Hi there. I am a full time Mom and wife and a part-time therapist. I have been using Stampin' Up! products for over 12 years and became a demonstrator Feb of 2008. This is my hobby, my 'me' time. My kids like to stamp too, so you may see some of their projects mixed in. I am hoping to inspire, share ideas, and mostly have fun. I hope you enjoy my blog!
Here is the latest club cards we made. This stamp set is Inspired by Nature colored in using markers. The colors are Summer Sun, Garden Green and Chocolate Chip...ooo that reminds me I made chocolate chip muffins for breakfast and they were yummy!! We used Crystal Effects on the brown centers of the flowers and sprinkled clear Micro Beads on it to make it a little bumpy and shinny. This card was inspired by the pretty snowflakes that fell earlier in the week, not this half a foot of slush and muck we just got hammered with. This card is made with the Big Shot and the Movers and Shapers Curly Label Die. It cuts and scores the card leaving the curly label wherever you position the magnetic die. The stamps are from the Hostess level 2 set Christmas Punch and works wonderfully with the punches. We added a little Dazzling Diamonds for some sparkle. The card stock is Sahara Sand and Bashful Blue with Night of Navy ink.
Here are some cards from "stamp til ya cramp" which was last night.
This is a pocket card by Mary M using SU! Designer Series Paper 'Cast-a-Spell'. Thanks for the treats Mary. She even added a cute bookmark!
Here are cards made by Bea R and June W. I love the fun colors. Thanks for the chit-chat! I needed that!
This was my card swap which uses the grass from Inspired by Nature in white craft ink on Basic Black with cute little googly eyes peeking out. The phrases, 'spooky nights' and 'halloweenfrights' are from the set Halloween Frights punched out in old olive cardstock. The base card is Rich Razzelberry with a little border of old olive. The inside is done using the skeleton from Scary Skeleton with StazOn black ink and filled in using the white gel pen. I just love how this card turned out.
I hope you liked the cards. Thanks to Mary, Bea and June for sharing their card making talents with us.
