Stampin’ Up! Joyful Christmas!

Stampin’ Up! Joyful Christmas!

Good morning! Today is a special day for me! Today is my 36th wedding anniversary! yay! My sweet hubby and I are in Branson, MO for a few days. Last night we saw the "Shepherd of the Hills" outdoor pageant. We saw it a few years ago and liked it so much we decided to see it again. It was just as good as the first time!

Today I have another card we will be making at my Christmas Card Class this coming Friday and Saturday using the Holiday Catalog set, Joyful Christmas, the Circle Thinlet Card Die, Season of Style Designer Paper, and Gold Foil Sheets:


Joyful christmas 1
I was inspired by a card made by Corinne Somerville from Canada!


Joyful christmas 6
All stamps used are from the Joyful Christmas stamp set, and the colors of Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake are taken directly from the colors in the Season of Style Designer Paper. I used the Gold Foil Sheets to punch the flower centers with the Cupcake Builder punch.

That's all for now. I'm not sure just what we are up to today, but anytime spent with my sweetheart is time well spent!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Fun Snow Day!

Stampin’ Up! Fun Snow Day!

Good morning and happy Monday! I have a fun card for you today! We are going to make this card this coming weekend at my Christmas Card Class! Want to come?

Fun snow day 1

I started with a Pool Party base, then added a layer of Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper. Another layer of Pool Party, then a Whisper White layer that I stamped with the Snow Day snowman with Pool Party ink. I created his hat by stamping with Versamark on a Silver Foil Sheet, then heat-embossed with Silver Embossing Powder. I hand-trimmed the hat with my Paper Snips. "oh WHAT fun" from Christmas Messages was silver heat-embossed on Whisper White, then punched with the Label Bracket Punch. Another Pool Party-punched Label Bracket was cut diagonally to mat behind the first label, then I punched a Silver Foil Sheet with the Extra Large Oval Punch to mat behind it all.

Fun snow day 2

Inside is stamped with another phrase from Christmas Messages in Versamark, then silver-embossed. The snowflakes  and "warm wishes" phrase are stamped in Pool Party.

Well, that's all for now! I really excited about my class this weekend! Hope you can come!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Cards From Friends!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Cards From Friends!

Good morning! Instead of my usual "Sunday Swap Day", I have a small collection of cards I have recently received from stamping friends/customers to share with you today. Let's get started!

Angie lisk

From Angie Lisk. I love the multiple pennants Angie cut and layered on this card. Pretty much all of the supplies are retired (Angie is a faithful customer!), with the exception of the three Candy Dots in the upper left. Candy Dots are a colorful way to add the look of brad without the holes to pierce or the bulk of the brad legs! Similar to Pearl or Rhinestone Basic Jewels, they are self-adhesive!

Becky anderson

From Becky Anderson. Becky's cards are always so calm and peaceful. She is a dear friend I do not get to see often enough!

Crystal lopez

From Crystal Lopez. Crystal is another faithful stamping friend. She used the current Stippled Blossoms and the "hello" from My Friend. Her color combo is Pool Party, Island Indigo, Gumball Green, Wisteria Wonder, and Rich Razzleberry. I love the splotches of color she created with reinker and a water mister! Crystal is a true color artist.

Meg wheeler
Last but not least, Meg Wheeler, my dear fellow demonstrator friend, created this lovely card. Meg used a bit of retired Sale-a-bration paper, then paired it with Papillon Potpourri stamps and the Bitty Butterfly punch (on sale this month!), as well as Ovals Collection Framelits. The "hey there friend" greeting is from the My Paper Pumpkin first monthly kit you receive when you subscribe, so it's still available!

That's all for now! Of course it's Sunday, and there will be lots of family here for lunch after church so I need to fly!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Wonderful Blessing!

Stampin’Up! Wonderful Blessing!

Good morning! We interrupt "What to Washi Week" to bring you this brand spankin' new creation:

Wonderful blessing 1

I created this with the new Wonderful Blessing single stamp (#134779 $8.95). I gold heat-embossed the image, along with Flowering Flourishes images on Midnight Muse cardstock.

I decided to use the "Double Door" or "Gatefold" layout. Here's the basic design:

Cut two card bases
8 1/2” x 4 ¼”. Score each at 2 1/8” and 4 ¼” on the 8 ½” side with Simply
Scoring Tool. Use the smaller end of the scoring tool to score your lines. This
lets the folds come together more closely when you put the card together. Fold
both bases into a “z” shape as shown in picture #2. Attach 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” sections
to each other to form card back with SNAIL.

I then cut the circles for the "doors" with the Circles Collection Framelits. It's not easy to describe this step. Maybe I will do a video for this card soon, we'll see! Leave me a comment if you would like to see this card in a video!

Wonderful blessing 2

I'm lovin' how this card turned out!

Wonderful blessing 3

The "merry christmas" is from Teeny Tiny Wishes, embossed on Midnight Muse and punched with the Word Window punch. I punched some of the new Gold Foil sheets with the Modern Label punch to layer behind it.

Wonderful blessing 4

That's all for now! I'm going to read to my grandson, Cohen, in his kindergarten class today for Grandparent's Day, so we shall see what I accomplish after I get home!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
