Stampin’ Up! Timeless Talk!

Stampin’ Up! Timeless Talk!

Hey there! We've just had an absolutely wonderful, balmy day! Temps were up in the 50's, which means we were without coats for most of the day! But now the wind is howling around the house at about 40 mph, ushering in a new round of bone-chilling temps, and possibly some snow! Brrrrr! Winter is still here!

I wanted to share with you this card I created earlier this week for Theresa's party. This is the second of the two masculine cards we made, this time using the fun-fold I've been playing with so much and an annual catalog set I hadn't used much yet, Timeless Talk!

Stampin_up_timeless_talk_1

Of course we had to make a custom envelope with the Envelope Punch Board, and even though some of Theresa's guests were not very craft-savvy, everyone had great success!

Stampin_up_timeless_talk_2

We used an Early Espresso card base, Soho Subway Designer Paper, Early Espresso and a Deco Label Framelit, Island Indigo and Circle Collection Framelit Die, and Very Vanilla and a  2 1/2" Circle Punch. We stamped the antique bicycle with Early Espresso ink the "happy birthday" song with Island Indigo on a Very Vanilla scrap, then stamped the star from the Perfect Pennants set with Island Indigo ink in the center of the wheel. After punching with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch and adhering to the Island Indigo circle, we added an Island Indigo Candy Dot from the Regals Candy Dot pack.

Stampin_up_timeless_talk_3

On the back Very Vanilla panel we stamped "Make a Wish" from Perfect Pennants with Early Espresso ink, and added Island Indigo stars from the same set.

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day! Valentines!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day! Valentines!

Hey there. It's late Saturday night and I'm hoping I'm past the danger zone for the flu. I'm still not holding my breath, but right now I still feel fine!

I have been sorting through more of my pictures from Leadership and found these Valentines I need to share with you before February gets here. I just took pictures of these so I don't know  who created them. If you do know (or are) the creator, please let me know so I can give you credit!

Stampin_up_teeny_tiny_wishes_1

Here's a cute little Valentine treat holder made with one of the Apothecary Accents Framelits, Heart Framelits, Decorative Dots Textured Impressions Folder, and a phrase from Teeny Tiny Wishes. I DO know the creator of this one, my dear friend, Linda Hunt! I remember she swapped this with me because it is one of the few 3-D swaps I received. I love getting to see Linda at Stampin' Up! events. We've been friends ever since the Alaska cruise in 2011!

Stampin_up_label_love_1

This Envelope Punch Board Treat Pouch features the Label Love stamp set and Cherry Cobbler 3/4" Chevron Ribbon. Cute & easy!

Stampin_up_love_you_to_the_moon_1

This sweet little notecard-sized card features the Love You to the Moon stamp set. It would also make a cute anniversary or encouragement card for a family member.

Stampin_up_modern_medley_chalk_talk_1

This treat holder (complete with Chocolate, of course!) was created with Modern Medley Designer Paper, Chalk Talk stamps, Cherry Cobbler 3/4" Chevron Ribbon (love this stuff too!) and 1/8" Basic Black Taffeta Ribbon.

Stampin_up_perfect_pennants_ampersand_1

Last but definitely not least, this card was created with Strawberry Slush, Whisper White, and Rich Razzleberry cardstock, a Tea Lace Doily, Strawberry Slush 3/8" Ruffle Stretch Trim, Ampersand Textured Impressions Folder, and stamps from the Perfect Pennants stamp set!

Well, that's all for now. Hope you enjoy your Sunday! We will be having the usuual clan here for lunch and the afternoon, so I definitely will enjoy my day!

To order any of the supplies to create these projects, click HERE to go to my Online Store! I would love  to be your demonstrator if you don't have one!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Hello, Sailor!

Stampin’ Up! Hello, Sailor!

Hey there! So far I haven't gotten Mark's bug, so keep your fingers crossed for me that I don't, ok? Mark took me to a really good Phillips, Craig & Dean concert at the Marion Civic Center on Friday night. I was really grateful to not be sick and have to miss it!

Thursday night I stamped with a fun group of women at Theresa McGhee's house in Weast Frankfort, IL. She had hot chocolate, hot apple cider, hot coffee, and a array of yummies for us to snack on while we stamped. Theresa requested masculine cards, so I created this one for her group using the new Occasions Catalog set, Hello, Sailor!

Stampin_up_hello_sailor_1

We used the Circle Card Thinlet Die, You're Amazing stamp set for the greeting on this side of the "flip", High Tide Designer Paper (also from the Occasions Catalog), Smoky Slate cardstock and ink, Midnight Muse cardstock and ink, and Silver Glimmer Paper-punched stars! The Smoky Slate stamped anchors are also from Hello, Sailor.

