Teacher Appreciation gift idea - Using Springtime Impressions butterfly die

May 17, 2018

Last week was Teacher appreciation week. Currently I sit on the PTF board and we honored the teachers in various ways however I wanted to do something special just for Nic's 2nd grade teacher. She is a rock star. I had these pencils made from Bossie Jossie and was so excited when they arrived. I showed them to Nic and he was less impressed. As he stated, every kid in class already has a pencil, mom ... and no one needs to borrow one.  Ha, well at least they are cute and it's the thought that counts.

It didn't take much to decorate this jar and make a great impression. Simply add pencils, a hand stamped tag and a die-cut butterfly and voila!  I am in LOVE with this new butterfly die from the Springtime Impressions thinlets. It's fantastic. I've had it for a week and has already become well used. Supplies for this project are listed below. These products can be ordered starting June 1.

Sea of Textures - Global Design Project Sketch Challenge #GDP138

May 14, 2018
GDP138.jpg

Hello friends. Welcome! The Global Design Project has a sketch challenge for you to participate in this week. It's a great sketch with many ways to interpret the design. I chose to feature and sneak peek a few new products coming soon from Stampin' Up! (June 1st). The stamp set is called Sea of Textures and included this awesome Octopus and many sea themed texture backgrounds. The coordinating framelits are called Under the Sea and include dies to cut out the Octopus as well as the awesome netting that's also shown on the card. The Designer Series Papers are called Tranquil Textures. This suite of products has a really cool look and is super easy to use.

Notice how the Octopus is multi-colored? I used two inks, (Blueberry Bushel and Berry Burst) and the Stamp-A-Ratus to create this multi-colored effect on the Octopus. To recreate this look stamp the Octopus in Blueberry Bushel ink first. Then re ink the Octopus image around the edges only using Berry Burst and stamp again. Repeat as often as you'd like to get the desired effect. The Stamp-A-Ratus makes it super easy to ink as many times as you need. Note - I went back in with a blender pen to color the whites of the squid legs and make them appear a softer pink and blue.

Check out what the GDP designers have created with this sketch and play along with us. Tag your projects #GDP138. Thanks for visiting and happy stamping!

Springtime Impressions - TGIFC159 Sketch Challenge

May 11, 2018
TGIFC159.jpg

Welcome back friends. Happy Friday and that means it is time for another TGIF Challenge!  We have an unique sketch to play along with.  I just received some of the new catalog products on preorder and I couldn't wait to open them up and play. This card follows the sketch to the letter, however instead of a flower I used the butterfly die from the new Springtime Impressions thinlets. 

The TGIFC designers have some lovely interpretations of this sketch. Check them out and play along! #tgifc159

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

More pumpkins! Playing with these stencil decorative masks is kind of addicting. I used a blending brush, Cajun Craze & Golden Glow inks to color the pumpkins. Stamp set is called Painted Pumpkins.
