Stampin' with U: Gallary

I hear a lot that people find it hard to do Male cards...The secret is...

TEXTURE.... Create some kind of texture - by layers.. Stamping... Embossing Ripping, Punching, daubering or crumpling your card stock...
EMBELLISH - Embellish with metal chunky bits.. or buttons... Go easy on the bows and glitter
COLOUR - Choose strong colours... Man cards in pastel just seem a little feminine.. ;P

Why I love Stampin' UP!

I Started Stamping & Scraping when my first Child was born in 2000... I had so much trouble finding the "RIGHT" embellishments and papers to go together.. It was often a 3 day chore to run around to all the scrapbook places I knew of to find them! I was so stuck in a rut.. and board with the lack of variety and wasted time. I was collecting stamps... but not using them because cleaning them at the sink with a tooth brush got tiresome and messy!! And totally broke my creative mojo!!! Then I was introduced to Stampin' UP! at a friends workshop... I was the guest that said.. "Oh I have so much stuff at home that I just don't use now!! I don't need anymore"!!! You know the whinging type... Yep it was me to a tee!! Well I bought the Stampin' Scrub... I could see a use for that... LOVED LOVED LOVED IT!!! Then I went to another Workshop at the same friends a few months later.. I loved the Stampin' Pastels. I have wanted some for quite a while.. and these ones had twice as many colours in them as the ones I had seen in the shops.. and for HALF THE PRICE!!! "That's mine!" I said... THEN>>> I booked a workshop... I realised this time that I Loved the perfect images Stampin' UP! stamps would do every time!!! I had 16 friends attend my first workshop! I achieved over $700 in sales.. and I am sure at least $200 was my order alone!!! I WANT better images!!! Signing up was a great Idea!! Soon after that I signed in May 2007... And I strongly believe I will never look back!!! * I love the fact that I can create beautiful projects. * I love the fact that I can work around my family's events * I love the fact that I belong to the BEST EVER Stampin' UP! team - The PaperANGELS * I love the fact that I am now surrounded by beautiful people each and every day, who share my passion of all things crafty!!! * I love the fact that being a Stampin' UP! demonstrator provides me with the tools to help others, be involved in their lives (sometimes in a very personal way), make new friends, And have a GREAT time!!! I am having a blast!!! I would love help you out and to bring some of that JOY your way!!!------------------- Love Ursula JOY James---------------- Ph 0410 602 916 Email naturallyu01@hotmail.com
