Ornamental Envelopes Wreath Card using the Stamparatus Video Tutorial

2020-08-28T12:24:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone! Today's card is one of the projects from my Stamps & Treats Class this month featuring the Ornamental Envelopes Bundle . I felt in love with the card featured in the August-December Mini Catalog (see page 40) and just had to case it! Well, I didn't have the bundle so I "had to" get it although it was NOT on my wish list..... I'm sure you can relate to that...!!! Right???

To make that wreath I tried to stamp the stem image 4 times without my Stamparatus. Well, it didn't work well...so I immediately got it out and tried! Whoa, it worked!!!

The coordinating Envelopes Die Set is so fun to dress up envelopes! In my class we die cut the envelope flap with one of the decorative dies. Then, we die cut a piece of Real Red Card Stock using the medium size of the scalloped edge die and adhere to the flap. We also stamped the dotted lines and the corner image on the front too. So fun!!!

Watch this video to learn how I made the card and envelope!

Celebrate Sunflowers Thank You Card

2020-08-20T13:43:00.001-07:00

Hello everyone! I'm having so much fun with the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle and can't seem to put it away just yet... Sounds familiar?

There is so much you can do with the Sunflowers Dies! For this card I used both positive and negative pieces of the die-cuts, and then ran the negative piece with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder before adhering to a piece of designer series paper (Flowers for Every Season DSP used here) with Tombow Liquid Glue. I love how the embossed texture appear on the card! Gorgeous!!!

August 2020 Online Card Club - Poinsettia Petals Join by August 15th

2020-08-06T18:35:00.005-07:00

Hello everyone! I am super excited about my August Online Card Club projects! This month I am featuring the new Poinsettia Palace Suite products from the August - December Mini Catalog. This suite is packed with gorgeous products and I focused on incorporating all the products from the suite (and more!) to create six pretty cards. If you are interested in learning more about my Online Card Club, make sure to scroll down to read the details and sign up by August 15th to receive this month's kit.

Sneak Peak Alert!!! Here is one of the cards from the August kit. I wanted to make a card that can be easily displayed during the holiday season so I designed a bridge card. This beautiful poinsettia was created using the new Red Velvet Paper.

How about the Beaded Pearls - trio of white pearls on a silver base used as a flower center? It's so pretty!!!

For this card I wanted to create a card that is not for Christmas so I paired the Poinsettia Petals Bundle with the Hallows Night Magic Stamp Set to make a Halloween card! I also used the new Black Glitter Paper, Iridescent Pearls and Metallic Mesh Ribbon. The background paper is the new Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper featured in the Poinsettia Palace Suite. You can easily change the sentiment to Merry Christmas if you want it for Christmas. Either way, it's a beautiful card!

Here is a video from Stampin' Up!

Hippo & Friends Dies (153585, $36.00)

June 2020 Online Card Club - Tasteful Touches JOIN TODAY!

2020-06-04T21:31:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone! I am super excited about my June Online Card Club projects! I had so much fun creating six artistic cards featuring the Tasteful Touches Bundle from the In Good Taste Suite in the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog.

The In Good Taste Suite features four amazing products in its suite - Tasteful Touches Bundle, In Good Taste Designer Series Paper, Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder, and In Good Taste Elements. I used them all for my projects!

Tasteful Touches Bundle (#154098)
$48.50

In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (#152494)
$21.00

Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder (#152718)
$9.00

In Good Taste Elements (#152476)
$6.50

SNEAK PEEK!!! Here are some of the cards included in this month's kit:

I love the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper! Beautiful layers and rich textures combine to make the perfect creation! Each sheet has photographic images of wood, tile, stone and other elements. Adjust color scheme to make the project feminine or masculine. I stamped directly on the card front DSP layer using some of the images from the Tasteful Touches Stamp Set! How fun!!! The Tasteful Touches Stamp Set offers versatile textures and all-season sentiments.

This card is very simple and easy. I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark on a die-cut frame from the Tasteful Labels Dies and heat-embossed with White Emboss Powder. The white embossed sentiment on designer series paper adds a nice touch to the focal point. I like how it turned out!

