Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Grunge!

Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Grunge!

Hey there! I have another Birthday Card Buffet card to share with you today. The front of this one was originally created by one of my monthly swap group swappers, but I have somehow lost the name off the back:

Stampin_up_gorgeous_grunge_2

I love these colors of Night of Navy, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, and Whisper White together! Stamps used are Gorgeous Grunge and From My Heart, and the Banner Punch was used to punch the Night of Navy cardstock and Soft Suede Backgrounds Designer Series Paper. Sponging with Crumb Cake and a little bit of Linen Thread add the finishing touches!

Stampin_up_gorgeous_grunge_1
Here's a tip for stamping the lines stamp from Gorgeous Grunge straight on your paper: Line up the edges of the paper along the lines on your Stampin' Up! Grid Paper (if you don't have a this Grid Paper, you NEED to get a pack!), then line up the edges of your stamp block with the lines of the Grid paper before you stamp. With just a teeny little bit of practice your stamping of lines (or words, or whatever) will be just the way you want it!

Stampin_up_gorgeous_grunge_3

Inside we stamped more Gorgeous Grunge and another phrase from From My Heart.

That's it! This card was a favorite at my class. If you are attending any of my workshops or events this month you just might get a chance to make it!

Stampin’ Up! Grunge Butterflies!

Stampin’ Up! Grunge Butterflies!

Hey there! Rain, rain, rain! All it has done at my house today is rain! It has alternately thundered and rained, lightened up, then thundered and rained again ALL DAY, and it is raining now as I write this! At least it's not snow!

While it's been raining, I've been stamping! Bet you could have guessed that anyway, huh? Today I have a fun little butterfly card made with the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set and both the Elegant and Bitty Butterfly punches:

Stampin_up_gorgeous_grunge_butterflies_1 - Copy

I CASED this card from Michelle Last of the U.K., and you can view her card HERE. Michelle is a very talented stamper, but even she CASES cards now and then! Michelle CASED her card from one her downline, Tracey May! You can view Tracey's card HERE.

As you can see, even a CASED card morphs into something a little bit different every time as the CASE-er changes the card just a little bit to suit their fancy!

In case you are wondering what CASE means, it stands for Copy And Share Everything, which is a friendly standard Stampin' Up! Demonstrators live by world-wide!

Stampin_up_gorgeous_grunge_butterflies_1 - Copy (2)

I punched the butterflies with both the Elegant and Bitty Butterfly punches from Soft Sky cadstock, Fresh Prints Designer Paper, and Vellum cardstock. They are layered on each other with Glue Dots, as well as adhered over the Pool Party-stamped Gorgeous Grunge splatters with the same.

Inside I stamped a sentiment from Happy Watercolor. I really liked adding the "scratch" stamp to the sides of the layers. It gives a nice contrast of images with the splatters.

 

 

Stampin_up_gorgeous_grunge_butterflies_2 - Copy

That's all for now. I'm going to head to bed and hope the rain stops before morning, athough it IS soothing to sleep with a gentle rain falling!

Here's the supply list for everthing you need to CASE your own version of this card. You can purchase your supplies from my online store HERE.

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! Serene Silhouettes Snowstorm!

Stampin’Up! Serene Silhouettes Snowstorm!

Hey there! I had such a very positive response to yesterday's card using Serene Silhouettes I decided to create another card using this set using an idea that has been rolling around in my head for quite awhile:

Stampin_up_serene_silhouettes_snow_1

I combined Serene Silhouettes with Lovely as a Tree and a phrase from More Merry Messages. I stamped the birds on the branch with Jet Black StazOn ink on a strip of Crumb Cake 2" x 4", then used my Paper Snips to hand-cut the tag corners. I layered this on a piece of 2 1/8" x 4 1/8" Always Artichoke that I also sponged with Always Artichoke ink. I used the Crumb Cake tag corners as my guide to cut the Always Artichoke tag corners.

Stampin_up_serene_silhouettes_snow_2

To achieve the "snowstorm" look: after stamping the Lovely as a Tree images with Always Artichoke ink (the bare trees in the background were stamped-off once before stamping on the card base), I used the finest splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge to stamp both the card base and the birdie tag first with Smoky Slate ink, cleaned my stamp, then stamped the same image over all with Whisper White Craft ink. I think the two colors layered over each other does give depth to the "storm", yes?

All edges were sponged with first Always Artichoke ink and then Whisper White Craft.

The Always Artichoke bow is actually Pear Pizzazz 3/8" Taffeta ribbon that I custom-dyed by laying the ribbon directly on the Always Artichoke inkpad and sponging. I rubbed the ribbon with a paper towel to remove as much excess ink as I could before tying the bow. It is adhered to the top of the birdie tag with Glue Dots.

I stamped the "merry christmas" phrase from More Merry Messages with Jet Black Staz On on Crumb Cake, then punched with the Modern Label punch. I then sponged it with both Always Artichoke and Whisper White, then rubbed the edges of the piece directly on the Always Artichoke pad for more definition. It is adhered to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

For my finishing touch I added Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details to the birdies, leaving the card flat to allow time for the "glitter glue" to dry.

Stampin_up_serene_silhouettes_snow_3
Inside is stamped with the same Lovely as a Tree images and sponged with the same inks as the outside.

The inner phrase is from Christmas Messages, stamped with Jet Black StazOn ink.
