Swaps from OnStage
I'm at the final day of Stampin' Up! OnStage event n Salt Lake City and I've finally completed all of my swapping. I participated in both organized and ad hoc swapping with my fellow demonstrators. We swapped cards in the aisles waiting for events to being, during lunch at the Convention Center, before and after classes where we saw new products coming out this Spring, and at the hotel. Swapping starts early. I saw swapping on the plane from Houston to Salt Lake City, swaps on the Express Shuttle to the Hotel and more swaps in the lobby of the Marriott where I'm staying.
Stampin' Up! demonstrators love to swap cards! Its a great way to meet many new people, share new stamping techniques, and even if they aren't swapping, just being at a convention of Stampin' Up! demonstrators, means you're with friends. Old friends you maybe haven't seen in a while, and new friends who become like second family before you leave OnStage. It is such a fun, caring community of demonstrators, some who have spent less than a year stamping, and some who have stamped for almost 30 years. We're under embargo, so I can't show you exciting new products coming out in January yet, but I can share with you card swaps using current products you can purchase today!
I participated in an all-Christmas card swap hosted by the wonderful Michelle Hornback and Angela Waters, and received soooo many beautiful cards. I thought it might be fun to show them to you in stamp families. I'll start with a series using two sets: Wise Men from Afar and Night in Bethlehem. The Night in Bethlehem set includes a coordinating die set -- Bethlehem Edgelit Dies. When you purchase the stamp and dies as a bundle, you save 10%. The order number for the Night in Bethlehem bundle is 146044 if you want the stamp set clear-mount, or 146043 if you want the stamp set in wood mount. Take a look at the closeup of each card below.
Stunning cards made using Wise Men From Afar and Night of Bethlehem. Night of Bethlehem set also has a coordinating set of Dies -- the Bethlehem Edgelit Dies -- that can be used alone or with stamped images on cards.

The card above was created by Kim Vogel from Basement Bunch Stampers at www.kimsbasementbunch.com I hope your monitor shows the warm Crumbcake, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla colors that seem to wrap you in warmth holding this card in your hands.

This next sparkly silver die cut card, above, uses the matching dies from the Night in Bethlehem stamp set. The dies can be purchased separately, but I recommend investing in both the stamp set and matching dies. This card was created by Barbara Gonzales from Glendale, AZ.
Card created by Nichole Loe from Scrappy Stamps & Ink, Tacoma, WA
The card above uses both the stamp set and coordinating die set from the Night in Bethlehem bundle from the Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog. It is a perfect pairing of Dapper Denim base card and Basic Gray. This card was created by Nichole Loe from Scrappy Stamps & Ink in Tacoma, WA.
