I have had the most fantastic time over the weekend with my fellow Stampin’ Up! demonstrators at our twice yearly convention. This time I was lucky enough to be invited to CentreStage where Demonstrators who are Silver Elite and above are spoiled with a lovely meal, business training and lots of special treats. It was amazing to meet up with other demonstrators, share experiences and ideas and especially lovely that I was accompanied by my fantastic upline Mikaela Titheridge.

On Saturday 11 members of the team joined Mikaela and I for a full on day of crafting and business. One of the best things about the day is the swapping…….we love swapping. Many demos make card fronts or 3D projects to swap with each other. This means we come home with loads of ideas and inspiration and loads of samples to show at class often using stamp sets and dies we don’t have. Here are a couple of photos showing the swaps I received.

Lots and lots of lovely inspiration there.

The Stamparatus – Stampin’ Up!’s new stamp positioning tool is coming soon and will be available to pre-order from 09.00pm on 16 November – 30 November – while stocks last and will be shipped out around the 1st February 2018. I am beyond excited about this and will definitely be reserving my Stamparatus as soon as I can. Click on this link to see how it works -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3teCr7Xo4G8&feature=youtu.be
Here’s why I want one;
It’s can be used with both red rubber and Photopolymer stamps
There is a foam mat to use with Photopolymer stamps
It has 2 open sides so you can stamp on larger paper and cardstock
It has integral rulers and grid lines for quick and easy measuring. Please note that the UK version will be metric only
It has 2 reversible plates making a total of 4 surfaces to work with. This means endless possibilities with 2, 3 or even 4 step stamping.
Both plates can simply be unhinged and moved down making it much easier to stamp a line of the same image or a repeating patter.
2 bar magnets included to hold the paper in place and there is an area underneath the Stamparatus to store the magnets

Twice a year Stampin’ Up! demonstrators have the opportunity to get together at an event called OnStage for training and the opportunity to network. It is always such fun; we get to see the up-coming new catalogue, to try out some of the new product and to get some business tips and ideas and come away with some freebies……..Whoop Whoop.
As part of the fun many of us design and make swaps to share with other demonstrators and this time I opted for a 3D swap using some of the Brights colour collection – Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzelberry, Old Olive, Bermuda Bay and Real Red. I knew I wanted to use mini Toblerones , love these………. so I searched Pinterest and Youtube for ideas on packaging and stumbled across an video by Linda Parker – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrV6TkIV5qg featuring a box she made to hold 2 mini Toblerones. I adapted her measurements and came up with this cute little triangular box.
www.crafty-rootes.com -OnStage swaps using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I started with a piece of cardstock 5” by 5¼”. Using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool I scored the long side at ⅞”, 1”, 2¼”, 3½” and 4¾”. I rotated the cardstock 90⁰ and scored on the short side at 1¼”and 3¾”.
www.crafty-rootes.com -OnStage swaps using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
Rotating the cardstock to the long side again with the ½” score line on the left make a notch mark at the 2⅜” mark at the top and bottom of the cardstock.

Using scissors cut as shown in the photograph.
www.crafty-rootes.com -OnStage swaps using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
Taking a ruler and the scoring tool, score from the 2⅜” notch to the right angled score lines to form a triangle at the top and bottom.
www.crafty-rootes.com -OnStage swaps using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
Fold and burnish all of the score lines, bendy the triangular scorelines in the opposite direction to the rest – see photograph. I also rounded the corners of the top flap.
www.crafty-rootes.com -OnStage swaps using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I applied Fast Fuse to the 4 tabs and closed the sides of the box. The mini Toblerone was then inserted and the flap closed over.
www.crafty-rootes.com -OnStage swaps using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
Taking a whole sheet of Whisper White cardstock I randomly stamped a variety of flowers and leaves using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set and the same Brights colour palette used for the boxes. I then cut the stamped cardstock into 4½” by ¾” strips using the Stampin’ Paper Trimmer.
www.crafty-rootes.com -OnStage swaps using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
These were wrapped around each box and stuck together with Fast Fuse. I stamped the sentiment from the Thoughtful Banners stamp set in one of the Brights colours onto Whisper White cardstock before punching it out with a ¾” Circle punch. Using Fast Fuse I added this circle to a 1” circle punched using the Brights collection of cardstock and a 1” Circle punch. The circle was then stuck onto the belly band using Fast Fuse.

