June 17, 2020 Lisa Tedder Leave a comment

Hey Guys!

We do the best we can. How are you holding up? I am working on it, I am doing videos every week, and there is one for this card! You can go to YouTube and check it out! Having ups and downs are normal right? Being a normally happy person, I try very hard to not let the World get me down. Making this card made my very happy! I even had my friend over and we made it together! This card is fun because it has a lot to see, you open it and keep on opening for the final reveal!

One flap back, see how I had these two pieces of DSP meet in the middle?

The Dies for this Suite are really fun! The World Globe can be wherever you live! And cutting it out of Brass Foil is the best! The Brass Foil is so pretty, it seems like it is brighter and deeper in color than the Gold Foil. Don’t get me wrong I still love the Gold Foil but this one is a keeper for sure!

Here are the specifics for this card:

Stamps:
Beautiful World Bundle
Stacked Stones

Inks:
Early Espresso
Misty Moonlight

Paper:
Early Espresso 12″ x 12″, scraps for globe stand….scored @ 2″, 4″, 8″ & 10…..then turn score @ 4″ & 8″ cut away four corners and one from each side flap (see video)
Misty Moonlight 3 3/4″ sq., scrap for behind globe
Whisper White 3 5/8″ sq, scrap for sentiment

Sunflower Shaker Card

June 11, 2020 Lisa Tedder Leave a comment

Hey Guys!

Today I am sharing with you a card I made using the Jar of Flowers stamp set AND the Mason Jar Shaker Domes! I LOVE shaker cards, and this one was so fun! The stamp of the Mason Jar is so cute! These are REVERSIBLE stamps! So, you stamp the image in Pool Party to mimic a Real Mason Jar turn the stamp over and you can shade it with the same stamp!

Here is my card:

No one can resist a shaker card! You just HAVE to shake it!

The Designer Series Paper (DSP) is supposed to be a table with the brick being the wall. Do you see that? I wasn’t so sure how to make it look like a table, so this is what I came up with.

When I did the brick, I used real red cardstock and then ran the Memento Black ink over it to look more weathered and real. For the double bow ribbon I used the Forever Greenery Combo pack, the gold really sets off the gold in the DSP. And for the inside of the jar I used the Flowers for every season Gems. Really fun to to shake!

Here are the specific for this card:

Stamps:
Jar of Flowers
Comfort & Hope

Inks:
Early Espresso (for flowers)
Memento Black (for brick and Sentiment)
Pool Party (for water and for the jar)
Old Olive (for stems)
Blends: Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Crumb Cake

Paper:
Bumble Bee 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
Gold Foil 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″
Black 5 1/4″ x 4″ (x2)
Real Red 5″ x 3 3/4″
DSP 1 1/4″ x 3 3/4″
Whisper White 3″ x 5″ (for flowers AND inside jar) 5″ x 3 3/4″ (for inside)

Misc:
Forever Greenery Trim (gold )
Flowers for Every Season Gems
Stampin’ Seal
Brick & Mortar 3d folder
Dimensionals
Stitched So Sweetly Dies
Mason Jar Shaker Domes

Rooted in Nature beach scene

June 5, 2019 Lisa Tedder Leave a comment

Hey Guys!

I love my Job! I get to make beautiful handmade cards AND show others how to do it! After my classes everyone is so happy with what they have made!

I got this idea from Cindy Elam, I found it on Pinterest and changed up a little, here is her card:

I LOVE layers, I wanted to add to this beautiful card. Here is what I came up with:

Here are the specifics for this card:

PROJECT 3: Watercolor trees
Stamp Sets	Pg #
Rooted in Nature
Waterfront



Paper
Soft Suede 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
Early Espresso 3 1/8″ x 4 1/8″
Watercolor paper 3″ x 4″
Very Vanilla 5 1/4″ x 4″, 2″ x 4 3/4″

Inks
Crushed Curry
Soft Suede
Early Espresso
Mossy Meadow
Pool Party
Accessories
Spritzer
Braided Linen Trim
Layered Leaves folder
Sponges
Big Shot

I spritzed the stamp after inking it then stamped it on Watercolor paper. It really has a great effect. I love how the trees look different each and every time! I also love to use the Aqua Painter to make a background. I taped off a straight line then using the Aqua Painter to make the water.

Below are all the supplies used to make this card. Click on any picture and you will be taken to my OnLine Store. I would love if you would choose me as your Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator!

A NON Christmas Card using Farmhouse Christmas

September 3, 2018 Lisa Tedder Leave a comment

Hey Guys!

