Stamp Review Crew: Mixed Bunch Edition


Flowers in December, yes indeed! They are the snowflakes of summer, so why not throw a few around in the winter :)  I am sure there will be lots of techniques in the hop this time, as this set really lends itself to techniques. I love the variety of styles in this one little set. It coordinates with the Blossom punch and the 1" and ¾" Circle punches.

Stamp Review Crew: Endless Wishes

Woa! It's December already? Well, I guess that means we are all due for some holiday cheer, and for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, we are due for some snow :) Why do I make this distinction? Because we have gone international! We have a new stamper joining our Crew, Rochelle Blok. And she is from Australia!
This hop is special for another reason. It is the 1 Year Anniversary for the Stamp Review Crew! That first year just flew by.  I hope you have enjoyed what we have done so far, and that you continue to join us in the next year!
This set came out last year as a "while supplies last" photopolymer set. It sold out so fast, Stampin' Up! quickly released a digital version of it. And then it showed up again in the Holiday Mini for 2014. Boy, are we glad it did :) Get ready for lots of frosty goodness!

Stamp Review Crew: Amazing Birthday Edition

Are you ready for more inspiration and excitement?! Well, we sure are ready to bring you some great ideas for how to use this set. I just love the graphic goodness of this set! There are stripes and dots, rays and blocks, and awesome fonts abound :) The circles all punch out beautifully with the 1¼" Circle punch, and the banners coordinate with the Banners framelits. So many possibilities!


I am sure you are ready to go check it all out, so here is the map for our hop :)

Stamp Review Crew: Serene Silhouettes Edition


Fall is in full swing, and what a beautiful season it is! This set always reminds me of fall, and has so many occasions it will work for. I have found that it works well for sympathy cards too, and those are always hard for me.

Stamp Review Crew: Work of Art Edition

Here we are again with a stamp set that was wildly popular when the new Annual Catalog came out this summer. It is still a fabulous set! I love the way it compliments so many other sets, and how it is so versatile!

Stamp Review Crew: Truly Grateful Edition

It is crisp and delicious out right now, and we are all starting our Autumn projects. What better time to pull out this set and play with it again! It was new in the Holiday Min in 2013 and carried over into the Annual Catalog for 2014-15, which made me so very happy! I love this set :) There are just a few images in it, but they are so much fun to use.

We are about to show you at least a dozen fabulous projects with this woodsy set.

Stamp Review Crew: Mosaic Madness Edition

Wow, the kids are almost all back in school and the sun is going down faster every night! I hope everyone has enjoyed the last hooray of this summer season :) We are back with another hop full of inspiration for you. So, go grab a cup of coffee, tea, or diet coke and settle in for a good time!

Mosaic Madness is a fun set you can use for any occasion, on any kind of project. It is what I call on element stamp set, meaning it is a graphic image with no specific holiday, occasion, event, gender, or age attached to it.

Now it is time to see what everyone has created!

    Stamp Review Crew: Flower Patch Edition

    Welcome back! We are featuring Flower Patch this time, and it is the second set that we used on our Display Board for convention this year. So if you were at convention, now you get to see the projects up close, and a few that just wouldn't fit on the board :)

    We don't usually feature a brand new set, but we made an exception for convention. Even for a group of our size, 40-50 projects with just one set would have been just a little too limiting :) This is a set that almost all of us ended up getting, and had already been planning to get, and it had those wonderful coordinating framelits! Then, right before convention, the MDS version came out too. Be still my heart!

    Stamp Review Crew: Lovely as a Tree Edition

     Hello Stampers! It's time for another round of inspiration from the Stamp Review Crew. This may be the first visit for many of you, as we were lucky enough to be picked to do a display board at convention this year and you may have seen that board while you were at convention. We would love it if you left a comment on this post letting us know that is how you found us, and what you think of our little project :)
    This time, we are featuring the consummate old-but-still-current stamp set. Once upon a time, Shelli Gardner said (maybe jokingly) that Lovely as a Tree will never retire because it is consistently the best selling stamp set every year. I don't know it that still holds true, but I can say that it is a stamp set that just does not seem to lose it's appeal :) We thought it was the perfect set for us to feature on our display board. We had to make 40-50 projects, so we did feature a new stamp set too, and we will have a blog hop with that set so you can see those projects as well, but this time, we are going to show you all of the projects from the display board, and a few that there weren't room for, lol!


    All but one of our crew owns this set. And you are about to see why :)
