Celebrating 7 Years & Starting Something New!

July 4, 2023July 4, 2023 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 7 Comments

Happy 4th of July! Seven years ago today (July 4, 2016) I stepped out of my comfort zone and started this blog. I couldn’t have done it without the help and support from my family! My wonderful daughter set up my blog and encouraged me to share!

Today I am stepping put of my comfort zone again and I need your help! I started a facebook business page. Many people have asked about purchasing my seashell crafts. I plan to post these items on my facebook page and would love for you to help spread the word. Please like my page and share with your facebook friends and family. I love to create trinket dishes, candles, wine stoppers, napkin rings, angels, and more with shells! These make great gifts for friends, family, hostess, etc. I have posted some of these on my blog HERE, HERE, and HERE. I have given many as gifts and use them all over my house for decor and more.

Here’s the link to my facebook business page: https://www.facebook.com/juststampin

I have enjoyed creating and sharing my cards & 3D projects with you on my blog the past 7 years. I always appreciate when others take the time to comment. I read each and every one! I had 9 comments (counting 2 from my family LOL) on my first blog post. (You can Click HERE to view my first post.) I’d love to send a little something to the people who commented and inspired me to keep creating and sharing! So….Rosemarie, Linda Rizzo, Elisha, Ellen, Nancy Farrell, and Rosanne….email me (j.stark@goeaston.net) your address and I will pop a little something in the mail to you. FYI…I know Nancy and Rosanne are still following me as they have become close friends over the past 7 years! Rosanne joined my team and she is so talented!!! You can check out her blog at heartfeltstamping.com. Here’s a fun project she created which is quick & easy for the 4th of July. Click HERE or on the image below to view her post for all the details.

I am forever grateful to Stampin’ Up! for bringing so many wonderful people in to my life! I joined to get the discount and never expected my hobby to turn in to so much more!!!!!! Thank you to everyone who has inspired me to continue on this journey! Creating handmade cards & gifts and sharing them with others makes a difference. I like to think I can make someone smile today! 🙂

Stampin' Up! ABC Color Series - visit juststampin.com for color inspiration and color combinations from A to Z - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Welcome to my ABC Color Series! Stampin’ Up! offers so many great color choices! I love to combine different colors and patterns and hope to inspire you with some fun color combinations throughout this series. Today’s project features two new colors in the core collection: Berry Burst and Bubble Bath. Berry Burst is a former In Color returning as part of the Brights Collection. Bubble Bath is a soft pink color that is a new addition to the Stampin’ Up! Subtles Collection. Let’s take a look at each of these colors in comparison to some other colors.

Berry Burst and Bubble Bath pair well together and you can pop many other colors with them. I used the Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper to create a fun little birthday box bag and tag.

Customer Thank You Gifts & NEW Color Coach

May 31, 2023May 31, 2023 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 11 Comments

I like to tuck a little something in with my customer thank you cards each month.This is a quick & easy project. It’s all about a fun presentation.
Stampin' Up! 2023-2025 In Colors Customer gift idea with Bough Punch and Beautiful Balloons Dies-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This gift packaging idea can be used for teacher gifts, hostess gifts, etc. I cut the patterned paper 4 1/4″ x 6″ and folded it in half to fit inside a Stampin’ Up! clear envelope. You could slip tea bags, a pack of gum, a large Peppermint Patty, gift card, etc. in between the DSP. Then simply fold the envelope flap over, peel, and adhere. I made a simple tag using the Beautiful Balloons Dies and tied some of the 2023 In Color twine with a punched leaf and popped it up with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment is from the Sentimental Park stamp set.

I wanted to share the new In Colors with my customers and gift something I use all the time…

I love my Color Swatches! It’s a great tool for seeing what colors look good together when planning a project.

The cardstock measures 2 3/4 x 4 1/4. This is the perfect size to adhere the Color Coach on the back.

I cut the color coach apart and adhere on the back of the color swatch. I organize them on a binder ring by rainbow color. I update each year with the new In Colors. This is one of my most used tools when creating!
