Zoo Review Giraffe Card

This was a card I received at the Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference and had set aside because I loved the Zoo Review stamp set and loved the card even more.  I wish I could remember who actually gave me the card so I could give her a shout-out.  We made this card at my stamp camp this past weekend and it was a big hit!  I love how it showcases two of the Stampin' Up! Textured Impressions Embossing Folders and lots of layering!

 

INSTRUCTIONS:

Fold a piece of 8-1/2” x 5-1/2” Very Vanilla (101650) card stock in half.

Emboss a piece of  5” x  3-3/4” More Mustard (100946) card stock with the Stripes (123128) Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  Adhere it to a piece of 5-1/4” x 4” Riding Hood Red (111348) card stock.  Adhere both pieces to the front of the card.

Stamp the giraffe from the Zoo Review (122197-wood, 122199-clear) stamp set on a piece of 2-1/4” x 3-3/4” Very Vanilla card stock in More Mustard (126964) Classic Ink.  Round the top right corner of the piece with the 3/16” Corner Punch (119871) and adhere it to a piece of Basic Black (121045) card stock which also has the top right corner rounded.  Set aside.

Emboss a piece of 2-1/4” x 3-3/4” Riding Hood Red card stock with the Perfect Polka Dots (117335) Impressions Embossing Folder.  Set aside.

On a scrap piece of Very Vanilla card stock, stamp “happy birthday” from the Teeny Tiny Wishes (115370-wood, 127802-clear) stamp set.  With the Curley Label Punch (119851), punch it out and adhere it so just the top shows on the embossed Riding Hood Red piece.  Angle both the Riding Hood Red embossed piece and the giraffe piece onto the front of the card.

Up, Up & Away

This cute card today was made by my friend and fellow Stampin' Up! demonstator, Sue D. from Mooresville, Indiana.  Her card was actually inspired by demonstrator Lynn W.  from Michigan.  Sue used the stamp set, Up, Up & Away (122755-wood, 122757-clear).   This set is so cute -- your family and friends will love receiving projects made with these happy hot air balloons!  Wouldn't it be great for party invitations, kids' scrapbook pages, or summer projects?  It is available in both wood- and clear-mount.  Thank you Sue, for sharing your card!

Lego Birthday Invitations

Today's "Show & Share" from my July Stampin' Up! Inky Images Team Meeting is one of the cutest ideas I've seen in a long time.  I guess because I have two young grandsons who are into Legos, I fell in love with this idea.  Joanne C.  shared the invitations she made for her son's upcoming birthday party.  These invitations are so simple but what Lego enthusiast wouldn't like to attend this party?  All you need are some bright card stock and a 3/4" Circle Punch (119873).

Joanne is actually in one of my best friend's downline, but because Nyla. K. lives in Texas now, I have adopted Joanne into my group.  While her upline still works with her long-distance, I wanted Joanne to have a local group to belong to so that she can get the hands-on training and fellowship from other demonstrators in the area.  I am so glad Joanne is part of our group because we all benefit from her ideas!

My Little Paper-crafter!

I am so lucky because I get to spend a lot of time with my 4-year old grand-daughter Emma.  She loves to "play" in my stamping studio while I'm working on the projects for my stamping classes and camps.  I keep a basket of left-over punched pieces from various projects and Emma loves making pictures with them.  I thought you might want to see Emma with her latest creation.   I think she is definitely a future Stampin' Up! demonstrator!

Frightening Feline

I am attending my Stampin' Up! upline's home for a demonstrator meeting on Tuesday evening ti kick off the Holiday Mini Catalog which will debut on August 1st for our customers.  This catalog is packed with so many cute stamp sets, paper, embellishments and Big Shot items.  We are getting together that evening to "play" with all the new items.  As part of the meeting, we are also swapping (which we all love to do), so I've been busy making my holiday swaps. 

I really am not much on Halloween cards but I decided to use the Frightfully Feline (128105-wood) stamp set because it is so cute.  This stamp set is from the Stampin' Up!  Holiday Mini.  I also used the new Adorning Accents Edgelits (125595) and Polka Dot Parade Designer Series Paper (126902) for the swaps.

Twitterpated Designer Post-It Note Holder

One of my favorite things about my Inky Images Team Meetings is our Show & Share  time and Tuesday's night meeting had exceptional items that my gals brought to share. This project was created by Stampin' Up! demonstrator Betty G.from Martinsville.  She decorated an acrylic frame with some card stock and a little Twitterpated Designer Series Paper (125406)and then added some stamped images, buttons  and other Stampin' Up! embellishments to the frame.  Then she topped it off with a pad of Post-It Notes.  What a pretty addition to your desk and a great way to keep track of your Post-It Notes (who hasn't had them disappear from their desk, lol!).

Betsy's Blossoms Card

My featured stamper is also a fellow demonstrator and I wanted to share a beautiful card she made for her demo card swaps.  Amy B.  has been a demonstrator in the Greenwood area for about 10 years and is a member of my side-line. 

 

For this swap Amy used the Betsy's Blossoms (126004-wood, 126006-clear) stamp set.  She also used the Scallop Circle Bigz Die (113468) in the background of her bird and leaf.  This stamp set is so versatile -- I think you are going to be seeing lots of cards made with it!  This six-piece set coordinates with the Floral District product suite.
