More Cards with punches

Here are some cards made with the note cards and some punched cardinals. The cardinals are made from the wide oval punch the square punch and a 1/4' circle and a 1 " circle and the word window punches. They are fun to make. The weath was made from taking one of the pocket Silhouette stamps and moving them around a punched circle. I put a sticky note in the center to keep from stamping the inside of the note card. I love the gingham red ribbon. Just twirled it on and attached with mini glue dots. The Greeting in the center is from a hostess set called Holiday Best. It is available to anyone placing a single $150 order along with that you also get $15 stamping reward dollars to spend on anything in the catalog. There is also a special on this month host a workshop of $250 in sales and get an item from the Holiday Mini for $10. That includes the bigshot pop up Christmas tree die.
Enjoy

Some new Creations

Here are some of my newest creations. The build a bear is a new set and the bears are paper pieced with our DSP papers and assorted cardstock. I used the sweet treat cups to make the candy inside of the balloon and the inside has a slide up window that you can retrieve the candies.

Visit with Grandkids

Here are a few pictures from our visit with the grandkids on Sunday.

Asian Flair

I love this set called Dream Gardens. Some of my newest creations.

Cards from my community class

Boo Card with Pumpkins and Bat made with the SU round tab punch and eyes from SU round punches and Letters BOO made with the SU Sizzix serif essentials Alphabet dies. The pumpkin is also a sizzix die.

Card with fence made with SU small tab punch and ribbon to create fence and SU triple flower and hand cut birdies makes a 3 D effect.

Card with butterfly image (a hostess set that can be earned with a qualifing party of $150 Called Of the EARTH) is done with marker direct to stamp and then huffing on the stamp to remoisten the ink allowing several colors of marker to be used. I used a piece of striped DSP paper in the background and another stamp up in the corner inked with versamark to make a watermark impression.


Thought I would share some pictures of my community class cards. The class is called Cards and Chatter. It is alot of fun to meet new people and to instruct this class where we learn a technique and get to know each other better. With all that is going around us in this day and age we need to take time out for ourselves and relax. If you are looking for a night out with out spending alot of money and want to enjoy some chatter and laughter come and join us. I can take up to 12 per class but you need to make a reservation either with me or the City parks and Rec site so I know you are coming. This helps me get together the supplies needed to make the cards and ensure there is enough for everyone to participate. Cost is $10 for 3 cards.

Great Effort leads to great reward..

I checked on the Stampin' UP! website today and even though we fell short of our original goal of having 1500 join stampin up from our convention challenge. We were given a 40% discount on the digital scrapbooking program. Yoo hoo Stampin' UP! Rocks WE were able to recruit close to 1250 new demonstrators in a few short weeks.

This offer was only available to those who attended convention. As always attending convention is a big perk but having all that we learned available at our fingertips after convention is great too. Sometimes the brain gets a little overwhelmed with so many notes to take and the excitement of it all that when you get home you wonder where you scralled a note and if you can find it in all that you brought home. It is great to know that the company saves us by keeping all the important information in one place on the website. Convention is always a boost to my business and I encourage you to come next year if you have not experienced it.

Even though the incentives for our kit are not available right now and you think you may want to become a demonstrator our normal kit is worth far more than the $199. It includes all your business supplies and merchandise worth more than $300. If you are thinking about joining and missed the cut off never fear. I always sweeten the deal for my new recruits. I will add once you join just for the month of Sept to Thank you for joining and to celebrate my Birthday (sept 6th) A pack of 8 1/2 x 11" in color paper and the 6 new in color classic pads.

My group is the Lucky Ladies (with lady bug logo). We meet monthly and our next meeting will be on Sunday Sept 20th at 4 pm - 6pm. I invite you to come and join us as a potential recruit. If you know of anyone searching to make a little extra money and have fun creating at the same time send me an email with their email address or phone #. Joining Stampin' UP! has been one of the best things I ever did. I want to share the thrill of creating with others and share Stampin' UP! with you.

another Birthday Card...

Here is another version of the previously posted birthday card. I used the lattice sizzix die again with out cutting the points off, Also the japanese girl has a different hairstyle. possiblilties with this are unending. My upline Barb has several of these on her blog. Check it out
http://www.bizestampers.com

Happy Birthday Meredith!

Here is a special card that I have completed for my step daughter Meredith. I hope she will enjoy it. I have used the new Lattice Sizzix die with the Big shot and the new in-colors Melon Mambo and Bermuda Bay with our basic black cardstock and our brushed Gold cardstock. The cute little Japanese girl is created with the wide oval punch the 1" and 1 1/4" circle punches and the new modern label punch. The stamp sets used are Wings of Friendship (flourish on the robe)and Kind & Caring Thoughts (sentiment)both hostess sets and The circle on the brushed Gold cardstock above and below the sentiment is from the Circle Circus stampset. I used Black Stazon for stamping. For a tutorial on making the Japanese girl check with Kirsteen who gave me my inspiration. The only difference is I used the modern label punch to make the opening near the face. http://www.creatinwithkirsteen.com/index.php

If it is your Birthday I wish you a very happy birthday.

New Technique Pigment ink with chalk or What I call the Chalk board technique

This a new technique that our resident teckie taught us. Pat Garvin is such a great teacher and part of a group I belong to called stamping in Florida. once a month we meet at the Scrap and Stamp studio on SR44 just past the walmart. Our group has been in existance for a couple years now. We are all great friends. Using pigment ink stamp your image, heat set a bit then using your chalks or pastels gently dab on the color. Then use the pigment ink again on the same stamp and change the angle of the stamp. Neat affect. Didn't think I would like it at first but it does grow on you.

Card Opened. another of our stampers and members Trishie showed us this neat Tri shutter card. I changed the dimensions just a bit but it is still made the same way. It was much easier than I thought it would be.

Here is another shot of it. On the outer part I didn't stamp it twice just once and used the pastels to color. I love using our scalloped punch from SU with it. The technique works best on dark or black cardstock.

This is what the card looks like closed.

Latest Cards

Here are some of the latest cards I have been working on. The roses are watercolored with the reinker spread / wash technique on Shimmery White cardstock. A Really fun technique. The sunflower card is done with the Sizzix daisies die. I used the small dots embossing plates to get the impression on the middle of it. I sponged the cards with ink to give a little highlight. I also have made some quilt cards by paper piecing and then cutting with a top note die. I hope you enjoy.
