CORRECTION!

My proofreading skills are terribly lacking, and I apologize!  Yesterday I posted a reminder about the New Catalog Stamp-a-Stack on June 17th and said you had to RSVP by June 18th.  Obviously, that won't work.  Today (June 10th) is the last day to RSVP.   Sorry for any confusion!!

A ROUND ARRAY AND LABEL LOVE!

Here is another card I saw on the Demonstrator site.  I really like it because it uses so many great accessories!
Print Friendly and PDF
This card uses the A Round Array and Label Love stamp sets, which are available in the current Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.  I accessorised it with Vintage Trinkets (the little safety pin), Delicate Details Lace Tape, Daffodil Delights 1/4" Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon, the Artisan Label Punch and the 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch and the Needlepoint Border Embossing Folder.  I think this is one of those cards that is all about the accessories!!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

I always get such a creative education when "That Michelle" and I get together!  I totally love her visits!   This is her Father's Day card.
Print Friendly and PDF
"That Michelle" used lots of punches for the wrenches (atleast I think they are wrenches ;o).  The background and the oval were embossed with the Big Shot, using the Chevron Embossing Folder and the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.  I love my Big Shot and my Punches.  They make any paper-crafting project super easy!!

SWALLOWTAIL WITH PAPILION POTPOURRI!

Well, "That Michelle" blew my mind with a new technique today!  Check out this card she made.
Here is a closeup view of the butterfly (I think I am in serious need of a new camera).  Trust me when I tell you that this picture does not do the butterfly justice at all.

For this lovely card "That Michelle" used the Swallowtail Stamp and embossed it with Soft Suede Ink and clear embossing powder.  The sentiment is from Chalk Talk, and it is also embossed.  The little leaf sprig is from the Papaya Collage stamp set and the butterflies are from the Papilion Potpourri Stamp Set.  She used the punches that match the butterfly stamps, so she didn't have to cut those little guys out.  The she made the butterfly by coloring some Vellum Cardstock and stamping on it and then using her stylus.  It is such a cool technique and looks so beautiful in real life.  I will definitely be sharing this idea in upcoming classes!!

If you need the supplies for this one, hop on over to my website and place your order!

A ROUND ARRAY MEETS SIMPLY PRESSED CLAY!

Check out all these great new products!!

Print Friendly and PDF
I saw this card (using a different sentiment) on Stampin' Connection (an awesome spot were demonstrators share their creations and talk business, etc....).  I love the new Simply Pressed Clay and had gotten the A Round Array stamp set for FREE so I decided to make this card.  I also used the Buttons and Blossoms Simply Pressed Caly Molds to mold the Simply Pressed Clay into these cute little button shapes.  The little scallop circles came from the A Round Array Stamp Set, and I used the new 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch to punch them out.  The sentiment is from a great new stamp set called Chalk Talk (which has matching framelits, that are on their way to my house right now).  AND the colors are part of the new 2013-2015 In Color Collection.  They are Pistachio Pudding, Crisp Cantaloupe and Coastal Cabana. You can order all the items to make this card 24/7 on my website!
