I Dig You Valentine

Hi Stamping Friends,

My little grandsons LOVE trucks (I know, what little boys don't), so I knew I had to make a Valentine using this set.  I also used some colors from a previous ColourQChallenge.

The colors used are Crumb Cake for the base, layer 1 is Riding Hood Red, layer 2 is Whisper White.  The truck is colored in Old Olive and More Mustard.  The wheels are Basic Black.  I used Stampin' Write Markers to color this stamp.  I stamped the truck on scrap paper and cut out the bed to pop up on Stampin' Dimensionals.  I stamped love (without the brackets) from Tiny Tags and punched using the Jewelry Tag Punch.  Hearts are die cut in Riding Hood Red using the Fashionable Hearts Embosslits Die in the Occasions Mini Catalog.  Silver Brads are added to the wheels.  I die-cut the smallest fashionable heart in Red Glimmer Paper. 

I Dig You is such a cute set for little boys and is available from the current Idea Book & Catalog.  The hearts and LOVE you at the top are from a set available through the Sale-A-Bration brochure called Sprinkled Expressions.  I used a Riding Hood Red Stampin' Write Marker to color just a portion.  This set is not available for purchase, but can be FREE with a $50 purchase before shipping and tax.  It has some awesome stamps in it.

Perfectly Penned Birthday

Hi Stamping Friends,

Here is a card sample for January's class.  With a new year comes a new format to my classes.  I provided a simple sketch with basic measurements, a variety of card stock and an assortment of designer series papers.   This card has a base of Basic Gray.  Whisper white card stock is embossed using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  "Happy Birthday" is from the very cool stamp set, Perfectly Penned, and is stamped on Whisper White card stock using Riding Hood Red Classic Ink.  The Designer Series Paper is from the collection called Twitterpated, featured in the new Occasions Mini Catalog. 

The focal image is layered on Basic Gray card stock and popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals.  You can always click on the photo for a closer look.

Snow Much Fun Christmas

Hi Stamping Friends,

I want to share one of the Christmas cards I sent this year, inspired by a card I saw made by Linda Heller.  We also made these in class this month. Everyone loved it and really enjoyed making it.

I used the Stampin' Up! set called Snow Much Fun.  Marina Mist card stock is a great color to use for winter cards and perfect for snowmen.  I also used the Frostwood Lodge Designer Series Paper for the "ribbons" on the medallion.

The snowman was stamped on Vellum card stock and in Basic Black Classic Ink and colored on the back side with Basic Gray, Pumpkin Pie, Marina Mist and Real Red Stampin' Write Markers.  It's layered on Whisper White to really make the colors stand out.  I used Mini Glue Dots sparingly under colored portions of the Snowman, so the adhesive wouldn't show through the Vellum card stock.

The Whisper White card stock layered on the card front was run through the Big Shot using the Snowburst Embossing folder.  The medallion was stamped with a greeting from Petite Pairs stamp set and punched with the 1-3/8" circle punch.  This is layered on the 1-3/4" Scallop Circle.

This is such a cute, cute set.  I'll be showing another card we made in class using the same set.  The Frostwood Lodge DSP and the Snowburst Embossing Folder are in the Holiday Mini Catalog, which expires on Jan. 3rd.  So, if you were planning on buying these, be sure you get them before January 3, 2012!

Hello, Doily

Hi Stamping Friends,

I finally purchased the Hello, Doily stamp and don't know why I waited so long.  I love it!  I saw a card on Lynn Starzl's blog and was inspired to make this one.  This card shows a technique called Emboss Resist and it's so easy!

The card base is Wisteria Wonder card stock.  The next layer up is Pool Party card stock.  The focal images are stamped on Whisper White card stock.

First, I stamped the floral spray from the stamp set, Just Believe, in Wisteria Wonder classic ink.  Next, I stamped Hello, Doily in Versamark, dusted with Clear Embossing Powder and heat embossed with the Heat Tool.  Then, I sponged Pool Party and Wisteria Wonder over the embossed image and out to the edges.  I wiped with a tissue to remove any excess ink that might be sitting on the embossed areas.  I used the Paper Piercing Tool in the center of the doily and added an In Color Printed Designer Brad.  The Pool Party 3/8" Ruffled Ribbon bow is wrapped to the back side and adhered with SNAIL on the back of the Pool Party card stock.  I used the clear mount version of Just Believe and used Clear Block "E".  This is added to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.  I just love Pool Party paired with Wisteria Wonder!  What do you think?  If you have a minute, please let me know by leaving a comment.

