I love that this set (page 42) comes with matching framelits. You can get the bundle at a 15% discount. I used the washi tape on page 22 and 41 on this card.
The sentiment is from Good Greetings and with a $300 workshop or party you can get this set FREE. Contact me and I will send you out a flyer with all the details. I hand drew the outline with one of our Project Life Journaling pens.
These little guys were created with the new Fall Fun Framelits found on page 46 of the Holiday catalog. By now you have all rec’d that wonderful collection of stamps and accessories. The eyes of the ghosts are stamped with the set Freaky Friends on page 45 and the sentiment is from Mingle all the Way on page 17. The bat is from a retired punch that was on the clearance rack.
OOPS! just noticed that the date on my watermark is 2104. Hah! I should live so long! LOL
I sure used a lot of Glam on this card. Gold embossing, gold sequin trim along with the gold Fancy Foil DSP Vellum, gold foil card stock and metallic Gold card stock for the base card. WOW that’s a lot of GOLD!
The Stamp set is Cheerful Christmas found on page 15 of the Holiday catalog and the sentiment is from Endless Wishes on page 32. Do you remember last Christmas that Endless Wishes sold out in a matter of days. Well it was so popular that SU decided to bring it back and I am so glad they did. It is an awesome stamp set with beautiful fonts and images.
I told you before that I will I am going to use the heck out of this set “Pictogram Punches” and I am doing a good job of it. On this card I also used a new set called Chalk Lines found on page 114 of the big catalog. This is one of those stamps (like Bordering Blooms pg 162) that have pretty much replaced the wheels we used to have. They are so much more easier to line up that the wheels and I love them. I water colored Shimmery card stock with Pacific Point & Tempting Turquoise inks and used the new framelits to cut out the stars. Hope you like it!
This is one of those cards I like to call easy peasy, not exactly CAS (clean and simple) but close. We made this at Wednesday’s club and every one really liked it. They all thought it would be a great masculine card also. I used our new in-colors, Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Lost Lagoon. Notice the Lost Lagoon satin ribbon which comes in all of our new in-colors. So pretty and lays so nicely on your projects. I used the banner framelits with the Big shot.
This set is called Holiday Home and it is in the new (yet to be released) Holiday catalog. You will soon be getting it in the mail and every thing in there will be available for purchase on August 28th. This goes well with our Nordic Noel DSP AND….are you ready for this…….. matching Framelits to cut out the houses. This is so much fun to play with. Another perk is the fact that you can save 15% by purchasing the bundle (both the set and the framelits) together.
This is one of the cards we made at class on Wednesday. The sentiment is from the set Amazing Birthday found on page 48 of the big catalog. It is so versatile and many of the sentiments are great for masculine cards. All of the sentiments can be cut out with either framelits with the Big Shot or with our punches. Great set. I used our new In color sequin assortment on this card in addition to the glitter paper. The other images are from the set Zoo Babies.
This is one of the single stamps that SU is featuring in the Big catalog. I embossed it in white craft ink and then colored it in with our White Stampin’ Chalk Marker found on page 211 in the big catalog. I think it gives it a realistic look! I used the Basic Hodgpodge Clips on page 209 and the Strawberry Slush Thick bakers twine. The DSP is from the All Abloom paper stack.
I had to make 25 of this card for a swap at convention. Actually, after the cocktail party on Wednesday evening a group of us that are staying at the Hilton are doing a fun swap in our PJs. This is always so much fun.
Anyway there are 25 of us and Mo and I have been busy making swaps, although this is the only one that I had to make 25 of. I never realized when I started to create this card that it was going to take me 3 days to complete 25. With all the punching, framelits, stamping, embossing, and embellishments, I was done in. Have got to seriously re-think when I create swaps how many I have to make before I commit to a design. Won’t make that mistake again! LOL
I love the vintage technique and it really suited this Hostess stamp set, found on page 240 of the catalog. The set contains 11 stamps with beautiful images and lovely verses. You can get this set as one of your benefits when holding a workshop or a book party. In addition, if you are a hostess in one of my clubs you can also get this set. Contact me HERE to find out how.
This project at club this month turned out to be a good masculine card for really any occasion by leaving the inside of the card blank. Don’t you just love how the sentiment is the old fashion type that used to be on these old typewriters? The stamp set is called Tap, Tap, Tap and can be found on page 126 of the catalog. I also used one of the new Embossing folders, Tiny Triangles for the background.
This little sail boat I carved from our “Undefined” kits, found on page 199 of the catalog. You can make your own stamps and at convention last year, I did not get a chance to do it, but Mo did. She made an awesome little giraff. This year at Leadership I did finally try it and it worked. This is what I made. I must say this is the first time I have used this stamp. I kinda like it. What do you think? Now be honest! I love input, no matter what kind as long as it is constructive and not nasty.LOL
The background stamp is Hardwood and can be found in the catalog on page175. We embossed the sentiment with black embossing powder.
I used the Blendabilities on this card. It was one of the first projects I did with them. They are a little different that Copics and there definitely is a learning curve but after a few times they are a snap! Right now there are several colors available for you to try your hand at. I will be having a class for anyone that buys them from me.
