...for new stamp sets!! I just love this new Sweet Scoops set (available as of May 1st in both clear and wood mount). Who doesn't love a scoop of ice cream, with sprinkles of course, on a hot summer day. I can see using this set a lot on my summer birthday cards and scrapbook pages. I used Melon Mambo as my card base and stamped the scoops in Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango and Old Olive. The sprinkles are done with Chocolate Chip. YUMMY!! I used the 1 1/4 inch square punch and lined them up on a piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock. This is a quick and easy card that you will see in an upcoming class. Stay tuned for another Sneak Peek of the Summer Mini Catalogue tomorrow.
One more sleep until Valentine's! Here's my attempt at decorating the house for this day of hearts. Peter and I made this using the Big Shot and various Stampin' Up! punches. I got the idea from my monthly demonstrator magazine...just one of the many perks of being a demo!! We used Real Red, Pretty In Pink and Regal Rose as well as the beautiful Sending Love Designer Paper. It was a quick and simple project and looks pretty nice on my door.
Happy Tuesday!! Here's another quick and simple card for Valentine's Day. It uses the new Stampin' Up! Perfect Polka Dots impressions folder. This perfectly fits a card front which I love! The Small Heart punch is a great size and is in the new punch style. These are both in the Occasions Mini Catty. The border punch is again that lovely SAB freebie and the HVD saying is from Teeny Tiny Wishes. This stamp set covers every holiday you can think of and has quickly become my most used set! Enjoy your day and check back soon for more card ideas.
Oh I just love this card! The pink and brown is so "me". This card was made using Pretty In Pink and Chocolate Chip cardstock. The punch is the Scallop Trim Border Punch that you can get for FREE with a $65 order until March 31st. Don't miss out on this as it's an awesome punch (value $22.95). The patterned paper is from the Occasions Mini Catty and is called Sending Love. One side has glittery patterns and the other is plain patterned. It's lovely!! The cutie owl is from Love Bandit. I tried to gather the new satin ribbon and am not sure if I like the result. I may have to play with that technique a bit more. It does use a lot of ribbon but for a few special cards it would be ok. I'll be back with more cards soon.
How about a little "Love Bandit" to steal your heart? I am loving this new stamp set. I purchased this one in the clear mount and it's awesome. The Stampin' Up! clear blocks are similar to the wooden ones with an easy grip side. The stamps work as well as the wood mount ones and are much easier to store. You have to try these out for yourself. This card was easy to put together and think will go out to my nephew in a few weeks. Keep checking back as I will be posting more Valentine's in the next couple days. Enjoy the weekend!
Good Morning! I just finished making 21 card fronts for a demonstrator swap using the products in the Occasions Mini Catalogue which will be available on January 5th. There are some awesome things in there for sure. On this card, I used the Sending Love Specialty Paper. This paper is loaded with bling - one side has glitter and the other is plain. The patterns are beautiful and match the new stamp set called With All My Love. I also used the new I (Love) Love jumbo wheel on the punched out heart. This mini is loaded with awesome stamps and now you have a choice. You can get the traditional wood mounted stamps or you can try out the new clear mounted ones. These are a bit cheaper and store really neatly in DVD cases. Stampin' Up! is also changing their punch style to one that is easier to store. Make sure to sign up for a class or two this winter so you can try out all these great new products.