For the Night of Navy leaf die-cut I paired with the Nature's Thoughts Die Set which I am so glad to see in the new Annual Catalog. I really like the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder too.

It's hard to believe we are about to say good-bye to the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. I remember that the Magnolia Lane Suite was one of my first products that I just "had to" get! Does it sound familiar to you?

I offered a card class featuring the Magnolia Lane Suite last year and it was super popular. The original class was held as an in-person class in my studio and we made 16 cards. To offer this new class as online, I did change some of my cards so that they are simpler and require less stamping. And instead of 16 cards, you will make 20 cards and will have a plenty of leftover materials to make more! It also includes 3 cards that are step-up version featuring the Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set and its coordinating die set called Magnolia Memories Dies (available as a bundle until June 2nd).

NEW Silhouette Scenes Class To Go - Register by May 2nd!

2020-04-28T09:40:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone! I am super excited about my new Class To Go offer featuring the Silhouette Scenes Bundle. I don't know what was wrong with me not to realize how awesome the Sea A Silhouette Designer Paper was until I started playing with the paper a few days ago:-). It coordinates with the Silhouette Scenes Bundle so well and seriously I could not stop making cards!!! I ended up with 8 cards totally ignoring the fact that I am in the middle of organizing my studio:-). It looks like a tornado went through.....but these cards make me so happy!

Anyway I've decided to offer a Class To Go to share these beautiful cards with you! Do NOT wait to sign up for this class because I am only offering until May 2nd to register due to retiring products being included in the class fees. Most of these cards were made using the Shimmer Black Stampin' Emboss Powder which is retiring and only available while supplies last. This emboss powder is amazing and works very well with the Silhouette Scenes Stamp Set. Take a look at the word "inspire" below to see how beautiful the powder turned out. Absolutely gorgeous!!

I've been getting requests for graduation cards lately and have included awesome graduation cards and money holder in this Class To Go. I think the 2020 graduates deserve one-of-a-kind cards, don't you?

There is a cool technique that I've included in this Class To Go. I will teach you how to make this bridge card. It stands up well and gets flat so that you can put in a Stampin' Up! Medium Size Envelope. I added 2 hot air balloon punch-outs in the background. The Hot Air Ballon Punch is also retiring and is now being offered at 40% off. If you like, you can add on the Hot Air Balloon Punch to your class kit and take advantage of my add-on offer "FREE SHIPPING AND TAX" on the punch. Make sure to add the punch when you register for the class. FYI - Did you know you can make beautiful flowers using the Hot Air Balloon Punch? Oh, YES!!!

Silhouette Scenes Class To Go Details

Create eight awesome projects (seven cards and one money holder) using the See A Silhouette Suite products from Stampin' Up! The class kit will include supplies to make all 8 projects, the step-by-step PDF instructions, video tutorials and Stampin' Up! products (see below) that you get to keep (you will have a plenty of leftover to make more projects).

The following products are included in all the class fee options:

Half pack of See A Silhouette Designer Series Paper ( 6" x 12") - retiring
Shimmer Black Stampin' Emboss Powder - retiring
A spool of Crushed Curry Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon - retiring
A pack of Holiday Rhinestones

Please note that stamp images are not included in the kit due to Stampin' Up! policy. I am offering the Silhouette Scenes Bundle (Silhouette Scenes Stamp Set and Sweet Silhouette Dies) as an add-on at catalog price (FREE SHIPPING AND TAX) if you would like to finish your projects just like mine. Otherwise, you can use any stamps you already have.

For these projects you will need VersaMark Ink Pad and Heat Tool for heat embossing. I also used Daffodil Delight and Old Old Ink to color the flowers and stems with sponge daubers. You could use Stampin' Blends or Stampin' Write Markers etc.

Each class kit will be mailed to you by USPS Priority. I will do all the cutting, scoring and punching for you.

