Jul 17, 2018 | Designer Series Paper, Stamper's Club |
Here is a quick an easy idea that you can do with any of our Designer Series Paper patterns. With a Paper Sale going on this month it would be a perfect time to choose your favorite and make these quick and easy little gifts. This was one of the project my Stamper’s Club made this month.
I used rectangle shaped coasters – plain ones that I bought a while ago in bulk. I’d guess you could find them at a craft store. Or use some heavy cardboard. I covered the coaster with the Designer Series Paper. For mine I used the Garden Impressions paper. The Multi-purpose liquid glue is perfect for this – it gives you some wiggle room to get your paper lines up just where you want on the coaster. For the note paper – use blank index cards or cut up printer paper like I did. Then stamp on them. To hold the paper to the board I used on of the In-Color Mini Clips and made it pretty with a piece of ribbon. It really is easy!

Jul 13, 2018 | Birthday, Cards, Fun Fold, video |
Time moves slower when you are at a cabin in the mountains. Or maybe time goes faster and I move slower – it’s already afternoon and I haven’t accomplished much of anything. Wifi is also slower so I haven’t loaded my FB Live video to Youtube in order to add it to this post. But if you want to see it go HERE to my At Monika’s Place Facebook page to see it. It’s the July 11 Facebook Live video. Today I’m sharing with you the double triangle card.
This is a Double Triangle card and you get two from a piece of 8-1/2″ x 11″ piece of card stock. For this card you want to score first in both directions – on the long side score at 5-1/2″ and on the short side score at 4-1/4″. Now you need the Stampin’ Trimmer – pull out the scoring blade and then insert your paper on the diagonal – you want to have each point lined up with the track and then cut the whole way. That gives you two triangles that are already scored for your card base.
All the supplies and measurements are on the project sheet for you. And be sure to watch my FB live on my At Monika’s Place Facebook Page to see how I made it. Turn the volume up to hear me. Once I’m back home I’ll work on loading to Youtube and adding it here for you.

Jul 12, 2018 | Birthday, Cards |
On Wednesday on my At Monika’s Place Facebook Page I did a Facebook Live video and shared how to make a couple of cards using the Perennial Birthday stamp set. I’m posting about one of them today and the other one tomorrow. I’m also creating project sheets for each one and hope to have those ready tomorrow. Today I’m leaving for a weekend getaway with my team and there are still a few things to do for that. One is wait on the UPS man who is delivering a package that I need. If he doesn’t show up soon I will probably go search the neighborhood for him. But let’s take a look at today’s card.
I think this is such a beautiful card. It’s similar to one that Stampin’ Up! shared earlier in the year. I love the bright colors but also the subtl blue. This card uses the new Balmy Blue color. Stamp the Happy Birthday image twice before re-inking it. To add color to the stamped images on the Shimmery White card stock I used a sponge dauber. The little flowers are fussy cut – it’s easy to do with the Paper Snips. The final touch is the splatter that I added with a Stampin’ Write marker.

- Perennial Birthday stamp set
- Lemon Lime Twist card stock
- Shimmery White card stock

Jul 11, 2018 | Big Shot, Birthday, Cards, Designer Series Paper |
I’m sharing a quick card today using the Perennial Birthday stamp set paired with the Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper. The paper is part of the Buy 3 Get 1 Free sales happening this month. At first this was not a paper pack that screamed at me – buy me now! But now that I have it I have practically used up a whole pack and I’m ordering more today. The nice thing about these little 6×6 packs is all the different designs you get – there are 24 different patterns – you get 4 each of 12 double-sided designs. I’ve been using them up in clubs and classes already this month.
On this card I used one of the more subtle designs so I could stamp directly on it. The strip with the flowers is the same sheet – it’s just the other side of it. Use the Perennial Birthday stamp set to stamp flowers in coordinating colors. Sprinkle on a few pearls just because. It’s a quick and simple card to send to someone special.
Supply List
- Perennial Birthday stamp set
- Garden Impressions Designer Series paper (part of July paper sale)
- So Saffron card stock
- Whisper White card stock
- Calypso Coral card stock
- Calypso Coral ink
- Crushed Curry ink
- Call Me Clover ink
- Memento Black ink
- Layer Circle Framelits
