I love this stamp set Santa’s List (pg 31 Holiday catalog) because he is so vintage looking and y’all know how I love Vintage. I used soft suede and blossom blush on our Santa and Sweater Weather DSP. I also used soft sky card stock. The sentiment is from Oh, Goodie found on page 32 in the Holiday catalog. If you were a member of one of my clubs, you got to make this card this month.
This little cutie we are making at our Wednesday morning club. I got the idea for this from a posting I saw in Stamping Connection by Delia Kettel a fellow demonstrator from Germany. Thank you Delia for the inspiration.
Who wouldn’t love to receive a Christmas gift wrapped in this little bag? The Gift Bow Bigz Die #129977 can be found on page 37 of the Holiday catalog. Can’t stop making these bows, they are so awesome!
How would you like to have both of these famous stamps in one set? Well you can! Both Frosty and Christmas Hedgehogs are in the November Best of Sets, along with 2 other gorgeous stamps. Sooooooo adorable!
I love this stamp set, you can do so much with it. You can make invitations, congratulations, thank you cards and engagement cards with it. The new in color ribbon just lend itself to this dress. I used Coastal Cabana ink, paper and pleated ribbon to finish it off. Hope you like it!
This stamp set is part of a bundle you can buy on page 30 in the Holiday catalog. You can get both the stamp set and the coordinating framelits that cut them out for you for 15% off the price if you buy them together in the bundle. I used the silver foil card stock, the silver glimmer paper and the gorgeous Frosted finishes embelishments on page 28. So pretty!
This is another stamp from the Holiday catalog that I said I was not going to buy…..I am soooo weak and can be talked into just about anything. After I saw what people were doing with this gorgeous stamp set on the internet, I just had to have it. You can find it on page 27 in the Holiday catalog.
I was inspired to create this card from PCL. Andrea did hers with an oval frame but I like the square frames for mine. Perfect season of the year to make shaker cards.
I used the painter’s tape technique on this card and love the way it turned out. Colors I used were Crisp Cantalope, Pistachio Pudding, and Soft Sky. This technique is so popular right now, it’s not hard to look on any paper crafting site without seeing it. I think this stamp set really lends itself to this technique.
I love this set, mainly because I love to color. How can you make a simple little drawing look so elegant….load it with bling and some white highlights. This set would be a great set to use with your children or grandchildren for Christmas cards. So easy and so much fun!
Okay, today I am back from visiting my little girl, Mary Pat, and her parents in TN. She is my only grandchild, so far.
When I stamped this card with the states I thought about going half way across the country, and that would be to Houston for Leadership in January. I never thought to use it for TN. I think from now on whenever I am going to be out of town I will post this stamp so you can know where I am at all times. You know that with an email HERE you can reach me anytime no matter where I am. These photopolymer stamps are not in the catalogs but you can get a flyer on all of them that SU releases from me.
This is one of those cards that is so easy to put together, but looks like you spent a lot of time on it. I used the set Remembering Christmas on page 28 of the Holiday Catalog. I used the Big Shot with the Apothecary Accents to cut out the frame for the Deer. The DSP is from Season of Style Paper Stack, also in the Holiday catalog on page 22.
If you saw yesterday’s posting, you read where I love using this mosaic embossing folder for the background. I really love it on this card. You can get a really terrific deal on this stamp set and the punch that goes with it. On page 35 of the Holiday catalog, there is a little block colored in Pool Party that shows you how you can save 15% by purchasing the bundle. I wasn’t going to buy this set but I saw so much of it being used on the internet that I caved and bought it! Talk about will power, right?
This is my all time favorite SANTA stamp that SU has ever created. I am so happy they brought it back in “The Best of Christmas” set. I couldn’t wait to start coloring it. I used watercolor paper, our classic ink pads, and the aqua painter. So much fun! I used Pool party to fill in the background so you could see his while beard. Hope you like it!
I created this card with the “Best of Christmas” stamp set. You can get these sets until March 2014 and then they will be gone. If you purchase at least 6 of ‘The Best’ of Sets you can get any stamp set in either catalog valued at 14.95 or below. They are stamps that are being brought back because of SU’s 25th Anniversay. I love that I remember so many of these stamps and how much I like them. Unfortunately I didn’t keep most of them because I try to sell all my retired sets every year. So when they started this ‘Best of’ I jumped right on it. Contact ME to find out more.
We have new Holiday stamps that are sold separately and this sentiment is one of them. I used the beautiful DSP, Winter Frost Specialty (page 29 in the Holiday Catalog). It is hard to see in this photo but both designs have that silvery background. I also use our new Silver Foil sheets (page 28) to back the sentiment. I think that, along with Island Indigo ink, sets off the entire card.
What awesome cards you can make with the EVERYDAY OCCASIONS kit. I made these two cards, yeah, I didn’t follow the rules. Although, all the directions are indicated on all 20 cards for you to make them as the samples that they have posted in the kit, you can also go outside the box and do your own thing. That is what I meant by not following the rules..LOL There is over $50 worth of card making joy for just $29.95. See below or contact ME to find out more and to get the flyer.
This is MPP with a new twist! I added some other elements to change around the design. Had fun playing with this.