Just Believe has so many great images, suitable for many occasions.  See?

Up, Up & Away Meets a Challenge

Hi Stamping Friends,

Thanks for visiting today!  I've been crazy busy with life this week and will be catching up with my posts for you.  I made this card for two challenges.  You know I love both sketch challenges and color challenges.  This week's ColourQ's cQc#110  uses the colors Soft Suede, Peach Parfait, Dusty Durango, Pool Party and Whisper White.  The sketch is from this week's Technostamper's TSSC199.   The photo is a little dark and shows much softer in person.

The card base is Soft Suede card stock.  The next layer is Pool Party card stock. 

The focal images uses the Stampin' Up! set called Up, Up & Away.  This set has great images and sentiments.  The balloons are stamped in Dusty Durango (ret), Pool Party and Peach Parfait classic inks.  The baskets, as well as the birds, are stamped in Soft Suede classic ink.  I decided to add a mat behind the Whisper White card stock in Soft Suede card stock.  To remain current with Stampin' Up! inks/paper, you can easily substitute Cajun Craze for the Dusty Durango.

The greeting medallion consistes of a Modern Label Punch in Pool Party card stock, a 1-3/8" Circle Punch in Peach Parfait card stock and the greeting stamped in Soft Suede classic ink on Whisper White and punched using the 1-1/4" Circle Punch.  I added 2 brads from the Regals Brad Collection, after piercing holes with the Paper Piercing Tool and the Mat Pack.  This is attached using Mini Glue Dots.  SNAIL Adhesive is used throughout the card unless otherwise noted.

Check out all the images from this great and whimsical stamp set - Up, Up & Away.  I used the Clear Mount version and Clear Block "B" will accomodate all the images in this set.

Happy Halloween!

Hi Stamping Friends,

I hope you're all ready for trick or treating today.  My heart goes out to all of you in the North that have been blasted by the early snowfall!  I hope you're staying warm and have power and don't really have to go anywhere for a few days.

Here's a card we made in class this month.  I've seen the coloring of the focal image all over the internet so have no specific person to give credit to.  Whomever you are, thank you for your inspiration.

This is called a side step card.  You start with the same size card base as your typical card, 5-1/2" x 8-1/2".

I don't have step by step photos to show you how I did the cutting and scoring, but do have the measurements and steps for you.  Practice on printer paper before using your good card stock.

1.  I started with a piece of Basic Black card stock - 5-1/2" x 8-1/2".  I placed it in my Fiskars Cutter with the short end at the top and the left edge at the 3" cutting line.  I positioned the cutter at the 1" mark on the ruler and cut down to the 6-1/2" mark.  This gives you a left side that is 3" and a right side of 2-1/2".  If you're not familier with Fiskars Cutter, it's pictured below and the ruler I'm referring to is the clear plastic along the right that the cutter floats in.

2.  Turn your piece clockwise one quarter turn so the long edge and the 3" width are at the top.  Score at 4-1/4" just to the cut line.  The remaining score lines are going to be from the cut edge down. Score at 1", 2", 3-1/4", 4-1/2" and 6-1/2", from the cut edge down.

3.  With the 3" width on your left, crease the score line on  that side in the mountain fold /\.   On the right side the 1" will be a mountain fold /\; 2" score a valley fold \/; 3-1/4" mountain /\; 4-1/2" valley \/ and 6-1/2" a mountain fold /\.  You're finished with your card base.

I used the House of Haunts stamp set for this card.  The house and the greeting are stamped in Versamark on Whisper White card stock and heat embossed using Black Embossing Powder and the Heat Tool.