I have been making a special birthday card this week for my father-in-law using the versatile Number of Years stamp set and the co-ordinating Large Numbers framelit dies. He is 96 tomorrow and looking fantastic.
I started with a piece of Whisper White cardstock 3⅝” by 3” and die cut the 96 from the centre of the panel. I added the die cut numbers to my stash as I planned to use the negative image for the card. I took the panel and stamped the ‘happy’ above the die cut aperture and the ‘birthday’ below the die cut using Tranquil Tide ink. Both words came from the Number of Years stamp set.

I took a Thick Whisper White card base and added a piece of Delightful Daisy dsp 4⅛” by 2¾” to the front using Tombow Liquid Adhesive.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Number of Years stamp set and Large Letter dies by Stampin’ Up!
I added the die cut piece on top of the dsp using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the ‘th’ in Tranquil Tide cardstock using Tranquil Tide ink, flagged the end using scissors and added it to the card front using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. To finish off I added some of the Silver Metallic Enamel Shapes.

I really liked the simplicity of this card. Hope my father in law likes it.

I saw a fantastic Youtube video recently made by a lady called Beth from Beth’s Papr Cuts – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XrRLw9tOis. She was demonstrating something called the ‘dappled night sky technique’ and I couldn’t wait to try it.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Night in Bethlehem by Stampin’ Up!
I took a piece of Watercolour paper 4⅞” by 3⅝” and wet it all over using my Aqua Painter and water. I then painted it all over with Night of Navy ink deliberately leaving darker and lighter areas. Add more water if needed as you want the ink to move around on the paper. While the Night of Navy ink was still wet I loaded the Aqua Painter with Tempting Turquoise ink and using the lid of the Aqua Painter I flicked the ink onto the watercolour paper. I repeated this step using Blushing Bride ink. I then left the piece to dry before adding Clear Wink of Stella by smacking the pen against a pencil and allowing the shimmer paint to splatter and give some shimmer to the sky.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Night In Bethlehem by Stampin Up
I cut the ‘townscape’ from Whisper White cardstock using the Bethlehem Edgelit dies and the Big Shot. I then stamped the sentiment from the Merry Patterns stamp set in the lower right corner using Night of Navy ink. I also die cut the star from the same edgelit die set using Silver Foil.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Night In Bethlehem by Stampin’ Up!
When the watercolour panel was completely dry I added it to a slightly larger layer of Night of Navy cardstock 5” by 3 ¾” using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. This piece was then added to a Thick Whisper White card base. I glued the star to the upper left hand corner using Tombow Liquid Adhesive before adding the ‘townscape’ to the bottom of the watercolour panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I really love the simplicity of this card, hope you like it.

I am loving the Christmas Quilt stamp set and co-ordinating Quilt Builder framelit dies and they are incredibly versatile and definitely not just for Christmas. Today I have used the bundle to make an encouragement card for a friend who is having a bit of a tough time at the moment. She is a quilter so will totally get this card.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Christmas Quilt stamp set and Quilt Builder framelit dies by Stampin’ Up!
I began by taking the intricate square die and the square frame die from the Quilt Builder framelit dies, placing one inside the other using a piece of Washi Tape to keep the 2 dies in place before running it through the Big Shot using Berry Burst cardstock, Fresh Fig cardstock, Whisper White cardstock and Pool Party cardstock.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Christmas Quilt stamp set and Quilt Builder framelit dies by Stampin’ Up!
I chose the Berry Burst intricate frame to make my card and added to a piece of Whisper White cardstock 2⅞” by 2⅞” which I had already covered with Fast Fuse Adhesive. I then added the different colour pieces, Fresh Fig, Whisper White and Pool Party into the negative spaces like a jigsaw puzzle. There was a tiny strip of Whisper White to trim off on 2 sides using scissors. I was really happy with the effect and the bonus is you have all the pieces to make 3 more panels in different colour ways.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Christmas Quilt stamp set and Quilt Builder framelit dies by Stampin’ Up!
I took the panel and ran it through the Big Shot using the Quilt Top Embossing Folder which just added so much texture and pulled the whole piece together.
I placed the panel onto a Thick Whisper White card base and stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set using Berry Burst ink. I then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the embossed panel and added it to the card front. Gorgeous, really hope my friend likes it.

