This past week during my Online Paper Crafting Class on Facebook, I shared how to add divided areas to our Acetate Card Boxes to make a 3-sectioned gift box that shows off the goodies and treats inside. There is a bit of math involved, but I shared my measurements and gave tips to make it duplicatable. I featured new Spring Catalog products, too!… From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper, Heart Doilies, Heart Punch Pack, From My Heart Faceted Gems, Peaceful Moments Stamp Set, and Real Red 3/8” Double-Stitched Satin Ribbon.
I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below the photos, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for my project that I demonstrated.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper (available January 3, 2020)
6-7/8” x 4-7/8” scored on two long sides and one short side at 9/16” and 1-1/8”
5-3/8” x 4” scored on all sides at 9/16” and 1-1/8”
Whisper White Cardstock
Scrap for stamping and punching heart
Flirty Flamingo Cardstock
Scrap for punching scalloped heart
Basic Black Scalloped Edge Ribbon (retiring at 20% off)
16”
Here’s the box that I demonstrate from start to finish. Well…ALMOST to the finish. I actually forgot the last embellishments.
I added the last embellishments…those faceted gems with Glue Dots after I stopped recording though.
This is a fun candy cane/snowman version of the gift box made with the Let It Snow Designer Paper which sold out about a day after the Year-End Closeouts were announced this past Tuesday morning.
And here are the original boxes I made back in late October/early November. I used the Nobel Peacock Designer Paper and enclosed coordinating personalized M&Ms and personalized bone folders etched by Tamra Davis at Ta-Da Moments. These were the gifts I gave to my team members that attended the November 2019 OnStage locations in Las Vegas, Portland, Lansing, Atlanta and Hartford.
Here are six members of my Stampers With ART group who were hanging out with me one evening in Portland. I’m so happy they loved their gifts!
In fact many have told me they won’t be eating their M&Ms. LOL
I hope you enjoyed what I had to share.

MY ONLINE PAPER CRAFTERS CLUB IS LOOKING FOR NEW MEMBERS I’m forming a new Paper Crafters club that will begin mid-December (with orders due mid-month for January, February, March, April, May, and June). And we are looking for more to join us. The commitment is to order at least $25 worth of Stampin’ Up! product in each of those 6 months. In one of those months, you would reap the hosting rewards (free merchandise based on the club orders). And then you’d also be able to get in on monthly product perks that would be sent to you along with your monthly club cards.
I ABSOLUTELY love what I do. So I thank my lucky stars every day that I get to share my passion for paper crafting with all of you. About a week before flying to Portland, I found out that I ranked among the top performing Stampin’ Up! demonstrators again this past Stampin’ Up!® year. And I was able to celebrate these achievements on Saturday: #15 in the US for leadership, #15 in the US for recruiting, and #42 overall in the world! Eek! Thank you, thank you, thank you to my team, my customers, my subscribers, my fellow demonstrators, my family and friends, those who work at Stampin’ Up!,…
It was also super exciting to see several of the demonstrators in my group get recognized for some of their achievements as well. We were spread across three tables in Portland (AND across 5 different OnStage locations around the US), so I don’t have photos of everyone. But here are a couple. Ashley Kuphal promoted to Bronze Elite!
And Vicki Spicer and Cheryl Lee were recognized for their sales!
I love attending these events and growing my friendships with my team members, but I also love the friendships I’ve made (and continue to make) with so many others at these events. On Friday night I was able to reconnect with Jeanna Tudela. She always has a bright smile and a warm hug for me. We met on my first incentive trip in 2006! She cheered me on for my karaoke contest.
I’ve known of Robyn Cardon for awhile, but we officially connected on a bus ride taking us back to the ship during the Alaskan cruise in July of 2018. She’s such a sweetheart.
Margaret and Leo Van Vliet are two of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. I’ve known them since 2006, too. (That first incentive trip fostered some wonderful friendships.)
Ms Jeanne Ciolli is another ray of sunshine. And this fellow Paper Pumpkin fanatic was an OnStage presenter on Saturday! She did a fantastic job showing off my favorite new products…the Peaceful Poppies Suite. (I’ve got a photo of her projects below.)
And then on Saturday I had a lot of fun helping at the check-in table with these Stampin’ Up! staff members, Jason (JZ) Zarogoza and Sean Galloway. (You can tell we had a lot of laughs.)
I was excited to get this fancy backdrop photo with Deb Naylor and Jeanne Ciolli. We were the Paper Pumpkin Advisory members in attendance at this Portland OnStage location.
Ruth Bingle is a gem! We’ve both been with Stampin’ Up! for many years, and it was wonderful to spend a little quality time chatting with her.
