Did you find what you wanted?
Tue 16 Feb 2010
When we moved into our new apartment last summer, I told Eve that she could pick whichever Decor Elements she wanted for her new room. (You might remember that she used to have butterflies on her wall.) She picked the princess, carriage, and castle — all in pink. No real shock there. But when we went to put them up, they just looked strange, floating on her wall with nothing grounding them. So I while I was looking around for some better way to put them up — maybe frames, maybe canvas — Stampin’ Up announced that they would be selling some of the raw vinyl. People could use their Big Shots to make their own Decor Elements! I bought some of the raw vinyl in Certainly Celery, but instead of die cutting it, I used it to create more of a scene with the Decor Elements that Eve had chosen.
It took us less than hour to put all of it up. Steve helped with the castle, since even standing on the bed I can’t reach that high. Most important of all, Eve loves it!
Each package of the raw Decor Elements vinyl comes with two sheets of vinyl (approximately 14-1/4″ x 24″ ), along with two sheets of transfer tape, for $12.95. It is available in the following colors:
118801 Bashful Blue
118814 Basic Gray
118804 Black
118806 Certainly Celery
114337 Chocolate
118808 Clear
114334 Dark Gray
118813 Gable Green
114336 Kraft
118805 Night of Navy
118803 Old Olive
118810 Pixie Pink
118800 Pretty in Pink
118809 Pumpkin Pie
118802 Real Red
118798 Rose Red
118812 Sahara Sand
118797 So Saffron
118799 Taken with Teal
118807 Tempting Turquoise
114335 White
Chalkboard Decor Elements Vinyl Sheets (118815) are also available for $14.95.

For those of you that do not know, I am an elementary school librarian. When I saw the new Decor Element that said “Do Good. Be Kind” it really resonated with me. Of all of things we teach children, this is the most important. If they can learn these two items, then our job is well done. It is a theme that runs through most of the stories I read to them, and also what I hope they see in my daily interactions as well.
Directly opposite the door to my office is a wall that is a lovely shade of blue. It was calling out for something, and I think I found it!
Do Good. Be Kind. If only we could all follow this simple advice every day.

I love the Thoughts & Prayers Tree. I love it as a stamp and I love it even more as a Decor Element vinyl design! I have put up three of these trees so far — one at Applewild School Library, one at Paula’s house, and one at my parents’ house. But I’ve never had one of my very own. And now I do! We put up one in our living room, and I have to tell you, it looks fantastic! And it’s great for California, because you don’t have to worry about a huge piece of art falling down in an earthquake.
Remember, this comes in 6 pieces, so we started out slowly. Here’s a look at it partially up:
Here is the finished tree, right behind our couch:
My husband really liked the quote that was with it in the catalog, so added that too. We separated the birds from the quote for a more balanced look. Here’s a close-up of our end result:
I love seeing this in the living room! Here’s what it looks like:

We’ll take a little break from Valentines today. I want to show you one of the Decor Elements that my husband and I put up this week. We had this space above the stove, and were looking for something that would fit there. We decided on this saying, “Our attitude toward Life determines life’s attitude toward us.” It’s the perfect thing to read all day, from making coffee in the morning to cleaning up after dinner!
You can see all of the Decor Elements in the July brochure and the January supplement. We put up a few more as well, so be sure to check back to see them!

It’s here! It’s here! January 5th is here and with it brings all sorts of new goodies! I know you don’t want to listen to me blather on and on, so here are the links that you have been waiting for!
Occasions Mini Catalog! Starts today and goes through April 30th. The big exciting news in this mini catalog is the new option of Clear-Mount stamps. These are not clear stamps, but rather the deeply etched red rubber that you expect from Stampin’ Up, but designed to be used on clear acrylic blocks. Please see my video tutorial on using these stamps for more info.
Sale-a-Bration starts today as well! It is every stampers favorite time of year! For every $50 that you spend, you can pick one free item from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. For the first time ever, this includes stamps priced at $15.95 or less from the main catalog as well! If you host a workshop of $300 or more, then you can choose an additional set! There is a fabulous paper pack and an amazing punch in there as well!
As if that weren’t enough, there are new Definitely Decorative items as well! These include some amazing chalkboard Decor Elements! We’re thinking about putting up some extra walls just to have room to put up all of this great stuff! You can view the new Definitely Decorative insert here. But wait, there’s more!
You loved them when they were circles, you’ll love them even more as hearts! Yep, there is a new Treat Cup in town, and it is heart-shaped, just in time for Valentine’s Day! The new Heart Treat Cups coordinate perfectly with the Sweetheart stamp set and the Full Heart punch. Download the Heart Treat Cup flyer for more information.

One of the fabulous products in the Holiday Mini Catalog is this Holiday Mix Décor Elements.
It comes in your choice of four different colors — Real Red, Chocolate Chip, Black, and White. Stampin’ Up advertises it as containing the letters for “Joy,” “Snow,” and “Noel.” But surely there are other things that can be spelled with those letters… My friends over at Stampin’ Addicts and I put our heads together and came up with the following list of 65 (yes 65!) other words and phrases you can spell with one sheet of the Holiday Mix Décor Elements.

I love this tree! Have I mentioned that I love this tree? It is a fabulous tree, and I was so excited when Paula wanted to put one up at her house! It looks so great on her wall. Actually, I’ve never seen a wall that it looks bad on! Here are some of the highlights as we put it up:
And the final out come! It looks so gorgeous in real life!
So, when are you getting YOUR tree?
