Punch Art using Pansy Patch

Hey guys!,

The NEW catalog is almost LIVE, today I am sharing with you Punch Art using Pansy Patch! Plus another pretty card! Above all, I love when I see a stamp set/Die and something pops out at me that isn’t the norm. Hence, I saw the dies first and immediately saw fish fins and then I saw the Lure Fish tentacle. Of course I had to make it! Conversely, I had no idea if it would work out, but I’m so pleased it did! Here is that card:

Next, I am sharing with you the 2nd card I made with my Live! In this case, I used the stamp set as it was designed and made a gorgeous monochromatic card with just a tiny splash of color! Here it is:

Luke and Leia- My Annual Star Wars Birthday Card for my Grandson

Hey Guys!

Every year I stress trying to think of  a Star Wars card that I can make for Isaac, my Grandson.  This year I found a card on Pinterest by Carolina Evans, I changed it up quite a bit, but the characters are close to the same.

Here is my card:

The dies and punches I used are: Daisy Punch, Layering Oval Dies, Fox Builder, Classic Label and the Sparkle Folder….all by Stampin’ Up!

I got to Skype with Isaac when he opened his card!  He liked the card, but LOVED the $5.00 I put in there!  My daughter LOVED it and plans on framing ALL my cards for him.  Isaac is only 6, so I know that he really doesn’t think ‘ My Mimi spent a lot of time making this card for me’, he was happy to get the $$!!  LOL

So, I have a year to come up with another Star Wars card that uses Stampin’ Up! product!  That is my challenge every year.  I really want to do one with Kylo Ren, that is his favorite character.

Hope you enjoyed my Star Wars card, do a search in my blog to find the others I did!

To purchase any of the product, click on any of the pictures below and you will be taken to my OnLine Store!  I would love it if you would choose me as your Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator.

Thanks for stopping by!

HedgeHog Cutie

Hey Guys!

I made a Hedgehog with a flower stamp!  I’ve seen this done over a year ago, and FINALLY decided to make one.  These are so cute it was always on my list to make one.  So happy with how it came out! Here is my card:

I thought that embossing the Tree Rings on Soft Suede using Gold Embossing Powder would be really pretty. This is so stunning in person!  This is a card we’ll be doing in my kid card class. This, in my opinion, would be great for a teen girl.  I would love getting this, wouldn’t you!?

Show-Off Frog

Hey Guys!

I have always loved frogs.  As a Child I had an Aunt who made a HUGE deal everytime I tried showing her a frog in my hand……I would say “Guess what I have” she would not be able to guess so I opened my hands and there was a frog.  She would run away and act scared!  No matter how many times I would ask her she NEVER could guess what was in my hands!  LOL  Looking back of COURSE she knew what was in there, she was the BEST Aunt and I have VERY fond memories of her!

Here is my card:

 

So, when I saw this So Hoppy Together stamp set by Stampin’ Up! it brought back these fun memories and this was first on my list to get for free!  Free?!  What?!  Yes, for the first three months every year SU! has a Sale a Bration catalog that you can earn FREE stamps! But, time is almost out, you can only get this stamp set while supplies last or the end of March.  Go check out Pinterest and see how many ideas you can get using this set!

I love how it looks like this frog is almost falling off this bike and his buddy is cheering him on.  This is for my Kids card class coming up!  Too cute!

Here is my card:

High Tide Close Up

Hey Guys!

Today I am sharing with you a card that I HAD to make!  I saw it on YouTube by Esther-Stampin Star Creations.  THIS card was so much fun to make and I LOVE Black and White cards!

The ONLY thing I changed up from Esthers’ card is I added the Baker’s Twine on the bottom.  I also think my white is smaller than the one she used, I didn’t notice it was smaller until after I cut it! So there it stayed.

Here are the specifics for this card:

Stamp sets

High Tide

Paper
Whisper White Thick 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, 3 5/8″ x 4 7/8″ (x2)
black 5 1/4″ x 4″ (x2)
Inks
Memento black
Basic Gray
Accessories
Layering Circles (2nd biggest)
Dimensionals
Black Bakers Twine
Sponges

When you look at this card, it looks like it would difficult. Or time consuming.  It’s neither!  Sponging is the main effect and that is easy to do!   I absolutely fell in love with this card and when that happens I HAVE  to make it right away!  I was done for the day, put on a video on YouTube and saw this one while I ate dinner. Normally I would plan on making it the next day, but this called to me and now that I have made it……..I LOVE it!  Thank you Esther!

If you are looking for a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, I would love it if you could choose me!  I also have a YouTube Channel, and if you check me out and like the style of cards I make, we could make a great team!

Below are pictures of the supplies that I used, click on any of them and you will be taken to my OnLine Store!  If you purchase from me I will send you a small token of my appreciation!