We made this card at club this week and I got the inspiration from a card that was posted on Stampin’ Connection. I changed it around a little to fit the low country. All the items on this card (except for Yippee Skippee & glitter stars) came from this month’s Paper Pumpkin. You can do so much more with these kits. There were Straws to make pin wheels and goodie holders and tons of embellishments.
This is our Ronald McDonald stamp set this year and you can find it on page 249 of the catalog. Except for the flamingo, all of the sentiments and images can be cut out with either a punch or framelits. This set is so versatile. Love it!
You will want to get this set, not only because it is so stinkin’ cute, but for every set that is sold, SU donates $3 to the Ronald McDonald House (RMHC). Good buy!
We sure have a ton of flowers in the catalog this year but you can never have enough flowers. These flowers are from the Hostess stamp set, I like You, on page 237 of the catalog. This is another set that is perfect for using the Blendabilities, which I did use on this card. I used Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight and Cherry Cobbler. Beginning July 1st you will be able to order these colors in the Blendabilities. I will have a class teaching y’all how to use them. They are so much fun and the colors come out so vibrant! Don’t you agree?
As you probably know, if you have one of our catalogs, that SU has decided not to sell the wheels anymore. We were all a little worried because they did serve a great purpose, especially if you wanted to do matching backgrounds for cards, gift bags, make your own DSP etc.
I never could get it straight. It didn’t much matter if you were making DSP or rolling a bag or gift paper because no one ever noticed that it wasn’t straight. However, when you were making a card with it you needed to be more precise and that is when I started removing the images from the wheels.
SU has now started making BORDER stamps to replace the wheels, and they are so easy to use and are wonderful! The one I used on this card is called Chalk Lines and can be found on page 114 of the catalog. I love the new border stamps and we have several of them.
The border stamps do not come in wood, only photopolymer, so you will need the acrylic block “I” when stamping with them because they are all 5 1/2″ long.
This Stamp set is called Be the Star and can be found on page 93. It has matching framelits and makes it so easy to put together an fast card. With the 4th coming up soon I decided to stick with the colors of our Flag. The small stars and the sentiment are from the set Pictogram Punches found on page 89. In addition, I used the matching punch from our new Itty Bitty Punch set on page 222.
Another nautical stamp set. By the Tide on page 131 and Sea Street, page 48. I used the DSP from the Small Paper stack, Moonlight, on page 185. Goes perfect with this set. The sentiment is from Just Saying set on page 109 and cut out with the matching farmelits, Word Bubbles. I used the White Signo Gel pen to highlight the images.
I live near the coast so I love everything about the sea. I am so glad that we have so many stamp sets that are nautical. The DSP is called Maritime and it is just lovely. The stamps I used on this card are from By the Tide found on page 131. I just realized while I was searching for the Hello Sailor stamp set that it was not carried over to the new catalog. So sorry, I try not to use anything that is not current and I will promptly remove it from my current sets.
You can save 15% when you purchase the bundle on page 93. The stamp set is “Be the Star” and the matching Stars framelits Dies are awesome! I love this stamp set. However, I did use the sentiment from the set “Pictogram Punches” found on page 89, even though it has several sentiments of it’s own. I used Pacific Point inks and the silver Foil paper.
We made this card in class for Father’s Day. I love the new Maritime DSP, found on page 187 in the catalog. Thought it was great for a masculine card. You will be surprised to find that the ties have been cut out with our new Framelits Baby’s First. These framelits were actually meant to coordinate with the Stamp set on page 74, but the ties are perfect for Dad. I used the new photoploymer Metro Type Alphabet set. What do you think?
Hey Stampers, I rec’d my box of new products today and I am having a blast! On this card I used the new embossing folder Tiny Triangles, the 2 new Bigz Dies Flower Frenzy and Party Pennants. You know you are going to see a lot of my new stuff in the next few days. So excited! BTW, I used no stamps on this card.
Saturday, Mo came over so we could work on our swaps for convention. Well, the one card that I designed she liked it but said I could do better. Huh!!!!!
She of course, finished one of her swaps but I am still working on mine because naturally I couldn’t go with the one I had plan on going with. BTW, I posted that card yesterday in case you want to see it. You tell me what you think. Don’t sugar coat it now!
This is another card I created using the new Maritime DSP papers. I love this set of papers, especially the Red, White, Blue and Coastal Cabana. I bought extra of this for the 4th so I can make some patriotic cards with it. All of our new DSPs can be found on pages 184 through 187. Just beautiful! Need a catalog? Contact me HERE.
This card was created using a mask. The colors are our new in-colors and the stamp set, Zoo Babies, can be found on page 78. The background stamp is World Map, found on page 38. Both stamps have been carried over to the new catalog along with lots of more new stuff for you to craft with. Contact me here to find out how to get some FREE.
I know this hashtag stuff is all the rage right now but I still don’t know what it means. Even though my daughter has explained this to me (something about instagram, I think) I still don’t get it. But, I wanted to use it on a card for camp Saturday.
I sponged vellum with matching inks and punched the flower out with one of the new punches from Itty Bitty Punch Pack. This replaces the pack that just retired. SWEET! I also used the new photopolymer alphabet.
