Poppin Good Birthday~Walk in the Park SC228

House of Mouse~Poppin Good Birthday

I have not been into my House of Mouse stamps in quite awhile. I have missed coloring them!
Today's sketch challenge gave me the perfect opportunity to break out my copic markers and koh-i-noor pencils. I used mineral oil to blend my pencils, starting with the darker color first.

Card stock colors are So Saffron, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue and Whisper White.

Both Dp's are from the Walk in the Park collection which you can find in the Occasions Mini Catalog.

Present image is from the SU Holiday Blitz stamp set. This is a great set with something for each Holiday/Occasion. I seem stamps from it quite often!
The ribbon accent is So Saffron.

The UPS man just brought me my latest Stampin' Up goodies! I am off to play with some new papers! Don't forget to take advantage of the Buy 3 get 1 free designer paper promotion! It ends May 31, 2009!



Have a Happy Day!

Manhattan Flower Textured Impressions Die~Yellow Rose CC218

Yellow Rose of Manhattan~Color Challenge 218~Summer Sun, Kiwi Kiss & Only Orange.

I just received my new Manhattan Flower Textured Impressions Die! It had been back ordered and I am actually still waiting for a package to arrive with all my Manhattan DP's and ribbons! I had to take advantage of the "Buy 3 packs get 1 free" promotion. I was going to wait to try this die out but when I saw today's color challenge on SCS I decided to try it on yellow.

I was very "impressed" (haha) with the quality of the embossing on this die! I did not have to add any extra shims! This was a very simple card, after running the embossing folder with my Summer sun card stock through my Big Shot, I used the Kiwi kiss, Summer Sun & Whisper White Stampin' Pastels to color the embossed image. I added a bit of dazzling diamonds glitter to a few spots with my glue pen.
The sentiment is punched out with the oval punch and I used Summer Sun pastel to rub the edges. Only orange cs on the new scalloped oval punch. Ribbon is the Whisper White organza!

Have a SUNNY day!

Bandanna technique~True Friend, Boho Backgrounds kraft card

WHAT? A card with no Designer Paper??

It's true! No Dp was used int he making of this card. :-)
Yesterday I was challenged to "try a new technique" This was to stamp an image and then doodle around it with a white gel pen to make it resemble a bandanna!

You can try this with ANY color card stock, then choose a stamp and stamp it all over in black OR a color similar to the color card stock your using. Then get your white gel pen and start making dots, dashes & squiggly lines.

For my card I used kraft card stock and used stamps from the True Friend #110378 and Boho Backgrounds #114940 in black Stazon ink. I doodled with my opaque white gel pen #105021. I also used black & whisper white card stock. The ribbon is So Saffron #111364.
I stamped my sentiment & larger image in riding hood red. The larger image was cut out and doodled with black ink then a die cut flower and gem were added. I will be adding another color combination in this technique soon!

Give it a try!

Have a CREATIVE day!

Inspiration~ Vintage French Cherries~IC217 Bella Rose & Kraft Paper Card

Today splitcoaststampers had an "inspiration challenge" (IC217).  We were told to a website~Bonjour mon coussin~and choose a cushion as an inspiration for a card.
This is the cushion I chose as my inspiration!
I started with kraft card stock , then added riding hood red & kiwi kiss card stock and ink.
I used my corner rounder punch on the card corners and to scallop the kiwi kiss accent card stock.  I ran some kraft & ridinghood red through my Big Shot using the scalloped oval nestabilities. To these ovals I added doodle dots in chocolate chip & white. 
I used the cherries fromt he Tart & Tangy stamp set for my image , again in ridinghood red with chocolate chip, kiwi kiss and garden green accents. I also used chocolate chip ink on a sponge dauber to give the edges an aged look. I did this on all my ovals, card edges and my twill tape.
The vintage looking gingham paper is from the Bella Rose paper collection. The sentiment is from the Oval All stamp set along with the scalloped oval & oval punches. I popped my sentiment & image up on dimensionals!

Have a FAMILY FUN day!

Walk in the Park Candle Caddy Box & Card

After yesterdays Mother's day project with the 1st graders, I had 6 candles left over! When I saw the WT217 (make something with Kraft card stock)challenge on Splitcoaststampers today I came up with this idea.

I designed the template for this box to be a candle caddy but I may use it again for other items. I made the divider inserts and they can be adjusted to hold other items, I have a few more things in mind.
I was really happy with how the handle came out.This would be a great gift set for a friend or Mother's Day!
I hope to have time to put up a tutorial on how I made this project soon. I took a few pictures at the beginning of laying it out. It's hard for me to write a tutorial on something new as I am designing it. Now that I have worked out the kinks I can go back and do directions. These last 2 weeks of school are so hectic. We have several games and performances in all the extracurricular activities.
The base to the card and box are kraft card stock, I used kiwi kiss card stock for accents & the designer paper is ALL from the Walk in Park set.

