Slider Card with a Flying Bunny!!

August 10, 2023 Lisa Tedder Leave a comment

Hey Guys, It’s a Plane, no it’s a Train, NO it’s a Slider card with a Flying Bunny!! I have seen all over Pinterest and the Web these types of cards. Of course I wanted to try it, but I didn’t want to use the same stamps I’ve seen. Hmmm, what can I use…why the Playing in the Rain stamp set from Stampin’ Up! If you would like to see it made you can click here! Otherwise, you can get the PDF for free if you sign up for my Newsletter! Just click on the link to the right!

Slider Card with a Flying Bunny!!

This slider card when you pull the ribbon it makes the Bunny Fly!

Don’t Forget!

If by chance you purchased product over $50 last month, now is your chance to spend your $5 coupon! After all, who doesn’t love a coupon!?

Happy Anniversary to me!!

Being that I joined SU! 20 years ago, I wanted to Celebrate!! If you are reading this, and you purchase $50 from me in the next month, (Aug-10 to Sept-10) I will send you a gift! PLUS because you spent that amount you will also get the PDF of 16 projects! Now, that is quite the deal!!

Why would I do a ‘job’ for 20 years?

Basically, I have never done anything for 20 years other than my marriage and being a mom! So, why do I stay? Besides being able to stamp every day, I also have met the most wonderful people! Either those whom I’ve met at the SU! functions (going to Vegas in 10 days!!), or those I’ve met in my classes, YOU are all important to me. You make me laugh, cry, get excited and YOU make me feel like I am so talented! Ha! Basically I wish my sister could find the 1st card I ever made…it was so bad I cringe thinking I still sent it out! As far as learning along the way, I do feel like I’ve got this artistic eye I never thought I had! Thank you for sticking with me this long!!

Christmas card class coming in October!

But you will want to pay attention to the details, click here for more info! If you purchase the class before September 1st you get a DISCOUNT! Of course I have purchased a lot of NEW product from the upcoming Mini, and after 15 years I have decided to up the cost of the class. For those who want to come, the cost is $45 if you purchase before the 1st of September, otherwise it will be $50. The reason for the price increase is you will get 16 cards, plus a day of fun, a pdf and FULLY cut/prepared card packets! Plus, I haven’t raised my prices, and have been losing money. Of course I love this class so much, I wasn’t in it for the Money, BUT I can’t afford to give it away. Let me tell you, the cards are WOW’s but not too hard!

Anyone can come to the class and participate, but be ready to laugh, eat, visit and make new friends! Following this class you will go home with gorgeous cards that will definitely set the bar high, and you will have so much fun you will want to do it again next year!

Thanks

Lastly, I would like to thank you for coming here and visiting me! I know you are busy as am I, the fact that you take time out to visit means so much to me! Thank you so much for supporting me and my small business!

Before I started with Stampin’ Up!, besides thinking that I wasn’t creative, I had NEVER made a handmade card! Then I was asked to go to a SU! class at a neighbor’s house. Wow, moreover was that ever an eye opener! Who knew stamps could make being creative so easy!? Moreover SU! has coordinating product where making something look good is indeed easy! THAT is what sealed the deal for me! Because I started out scrapbooking, getting things to coordinate on the page became MUCH simpler!

Going to the Beach

April 7, 2022 Lisa Tedder Leave a comment

Tired of the Cold

Hey guys, I’m going to the beach. I’m tired of the cold! Generally I am ALWAYS tired of cold, I am a girl who is not happy when it’s cold. I am sharing with you today two cards, of course, where I will be going to the beach! Of course I adore the ocean, growing up in Southern California I went to the beach all the time. Because I live in North Carolina I don’t get to go as often.

First thing to remember is every week I make cards for you that I also do a video on, indeed you can see the video for these two cards here. Moreover if you missed my other videos but would like to catch up, of course you can, just click here. Download my cards with a PDF and follow along if you desire!

Another card where I go to the Beach — I love sunrises and sunsets at the Beach!

Become a Happy Shopper

Why did I join Stampin’ Up! almost 19 years ago? Of course it is because I wanted the Discount! Not to mention that I also wanted to get Color Coordination. Compared to trying to scrapbook and coordinate the colors on my page, SU! made it simple! Undeniably their products match each other, the ribbons, inks, papers embellishments ALL color coordinate. That takes away all the guess work for me! After all once you pick the color that best goes with your photo, the rest is easy! Join my team and you too can be a Happy Shopper! Coupled with getting a discount, my team get’s together every month and we stamp and swap cards! I also teach you how to do watermarks and make pdf’s along with other teaching tools.

Get a PDF with a Qualifying order!

Every month I work with 16 other Demonstrators where we each make a project, write down the instructions and include pictures. How can you get this PDF you ask? Of course it is super simple….with a Qualifying order ($35 or more) you will receive in your email a PDF with directions on how to make each one! As can be seen below there is a sneak peek!

This month it's all double scrapbook pages! — Love scrapbooking!

