Stampin’ Up! Pistachio Trim Tree!

Stampin’ Up! Pistachio Trim Tree!

Hey there! I just got home from a FUN workshop with some dear stampin' friends of mine! We stamped, ate, shared, and laughed ALOT! I am so priviledged to get to stamp with the White Street girls once a month!

Today's card is one I found inspiration from a Founder's Circle sample, so I have no idea who the creator was! It many have even been Stampin' Up! I CASED the idea, but then went ahead and made it almost completely my own:

Ribbon tree 1

This card turned out so cute, I'm really diggin' it!

Inside is stamped with more of the wording from the Wishing You set, as well as the tiny present in the lower right corner.

     A Fun Stampingrox! feature of this card: I embossed the tree with the Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions folder AFTER I had adhered the ribbon to the tree shape! 

     That's all for now! I have a BIG DAY of stamping ahead of me tomorrow and I can't wait! Lots of ideas and plans rolling around in my head, so we shall see how many of them I can transfer to ink and paper by the end of the day!

      Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Fancy Favor Box Not Retiring!

Stampin’ Up! Fancy Favor Box Not Retiring!

Here's a cute idea from the Spring Into Stamping Event, a Fancy Favor Box that has been embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder! The Summer Smooches Fabric Brad in the center is out of stock, but the partial Paper Doily Die in the center is not and will be carried over from the Occasions Mini! YAY!

This would make a great wedding or shower favor, wouldn't it?

Next up is an actually quite simple card using the Lattice Big Shot Die and the scallop flower from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack!

I love how they clipped into the scallops of each flower just a little to give them more dimension! Sadly, the "Birthday Wishes" greeting is from "Sincere Salutations", a set that will be retiring on May 31st!

Lastly, here is a pretty little wedding/shower/engagement card using "Thoughts and Prayers" a set usually reserved for sympathy cards, (just shows the versatility of Stampin' Up!'s stamps!) along with the Framed Tulips Textured Impressions Folder and a phrase from "A Word for You".

Congratulations

Don't forget you can contact me anytime to order your retiring stamps and accessories before May 31st!

Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!

Spring is on it’s way!

Spring is on it’s way!

Yes, my friends, spring IS on it's way, at least in my mailbox! This week I received my monthly swap I participate in, and the theme this month was "spring or Easter", which means I have some beautiful cards to show you!

This first swap from Barbara Dykhouse used the "Build a Blossom" stamp set with the "Blossoms Petals" punch, along with the "Framed Tulips" Textured Impresssions Folder to create an all-occasion card. All I have to do is add the sentiment of my choice and stamp the inside accordingly and it's ready to go!

Beth Weinstein paired Rich Razzleberry with a selection from the "Springtime Vintage" Designer Paper and "Thanks for Caring" stamp set to create an elegant sympathy card. She also used the "Framed Tulips" Textured Impressions Folder. Can you tell it's a favorite of just about everyone?

Last for today, Cindy Ewertz used the Occasions Mini "Clearly for You" stamp set along with the "Easter Blossoms" phrase, "sending Springtime smiles" to enhance the "Petal Card" punch as this card's focal point. There's lots of texture going on here with the "Square Lattice" Textured Impressions Folder and the "Scallop Trim Border" punch, and Decorative Label punch! Cindy Ewertz

Final two “Yes, Ma’am!” projects!

Final two “Yes, Ma’am!” projects!

As promised, here are the last two projects we made at our Saturday meeting:

This first project, a "Technique Project",  uses the "Framed Tulips" Textured Impressions Folder, but in a different way. Usually the folder only creates a rectangular impression, but I'v learned a neat new way to get a square AND a narrower rectangle with the same folder, it just requires one extra step! We will be doing this technique in some of my future classes, so keep an eye out for your chance tolearn how to add value to your "Framed Tulips" folder!

The "my dear kind & wonderful friend" is from "All Holidays" on page 154 of the Big Catalog, punched with the 2 1/2" Circle punch, backed by a flower from the "Fun Flowers" Die. and matted with a piece of "Springtime Vintage" Designer Series Paper, all from the Occasions Mini! The inside of the card has two of the phrases combined from the Occasions Mini set, "Bring On the Cake!"

Twenty-one of these cards went into the mail on Monday for the monthly swap I participate in!

That's all for today. I'm putting the finishing touches on my "Do you need a Valentine?" Class tonight and tomorrow, and then tomorrow night my "Yes, Ma'am!" Stampers, my downline, are comint to stamp! Sunday morning will find me in the church nursery, and then Sunday afternoon I will be working on my cards for this month's swap! Lots of fun coming up! (If only I didn't have to clean my house, but hey that's what those two tall boys who still hang around here, eat my groceries, and make dirty laundry are for, eh?)

Until next time, have a "Stampingrox!" day!