The moon is masked with a post-it note circle punched with the 1-3/8" Circle Punch.  Make sure you punch where some of the sticky will still be on the circle.  I started sponging with Daffodil Delight classic ink, covering all the white space down to the graveyard, including the windows.  Next, I used Pumpkin Pie Classic Ink, leaving the Daffodil Delight showing close to the moon.  This is followed by Tangerine Tango sponging and ending with Perfect Plum sponging right around the edges.  I removed the mask and dragged the sponge with Perfect Plum across the moon a little bit - can't really see it in the picture - to look like clouds.  I colored the windows that had been covered by the mask with the Daffodile Delight Stampin' Write marker.  I sponged the bottom tombstone area with Old Olive Classic Ink.  This piece is layered on Basic Black  and Pumpkin Pie card stock and attached to the card using SNAIL Adhesive.

I cut a strip of Old Olive card stock and and stamped the pumpkin from the same set in Versamark, to give a little tone on tone.  Then, I snipped the long edge with my Paper Snips to look like grass.  This is attached to the card front using SNAIL Adhesive. 

The greeting is layered on Pumpkin Pie card stock and attached using SNAIL.

The pumpkins were made using the Large Oval Punch, the 1" Circle Punch and the 3/4" Circle Punch.  I punched 3 of each and sponged the edges in Pumpkin Pie Classic Ink, before layering with SNAIL.  I used a scrap of Old Olive card stock for the stem and leaves.

I added a piece of Whisper White card stock on the inside left for my message.

This is an interesting fold for any type of card.  Depending upon where you cut, you can make a center step card with the tall section in the middle, narrower steps on the sides...the possibilities are endless.  House of Haunts is a great spooky stamp set without being too scary.  The owl in the tree is pretty cool, too!  As always, all supplies used are ©Stampin' Up!.

Stamps:  House of Haunts (111574)

Boo! Boo! Boo!

Hi Stamping Friends,

Since I've had quilts on the brain lately, I decided to make a little crazy Halloween-colored quilt.  As always, all supplies used are from Stampin' Up!  I've had my Bigz Clear Scallop Square Die for quite a while now and haven't used it yet, so I placed a piece of folded Basic Black card stock on the die leaving the fold just below the top row of scallops.

I consider the background the focal point on this card.  I started by drawing a square approximately 4".  I then drew lines in a random fashion to create the crazy quilt pattern.  I layered pieces of Lucky Limeade, Pumpkin Pie and Rich Razzleberry card stock, as well as pieces of Rich Razzleberry and Pumpkin Pie Patterns from the Brights Patterns Designer Series Paper Stacks.  I placed my pattern on top and used a ruler and rotary cutter to cut the pattern.  Then, I mixed and matched the colored card stock and DSP Patterns into a pleasing design.
 

I glued these to a piece of Whisper White card stock using SNAIL Adhesive and squared up the piece to 3-3/4" square.  I ran this through the Big Shot in the Lattice Square Embossing Folder and then  layered it on another piece of Whisper White card stock.

I placed a piece of 1/4" Basic Black Grosgrain ribbon on the left and adhered the ends to the back side of the piece.  I, then, glued this to the card body using SNAIL Adhesive.

I used the Owl Builder Punch and punched an owl body from Whisper White card stock.  I trimmed off the little feet and turned it upside down to make a ghost.  I added a scrap piece of the 1/4" Basic Black Grosgrain and two little white "eyes" from the Owl Builder punch.  I used a little Crystal Effects to attach them to the ribbon.  The mouth is one of the eye parts from the Owl Builder punch.  This is attached to a Basic Black tag, punched with the Extra-Large Tag punch, with Stampin' Dimensionals.  The tag is attached to the card front using Mini Glue Dots.

"Boo" from the Tiny Tags stamp set is stamped in Basic Black classic ink on Whisper White, Lucky Limeade and Pumpkin Pie card stock scraps.  These are punched using the Jewelry Tag Punch and are glued near the center of the ribbon.  A piece of the Basic Black Grosgrain is slid under this and tied in a knot.  I always try and add any of the "lumpy" pieces after the layers are adhered to the card body.  It makes it so much easier to apply the SNAIL to a flat surface.

The owl body makes such a cute little ghost, doesn't it?  Have you used the Owl Builder Punch for anything than what it was intended for?  Please leave me a comment and let me know!  I always love to hear of different ways of using things.

Supplies...

Stamps:  Tiny Tags (C-118592, W-118091)

Paper:  Basic Black (121045), Pumpkin Pie (105117); Lucky Limeade (122926) and Whisper White (100730) card stocks;  Brights Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack (117155)

Elegant LInes and Dasher

Hi Stamping Friends,

Here is a card we made in class this month.  The Dasher stamp is one of my all time favorites.  It is an individual stamp from Stampin' Up!'s a la carte section of the catalog.

