I'm back!

After an amazing week in Alaska on the Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip*, I finally made it home at 2 AM this morning. Now I'm catching up on emails, unpacking, and tackling what can only be described as a mountain of laundry.

As I get settled back in, I'll be sharing some photos from the trip this week. Alaska was absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to show you some of the highlights.

But first... FREE SHIPPING!

From June 11-13, Stampin' Up! is offering FREE SHIPPING on qualifying orders of $75 or more. If you've been building a wish list, now is the perfect time to grab those items you've had your eye on.

And don't forget—qualifying orders can also add my June Product of the Month for just $5.

So tell me... what's on your wish list?

Good Morning

Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.

A few of you have asked how to actually use the Crafty Color Magic tool, so I made a quick step-by-step video walking you through it.

And honestly? I’m glad you asked.

Because this is not a PDF. It is not a chart. It is not a list of colors you have to scroll through and figure out on your own.

It is an interactive tool.

You can tell it what kind of card you want to make, and it will help suggest Stampin’ Up! color combinations. Then you can keep asking questions, like what to use for the card base, what color the layers should be, or whether it can give you a softer, brighter, more masculine, or more elegant option.

That is the beauty of it.

You do not have to sit there staring at your cardstock wondering what in the world goes together. We have all done that. Yes, even experienced cardmakers. Color block is real, and she is rude.

So if you grabbed the Crafty Color Magic tool but were not quite sure what to do next, this video is for you.

Watch the quick demo, then open the tool and just try it. Start simple. Ask for colors for a birthday card, thank you card, sympathy card, masculine card, or whatever you are working on.

The more specific you are, the better it can help.
