Another Catalog CASE

I used the soon to be retiring Dapper Denim and Emerald Envy for this quick catalog case card. I love the punch that comes with the masculine bundle, Truly Tailored. It is so perfect for so many sentiments and a great shape to add to the collection.

A Lot of Rain

Well, we have been having a lot of rain and no snow or ice! It has been either raining or overcast most every day for 2 weeks. I know we need it but in my world it would rain at night and be sunny every day. Aww, in the next life. I am really loving this stamp set...Waterfront.

SUO Only Challenges

SUO Challenge 194: CASE a Catalog Project!

At this moment, Stampin’ Up! has three catalogs for its demonstrators and customers to enjoy. Each of those catalogs is FULL of great projects to give us all ideas to help us get started on our own projects. Your challenge this time is to make a card or other project based on one that’s featured in either the Stampin’ Up! 2017-2018 Annual Catalog (Creativity Your Way); the 2018 Occasions Catalog (Love it, Live it, Share it); or the 2018 Sale-A-Bration Brochure. One of the words for what we’re asking you to do is CASE: Copy And Share with Everyone. 

My card came from the front of the Occasions catalog. I fell in love the Picture Perfect Birthday and ordered it as soon as I could. I was disappointed in the paper ribbon not being available so I made my own version using the scissors! I have not received my Stamparatus yet so I had to improvise on my stamping. I think it came out well.

Thanks for dropping by! Love your comments and ideas.

A Q & E Masculine Card

It is time to make a Q&E masculine card. I followed the sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch! It was quick & easy (Q&E)! I love the Truly Tailored look and so I turned to it for my stamping and the wonderful DSP that matches that set. My husband has recently acquired a couple of bow ties and has been using them when we cruise (just for the fun of it) and so I made this one for him.

Thanks for stopping by!

Beautiful Peacock

I just got the Beautiful Peacock and I got to play with it this weekend. It is such a striking image that I wanted to make it as colorful as possible. I used the new In Color Lemon Lime Twist for the card base and it begged for some of the Brights colors...Tempting Turquoise, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive and Melon Mambo. I added the glitter paper and the beautiful Tutti Frutti sequins. I think it turned out very pretty! Then I saw that it matches the TGIF Challenge of the week...

Daisy Delight

This pretty card was made using Daisy Delight. I stamped the flower twice and used the matching punch to cut the flowers (easy peasy). The flowers are Pink Pirouette and I stamped using Melon Mambo. The card base is Pool Party and stamped using the same color ink. The stem and flowers were made using Pear Pizazz. All the images including the words were done using the one stamp set.

One More Valentine Treat

I had to make one more treat for Valentine's and recovered this little bottle. I had just the right amount of red candies for it with one left over to eat! I filled the jar and quickly stamped out a label for it.
So fun and cute!

Valentine Treats

I love making little treats for all my office co-workers at school. This time I used the fun clear boxes in the main catalog. I cut the DSP at 1-3/4" x 6 and pieced them with 3" strips to fit around the boxes. I put the corners on box fold so that they would not stand out. I then added a 2" circle and the sentiment from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set. I put in 3 truffles per box. Yum!

So Many Shells

For this card I pulled out my water color card stock and made some pretty shell images. This stamp set features shells (hence the name) and I love the sentiment on this one!  I used Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight and Pink Pirouette rounding out a color from each of the 4 color families.

One Stamp, Many Ideas

The bold images on all 3 of these cards were done using the Heartfelt Blooms stamp set that is only available until March 31. Guess what? You can get it for FREE! Yes, FREE! How you ask? Simply purchase $50 worth of stamps &/or accessories and you can get it for FREE!

I love stamp sets that are so very versatile and I know you will also. This one has the one large floral image and 3 sentiments...'Sending Heartfelt Thoughts'; 'Thank You''; and 'Thinking of You.' Those sayings say plenty! Come on and let's get your stampin' fix on!

Party Pandas

This little panda bear comes as part of a set that is also only available during Sale-a-Bration until March 31. I have made several cards using this set and I love how simple they are. Who doesn't love a panda and the basic black & white are so fun to accent with your favorite colors. This one uses Lemon Lime Twist. How sweet!

Heartfelt Blooms

How about this for a quick and easy card? I started with the Whisper White note card measuring
5 x 3.5 that Stampin' UP! sells with matching envelopes. They come in a pack of 20 and are so fun to use for quick cards. I used some DSP and the color Berry Burst for the card and ink. The stamp set comes with this beautiful floral image and 3 wonderful sentiments. It is only available until March 31 so contact me now to learn how to get your FREE stamp set.

Masculine Card for the Challenge

I was inspired by this challenge to use some of my 'old' supplies on hand and make a much needed masculine card. I love the sketch and this is my take on it for the Paper Players this week.