Did you see some of the display board photos I shared Saturday? Here are photos of the rest of the display boards featuring projects demonstrated on stage and several swap cards. (This first one features Jeanne’s projects. I can’t wait to get my hands on this suite of products!)
LOTS of fantastic new products are going to be available in the upcoming 2020 Jan-June Mini Catalog and 2020 Sale-a-Bration Brochure.
And as attendees of these events we got to take some of these products home with us. Here are gifts from Friday night – a new stamp set and a credit card case with the awesome poppies suite design.
Then on Saturday all the OnStage attendees received this cute backpack, some pens, some pins, and another new stamp set.
Prize Patrol is always exciting. We get even more new products in our hands. Below are Mary, Lisa, Nancy, Marciene and Ashley sporting their prizes.
And ta-da!!! Look at the stamp set I won…Painted Poppies. Needless to say, I was thrilled. We also got to split up the products from the make-n-takes. So we each took home a few more gifts. Plus each of us received a pack of the new Country Club Designer Paper.
When OnStage was over, our group of 15 gathered at our hotel to visit, eat supper, show-n-tell our swaps, and exchange more gifts and cards. Front: Kayla Cory, Vicki Spicer, me, Theresa Gloe, Lisa Marshall Back: Verla Carpenter, Kristie Strum, Mary Marohl (squatting lower), Nancy Forsberg, Cheryl Lee, Ashley Kuphal, Diane Keough, Amanda Martin, Marciene Ingram, and Teri Zupancich
Here are photos of more gifts I got. Amazing creativity, right?!

Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage November 2019 is happening this weekend in several locations around the globe. The “Live” 3-day event was in Dortmund, Germany. (And I say was, because Germany is several hours ahead of where I live. Their event is now over as I am posting this. You may have seen photos out there on social media.) The “Local” OnStage events are/were all over the globe. In the US they are in Hartford, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Lansing and Portland.
I flew into Portland Thursday afternoon along with several fellow Stampers With ART demonstrators. Here we are at the airport in Minneapolis ready to take off.
And then I joined Vicki Spicer, Ashley Kuphal (Cards by Kuphal), Nancy Forsberg & Kayla Cory (Stampingbae), and Mary Marohl. We rented a vehicle from the airport and saw some of the sites. We drove east and had a late lunch at the Thunder Island Brewing Company by the Cascade Locks area.
Then we walked out to the southwest tip of Thunder Island and took a few photos of the the Bridge of the Gods and the surrounding beautiful area. What a fun and amazing time!
On the way back we stopped to look at a waterfall called Horsetail Falls. I didn’t get many photos…sorry. And it was getting dark out by this time.
We also stopped to shop at a beautiful place called Multnomah Falls Lodge. And on the way back to the hotel we picked up some water and snacks at Target (of course). Before calling it a night, we gathered together with a few more gals that are here from our group and exchanged hand-stamped gifts (we love to create for each other!).
So many clever ideas and packaging!
Friday morning at hung out in the breakfast area and visited a LOT. Nancy, Kayla, Mary, Ashley and Vicki left at 8 AM to do more Oregon sight-seeing. But I wanted to stay back to meet up with a few others in our group that hadn’t arrived yet, to get caught up in emails, and to relax a bit before the CenterStage event that night. I even declined going to explore with Cheryl Lee (my roommie), Marciene Ingram, Kristie Strum and Teri Zupancich when they took off to explore downtown Portland (guess I’ll have to come back someday). I think I just needed a low-key day.
And it was fun to see other fellow demonstrators in the hotel lobby that I only get to see every year or so at these events. Here I am with Deb Allen, Ann Clemmer and Denise Waddell. Denise is my 4th level upline.
CenterStage Friday night was very nice. This event is for those who have the title of Silver Elite or higher.
They really know how to make us feel special.
Here I am with my sweet friend and roomie, Cheryl Lee.
Cheryl and I sat with Pattie Berg, Cheryl Hamilton and Sandy Hill. Such wonderful company!
When we got back, a bunch of us from our group gathered in Teri and Marciene’s room, exchanged a few gifts and had lots of laughs. (I’ll share photos of those gifts later.)
We all got an early start this morning and we were at the Expo Center around 7:30 AM. I was a volunteer, so I helped to check in demonstrators when the doors opened at 8:30 AM. That was a blast to meet new people and see old friends.
FEAST YOUR EYES! Here are a few photos of the display boards showing new products that will be available in the 2020 Spring Mini Catalog and Sale-a-Bration Brochure.
I’ll share more photos tomorrow. In the meantime…the catalogs are in our hands now!!! I’ll be ordering some products early and sharing them with you on Facebook and on my blog. So stay tuned!
