One of my favorite Stampin’ Up! sets is Stella Stamper. She is not around anymore and it makes me so sad that we don’t have a stamp set like her anymore. This is my CREATE frame that hangs in my Studio, this was one of the projects we did at a class a year or two ago.
I want Stampin’ Up! to bring Stella back, but update her to modern times, give her a cell phone, day-timer, an I-Pod, and of course all her stamp accessories, but make her a drawing that we can color and make our own, and have her be cute, not wacky. We could have a basic Stella Stamper set, and then an accessories set. Oh my gosh, what about clothes, just like paper dolls, we have Stella right.. and then we have clothes that we can color and cut out and they will go with her body. So we have the Stella business person, and then Stella in jeans, and Stella in a track suit….I mean how adorable would that be. I have already designed 10 cards in my head.
I am a genius! "Brilliant!!!" as my hubby says, he watches too much TV (when he is not painting, doing yard work etc. – ha) and it is on some beer commercial, but I laugh when he says it, and it makes me love him all the more. Remind me to tell you the duck call story, I still pee my pants a little when I think of it.
You can bet that with over 40,000 Demonstrators out there, even if not one customer ordered one (although I have customers all the time wanting Stella) that would be a lot of Stella Stampers sets sold out there.
Come on Stampin’ Up! We want Stella! We want Stella! We want Stella!
Stella does have a smile on her face because she is back up on the wall, and out of that box where she has been for the last couple days…and she loves the Old Olive by the way….hmmmm…..
I will take pictures of my room when it is all organized and presentable.
I have classes this weekend, so I need to prioritize. Not as easy as it sounds, as my mind goes a mile a minute.
I also want to thank everyone for emailing me about my Blog, it is so much fun, and not as hard as I thought, (although I am sure it does way more then I am using it for) and really not as time consuming as I thought either, I mean anyone that knows me, knows that I like to talk and well this is just the perfect combination isn’t it? I can go on and on and not lose my breath, and you can go take a potty break and come back and you have not missed a thing…..
Enjoy hump day, and thanks for stopping in!
Hugs, Di
