October Stamp Club

Our October projects for Stamp Club were based on a card which Stampin'Up! had created as a sample in our recent Impressions Magazine.

Just loved these colours together.  I have shown this card previously but this time I added in the little extra snowflake (unfortunately this die is no longer available to purchase but it is still one of my favourites).

The cute little milk carton gift box was created in matching colours.  The little peg used on the top is from the Tag a Bag Accessory Kit.

I actually attached the Ribbon and Christmas Wishes greeting to the peg with glue dots and then it was easy just to peg to the top of the carton and take off when you want to get into the contents of the carton.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Coastal Cabana, Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Silver Glimmer Paper, Stamp Sets - That's the Ticket, Tape It, Ink Pads - White Stazon, Smoky Slate, Crumb Cake, DSP - Season of Style Paper Stack, Silver Ribbon, Punch - Mosaic, Ticket Duo Builder, Gemstones, Pegs, Washi Tape, Dies - Milk Carton and retired Snowflakes

Case of Cute Stampin'Up! Card

 To have a bit of a break from creating lots of Christmas cards for the markets and because I just couldn't wait any longer, I thought I would case the gorgeous card that Stampin'Up! had shared with us in our latest Demonstrators Impressions Magazine.



So, to the left is the original Stampin'Up! version which I shared with all my Facebook Fans a couple of days ago.

The original version used the new A Banner Christmas stamp set.





And now, voila, here is my version.  The actual colours are all the same (I think my photo is just not as bright).  Who would have thought that Coastal Cabana, Crumb Cake and Smoky Slate would all go together so well.

As is usually the case for most stampers, I didn't have all of the exact stamp sets etc the same as the original so I just used what I already had and I think it came out looking just as stunning.

And look, how they have used the grey Epic Day This and That Washi Tape.  Would never have thought of putting it on a Christmas card.


Supplies used:  Cardstock - Coastal Cabana, Crumb Cake, Whisper White Ink Pads - Smoky Slate, White Stayzon, Crumb Cake,  Stamp Sets - Tape It, That's The Ticket, Designer Series Paper - Season of Style, Epic Day This and That Washi Tape, Silver 1/8" Ribbon

August Stamp Club Projects

We all had a fun night at our first Stamp Club for the new Catalogue.   These are the two projects we created using the new In-Colours and some new stamp sets.


Our first project was created using the gorgeous new Flower Shop Stamp Set and Coastal Cabana.

A very simple monochromatic colour scheme.  The girls also got to use the new matching Pansy Punch and Chalk Talk Framelits.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Whisper White, Coastal Cabana, Stamp Sets - Flower Shop, Sketched Birthday, Gorgeous Grunge, In Colour DSP Stack - Coastal Cabana Sheet, Inkpad - Coastal Cabana, Dies - Chalk Talk Framelits, Punches - Pansy, Pearls

Our second project was the same card which Stampin'Up! have a tutorial for.  It is such a simple and effective card that I really wanted to share it with the Stamp Club girls.  Really loving the Tape It Stamp Set as well.  Also used the sweet Birthday Greeting from one of the Hostess sets Simply Sketched.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Whisper White, Stamp Set - Tape It, Inkpads - Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana, Pistachio Pudding, Baked Brown Sugar, Crisp Cantaloupe

Simple Thank You Cards

I saw a video on the Stampin'Up! You Tube Channel which showed how quick and easy it is to create these thank you cards.  Thought I would give them a try as thank you cards for my Open House Orders and this is what I created.  I think they are fantastic and took very little time to create because I used the new In Colours  which all co-ordinate beautifully.  Love the way these stamps look like Washi Tape.  Next I am going to try stamping them on vellum because they looked so good in the video.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Whisper White, Stamp Sets - Tape It & Simply Sketched (Hostess Set), Inkpads - Crisp Cantaloupe, Coastal Cabana, Strawberry Slush, Pistachio Pudding, Baked Brown Sugar
