Stampin’Up! Flower Fair Simply Scrappin’ Kit Cards!

Stampin’Up! Flower Fair Simply Scrappin’ Kit Cards!

Good morning! Yesterday I had my Flower Fair Simply Scrappin' Kit Card Class, inspired by a Control Freak's Blog Hop I took a month or so ago. These cards are so bright and pretty with the colors of Regal Rose, Garden Green, Tangerine Tango and Daffodil Delight, they really pop! Alas, the Regal Rose color is retiring, so when this kit retires at the end of May, this specific color combo will be gone forever!

Thought I would show you a card or two up close every day (there are 8 total). For starters, here's the groups of them all together (I couldn't fit all 8 of them in the same picture)


Cards 1

Note: all images used ©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

Cards 2

First, is my CASE of a Dawn Olchefske creation, I added the bling and the butterflies with the Bitty Butterfly punch. The stripes at the top are the opposite side of the floral side at the bottom.

Card 3 a

I'm lovin' using the Make a Wish stamp set right now! I hope it carries over into the new catalog, which will be making its' debut on June 1st!

Card 3 b

This card uses a very similar layout, but I used words and images from Thoughts & Prayers.

Card 2 a

The floral spray image from this set is perfect for using Stampin' Write Markers to color it!

Card 2 b

That's all for now! Come back and see me tomorrow for another Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Print Poetry Birthday Set #2!

Stampin’ Up! Print Poetry Birthday Set #2!

Good morning! It's a "Liam day" again today, so I have just a few minutes before I'm off to his house!

Today I want to show you the second set of Print Poetry birthday cards I made!

Note: All samples shown today are©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

Print poetry 7

This first one uses the some of the "pinks" pages of the Print Poetry Designer Paper Stack and a Naturals Ivory card base. The greeting is from the Occasions Catalog set, Make a Wish, and the gorgeous snowflake-y looking medallions are from the April Special set, A Round Array! I added the Raspberry Ripple In-Color Dahlia and the Rose Red 1/2" Seam Binding bow with Glue Dots.

Print poetry 8

My second creation with the "pinks" paper uses Pink Pirouette as the card base, which has been embossed with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Folder and the Big Shot. This time I used a Primrose Petals In-Color Dahlia and the same Rose Red 1/2" Seam Binding to make the bow.

Print poetry 9

On the inside I used Primrose Petals, Raspberry Ripple, and Daffodil Delight Stampin' Write Markers to ink up the "make a WISH" stamp, also from the Make a Wish stamp set. After I stamped in the center of the card, I continued with "generational" stamping by huffing on the stamp with my breath before stamping again several times without re-inking the stamp!

Well, that's it for today! Thanks so much for stopping in to see me!

Stampin’ Up! Geometric Best of Birthdays!

Stampin’ Up! Geometric Best of Birthdays!

Today's card is another CASE (and change) from the talented Artisan stamper, Wendy Wexler! This project was another of the Punch Club projects from this weekend using several Stampin' Up! Square Punches and Best of Birthdays stamp set!

Geometrics 1
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

I used the retiring River Rock cardstock and ink, as well as retiring Certainly Celery cardstock. After running the Very Vanilla layer through the Big Shot in the Chevron Textured Impressions Folder I used the River Rock inkpad Direct-to-Paper to ink up the raised chevron pattern.

Geometrics 2
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

The inside word is from Seasonal Sayings, a Holiday Catalog set that is on the Carry Over List in the Occasions Catalog. I used the River Rock inkpad again Direct-to-Paper to get the swished-ink look!

I used a BUNCH of Stampin' Up! Square punches to make this card:

1" Square Punch #124094 $15.95

1 1/4" Square Punch  #119865 $15.95

1 3/8" Square Punch  #119877 $16.95

Postage Stamp Punch #122344 $15.95

Here's how I made those cute little "square rings":

Geometrics 3
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

I punched the Real Red cardstock first with the 1" Square Punch, then set aside the punched-out square to use elsewhere on the card. I then inserted the negative image from the punching into the Postage Stamp punch, "eyeballed" it for eveness, and punched out the cutest little "square ring" you ever saw!

After embossing the various-sized squares with the Perfect Polka Dot, Square Lattice, and Chevron Textured Impressions Folders, I attached them to the card front with SNAIL adhesive and Tombow Multi-purpose Adhesive Glue (on the skinny little square rings!)

That's it for today! I'm going to be working on the projects for my "Flower Fair Simply Scrappin' Kit Class" this Friday, so check back tomorrow to see some of the projects we will be making!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Textured Impressions Folders used:

Chevron #127749 $7.95

Square Lattice #119976 $7.95

Perfect Polka Dot #117335 $7.95

Stampin’ Up! Cuddles & Kisses!

Stampin’ Up! Cuddles & Kisses!

I took a lot of pictures of the presentation and swap boards at the Stampin' Up! St. Louis Regional a couple of weeks ago, and as you know have been sharing those samples with you every few days in between sharing my own creations. Today, however, I am able to share a swap board sample that I actually created!

Babies
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

I'm still scratching my head over this one, as while I created this swap, I don't remember how it came to be on the Stampin' Up! board! Oh well, it's there and I was delighted to see it on display. I used the Occasions Catalog set, Cuddles and Kisses, Labels Collection Framelits, the Cloudy Day Textured Impressions Folder, Melon Mambo 3/8" Striped Organdy Ribbon, and the hearts strip from the Delightful Details Textured Impressions Folders set.

I hope to have the chance to do so creating and stamping today. It's
been THREE WHOLE DAYS since I held a stamp in my hand, and I'm having
stamp-withdrawl! If I do, and it's definitely on my "to do" list, I will be sharing my creations with you here!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Fancy Fold Swallowtail!

Good Morning! It's a "Liam day" today, so I will be off to see him in a few! But before I go I wanted to share this unusual-fold card I snapped a picture of at Regionals. It is really intriquing and different, I hope to create my own soon!

Fancy fold swallowtail 1
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

A full circle folded in half, then the right side has been cut and folded stair-step style! I've never seen anything like it before! The Swallowtail stamp has been gorgeously heat embossed with White embossing powder on the Baja Breeze cardstock, then sponged with more Baja Breeze ink for depth!

Fancy fold swallowtail 2
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

A side view reveals a simple cut in the cardstock, then a couple of small folds to create the perch for the Beautiful Wings butterfly!

Well, I'm off to Liam's! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
