Stampin’ Up! Blushing Bride Owl Anniversary!

Stampin’ Up! Blushing Bride Owl Anniversary!

Good morning and happy Tuesday! Today I have another version of the Owl Builder Punch Anniversary card I showed you HERE. I re-did the card with Blushing Bride as one of the accent colors by a request from my upcoming Friday Night hostess, Cindy!


Owl 1
Changes I made include:

Blushing Bride was used for the focal image matting layer, the owl's vest & hair bow, and the heart on the Teeny Tiny Wishes' "happy anniversary" greeting.

The color combo was changed to Basic Black, Whisper White, and Blushing Bride with a splash of Strawberry Slush 3/8" Stretch Ruffled Ribbon for a little extra "pop"!

The new Pretty Print Textured Impressions Folder was used on the bottom layer instead of the Striped folder.


Owl 2
Inside I used a phrase and image from the new This Day Forward set on page 113 of the Annual Catalog. The image is interesting. I think it is  a butterfly, but makes a very pretty flourish too, don't you think?

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

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Basics Balloons!

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Basics Balloons!

Hello there! Late posting today. I'm at Jessica's house getting ready to take Ava, Cohen, and Jaxon back to my house for the day. Jessica has photo sessions all day, so I am taking them to my house to play with Liam! (Liam is at my house with Logan, Ben, & PaPa right now)

Today's card is another from my SWOW class this Saturday. As you know, I LOVE punch art, so when I found this punch art balloon several places on the net, I just had to design a card using them!

Balloons 1

I heat embossed the "Happy Birthday" from You're Amazing with white powder, then dry embossed the Bermuda Bay layer with the Perfect Polka Dots folder and the Big Shot.

The balloons were created with an Medium Oval punched piece of cardstock with one of the feet from the Owl Builder punch attached to the bottom! Pretty neat!

Island Indigo Baker's Twine was attached to the back of each balloon with a Glue Dot. After attaching the balloons to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals, I gathered the twine together and attached them to the card front with another dimensional. I then hid all the mess with a strip of Birthday Basics Designer Paper, which is where I found the color palette for this card!

Balloons 2

Inside I stamped one of the phrases from the new Remembering Your Birthday, omitting the words I needed to with Stampin' Write Markers and positioning the {YOU!} where I wanted it with my Stamp-a-ma-jig.

Balloons 3
I sponged each of the Raspberry Ripple, Summer Starfruit, and Soft Sky
balloons with the corresponding ink color, sponging more ink onto the
left side of each balloon to give it some depth, then used the new Chalk Marker from the Holiday Catalog on the right side to give the look of light and reflection!

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

Stampin’Up! Liam’s First Birthday Dragon!

Stampin’Up! Liam’s First Birthday Dragon!

Hello! Big party last night for Liam's first birthday! It's hard to believe he's one already! Time sure does fly, especially when it's a little one's first year!

Here's a few shots from his big day:

Liam 2

He started seriously pursuing walking the night Cousin Oakley was born:

Liam 1

His Dragon Cake! Ever since Liam was a little guy his theme has been castles, knights, and dragons! This cake was a collaboration between his mommy and daddy.

Liams cake

He needed a little help from both parents to blow out his candles!

Liams candles

Licking the icing off the cupcake is the best part!

Liams cupcake

My girls with their babies!

All six cousins in age order:

563896_10151605049236374_154412150_n
We told Maddie Kate to "settle down" she was being so rowdy! lol!

Whenever Jaxon sees me with Liam he wants up in my arms too! Of course that really makes me mad. NOT!!!!

Me & my boys

Finally, Liam's birthday card. Of course I had to create my own version of the dragon/dinosaur card that's been around the net for awhile:

Liams dragon 1

Stamps: Yippee-Skippee

Cardstock: Pacific Point, Gumball Green, Crushed Curry, Whisper White, Basic Black

Ink: Jet Black StazOn

Big Shot, Beautiful Brocade Textured Impressions Folder

Punches: 2 1/2" Circle, Extra Large Oval, Large Oval, Bird Builder, 3/4" Circle, 1/2" Circle, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (scallop circle)

Some of the elements of this creation were determined by what was available on my craft table. Jaxon was taking a nap in my supplies room, so this card became a "limited supplies challenge"!

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

Well, today should be my SWOW class and Christmas Card classes for July. Looking forward to stamping with everyone!

Stampin’ Up! Mixed Bunch Swap!

Stampin’ Up! Mixed Bunch Swap!

Good morning! Happy Thursday! I have a swap to share with you today, created by Ruth Bingle, using the Mixed Bunch & Fabulous Phrases stamp sets, Blossom punch, 1 1/4" Circle punch, the Square Lattice Textured Impressions Folder, Midnight Muse 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon, and ink colors of Midnight Muse, Gumball Green, and Summer Starfruit!

Mixed bunch ruth bingle p

Ruth stamped all the flowers from the Mixed Bunch set BEFORE she embossed the layer with the Square Lattice Folder. MUCH easier to get a clean stamping that way!

It's a fun, easy card, don't you think?

Well, I'm still working furiously trying to get ready for my "SWOW" class and Christmas Card class on Friday and Saturday, getting ready for  Convention (if I get to go), and Baby Oakley!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
