' Up! 30 Year Anniversary OnStage Convention Event in beautiful Orlando, Florida. My handsome hubby and I are going earlier to visit Epcot and Disneyland! I am sooooo very excited!!!

Picnic with You

Hi Stampin' Friends!

Just had to get one post in before the end of the month. Wow! You think that Christmas was busy...well let me tell you...this gal has been stampin', creatin' and going here and there all the while since!

It is great to be in such good spirits actually and I must admit it is easy when the weather is just fabulous here in sunny Phoenix, Arizona during the winter months.

Well...please allow me to share how the above banner came into being. My upline, Lorri Heilling holds Stampin' Up! events throughout the year for her downline (me) and other demonstrators.

The theme was Picnic and I volunteered to make a banner for the occasion! I used our oh so cute stamp set entitled Picnic with You and coordinating designer paper which can be found in the All New Occasions Catalog currently. And, by the way, for each $50 you spend, you receive a FREE item from the fantastic Sale-A-Bration Catalog!!!

This coming Saturday, February 3rd, I will be holding a card making class in my home from 10 AM to 12 NOON. If you would like to attend, please email me and I will send you an invitation!

Well, it is time for me to get busy now and work out a few designs that I am sure will tickle the fancy of my class attendees in class!

Hope that you are all stamping happily today! Meanwhile here at Pretty Inky Studio we aim to be Inking Pretty things to share, inspire and send to others to bring Joy into their lives~

Happy Stampin'!
