Mosaic Madness In Color

The new Stampin' Up! catalog is here!  New stamps, new tools and new colors!  Here is one card I made up with some new stuff.

I really like the new, fresh colors. I have used Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe and Baked Brown Sugar here.  The stamp set, Mosaic Madness has a coordinating punch and also is sold in a "bundle" for a 15% discount.  Use these numbers for the bundle (132734[W]; 132733[C]). The background was made using the new embossing folder Modern Mosaic.

If you have seen the stamp set images (p. 123), you may have noticed that I cheated a little on the Baked Brown Sugar shapes.  Instead of cutting them out by hand, I used the Itty Bitty Punch that is a little smaller than the original image.

Stamps:  Mosaic Madness (130246[W]; 130249[C]), Perfectly Penned (128703[W]; 122892[C])
Paper:  Costal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, Whisper White
Ink:  Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, Baked Brown Sugar
Tools:  Itty Bitty Punch Pack (118309), Modern Mosaic Embossing Folder (129984), Mosaic Punch (131267)
Accessories:  Basic Rhinestones (119246), Dimensionals (104430)

All Dressed Up in Flowers

I just fell in love with the Dress Up Framelits dies in the Stampin' Up! Spring Catalog.  When you get your hands on these it will take you down memory lane to the days when you played with paper dolls.  If you didn't play with paper dolls, you missed out.  Do they even make paper dolls anymore?

This is also a great way to use up little scraps of DSP and other card stock.  The ovals cut from the oval framelits make a great background, and notice the faux stitching around the white oval.  That was easy with the template in the Occasions Paper Piercing Pack.  The flowers were made from 3  1-1/4" scallop circles scrunched and glued together with some Tombo multi-purpose glue.  A Large Rhinestone sits in the center.  I like using glue dots to adhere paper flowers so they won't fall off.

Stamps:  Friendly Phrases (126149[W]; 126151[C])
Ink:  Tangerine Tango
Paper:  Baja Breeze, Rich Razzleberry, Tangerine Tango, Whisper White, Basic Gray, Floral District DSP (126919)
Accessories:  Large Rhinestones (129324), Basic Rhinestones (119246), Tangerine Tango 1/4" ribbon (Sale-a-bration)
Tools:  Dress Up Framelits (130101), Oval Framelits (129381), Occasions Paper-Piercing Pack (129387), Paper Piercing Tool (126189), Stampin' Pierce Mat (126199), 1-1/4 Scallop Circle Punch (127811), Itty Bitty Shapes Punches (118309), Large Oval Punch (119855), Scallop Oval Punch (119856), and of course the star - The Big Shot! Whew, I think that's everything.  There are quite a few tools used for this one.

Here is another card I made with the Dress Up Framelits.  I cased this card from another demonstrator, but don't have the link.  I just love this card for a wedding.  I made this for Mary!  Congratulations!

The colors I used are Primrose Petals, Basic Black and Very Vanilla.  To get the two shades of Primrose Petals, I simply stamped off.  The stamp set is Secret Garden (129141[W]; 129144]C]), and the sentiment is from Petite Pairs (122495[W]; 122497[C])

The soft colors of this vintage valentine look so pretty together.  The paper doily adds just the right romantic touch to my handmade valentine.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all my stamping friends and anyone who enjoys creativity.  Here's to a new year full of new opportunities to be creative and enjoy life and friendships.

This stamp is from the assortment of single stamps offered through Stampin' Up! for a limited time; New Years (132336).  The image was stamped in VersaMark and heat embossed in gold.  I used a Basic Black card base, Brushed Gold and Whisper White card sock, and Champagne Glimmer Paper.  The stars were punched from a retired punch, and the scallop was cut using the Big Shot and the Tasteful Trim Bigz XL Die (120893).  A bit of 1/8" Black Taffeta Ribbon (119261) finishes it off.

Joyous Christmas Tags

Christmas season is now officially upon us and we are in the fray of getting those precious gifts ready and packaged up nicely for those we love.  Every package deserves a handmade gift tag!

These adorable tags are made using the Joyous Christmas Tags stamp set and the coordinating oval Designer Frames embossing folder (123130).  The Raspberry Ripple Stitched Ribbon adds a little color.  Even though my photography is not great , Rudolf has a sparkly nose - just a dot of Dazzling Details Glitter glue in Cherry Cobbler did the trick, and Rhinestone Basic Jewels add some sparkle.

Scentsational Tags

I love making tags.  They don't take much time, yet they are a like a spectacular mini card front, and  add that unique touch to your gift giving.

