#SU! Sweet Candy canes Catalog CASE

 


I've shared before that when I find myself struggling to come up with creative designs, my go-to is to look at either Stampin' Up! catalogs or by going to sketch or color challenges. Once again this week, that is exactly where I found myself, and so I turned to the July-December Mini catalog for inspiration.

The card in the middle of page 8 (found below) was what inspired me.


The designers of this card chose to use a smaller card size than the traditional 4-1/4" x 5-1/2". And, they used more of the Designer Series Paper and an additional stamp bundle. I wanted to re-create the card but in a simpler fashion.

To get a similar look by stamping the candy cane, I used the basic technique of Markering. Watch the short video I made showing how this card came together, as well as the simple way to get a multi-colored look using Stampin' Up!'s Stampin' Write Markers.

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 ...