The card base is Whisper White card stock.  The next layer is also Whisper White card stock.  This one has been run through the Big Shot using the gorgeous Elegant Lines Embossing Folder. "Peace on Earth" is from the stamp set, Four the Holidays.  It is stamped in Versamark and dusted with Silver Embossing Powder.  I applied the Heat Tool to melt the embossing powder.  Is it just me, or does everyone love to see the metallic embossing powders just explode into shininess? 

At this point, I stamp my sentiment inside and heat emboss as I did with the greeting on the front.  You should always leave yourself a second chance to stamp the inside whenever possible, because, well, nobody's perfect.  This way if you don't like how it came out, you can refold the card body and use your front layer to cover up your least favorite result.

A piece of Whisper White Organza Ribbon is placed across the embossed layer and adhered on the back side.  This layer is attached to the card front using a fairly generous amount of SNAIL adhesive.  I used the new Dazzling Details, a glitter glue,  from the Holiday Mini catalog and "filled in" some of the embossed circles to add some sparkle.  Set this aside to give the glue time to dry.   This is one of my favorite new products in the Holiday Mini Catalog.

Dasher is stamped on Whisper White card stock in Versamark and heat embossed in silver as above.  This is layered on a piece of Brushed Silver card stock.  It's attached to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals. 

A second piece of Whisper White Organza ribbon is slipped under the previously attached piece and tied in a knot.  I snuck a Mini Glue Dot under the knot to keep it in place.

Supplies...

Stamps:  Dasher (116816);  Four the Holidays (116921)

Paper:  Whisper White (100732) and Brushed Silver (100712) card stocks

Ink:  VersaMark (102283)

Accessories:  Big Shot (113439); Elegant Lines Embossing Folder (119277);  Heat Tool (100005);  Silver Embossing Powder (109131);  Dazzling Details (HM-124117);  Whisper White Organza Ribbon (114319);  SNAIL Adhesive (104332, Refill-104331);  Mini Glue Dot (103683);  Stampin' Dimensionals (104430)

Isn't this an elegant card?  It would be very fast and easy to make a dozen in no time at all.  One of the advantages in having white on white layers is that if your greeting isn't as straight as you would like, you can mount your layer a little off, keeping your greeting straight, and it won't be noticeable at all!  I'd love to hear what you think of this card.  Please leave a comment and make my day!

All supplies are Stampin' Up! only, as always.  They are available in My Stampin' Up! Store (click Shop Now to browse the store) or by contacting me at the Email Me button in the next sidebar.

Top Note Thank You

Hi Stamping Friends,

I needed to make a few thank you cards for quilter friends, so decided to bring back the quilted top note design.  They all like bright colors, so I'm using the Brights Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack. 

I punched twelve 1-1/4" squares in assorted colors/patterns and arranged them in a design I liked.  I used SNAIL Adhesive to glue these on to a piece of 4" x 5" Whisper White card stock in three rows of four.  I trimmed off any excess white and marked the centers of each side.  I lined up the tick marks with the points on the Top Note die and ran it through the Big Shot.  Then, I trimmed off the 1/8" edge.  I also ran a piece of Basic Black card stock through using the Top Note die.  I layered these using SNAIL Adhesive for a nice contrast.  It really pops with the Basic Black border.  Finally, I ran this piece through the Big Shot using the Lattice Square Embossing Folder.

I used a bow maker and 1/4" Basic Black Grosgrain Ribbon to make a small bow.  I wrapped the ends to the back and secured with SNAIL. 

I stamped Thank You from the stamp set, Curly Cute, in Basic Black classic ink on Whisper White card stock and punched using the Modern Label Punch.  I also punched two more from Basic Black card stock.  I cut one in half along the length and the other in half along the width and adhered to the back of "Thank You" using SNAIL Adhesive. 

I attached the "quilt" to the card front using a very generous amount of SNAIL Adhesive.  Then, I added the greeting with Stampin' Dimensionals. 

I love it and hope they will, too!  What do you think?  Let me know.  I love reading your thoughts on my cards.