With the Big Shot as your companion, these tags are a breeze.  Just cut out the size of back you want from the Labels Collection Framelits Dies, pierce every-other-hole around the edge using the Paper-Piercing guide, then stitch around just like when you were a kid sewing laces in your sewing cards.  You are now ready for the fun Christmas shapes, which are also cut from framelits - this time from the Holiday Collection.  Stamp first, then line up and cut.  I used a couple dimensionals to the back of my gingerbread boy and tree.

If you are like me and love a good deal, then buy the stamp set and coordinating framelits in a money saving bundle!  Thank you Stampin' Up!

Stamps:  Sentsational Season (121026[W]; 121190[C] or bundled with Holiday Collection Framelits 129945[W]; 129945[C])

Gently Falling

It must be fall, it is September after all, but the weather says it's still SUMMER!  Love the warm days (and cooler nights).

I had various colors of card stock on my table from projects I was cutting for my classes.  These three colors happened to get stacked together, and I thought, wow, these look great together!  Soft Suede, More Mustard and Baja Breeze.  I added in a little Crumb Cake too for good measure.

Don't let this stamp set intimidate you.  Even though it is a two-step set, the clear mount stamps allow you to "eyeball" the outline (I stamped the inside or color first, then the outline second).  The style of the stamp gives you a little wiggle room and doesn't demand perfection, so close is good enough.  If you want more perfection, then you can always use the stamp-a-ma-jig.

I embossed the background and used a dauber to give it that wonderful aged look.  The new Designer Ribbon Slides featured in the Holiday Mini Catalog are a fun little adornment to my fall card.

Stamps:  Gently Falling (123802 [W]; 123804 [C]), En Frances (109521), Teeny Tiny Wishes (115370 [W]; 127802 [C])

Wacky Wishes - PP113

A clean and simple banner project, a challenge hosted by the Paper Players, is the inspiration for today's card.  Banners are all the rage these days in all shapes and sizes.  Mine are petite, but the bright colors announce a big birthday celebration going on.

The finished little banners measure 1-1/2" from the front, but first I cut 2" x 3/4" strips, cut the "V" with a corner punch, ran them through the Polka Dot Embossing Folder, then scored them at 1-1/2" so I could fold the top over the Baker's Twine and glue it.  The cupcake is from the Itty Bitty Bits set and punched out with the circle from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack.  Dimensionals were used on the banner and the cupcake.

The bottom corners each have some decorative paper piercing to add a little detail.  The new Paper Piercing Pack Essentials is a great tool for this.

Stamps:  Wacky Wishes (126410[W];126412[C]), Itty Bitty Bits (117056[W]; 120060[C])
Ink:  Rich Razzleberry, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Marina Mist

Gingerbread Candy Wrapper

A fun way to give a little treat or a small gift for Christmas is to wrap it up in this sweet little Candy Wrapper.  I think it would also make some cute homemade tree ornaments made up in custom colors of your choice.

The new Holiday Mini Catalog offers some fun new shapes for cutting matching stamped images.  All it takes is a few cranks of the Big Shot and you end up with a perfectly cut out image.  Easy!  You can get the bundle which includes this stamp set & coordinating Framelits for $36.95 [W]; $32.95[C].

The "frosting" trim is cut from the Tasteful Trims XL Die.

I had been curious about this Candy Wrapper Die, looking longingly at it in the catalog and wondering if it would behave when I went to close the ends.  Enough wondering.  The trick is to fold all the score lines, adhere the long side and flatten, fold the triangular score lines on the ends, then when you twist and push in with thumb and 3 fingers grasping the end, it just works.  There are several utube videos out there that show how to do this.

I always use Sticky Strip to close a 3D item, so I won't have to worry about it popping open randomly.  That Sticky Strip lives up to its name!

Midnight Muse Papillon Potpourri

The delicate wings of this butterfly from the new set Papillon Potpourri are like stained glass.  I used a blender pen here to add the lighter color to fill in the wings, then punched them out with the amazing new Elegant Butterfly Punch and adhered both with a dimensional.
 

Don't you just love all of the embossing folders available from Stampin' Up?  The one used here is the Fancy Fan Folder.  It has a delicate pattern that compliments the graceful butterflies.

Elements Of Style - Mojo 247

I adore the little 3 x 3 love notes.  They are the perfect size to tuck in the ribbon on a wrapped present.  This week's Mojo Monday was "round or square", so I went with a love note.

