Me Tidbits...
My name is Diana Gibbs, and I am a Wife, a Mum, and a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I have been a Demonstrator for 14 years and I live in Arizona with Jeff my Hubby of 28 years, our 24 year old son Eric, our 5 year old Yorkie-Poo Toby, and our five chickens, Stella, Clara, Fiji, Mork and Mindy, RIP Gertie & Alice. I am a 2009 Stampin' Up! Artisan Award winner, I am one of the Top 100 Demonstrators for 2010, 2011 & 2012. I am having so much fun, I love my job!
Excuse Me While I Brag a Little...
Check out my Stamping Studio
- Wanna Come Stamp With Me?
"Di"ctionary
- "Tweak"To tweak, tweaker, tweaking, tweakster", any of those words used on my Blog means to like someones card, scrapbook page, project, whatever and you copy it but you change it up a bit.

- "FLICKs"First Level Incentive Card Kit(s) - these are the card kits my girls can earn based on their monthly sales.
- "BFF Tracy"Everyone knows that BFF stands for Best Friends Forever. Tracy lives in Pennsylvania and we met through Stampin' Up! and we talk and laugh every day, and we both wish each other lived next door. We only see each other a few times a year. Everyone should be so lucky to have a BFF like my Tracy!
- "Card Guts"Left over class packets of cardstock all ready to make cards.
- "MDS"My Digital Studio - Stampin' Up!'s new Digital Paper Crafting program for making scrapbook pages, cards, calendars, DVD's, etc.
- "Toby"My dog
- "Eric"My son
- "Jeff"My hubby
- "Dit"On the ruler it is the little lines in between the big lines, they might be 16's, 18's, heck they could be 44's, to me they are dits.
- "What-cha-ma-call-it"Something I don't know the real name of, or maybe I just can't spell it right
- "Dealie-bob"What-cha-ma-call-it
- "Sansodor & Stumps"An oil for blending watercolor pencils, and the stumps are what you apply the oil with. You can also use it with the Watercolor Wonder Crayons.
- "TLC"Technique Lover's Class
- "DSP"Designer Series Paper

What I'm Reading Now
Charlaine Harris: Dead Reckoning (Sookie Stackhouse/True Blood, Book 11)
I think I read this already, but just got Book 12, and need to jog my memory.
Movies I Recommend
- "Death at a Funeral"Make sure you get the original 2007 British version. So many funny moments, I love swearing in a British accent. Oh and Uncle Alfie on the crapper..."it's touch and go" and "you missed a bit" - Classic
- "Barefoot in the Park"This is so funny, Jane Fonda's Mum and all the stairs is hilarious and when she gets drunk....ya gotta watch it!
- "The Butterfly Effect"Make sure to watch BOTH versions, the theatrical and the director's cut...let me know which one YOU liked best!
- "Mr. Holland's Opus"I love Richard Dreyfuss, since Jaws and this movie is so uplifting and beautiful.
- "Serendipity"I think this is one of my favorite movies of all time...well at least the one with NO vampires in it...ha! I believe in fate...do you?

Some Kind Words
"You are one sweet and kind person, I am so glad that I chose you to be my Demonstrator. I have so enjoyed your blog and all of your stories. Thanks for being a SWEET HEART." - Sharon
"Thanks for the video. Have been wanting to do this and once again...you have inspired me. :)" - Gladys
"Thank you so very much for continuing to show samples and "how to" instructions and videos of your fantastic and creative projects. I can't even express how much it is appreciated." - Kim
"You totally crack me up girl. I love you, and we have never met." - Wilma
"If I wasn't a demonstrator already, I'd be joining your team. :) Thanks for always sharing your ideas and excitement for SU! My upline quit several years ago, so I've been blessed to have sideline sisters that help and encourage. Convention was a blast... like a bunch of crazy family getting together for a reunion! now I'm going to "go, go, go"... LOL" - Shelly
"I highly recommend this tutorial. I have dabbled with water coloring and didn't think I was too bad at it, but this tutorial has a number of helpful tips in it that immediately helped improve my technique. Even with the low price, I was apprehensive to purchase it because I felt a video was needed. You have managed to do it with a very reasonably-priced PDF. I am sorry I didn't purchase it sooner." - Dorrie
