Aug 9, 2017 | 2017-18 Annual Catalog, Bundle & Save, Cards - Thank You, Cracked Pot Stamper Creations, DOstamper STARS Thursday Challenge |
Coffee Cafe-Thanks a Latte card is the perfect way to say “thank you” to that special friend that is always there for you…just like your morning coffee or in my case, Diet Coke.
Time for the DOstamper STARS Thursday Challenge, this week it is a “Sketch Pad” Challenge.
I was inspired by the versatility of this sketch and the endless opportunities for creativity.
I love that this card was so simple to put together because Stampin’ Up! offers so many products that work together perfectly…I know they planned it that way but it sure makes my life easier. So I have extra time to share a cup of joe with a friend.

Aug 7, 2017 | 2017-18 Annual Catalog, 3-D, Big Shot, Bundle & Save, CaSE the Catty (CTC), Cracked Pot Stamper Creations, DSP, Treat Box |
Lemon Zest…Add a little zest to your life, even on the most bitter of days.
When life gives you lemon stamps, make lemon-stamped projects!
Ever find yourself wanting to stamp but don’t know where to begin?
I have.
When that feeling happens to me, I turn to the pages of my Stampin’ Up! catalog for inspiration.
Today’s image that we are going to Copy and Selectively Edit is on page 60 of the new Annual Catalog.
This image was selected because it is a hexagon shaped box and we thought it would be fun to try a 3-D project.
Lemon Zest Hexagon Box
- Emboss 1-3/4″ x 5″ piece of Wild Wasabi cardstock using Layering Leaves Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
- Stamp lemon (Lemon Zest stamp set) with Daffodil Delight ink (stamped off for lighter image) on Whisper White cardstock. Stamp sentiment using Basic Black Archival ink.
- Punch out with Lemon Builder Punch.
- Leaves are stamped with Wild Wasabi ink, one full strength and one stamped off. Punch leaves and adhere to lemon with glue dots.
- Using Window Box Thinlits Dies and Foil Frenzy Specialty Designer Series Paper, create box. Click here for video instructions to assemble box.
- Crease Wild Wasabi cardstock over box, wrap with Basic Black Baker’s Twine, tie knot. Attach Gold Mini Sequin Trim with a bow.
- Adhere lemon to box with Stampin’ Dimensional.
TIP: make sure you put your goodies inside box prior to tying it closed ;o)
Incidentally, if you do not have a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator or a catalog-please let me know as I would love to pop one in the mail for you and earn your business.
I’m doing this CaSE the Catty sharing with my friend, Dawn Olchefske. Be sure to check her CaSE out too!
Always take the scenic route.

Aug 4, 2017 | 2017-18 Annual Catalog, Bundle & Save, Cracked Pot Stamper Creations, Swaps |
I was so excited on Monday to share the Daisy Delight Bundle swaps I received that I forgot to share the card that I had made, so here it is:
With the Daisy Delight Bundle you can picture yourself lying in the sun, sipping your favorite beverage, kids playing nearby, soft music playing, and everything on your to-do list and every household chore is already done.
That’s the same feeling you’ll get from this lovely floral stamp set. It really is just delightful.
TIP: Stamp the daisy image and then punch out the image for flowers in a flash. Stamp and punch multiple flowers for a more full flower.
Swaps: Daisy Delight Bundle
I hope you enjoyed seeing and were inspired by these beautiful Daisy Delight Bundle swap cards.
Always take the scenic route.

WooHoo!! The Daisy Delight Bundle is available!!
With the Daisy Delight Bundle you can picture yourself lying in the sun, sipping your favorite beverage, kids playing nearby, soft music playing, and everything on your to-do list and every household chore is already done.

TIP: Stamp the daisy image and then punch out the image for flowers in a flash. Stamp and punch multiple flowers for a more full flower.
What is a Swap?
The best way I can explain what a swap is to compare it to a cookie exchange.
Each stamper makes a number of cards and then trades them with other stampers.
It is far easier to make 15 of one card than 15 different cards.
Why Do I Swap?
- Swapping is one of the ways I like to connect within the Stampin’ Up! community of demonstrators.
- It is a GREAT way to share ideas and learn new techniques.
- And by participating in swaps I also am able to acquire lots of samples for my customers viewing pleasure.
- Ready to see some swaps?

This image was selected because it has a fun layout that could be adapted to many different sentiments and stamp sets. When I first looked at this picture, I immediately knew I wanted to use the new Ribbon of Courage stamp set.
My motivation was two-fold with this card…
- the stamp set and catalog image
- Prostate Cancer Awareness.
The light blue ribbon is a symbol for prostate cancer, which has recently affected my family. Thankfully for our family and loved one, it was found relatively early and he choose to fight it aggressively.
Cancer doesn't discriminate, it is an equal opportunity killer.
Please take the time to have your medical check ups regularly and encourage your loved ones as well.
Enough preaching…let's get crafty!
Prostate Cancer Awareness Ribbon of Courage
- Stamp greeting (Ribbon of Courage stamp set) with VersaMark and heat emboss on 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (DSP). Adhere DSP to 4" x 5-1/4" Very Vanilla cardstock. Adhere panel to folded 11" x 4-1/4" Marina Mist card base.
- Stamp ribbon image (Ribbon of Courage stamp set) on Marina Mist cardstock with Marina Mist ink. Stamp heart image (Ribbon of Courage stamp set) on Very Vanilla cardstock with Marina Mist ink. Die cut ribbon and heart images with coordinating framelits (Support Ribbon Framelits).
- Die cut 2-5/8" circle (Layering Circle Framelits) from Very Vanilla and Fabulous Foil Designer Acetate. Die cut 2-3/8" circle from Vellum.
- With glue dots attach 5" Gold Metallic Edge Ribbon, folded in half to back of ribbon image. Attach ribbon layers to Vellum. Attach Vellum to Foil Acetate. Attach Foil Acetate to Very Vanilla.
- With Stampin' Dimensionals, adhere 12" Gold Mini Sequin Trim to DSP panel. Adhere Circle/Ribbon panel on top of sequin trim with Stampin' Dimensionals.
- Adhere heart image with Stampin' Dimensionals.
- Add some sparkle with Gold Faceted Gems.
- Don't forget the inside of the card-I added a scrap piece of DSP to give it a nice finished look!
I'm doing this CASE the Catty sharing with my friend, Dawn Olchefske. Be sure to check her CASE out too!
Always take the scenic route except when getting routine medical check ups.