Remember…
Next week Stampin’ Up!’s Online Extravaganza is returning November 20-22! I’ll share more details when they are shared with us demonstrators on November 18th. In the meantime, mark your calendars so you can see what will be offered during this promotion.

I got this corner-cut layout idea from a swap I received on the incentive trip from Ann Clemmer. (I shared it along with my other swaps on July 18th.) I thought it was clever and unique.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Pretty Peacock Cardstock
4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″ and folded in half for the card base
Scrap for die-cutting/embossing the leaf (or use what is left over after cutting off the corner of the card base)
Gray Granite Cardstock
4″ x 5-1/4″
Early Espresso Cardstock
2-15/16″ x 2-15/16″
Scrap for punching two leaf clusters
Champagne Foil
Scrap for die-cutting/embossing the leaf
Come to Gather Designer Paper (pattern with white pumpkins and gray background)
Two pieces that are 1-3/8″ x 1-3/8″
Come to Gather Designer Paper (pattern with polka-dots on gray background)
Two pieces that are 1-3/8″ x 1-3/8″
Directions…
Measure 3″ up the right side and 3″ across the bottom from the lower right corner of the folded card base. Mark those two spots with a pencil. Then cut diagonally to remove the lower right corner of the card front.
Stamp the large leaf image on the upper left corner of the Gray Granite Cardstock using Pretty Peacock ink. And attach to the inside of the card.
Attach the Early Espresso square to the front of the card with Dimensionals.
Stamp the two sentiments with Early Espresso ink on the card front in the upper left and on the Gray Granite layer peeking out on the lower right.
Adhere the designer paper pieces to the Early Espresso square (now a diamond).
Die-cut and punch the leaves. (The dies also emboss at the same time!) Adhere them to the middle of the diamond using Glue Dots and Dimensionals.
This is what it looks like when I prepare to mail out my Stampers With ART make-n-take materials. My friend (and assistant) Vicki Spicer came over to help me with this process. Yay! Love that gal!
I’m already in the process of planning the October 16th make-n-takes. 😃
This past Sunday was our fantastic Creative Connections event in Medina, Minnesota! Our local leaders group puts this on for our team members each year. This year I helped with assembling name tags and checking in the 290 attendees when they arrived.
Everyone does their part in some small or large way. Those that demonstrated and presented this year were Sue Nurnberger, Amy Rich, Lisa Schultz, Beth Tetzlaff, Dawn Olchefske, Bj Peters, Donna Griffith, Brian Pilling, Kay Kalthoff, Patsy Waggoner and Karen Titus.
The room was packed with energy and ideas. There were display boards everywhere, prizes for everyone, and opportunities to visit and take photos. People were swapping cards and having a grand time soaking in what they could.
Thank you to Terri Gaines, Susan Campfield, and Georgia Giguere for taking the lead once again on this super affordable training event! Those in my team that attended were all smiles! And how fun it was to have Brian Pilling and Donna Griffith from the Stampin’ Up! home office spend their day with us again.
And it’s amazing what can happen with all these creative people get together! I’m looking forward to next year. Be a part of my community and you’ll be able to take part on August 9, 2020!

It’s been an interesting week so far since I got back from the Greek Isles Incentive Trip. It was difficult to get my body clock adjusted to Central Time and get back into my normal routine. Then within the last 24 hours we have discovered that my husband has pneumonia and my youngest is also ill…in fact too ill to follow through with his hernia surgery that was scheduled for this morning. I hated putting it off initially because I of my travels, and now I’m sad that it will take place even later as I was hoping he’d have plenty of time to heal before school starts up again. Thank you to all of you who watched my Facebook Live yesterday (which I will share here on my blog on Saturday) and have sent your well wishes and prayers Luke’s way. I’ll keep you posted.
Today I hope to give you LOTS of creative inspiration in one post. I am sharing more photos from the Greek Isles Incentive Trip…photos of the swap boards, several of the swaps I received, and photos of a couple gifts I was given by fellow demonstrators. I’ve watermarked photos of the individual swaps/gifts to give credit to the demonstrator that I got it from. Click here to see the card I used as my swap. In fact you may even be able to spot it in one of the swap board photos below.
SWAP BOARDS
SOME SWAPS I RECEIVED
GIFTS/CARDS FROM A FEW DEMONSTRATORS
I feel pretty blessed to have brought home all these creative ideas. ❤️
To those of you that were waiting on your product shares due to backordered products,…you should have your products by now.
I mailed the remainder of them out on Tuesday morning.
Again I apologize for the delay and thank you for your patience. I’ve never experienced that sort of wait before. The delays from backordered products caused me more stress than I expected. So I have to admit I am unsure if I will offer product shares for the upcoming 2019 Holiday Catalog, If you participated in my shares, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
