Copy Stampin' Up! catalog samples for fun and easy card making! Tutorial shared by Darla Olson at inkheaven

Have you really looked at your Occasions Catalog and noticed how many great card samples there are to copy?

Balloon Adventures has a wonderful display of cards to copy!

I have copied this card. A bunch! I have all my February birthday cards made and except for the hand-written message, they are ready to send out!

My photography skills are not quite up to par with the creatives at Stampin’ Up! But I will share my card rendition all the same! Here it is! Aren’t you impressed? Since I have done all the leg work of figuring out supplies and dimensions, I have put together a tutorial with all of that information for you! Use the supply list on the tutorial to help you place your order.

If you need a little more than a tutorial, I did stamp this card on FB Live (I had some difficulties in the beginning with my FB App. It “quit working unexpectedly” and closing on me so forgive the beginning, it has a rough start as I went live on my tablet to let everyone know I was having tech difficulties!)

Don’t forget that you can always use the layout and switch things up a bit! Different color combinations give different looks to the same layout! Check out this great switch shared by Shannon West of Stampin’ Up! It is the same card but the switch gives it an amazing look!

Sending out some love from Inkheaven with the Remarkable Blog Hop Sale-A-Bration!

Hello Stampin’ Friends! When Janet invited me to join her blog hop; I have to admit, I felt a wee bit intimidated! It didn’t help that it is my first blog hop of this kind, either! I have given a lot of thought as to what I would be sharing on the hop. Obviously, I wanted my project to be pretty, but that is not what I was considering…

Janet just recently reached her 1 million dollars in sales achievement with Stampin’ Up! (Congratulations, Janet!). I have watched Janet for many years (she was a Rising Star in my early years). I have always loved her Remarkable logo and loved watching her wave her banner across the stage and send a little love back to the people who got her there. It was inspiring.

With the advent of blogging, Facebook, and You Tube arriving on the Stampin’ Up! scene, I’ve gotten to watch her a little more and have come to love her spirit of sharing anything Stampin’ Up! Her spirit of sharing is truly remARKable! So, I came to the conclusion that my post must have something a little more to share to make it special!

I decided that a card sending out a little love would be appropriate, so here it is:
