Party Puffins

I need to up my game when it comes to kid's cards now that I have four littles to make cards for!!  The Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper, which is a Sale-a-Bration item, will certainly help me do that!!

How did I get that little penguin you right ask?  Well, he is conveniently punched out of the designer series paper with the Penguin Builder Punch.  It does not get simpler than that!!  Layer a little more paper and you have an adorable card!!

I am not sure where yesterday went . . . my car needed to go into the shop and when I got home I was all out of my routine.  By the time I realized I had not made a post, it was after supper!!

We had a great time stamping this weekend.  I got several cards made and ideas for some upcoming classes, that I can't wait to share with you.  

Today is going to be a ketchup and mustard kind of day as I have many unfinished projects laying around that need to get done!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!

Artistically Inked

Funky Folds are always cool and this card that we made at a get-together a month ago is no exception.  

This was the card Lutta brought as her shoebox swap.  Once you have the measurements and get your cardstock scored, it is really an easy card to put together.  I  love trying new folds!!

Craft Show Project #3

Friends Are Like Seashells

I was able to get back to my craft show projects yesterday and finished up these seashell lip balms.  They went together pretty quickly once I was able to sit down and actually work on them!!

Tear and Tape was my best friend with this project.  I tried just using regular adhesive to hold them together, but the Tear and Tape worked the best!!

The hardest part of this whole project was finding the seashell lip balm at my local Dollar Trees.  I was only able to locate five of them, so I guess I will have to be happy with that!!  And believe me . . . .Luetta and I looked at a lot of Dollar Trees in the Iowa City and Cedar Rapids area!!

Stamps: Friends Are Like Seashells

Cardstock: Just Jade, So Saffron, Crumb Cake, Pale Papaya, Basic White

Designer Series Paper: Retired Paper

Ink: Just Jade, So Saffron, Early Espresso, Pale Papaya

Today I am on to Craft Show Project #4 and gather up what I need to take for my weekend of stamping in Iowa City tomorrow.  It is going to be too hot and muggy to do much else!  I am longing for the cooler days of fall that I know are just ahead.

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Beauty of Friendship

Today's card is one my friend, Luetta, brought to our demonstrator get-together a while back.

 

The combination of Pool Party and Evening Evergreen is just perfect for this woodsy card.  Even though you don't really see any snow on the card, it reminds me of a snowy scene.

This card is a fun fold card, opening from both sides. . . 

to reveal some beautiful trees on the inside.  I rarely stamp anything on the insides of my cards, but this is perfect!!

Pretty Pumpkins

This card comes directly from a site I follow . . . Flowerbug's Inkspot.  I believe it was made by someone else in LeeAnn's downline, but I absolutely loved it when I first saw it.  It was also a favorite of everyone stamping last night at Make-It-Monday.

How often do we think this about someone in our lives, but rarely tell them?  This card would be perfect!!  There is quite a bit of coloring on it, but it goes pretty quickly.  And with a change out of sentiment it could be used for several other occasions . . . birthday, thank you, thinking of you.

Texture & Frames

I love cards like this where you make your own background.  The Textures & Frames set reminds me of one that was popular a few years back . . . Gorgeous Grunge.  When I first saw it I hated it, but Hanna was stamping with me at that time and pointed out all of the things that you could do with that stamp set and it became one of my all-time favorites.

I rarely use my regular markers anymore with the advent of the Stampin' Blends.  They do come in handy though when you want to have different colors on the same stamp as I did here.  Just color the stamp with your markers and voila', you have a dual-colored sentiment!!

Clever Cats

Have you ever ordered a stamp set and then turned around and ordered the same stamp set again??  Such is the case with me and the Clever Cats stamp set.  I was telling my friend, Luetta, about doing that and she showed me this cute card that she had seen on a site she looks at, Stamp With Brian.

I decided that it would be a pretty good Make-It-Monday card!!  Super simple, but very cute!!  I rarely make a card without some type of embellishment, but this is one of them.

