Paper Ornament Rose

 

I saw this beautiful paper rose by Becky J. and just had to try it.  It is made with the Stampin' Up! Ornamment Punch from last season's Holiday mini catalog.  The only thing I did to change it out a little was to use the Leaves #2 Sizzix Die for the leaves on my flower. 

 

 

Wouldn't it be pretty on a present or gift bag, or perhaps on the front of a scrapbook album?  We will be making these roses in my April scrapbook class for my 3-D project.  The great thing is that you can still order the Ornament Punch, item #116794, for the preferred price of $15.95 by visiting my website at http://karenhaden.stampinup.net and clicking on the SHOP NOW button. 

If you would llike to learn how to make these beautiful paper roses, be sure to sign up for my April Scrapbook/3-D stamp camp by contacting me at stamping@karenhaden.com 

Tuesday Tutorial: Clear Mount Stamp Sets

I can't say enough wonderful things about the new Stampin' Up! clear mount blocks and stamp sets.  I am sooooo excited that we can now offer them to our customers.  I love that they don't take up much room for storage and I like that I can actually see to stamp my images straight without using my Stamp-a-ma-jig! 

I thought that today I would include a video on how to use these new stamp sets.

 

If you would like to purchase any of our new clear-mount stamps or our wood mount stamps sets, visit my ON-LINE Store  at http://karenhaden.stampinup.net or contact me at stamping@karenhaden.com.

 

Garden from the Heart Birthday Card

My older sister will soon be celebrating a monumental birthday and I know she's probably a little sad.  So, I thought I'd make her a pretty card to cheer her up.  I decided it best to leave off any 'numbers' on this card, lol!

For her card I used the new 'Garden from the Heart' stamp set from the Occasions mini catalog. 

And the winner is.....

Congratulations to Jennifer S. who is my latest 35/35 winner!  Jennifer won the $35 Stampin' Up! gift certificate and can now get some of those items on her wish list!  Jennifer, please email me your order and I'll get your goodies mailed out to you!

Upsy Daisy

 I have some very talented demonstrators in my downline of Inky Images and I wanted to share one of their cards with you today.  Debbie N. was my first downline and she has been a demonstrator since October of 2005.  She inspires me with her beautiful cards and I thought I'd post one she recently created.  She used the Upsy Daisy stamp set, item #111710,  which you can find in the 2009-10 Idea Book & Catalog, and the sentimentWell Scripted, also from the Occasions Mini.  She also used the new red satin ribbon from the Occasions Mini to make this beautiful Mother's Day card.  What mother wouldn't love getting this lovely creation!

This stamp set, with its variety of greetings and classic daisy silhouette image, is an excellent gift for the daisy connoisseur. It’s versatile enough to create multiple adorable cards and lends itself beautifully to all kinds of decorative possibilities.  This 4-piece set can be yours for the preferred price of $18.95 by contacting me at stamping@karenhaden.com or ordering it through my online store at http://karenhaden.stampinup.net

Sock Monkey Card

I've had the Sock Monkey stamp set, item 11155 for awhile and really hadn't done anything with him, so I thought this weekend I'd play around with it.  Here's a Sock Monkey card that I cased from Dawn O.  The smaller card was in a card magazine that I had been meaning to try for over a year!  Wouldn't the larger card be cute for a birthday card and the smaller for the gift tag?  The Sock Monkey set is die cut and includes Two-Step Stampin' images for creative memories.

Contact me at stamping@karenhaden.com to order your Sock Monkey stamp set at the preferred pricing of $26.95.   With 10 pieces in this set, that makes it only $2.69 for each stamp!
