The Optics are Stunning!

Hey Guys, The optics are stunning on this card! I wasn’t sure how it was accomplished and almost didn’t try to make it! BUT it looked so cool I HAD to try it! If you are like me and are a visual learner, click here to watch my video. Here is the front and back of my card so you can see what I mean.

The Optics are Stunning!
The Optics are Stunning!

I wanted to give it a try, since it was so original. At first I thought there were notches cut out, but they aren’t notches they are slits! This allows the middle part to move but stay in place! Thanks to Beccy’s Place for presenting hers, so I could make my own!

Joining offer this month!!

All in all, since I have finished telling you about how the optics are stunning on my card, I can move on! Stampin’ Up! is having a joining offer for the month of October! Conversely it was over 21 years ago I joined, and I haven’t looked back since! Of course, I love what I have learned, who I have met and places I’ve gone! After all, a person should do what makes them happy and THIS fills me with JOY! Mostly the reason I joined was to save money! But, I was going to purchase anyway, but this way I got a discount! After all, getting together with friends was so much fun. Undoubtedly, THIS is why I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t tell you how to MAXIMIZE your investment! Click here to join my team.

Did you KNOW…..

Certainly you know that if you watch my YouTube videos Live, you can be in a drawing to win the project of that day!? Of course, I love it when people are on watching when I am Live! After all, It’s great to talk to you and get to know you better! Unquestionably I would LOVE if you would subscribe to my YouTube Channel, this way I KNOW that you want to see more!

So you know other than the stamp set the one thing you’ll need is a Silicone Craft Sheet! This technique is one of the easiest ones to learn.

Did you see the New Mini Catalog?

Conversely, I LOVE Christmas cards! Indeed, All year I look forward to having my Christmas card classes. Basically, We make 16 cards, 2 each of 5 designs and 1 Special card! I keep the cost down so it doesn’t break the bank and we stamp from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Also we all bring a dish to share, listen to Christmas music and the best part is we laugh and bond! It’s too late for this year, but keep it in mind for next year.

The Mini has so many stamp sets that I HAD to have! Of course, The reason I joined SU! is so I can earn enough for me to purchase what I want. 🙂 That hasn’t changed since 2003! Chiefly, IF you would like to maximize your investment the best deal out there is to join the SU! family!
