Using a Designer Builder Brad "differently"

I love love love this card! If you can't tell I always love the blue cards the best...I think blue really is my favorite color! Especially when it is combined with white and yes, Crumb Cake :)

This card has LOTS of layers which is another thing I just love on a card! Where to start?!?!

The base of the card is Crumb Cake card stock (120953) and sponged with Crumb Cake Classic Ink (126975) using a Stamping Sponge (101610). The right side of the card is embossed with the Needlepoint Border Embossing Folder (129383) using the Big Shot (113439).

I used our Delicate Details Lace Tape (130966) to make the Ombre look on the left side of the card. You can see how to create this look at my previous post with a video by clicking HERE to see the other card and watch the video!

I love using our Tea Lace Paper Doilies (129399) as a layer especially when you fold it in half to make it look fuller! The double banner under the circle is made using our Creped Filter Paper (129393) which I am happy to say is sticking around so I can play with it even more!!

The "Thanks So Much" and flowers are from the Oh, Hello stamp set (130733) and embossed using our Heat Tool (129053), VersaMark (102283) and White Stampin' Embossing Powder (109132) and punched out with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch (120906).

You will see I used our Designer Builder Brad (129329) a little differently on this card. REMEMBER, these brads will be no longer available after May 31st! So be sure to order yours by clicking HERE no later than May 31st! That's TODAY!!!!

I used the Designer Builder Brad without the epoxy bubble for this card. In the center of the brad I placed a circle using Pool Party card stock (122924) and the circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309) and adhered it with a Mini Glue Dot (103683). I took Linen Thread (104199) and thread it through the small Vintage Faceted Designer Button (127555) and tied a bow. Then used another mini glue dot to adhere the buton to the brad.

Like I said, I love to layer and not just with paper but embellishments too!

Just one last reminder! Items from our Spring Catalog are only available through TODAY!! So be sure to click HERE to view the ALL the items of our wonderful Spring Catalog and order your favorite TODAY! I'd hate for you to miss out on the favorites!

How to make a Origami Tie for Father's Day Card

I am not really good at origami things but this tie I came across was one I could do after trying it a couple of times! Try it with just regular paper first before using all your wonderful Designer Series Paper up practicing!

The Parker's Patterns Designer Series Paper (131021) is a GREAT paper for masculine projects especially with Father's Day around the corner. This paper is located in the Spring Catalog and ONLY AVAILABLE THRU MAY 31st! Which is this Friday! So be sure to click HERE to get this great paper TODAY!!!

I used the Woodgrain Background Stamp (117100) to get the woodgrain image on the retiring Not Quite Navy card stock using the Not Quite Navy Classic Ink (126971). The Not Quite Navy "everything" will also no longer be available after June 3rd so be sure to go HERE at my online store to stock up now! The Not Quite Navy card stock is sold out but you can still get a few sheets of it by ordering the Regals Card Stock Collection (119705).

The base of the card and the 1 3/4" Circle Punch (119850) is Cherry Cobbler card stock (119685) which is a favorite of mine. The Father's Day greeting is from the Delightful Dozen Stamp Set (122650), stamped on Crumb Cake card stock (120953) using Early Espresso Ink (126974) and punched out using the Decorative Label Punch (120907). Then topped off with a Naturals Designer Button (127554).

The Delightful Dozen Stamp Set (126974) is a great stamp set for many different occasions. Here are the images of the stamp set:

ORDER ANY OF THE ABOVE ITEMS HERE AT MY ONLINE STORE

I want to share a video with you of how to make this origami tie. I also give you the website in the video of where I found the instructions on how to make it! It isn't too hard and it looks great on a card! Have fun!

Bombs Away! with Photopolymer Stamp Set

I really enjoy using our trendy photopolymer sets. This card is another card I made with the Bombs Away Photopolymer set (133411) which we also made during our Diva Day last weekend!

The base of the card is Summer Starfruit card stock (126839) which is a 2012-2014 In Color and one of my favorite shades of yellow! The designer series paper is from our new catalog debuting on Friday and called Soho Subway Designer Series Paper (130140) and has a nice grungy look which I LOVE!!! It has a piece of Epic Day This and That Designer Washi Tape (131269) along the side...just lovin' this Washi Tape!!!

