Petal Cone Fun with my Downline

Yesterday evening I had the privilege of hosting another downline stamp and chat night. I invited my downline (team members) over for a relaxed evening of chit chat and stamping! I adore these women and we always have a blast when we get together.

The point of these evenings is to discuss business ideas and to be inspired by everyones creativity. We also decided to have a card swap which I just love because I am continually amazed with the works of art everyone comes up with!

My upline used to offer downline stamp nights and I just loved attending them (I still do!) - it is so nice to be able to go, relax and stamp a project...one I didn't have to prep!.  Yes, I love my job as a demonstrator, but sometimes it's nice to be able to just sit down and stamp a project that has already been figured out and precut for me! ;) SO, of course I knew I wanted to offer my own downline the same opportunity.


What to be inspired too? I thought I'd share with you the projects we stamped and the card swaps I received!!!


Both projects I offered use our new Petal Cone Bigz L Die for the Big Shot. The first is a cute little carrot pocket card - perfect for a small little Easter message or treat to be tucked inside.

The adorable bunny is punched out using a variety of our great punches! Isn't he just the cutest little thing????  (Just ignore the crooked whiskers and glue smudge!) ;)

The second project we stamped is this great little "take-out" style box. Yup, it's still made with the Petal Cone die, but with a few extra cuts and score lines (SO super quick and simple!) it changes the shape into a great little treat box!

We decorated it with some of our new Sneak Peek Paisley Petals Designer Series Paper.

This paper will be in our upcoming Idea Book & Catalogue in July, but during our April Spring is Blossoming Promotion, with every $25 order, you're eligible to purchase this sneak peek product!!! (Or Host a $460* workshop and get the Four Frames Set and Paisley Petals Designer Series Paper for FREE). Check out additional details here!


Of course the box wouldn't have been complete without a coordinating tag!  The tag uses a variety of punches including the new (and ADORABLE!) Extra-Large Build a Cupcake Punch.  Love it!

I'm still taking pictures of the swap cards I received, so check back tomorrow to see what everyone came up with...GORGEOUS!!!!

If you're interested in joining us at these stamp nights (and many of the other demonstrator stamping events we attend) definitely let me know.  I would love to share the Stampin' Up! business opportunity with you and have you on our team!

Happy Stamping!
