10/5 My 1000th blog post!! World Card Making Day Snowflake Soiree & Festive Flurry Clear-Mount Bundle, Blog Candy, Believe Card

Good Evening Friends!  

It's World Card Making Day and I'm certainly in the mood to celebrate!  Today also marks a very special milestone for my blog, my 1000th post!  I have been a Stampin' Up! demonstrator for 7 years and my life has been blessed over and over because of my connection with so many wonderful, vibrant women who build each other up in ways that go WAY past the craft table. 

Thank you to all of those who believe in me and always support my business!  I am so blessed to know so many of you!


So, tonight I'm offering blog candy!!  Leave me a comment and tell me what your FAVORITE Stampin' Up product is and how you've been using it lately! 

In a day or two, I will draw a random winner to receive this prize, a Festive Flurry Clear-Mount Bundle ($46.95 US) value. 

This pretty card above was made with the Snowflake Soiree Clear Mount stamp set and a few accessories.  We also used very vanilla cardstock, Champagne Glimmer Paper, a soft suede ink pad and some self adhesive pearls.  

All the snowflakes were cut using the festive flurry framelits and the big shot.  Thanks so much for your support!  I'm so happy to be your stampin up demonstrator.  

Love,




Selene Kempton

Congrats! Selene, because of you, I became a demonstrator and grew up with Stampin' Up! products to make cards for the Troops through Operation Write Home.

Last week, I liked playing with Backyard Basics. I am going to play with the poinsettia stamp set. Real Red and Gold embossed color combiation!

Thank you so much for your help and support. Love you.

What an awesome milestone, Selene! Congratulations!! I have been following your blog for quite a while and am often inspired to re-create many of your samples.

Stampin Up has so many great products, it's hard to choose a favorite. Right now, I have to go with the Envelope Punch Board. Love making card keeper boxes and the mini file folders are all the rave!!

Thanks for sharing your inspiration with all of us these past 1,000 posts. Look forward to the next 1,000!!

So excited about your 1000th post i forgot to say what my favorite product is. I just started playing with my punchboard and love it but I think the Magnetic Platform is still rocking my socks the most. :)

Congratulations on seven years and 1,000 blog posts too! How exciting for you! My favorite SU product has to be hands down is their card stock , but my most fav is Whisper White, I love how it feels! But of course I love how everything corrinates too! Mary KW554

Mary said...

Oh, I don't know how the 554 got on my name, ugh, sorry

Congrats on your 1000th blog, LOVE the card today ;) It's really hard to choose one thing with SU, they just keep getting better ;) My most favorite for now would be the framelits, especially with matching stamps.
Thanks for a chance to win the blog candy!

I really love your blog! I have been using Dazzling Diamonds like it may disappear tomorrow. It is all over my house at this point!

Oh yes, it is in my camper, too! I was using Dazzling Diamonds on the project I worked on while camping this weekend! LOL!

Your card is beautiful!
Congratulations on your 1000th post! What an achievement!
Thank you for sharing your work to inspire is your followers.
My favorite product is usually the newest one. The envelope maker is the current favorite but it doesn't pass up the magnetic platform! That one just saves so much time and frustration!
Best wishes on your next 1000!

Wow...1,000 posts is amazing...congratulations! I'd have to say that my favorite product is the stampamajig. If I didn't have it, I doubt that any of my stamped images would be straight! I use it on a regular basis.

I think my absolute favorite SU products to use are the luscious ribbons and embossing folders.