I stamped the bomb from the Bombs Away Birthday set (133411) in Early Espresso Classic Ink (126974) and punched out the top half of the bomb using the 1 3/4" Circle Punch (119850). I then stamped the bomb again in Early Espresso ink and punched out the circle part of the bomb using the 1" Circle Punch (119868) and used Stampin' Dimensionals (104430) to pop it up over the half of the other stamped bomb image. Just gives the card and image a little different look.

The greeting is stamped with Island Indigo Classic Ink (126986) onto the Very Vanilla card stock (101650) banner. Underneath the banner is a piece of Natural 7/16" Trim Ribbon (129287) which I tugged at the end just a little to give it the frayed look...LOVE it!!!

I'd love for you to stop over to my online store by clicking HERE and order any of the items to make this card! You won't be disappointed!

Love the look and simplicity of this card! It uses some of my favorite colors and makes me happy :)

It's a short week, so I hope you have a great Tuesday to start it off!

Tea Lace Doily Stencil Tutorial - Stampin' Up!

This is one of my all time favorite cards! I call this card my one card wonder...have you ever made one of those? A card where you keep adding and adding and knowing this will be the only one you ever make like it?!? Well, I actually did have some special team members who made the title DIVA this past quarter make this card this weekend during their Diva Stamping Time with me!

So I took a 3 3/4 x 5" piece of Watercolor Paper (122959) and tacked down the half of Tea Lace Doily (129399) to the watercolor paper using Snail Adhesive (104332). I then took one of our Stampin Spritzers (126185) and filled it about 3/4 full using Rubbing Alcohol and then added about 5-10 drops of Pool Party Classic Stampin Ink Refill (122933) and gave it a good shake. And spritzed away! I just love the look it gives and you can see more on the video below.

The "Oh, Hello" is from the Oh, Hello stamp set (130733) and stamped on to Very Vanilla card stock (101650) using Soft Suede Classic Ink (115663) and cut out using on of the Apothecary Accents Framelits (127003). It is also lightly stamped with Delicate Doilies stamp set (122592) using Crumb Cake Classic Ink (126975).

The First Edition Designer Series Paper is retired and already sold out but you could easily use an old book and make a banner using it. I used three Vintage Faceted Buttons (127555), the larger button is tied with Linen Thread (104199) and then two smaller buttons. One has a Pearl Basic Jewel (119247) in the center and the other has a Rhinestone Basic Jewel (119246) in the center. I really love this look, it adds SO much to this vintage card.

Check out the video on this card for all details:

I hope you LOVE this card as much as I do! I love when my creativity strikes like this and creates such a beautiful piece of art! I think I may frame it...LOL!

Any of the items to make this card can be ordered at my online store by clicking HERE and earn some fabulous Lakeshore Loyalty Rewards and also a thank you card in the mail from me to you for ordering with me!

Mid-Monthspiration for May with Stampin' Celebration!

I love sketches and I am happy to say I was starting on a card with a similar sketch to this one when I realized it was the 14th and I need to complete the card to get it in on time for the 15th!! Whew...just in time! I will say, I am more creative and work better under pressure but I feel very stress, so it's a win/lose situation for me! I had a creative day today so let's share with you what I did!

This was the sketch I needed to work with. Although I changed the shapes a little I really like the outcome!

And here is the card I came up with...

I used a little old (retiring) product along with a little new product to create this card!

The numbered designer series paper in the back is from the NEW Soho Subway Designer Series Paper which will be out on May 31st!! I know, I can't wait for the new catalog either! I still have a class in May and it's killing me to not use new stuff. But in time I will be able too!

The Tea Lace Doilies (129399) are sticking around in the new catalog which I am super duper excited about! I think these can make any card look vintage and my style of card!!!

The greeting is from the Daring Adventure (122602) stamp set and is retiring so get it while you can at my online store HERE! It is punched out with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch (120906) and stamped with Early Espresso Classic Ink (126974).