I have been using the Season Like Christmas stamp set to make non seasonal card today and I love it.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Season Like Christmas stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I stamped the solid tree image on a piece of Whisper White cardstock in Garden Green ink. I stamped the more detailed layer in Always Artichoke ink over the top. I added the tree trunk image in Early Espresso ink; love how this really brings the tree to life.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Season Like Christmas stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I then repeated the steps to stamp 2 more trees, one to either side of the original tree and slightly in front. I added the ‘ground’ image in 3rd, 4th and 5th generation Early Espresso ink to give some depth to the ground.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Season Like Christmas stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I added the Whisper White 4⅝” by 3⅝”panel to a layer of Early Espresso cardstock a 4¾” by 3¾” using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a piece of Linen Twine 3 times around the panel and after some thought I added it to the right side of a Garden Green card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Whisper White panel, 5⅜” by 3⅝” to the inside of the card after stamping the tree image in the lower right hand corner. I also stamped the image onto a Whisper White Envelope.

I had a great time on Sunday running a craft session at a soon to be 10year old’s birthday party. The birthday girl, her friends and her younger sister were a pleasure to spend time with and they were so enthusiastic. I designed 2 projects using the Cool Treats Stamp set and the co-ordinating Frozen Treats Framelit dies for them to make.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Cool Treats stamp set and Frozen Treas Framelit dies by Stampin’ Up!
The first was a card and we started by stamping one of the ice lolly images using Flirty Flamingo ink, So Saffron Ink, Peakaboo Peach ink and Lemon Lime Twist ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock. We added the lolly stick using Crumb Cake ink before die cutting the lollies using the Frozen Treats framelit dies. The girls did an amazing job and loved stamping.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Cool Treats stamp set and Frozen Treas Framelit dies by Stampin’ Up!
Next we inserted 3 strips of cardstock 5⅞” by ¼” in Flirty Flamingo, Peakaboo Peach and So Saffron, into the Seaside Embossing Folder and ran it through the die cutting machine to get some cool texture. The girls loved doing this. We added the embossed strips to a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” using Snail Adhesive and used the Grid Paper to help make sure they were straight. They stamped the sentiment from the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set in Flirty Flamingo ink below the embossed strips.
Using Snail Adhesive they added a Whisper White circle, die cut ahead of time using the Stitched Shapes framelits to a scalloped circle, die cut ahead of time from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock using the Layering Circles framelits. This piece was then added to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals on top of the embossed strips.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Cool Treats stamp set and Frozen Treats Framelit dies by Stampin’ Up!
The 4 die cut ice lollies were then added to the Whisper White circle with either Snail Adhesive or Stampin’ Dimensionals. The girls then added some Iridescent Sequins using Mini Glue Dots and a Paper Piercer, they loved these. To finish we stamped another lolly and lolly stick onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” for the inside and onto the front of a Whisper White Envelope.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Cool Treats stamp set and Frozen Treats Framelit dies by Stampin’ Up!
For the second project we took a piece of Whisper white cardstock 8½” by 3½” and stamped a variety of ice lollies along one of the long sides in Flirty Flamingo, So saffron, Peakaboo Peach, Lemon Lime Twist and Pool Party ink, the girls even did a little 2 step stamping which they loved. To make the project go faster I had already stamped the lolly sticks along one of the 8½” sides using Crumb Cake ink and applied Tear & Tape to the back of the stamped side and along one of the 3½” sides.
Next they folded and burnished the base of the bag which I had scored and cut for them. I started with a 3” by 3” piece of Whisper White cardstock and scoring at ½” on all 4 sides then cutting up the score lines to form 4 tabs. I had added Tear & Tape to the tabs ahead of time and the girls removed the backing and adhered the tabs to the outside of the base. They then removed the backing from the adhesive on the long side and adhered it to the base, starting from the middle of one of the sides and wrapping it around pressing it into place as they went. The backing was then removed from the remaining short edge and overlapped to seal the sides of the bag.
They curled 2 strips of Whisper White cardstock 8” by ½” using a Bone Folder before applying a Mini Glue Dot to both ends of each strip and adding them to the inside of the bag to form the handles. To finish off they decorated the outside with Iridescent Sequins which they stuck on with Mini Glue Dots.
They did so well and their cards and bags looked amazing and I just love the summery colours..

