Coffee Card


This is a card that I helped a friend make for her friend.  It used a lot of retired Stampin' Up! products.  Right after we made this card the new catalog came out and it would have been soooooooooooo much easier to make with the new "Coffee Cafe" Stamp set and Coffee cups Framelit dies!  Oh, well... now I have the Coffee Cafe Bundle (from p. 31 in the catalog) and now I'm ready for the next coffee card!

Birthday Card

Birthday card for a dear friend....

Used Magical Mermaid stamp set and Seaside EF.  Also used Shimmery White CS and re-inkers (Lemon Lime Twist, Dapper Denim and Tranquil Tide) with the Large Aqua painter.   You really can't see it in the picture but I used a bit of wink of Stella for some glitz!

A Thanksgiving card for you...

I used the Painted Harvest set from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini catalog 2017.  This is such a versatile set (you can use it for a poinsettia for Christmas, also).  It is a very forgiving two step stamp set... really doesn't matter how closely it is aligned.

Special Promotion - starting today!

  





Two projects



To projects .... just to show I can do something other than cards... but to be fair the first one is an almost exact take on the Hello Life project in our last Stampin' Up! catalog.  I won the Hello Life project kit at one of my Upline events (Spring Fling or Fall Fest) and then bought the Hello Life stamp set to finish it up.  

The second project is from our 2017 Fall Fest.  It was done with modge podge and was way out of my comfort zone!  It used the Painted Harvest Stamp Set and the Leaf punch from the 2017 Holiday Catalog; which then, of course, I had to order!  What do you think?  I think it came out really nice, but only because my Upline and the Demo that created it are so talented!

A Birthday card for my hubby!



I used Kelly Acheson Camouflage background technique for these cards.  The top one I did using "Big on Birthday" saying and some retired stars as well as linen thread.  The Stars were done with the star border from the mini treat bag thinlits.

The bottom one my 6 year old grandson did and I think he did a wonderful job.  He did the technique and stamped the turtle (retired SU) all by himself!

Welcome Home card


This is a welcome home card using the new "At Home with you" Stamp set from Stampin' Up!'s Annual catalog 2017-2018.  I also used the At Home Framelits to cut out the door and the Brick Wall Embossing Folder for the background. 

Thank you for looking!

"Beautiful You" Birthday card




This card uses the High Tide, Balloon Celebrations, and Beautiful You stamp sets from Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog 2017-2018.  The balloons on the inside were done using the Balloon Bouquet punch, window sheets, and a retired Embossing folder (I think I used Decorative Dots EF), but you could use any EF like our new Polka Dot Basics EF.  My daughter liked her Birthday card this year. Yay!
