Let it Snow

I pulled out the Snowman Season stamp set and had fun making a bunch of cards.  I also used the coordinating Snowman Builder Punch, Let it Snow Designer Series Paper, and Let it Snow embellishment kit.  I posted 7 cards on my business Facebook Page - and asked for people to choose their favorite.  Today I will show you the two that got the most  votes (at the time I wrote this post.)

The snowmen in the card above are actually just a piece of the Designer Series Paper that I matted on a piece of Real Red card stock.  I added the cute hat and scarf from the embellishment kit - they are made from real felt.  The kit includes 60 felt shapes in different coordinating colors.

The snowflakes are cut from Whisper White card stock using the Christmas Layers Dies.  This set of dies is bundled with the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set, which is the set I used to add the greeting on this card.





 I saw a card like this on Pinterest, but I used a different piece of Designer Series Paper and Real Red card stock for the scalloped oval.  I wasn't sure if I liked the red snowflakes - so I will see if any of my customers change that when we make this card at my card class this weekend.  I encourage my customers to make the card the way they like it - and not necessarily the way I made it!

I posted 7 cards on my business Facebook page this morning.  CLICK HERE to take a look at the other cards - and to vote for YOUR favorite!

Sailing Home

This is a card that I made using the Sailing Home stamp set.  It is a "fancy fold" card.  You can see how the card opens in the photos below:
When I made this card it was graduation season - and I thought it would make a great graduation card.  Or even a retirement card - or any event where someone is taking their life in a new direction.  This card is easier to make than you might think - especially if I cut all the pieces for you!

Below is a set of cards I made using the same stamp set.
These cards feature the 2019-2021 In Color Collection and the Sailing Home stamp set from Stampin' Up!  Each card has an area that was sponged using the ink, and ribbon was added to each card in the coordinating color.  The best thing about Stampin' Up! products is the way the colors match PERFECTLY.  No more searching for the correct shade of card stock, ink, or accessories.

I designed this set of cards to be a beginner's class.  So if you would like to have a fun afternoon or evening with your friends, just CONTACT ME and we will set a date to gather your friends for some creative FUN.

August Club Projects 2 & 3


We made these cards at my August stamp club classes.  Everyone made a total of 6 projects - two projects using three different stamp sets.  The cards above were made using the Sailing Home stamp set.  This is one of my favorite sets from the 2019-20 Annual Catalog.

The card on the left is a note card.  All of the images were stamped using Crumb Cake ink.  I added a strip of Soft Suede card stock to add a little interest.  The words "Happy Birthday" were stamped using Soft Suede ink. The best thing about Stampin' Up! products is everything matches - so the projects always look great!

The card on the right is a full size card and showcased two patterns of the Sailing Away Designer Series paper.  

Check back next week to see more cards that I made using this stamp set.  I couldn't stop playing with it!  If you would like to make these cards - CONTACT ME about arranging a private class.
