Fall 2015 Release Previews Day 1




Hello!  I am so excited because this is the week!  Our Fall 2015 release of 13 stamp sets and 17 die sets will be available for purchase this coming Thursday, September 3rd.  I will be showing previews all this week and we will have a fun blog hop full of inspiration from our Design Team and a fun giveaway this coming Thursday. 

I am excited to announce that a new design team member will be joining us.... Amy Kolling!  I am so thrilled that she will be joining our Design Team.  Amy was an AEI♥U Challenge member and I just adore her work!  I can't wait to see what she has in store for us.  


Hello!  My name is Amy Kolling.  I live in Topeka, Kansas with my 2 ornery kids and sweet hubby.  Beside my crafty resume, I work full time as a Dialysis RN at one of the largest clinics within the company.  I started scrapbooking nearly 20 years ago with layouts using my wedding photos.  Once I found stamping (via a Stampin' Up friend), I became a die-hard cardmaker . . . there was just something about all the matchy ink and papers that had me hook, line, and sinker!  I would not be where I am today without the amazing stamping community of friends that have encouraged me from the very beginning.  I am a CAS, with a few layers, kind of stamper but like to try all sorts of techniques that may or may not take me out of my comfort zone. 

Replacing Amy on our Challenge Team will be Ashley Marcu.  I know what you are thinking.....We are so lucky to have both of these talented ladies!!! We think so too!!!  

You can find Amy's work on her blog - http://stamp-n-paradise.blogspot.com/ .  

Ashley's blog is http://cherryhilldesign.blogspot.com/ . 
Be sure to check out what she will have in store for us on our challenge blog - http://aeiheartuchallenge.blogspot.com/ .

Loads of Inspiration from JJ & Heather




Please note that our office will be closed August 10th-14th.  All orders placed during this time will ship the week of August 17th.  We appreciate your patience during this time.

Hello!  I have some great cards to share with you today. JJ used our Tweet Tweet stamp set to create these first two cards.  I love how she stamped the birds on top of one another in this first card.  Our Dotted Borders dies create a perfect little place for them to stand.




 JJ used the perch from Tweet Tweet and a sentiment from our More Stories stamp set in this next card.  What a great combination!  I love how clever this is!





JJ used our Burst die and our now discontinued Modern Leaves stamp set to create this fun and artsy card.  I love how the bright colors pop against the white frame!


JJ turned a Burst die cut into a sun and added a sentiment from our Weather It stamp set for this next card.  I just love this idea! 




Heather used our Wonky Stitches dies and Bring On The Cake stamp and dies to create this next card.  I love how cute the cake is.  


Heather used our Scalloped Frames dies along with our Double Pierced Rectangle dies and our Bring on the Cake stamps and dies to create this last card.  I love how the dies frame the slice of cake.  They really take the card to the next level!
