Monday Montage 142 & Global Design Challenge - GDP196

July 1, 2019

Hello friends. Welcome, welcome. I’m hitting a twofer this week, combining my work for Global Design Project and Monday Montage. Sometimes you’ve got to be a little efficient.

Monday Montage: So … what Stampin’ Up! project I working on right now? You guessed it. Today I was wrapping up my card for the upcoming GDP challenge.

Card making is so rewarding for me. I love to push myself and try new layouts and ideas. CASEing projects is such a good way to try out new things. That said the Global Design Project has a CASE the designer challenge. We are CASEing a project by my dear Artisan friend Connie Collins. Connie has an amazing style that is always full of rich colors and details. I choose to focus on her colors and layout as inspiration for my project.

My card features a new host stamp set called New Wonders. I love the little fairy images. I stamped the image on the gingham paper and then I stamp the image again on white and hand cut to place over the gingham. It created a fun effect and I like the little bit of extra depth it adds. The gingham papers are part of the new 6x6 paper packs. You can get a gingham pattern in every color Stampin’ Up! offers. This blue is Seaside Spray. What do you think? I really like how this card turned out and it’s quite different for me.

Are you ready to see more inspiration and to play along with us? I can’t wait to see what you come up with for this Global Design Project Challenge. Be sure to tag your project #gdp196

Above the Clouds Graduation card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Balloons - Global Design Challenge - GDP195

June 24, 2019

Balloons … thought balloons, hot air balloons and party balloons. Balloon is the theme for this week’s Global Design Project. I took the hot air balloon approach and used the stamp set ‘Above the Clouds’ to create this card.

I had a lot of fun stamping banners for the background. STAMP, stamp, stamp! This card really got a work out.

Capture the Good Camera Card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

TGIF Challenges: Ruffles - TGIFC217 - Capture The Good

June 20, 2019

Ribbon ruffles, what a fun theme challenge. We are playing around with ruffles this week over at TGIF Challenges.

My card today uses an awesome new stamp set called Capture the Good. The set includes a LARGE camera image. I collect cameras and camera stamps so this stamp set was top of my list to order from the new catalog. I will use it a TON!

Ruffles: I decided to make my own paper ruffle ribbons using the 2019-2021 InColor 6x6 Papers and Vellum. This is easy to do. Randomly fold the paper to create a ruffle. Stitch or glue to keep the ruffles in place. I roughed these ruffles up a little as I didn't want them to look too perfect.

The camera is colored using a new color additions to the Stampin’ Blends product line. See a full supply list below. There are many new colors that have been added to the Stampin’ Blends.

Did you notice? This card has a fun interactive element. The ‘Smile’ greeting is on a pull tab that slides easily in and out from behind the camera. Super fun!

Alright, ready to see more ruffle inspiration? Details on how to participate are on the TGIF challenges blog. Check it out! Thanks so much for stopping by, have a GREAT weekend!

Arts & Crafts Button Button card- Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Button, Button - Global Design Sketch Challenge - GDP194

June 17, 2019

Hi friends! Welcome back to another Global Design Project challenge. #gdp194 This week we have a great sketch for you to use as a jumping off point.

My card for this challenge features the die cut button images from the Arts & Crafts Dies and the Button, Button embossing folder. I loved lining up the three buttons in these sweet colors. The buttons embossed in the background are also so sweet. I’ve been wanting to break out these products for a while. This card is perfect for the seamstress or sewing enthusiast.

The Happy Day greeting comes from the Itty Bitty Greeting stamp set.

You’re a star! I inked up the Sunrays Embossing folder and pressed that ink into the white cardstock, letterpress style. This simple shaker card created with the ‘Shining Stars’ dies. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #shakercard #cardmakingreels

Time to celebrate a big milestone with @tgifchallenges - We did it! 600 inspiration challenges, every Friday a new challenge, over 11 years! Wow.

Some folks try to avoid the frustration of tangled Christmas lights… I say bring it! This card is a tangle of stamps. Over 50 little stamp impressions help turn a blank piece of paper into this! A mess. Haha. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakingreels #adventlabelstampset

Mini but mIghty! I created this entire backgorund with one tiny stamp. This mini holiday light bulb turned into a cluster of tangled lights with a LOT of stamping. Card created for @stampinfancyfriday October mini but mighty challenge. The little light bulb comes from the 'ADVENT LABELS BUNDLE'. Colors are Poppy Parade, Crisp Cantaloupe, and Soft Sea Foam. #stampinup #cardmaker #adventlabelstampset #christmascard #cardmaking
