March Class Projects

Here are the projects we made in my March classes.  Easter was the theme and I think these projects were perfect for the occasion.


This card idea was shared at Stampin' Up!'s Leadership conference back in January.  Theirs was a note-card sized card, but I wanted to make mine a 4-1/4"x5-1/2" sized card.  

Stamps:  Cheerful Critters, Crazy About You
Colors:  Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, Blushing Bride, Whisper White, So Saffron, Sahara Sand, Pistachio Pudding
Accessories:  Stampin' Dimensionals, Adventure Bound DSP stack


This beautiful card idea came from my friend Kathy Howes.  She said, however, that she got the idea from Dawn Griffith.  It uses the Sale-a-Bration paper, Irresistibly Yours designer series paper.  It's great for those emboss resist cards, and all the embossing has been done for you!

Stamps:  Crazy About You
Colors:  Blushing Bride, Whisper White, Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
Accessoris:  Stampin' Dimensionals, Pearls Basic Jewels, 2-Way Glue pen, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, Stampin' Sponges


The final project was this adorable basket.  It's made from the awesome Berry Basket Bigz L Die for the Sizzix Big-Shot.  Accented with a floral trim made using the Painted Blooms DSP, a bow made with the Bow Builder Punch.  This basket idea from Claudia Maser.

Colors:  Wild Wasabi, Melon Mambo
Accessories:  Sizzix Big-Shot, Berry Basket Bigz L Die, Handheld Stapler, Painted Blooms DSP, Bow Builder Punch, Mini Glue Dots

Thanks for stopping by.  Happy Stamping!

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...