I also used every one of the stamps in the Great Friend stamp set. Both the designer paper pack and stamp set can be found in the Occasions Mini Catalog.  You can order these items by clicking my "Order Online " button to the right.
Remember that right now you can order 3 sets of designer paper and get your 4th pack FREE!

Texture plate & Stampin' Pastels Wedding card~ Fun & Fast Notes CC217

The joy of Stampin' Pastels! (#105542)
The great part of having a set of Stampin' pastels is that I know I have something in all 4 color groups right at my fingertips. The pastels are a great bargain for the price. I have found that I use them a lot to match my coloring with card stock. If you have been slowly collecting markers and ink pads to get all the wonderful SU colors, the pastel set and blender pens come in so handy!

I designed this card for a color challenge, in the end I loved the layout I came up with but its not my favorite color combination. The CC217 color challenge was to make a card using Garden Green, Ballet Blue & Cameo Coral.

I thought I would share it because I love the texture (Texture backgrounds 1 #114512 ) & layout. I also love the wedding cake image from the Fun & Fast notes #113500. I colored the cakes with Stampin' Pastels#105542 in Cameo coral, garden green & ballet blue. I added some dazzling diamonds glitter over the blue on the cake plates.

I would make this card again maybe just changing the card stock accent colors. I think mostly white with a light gray or silver card stock would be really lovely for this layout.
I also used a bit of our Whisper White organza ribbon, a paper flower dusted with Cameo Coral pastel, and a pearl center.

I thought I would also share a funny little video. I have a nine year old Persian cat, he does this funny thing to my husband every night when he begs to get on his lap. I kept trying to catch it on video and I finally we did.





Well I am off to the school to help the 1st graders make explosion boxes with candles inside for Mother's day! That's a whole lot of explosion boxes! I have modified them a bit to make it easier for the kids to make (no paper flower on top, we are doing silk flowers on top) will share some pictures of our finished gifts!

Have a GREAT day!

Clean & Simple Card~Bold Brights~He Loves me, He Loves me not...


He Loves me, He loves me not, He LOVES me!

I had the idea for this card when coming up with a CAS challenge card. It is such a simple but fun card to make! (CAS13 on SCS)
I used my Bold Brights card stock #105548 and my Whisper White card stock.

Cut White card stock for a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" inch card

Punch out 6 Yoyo Yellow circles with the 1" circle punch.

Punch out 6 Pixie pink flowers with a flower punch.

Cut a piece of super thin green ribbon or card stock for your stem, I used another piece tied in a knot for my leaves. You could also stamp a stem if you have a stem stamp.

Using a 2 way glue pen # 100425 do the center of your flowers in a circle with your glue then add dazzling diamonds glitter #102023. Shake off excess glitter.

Adhere flowers to center of yellow circles, (I slightly bend my petals up for dimension) now you can pluck your petals off! Just like a real flower.

I used a stamp from the SAB Yummy set.



Have a LOVELY day!

Father's Day Shirt Cuff card ~Inside picture & poem


I had a few requests to see what we have done to the inside of the shirt cuff card and the poem we used.

Here is a view of the inside~a picture I took of my guys at the Cadillac Graveyard outside of Amarillo TX. This is one of my favorite Father & Son pictures.

The poem is by an unknown author.

Footprints

"Walk a little slower, Daddy,"
said a child so small.
"I'm following in your footsteps
and I don't want to fall.

Sometimes your steps are very fast,
Sometimes they're hard to see;
So walk a little slower, Daddy,
For you are leading me.


Someday when I'm all grown up,
You're what I want to be;
Then I will have a little child
Who'll want to follow me.

And I would want to lead just right,
And know that I was true;
So, walk a little slower, Daddy,
For I must follow you."

~ Author Unknown


Hope that helps!

Basic Black Monogrammed Note Card~Inspired by Faviana Prom dress~IT178

Today's card is a little different in that I combined two splitcoaststampers challenges into one card, I used Just Rite DIY monogram stamps Times New Roman & designer paper from The Glitter Stack.

The challenges were WT216~to use SU basic black card stock and make a card & IT178 to use a Faviana Prom dress as your inspiration for a card.

You can see the dress I chose as my inspiration here~ Faviana #6162.

I love the inspiration challenges, if you have never tried one before you should give it a go! You can find them on Saturdays here.

