This is my card making blog. I get bursts of creativity, and I enjoy sharing my ideas.
*DISCLAIMER* The title of my blog is merely a short form of my name, not a statement of my stampin' prowess.
I went to a wedding shower last night, but had no cards that were suitable for one. So yesterday afternoon, I hunkered down and made this:
Stamp Sets: Eight Great Sayings, Heartfelt Thanks Card Stock: Whisper White, Basic Black Ink: Basic Black Extras: Oval punch, Oval Scallop punch, dryer sheet, white ribbon
When you work with a dryer sheet, you should use one that has already gone through the dryer. They are more pliable, and your hands won't get all smeared with the scent - gets kind of gross. I stamped the small flower from Heartfelt Thanks onto the dryer sheet. I had to use tape to adhere it to the paper because the snail would not. I used white ribbon to tie it together in the middle, and used tape to attach the punched card stock in the middle over the ribbon knot.
It's been so long since I've posted anything! I was gone for a week, and I just have gotten back in the swing of things. So here's a card that I made today for Jeff's clients. Very quick, very simple.
Stamp Set: Inspired by Nature Card Stock: Whisper White, Basic Black Ink: VersaMark Extras: White Heat Embossing Powder
I love my brayer! I love the cards you can make with them! It took me a few tries to make the colours blend well without the hard lines, and I know I have further to go, but I like the cards I've made with it so far:
Stamp Set: Inspired by Nature Card Stock: Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, Whisper White Ink: Basic Black, So Saffron, More Mustard, Pumpkin Pie Technique: Brayer
Hello! It's been a while since I've been able to take the time to stamp, and I wish that I had made the time earlier. I love the new stuff I got. Here is a card I made with 'Inspired by Nature' and a Scallop Oval punch:
Stamp Sets: Inspired by Nature Card Stock: Always Artichoke, Mellow Moss, Whisper White Ink: Always Artichoke, Mellow Moss Accents: Large Oval punch, Scallop Oval punch, Whisper White Organza Ribbon
I am a 27 year old wife and mother. My husband's name is Jeff, and my son's name is Alexander. My next baby is due on December 25, 2010!! I love to make cards with Stampin' Up! products, and I love getting ideas and implementing them to make a project of my own. When I'm not stampin', I enjoy to read, cross-stitch, and watch movies.
Welcome to SMART stampin'! I have been creating cards with Stamin' Up! products for almost two years, and I love it! I can't get enough ideas (and I certainly don't have enough products!)! I love being able to create cards and teach others how to make them as well. I get together with my sister once every other week, and we always have a few cards to make. I am not a demonstrator, but am thinking about becoming one sometime in the future.
I am a 27 year old stay-at-home mom of a one year old boy, with another one on the way, and I have a fabulous husband who understands and endorses my hobby. Jeff is a waterproofing salesman in the greater Hamilton area, and all the clients who purchase his system receive a homemade card from me.
