New products and another giveaway

Hello!

Welcome back.  This is fun giving stuff away.  Making people smile is contagious. :)

So, today, I thought I would hook ya up with some goodness from Stampin' Up.  I love Stampin' Up.  Why?  Many reasons.  A big one?  Because they create new stamp addicts everyday.  They go into people's homes and share the love of stamping.  Can't get much better than that.  And, their stamps are made in the US, like many of my other favorite stamp companies (Hero Arts, A Muse, Stampers Anonymous, etc.)

Here are a couple cards I created with some of their new products from their summer mini catalog.    These hearts make my heart pitter patter.  They are cling ("clear mount") stamps.  (Did you know they have those now?) The border of words is actually part of a Jumbo Builder Wheel set.  (Which, by the way, I am giving away below!)  You just load it up on a roller and roll onto the card for a fun border...

Supplies: Stampin' Up stamps (I {Heart} Hearts, Itty Bitty Shape heart, Whimsical Words greeting, Thoughtful Friend Wheel) and heart punch; EK Success border punch; Hero Arts inks and notecard and pearls and flower; Neenah white paper; Rock Candy Distress Stickles (center of flower)

Here is another super simple card I did with a new set from Stampin' Up.  The cool thing about these Itty Bitty BIts stamps is that they have Itty Bitty Shape punches that are the perfect size for them.  So cool.  However, I decided to make my circles bigger and use a 1/2" circle punch instead...

Supplies: Stampin' Up stamps (Itty Bitty Shape heart, Whimsical Words greeting), inks and punches;  Hero Arts notecard; Neenah white paper; White embossing powder; Versamark

So... that first card used a wheel to stamp the border.  Stampin' Up has new builder wheels that lets you stack one, two or three wheels together on one jumbo handle to create great backgrounds.  Well, I have a set for you!  This includes everything you need to get creating. 

Just leave a comment here by Sunday the 9th at 11:59pmEST telling me if you are a cardmaker, scrapbooker or both... and you may win these goodies...

See you tomorrow with another giveaway.  Remember to comment on Monday and Tuesday's posts too if you haven't yet.

Take care.

Thanks for a chance at a great giveaway. I am a scrapbooker for about 5 years now. I am enjoying every moment I am in my room creating. Love all your videos. Thanks for the inspiration you give us on a daily basis.

[Jean]

I love to do both, started out cardmaking but now I love both.

[Tammy C]

I like cardmaking & scrapbooking, but I tend to make cards more. I can always find time to whip up a cute card. When I have more time (ha!) I will scrapbook.
Thanks for the give away. I LOVE Stampin Up and would LOVE to win!

[Shalini]

Hi, i am based in India and enjoy both card making and scrapbooking... card making is my first love and am setting my foot (or shud i say hands...lolzzz) in scrapbooking slowly...

Thanks so much for this lovely giveaway:)

Hugs

Thanks for the chance to win those nice products.
I am a card maker, with no inspiration, at the moment.

[caroline]

omg so cute! i love stamping and aspire to scrapbooking but am too intimidated by the wide expanse of 12" to start . . .

[Christine]

I love them both and have been making cards and scrapbook pages for 13 years. I have never used the SU wheel and would love the opportunity. Thanks again for the greaet examples!

[Judi]

I have always thought of mysef as a scrapbooker more than a cardmaker, but latey blogs like yours have inspired me to make more cards.

[Maureen Chandler]

Hi Jennifer, I am a card maker and have been stamping for about 11 years! I just love it and would welcome the opportunity to win! Thanks for sharing your wonderful techniques and cards!!

[doris]

I make 500 cards a year, but who's counting. That doesn't include the ones I design for my classes. Your blog offers lots of ideas--thanks!

[Cindy Strickland]

I am a scrapbooker first and use my scraps to make cards. I tend to stamp on my cards more than my scrapbook pages though. Love that you work for the stamp store that got me started so many years ago. Stamp your Art Out was my first exposure to stamping back in 1993. I live in London, UK now but still visit when I am in the US.

[Be(e)]

Thanks for this chance to win, Jennifer!! I love SU, I've always loved their style. Infortunately, SU is not available in my country, unless I order internationally. So I'm really crossing my fingers on this one ;)

[Denise M.]

I started out as a scrapbooker but was sucked into the world of card making and stamping when I was introduced to Stampin Up and Splitcoaststampers! I love them both like my 2 children!

[Michelle]

I am more of a card maker, I love that they dont take long to ake and that you can make someone smile with them:-)

[Sue S]

I have been a scrapbooker for about 10 years. Just starting to delve into card making. I would love it if you could incorporate some of these techniques into scrapbook pages. Sometimes I have a hard time translating these things onto a page.

[Cyndi H.]

I am both, a scrapbooker and a cardmaking, but I spend more time making cards. I have been making cards since I was little using anything I had. I have been making cards and scrapbook pages using products specifically for cards and an scrapbook for about 7 years. Most of the things I make are for other people as gifts. I love making handmade things for people!! I have always wanted to try Stampin' up products. I have not had the opportunity yet, but I have heard that they are awesome :)

[Rhonda Midyett]

Hi, I am new at scrapbooking, I crafted my first scrapbook for my youngest daughter's graduation, I was hooked , then went on to create other books for my daughter who graduated from her air force tech school! Then I found you on you tube. I got my daughters hooked and now we make cards , mini books and the list goes on. I want to thank you for all you do to inspire all of us in this wonderful world of crafting. Proud Air Force mom, and proud mom of a wonderful son and my youngest daughter! Rhonda

[kristal]

Thanks for the chance to win some great products! I've never used SU products before, this would be awesome to try them out. Thanks for sharing the summery card, I love it. GREAT inspiration!

