Stampin’ Up! Blushing Bride Owl Anniversary!

Stampin’ Up! Blushing Bride Owl Anniversary!

Good morning and happy Tuesday! Today I have another version of the Owl Builder Punch Anniversary card I showed you HERE. I re-did the card with Blushing Bride as one of the accent colors by a request from my upcoming Friday Night hostess, Cindy!


Owl 1
Changes I made include:

Blushing Bride was used for the focal image matting layer, the owl's vest & hair bow, and the heart on the Teeny Tiny Wishes' "happy anniversary" greeting.

The color combo was changed to Basic Black, Whisper White, and Blushing Bride with a splash of Strawberry Slush 3/8" Stretch Ruffled Ribbon for a little extra "pop"!

The new Pretty Print Textured Impressions Folder was used on the bottom layer instead of the Striped folder.


Owl 2
Inside I used a phrase and image from the new This Day Forward set on page 113 of the Annual Catalog. The image is interesting. I think it is  a butterfly, but makes a very pretty flourish too, don't you think?

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

Stampin’ Up! Festive Flurry!

Stampin’ Up! Festive Flurry!

Good Monday morning to you! Hope you had a good weekend! I had a fun class on Saturday! Lots of lovely ladies here to stamp, which I love!

I actually had TWO classes happening at the same time that day; my monthly WOW (Simply WOW) Class and my monthly Christmas Card Class. It's exhausting, but TONS of fun!

Today's card is a CASE (with my own tweaks of course!) of a card by Kirsteen Gill using the Festive Flurry Bundle from the Hoiday Catalog:

Festive flurry 1

Kirsteen's was bling-less, but I added the Rhinestones, and used the cut-out piece from the center of the snowflake to stamp the greeting.

I used Smoky Slate for the card base. I love that we now have a light gray color again. I love our Brushed Silver & Gold cardstocks, but they are a bit pricey to use as a card base. Smoky Slate is a perfect silvery-gray color that can ecomonically used as the card base when the illusion of shine is needed.

I used Shimmery White for the top layer and the snowflake cut-outs. It's just the perfect weight and shine for the snowflakes on this card!

To make this card quick & easy, we used pieces of Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper inside the cut-out opening. Accented with Basic Jewel Rhinestones and stamped with a Petite Pairs greeting, this card is an easy WOW!

Festive flurry 2

Inside is also quick and easy: Smoky Slate-stamped Festive Flurry snowflakes and the corresponding phrase from Petite Pairs stamped in Island Indigo!

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

Stampin’ Up! Wetlands!

Stampin’ Up! Wetlands!

Good morning! Yesterday was a CRAZY day! A crazy but extremely fun day! During the course of the day I cared for all of my grandchildren except one, with 5 of the 6 at my house for the evening at the same time! Maddie Kate (who is 12), was the only one I didn't see today. Ava (who just turned 8 on Monday) was INVALUABLE help, let me tell ya! We had three babies needing diaper changes at just about the same time, so between Ava and my sweet hubby helping, we survived! Liam goes home with his mommy today around noon, and then we go to Ava's family birthday party tonight! After my classes on Saturday I think I need to have a collapse scheduled, but it may have to wait until Sunday afternoon. As long as it is accompanied by a nap, I think I can make it!

Understandably I did no new stamping yesterday, so I am relying on my collection of convention swaps to fill in the gap today, and I've a nice collection of Wetlands swaps for you today!

This first swap is by Deb McCahan. I believe Deb combined brayering and sponging to get this great sunset look! I have to confess when I first saw this set in the new catalog this set didn't particularly appeal to me because of the goose image, but it didn't take long for these little shorebirds to win me over, not to mention the great greetings this set has to offer.

Kathy Johnson went simple and masculine with the Canada goose image in this set.

This swap has no name, which is a shame, because it's a good one! The creator combined By the Tide images with Wetlands to make a really well-done thinking of you card.

Wetlands by the tide

Last but definitely not least, Teresa Howe created this beauty by markering on a clear stamp block, spritzing with water, then stamping on the background layer to create the soft, watery look! The greeting is from the Express Yourself Hostess set.

Well, that's all for today! I have to finish up by classes for tomorrow, so I need to get going!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