Stampin’ Besties Club!

Undeniably my favorite part of being a SU! demo is being able to do classes with my Besties! Carol, Hetty and I get together virtually moreover we plan 6 cards using the same stamps/suites! It’s amazing how the three of us identically use the same product and be totally different! Rarely do we get to come together in person, so we have so much fun in our Besties Club! Not only do you get 3 Designers, but you get so much more! Check out this page to find out more then let me know you want to be a Bestie too!

Finally….

Notwithstanding, I am finishing my post today, I would also like you to know that I appreciate you! After all, The fact that you are reading this has made my day! I work hard to make my posts interesting and particularly hope you find them so. Also, below my sign off are the pictures that you can click on of the product used in today’s cards. Click on any of them, after that you will be taken to my Online Store! My hope is that you love the cards today and will of course want to try them out yourselves! Until next Thursday!

A Fancy Fold balcony Card….What!?

June 17, 2021 Lisa Tedder 2 Comments

Who doesn’t love a New Fancy Fold?!

Hey Guys!!

First off, I want to say how much I LOVE Fancy Folds, today I am sharing a Balcony Card…..What!? Yes, I have never heard about it either, so I am sharing with you how to make one by doing my weekly video that you can watch. Also, who doesn’t love a new fancy fold?! Second I saw this fold on Pinterest, but have never heard about it, have you?

Consequently, after looking at Pinterest, I started making it and here is what I made:

I LOVE Fancy Folds, today I am sharing a A Balcony Card…..What!?

In addition to Fancy Folds, I also like techniques! As a result of that, I am showing you my 2nd card that I did on my video using the same set Hey, Chick! and Hey Birthday Chick. In this case, I used the technique where you emboss with a folder, the entire card front, layers and all (I placed ‘Happy Birthday’ several times down one side, and embossed that too!), it’s a very cool technique!

Generally I like to keep to one stamp set for my videos, but this time the two: Hey Chick! and Hey Birthday Chick work so well together, I HAD to use them both! Subsequently, you will need to buy Hey Chick asap, since it won’t be available after June! And, doing a Balcony card….what!?, yes a Balcony card was a must for me, I hope you like it as much as I do!

As a rule, here are the specifics for both cards:

Paper:

Hey, Chick Bundle
Hey Birthday Chick Bundle

Inks:

Memento
Crumb Cake (to sponge over fence/barn)
Early Espresso
Black Stampin’ Write Marker
Blends
Daffodil Delight
Pumpkin Pie
Calypso Coral

Paper:

Card 1

Early Espresso: 6″ sq (for the video I made it 5 1/2″ x 6″), 7″ x 1 1/2″ scored @ 1/2″, 3 1/2″, 6 1/2, 5″ x 2 1/2″ scored @ 1/2″, 2 1/2″, 4 1/2″, 1 1/8″ x 2 1/2″ (trim after), scraps for Happy Birthday
Very Vanilla 5 7/8″ sq x 3 (for the video it is: 2 7/8″ x 5 3/8″ 3 times), scrap for sentiment/ chickens
Crumb cake: scraps for 5 fences, 1 barn
Cinnamon Cider: scrap for pieces of the barn
Bumblebee: scraps for baby chicks
Beauty of the earth DSP: 1 3/8″ x 2 7/8″ (x2), 1 7/8″ x 2 3/8″ (x2), 2 3/4″ x 3 5/8″

Card 2

Early Espresso 4 1/4″ x 11″, scraps for Happy Birthday

Basic White 4″ x 5 1/4″ (x2), scrap for chick/tag

Misc:

Bumblebee Gingham ribbon

Tailor Made Tags
Bark 3D embossing folder

Finally, this is where I tell you that the supplies listed above are also in picture form below, click on any of them and you will be taken to my On Line Store. Incidentally, for purchases above $35 you will not only get the card packet for the class I did on YouTube that week, but you will also get a PDF of 16 cards with step by step instructions as well as pictures! Above all, I want you to know how much I appreciate you and your support of my small business!

One last thing, I also have a Besties Club that is in it’s 5th month! Every month we (my besties Carol from AZ and Hetty from Canada) and I come up with 2 cards each using one stamp set/suite.

For example, we are using Tidings & Trimmings for July (you have until the 22nd to sign up!) for your $34 you get 1/2″ pack of the Designer Series Paper “Tidings of Christmas”, Full pack of Gold Gems, 1/3 pack of Red Rhinestones and a full roll of Evening Evergreen Chevron Weave ribbon! Every month you get between $19 – $21 worth of product in your kit, PLUS all the cardstock cut and ready for you! Plus a special gift from me!

All for that low price, we prefer to be paid by Stampin’ Up!, this way you get the most for your $$! Of course we have so much fun, you can go HERE to get all the specifics and sign up!

In Conclusion, I hope you have enjoyed this post, you can always go to the video to see HOW I made the cards, it’s too much to explain it when I also have it on video, hope you understand!
