This Cascading Card is one of 3 projects we did at our last Stampers Club. We made our own designer paper with stamps and ink but it also looks lovely using Designer Series Paper (DSP). 

To create our own designer paper we used the new "In Colors" 2013-15 (which I love) on a Very Vanilla base.  Flower Shop Bundle (stamp set and punch) 130939 in wood was the stamp set used to create our paper.  I've always loved making my own designer paper because you can use any colours to match your project or event.  I used Lee Ann's tutorial  for the easy cutting instructions and there are some wonderful samples there also.

Just to let you know that my Stampers Clubs are beginning again next week so call/email me to join - you'll love it!

We had fun at the BOGO

At the end of June I hosted my yearly BOGO Event!  We had lots of fun making these two cards using the new "In Colors" (I have to say that I find it very hard to type Color without the "u" but since it is a trade mark it has to be U-Less) and new stamp sets.  I just love the new Catalogue and new In Colors!  I had lots of retired products for sale and everyone loved getting free Stampin' Up! stuff when they purchased the retired items!

The cards on the right were made using the Morning Meadow Hostess Stamp set with the new Pansy Punch 130698 (also available in a bundle with the Flower Shop Stamp Set pg. 95). Card base Tempting Turquoise and then a layer of Soft Sky stamped with the same ink, Whisper White top layer punched with our Circle punches, Melon Mambo ink to stamp the flower & the sentiment from another awesome Hostess Set - Banner Greetings.  We used Dimensionals to pop up the top layer to give depth.

For the second card we used the Designer Series Paper Stack "In Color" paper punched with our Square Punch and layered on Very Vanilla and then Baked Brown Sugar. We used Baked Brown Sugar Ink and the new stamp set Label Love which comes in a Bundle with the Artisan Label Punch pg. 32 and saves us 15%! We used the Fancy Fan embossing folder and stamped the sentiment (from yet another Hostess Set - Express Yourself - and punched it out with the same Artisan Label Punch.

It was great stamping with everyone and I hope to stamp with you soon.

Epic Stamp Day

Wow we had lots of fun at the Epic Stamp Day.  Stamping 20 different cards was awesome and the gals loved the cards and the cupcakes!!

This is a very simple card using two of the new In-Colours Strawberry Slush and Coastal Cabana with the fabulous new stamp set Flower Shop with the coordinating Pansy Punch (money saving bundles available pg. 95 #132736). The Sentiment is from a hostess set - I know!! - the hostess sets are really great - Simply Sketched.