We making this card in my Friday night Hostess Club. It is made with the Truly Grateful found on page 19 in the Holiday catalog. In addition, I used the Stamp set Wonderfall found in the big catalog on page 84. I used Tangerine Tango, crushed curry and Soft Suede. I shredded the burlap ribbon for my focal point and tied it with Linen Thread.
This is not your Mama’s Paper Pumpkin! I went outside the box with these two cards. While the card that is designed to make with MPP is cool, I just thought I would change it around a bit. You get a Midnight Muse ink spot with the kit but I also incorporated Gumball Green with it. I also used our new Chevron punch.
Hey all, Sarah Webb here! I have been a product designer at Stampin’ Up! for a little over six months, now. When I started working here back in March, my first assignments were for the annual catalog 2014.
The sentiment on this card is from the awesome set “Chalktalk”! I used the feathers from the stamp set “Gently Falling” on page 65 in the big catalog and trimmed to give them that feathered look. Easy peasey! Feathers are very popular this year and I love how they look with our new incolors, don’t you? Would love if you left me your comment at the bottom of this post. I love hearing from y’all on what you think of my creations.
Have you seen our new 6X6 DSP card packs in the Holiday catalog? We have 2 different ones this year filled with beautiful Christmas designed paper. The one I used today on this card is found on page 22, called Season of Style. I also used our beautiful Chevron ribbon. I made the ornament with the Mosaic punch found on page 80 of the big catalog and the embossing folder is Petals a Plenty. The sentiment is from Seasonal Sayings.
This card was made by cutting out our DSP Sweater Weather with the Big shot Autumn Accents Bigz Die found on page 192 in the big catalog. I then glued them on a 5 1/4″ X 4″ piece of Very Vanilla card stock and ran it through the big shot with the Fancy Fan embossing folder. I used the stamps for the sentiment from the Truly Grateful set in the Holiday catalog on page 19, and finished off the sentiment with our absolutely COOL CANDY DOTS and brads found on page 171. Don’t you love how it just sets off the entire card?
I made my own washi tape with our cool gingham wheel found on page 82 of the big catalog. I used colors strawberry slush and coastal cabana. The flowers are from the set Flower Shop found on page 94. I punched the flowers out with the coordinating punch found on page 183. You can get this as a bundle and save 15%. I made the washi tape with our crepe paper and our Big Shot multipurpose Adhesive sheets (120805). I will show a video on how to make your own washi tape. Coming soon. 
I love the sentiment on this stamp set. It is on page 27 in the Holiday catalog. I used the marker technique on this and used Real Red,Black Stazon and Gumball Green. I used the new embossing folder, Stylish Stripes, page 22 in the Holiday catalog. In addition, I used the little banner in the thinlets collection for “little”.
Can you believe I made this file folder pocket card with our new Envelope punch board? You can do more with this board than make envelopes. I will also be featuring some boxes made with this item. Just in time for Christmas. You can even round corners with it. How awesome is that? I used a ton of washi tape on this card. Love it!
These are some of the cards that were created for our Downline/ Sideline Shoe box Swap this past weekend. These cards were created by Patty Biggerstaff, Maureen Leeper and Chelle Naron. So much talent! Don’t you just love them? There were several others that I will post another day. It was a pot luck and the food was outstanding. Not only can these ladies create works of art but they can cook too! Patty Biggerstaff offered her house to hold this event with 15 ladies all taking part in the swap.
It is such awesome fun to get together, stamp and share ideas with a bunch of ladies who all love what we do. If this sounds like the perfect job, believe me, it is. You can join my team and start your own business. Contact me here to learn more.
I love this stamp set because it reminds me of where I live and the marshes and beaches. It also has very good sentiments for birthday, thank you and thinking of you. See this on page 69 of the big catalog.
I love this little cardinal from the Hostess set “Warmth and Wonder” in the Holiday catalog. These ornaments are made from the framelits released last Christmas. I covered them with washi tape. You can do so much with that tape. I love, love, love it! Our Holiday catalog has both Halloween/Fall and Christmas Washi Tape. Call me you get yours.
I used the stamp set Wetlands again to create this card. I took a class in Savannah a couple of years ago with the famous Michelle Zindorf for brayering and now I hardly ever use my brayer. So, I thought it was time to get it out. I love this technique and should use it more often.
I used the Expressions Thinlits to make this card. You can find them on page 36 of the Holiday catalog. This set has three different sentiments. A little tip on how to use these: Place the cutting plate on the magnetic platform (or tab 2 of the regular platform) and then add your card stock or paper. Add two (2) pieces of wax paper and then the thinlit. Cover with the cutting pad and run through the machine. Easy peasy! If you do have a problem removing the fine little letters you can use your paper piercer through the little holes in the thinlit. If you need more information contact me HERE.
This card was created with the set gorgeous grunge and the designer paper Etcetera. The sentiment is from Delightful dozen. All of these products can be found in the Big Catalog.
Now this stamp set is only available to hostesses that have a total party of at least $150. Easy to accomplish when you offer supplies from Stampin’Up!©. You can see the rest of the stamps from this set on page 39 of the Holiday catalog.
