January Stamp Club Projects

Here are the projects that my stamp club will be making tonight.  The first project is a card featuring designer series paper from the 2013 Sale-a-Bration products.  Sale-a-Bration starts tomorrow!  It's the biggest sale that Stampin' Up! has every year.  Free products with each $50 in merchandise ordered is just one of the sales.  The others are for hosting a party and for signing up to become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  How would you like to choose from up to $156.50 in Stampin' Up! merchandise for only $99?  




Anyway, here's the first card.  I received a swap at convention this year made by fellow Demonstrator, Kathy Stanton.  I loved how simple the layout was.  I used Linen Thread instead of drawing the line, and added paper piercing around the edges.  I've left off the greeting, but will have the stamp set, A Word for You available so the ladies can put what greeting they want on the card front.




This next card uses products from the new Spring Catalog.  The paper is More Amore Specialty Designer Series Paper, and the small hearts come from the Hearts a Flutter Bundle.  The greeting comes from one of the great Hostess Only stamp sets in the Annual Catalog, Wacky Wishes.


This last project is a blast from the past!  When I attended my first SU! Convention back in 2002, we made a decorated gift bag that used the same idea.  It's a lunch sack, covered with card stock both front and back.  Super simple, and it makes for a nice, quick packaging.

Here I used the Jumbo Stampin' Around wheel, Baby Tees, inked onto a Basic Gray stamp pad.  Each "tee" is then colored in using Stampin' Write Markers.  The small ticket is from a new stamp set in the Spring Catalog called That's the Ticket.

Thanks again for stopping by.

I am totally in love with the banner cards. . . I think I might have a problem with how much I am obsessed with bunting. I think I am going to have to buy the framelits (cause I am buying the big shot) next month. :)

2011 Desktop Calendar

This month in my stamp club meetings, I had the gals make these desktop calendars. It was a big hit. The image to the left of the calendar can be changed according to the season (winter, spring, summer & fall) by removing the image and placing one of the other 3 onto the velcro dot (attached behind the image). The corresponding side of the velcro dot is placed on the back side of the images. I used the stamp set A Flower for all Seasons , #111592, $14.95. And, the extra images are stored inside in a small cellophane bag. The calendar base takes only 1 sheet of card stock to make, measuring 9" x 6-1/2". With simple scoring and folding, it goes together very quickly. Another demonstrator had shared the calendar file that is printed onto printer paper and cut to size. All fit into the 1/2" library clip from the clips assortment (#112580; $6.95). There are 8 of them included in the package along with a couple of other style of paper clips. While they are still ...

#SU! Christmas Season Simple Elegance Card

When you participate in a swap with other Stampin' Up! Demonstrators, you often get some great ideas! Such was the case this month for me. I received in the mail a swap I participated in (hint: I share the card sent to me in my video tutorial!) this month. My good friend often includes me in her team swaps, and I'm so grateful. I loved the layout and immediately thought of the Christmas Season stamp set. This layout goes together so quickly that you could easily put together a stack of Christmas cards in no time. Change up the colors, and have a variety, or keep them all the same. Whatever you decide, I hope you'll try this out. Here are the measurements for the card: Sahara Sand cardstock: 5-1/2"x8-1/2", scored at 4-1/4" horizontally  Blackberry Bliss cardstock: 3-7/8"x5-1/8" Basic White cardstock: 3-3/4"x5"; 4"x5-1/4" (inside); scrap for the greeting large enough to be cut from the Picture This Die Vellum cardstock : 1-1/8...

I hope you'll check it out.  Measurements: Evening Evergreen cardstock: 5-1/2" x 11", score along the 11" side at 1-3/4", 3-1/2", 5-1/4" & 7"; 3" x 6", score along the 6" side at 3" Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper: 2 pieces cut at 1-1/2" x 5-1/4" and 2 pieces cut at 2-3/4" x 2-3/4" Basic White cardstock: 3-3/4" x 5-1/4" and one piece 3" x 3"  Be sure to use the November host code: PA43R2KF (good through 11/30/2022) ...
