August Stamp Club Projects

Monday night I met with my stamp club up in Thornton.  The theme for the night was halloween.  And, since to me that means treats, most of the projects were treat related.

The first project was a card using the new Circle Card Thinlits die that make quick and easy flip cards. It's difficult to tell from the photo, but the bat is done using the heat & stick powder and adhering the new black glitter on top. 


The other side of the flip portion.  The die comes with a lot of additional dies to cut out embellishments, and the chevron pieces and the scallop are both from the same die.  The Witches Brew Designer Washi tape adds just a little more texture.


The 1" x 8" cellophane bags make super quick treats by just adding a simple topper.  Here, I used the 1-3/8" Circle and the Scallop Circle punches.  Jet Black Staz-On makes quick work of stamping onto the plastic.


This cute little bat was cased directly from the Holiday Catalog.  Look on page 5 and you'll see it!  It's made using basic black card stock adhered to a sheet of Multi-Purpose Adhesive then punched out using the 2-1/2" circle punch.  Cut it in half, then punch out smaller circles on the straight edge using the 1" & 3/4" circle punches.  Remove all but the center of one side's protective cover, attach pieces together at the center then dip into the black glitter.  

After you wrap a 1-1/8" x 3-1/4" piece of basic black paper (with the 'Bats about you' image stamped in the center w/Whisper White craft ink) around a nugget candy, attach to the bat wings after you remove the remaining protective cover.  Sprinkle more glitter to cover any additional sticky, if desired.  
Voila!  Cute little bat treats.



Thanks for stopping by.  Comments appreciated!

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...

Accordion Z-Fold Card Tutorial

  If you've been following me for awhile now, you know that I love the z-fold card. It's simple and yet a real "wow" for the recipient.  Today's card adds just a little twist, a few more folds. And, it's a great way to show-off the beautiful Designer Series Papers that Stampin' Up! sells too. I put together a video showing all the steps to put together this fun-fold card. And, at the end I share a few more projects that I made using it. 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) ...