I am so excited that as a demonstrator for Stampin’ Up!, that I get to purchase NEW items a month before they are available to the public! I wanted to use them right away BUT didn’t necessarily want to do Christmas. So, my dilemma……….how do I use these obvious Christmas sets and NOT have it be Christmas.

I got out the Farmhouse Christmas stamp set, decided to use the tree AND the incredible fence!! Did you see the fence!!?? I stamped the tree on Soft Suede using Early Espresso ink. This stamp set better stick around because I can use that fence for a lot of things! Follow this link to see my video.

Isn’t it the cutest!!?? Not sure if you can see the Glitter snow in front of the fence, but in person it is very shiny and sparkly! The tree has snow in all its crannies. I used the Fine-Tip Glue pen to go over the white (used the chalk marker) and then sprinkled Dazzling Diamonds over the wet glue. I forgot how much I LOVE Dazzling Diamonds! I will be getting that out a lot more.

I stamped the ‘Love You’ from the Enjoy Life stamp set using Versamark and white embossing powder.

I layered these onto a piece of Early Espresso, but before I layered these onto white I wrapped some Burlap Ribbon around and adhered a True Gentleman button in the middle. If you look closely you can see a Rhinestone that I colored with the Bronze Blend to go into the middle of the button (I HATE threading linen thread through those tiny holes!). The final layer is Soft Suede to tie in all the colors.

I’m planning on doing this card in a class this month. Hope they like it as much as I do!

Below are all the supplies I used for this card. Click on any picture to be taken to my OnLine Store!

Thanks for stopping by! Check back in! I’m adding all my cards that I do for my classes to this blog!

Still Night NEW Stamp set in Holiday Catalog

August 24, 2018 Lisa Tedder Leave a comment

Hey Guys!

Today I am sharing with you an easy card that you can make if you are in a hurry. This can be for a man or woman! Those type of cards are hard to come by! I love the new Owl in the stamp set from Stampin’ Up! called Still Night. The branch can be used different ways and the owl can look different depending on how you color it.

I stamped the Buffalo Check stamp (also from SU!) onto Crumb cake using Early Espresso ink. Sponged the edges to make it look even more ‘old’. I stamped the owl on a scrap of Vanilla and colored it using the Soft Suede/Crumb Cake Blends. This stamp is EASY to color! I used the Die that matches the owl, put Dimensionals on the back and he is ready to put on my card! I die cut the branch from Soft Suede cardstock laid it over a Very Vanilla oval die cut with Stitched Framelits. I sponged the edges of the oval with Soft Suede and used the Early Espresso marker to add the stitched look.

I hope you like my easy card! I would love to hear what you think.

All the supplies are listed below, click on any picture to be taken to my OnLine Store!

Christmas in July Card # 3

July 30, 2018 Lisa Tedder 1 Comment

Hey Guys,

My class went really well for my Christmas in July! We made 5 designs where we made 3 of each design, and then made one of another, so my guests got to make 16 Christmas cards! We’ll be having 2 – 3 more of these classes but we will use different stamp sets! I love these classes and it also gets all my cards ready for Christmas! I don’t have to worry if I already sent a certain card to a family member/loved one because I ALWAYS make new Cards!

Here is the front of this one:

and the inside:

This was a fun one to make! The white snowflakes are stamped onto the Night of Navy using Versamark and white embossing powder. What a great way to make your own Designer Paper!

I colored my Rhinetones with my Night of Navy dark Blend! I also added Wink of Stella underneath the trees.

Hope you like it!

The supplies are listed below, click on any of the pictures and you will be taken to my OnLine Store!

Sneak Peek Rooted in Nature

May 3, 2018 Lisa Tedder 1 Comment

Hey Guys!

While at OnStage, an event that demonstrators attend to learn and get product early, I saw a card that made me make this card. I don’t know about you, but if I get an idea in my head it is very hard to wait to try and make it! I have a class that is at the Senior Center here in Kernersville that I bring elegant cards for the participants to make, this is one of the cards that we will be making soon.

I used the background stamp set Hardwood from SU! I stamped it with Versamark and then poured copper Embossing powder on it and heat set to make this dynamic background! Very easy (and still fun to do even after 17 years…….I LOVE to watch the magic of embossing!) yet this is a Stunner! The tree is from the NEW catalog from Stampin’ Up! called Rooted in Nature, that will be coming out in June 2018.

I got this set FOR FREE while at On Stage along with 4 other stamp sets! If you want a job where you get freebies, get to play every day and meet FANTASTIC people, join my team and become a Demonstrator!

I colored the Rhinestones using the Bronze Blends so it would all coordinate! THAT is the reason I decided to join SU!, I don’t have to guess which colors coordinate! Plus, I got the discount! hahahaha
