Red, White, & Blue (non-patriotic) card class

Hi friends!

Tomorrow's class is all about the Red, White, & Blue....but not in the patriotic sense!

These cards were inspired by cards I found on pinterest. What do you think?

petite petals stamp set and coordinating punch

vellum embossed with silver --mixed bunch and flower shop stamps

quilt pattern embossed with baroque brocad

oldie but goodie--retired script and simply sketched stamps

Stamping is fun!

Who doesn't like snowflakes?

Hey friends!

I saw a holiday card on the Stampin Up demo-only website that I thought was so beautiful I couldn't wait to copy it! And then I loved it so much I included it a club project and still loved it so much I made a video showing how to make it. That's a lot of love! Thank you Paula Dobson for sharing the original inspirational card!!!!

I know you have to be wondering what this card looks like and also wondering if you will feel the same...well here's it is

And here's the video...

This card uses one of Stampin Up's most popular stamp set, and one of my favorites, Mixed Bunch.

A scrappy little card

Hi stamping friends!

I am very honored to participate on the Kricut Krazy design team!

As some of you may know I have been a Stampin’ Up demonstrator since October 2010. I attended my first Stampin Up (SU) workshop in 1996. Most of what I saw at that first show is long forgotten. But I still remember exactly what I purchased, though, and why. My first SU purchase was stamp for a wheel and an ink cartridge for the wheel handle that had both purple and blue inks; being the crafting packrat that I am I believe I still own both! That long ago demonstrator showed how you could easily stamp the edges of tissue paper using the stamping wheel. I bought a wheel with a pansy design because I thought of how cool my gift bags would look with tissue paper stamped with two-toned pansies. Even then I wanted to share my stamping projects!

Over the years I have become more and more enthusiastic about stamping---and now I can honestly say most of my thoughts are stamping related. I have so much fun stamping and sharing my creations that I want everyone to have the same fun! 

I made the birthday card below as a sample for my 3 for $5 class I taught last Tuesday; I'm sharing the ingredients and recipe with you today. I'm calling it a scrappy card because it uses many scrap pieces of cardstock. I hope you like it! Please contact me if you have any questions. This card uses tone-on-tone white cardstock embossed with SU’s vintage wallpaper embossing folder and a splash of Melon Mambo color.

Ingredients:

Stamps: Mixed Bunch, Easy Events

Ink: Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight

Cardstock:
Whisper White 8.5 x 5.5 ", 4.75 x 3.3.75" scraps for flower, 1" circle, word window punch
Melon Mambo 4.25x .75", scrap for modern label punch

Punches: corner rounder, blossom punch, 1” circle punch, dotted scallop ribbon border punch, word window punch, modern label punch

Accessories: Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, dimensionals

Recipe:

1. Emboss the 4.75 x 3.375" white cs with the vintage wallpaper embossing folder. Cut it into 3 pieces, each 4 3/4" by 3 1/8"; to keep the order correct on the back of each, mark the pieces 1, 2, and 3. Round the corners on each piece.
2. Attach the pieces to the white cs base in 1, 2, 3 order, centering top and bottom with about 1/16" between the pieces. 
3. Using the ribbon lace border punch punch the 4.25x .75" piece of melon mambo cs. Attach to the card base. 
4. Stamp a flower from mixed bunch set with melon mambo ink on a scrap piece of white cardstock (cs); punch out using the blossom punch. Using a bone folder curl the petals back.
5. Stamp a flower center from Mixed Bunch stamp set with daffodil delight ink on another piece of whisper white cs; punch out with 1" circle punch. Attach with a dimensional to the center of the flower punched out above then attach to the card base with another dimensional.
6. Stamp happy birthday from the Easy Events set in melon mambo ink on a scrap piece of whisper white cs; punch out just the birthday greeting using the word window punch.
7. Punch a modern label using a scrap piece of melon mambo cs. Attach the happy birthday word window punch on top of the modern label punch. Attach to the card base with dimensionals.

Stamping is fun!