This is a pretty clean & simple card. I thought our new Designer hardware basic jumbo grommets fit the challenge perfectly. You can find them in the Mini Occasions Catalog , #114348. I added a 1/2" circle punch of the glitter paper to the center of my grommet.

Have a RESTFUL Day!

Masculine Birthdays Count ~ Walk in the Park ~ Occasions Mini Catalog

Since today is the FINAL DAY for the Get Connected promotion in the Occasions Mini Catalog, I thought I would share a card I made from all the goodies from that catalog. The stamp set I used is one I earned free in the promotion.
The designer paper is Walk in the Park #115123, the card stock is Kiwi kiss, basic gray & whisper white.  I used one of the brand new Designer Hardware Basic Jumbo Grommets in whisper white #114348 along with Taffeta ribbon in basic gray #109064.
I used the stamps from the Birthdays Count Mini Note Kit #116210 which I earned free in the promotion (this is one of the sets you can choose from the catalog on pg 208) They are inked in


kiwi kiss and basic gray classic ink.
I also used the pocket die by Sizzix in my Big Shot, this lets my sentiment slide in and out on the front of the card.
Scalloped & 1 1/2" circle punches were used to create the circle for the grommet.
I love this card so much that I am going to make one with a Father's Day sentiment.




Have a PRODUCTIVE day!

CC216 Black & White Lotus Birthday Card~Big Shot embossing folder & Sizzix Die

Today's Splitcoaststampers color challenge (CC216) was "Real Black Olives" Make a card using Stampin' Up card stock in Real Red, Old Olive, Black & Whisper White.

I did most of this card on my Big Shot! I began by using one of my new Simple Impressions Embossing Folder~Border Dots by Sizzix on my Whisper White cs. The Old Olive Cs was cut on my Big Shot with the "Scribbles Swirls" die by Sizzix, I added Real Red accents using the same die. I used my ziggy glue pen to glue the swirls on. The card corners were rounded with the corner rounder punch.

My stamped sentiment is from a set of Amy Butler stamps called "Lotus Greetings" and inked in Stazon black. I used the ticket corner punch on my stamped piece and adhered it to black cs using dimensionals. I finished it up with some red & olive sticky gems and a piece of black organza ribbon.

I really love how classy this card came out, it would be a great card for a man or woman. with just a few changes it would make a really lovely invitation or announcment!


Have a Great day!

Popsicle invitation cards & Sour Cream Party Favors

Creamsicles!

Orange, Lemon, Lime, & Cherry~YUM!


We had glorious sunshine today! It got up to 80! We went outside, had a picnic lunch & popsicles! Then we hooked up Mt.Tiki Soki! My son's volcano water toy. we had great wet fun! (I don't know what is with that price on Amazon because we bought ours for under $30. Maybe because they aren't being made anymore??)

I turned to my citrus & bright colored papers. These popsicle cards are so CUTE! They can be made into great party invitations for birthdays or pool parties. They also make great cards for children.
I have even made them scratch n sniff on the fruits! (I will put up scratch n sniff instructions later this month.) The kids love the scratch and sniff fruit!

The sour cream container party favors can hold so many different treats! I have made these adorable containers for so many holidays & occasions. They are so easy to make!

I used the Stampin' Up Tart & Tangy #111514 stamp set.
The card stocks are from the Bold Brights collection #105548, as are the inks.
The tags are made with the scalloped punch #109043, ( for Sour cream tags 1 1/4" #104403. & 1 3/8" #104401 circle punches.)
For the popsicles you will also need a corner rounder punch #109047 & a horizontal slot punch #105089
Dimensionals
Popsicle stick
Ribbon

For Popsicle cards~
Cut colored cardstock 4" by 5" and score at 2 1/2", fold for card
Cut a piece of whisper white card stock for inside at 2 1'4" by 3 3/4"

Use your scalloped circle punch on upper right card corner by only punching out the corner like a bite mark, sicne the punch will not go through both layers of the card at once, do the front, then close card and line your punch up exactly to the first punch marks and punch the back side out.
Now use your corner rounder punch and do all remaining corners of your card and your white card stock. (except for the bite corner)

Using dotto or a repositionable adhesive, place white card stock inside the card lining up and again using your scalloped circle punch line it up exactly with the punch marks on the colored card stock, then pull your punch out about 1/8 of an inch and punch. This will leave the white "bite mark" sticking out further so it looks like a dreamsicle. Now remove your white card stock.
Using your horizontal slot punch open your card and center your HSpunch in the center of the bottom edge of the back of the card. Slide punch in all the way and punch, pull back just a bit (about a 1/4" below first punch) and punch a second time. You should now have 2 slots punched out for your popsicle stick to slide into. After sliding your popsicle stick in, add 4 dimensionals to your white card stock and adhere over the popsicle stick.

