Bee HappiLeaCraftin with Tamara

I simple can not wait to get all new ink to store mine this way!  I have the new colors from this years Color Refresh, but those are the only ones so far. I will slowly work at getting them all and that way I will have 2 of everything so doing classes might go a tad faster 😉 And to be honest... I don't think these pieces are overly pricey either! I know you have to buy a lot of pieces, but working at it slowly isn't that bad. You can see here how easy it is to organize your space now with the awesome new Storage by Stampin' Up! pieces...

     I want to thank Jackie Aitken for sharing her beautiful cards on the Demo page on Facebook because they gave me the inspiration to make these myself. I love the new bundles and suites in this years catalog. This one is the Tropical Escape Suite, stamp set, thinlits & 6 x 6  DSP. I would love to link so you could all see her beautiful cards but I can't as it is a closed group just for Demo's, but if she ever puts them on her page, Jaxx Crafty Creations ... I will definitely link her cards.      These are pretty simple cards... I just trimmed the 6x6 DSP on one side, trimming off half an inch then on the 6x6 side I cut it in half. Trying not to waste too much of the DSP. The rest is just stamped, cut out and put together however you like... you can see mine are slightly different.

     It is so exciting! Stampin' Up! has come out with a new tool for all us stampers, it's called the Stamparatus and it is going to be an amazing tool. I can see myself using it all the time! I am just hoping that I can get one with what Stampin' Up! is trying with it...      They are trying a new Reservation system with this tool, I think to see what the demand will be like. The first Reservation window was the 16th of November and it didn't last very long. I think it was only open for 10-15 minutes and closed again. It is a high demand tool already 😉  The next window to Reserve is December 5th at 2 MT so make sure to be ready!      Go to the shop now badge here on my blog to create an account with me then just log in a little early so your ready on the 5th of December and follow the steps to Reserving your very own STAMPARATUS! Be one of the lucky ones to get it early to show it off 😊      I'm sad as I may not...