Our Neutrals Designer Buttons (119743) have been around for a couple of years and will be leaving us this year. The new ones have a different style which I know you will love but be sure to stock up on these cute buttons before they are gone HERE at my online store!

Be sure to stop by and check out what the other Design Team gals have for you! You have until the 25th of the month to share your projects with us at Stampin' Celebration. We'd love to see what you've come up with!

Framelit Trick Tutorial using Stampin' Up!'s Apothecary Accent

I love finding new ways to use product than the ordinary way. On this card I used the Apothecary Accent Framelit Die a little differently and you can see how I did it on the video below.

This card also uses the greeting from the Welcome Kit from My Paper Pumpkin. You can sign up for My Paper Pumpkin with me HERE. Each month you will receive an alternate idea using that month's kit from me in the mail. You will love to see how you can see other ways to use the stamp set in the kit. The greeting is punched out using the Extra-Large Oval Punch (119859).

On this card I also used the fabulous Amazing Family stamp set (129192) with the coordinating Amazing Accent Standard Wheel (130106) using Crumb Cake Classic Stampin Ink (126975).

I can't get enough of Island Indigo card stock (122923) and Lucky Limeade card stock (122926). The Lucky Limeade is retiring so if you love it as much as I do be sure to get it at my ONLINE STORE.

The clock embellishment hanging from the card is from the Tea Time Trinkets collection (129326). It also comes with four other different images as well.

Here is a close up of the framelit tag...

Here is the video to show you the trick on the framelit die:

How cool is that! I can't wait to play with more of the framelits to see what I can come up with!

Don't forget we have our retired lists with lots of great products and some with a huge discount from now until May 30th and only while they last. You can view the lists below and order any of these products at my online store HERE.

"My Journal" with NO stamping!!! Holy Cow!

You read it write! I made a project today using our Stampin' Up! products but not a bit of stamping!! Let me share...

I made myself a journal using our "Try It" kit from our My Paper Pumpkin monthly subscription. You get two of these brown journals in the trial kit along with other items to decorate your journal really cute! I decided to take one of my journals and decorate it differently than what the kit provides. I needed a little creative mojo and this little journal helped. You can just purchase the Try It Paper Pumpkin kit separately at anytime HERE to see what it is all about with no subscription.

I am using this journal to write down all the great quotes about life I find or hear. I am just starting it and I thought using the This and That product line to help decorate the journal would be great. The stickers are washi tape along the binding is from the This and That product line.

So you'll see there really is NO stamping! Here is what the pages inside look like and some quotes I started to write down.

I also used a little sneak peek item on my journal...can you find it?

So did you find it?!?! Yes, it is that cute little Designer Very Vintage Button which will be available starting on May 31st when our new Annual Catalog goes live for you to order from. As a demonstrator we are able to purchase a few items from the new catalog a month early to try them out.

I hope you try out one of these products! They are two of my favorite and I just can't get enough of them. In case you missed it, here are the places you can purchase the above items from!

Trial Kit - My Paper Pumpkin

This and That Product Line

Don't forget you will earn Lakeshore Loyalty Rewards when you place an online order with me HERE and you will also receive a new Annual Catalog FREE in the mail to you as well! You won't want to miss getting a catalog...it's amazing!

Mother's Day Card with Amazing Family

I was excited to see the Amazing Family stamp set (129192) in the Stampin' Up! Spring Catalog. I really loved the vintage feel of it and that it coordinated with an amazing standard wheel, Amazing Accent (130106).

I really like using the half circle image with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch (120906). I actually punch the circle out first and then I carefully stamp the half circle image on to the circle. Since it is a clear stamp it doesn't line up too bad. I layered it on top of one of my favorite new items, Tea Lace Paper Doily (129399).

I stamped the greeting on to the banner in Jet Black Stazon (101406) first and then stamped the greeting again on Whisper White card stock (100730) using the Baja Breeze Classic Stampin Pad (126960) and just cut out the "Amazing" and adhered it to the banner. Under the banner is Summer Starfruit card stock (126839) punched out with the Decorative Label Punch (120907).