Punch out a stamped Tart & Tangy image with your scalloped circle punch and adhere to the front of your card with a dimensional. Tie a piece of ribbon to your stick!


Have a POPSICLE day! We did!

Sweet One~Baby Shower favor & Tri fold Card WT215

Embossed Tri fold car with Glitter Window technique~

Wow! I have gone from one extreme to the other since yesterdays Bold & Bright card! Today I was challenged (SCSWT215) to make a card using ONLY white card stock! I decided I needed to do up a baby boy card and when I was done I created a Baby Shower favor to coordinate. I used my new Matchbox Die & Matchbox messages stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog.

This card could easily be adapted into a baby announcement for a boy or girl. It would also be very easy to make it a photo announcement too.
I have been emailed a few times about doing custom announcements and yes I do take custom orders for invitations and announcements.

I started with white card stock that I turned into a tri fold card, I ran some whisper white cs through my Big Shot with a texture plate then I used my corner rounder to scallop the edge. Once my edge was scalloped I used my Stampin' Pastel in Bashful Blue to color the edge, from there I added some glue and dazzling diamonds glitter. I adhered this to the outside. Then I used my stampin' pastels and did a few of the embossed hearts with same treatment as the edge.
For the other side I ran a piece of whisper white through the big shot with the Swiss dots texture plate, then I used my finger and rubbed bashful blue pastel lightly over it so the embossed dots would get some soft color.

Now for the fun! I used the glitter window technique for the glitter flowers. I really wanted to do hearts here but my heart punch was nowhere to be found so I settled for my flower punch. This technique is very simple. Punch out your desired shape with your punch. Then on the back side cover over the opening with a piece of clear packing tape with the sticky side facing up. Now turn your card over and sprinkle your glitter generously, tap off excess! That's it! Now you have a glitter window!

I used whisper white organza ribbon to close my card, adhering it only under the scalloped tag and then wrapping it around the card to tie closed. The tag was made with the new scalloped punch & matchbox messages stamp set. Ink & pastels are all done in Bashful blue.

The matchbox baby shower favor & tag were made with the new Stampin' Up Matchbox die, matchbook messages stamped flower border with dazzling diamonds glitter. Bashful blue & whisper white cardstock.

Have a PEACEFUL Day!

Got Sunglasses? Bright Boho Friend card SC225

I must apologize for not posting in the morning like usual! I know a lot of you have said you check my blog in the morning! This week my Son is on Spring break and my schedule is out the window! I'm finding that I have to wait till his batteries wear out before I have some quiet time to post, this seems to be at bedtime LOL

OK so today's card is a "bit" bright but I was ready for some summer color! Seems like I had been on a roll with pinks lately.
A couple of things brought this card together~
This was a sketch challenge on SCS (Split Coast Stampers) and I really liked the layout. I also had a delivery of new stamps from the UPS man and I was anxious to use them! I wanted to see if I could make a card I liked without using any designer paper, only card stock and background stamps.
Since I spent part of my childhood in the Southwest I wanted to bring in the warmth of those beautiful sunsets on the mesa and the bright happy color of turquoise. I did some distressing on my whisper white by tearing it then fraying the edges, I rolled it back a little for the flowers to peek out. I used a few red gems and some dazzling diamonds glitter for a bit of sparkle.

Recipe~
Bold Brights Card Stock: #105548

  • Tempting Turquoise card stock
  • YoYo Yellow card stock stamped & sponged with apricot appeal ink
  • Only Orange card stock stamped & sponged with Ruby Red ink
Stamps
Accessories~
  • 1 1/4" circle punch
  • sticky gems
  • paper cutter
  • bone folder
  • adhesive
  • dimensionals
  • Dazzling diamonds glitter
Have a GREAT night!

Cards using the Big Shot~CC215~Changito


I used today's Split Coast Stamper color challenge (CC215) to make a birthday card & play with some new goodies for my Big Shot #113439.

The color challenge was to make a card using the Stampin' Up colors of Pink Pirouette, Rose Red & Basic Gray!

I started by running my pink pirouette card stock #111351 through my Big Shot with a flourish texture plate.

