Word Play

Hi Stampers,

It's Friday!!! AND . . . it's also my dad's birthday today. He's coming over to celebrate tonight.  The plan today is for Blake and I to bake him a cake. . . and stamp him a card. I love to have Blake help do things like this. :o)

Today I'd like to share with you a card using the Word Play stamp set. . . if you search my blog for Word Play you'll find lots of card samples, as I made one card using each of the 12 stamps from this set.

I shared this card with you before, but I always thought it was missing something, so I decided to add a little ribbon and that really changed the look.



What do you think?

Let me know if you have any questions, and enjoy your weekend!

Happy Stamping!

A Day out with Thomas

Hi Stampers,

So this past weekend my family spent in Chicagoland. . . we went to Legoland, saw Thomas the Train and did lots of shopping!!!  It's funny how Rocky bought LOTS more than I did. . . I'm so lucky he loves to shop.  However, he likes to shop at The Bass Pro Shop and Cabelas.

Today I'd like to share a couple of scrapbook pages I made using My Digital Studio from Stampin' Up!

My Digital Studio is priced at $79.95 and worth every penny.  Not only can you use the same great artwork, colors, and accessory images found in our current product line to create personalized digital projects. The options are endless: create photo albums, calendars, and greeting cards using My Digital Studio. Once you've created your personalized gift or heirloom, have it printed in our high-quality print facility and delivered to your door or print it at home.
 
This first page is the cover of my album.
 
 

And this second picture is a page from my album.



My Digital Studio is an awesome way to scrapbook.  I'm thinking about doing a bunch of albums and saving them as DVDs for my children to watch in the years to come.

Easter ~ Build-a-Bear

Hi Stampers,

I know Easter is a LONG way off, but I'd like to share with you this Build-a-Bear "framed art" Easter bear.  With being pregnant I didn't have the time (or energy) to have a mom and me class using the Easter die for the bears.

I really wanted to have a sample at the stamp fair, so I got out my dies and big shot and, "went to town"!


As with all of my framed art projects I like to keep the layout simple an easy.  Don't you just love those ears!!!

When you would with Build-a-bears a liquid glue is a MUST!!!  I like to use Stampin' Up! tombo multi purpose adhesive.

Let me know if you have questions!

Punch Caddies Not Available

As you know, the Punch Caddy is listed in the new Idea Book & Catalog (pg. 200) as “Coming soon.” We are disappointed to report, however, that due to serious production and quality issues with the manufacturer, we will not be able to offer the Punch Caddies at all. And because the manufacturer will likely not be able to meet our quality standards for the Punch Caddy in the future, we do not have any plans to offer a revised or equivalent product in its place.

We, like you, are disappointed that we cannot offer the Punch Caddies for sale. But because of our ongoing commitment to providing you with the highest quality products, we simply cannot allow this product to go live.

Stamp Fair ~ 3D project

Hi Stampers,

So last weekend Rocky and I took the kids to Union, IL to see and ride on Thomas the Train!!!  While Callie Ann won't remember it and slept through much of it, Blake had a blast!!!  This is the second year we've made the trip to see Thomas.  You can bet I have a ton of pictures to share with you. But until I have time to pull a few I'd like to share with you the 3D project we made at the Stamp Fair.


Stampers got to make this box and three cards with envelopes using the Big Shot and the Bitty Box & Envelope Stampin' Up! Bigz Xl Die.  The In Colors used are Pear Pizzazz, Concord Crush and Peach Parfait.  The stamp set is Silhouette Sentiments.

It’s amazing how easy it is to create an elegant card with a simple silhouette image and sincere sentiment. With images perfectly sized for small notecards, our Silhouette Sentiments set will have you creating gorgeous greetings in no time. These images are also perfect for adding graceful details to smaller accents, such as punched shapes, for scrapbook pages and other projects. Available both in wood-mount and clear-mount.

If you have any questions, please ask!

Stamp Fair Project #2

Today I'd like to share with you the second card we made at the Stamp Fair.

Wouldn't you just love to receive this thank you card in the mail . . . who knows . . . maybe you will?  :o)

Stamp Fair Sample #1

Hi Stampers,

So last Saturday was the Stamp Fair and we had such a groovy time. :o)  Today I'd like to share with you one of the cards stampers got to make.

The first step to make this card is to rub the Whisper White craft pad onto the base card stock and let it dry.


Then using matching ink pads we stamped the images from the Just Believe stamp set.  After stamping we punched out the squares and lined them up.