This Class To Go has 4 options to choose from (Priority Shipping included):

Kit Only - $40.00 (8 projects, Stampin' Up! products, PDF instructions and video tutorials).
Kit and Hot Air Balloon Punch - $50.80 (FREE shipping and tax on the punch)
Kit and Silhouette Scenes Bundle - $92 (FREE shipping and tax on the bundle)
Kit, Hot Air Balloon Punch and Silhouette Scenes Bundle - $102.80 (FREE shipping and tax on both add-ons)

Please email me for registration link!

Registration is open till May 2nd!

Expected shipping date is on or before May 11th.

Please note this is a preorder only and per Stampin' Up! policy. All class kits and included products will be ordered and prepared together once registration is closed. Because of this process, it takes about one week after the registration is closed for me to order class materials and prepare/organize class kits and then ship all of them.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Happy Stampin'!!!

March Card Club Projects & 2020 Sale-A-Bration Third Release

2020-03-25T17:19:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone! Today I am sharing these projects from my monthly card clubs. We had to make a major change to our Club workshops due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Normally we meet at my studio once a month and enjoy getting together to make the projects but we decided to stay home to keep us safe. Instead of getting together in person, we did virtually! I mailed out the project kits to all members first and then we did Facebook Live! It was about one hour long and for me I was happy to be able to connect with them this way although I do prefer in-person workshops:-). Well, I hate to admit it but thanks to the COVID-19 I came out of my comfort zone to try Facebook Live and taking videos. Also, I'm working to offer online classes in the upcoming months. So stay tuned!

Timeless Tulip Happy Easter, Happy Spring Card

When I designed my cards earlier, I was expecting to do in-person workshops so this card shown above was not the original card I intended to do for my Card Clubs. In order for me to follow Stampin' Up!'s policy (We are not allowed to send stamped images in a kit), so I had to make some changes to my original design. The kits I mailed out had no stamped images.

Two tulips and leaves are punched out of the Pleased as Punch Designer Series Paper using the Tulip Builder Punch. The center tulip is embossed with the Lace 3D Embossing Folder and embellished with a flower from the Frosted Flower Embellishments. I also added a pretty bow using the 1/4" Gorgeous Grape Striped Ribbon.

I love the stitched rectangle and lace border dies from the Nature's Thoughts Die Set (also coordinates with the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set) which is one of the Coordination Product Release.

Here is the Step-Up version. Instead of the embossed tulip in the center, I stamped one of the tulip images from the Timeless Tulips Stamp Set. I also stamped the stem images on the circle die-cut from the Stitched Shapes Dies.

Well Dressed Happy Birthday Card

This card features two brand-new products from the Sale-A-Bration Second Release Brochure - Well Dressed Stamp Set and Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper. I love how versatile the Flowering Foils DSP is! For this card I used my Sponge Brayer to apply Night of Navy ink for a quick change of color. You can try this technique with any color you have!

The Well Dressed Stamp Set is a nice manly set of stamps. When you can get it for free with a $50 order, why not? Right? I stamped the tie image with Night of Navy ink and then colored the collar with Light Smoky Slate Blends Marker.

The Basic Gray card stock layer is embossed with the Absolutely Argyle Embossing Folder which is my new favorite embossing folder!

This Step-Up version card features another brand-new stamp set called Tags In Bloom from the Sale-A-Bration Second Release. It coordinates with the Label Me Lovely Punch. To be honest I was not sure how I'd like the stamp set until I actually used it to make another card. This stamp set is pretty cool! I loved the way these photopolymer stamps really stamp well! I also stamped the stitched outline frame image and punched out with the Label Me Loverly Punch. The sentiment is from the Witty-Cisms Stamp Set. It's pretty simple and versatile!

Tulip Builder Punch Party Favor

Here is a super quick and fun party favor you can make using the Tulip Builder Punch. I punched out 4 tulips out of Lovely Lipstick Card Stock and adhered to the all four sides of box. The box is cut to 2-3/4" x 2-3/4" and scored at 3/4" on all 4 sides. Make 4 slits on the score lines (2 slits on one side and 2 slits on the opposite side) and fold on the score lines to create a box. Super easy!!!