I also cut & embossed my Red Rose & Whisper White card stock scalloped ovals in the Big Shot using my Nestabilities. On the Rose red oval I added some doodle dots with my white gel pen. My birthday cake stamp is part of the Fun & Fast notes stamp set #113500, I then colored the birthday cake with my Stampin' Pastels #105542 and topped it off with a bit of dazzling diamond glitter # 102023. I also used the Whisper White Organza ribbon #114319

My basic gray dot designer paper is part of a Hostess only reward. You can earn this by hosting a party or submitting orders totaling $150 (before tax and shipping)! Don't forget! This is in addition to the Occasions Mini Catalog promotion going on this month!

**I had a little extra time today so I snuck in another color challenge card. I really wanted to play with some more of the new dies I got for my Big Shot. I love Changito Monkey and is silly antics. I thought he was perfect for this funky retro frame die. I also ran the frame back through the Big Shot with the vines texture plate to emboss. The sentiment is from the new Great Friend stamp set in the Occasions mini catalog. I added some kaiser pearls in white and a gem brad to the die cut flower. I colored Changito with my copic markers.



Have a FANTASTIC day!

Italian Brunch & Botanical Blooms!

It's such a lovely Spring day today so I thought I would share a picture of the Italian Brunch I made this morning! After weeks of snow and rain we have a beautiful sunny day and were able to eat outside on our new deck. I had seen these recipes on the Today show over the past couple weeks and decided they would all go together for a lovely outdoor brunch.

These recipes were so easy and came out so lovely! I have already come up with a alternate southwestern version of the baked eggs in ham cups.

Baked eggs in ham cups use the thin ham as the liner for the muffin tin, then you pour in your raw egg, drizzle a bit of pesto, top with mozzarella, a cherry tomato and sprig of parsley. After you bake them they pop out like a cupcake! The salt from the ham seasons the egg just right!
I made them like the recipe for my family but for mine I scrambled the raw egg and they come out great that way also!

Then we had almond crusted Ciabatta bread french toast, Oh my this is going to be a family favorite since we love marzipan and almond anything! We topped with powdered sugar (my 6 year old got a little carried away with that LOL) and then real maple syrup from vermont.

For dessert we had Mascarpone cheese cupcakes with strawberry glaze. These cupcakes are so light, fluffy & moist! The glaze is crushed strawberries and confectioners sugar. These would be great for showers. The recipe called for making mini cupcakes but we made full size cupcakes.
If you would like the recipes for these awesome Brunch items you can find them HERE on the Today Show's website.

Cupcakes are HERE


Next time we are going to try a Southwestern version of the Ham cups and use green chile and cheddar in scrambled egg and top with pico de gallo and a sprig of cilantro!

I also made this Botanical Blooms card that covered 2 challenges. One challenge was to make a card that had a frame on it, the other was to use a Stampin' Wheel, an image stamp & one sentiment stamp.
I used the Sale A Bration Botanical Blooms stamp set for this card, It is a 2 step stamp set. In my Stampin' wheel I used the the "Bella's Bloom" wheel stamp.
Designer Paper is Raspberry Tart
Card stock is Rose red, Whisper white, Pretty in Pink & Kiwi Kiss
SU classic Ink is Rose Red, Pretty in Pink, Kiwi Kiss, Certainly Celery.
BIG SHOT~I used the texture plates #1 set with the big dots on my white card stock, the embossed oval frame was also cut on my Big Shot.
Sentiment was cut out with the oval punch
Certainly Celery ribbon



Have a YUMMY day!

Parisian Breeze Gift Card holder with Mini Notes

Parisian Breeze Designer Paper #113993
I originally designed this card for a color challenge (Bashful Blue, So Saffron & Close to Cocoa)
The gift card is 5x7 and inside holds four 3x3 mini note cards. This makes a super cute gift for a friend. They can use the mini notes inside. The sentiments on the large card says "A little something for you" & is from the SAB Yummy stamp set. The mini notes inside says 1)Thank you, 2)Best Wishes, 3)Fabulous Friend, 4)Just for you. This is the new "Oval All" stamp set from the Occasions catalog. They coordinate with the new scalloped oval punch.

The large card features Parisian Breeze designer paper, bashful blue card stock and So saffron ribbon. The bashful blue was cut from the SU exclusive Top Note die for the Big shot. The flower is the "Layered flower #3" die & flower center is from the buttons #5 sizzix die. It was topped off with Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

Mini notes are cut from So Saffron, Bashful Blue, Close to Cocoa & Whisper white card stock. They are stamped with the Stampin' around wheel using the Bella's border stamp. I colored the Oval All stamped punches with the Stampin' Pastels.

The Kitty & mouse are a cuttlebug die.
The inside sentiment was stamped in Kiwi Kiss & Red riding hood red ink with the Freinds 24/7 stamp set.