If you look close you will see a pearl in the circle.

I hope you enjoyed this project and I hope you enjoyed making the card last weekend even more!

Today I'd like to share with you a card that I received in the mail for my birthday a couple of weeks ago.  My friend, and downline member, Britni sent me this card.


For this card Britni got out her Big Shot to cut the Whisper White card stock and used the Eyelet Boarder Punch along the card stock.  As the card sample yester the flowers came from the Awash with Flowers stamp set.

All in the family meets Awash with Flowers

Hi Stampers,

I'm very excited to share with you today a card that uses the All in the Family stamp set and Awash with Flowers.

I think it's so cute to turn the flowers "upside down" and add a head to each one.  I was inspired by both a fellow stamper, and a convention swap my upline brought back from Utah.


I used Crystal Effects and Dazzling Diamonds to add a little "bling" to the dresses.


Colors used are Melon Mambo, Basic Black and Daffodil Delight.  I also used the Blush Blossom marker to color in the faces.
 
If you have any questions, please ask!

On The Green

Hi Stampers,

Today I'd like to share with you a sample that uses the stamp, On The Green.  This was another card that club members got to make last week.  If you are interested in one of my card clubs new clubs will be starting in January. . . I hope you will join me. :o)

Celebrate the golfers in your life with the On the Green stamp. Use it on birthday cards, gifts, scrapbook pages, and more. It's chock-full of golfing images and sentiments--use them together as shown, or ink a portion of the stamp to use just one image.  Since Rocky is a golfer I just knew I wanted to get this stamp.



To get the Wild Wasabi golfer I first inked the stamp in Chocolate Chip.  I then used an blender pen to remove the ink from the golfer.  Next I used my Wild Wasabi marker to make the golfer green.

The Wild Wasabi card stock was ran though the Big Shot using the Perfect Polka-dot embossing folder.

If you have any questions, please ask!

Extreme Dirt Bike

Hi Stampers,

Today I'd love to share with you a card club members stamped last week.  It uses the Extreme Dirt Bike stamp (115175 Price: $8.95).  Flips and tricks can be hard to master on a bike, but with the Extreme Dirt Bike image, you can make a perfect landing every time!



For this card I used Old Olive, Whisper White and Basic Black.  The image was stamped in versamark and then embossed with black embossing powder.  I punched the black with the spiral punch then tied a little hemp twine around it.  Birthday Wishes is from the hostess set, Occasional Quotes.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Build-a-Bear Onesies & Stamp Fair

Hi Stampers,

Don't you just love the Build-a-Bear dies!!!  I think they rock and now that I have a girl I am really having lots of fun with making little girl bears.  :o)

As you know yesterday was the stamp fair I have been talking about it for a month or so.  The groovy theme was so much fun. . . here are a few pictures.  I didn't get as many as I had liked, but I do have a few to share.


Here I am in my groovy outfit. . . to decorate my apron I used the pennant die and some groovy material. . . and see that Onesie I'm holding. . . I made that using my Build-a-Bear dies and Big Shot I had a lot of fun making some onesies to have on display.

Here's a close up of the bear.


But wait . . . I have a couple more to share with you today.  With Halloween just around the corner I made a onesie for Callie Ann to wear. . . now I need to make another bear and put it on a shirt, as Blake wants one too. :o)



And this last onesie is the one I am the most excited about. . . I used the pennant die to make a "skirt" around the bottom.  I can't wait to get Callie Ann in this onesie.  However, it will be a few months as it was a 9 month onesie.


I really LOVE this die . . . don't you?


Thanks for stopping by today and enjoy your Sunday!

Word Play 11 & 12

Hi Stampers . . .

It's stamp fair day and I am looking forward to seeing many of you very soon!!!

I have LOTS of new samples to share with you today and I can't wait to see your response to my Build-a-Bear projects.  I'll share them on my blog soon, as I wanted to get instant feedback when I share them with people for the first time. :o)

Since today is special (stamp fair day!) I'd like to share with you not one, but the final two Word Play cards. . . . get excited!!!



I'm really loving the new embossing folder I got.  It makes such deep impressions in the card stock!

And this last card is VERY SIMPLE...the DSP is just torn and the laughter is popped up with a stampin dimensional.


Of course you can bet I'll share more cards using this stamp set in the future as I hope Word Play will be around for a few years. In fact below is a revised version of a prior card I shared with you.  I decided punch some white card stock and add to the project in place of the white strip.  Click HERE to see the first card.


