Round and Round........

Lisa and I created a similiar card to this one during one of our stamping evenings recently. We had so much fun playing with her SU! stash and loved the results. I love using the Big Shot to make cards - you can mass produce so easily & quickly. This uses the Scallop Circle die and the Clear Circle die - they fit perfectly. I also made a liner for the inside of the card - so easy peasy!

Supplies

Stamps: Upsy Daisy

Paper: To The Nines Designer Series Paper, Chocolate Chip, Sage Shadow & Whisper White

Ink: Chocolate Chip

Accessories: Corduroy Button, Hemp Twine, Very Vanilla Grosgrain Ribbon, Modern Label Punch, Sponge, Scallop Border Punch

A Heather Summer's CASE

I saw this card on the extremely talented Heather Summer's blog and knew that I had to try it out on my stamp club girls. I've had this stamp set for a year and never inked it up (for shame!). I emailed Heather and she kindly gave me her blessing to case her card for the club. (thank you Heather!) I think next time I would use a lighter ink instead of the versamark to get more of the shadow effect. I still like how the card came out though : )

Supplies

Stamps: Upsy Daisy

Paper: Melon Mambo, Pretty In Pink & Whisper White

Ink: Melon Mambo, Versamark

Accessories: Melon Mambo Polka Dot Ribbon, Modern Label Punch, Sponge, Stamp-A-Ma-Jig

Stamp Club Girls

We have great fun at our Stamp Club - lots of silliness and laughter. I hope my club ladies don't mind me sharing these pics of them because it really captures what our get togethers are like.

Soon I'll post what we made that night.

I'm Losing It.........

Stamp Club Card

Here is one of the cards we did at Stamp Club last week. Its funny but I had the medium envelopes in the kraft color and really wanted to make a card to go with them. Call me wierd - but that was the inspiration for this card! That and the fact that I wanted to make something with the Love You Much stamp set since Valentine's Day is coming up soon.

The paper is from the Sale-a-bration catalog called Delicate Dots (114674) as well as the poly-twill ribbon in Certainly Celery ( 114618 Ribbon Bundle-So Saffron, Certainly Celery). The best part of the card is the beautiful edge made with the newest punch, the Eyelet Edge punch. Its one of my top 5 things from the new catalog. I love it and it is super easy to use. We also decorate the inside of the card and used another new item, the Three Hearts punch and punched out some more of the Delicate Dots paper. One of our club girls, Andrea, does a great job decorating the envelopes so I usually ask her to do the honors. I love the way it all goes together!
Here's the inside:

Supplies:

Stamps: Love You Much

Ink: Certainly Celery, So Saffron & Bashful Blue markers

Paper: Delicate Dots DSP, Whisper White, Kraft & Certainly Celery
