Beautiful Baubles - Global Design Project Theme Challenge - GDP167

It’s THEME week at the Global Design Project. Tis the Season! What are you doing to prep for your holidays? Making cards?, Neighbor gifts? Gift tags? SHOW US!

My card today features the Beautiful Baubles Stamp set and dies. It’s a has a bit of a messy watercolor look which I like. This look is easy to achieve. Heat emboss the ornament image in white emboss powder on watercolor paper and then paint the color.. The embossed lines will help keep the color within each shape. It will bleed a little if super wet but that’s ok, that gives it the messy look.

Ready to play? Check out the Global Design Project blog to see what the other designers have created for this challenge play along with us! Happy stamping. #gdp167

Alpine Adventure - Stamp Review Crew

Welcome to the Alpine Adventure edition of Stamp Review Crew! We are showing you many ways you can use this stamp set (and the dies). Unfortunately the dies just barely sold out but many of these ideas can be recreated with the stamp set alone. If you already have the bundle - you are in luck! Lots of inspiration is in store for you.

Back in October I made quite a few projects with this set the were featured on Stampin’ Up’s facebook page. If interested you can see those ideas here.

What is the Stamp Review Crew? We are an international group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators that gets together to do a blog hop on the first and third Monday of each month. For each hop we chose a single stamp set to feature. We have a blog with all of the hops archived. You can hop through any hop, any time. Click here to see all of the hops!

Thanks in advance for taking the time to comment. I love to hear from you!

TGIF Challenges Anything but a card - TGIFC188

Happy FRIDAY and last day of November! TGIF challenges is coming at you strong today. #TGIFC188 Recently (at the Orlando OnStage in early November), the TGIF Design Team got together to swap projects. What does is a SWAP? Exactly what is is defined as:

In our case were exchanged hand stamped goodies. Our only criteria was that the project could not be a card (the typical thing we swap at these events). Many of us decided to wait to share our projects until this fun challenge. You must check out the TGIF Challenge blog and see more of these projects! What a talented crew. I’ll make a few little videos later today to share in my instagram stories of the swaps I received in return. @i.heart.stamps on instagram.

P.S. You’re the Best Tag Bag, Charlet Mallett - Stampin’ Up! (inside view)

P.S. You’re the Best Tag Bag, Charlet Mallett - Stampin’ Up!

My swap project is a little tag bag, created using the scallop tag punch and a 2” x 8.5” sheet of paper. These are super simple to make. Cut the paper to size. Punch both long ends. Add a couple score lines in the middle where you want it to fold and you are done! I needed an inch in the middle to support the gift. I added dry embossing to each bag after they were cut and punched.

Inside the little tag bag is a card holder. A must have for any cardmaker. I use these all the time and thought the crew might like. The stamp set is P.S. You’re the Best. A full list of supplies can be found below.

Can I tell you how much I LOVE THIS TEAM?!!! These gals are so very creative, kind, funny, and the most supportive bunch. I could myself so blessed to be able to know them and create with them.

A not so rare shot of me being cheesy. It appears I am pointing to my shirt. :)

Melissa Stout (the stamp doc) created us all TGIF Challenges shirts to wear (so many complements Melissa, you are a star). I think we looked pretty fan-freaking-tastic. Here are a few more shots from OnStage with the folks from the team who where able to attend. It was tricky to get a group shot, we sure tried hard.

Fancy Friday Blog Hop

Hello friends! I have some exciting news. I’ve been asked to join the Fancy Friday blog hop. The Fancy Friday team is a group of talented Stampin' Up! Artisan's, both past and present. We hop once a month, on the last Friday of the month. I love my Artisan friends so much and I am thrilled to be able to continue to craft with them every so often.

This month we are sharing our Christmas cards. My personal Christmas card this year is a hybrid card (part photo printed and part handmade). I did use some Stampin’ Up! products and my design skills to create the card, however my printed versions have not arrived in time to share. My original prototypes look pretty lame. So … I’ll share those another time. Stay tuned!

Instead, for this hop and to send to a few neighbors, I’ve made a fairly simple card using the Snow is Glistening stamp set and the Snowflake dies and embellishments. This is an easy card to create multiples of and I was able to create 10 quickly. FYI - Today is the last day to order the Snow is Glistening and other snowflake products.

Bonus! I created a second card for a few crafty girlfriends using one of my favorite Host sets called ‘Hung With Care’. The stocking images are adorable stamped in a single color. Perfect for simple stamping and stepped up a notch. Buyer beware. Never use the hashtag ‘hung with care’. Oops.

Are you ready to go? I’m so exited to see what these FANCY gals have in store. Next up is Cindy!
