My Digital Studio

Check out the really cute pages I created with Stampin' Up's My Digital Studio.



This is my kitty - he was pretty angry at me this day because he wanted to eat and I was taking pictures. That hat is a "stamped" image that I put on his head using My Digital Studio. I also added the background designer paper and the fancy edge design.



You can even add Hodgepodge Hardware like I did on this page.

I totally love this tool and have actually just sent my first project to be professionally printed. The great thing about this papercrafting software is that is uses SU artwork, designs and colors that we all know and love.

My Digital Studio is only $79.95 and can be purchased through my Stampin Up web site: http://stampingdanielle.stampinup.net

Let It Grow On You
Our Growth Chart special offer is off to a great start! We’re excited to share with you some photos and tips from a few of the demonstrators that have been selling this new, limited-time Décor Elements piece and are sure they’ll help our Growth Chart “grow” on you and your customers too!

You Can Take It With You!
Mom and demonstrator, Anne Warman from Barrington, Illinois, has her house on the market, but that didn’t stop her from using the Growth Chart! Her husband trimmed and painted a piece of plywood to place the vinyl on so when they sell their house they can take the Growth Chart wherever they go!

Crushed Curry Creativity
Grandmother and demonstrator, Gail Beezley from San Antonio, Texas, recently bought a new (old) house with a separate studio. In true Stampin’ Up! style, she even painted the walls Crushed Curry! Gail says, “I fell in love with the Growth Chart and had to have it for my studio. I can’t wait until my granddaughter comes to visit so I can take a picture of her with it.”

This Idea Really Measures Up
Lisa Clark thought beyond the traditional use of the Growth Chart and created a ruler for her craft room. She cut out the ruler, then cut out the inch marks and adhered just the measurement marks to the edge of her counter. She then added the foot and half foot markers back in. Lisa uses this unobtrusive ruler to trim ribbon lengths, make quick measurements of scraps, visualize layouts, and more.

When asked about the other pieces of the Growth Chart that she didn’t use, she says, “I may use the tree and birds elsewhere in my craft room for fun.”

Remember, the Décor Elements Growth Chart is only available through September 30, so share this special offer today!

Convention - First Official Day

So today was our first official day of Convention. We started with General Session where 3000 demonstrators gathered to listen to learn more about this years theme (Inspire - Create - Share).



During the general session we learned about a new partnership that Stampin Up has with Build-a-Bear. We have stamp sets and Sizzix Die Cuts. You are all going to love these cute little bears.



As a special surprise Build-a-Bear created a Demonstrator Build-a-Bear that was available today at Memento Mall. She is super cute. Mine has a Razzleberry Bow and she comes with a stamp that says...Life without Stamps is Unbearable.. The one on the left is mine..



Tonight was awards night - and there were a bunch of amazing demonstrators - who won some amazing awards. It would be wonderful to walk across that stage one day.

Tomorrow is our make-n-take day - I will post more pictures then.

Bag Pick up Day

One of the things that demonstrators look forward to at convention is Memento Mall. We can purchase some business builders like Designer Paper swatches and Stampin Up logo items like water bottles and shirts. They also look forward to receiving the Convention Bag. Every year we get a fun new bag that holds our free stamp sets. In this picture you can see the reversible tote bag.

So me and my fellow demonstrators went got to the Convention Center at about 9:00 AM. We got our bags and stood in line for about 2 hours to shop in Memento Mall.



We got into Memento mall and went crazy look at all of the fun stuff we could buy. You didn't even need your credit card, they have it on file for your convenience. Isn't that convenient? :O)



YAY Shopping! No, these are not all my bags...lol



I did some swapping today too... I will post some pictures of those another day. Tomorrow is the official start of Convention. Check back...
