September Club & Class Projects

As promised, here are the measurements and details for the projects made at my September stamp clubs and classes. This first card was modified from a swap that I received from Barb Duran, a fellow Stampin' Up!  Demonstrator.  The only changes that I made to it, were to use the new Early Espresso Core-dinations card stock through the Sizzix Big-Shot using the new Woodgrain Textured Impressions Folder (#127821, $7.95).  This new card stock is super cool!  After it is textured, you use the Stampin' Sanding System (#129367, $3.95) and dust buddy (#129366, $2.50) to sand and expose the fibers, and then clean the dust from the surface.  A few neat effect. Stamp Sets: Lovely as a Tree (#115026 [w] $27.95 or #127793 [c] $19.95) & Perfectly Penned (#122890 $16.95 [w] or #122892 $12.95 [c]) This next card uses another neat technique called triple-time stamping.  I love it because it looks so involved and yet is so simple to reproduce!  Here ...

It's Been Cased

At this last month's Kindred Inkers Meeting (my adopted up-line's) group, this was one of the cards we made for make & take.   I liked it so much, that I thought it would make great thank-you's for my stamping party hostesses and customers for the month of August.  Here are the 2 different, yet very similar cards that I came up with by "casing" the original. The first one uses the Wonderfall set from the Holiday catalog #128084, $24.95 [w] or #128087, $17.95 [c]. The second card uses the set French Foliage, #120845, $19.95 [w] or #121166, $14.95 [c]. Each section has been embossed using a different textured impressions embossing folder and the Sizzix Big-Shot.  This was done after  the stamping.    The greeting is from Petite Pairs #122495, $28.95 [w] or #122497, $20.95 [c].  It was stamped onto Very Vanilla card stock, then punched out using the large oval punch and layered onto a piece or either Chocolate Chip or Old ...

Nothing Better

There is nothing better (at least for a stamper) than having the opportunity to attend a conference with a bunch of other stampers.  Not to mention, spending the day with and stamping with a couple of great stampers. This past Saturday, Stampin' Up! held a regional seminar right here in Denver.  It was a great day of inspiration and sharing as well as stamping.  Two of my downline, Jen and Sherri, were able to attend as well. I've been busy stamping, so I'll get to taking the photos soon so that I can post what I've been up to.  Until then.....