Stamps: Clever Cats

Cardstock: Cinnamon Cider, Basic Black, Basic White

Designer Series Paper: 2020-2022 In Color 6" X 6"

Yesterday was a very productive day, but I now have about 10 things that I have to finish up today.  First and foremost is getting cardstock cut and ready to go for tomorrow night's Make-it-Monday.  Anything else I happen to get done is just a bonus!!

In Your Words

There is nothing better in the stamping world than a FREE stamp set.  In Your Words is a great sentiment stamp set that you can earn with a qualifying order or party.

I have used another one of the Sale-a-Bration products on this card . . . the Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper.  For all of you black and white lovers out there this paper is perfect.  I decided this time to add a little color with the Blending Brushes and my Stampin' Blends.

Craft Show Project #2

Crafts Show Project #2 is complete!!  I have been gathering these small hand cream tubes this summer as my friend, Luetta, and I have been out and about shopping this summer.  Yesterday was the day to get them all packaged up!!

                                           

I tried to get a variety of colors and scents as I was gathering them.  I think I did a pretty decent job of that.  There are actually seven different scents.  I tried to match the packaging to the color of the tube.  I am hoping to find some Christmas-colored ones and maybe some that are black or white in color before I am done.

I am on to another packaging project today so be sure you stay tuned tomorrow.  And of course, listening or watching the Cubs this afternoon!!  

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Craft Show Project #1

Craft Show Project #1 is complete!!  The Mini Jam Jars that are in the Annual Idea Book and Catalog this year are super cute.  I found some bath salts on one of my shopping trips this summer and decided that they would look super cute in some decorated jars.

I wasn't totally sure how many jars I could fill with one big jar of salts, but it ended up being way more than I thought.  I started out trying to decorate the jars according to the scent, but soon gave up on that and just decided to decorate them however I wanted.

I did end up with seven different scents and about 30 filled jars.  I hope they end up being a good seller and I don't have a lot leftover at the end of the year!!

Today I am moving on to packaging for some small hand creams.  At the rate I am going I will have all of my crafts show items done by the first of the month.  The good news is that I will have them done, but the bad news is that will mean I think I need to come up with some new ideas and will scramble to make them.

Today is also going to be a zucchini bread baking day.  I really should get started on that while it is still relatively cool!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Ornate Thanks

I am sure I will hear from my non-Hawkeye friends, but I sure do love a black and yellow card!!  And what makes this one even better is that the designer series paper is a hostess item in the Annual Idea Book and Catalog!!

Sweet As A Peach

If you know me well, you know my answer when someone asks me how I am is "Peachy!"  This stamp set . . . Sweet As a Peach . . . is absolutely perfect and I love the sentiment . . . Have a Peachy Day!  When my friend, Luetta, showed me this card from another demonstrator, Brian King, I knew it was one I wanted to include in a Cards in the Mail Packet.

This layout is so simple, yet makes a pretty cool card.  I need to put it in my idea folder to try with some other designer series paper.  Perhaps with some Christmas paper or maybe even some snowflakes.  For right now though, I will just enjoy the warmer peachy weather!!

I always tell everyone that there are no mistakes in stamping only chances for embellishment . . . that is also the case with this card . . . the Holiday Rhinestones are covering up my dots of ink from when I stamped the sentiment.  If I hadn't told you, you would think they were supposed to be there . . . no mistakes . . . only chances for embellishment!!

Wow . . . thinking back eight years, today I would be trying to make the most of my summer vacation knowing I would be starting school tomorrow.  As my son-in-law said when I was reading to the kids last Friday . . . "You can take the teacher out of the classroom, but you can't take the teacher out of the person", because I really think I need to do something today as it is the last day before workdays start.  After a salon appointment when I am done posting this, I may head to Iowa City and just embrace the last day of summer vacation!!

Inspired Thoughts

I am certainly in love with all of the plant-like silhouette dies that Stampin' Up! seems to have this fall.  I know I probably do not need them all, but I certainly have them all.  This card, which I found on a site I look at, Stamper Camper, seemed to make the perfect sympathy card.

