Scrapbook Pages

I stepped out of my comfort zone and made my first scrapbook pages today since joining Stampin' Up! almost 4 years ago. 

Our awesome DSP makes it so easy! 

So fun! 

Now to find some pictures to fill it! Maybe our pictures from Vacation Stamping School this weekend...

Contest Card Dashing Deer

Hello Stampers!

I'm making this post quickly today as I have a project that needs to be completed before bedtime tonight, but I just HAD to share this card 😉

This is what you have to look forward to in the new catalog! 

These elegant deer are part of the Dashing Deer Bundle and those beautiful snowflakes are from the Beautiful Blizzard bundle. All the snowflakes are die cut at one time with this new kind of all-in-one die set! These will be available in the Holiday Catalog starting September 5th!

And see that funky background? It was made by "pouncing" a wadded up piece of Saran Wrap on the cardstock after dipping it in Balmy Blue ink!

Cool huh?! 

Gotta run, but I hope you love this card as much as I do. 

If you don't have a demonstrator, I'd love to help you out with the supplies you need.

Color Your Season Christmas Offset Impossible Card

 Good morning Happy Stampers!

Today I have another Offset Impossible Card. This time it's Christmas themed. 🎄

I had to offset the fold line and snip two small sections of the card to make the display area big enough for the Color Your Season diecut opening.

I love the cool look you get when you stretch the copper trim over the opening. I colored the Gold Metallic-Edged ribbon & the rhinestone with my Stampin' Blends marker to make it blue.

I heat embossed the bell and added Wink of Stella to it. 

Only 18 more days or while supplies last to get your Blended Seasons Bundle. 

SUPPLIES:
Cardstock:  Garden Green & Real Red
DSP:  Under the Mistletoe
Bundle: Blended Seasons
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black
Embellishments: Metallic-Edged Ribbon, Rhinestones &  Wink of Stella
Extras: Stamparatus, Clear embossing powder

August Stray Ducklings Waddle

Welcome to our Stray Ducklings Blog Waddle. This month our theme is black & white with a touch of color. 
I love the new Balmy Blue, so that's the color I chose. 

And well, you can't lose with the Dandelion Wishes set. It's a must have for all stamp collections!

This card was inspired from Betsy Rouw-Rundle in a Facebook Demonstrator group I belong to. Betsy used browns on her card. 

And, if you know me, you know my cards are usually finished on the inside and the envelope. 

Of course I used my Stamparatus to get perfect images and replicate this card for the swap. 

This is my first talking video, so please bear with me as I step into the world of crafting through youtube. 

😊

Please continue waddling through our list of stampers. Next in line is the talented Sue Boerner . You'll be amazed at all the beautiful cards my fellow Ducklings have to share. 

~Happy Stamping!~

Autumn Offset Impossible Card

Happy Monday Y'all! It's been super muggy here in Illinois, so I've been busy making cards. 

Today's card features the new Blended Seasons Bundle

I used the Impossible Card creative fold, but I had to offset it due to the cut out size on the flap.

The star of the show is the copper trim that I stretched out across the opening of the cutout flap.

This bundle is only available this month. It has tons of options!

I water-colored the leaves using our re-inkers and the Aqua Brush.

The sentiment was stamped in Versa Mark then embossed with Copper Embossing powder. 

The copper trim and the linen thread were used to make bows. 

I die cut the leaves and placed a backing on them using Old Olive and Crushed Curry cardstock.

All that and it fits into a regular A2 envelope!

And that's it for today. 

~Happy Stamping~
