Fall Birthday

 

Here is a simple card that I made for a shoebox swap with my group of demonstrators using a technique that I recently came across on someone's blog.  Connie Stewart came up with the concept of making Cards in Flash.  This concept has completely changed the way I will design cards for classes.  So simple!!!  She has several examples and each day I check her blog for a new video.  After seeing this concept, every card I see I evaluate it to see if I can make it 'in a flash'.  So, this card used the Flash Card concept on the card found here.  I have to admit that I cheated just a bit - since I was using DSP, I changed the size of it to 4" X 3".  After all, the whole idea is to cut down on wasted paper!  :)

I hope you enjoy!

2012 Holiday Catalog Swap

I'm part of a group of ladies who are or have been Stampin' Up! demonstrators.  We usually have a swap or two every few months.  This card is a swap that I made featuring items in the Holiday Catalog.  I was hoping to show how the Scentsational Season stamp set could be used for something other than Christmas...  Maybe Valentines???

Tip:  Ink up the cocoa cup stamp using Primrose Petals ink.  Then use a Blender Pen to 'erase' the cocoa in the cup.  Color the cocoa using an Early Espresso marker.  I did this so I wouldn't have pink cocoa!   

 

Don't you LOVE that Glimmer Paper?  

 

Cardstock: Pink Pirouette, Very Vanilla, Primrose Petals, Early Espresso, Champagne Glimmer Paper

Ink: Primrose Petals, Early Espresso
Stamps:  Scentsational Season, Mixed Medley
Accessories: Big Shot, Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder, Holiday Collection Framelits Dies,
Punches: 1-1/4" Scallop Circle, 1" Circle, 3/4" Circle, Scallop Edge Border, Heart

Convention 2012 Roommate Gift

Speaking of Convention...  It's traditional to have gifts for your roommate.  I LOVE making gifts so this makes me happy.  Here is the gift set that I gave my roommate.  I made another set for my downline who attended Convention as well. 

This small package is a chocolate nugget holder.  I'll post directions for this little guy soon.  It's SO easy and really cute. 

 The middle gift is a hand sanitizer holder.  Can't hurt to have that at Convention!  It would also make a great teacher gift!

 And, of course, more chocolate...  Can NEVER have enough of that at Convention (or anytime for that matter!).   I'll try to post some directions for this package soon, too. 

 I hope you like these gift ideas!
~Enjoy!

Double Peek-a-Boo Card - Convention 2012 WOW Swap

Here it is!  My twist on the card shown here.   I made about 20 of these to swap at Convention this year.  I got the GREATEST reaction when I showed how the card worked.  That made me SO happy!  :)
Sorry for the blurry picture - I used a technique that I've been dying to try and the glitter didn't photograph so well.  I learned the technique at the Albuquerque Regional that Stampin' Up! had here last Fall (2011).   Put a small gob of Dazzling Details in a container and add a few drops of reinker (I used the lid of a package of brads).  Mix with a toothpick and then paint!  Easy Peasy!  I used Daffodil Delight reinker since that was the color of ribbon I had and it worked will with the Ducks.

 

Here's is the card as it's being opened...

 And here's the inside when it's fully opened!

 

Cardstock: Island Indigo, Whisper White

Ink: StazOn Black
Stamps:  Every Little Bit, Petite Pairs
Accessories: Big Shot, Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder, Dazzling Details, Daffodil Delight Re-inker, Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Write Marker, Daffodil Delight 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon
Punches: 1-3/8" Circle, 1-3/4" Scallop Circle, Scallop Edge Border

I hope you like it!  Let me know what you think!  

~Enjoy!
