Today I thought it would be fun to share my San Antonio OnStage Swaps and 3D Swaps I brought home. It always so fun to swap with fellow demonstrators and look through them all once you get back home. These ladies are very talented and so inspiring!
I personally did 80 card front and 55 3D swaps so I came home with A LOT. :)
The easiest way to show them all was in a video.
So I hope you take a few minutes to check them out!
I look forward to being back with you on Wednesday featuring the April 2019 Paper Pumpkin kit. I just LOVE this month's kit!
Also, Stampin' Up! shared a sneak peek of the May 2019 kit which was inspired by Shelli Gardner, Board Chair & CoFounder of Stampin' Up!.
I'm back from San Antonio OnStage and what fun it was!! Stampin' Up! OnStage occur in April and November. These events are packed full of presentations on new products, demonstrator recognition, training and of course crafting!! Check out some of my favorite pictures from the event. Plus, a little unboxing video of some new goodies!

Stay tuned for my next video showcasing all of the swaps I received from this trip!
As I prepare to attend Stampin' Up!'s OnStage event next weekend, I decided to do some 3D swaps. My regular card swaps are already done but wanted to do some more as I'm attending another event on Friday hosted by Stampin' Up! demos. The dimensions for this swap were shared by a fellow demonstrator so I changed up the sentiment, ribbon etc to make it my own. Aren't they the cutest?! The are pretty tiny but these Reese's Easter Eggs I found fit perfectly! The Gingham Gala paper gives it that Easter feel but the sentiment is perfect for the audience I'm sharing with. I made them in the Gingham Gala colors and paired the Organdy Sale-A-Bration combo pack with some Whisper White twine.
Here are the dimensions:
Base: 2 1/4 x 6, score on 6" side at 1/2, 1 3/4, 2 1/4, and 3 1/2.
I rounded the corners with the Detailed Trio Punch
Gingham Gala DSP Pieces: 1 - 2 1/8 x 2 1/8, 1 - 2 1/8 x 1 1/8, 1 - 2 1/8 x 3/8
Burnish all score lines, adhere the DSP to base and then die cut your oval.
Use Tear & Tape on 1/2 piece to adhere box together.
I hope you had a great weekend! Mine was very busy which is typical for me but I was actually able to get my swaps done for the upcoming April OnStage event. I had no plans to do that this weekend but somehow managed to get it done!
Stampin' Up! offers events to current demonstrators a couple times a year and the next one is in April. This OnStage event is a 1-day but most make it into a weekend crafting spectacular! I'm actually heading to the San Antonio location which is super exciting as I've never been to Texas. So, I am making it a long weekend and attending some local stamping events too!
During these events, you can swap with other demonstrators. Swapping is SO much fun because you get to come home with a TON of card design ideas!!
These events are also open to all demos so if you've been considering joining Stampin' Up! now is the time!!!! Plus, the starter kit options are the BEST YET!!

Now let's get to the fun part...My Swaps!
I typically create about a 100 but was able to manage 80 this time.
I do it mass production style so do the cutting, punching, stamping all at one time.
Once everything is done...assembly begins.
Yep, I embossed all 80 of those whisper white layers.
I wanted to use our gorgeous Strong & Beautiful stamp set on these and love all the sentiments you can choose from. I love giving people options.
What do you think? I'm pretty happy with the outcome and actually feel a little ahead for once! I popped up all those sentiments with 4 Stampin' Dimensionals. Supply List:
