January Stamp Club Projects

This month for stamp club, we made Valentine's Day projects.  The first 2 were simple valentine's cards and all projects used the stamp set Language of Love out of the Occasions catalog.  I was fortunate enough to have received this stamp set at the SU! Leadership conference I attended this month.


This card was adapted from one by fellow SU! demonstrator, Gail Sachtleben.  It is stamped onto Crumb Cake card stock using Basic Black ink.  To "bling it up" just a little, I added a heart punched from Silver Glimmer Paper using the Small Heart punch and added a small Real Red heart punched out using the Owl Builder punch.

The greeting is from Teeny Tiny Wishes, and is a great all occasion greeting stamp set!


This card was an inspiration from Shelli Gardner, SU!'s CEO and co-founder.  She demonstrated it on main stage at Leadership.  The only change I made was using the stamp set Gorgeous Grunge to make the splatter's and using the masking technique (placing a sticky note punched out with the Full Heart punch over the stamped heart).


I couldn't resist making these adorable monster valentine's!  They are only available through Monday, January 27th unless supplies are depleted before then.  Sold in packages of 18 with everything you need except the candy (erasers or other items could be placed inside the arms as well), they are a great buy for $5.95 each, boy or girl monsters.  The boy monster is much like the girl, but I wanted to show their backside.  It's so cute!


Finally, we made these little valentine treats using the Angled Tag Topper punch.  See my previous post for details!

Thanks for stopping by!  Comments always 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...
