Stampin’Up! Truly Grateful!

Stampin’Up! Truly Grateful!

 Good morning and happy Thursday to you! Just one more day until my Holiday Catalog Open House! I still have so much to do! But first today is another Liam day, AND a Jaxon day, yay!

I made today's card for the second swap I am in this month using the Holiday Catalog set, Truly Grateful, and Sweater Weather Designer Paper.

It's a pretty simple, straightforward card, nothing too complicated or fancy, but I like it alot!

Truly grateful 1

 Inside I used a phrase from the new Annual Catalog set, Lots of Thanks.

Truly grateful 2

Here's my supply list:

Stamps: Truly Grateful, Lots of Thanks

Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla, Sweater Weather Designer Paper

Ink: Chocolate Chip, Crushed Curry Classic Inkpads

Accessories: Chalk Talk Framelits, Very Vintage Designer Buttons, Linen Thread, 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon, SNAIL Adhesive, Stampin'Dimensionals, Tombow Multi-Purpose Glue (to attach the burlap ribbon to the card front. SNAIL doesn't stick to the burlap!)

That's all for now! I'm off to Liam's, then we will be going to Jaxon's while Jessica has a newborn session to shoot! Those two little guys play together really well for a 1-year and an 18-month-old!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Halloween Hello!

Stampin’Up! Halloween Hello!

Good morning! I am really excited to show you my creation today! It's a Halloween card using the Halloween Hello set from the Holiday Catalog. You will be able to see this card in person when you come to my Holiday Catalog Open House this Friday and Saturday. I also made this for one of my monthly swaps:


Halloween Hello 1

It's hard to see in this picture, but the little witchy is stamped with Versamark, Heat & Stick Powder, and then sprinkled with Basic Black Stampin' Glitter!


Halloween hello 2

The words were stamped and the Witches' Brew Designer Washi Tape was applied to the card front FIRST before runnning through the Big Shot in the Houndstooth folder.

The glitter on the witch image was attached with Heat & Stick powder, which can be a little bit tricky. Hopefully I will have a tutorial for you for this product soon.

Come back tomorrow to see my second monthly swap!

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

Supplies:

Stamps: Halloween Hello #131718 Wood $18.95, #131721 Clear $14.95

Ink: Jet Black StazOn, Pumpkin Pie Classic, Versamark

Big Shot: Houndstooth Textured Impressions Folder

Misc: Witches Brew Designer Washi Tape, Hexagon Punch, Label Bracket Punch, Black & Orange Stampin' Glitter, Heat & Stick Powder, Heat Tool, SNAIL adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stampin’ Up! Hello, Lovely!

Stampin’ Up! Hello, Lovely!

Good morning and happy Tuesday to you! It's another Liam day, so this will have to be quick!

Today's card is by Mary Haugen. Mary added Soho Subway Designer Paper to Crumb Cake cardstock upon which she created her own border by stamping a single stamp from the Hello, Lovely stamp set multiple times along the edge with Crumb Cake ink!

Mary haugen hello lovely

The "you MAKE ME HAPPY" greeting is from Hello, Lovely, as is the Summer Starfruit-stamped arrow. The Very Vanilla scallops were cut with the Adorning Accents Edgelits. A piece of Linen Thread was added for a bit more tactile texture!

Well, I'm off to Liam's, then he & I are headed to Jessica's to spend the day with Jaxon while she has photo sessions. Busy, busy, busy.I'm so glad Liam and Jaxon get to spend some "cousin time" together today!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Papillion Potpourri!

Stampin’ Up! Papillion Potpourri!

Good morning! It's Monday and my first day back taking care of Liam! I'm really looking forward to it, he's such a fun little guy!

Today's card is another swap from convention by Andrea MacDonald. Andrea combined the Lattice Bigz Die, Papillion Potpourri, and the Bitty Butterfly punch to create this stunning card!

 

Andrea macdonald papillon potpourri

Cardstock is Whisper White, Basic Black, and Daffodil Delight. Ink is Jet Black StazOn. A bit of Daffodil Delight Polka Dot Parade Designer Paper and Daffodil Delight 1/2" Seam Binding add just the perfect touch of class to this one!

This card has no greeting, which is card sacrilidge as far as I am concerned (I like for all of my cards to "speak" to me, to invite me to open them!). In this card's defence, however, it could have just about any greeting, except for may "happy father's day" or "merry christmas", and this card would fit the bill!

That's all for now. If you remember from last school year, I go to Liam's house, so I need to get going. I have to drive by another grade school on my way to his house, and if the lights are flashing I have to drive REALLY SLOW!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Chalk Talk!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Chalk Talk!

Good morning! It's Sunday again, which means it's Sunday Swap Day! Today I have some convention swaps using the fun new set, Chalk Talk!

Denise Sullivan combined this set with Crisp Cantaloupe Core'dinations cardstock and Birthday Basics Designer Paper. The Core'dinations paper already has a texture to it which Denise emphasized by sanding it lightly.

Brenda Meyers used Crushed Curry for her card base with lightly sanded Coastal Cabana Core'dinations paper which she had cranked through the Big Shot in the Beautifully Baroque Textured Impressions Folder. The Eastern Elegance Designer Paper strip at the bottom matches perfectly with the embossed design and the Chalk Talk stamps used. Brenda used Coastal Cabana 3/8" Ruffled Stretch Ribbon and Basic Jewel Pearls to finish off her design!

Jessica Lewis created this card with a decidedly Halloween feel, even though it says nothing scary! I think it is her color combo of Basic Black, Smoky Slate, and Tangerine Tango that gives me that impression. She embossed Vellum, stamped En Francais on the Basic Black oval with White Craft ink, and stamped the Chalk Talk flourish on Vellum with Black StazOn ink before cutting it out with the matching Chalk Talk Framelit. The "You Make Me Smile" from A Round Array has been heat embossed with Tangerine Tango and punched with the 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch.

That's all for now. It's dark and rainy-looking here today. I've got to get ready to help in the nursery at church this morning. That is sure to brighten my day!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
