Paper Page Markers

I have been asked by several people to give the directions for my Paper Page Markers.  I can not claim this idea.  May demos sharing their swaps from OnStage had something very similar to these.
Here is the picture I shared


Items needed-


Trimmer #126889
Paper Snips #103579
Cardstock I used Flirty Flamingo
DSP In-Color DSP Flirty Flamingo (sorry no longer available)
Multipurpose Glue #110755
1/2" Circle Punch #119869
Classic Label Punch #141491
Stapler

If you do not have all of these items substitute with what you have on hand.

Cardstock cut to 1" X 5"
DSP cut to 3/4" X 2 1/4"
Classic Label Punch cut out several Labels.

fold Cardstock 1" X 5" in half
cut Labels in half 
punch out circles

with half of the label adhere with multipurpose glue or adhesive of choice
I took the label about 1/2" down on folded side
see following image.




Next I stapled the label to the folded cardstock for a bit more strength


Next I added the 3/4" X 2 1/4" DSP to front and back of marker
Personally for me just covered up the staple on the back too.

Now I just glued the circles to the top, one in the front and one in the back

Ta-Da you have made a Paper Page Marker

Here is the link for the original post of Swaps from Sam Hammond Donald where I saw these Paper Page Markers (look at mark 9:34 to see where I got the idea)



Happy Stamping!!!!

Stampin' Up Color ReVamp

Hello you wonderful crafty stampers.  I have been trying to get my head around the new color revamp for Stampin' Up.  And I think I have finally done it.

Stampin Up made changes to the stamp pad so it does not quite look the same but basically is the same size.  And a lot easier to open.

1.  Archival Black and Gray are gone.  No more out the door, arrivederci.

2.  Archival Black has been replaced with Stazon Black Ink

3.  Archival Gray is now a Classic Stamp ink.  WARNING: do not use the new ink formal for Basic Gray on you old Archival Gray ink pads.  They are two different types of ink.

4.  New In Colors:                         Still Here
in-colors

5.  New Colors, some have moved from one collection to another. I love it.  The possiblities!
color-collections

Also you will see that Neutrals no longer have 3 of our basic colors.
We now have a Basic List 
Black, Very Vanilla and Whisper White.  How about that.  Room for more colors.  Whoopie!!!!

Okay now the sad news these colors have retired from the collections;
Chocolate Chip 
Always Artichoke
Elegant Eggplant (sad face for me)
Island Indigo
Marina Mist
Perfect Plum
Pink Pirouette
Rose Red
Soft Sky
Tangerine Tango (maybe a little sad)
Tempting Turquoise
Wild Wasabi (sad face for me)
Wisteria Wonder

Retiring In Colors 2016-2018
Dapper Denium  (Boo Hoo) 😢
Emerald Evy
Flirty Flamingo (if you did not notice it made it to the Brights Collection)😊
Peekaboo Peach
Sweet Sugar Plum

There is so much more.  The ladies that were able to go to OnStage (Stampin' Up Get together) have the catalog in their hot little hands but can't share.   
I will go through the retiring list and put it up next.

Happy Stamping! 😃

Sorry everyone, I have been bed ridden with something.  I just don't have any energy to get up or think about crafting.
Go back to doctor tomorrow to see what is going on, sure hope they can find what is happening.
Remember there is Hostess Code for April look on the right of my blog page,
And as soon as we can share the new catalog with you guys I will put up a notice.

Happy Crafting!
