A Good Egg Tic Tac Treat for Easter for #MyStampingFriends using #StampinUp

A Good Egg Tic Tac Treat
#StampinUp #MyStampingFriends Rose-Ellen Eastman

Good Morning My Stamping Friends,

Today I'm sharing my 3D swap I made in mid January for a Leadership event I attended in Lancing, MI. I'm calling this one A Good Egg Tic Tac Treat. Isn't he the cutest?  I know he's going to be a hit when my daughters hand them out to friends at school, or leave one on the teacher's desk.

I started with Stampin' Up! Soft Sky for the base that was 2 x 8-1/2 inches and scored it at just under 4 inches from each side. The Tic Tac container is 5/8 of an inch wide so scoring it that way allowed the bottom to be flat with the Tic Tac container inside. Then I used the Scalloped Tag Topper punch on each end and punched a 1 inch circle just above the fold mark on one side. I used the Owl Builder punch and Daffodil Delight card stock for the chick, trimmed off the 'ears' and added a 'foot' as a feather to the top of his head. His eyes and beak came from the same punch and his wings were started out as a 1 inch circle and I used the circle punch to trim two wings from the circle. The cracked egg at the bottom is from the Frozen Treats Framelit dies and the sentiment is from the Sale-A-Bration item called Hey, Chick (which can be yours for FREE with a $50 purchase - more info on that below). and finished it off with some white 1/8 grosgrain ribbon from the Sending Love Ribbon Combo Pack. I got the mini packs of Tic Tacs at my local Dollar Tree store and used a glue dot on the back to hold it in place.

If you make one of these Good Egg Tic Tac Treats, post a photo on my Facebook Page called My Stamping Friends so I can see your version.  

A list of supplies is at the bottom of this post, and during Sale-A-Bration promotion (until March 31, 2017) if you spend $50 on ANY product at my online store using this month's HOSTESS CODE 6GXAJGH9 you'll get to choose one of our Sale-A-Bration products from HERE or HERE COMPLETELY FREE.

Hope you have a fantastic week,
Rose-Ellen

P.S. Here are some more photos from the Leadership event. We had such a fun time.

Awesome Presenter line up for the My Stamping Friends' Northern Virginia Regional 8/23/2014 #NOVAStampingFriends

Can you believe these awesome presenters for the My Stamping Friends' Northern Virginia Regional on August 23,2014?!?!?  I'm posting them here for anyone that missed the announcements on my business facebook page.

Sallie Fisher has been a demonstrator since 1996….yup, 1996!  She hails from Pennsylvania but now lives in Mt. Jackson, VA. She considers herself a Clean and Simple stamper and has always been passionate about 3D items. At this event she will be presenting and demonstrating 3D items and gift items that are easy, fun and duplicatable. 

 

 

Rita Lin is joining us from New Market, VA, where she grew up on a farm and where she still lives. Rita joined Stampin’ Up! in 2010 and says she’s an eclectic stamper. Sometimes she stamps ‘clean and simple’ but more often her projects are a little bit fussy. She LOVES to make 3D items and cards. Today she is sharing how to use the Big Shot to make a beautiful Bag Tag complete with a Spiral Flower.

 

 

Stephanie DiGiovanni is from Center Valley, PA and joined Stampin’ Up! in 2011. Stephanie considers herself a simple style stamper and she LOVES anything she can put through the Big Shot because she says “anyone can create easily, no matter what crafting experience they have.”  She loves Stampin’ Up! because they accept her, and everyone, with open arms & she loves the support, relationships and family she has made because of joining Stampin’ Up!

 

Lisa Key joined Stampin’ Up! in the spring of 2014 when she joined Stephanie’s team She has already promoted and grown her business and feels amazing about that. Lisa loves the card kits, the personalized stamps and everything that Stampin’ Up! has to offer. She’s coming to this event from Smith Mountain Lake, VA so let’s welcome her to the My Stamping Friends’ Northern Virginia Regional event.

 

 

Stephanie DiGiovanni and Lisa Key are co-presenters at this event. Together they make a great team and they are going to show us how they embodied the Stampin’ Up ! Statement of the Heart by sharing what they love with their friends & they’ll give you some ideas on how you can find more friends to stamp with too.

 

Melody Tess Rollins signed up to become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator in 2001. Her love for sending cards and gift-giving married both her graphic design skills and Stampin' Up! products perfectly. Melody Tess went from the simplicity of inks, stamps, and paper to currently loving embossing folders, punches, and Big Shot framelits & dies for quick projects in her 'simple elegance' style. "People are on the go all the time. I can show them that it really doesn't take very long to create awesome without leaving their home." Melody Tess happily and currently resides with her husband in Northern Virginia.   

 

 

Michelle Suit joins us from Manassas, VA. She has been a demonstrator for 4 years and during that time she has gained quite a following for her punch art creations. She says she does the ‘”Stampin’ Happy Dance” when new punches and framelits are released because she loves using these things in new and innovative ways (ways they may not have been designed for), and honestly we love it when she does that too!  Michelle made her Stampin’ Up! Convention presentation debut in July 2014 when she presented at the annual convention on the Main Stage.

 

 

 

Shannon West joins us from Pleasant Grove, Utah where she has worked at the Stampin’ Up! corporate office for 10+ years as well as being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator.  She is going to share some of her ‘favorite things’ with us including the Undefined Stamps, Four Feathers stamp set & Feathers Framelits Dies as well as Paper Pumpkin, and I just know you’re going to love everything she brings to the table.

You can find the details on my business page www.facebook.com/MyStampingFriends or on the My Stamping Friends' Northern Virginia Regional event page at www.facebook.com/events/312656428908181 or you can search for our hashtag #NOVAStampingFriends on Google, Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram to see lots of the photos of the event as they are posted by me and by the attendees.
