(If you see words that are missing the letter ‘H’ – my keyboard seems to be having an issue with that letter – I’m trying to catch it but I may miss a few 🙂

Apr 16, 2013 | Cards, Designer Series Paper, Paper Pumpkin, Stampin' Up! Events |
I made these cards to swap at the Stampin’ Up! Baltimore Regional this past weekend. I love the clean simple design of these. I wish I had taken a picture of the full rainbow of cards but I did not – sigh. Luckily I got a couple of photos though.
I made a whole rainbow of these and they would actually make a really fun set of cards. Now I think I may need to make some more. Let’s see I had Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Marina Mist and Rich Razzleberry.
And you know what I didn’t even save one for myself now that I think about it. I will have to make some more of these. Here is what I used to make each card –
- card base in one of the rainbow colors – 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 and scored at 4-1/4″ – fold in half
- Whisper White layer – 5-1/4 x 4 – stamp “hey there friend” in the lower right corner in the same color as the base.
- Punch a Itty Bitty Flower using the Itty Bitty Punch pack in the same color.
- Pierce a hole through the center of the flower and through the Whisper White layer next to the words and insert a mini silver brad. Curl up the flower around the brad.
- Add a strip of designer series paper from the Polka Dot Parade pack in the same color to the left side of the Whisper White layer.
- Tie a piece of Whisper White Baker’s twine around and tie in a bow.
- Glue the Whisper White layer to the card base.
Do you know where the stamp came from? It is one of the stamps in the Paper Pumpkin Welcome kit – isn’t it great? If you don’t have it and you want it then you need to join Paper Pumpkin – its easy click here to learn how – and you will get it in your first kit. Our surprise April Kits are on the way – I hope it gets here this week before my Creative Retreat is over so I can show everyone that’s here the newest monthly kit!
Have a nice Spring day today!
Apr 11, 2013 | Cards, Ronald McDonald House Charities |
I wanted to share some pictures from our visit this week to the Ronald McDonald House for some stamping time. We had kids and moms plus some help from one of the dads and the volunteer coordinator at the house. It was a fun night and everyone that participated enjoyed themselves. Jenn designed the card that everyone made – here it is –
The volunteer demonstrators take turns designing the card and bringing the supplies. Some of the guests follow the card exactly while others get creative.
Thank you to everyone that came and helped – Jenn, Leishman, Bryan, Suzi and myself. It was a nice escape for the guests at the house even if it wasn’t for very long.
Apr 9, 2013 | Big Shot, Cards, Pop 'n Cuts, Spring Catalog 2013 |
I don’t think I’ve shared these All Dressed Up Pop-Up cards on my blog yet. During the month of March I think almost every class I had we made one of these or a variation of it. There are tons of possibilities with the pop-up die and the dresses. These are just a couple of variations that I created.
Notice the few differences on the fronts and the insides of these. Not much changed but a little bit.
And the side view so you can see what the pop-up piece looks like.
Tonight I’ll be going to the Ronald McDonald house for some stamping with the guests that are staying there. It should be fun. Come back for a visit tomorrow – I have something new going on this month.
