Welcome to my stamping blog

Hello Everyone,

I have finally started a blog dedicated to stamping, scrapbooking and other wonderful paper crafting projects created with the beautiful stamp sets and accessories that are offered exclusively through Stampin' Up!. I thought that with the release of the new Fall-Winter 2008 Idea Book & Catalog by Stampin' Up! it would be the best time to start sharing additional creativity with all of you. I will try to makes updates to this blog as frequently as possible.

I attended my first Stampin' Up! Convention at the beginning of August and I learned many fabulous new techniques and project ideas to share. One of the new products that Stampin' Up! will be offering is an exclusive Sizzix Bigz Shot Die Cut Machine. With the launch of this die cut machine and exclusive Stampin' Up! dies, you can take you paper crafting hobby to a new level. This machine not only works with cardstock and designer series papers, but also with chipboard, felt, fabric, metals and I can keep going on and on. Keep checking this blog to see what I will be creating.

Another great new feature that Stampin' Up! is offering is die cut stamp sets. All of the new stamps introduced in the Fall-Winter 2008 Idea Book and Catalog are die cut. Look for the die cut symbol next to the item number and price of each stamp set. This will reduce the time it takes to assemble your new stamps.

The new 2008-2009 In-Colors are beautiful. The colors are: Kiwi Kiss, Tangerine Tango, Pacific Blue, Baja Breeze, Pink Pirouette and Riding Hood Red. I will be posting cards created with these new in-colors over the next few days, so keep checking this blog.

Thanks for reading my first blog post and I hope that you return to see all the creativity that I will be sharing in "Sarah's Stamping Corner".

Happy Stamping,

Sarah
