Stampin’ Up! Serene Silhouettes Swap to Share!

Stampin’ Up! Serene Silhouettes Swap to Share!

Good morning! Still mining my swap stash while I play "catch-up" from being sick!

Todays card is one I don't really enjoy making, but they have to be done, don't they?

The creator of the card used Serene Silhouettes and Thoughts & Prayers stamp sets, the Oval Collection Framelits, the Honeycomb Textured Impressions Folder, Whisper White 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon, Pool Party Core'dinations cardstock, and Island Indigo and Whisper White cardstock to create a truly serene, restful card.

Serene silhouettes

I apologize for the poor lighting. I took these pictures while still stuck on the couch sick on Monday. Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz Stampin' Write Markers were used to ink up the flower image (what kind of flower IS that, anyway? I'm not a horticulturist!), then tiny Basic Jewel Pearls were added to finish them off sweetly.

Thanks for stopping by! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! A Swap to Share!

Stampin’ Up! A Swap to Share!

Good morning! I was miserably sick yesterday with the stomach flu. I'm glad I had prepped my blog post on Sunday night, because I had no brains for anything yesterday morning, or for most of the day.

With that said, obviously I did NO STAMPING yesterday at all, so have nothing new to share from me, but I still have some swaps in the vault I haven't shared, so for the next few days that is what I'm going to show you while I play "catch up" with my house, laundry, & business so I can focus on baby Oakley when he arrives! He's due this Friday, so it can't be much longer, can it? Alisa mentioned a few days ago she was beginning to think she was going to be pregnant forever, which of course means it won't be much longer!

Today's card comes from the monthly swap I participate in and uses the Sweetly Framed Hostess set. It's a darling set, especially paired with the Gingham Garden Designer Paper! The background is embossed with the new Modern Mosaic Textured Impressions Folder, and the "for you" greeting is punched with the 7/8" Scallop Circle punch and layered on Artisan Label-punched layers!

Inside the frame included in the set was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink, then the "Happy Birthday Wishes" from the Simply Sketched Hostess set was stamped inside with Island Indigo ink!

That's all for now! I'm actually typing this post on Monday night to schedule for Tuesday morning, and I'm about worn out!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Teapot!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Teapot!

Good morning! I hope you are warm and dry today! I'm hoping for some drier (and a bit warmer) weather for awhile, we've had four straight days of rain around here and we are soaked!

Today I want to share a project that was demonstrated by Colleen Magness at the Demonstrator Share in Fiji, an adorable teapot made with Gingham Garden Designer Paper and the Oval Accents Die!

Gingham garden teapot
Isn't this just the MOST ADORABLE thing? I've put a teabag in it and added an Artisan Label-punched tag from the Label Love set, but a gift card would fit in here too!

We are making this little lovey at my SWOW Class on Friday and Saturday NEXT WEEK (the 12th & 13th) along with two more fun projects! RSVP to let me know you are coming, please!

That's all for now! I'm off to run some errands today, then I get to transport Maddie Kate to her Tumbling lesson this evening!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! (and dry!) day!

Stampin’ Up! Best of Flowers Chalk Talk!

Stampin’ Up! Best of Flowers Chalk Talk!

Good Monday morning! I have a bright and cheery card for you today using the daisy flower from the Best of Flowers 25th Anniversary set, one of the stamps from Chalk Talk, and a greeting from A Dozen Thoughts!

Wish Big 1

Cardstock colors are Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, Naturals White, and Whisper White. Ink colors are Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana, and Jet Black Stazon. The centers of the daisies are popped with color using a sponge dauber and Daffodil Delight ink! The "wish big" greeting was cut out with one of the Bitty Banners Framelits, then layered on a Daffodil Delight strip that was cut 1/8" wider then the greeting strip then the ends were banner-cut with Paper Snips.

Wish big 2

The inside greeting is the the June 25th Anniversary set, Best of Greetings. It was masked with a post-it note punched with the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle punch, then the daisy was stamped all round the edges of the mask with Daffodil Delight ink.

The bottom of the card was stamped with the miniature upsy-daisy stamp from Best of Flowers.

I'm really diggin' this card! So much so that I believe it may have to be one of my convention swaps!

What do you think? Would you like to receive this card in a swap?

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Best of Butterflies Smile!

Stampin’Up! Best of Butterflies Smile!

Good morning! Lightning quick post here! I'm getting ready for my "Best Of" Class this morning, so this must be quick!

Smile 1

Inspired by Debbie Henderson, I loved her card and wanted to use it for my class, so I created a slightly changed version. I'm not going to detail my changes here, but the "smile" stamp is from the new Happy Day stamp set and the butterfly is from the Best of Butterflies 25th Anniversary Collection set.

Smile 2

I LOVE this saying from Really Good Greetings, and the designer paper is from the black-and-white pack, Modern Medley!

That's all for now! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Washi Tape!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Washi Tape!

Good morning! How are you on the first day of summer? I thought I would share this bright and happy samples from the Gingham Garden Suite board in Fiji!

You know, if I hadn't taken so many pictures while in Fiji I would have a hard time believing I was actually there!  Now that I've been home a little more than  a month it seems like a dream! And that is exactly what it was, a DREAM VACATION!!!!

Washi tape 1

This first card has Gingham Garden Washi Tape layered onto a piece of scrap cardstock, then cut out with the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die and the Big Shot! REALLY LOVE this idea!

Washi tape 2

This card has strips of Gingham Garden Designer Paper with Gingham Garden Washi Tape layered on top with a greeting from Kind & Cozy and a Daffodil Delight 1/2" Seam Binding bow! The addition of the Small Heart Punch embellishment is just perfect!

That's all for today! I have my monthly class with my Galatia Crafty Chicks today! FUN!

Enjoy your longest day of the year! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
