  • Punch Art Sun: Shiny Card

    Hi Stampers,

    In the winter that just won't end – I though a nice bright sunny shiny stamp project was in order for my stamp camp yesterday.

    SunnyDay1

    I was looking around Pinterest for a little inspiration when I saw this sun card by Patty and fell in LOVE!! I kept the layout of the card pretty much the same as her card – I didn't have the metal buttons she used but I still wanted that touch of gray on the card – so a little Basic Gray Grosgrain ribbon was a perfect addition!!

    The punch art sun is made by punching a 1-3/4" circle from Tangerine Tango card stock.

    Then I used the Banner Punch (Get it FREE during Sale-a-bration) to punch 8 banners from Daffodil Delight card stock. Attach them to the circle and you've got a bright sun shiny sun!!

    The clouds were die cut from the Word Bubble Framelits die!!

    This card just makes me happy!!

    If you want to join us at our next stamp camp (coming up on March 29th) e-mail me for all the details.

    Tip: Create New Shapes with Triangles
    Paper piecing makes for a fun way to create a beautiful background. For example, take the Triangle punch (#133375) and the Kaleidoscope Designer Series Paper (#132995) and punch out lots of triangles in different patterns and colors. Adhere them to a piece of Whisper White card stock (#100730) that has been cut to your desired size. Cover the whole piece – letting parts of triangles hang over the edge of the card stock where needed. Trim off the excess once it is dry. Adhere to your card, add a greeting, and you're done!

  • Creativity At It’s Finest

    Hi Stampers,

    Yesterday I mentioned an ornament I made for my team member Debbie to celebrate reaching a SU Milestone – and I'm back today to share with you!!

    Creativity_Ornament2

    I used My Digital Studio to create the "Creativity at It's Finest" image and saved it as a picture so I could add it to an ornament. Then I cut out some Designer Series Paper for the back of the ornament.

    I added a little note on the back to mark the date and milestone for her!!

    Then I added one final little touch

     

    Creativity_Ornament1

    My Create, Ink! Team's logo that I made LONG ago has a little flower dotting the I in Ink so I wanted to bring a bit of that into her ornament. I punched a few flowers using the Itty Bitty Punch Pack – glued them to the ornament and added a pearl in the center.

    Hopefully Debbie will enjoy hanging the ornament and remembering all she did to reach her goals!!!

     

  • Wahoo!!

    Hi Stampers,

    Last Saturday was my monthly team get together for my Create, Ink! Stampers… Actually it was our first get together since before the Holidays – with all this WONDERFUL snow we've been getting this year we has to cancel a few of our meet ups! 🙂 So it was GREAT to see my team all together again – it was much too long of a break.

    Back in December one of my very first team members, Debbie, reached one of the SU Careere Milestones and I wanted to celebrate it for her at the meeting!

    I started off by making up a card – I was looking through my stamps for just the right congrats greeting – and I remembered the "Wahoo! You Did It" stamp from one of the Paper Pumpkin Kits – It was PERFECT!

    Wahoo2

    I used the Scallop Tag Topper Punch to create a tag that I could weave ribbon through. Stamped the greeting on the tag and attached it to a card layered with some Real Red card stock and Fresh Prints Designer Series Paper. I wanted to add a touch of bling to the card so I used two way glue to adhere a scattering of Gold Sequins that I pulled off the Gold Sequin Trim.  I love the touch of sparkle.

    Wahoo1

    I also made her a little ornament that she can use on her Christmas Tree every year (since she reached the milestone in December) or hand in her creaft room all year! Come back tomorrow and I'll share that project with you!
