Just Goofin' Around With My Club Members

Club members made this fun card today.  Inspiration came from fellow demonstrator Candice Anderson.  Thanks, Candice!

Now, I know what you're thinking:  "What punches did you use for this?"  Well, here  you go ...

 

Click on either of the photos to see a larger view.

Colors are Basic Black, Whisper White, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pink Pirouette and Gumball Green.  (Note:  the Pink Pirouette is just used for one thing - the small pink pieces on the tip of the tongue.)  All the other "pinkish" looking pieces are Crisp Cantaloupe.

Fun, huh?!  Your turn!

Having Fun with Punches and SU!'s New Foil Sheets

How's this for a masculine card?  

Wouldn't this be perfect for the handy guy in your life?

The silver background was made using our new Foil Sheets (p. 29, Holiday catalog) and the Chevron embossing folder.  Great idea, huh?  I wish I could say it was mine!  I took a photo of a swap card at convention and this is my version.  I didn't look at the card to write down her name, but she's clever, isn't she?

Stamps:  None.  Colors:  Real Red, Basic Black, Basic Gray, Daffodil Delight.  Accessories:  Foil Sheets (Holiday catalog), Chevron embossing folder, Stripes embossing folder,       1" Circle punch, 1 1/4" Circle punch, Boho Blossoms punch, Word Window punch, Large Oval punch

Six Sided Sampler Thank-You Card

I made this card at an event held by my 5th upline, Connie, while we were in Salt Lake City.  She had three make & takes plus a nice gift for all of her team members who were there for Convention.  I love my Stampin' Up! family.  Thanks, Connie!

I don't know about you, but I just love the Strawberry Slush and Pistachio Pudding color combination with a touch of Smoky Slate.  So soft and pretty.

Stamps:  Six-Sided Sampler.  Colors:  Pistachio Pudding, Strawberry Slush, Smoky Slate.  Accessories:  Hexagon Punch, Big Shot, Honeycomb embossing folder, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch pack, Rhinestones Jewels, Small Oval punch.

What do you think of the color combination?  Do you have a favorite new In Color?

 

Black & White Masculine Birthday Card

I admit, masculine cards are a challenge for me.  This card is not at all what I set out to make, lol.  Does that ever happen to you?  

Stamps:  Bring on the Cake.  Colors:  Basic Black, Whisper White.  Accessories:  Big Shot, Chalk Talk Framelits, Hexagon Punch, Honeycomb embossing folder, Modern Medley Designer Series Paper, Basic Black 1/8" taffeta ribbon.

Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by!

 

Flower Shop in Curry & Strawberry

What a fun and simple card!  I saw a similar card on another demonstrator's blog and simply changed the colors and the sentiment.  I was in the mood for bright, summery colors.

Stamps:  Flower Shop (p. 94), Happy Day (p. 112).  Colors:  Crushed Curry, Strawberry Slush, Pear Pizzazz (leaves).  Accessories:  Pansy punch, Two-Step Bird punch (leaves). 

Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by!

More Mosaic

This card uses the Modern Mosaic embossing folder and matching Quatrefancy Designer Series Paper.  The whole mosaic theme is so much fun!

Colors:  Bermuda Bay, Whisper White.  Stamps:  Delightful Dozen.

Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by!

I wish I could take credit for this card ...

... but I can't.  This was made by my very talented customer, Debbie C.  Debbie's grandson loves to come over and watch the birds at grandma and grandpa's house, so Debbie made this card for him.  Isn't it awesome?!  

A big thanks to Debbie for letting me share her card!  I don't have the details on exactly how she made the feeder, but I am sure she'll share if requested.

Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by!

Pretty Butterfly Card Using New Catalog Products

One of my uplines in PA sent me this beautiful card.  How lucky am I?  Thanks, Connie!

Stamps:  Delightful Dozen.  Colors:  Strawberry Slush, Whisper White.  Accessories:  Big Shot, Modern Mosaic Embossing Folder, Quatrefancy Specialty Designer Series Paper, Elegant Butterfly Punch, Rhinestones.

Love that Modern Mosaic Embossing Folder!  I started working on a card using that folder (and the matching punch) last night. Hopefully I'll get it finished today and it will be my next post.

Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by!