Oooohhh I have the new Stampin’ BlendsAlcohol Pens and I am not afraid to use them…………..they are fab-U-lous.
I stamped the large flower image from the Graceful Garden stamp set in Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock 4¾” by 3⅝” and coloured it in starting with the flower petals and the light Cherry Cobbler pen. I added shadow with the dark Cherry Cobbler pen and went over each petal again with the light colour. As these are alcohol based pens it is best to only colour small areas otherwise the ink dries. Move onto the next few petals and repeat. I coloured the stem and leaves in the same way using the light and dark Old Olive pens.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Graceful Gardens stamp set and Stampin’ Blends pens
I placed the large geometric patterned stamp onto the clear block E and stamped it on opposite corners of the Whisper White panel using Cherry Cobbler ink. The sentiment from the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set was stamped in Old Olive ink.
I rounded the opposite corners using the WRMK’s corner rounder and added the panel to a layer of Basic Black cardstock using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. To finish I added some Black Rhinestones to pull the card together. I added a layer of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” and stamped the geometric design in the corner and onto the Whisper White Envelope.
I really love these pens, they are so easy to use and give great depth to the coloured images.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Graceful Gardens stamp set and Stampin’ Blends pens
I stamped the geometric design again on to opposite corners of a Real Red card base and added a piece of Old Olive cardstock 4⅛” by 2½” to the card front using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The flower stamped panel was then added to the card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

An Autumnal Colorful Seasons anniversary card made using the Colorful Seasons stamp set. This gorgeous stamp set was out on my desk again today and I used it to make a lovely Anniversary card for my husband.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Colorful Seasons stamp set by Stampin Up
I wanted to use the solid leaf images from the stamp set and paired them up with gorgeous Autumnal colours. I took the larger ‘maple leaf’ image and stamped it in Crushed Curry ink onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝”, cleaned the stamp on my fabulous Stampin’ Scrub – couldn’t live without this, and stamped it again in 2nd generation Cherry Cobbler ink, Pear Pizzazz ink, 2nd generation Cajun Craze ink and 2nd generation Rich Razzleberry ink. I added the smaller maple leaf image using the same ink colours in either 1st or 2nd generation ink. I added this panel to a layer of Early Espresso cardstock 5 ½” by 3 ¾” using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. This whole piece was then added to an Old Olive card base, again using Tombow Liquid Adhesive.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Colorful Seasons stamp set by Stampin Up
I stamped the Happy Anniversary from the Number of Years stamp set in Old Olive ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock 2¾” by 2¾” before running it through the Big Shot with a circle from the Stitched Shapes Framelits. I stamped around the edges of the die cut circle using the same images. I die cut an Early Espresso scalloped circle from a 3” x 3” piece of cardstock and the Layering Circle dies and added it to the back with Tombow Liquid Adhesive.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Colorful Seasons stamp set by Stampin Up
I added some Fast Fuse to the back of the Early Espresso circle and adhered some messy Copper Metallic Thread. This piece was then added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I like the card and so did my husband……..hooray.
