#SU! Artistically Inked Birthday Card

 


When the new catalog was first previewed, I fell in love with this suite of products! A little outside my usual style, but I just love how the colors and the artistic flair all come together. When I needed to make some In-Color swaps and send my monthly team handmade cards out, this is what I decided upon.


It looks quite a bit more involved than it really is. To be honest, the most time consuming thing about this card is cutting the gold foil leaf from the Artistic Dies!

Measurements:

Polished Pink 8-1/2"x11" cardstock: 5-1/2"x8-1/2" & scored along the 8-1/2" side at 4-1/4"; 4"x5-1/4"
Expressions In Ink 12"x12" Specialty DSP: 2"x5"
Gold Foil Sheets: 2"x3"
Basic White 8-1/2"x11" cardstock: 4"x5-1/4"; 2-3/4" x 5"; 1/2"x3" (can use little extra from cutting the inside layers)

Here's a step-by-step video I put together showing how to make this beautiful card:

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 ...

  Do you ever need a quick, but 'wow' kind of card? When don't you, would be my response! That was the inspiration for this weeks card and video tutorial. The Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder is part of the next round of Online Exclusive products that will be available for purchase beginning July 1st. This huge embossing folder creates an intricate and detailed 'image' perfect for simple to elaborate projects. Since I'm more of a simple project kind of gal, that's the direction I went with.

#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...