The Night of Navy and Whisper White remind me of french toile.  I used Whisper White card stock cut out with the Scallop Rectangle Clearlits to stamp the roses, and the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch for the tiny scallops peeking out from behind the Sahara Sand embossed strip.  I sure do get a lot of milage out of that punch!

Hello Baby

I wanted to share a cute card I made for someone special.  I don't make a lot of baby cards, so I don't have a lot of baby stamp sets.  This little stamp is in the retired hostess set Slice Of Life from the 2011 Occasions Mini, but a perfect alternative would be the onesie in the Baby Bundle Set on p. 61 of the current Stampin' Up! Catalog.

The embossed hearts are a sweet touch and repeat the little hearts on the rompers.  Each romper was stamped on colored card stock, cut out by hand and attached with dimensionals.  I used the Big Shot to cut out the scalloped border.  The Stamp-a-ma-jig is the tool to use when you need to get the words on straight.

Build A Flower in Pool Party

The inspiration for this flower came from the Stampin' Success Magazine sent to all Stampin' Up  demonstrators.  Just another great perk!  This flower reminds me of a dahlia.  Although I made this into a Mother's Day card, this one would be fabulous for many other sentiments we might want to use.  So sorry I didn't get to posting this one before the big day, but that's just how it goes sometimes.

The petals are made from the Blossom Petals Builder Punch (121808), the center is stamped in Soft Suede using a flower center from the Mixed Bunch stamp set. (I am so happy this set is in the new catalog!)  Yes, I did cut this out by hand, but the 1" circle punch does work.  To assemble the flower, I punched a 1-3/8" circle and then built the bottom layer with 8 petals and another 8 for the top layer.  I used a little all purpose glue to make everything stay put.

Stamps:  Mixed Bunch (125535[W]; 125537[C]), Sentiment from Something To Celebrate (retired Hostess Set)
Ink:  Soft Suede, Pool Party
Paper:  Pool Party, Soft Suede, Whisper White, So Saffron DSP (this strip is from a retired package, but other DSP is available)
Accessories:  Soft Suede 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon (122967), Multipurpose Liquid Glue (110755), Dimensionals (104430)

This week's Mojo Monday has a fun sketch challenge to try.

I thought a trio of dancing teacups would be the perfect centerpiece for this card.

Each teacup was stamped separately (I used painter's tape to mask off the other cups) so that I got a better image than I would have using markers.  This also allows for a wider margin to center the 1-3/8" circle punch just so.

The Marina Mist strip has a torn edge and adds just a little color.  The 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon is one of my favorite ribbons.  It is easy to get a nice knot in this width and texture.

On a personal note, I lost my beautiful 10 year old Bernese Mountain Dog yesterday.  She was ravaged by an aggressive cancerous tumor that came on so quickly, I can hardly believe that just 3 months ago she acted perfectly normal.  She was so good with the children and so very sweet and gentle.  A wonderful dog and companion.  Goodbye my loyal friend.

My Bernese used to lay nearby as I sat at my desk making cards.  She liked to lay right where I would need to walk.  I was constantly stepping over her (a big step it was!) to get to my paper cutter.  I think she did it on purpose so that I wouldn't forget she was near.

Creating is good for the soul.  Create something of beauty.  Create Something Fun.

Vintage Creative Elements - PPA131

I created a vintage card using the sketch challenge at Pals Paper Arts.

You can see the layers of the dahlia below.  There are three layers, each separated by a dimensional.  The butterfly and word strip are also popped up with dimensionals. 

The background is stamped with Sahara Sand, the flower with Regal Rose, and the butterfly with Soft Suede.  I also used Soft Suede and a sponge dauber to get that distressed look on the edges after roughing them up with the edge of my Paper Snips.  I know there is a tool for that, but I prefer to use the sharp edge of my little scissors.

Up In The Air - PP86

Are you up for a color challenge?  This week at The Paper Players the challenge is to create a project using Wisteria Wonder, Crumb Cake, Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz.  Here's what I came up with...

The colors are reminiscent of Springtime, and the blooming branch and birdhouse stamp from Up In The Air - hostess set from the Occasions Mini, are the perfect partners for an Easter card.  The image is stamped with Early Espresso, then the birdhouse was stamped again in Wisteria Wonder and cut out and adhered over the Espresso one.   A blender pen is great for "water coloring" the leaves and blossoms.  I used the Pool Party frame cut from the Labels Collection Framelits die to show off the stamped image.  It sits up a bit with a dimensional under each corner.