[Joanne VW]

Love Stampin'Up stuff:) And I love what you come up with...

[Nancy]

Love, love, love Stampin Up. My niece got me hooked on them. I have several jumbo wheels but no mini wheels YET. Hope to have the chance for these ones my creative juices are running already. GREAT INSPIRATION JENNIFER. Thanks.

[katherineee]

Thanks for the chance to win. I m a big fan to Stampin' up! I start making cards three years ago. And this year I start scrapbooking!The reason I turn to scrapboking is because I want to keep my fav. paper, my fav. technique, my fav. color into a binder. you know, each time you create something, when you looked back, you would have different feeling on the time you create, things happened around you on that time. thats why i turned to scrapbook. Of course I am both now!

[Sheri Crowley]

LOVE the tiny little hearts!

[Therese]

Thanks for the great giveaways!!!!

My husband tells everyone that my stamping (card making) is an obsession and my scrapbooking is a very wonderful hobby!

Love Stampin Up and all stamps....they make me so happy just looking at all the images.

[Brenda U]

I am constantly amazed at how you can make simple creations look out of this world! Love the tiny heart stamp and the stamping wheel, (which I have never tried before). Having just moved to the US I think I might give Stampin' Up a try as they really have some awesoe products which will be very, very handy in my card making and scrapbooking. Thanks again for the inspiration Jennifer.

[Shir Benovich]

The card is so sweet!! Love the simplicity of it!!
The giveaway is awesome! Thanks for the chance :-)
I opened a twitter few days ago and I follow you there also, going to retweet!

[Suzzi]

This are the best cards ever! I mean I truly do love your cards, but these ones the color was so vibrant that I would just cry if it was the card in the mail box. That would beat any prize.

Thanks for blogging, chances and your reality tv updats.

[Sarah M]

Fabulous cards, Jennifer! You ALWAYS amaze me. :)

[Dana H]

I scrap and make cards, love doing both! This would be an awesome tool to use, thanks so much for the opportunity! Your cards are so sweet and adorable. Love 'em!

[Cynthia]

Love it! I started scrapbooking 7 years ago, and soon figured out that it was way more fun (and sorta cost effective) to make my own cards! Thanks so much for these fantastic giveaways!

[Courtney]

I started out as just a scrapper, but card making now takes up most of my time. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Created-By-Courtney/267668277666

[Pam Spradlin]

I am both a scrapbooker and card maker. But I actually think that I like the card making process better. I love making packets of cards to give to friends to use. It makes me feel like I am using my stash.

[Kelly]

I do both. I love using my leftover scrapbooking supplies to make cards so there's few leftovers. Stampin' Up is great quality. I've had some of their inks for probably 7 yrs and I'm still using them (love the SPOTS) and their stamps are awesome! Still stamping clear as a bell for over 7 years!

[Stacey]

I am both a cardmaker and a scrapper. So fun!

[Connie Petertonjes]

That wheel looks much cooler than the old wheel, which I have and haven't used in like 12 years!

Thanks for the giveaway!

[Angel Estes]

Wonderful giveaway! I started out a scrapbooker, and still dabble in it, but I mostly make cards now. They make people smile!! :)

[Betty]

i have been making cards for over 10 years - ever since i discovered stampin' up and hero arts (which i use the most) - altho lately i use papertrey ink more and more. thanks for a chance to win the stampin' up wheel - looks like fun.

[christina b~indiana]

OMGOSH! I LOVE Stampin Up!
I started out scrapbooking, but now i am an avid cardmaker...i love the look on the recipiants face when they see the cards.

[Shannon]

Well my first love is scrapbooking but I have been bit by the card making bug. I really enjoy it. I have never used stampin' up products...looks like lots of fun. thanks for the chance to win.

I started stamping with Stampin up! The new wheels look fun!

What a fun giveaway - thanks for a chance to win! I am both a scrapbooker and a card maker, though my efforts have been geared more toward cards now (I make them for OWH). Cards take just a bit less time than 2-page spreads, so it's more "instant gratification" for me :)

[Karen W.]

Thank you for sharing!! I'm big into scrapbooks and making cards to uplift my family and friends. It brings such joy when they enjoy the cards. Would love to use the wheels. That's one thing I haven't dabbled in, but would love to try.

[Charlotte D]

So cute!

[Joyce M]

This is like Christmas every day of the week. Fun - even if I never win! Best of luck to everyone

Hi Jennifer,

I'm a cardmaker, but should be a scrapbooker too -- I have grandchildren. I thought scrapbooking would be like doing bulletin boards (I'm a former teacher), but it doesn't work for me.

I read your blog almost daily. Wish I lived closer so I could take a class from you.

[Mary Duffek]

Great cards! Love them both. The first one is all about layers and gotta love that, with all the extra details you added and the second one is CAS. Totally inspired me. Blessings!

[~Tonya]

Goo Morning Jennifer,

I too love the fact that Stampin Up is made in the US (along with others)! Your cards are so sweet. I have never used the roller stamps, ever and I really like the way they look on your cards.

I would say I am a card maker. I love to make cards. I have done a couple of layouts, but I tend to always go back to card making.

Have a great day.
~Tonya

[Carissa]

I am both a cardmaker and a scrapbooker. Lately thanks to the thinking inking classes that you ran last year I find myself turning to my stamps a lot more frequently. Thans for all the inspiration and the great chance to win.

[Deb]

Cardmaker... although my friends try to convert me at the yearly 'scrapbook weekend' but then they ohh & ahhh at my cards! While I'm ohhing & ahhing at their pages!
I too love SU. They are how I got hooked originally.
Thanks for all these fun giveaways!

[Jane]