Happy Stamping!
Georgia

p.s.  You don't need to wait until 4am to read today's post as I posted it automatically since I was still up and it's now STAMP FAIR DAY!!!  Can you tell I'm excited?  I better get to bed, so I can get up and stamp!  It's gonna be a fun day.

Word Play #10

Hi Stampers,

Do you know what today is???  It's FRIDAY THE 13TH!!!  Watch out for black cats! :o)

Well I am almost done sharing my 12 Word Play samples with you.  I have them all done and if you are coming to the Stamp Fair tomorrow make sure to check out my display board.

If you have not signed up for the fair yet. . . fear not!  There is still room. Just let me know ASAP and I'll get you signed up.

The word play card today kinda makes me "sick" when I look at it for a long time. . . . I think it's a mixture of the colors and the card stock strips in the back.



I think the stamp says it all. . . don't you?

Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to seeing some of you at the Stamp Fair tomorrow!  Make sure to tell me hi and don't forget your groovy clothes!

Happy Stamping!

Build-a-Bear Clock

Hi Stampers,

Last night was card club and I was so excited to have a full house of ladies stamping!  Blake was good (for the most part) with some help from Amanda to keep him busy in the toy room.  I hope you all had lots of fun!!!

After everyone left I had a few hours to play in my stamp room, before I got ready for bed. . . . while making samples for the Stamp Fair on Saturday I decided to pull out my Build-a-Bear dies and made a clock to put in Callie Ann's room.

Before I share the clock picture with you I wanted to share a picture of Callie Ann.  She's two months now and this outfit screams Stampin' Up!  Don't you think?

I can't wait until Callie Ann gets into Stampin' Up! :o)

OK . . now I'm sure you'd like to see the new clock for Callie Ann's room. . . right???


It was very simple to make. . . . I just "built" a bear and attached it to the glass using Mini Glue Dots.

Here's a close up of the bear.


Thanks for stopping by today and make sure to check out this clock in person at the Stamp Fair.  I will have it along with lots more build-a-bear samples.

Oval Labels Chalkboard Décor Elements

Hi Stampers,

Have you seen tried the Chalkboard Décor Elements yet?  I have one in my kitchen and I love it.  Now I just got the Oval Labels Chalkboard Décor Elements "up".  These Oval Labels Chalkboard Décor Elements come in a pack of 3 (121019 Price: $5.95).




Our Labels Chalkboard Décor Elements appeal to everyone—adults and children alike—who are mesmerized by the ability to create something and then erase it and start all over again. They’re a unique and fun way to get children involved in organizing their spaces or labeling their things. And if things change, it’s easy. All it takes is a damp cloth to erase it and start all over again.

I put one of the ovals on a glass jar and put some stamps in it.  I need to get some different chalk to use, because it's hard to write nice using Blake's Jumbo sidewalk chalk. :o)



What would you put in your jar?

Enjoy your Saturday!

Word Play ~ 7th Card

Hi Stampers,

Happy Friday!!!  Now that I'm back to work I look forward to Friday once again and spending time with the kids. :o)  This week wasn't bad at all, because two of the five days I got to take Callie Ann with me to the office and Blake went to grandma's house as our sitter was closed.

Just a reminder . . . next Saturday is the Stamp Fair!!!  There is still time to register for this event. . . just let me know.

As I mentioned before I will have my Word Play card samples there for you to look at in person. :o)  For today's share I have the 7th card sample to share with you.


Do you like how I "tied" the ribbon on this card?  It's a build-a-brad.  I just wrapped it around the ribbon to hold in place.


Thanks for stopping by today and make sure to contact me if you'd like to come to the stamp fair next Saturday.

Have a GREAT weekend!

Word Play ~ 6th Card

Hi Stampers,

I'm very happy to share with you the 6th sample I made using Word Play!  This means I am 1/2 way though sharing every stamp in this set with you! :o)  I have been using other stamp sets too, so I'll put those samples in here and there too . . . this way you don't have a whole week of nothing but Word Play! :o)

The card today uses Wild Wasabi and Chocolate Chip Card Stock.  I used the scallop bigz die and ran it through the big shot.  Then I used the Perfect Polka-dot embossing folder on the card stock.


If you look close you'll notice that the actual "world" was punched out and attached with a Stampin' Dimensional.  It's hard to see in the picture.  If you come to the Stamp Fair on August 14th you'll beable to look at this card.  It's not to late to register.

Talk to you soon!

Thanks again for stopping by!
