Thursday, Stamp A Stack card Class



Thursday's class will feature these three cards. We will make 2 each of the three cards. The Butterfly card was also featured in last week's Blog Hop made by Susan Campfield. I thought it was so cute and elegant that I wanted to feature in my class. Did you enjoy the Blog Hop? We will be featuring a Blog Hop on the 20th of the month for the next 5 months for sure.
The second card features the stamp set Sheltering Tree using Old Olive and Early Espresso. Love, love the two step stamping method to get multi colors on your card creations.
The last card using the cute little bike from Sheltering Tree and the fun framelit cutout from the Celebrate today set. Really adds some depth when you can layer on your card.
If you live a distance and can not make it to my class but would still like to get the cards, just place a $50 order and I will send them to you plus you can pick out a free Sale A Bration item too!
Happy Stampin

Creative Inking Blog Hop





This month's Blog Hop is full of color using Stampin Up fun Designer Paper and the new Blendables.
Supplies needed:
  1. Coastal Cobana Cardstock and ink
  2. Whisper White cardstock
  3. Best Year Ever Designer paper (Free during Sale A Bration)
  4. Petal Potpourri Stamp Set and coordinating punch page 23 Occasion mini
  5. Gold Basic metal Buttons page 13 of the Occasion mini
  6. Calypso Coral Blendables  (Free during Sale A Bration)
  7. Momento ink pad page 212

 Stamp flower on lower corner of Whisper White paper. You will be punching this out and layering over with Designer paper.





Using the Blendables, color in your flower. The blendables come in a set of three. Light, Medium, and Dark. I like to do my flower in the light first and add my darker shading last. After you are done, punch out your flower with the Flower Medalion Punch.


Using the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Punch sold on page 222, punch a ribbon out of the Calypso Coral cardstock to layer over your 2 x 4 designer paper which your have cut two of using both designs.

Another great Stamp Set in the Occasion Mini is the Crazy about You set sold on page 31. Here I have used the Happy Birthday and stamped on my Whisper White. Layer the Happy and Birthday on one block to make it easier to stamp.
