Good Morning Stamper & Blogger Friends!

Had a great Monday off from work and surprisingly got a lot done off my to do list but yet....always more to do...lol...such is life.

I'm all ready for tonight's 2013-2014 New Catalog Kick Off Party and Ice Cream Sundae Creating!  I hope you are excited to join me!  Fun...fun...fun....

Yesterday I did a fun thing...something that I've been wanting to try....

Our Stampin' Around Wheels are great but I don't find myself demoing them nor really showing them...actually I think some of my customers have never wheelied!  what?  Really.... :-(    So I saw a fellow demo do a fun thing...unmounted the wheel...yes....and I did it.....

Now I probably bought this wheel about a year ago and never ever used it, but I did once I unmounted it and it was so easy. 

Just peel it away from the wheel....and we sell the padding which you can take your wood mounted stamps and convert them to acrylic, so I just put that on the back of the rubber and voila.....an unmounted wheel..now you have to do a little trimming on your wheel to get it to fit the acrylic block, but that was okay with me....and it fits the entire length of the card front...woo hoo....and what else I did was to keep the unmounted wheel inside the acrylic stamp set that coordinates with it....

Isn't this a great idea?  I love it and to think ink has never seen this wheel until yesterday...yes..yes...yes...it happens to me too....but not often.

Here's what else I was inspired to create:

And one more.....

So if you are up to it,, give it a try.....you might find yourself loving this and other ways you can use your unmounted wheels.....

Tomorrow I am going to focus on one of our new standard Stampin'  Up! wheelies....gingham....

Have a great day and don't forget...save room for dessert tonight!