Stampin_up_hello_sailor_2

Here's the "flip" side, stamped with "you're my best mate" from Hello, Sailor.

In case you didn't know, here's how to cut out the curve on the striped section of designer paper:

Framelit curve cutting

The dimensions for the designer paper is 1 3/4" x 5 1/4". Place the paper inside the frame section of the thinlet card die as shown. You will need to "eyeball" the eveness of all sides till it suits you. Then crank through the Big Shot. Your piece will then be ready to apply to your card section!

That's all for now. Today I have a Stamp Camp for Cindy Lisk at her house in Nashville, IL. Yay!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sweetheart Treat Bags and Mosaic Madness!

Stampin’ Up! Sweetheart Treat Bags and Mosaic Madness!

Hey there! I'm a bit nervous about the next few days because Wednesday my husband had the flu and I hate having the flu! Give me a bad cold, sore throat, almost anything else I can handle except throwing up.

While I am still upright and feeling well (I have a workshop Thursday night and a stamp camp on Saturday) I decided to schedule my next few blog posts, so here we go!

I've been stamping up a storm this week. Stamping so much that I almost forgot to show you a couple more of the Shoebox Swaps we made on Sunday:

Stampin_up_love_you_more_sweetheart_treat_bags_1

Angela Henson used the Sweetheart Treat Bags and the Love You More stamp set to create her chocolate-filled card! The Sweetheart Treat Bags (#134610, $4.95 for 12 bags, 12 pre-cut Pool Party Baker's Twine pieces, and 12 die-cut labels) and the Love You More stamp set (#131850 wood-mount $21.95, #131853 clear-mount $16.95) are only available to order through January 27th!) She had us punch Pool Party cardstock with the Small Heart Punch and attach them to the flap and body of the bag with Stampin' Dimensionals before wrapping the Pool Party Baker's Twine around them to close the treat bag.

Stampin_up_love_you_more_sweetheart_treat_bags_2

On the inside, we stamped the birdie from Love You More with Pool Party ink, then added a Small Heart-punched piece of Real Red Polka Dot Parade Designer Paper to his beak!

Stampin_up_mosaic_madness_1

Jan Lacey prepared this beautiful card for us to make. We stamped one of the Gorgeous Grunge stamps all over the Whisper White layer with Soft Sky ink before embossing with the Modern Mosaic Textured Impressions Folder. We also stamped  with the same stamp on the Tea Lace Doily before adding the Pool Party and Island Indigo stamped-and-punched images from Mosaic Maddness.

Stampin_up_million_&_one

Inside we stamped the "Fabulous is what you are" from the Million & One stamp set, then accented it with more stamps from Mosaic Maddness and a Rhinestone Basic Jewel!

Unfortunately, I ran out of time at the Shoebox Swap to finish the rest of the projects, so they will have to wait for another day. =(

That's all for now. Don't forget the Valentine products on the Whole Lot of Love flyer are only available through next Monday, January 27th:

Stampin’ Up! On Film Framelit Dies!

Stampin’ Up! On Film Framelit Dies!

Hey there! I have another "fun-fold" card for you today! This time I used the Peachy Keen stamp set, On Film Framelit Dies, and I Am Me Designer Series Paper.

Stampin_up_peachy_keen_1

I used the smaller "film" die from the On Film Framelits to cut the Basic Gray cardstock frame, then inserted the Real Red-stamped "HELLO FRIEND" inside. I cut the Real Red arrow with another die from the set, then cut and embossed the camera with Silver Foil Paper.

Stampin_up_hip_notes_1

On the flip-side, I stamped the tile-like stamp with Real Red, then stamped "HIP HIP HORRAY"  from Hip Notes with Basic Gray ink, and "happy birthday" from Teeny Tiny Wishes with Real Red ink.

Stampin_up_on_film_framelits_1

Up-close you can see the fine detail from the camera die in the On Film Framelit Dies!

Stampin_up_peachy_keen_2
The Peachy Keen stamp set has a camera stamp, but it doesn't exactly match the die, so I inked the camera die with my Real Red Stampin' Write Marker before cutting the Whisper White cardstock. It transferred the ink nicely, but I decided to go with the Silver Foil camera instead.

That's all for now. My hubby came down with this flu that has been going around, so I prepped for my next two classes like crazy today so I can take time to be sick if I have to! Please keep your fingers crossed that I don't get it!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
