Better Late Than Never.....

As seems to be my life right now, I had every intention of posting these projects last month.  Well, that obviously didn't happen.  I'm learning to juggle new responsiblities I've taken on with the Bible study I'm a part of and the rest of life which includes my Stampin' Up! business.  Needless to say, stamping hasn't happened as much.  However, I'm working on rectifying that because I truly love stamping.  It relaxes me!

So, here is a project we made at my classes and clubs this last month.  The idea came from a swap I'd received at an OnStage event, but it was sized smaller than a 4-1/4" by 5-1/2" card.  I really wanted a gift card holder that would be sized for a regular card and envelope.

Making the card a regular card size required me to use 12" by 12" card stock.  
Here are the measurements:
Card Stock:  4-1/4" x 12", scored along the 12" length at 4", 9-1/2" and 11-1/2".  
Designer Series Paper:  1 each of 4" x 1-3/4"; 4" x 3-3/4"; 4" x 3-1/4"(inside).
You'll cut a small coffee cup from the designer series paper for the flap to stay closed, and it's mounted onto the front using a Stampin' Dimensional.
I used Tear & Tape to seal the edges, but any strong adhesive would work.

My customers loved this project, and I hope you'll have fun making your own too.

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 ...