The "Mom" stamp is from the Family Reunion stamp set (122710), which will be retiring on May 30th and it has become a great go to stamp set so get it HERE at my online store while you can...you won't regret it! It is punched out using the new Petite Curly Label Punch (129405). The button is from the Bitty Buttons (118761) which coordinate with the Itty Bitty Punch Pack (118309), which there is a piece of Summer Starfruit under that button using the punch pack. Then tied off with a bow using Linen Thread (104199).

Of course everything is sponged with the Crumb Cake Stampin Pad (126975) and a Stamping Sponge (101610).

Stampin' Up!'s Card Base Pop 'n Cuts Die Card

I've been wanting to use this die to make a decorative card base for a while and finally last week I did when I made this card for our Team Gathering.

This Card Base Pop 'n Cuts Die (130099) creates this beautiful edging on the card when you use it. I did use the Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack (126187) and Stampin' Pierce Mat (126199) to create the paper piercing holes along the edge. I ran the Epic Day This and That Designer Series Paper (130814) through the die seperately and then layered it on top and then paper pierced.

This fun little tag starts with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch (120906) in Basic Gray card stock (121044) and paper pierced also using the Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack. The chevron image from on the Decorative Label Punch (120907) is from the Oh, Hello stamp set (130733) and stamped in Calypso Coral ink (126983) on Calypso Coral card stock (122925).

The 7/16" Natural Trim Ribbon (129287) from the Spring Catalog is frayed at the ends and folded in half and placed behind the Decorative Label. I used a Stamping Sponge (101610) and Crumb Cake ink (126975) to color the piece of Canvas Creations (129375) and punched it out with the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch (127811). The "wish big" greeting is from the Pennant Parade stamp set (122742) and stamped with Basic Gray ink (126981) on Basic Gray card stock (121044) and punched out with the 1" Circle Punch (119868). I added the Thought Bubble from the Hung Up Cute Clips (129389).

On the top right of the card, I stamped the chevron image from the Oh, Hello stamp set (130733) in our Illuminate Glimmer Watermark Pad (126857) to give it just a little something extra but not too much. This Illuminate ink works great on Whisper White card stock (100730).

Here is a video showing you a little more about the Card Base Pop 'n Cuts Die and the card itself...

Thanks for stopping by to learn more about this great die! I hope to use it on more cards that I create. It really is fun and I can see many more possibilities with it!

Stampin' Up!'s Up, Up & Away is Retiring!

I seriously have not used this Up, Up & Away stamp set (122757) as much as I would have liked and now it is retiring on May 30th. I will someday ride on a hot air balloon, I think they are just beautiful and romantic!

This card would work great for a graduate as it is right now for colleges and right around the corner for high schools.

The designer series paper along the right side is World Spectacular Designer Series Paper (126897) and looks great with the hot air balloons. It too is retiring so get it while you can HERE at my online store.

The square Very Vanilla card stock (101650) is 3 5/8 x 3 3/8" and then embossed with the Cloudy Day Textured Embossing Folder (127022). I then used the 3" Circle Orginals Die (122125) to cut the cirlce in the center.

The balloons are stamped with Calypso Coral ink (126983) and Island Indigo ink (126986). The Calypso Coral is stamped directly on to the paper and the Island Indigo balloon is stamped and then cut out and popped up with Stampin Dimensionals (104430). The greeting is punched out with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch (119861).

I used the small size button from the Silver Basics Designer Buttons (129325) and placed a Calypso Coral brad from the 3/8" Designer Printed Brads (122940) which are retiring too and are on sale for 25% off HERE but ONLY while supplies last!!! I cut off the ends of the Calypso Coral brad with our trusty Craft & Rubbers Scissors (103179) with ease and then adhered it to the center of the button with a few Mini Glue Dots (103683). The Linen Thread (104199) is tied around the square a few times and then a knot is under the button. I left a the ends long so they hung under the button.

**Our retiring stamp set list and accessories lists are out and a few accessories are always sold out but you can still save 25-60% OFF many of the items on the list!

Here is the Retiring Stamp Set List