This is one of this week's Cards In the Mail card.  Even I will probably think I am crazy when I get done getting all of the pieces for this week's cards die cut.  There are certainly a lot of them!!  But I do think that they are all pretty cool.

Elegantly Said

I must be on an anniversary roll or something because today's card is also an anniversary one.  It is one that Kathy brought to our get-together a couple of weeks ago as a shoebox swap.

I think this is probably going to be one of this week's Cards in the Mail.  It would actually work for any occasion with a change out of sentiment.

Yesterday's visit with the kids was awesome.  I spent a good share of the day with kids crawling all over me and I loved it.

Of course, sharing Clifford  whether in Spanish or English, was a big hit.  I loved hearing Johan reading in Spanish.

Forever Fern

Once again, I used a card that I received as a swap for a Make-it-Monday night card.  This card was made by a fellow demonstrator, Betty, and shared at our get-together last weekend.  I did change it up just a bit, but not much.

 

Betty originally had a stamped piece of cardstock down the right-hand side, but I used a  piece the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper.  The colors were perfect and I wanted to show that this paper would work for many occasions . . . not just Christmas.

Stamps: Forever Fern, Peaceful Moments

Cardstock: Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen, Basic White

Designer Series Paper: Tidings of Christmas

Ink: Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen, Pear Pizzazz

Today is going to be an organizing kind of day.  I got some back-to-school pencil pouches very economically and am going to organize my undone Paper Pumpkin Kits in them rather than the orange boxes.  That way when I go somewhere they will be much easier to grab and pack!!  And they won't take up near as much room in my stamping room!!

Delicate Dahlias

There is nothing better than FREE stamps . . . well yes there is . . . FREE stamps that you REALLY like!!  Such is the case with the Delicate Dahlias stamp set that is one of the Fall Sale-a-Bration offerings.

My Stamp-a-ratus really came in handy when making this card.  I stamped the outline of the dahlia with Gorgeous Grape ink and then the inside of the dahlia with Highland Heather.  I then took a sponge dauber and daubed on a little Gorgeous Grape on the inside dahlia stamp to give it a little more dimension.  I thought it turned out great!!  And how can you go wrong with a purple and green card . . . one of my favorite combinations.

Stamps: Delicate Dahlias (Sale-a-Bration)

Penned Petals

I love love love black and white cards!!  That is why you will be seeing a lot of this Sale-a-Bration Paper, Beautifully Penned.  There are 12 awesome patterns of black and white in the FREE pack.  You will surely want some for yourself!!

The whole front of this card is embossed with the Tateful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.  It is much easier for me to cut a quarter of a sheet of cardstock and emboss that than it is for me to try and emboss just half of the card.  I also like the inside of my card to be smooth so it takes care of that issue as well!!

Everything is cut, stuffed into envelopes, gathered into baskets, and sitting by the back door waiting to be loaded into the car for Make-It-Monday tonight.  I am hoping to decide what to do with the remaining garage sale items (except stamps and dies) today and get that corner of my kitchen back to normal.

Shaded Summer

Fall colors and fall card making have to be among my favorite time of the year to make cards.  I know I probably say that about whatever season we happen to be in!!  This was the card swap that I took last week to our stamping get-together.   I love the fact that the stamp set now has dies that coordinate with it, and it is even better because they are free during Sale-a-Bration with a qualifying order.

There is definitely a lot of coloring on this card but it goes pretty quickly.  I think I colored the 20 flowers I needed for my swap in less than 15 minutes.

Just because I get tired of the same folds, I made this one a z-card fold.

Stamps: Shaded Summer

Cardstock: Mossy Meadow, Pale Papaya, Basic White

There is nothing to do today other than to figure out what cards I want to make Monday night at Make-It-Monday.  I have some of the cards figured out but am undecided on a couple of them.  And of course, I want to watch the Cubs on TV this afternoon, even if they did trade away all of my favorite players!!
