Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day! Easter Cards!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day! Easter Cards!

Hey there, I'm back and pretty quickly, with my promised post of new cards for you. My last post weighed heavy on my heart, but it was something I needed to do. For those of you that read my story, thank you.

Last month's installment of swaps was fantastic. I.mean.really.great.

Today I have the spring-iest and easter-y-iest of them to share with you:

First, Ann Betty's creation with Springtime Hello, Window Frames Framelits, Decorative Dots folder (returning in the new 2014-2015 Annual Catalog!) and now-retired Sweet Sorbet DSP:

Next, a cute bunny card. Unfortunately, the creator failed to put their name on this one, but used Ovals Colection Framelits, all three Oval punches, the Small Heart Punch, and Linen Thread to create this cute little fellow:

White bunny 1

Another bunny, "milk chocolate" this time, created by Cathy Stephenson of Boise, Idaho. This bunny is holding a designer paper "egg" punched with the Small Oval punch!

Lastly, Linda Pagel brought back and oldie-but-goodie, the pop-up-card. She used the Blessed Easter single stamp, combining Summer Starfruit and Gumball Green with the "bubbles" stamp from Happy Watercolor.

It starts out folded flat:

Then you push down on the green sides to reveal the pop-up center!

A side view of the way the cardstock folds out to create the base for the card stand:

That's all for now! Today Maddie Kate & Ava are coming over after church. I have a craft project planned I've been wanting to try for awhile, and hope to have pictures of it to share with you tomorrow!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

A Pop-Up Card!

A Pop-Up Card!

Good Evening Stampers!

Sale-a-bration is in full-swing! I have been out a couple of nights this week already with Sale-a-bration workshops, and I have another one tomorrow night! I can't wait!

The past few days I have been spending ALOT of time creating some fun new projects for my workshops and classes, and I have been having a BLAST! One of the challenges I put on myself was to figure out how to make this card. One of my friends at Leadership received a swap similar to this card last week, and since I don't live with her I took some pictures of it, thinking it would be EASY TO FIGURE OUT! WRONG! I even asked my aspiring engineer-son, Logan, to help me figure it out as I didn't take any measurements, just pictures. He, however, was apparently too busy with his online computer game to help, so I just kept at it till I figured it out myself! I am very proud! (Maybe there's a little bit of an engineer in me too!)

Without further ado, here it is:

Okay, you say? What's the big deal? It's an okay card, but nothing particularly special, nothing you haven't already seen before?

 

 


 

Wait for it . . .

I am absolutely IN LOVE with this card, and once I figured it out and wrote down all of my measurements, it is EASY! I immediately made another one using the "Just My Type" stamp set from the Occasions Mini, but that one will have to wait for another day as it is for my husband's birthday, which is a month away. Although he NEVER looks at my blog, it hardly seems fair to share it with the world before he gets to see it, right?

Anyhoo, I used the Create a Cupcake stamp set, matching Build a Cupcake Punch and Big Top Birthday Designer Paper. If you want to know more, you will have to ask!

So here's the deal. I'm going to give this card away! YES I AM! Don't believe me? Just leave me a comment in the comment section. Please be nice, please be clean, and please don't comment if you don't like my card. The FIRST nice, clean, complimentary comment left on my blog about this card will receive it in the mail from me! Just leave your comment along with your email so I can contact you for your address and it's YOURS! I will include a matching stamped envelope so it will be all ready for you to give away to your favorite birthday friend!

But I'm not going to stop there! Keep an eye on my blog and you will find out what else is coming in the future!

Until tomorrow, have a "StampingRox!" day!

Antiqua Catamaran Day!

Antiqua Catamaran Day!

Antigua catamaran
Our first real day in the sun was on Antigua, where we took a catamaran excursion to "Bird Island". We had the opportunity to snorkel (Jessica did, but I was too chicken to snorkel out in the open water, so I just floated around with my floaty-belt!)and float in the Caribbean. Jessica had her good camera with us today, so she has all the great pics, but I shot a few of my pretty girl anyway! I am so thankful to have had the chance to spend a whole week with my oldest baby girl!

Antigua 2
No matter how many times I cruise, I don't think I'll ever get over how gorgeous the turquoise water is around all these islands!

Here's a few more great swaps:
