Global Design CASE Challenge - GDP188

May 6, 2019

Hello! My post is short and sweet today. A tip for you all, save your posts before you go to bed. Looks like I left my blog dialogue window open with a full posts written (for this one and other post) and didn't save. What a rookie move. Ah well, photos are pretty much all you need.

We are casing Brian’s card this week. I made two versions. My first card, shown at the end of this post, ended up looking like a duplicate rather than a case. So back to the drawing board! The second card used a similar template as Brian’s and I love how it turned out. Clean and layered and will be great for any baby gift.

I’d love to see what you come up with for this Global Design Project Challenge. Be sure to take your project #gdp188.

Good Morning Magnolia - Monday Montage 138

May 5, 2019

The Montage Montage crew is back today to share what we are working on. The Monday Montage crew is a talented bunch. A quick refresher, the Montage gals host a blog hop every other Monday showing you fun and exciting Stampin’ Up! products.

So I wrote an entire new post and it looks like it didn't save. LOL. Gotta love that when life is unpredictable. It was a good one, let’s see if I can remember… The highlights: New set, blends, floating card.

I’m working on my Mother’s Day projects. I’ve got to get this beauty in the mail today! Mother’s Day in the United State is April 12. This card features another new stamp set, Good Morning Magnolia. Available June 4.

I’ve tried my hand at the floating card technique. Loving this look and all the projects people are sharing. I do not have a press and seal but I made it work. Have you tried this technique? Jennifer McQuire has an excellent tutorial on youtube as does Emma Goddard. Google floating card technique and loads of ways to get this look will be found. Since I do not have a press and seal I had to get creative with removable adhesive.

Don’t you just love this floral? All the magnolias in my areas are blooming and now the petals are starting to fall. As fast as they bloom they disappear. This card kind of emulates the falling flowers.

Ready for more Stampin’ Up! inspiration? Be sure to loop through the entire hop and see all of the amazing artwork created just to inspire! Next up is Cheryl.

Thank You Banner panel - Incredible like You - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Incredible Like You - Stamp Review Crew

May 5, 2019

One great set, two THANK YOU banners. I made these banner panels forever ago but am finally sharing on this Incredible Like You edition of Stamp Review Crew.

As we ended the 2018 year the Artisan design team wanted to create projects to thank the Concept art team at Stampin’ Up! as well as our Artisan team leader Susan Wong. We were left to are own creative devices on what to use, colors, etc. Our only restrictions were size.

This larger THANK YOU banner piece (shown above) was my contribution to the Stampin' Up! Corporate Concept Art banner.

Banner for Susan Wong featuring Incredible like You - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Last month Susan was able to share the 16 banner pieces she received. We all made small 3x5 banners that she could string together in here creative space. Here is my contribution. You can see the other banner pieces on Susan’s facebook page here.

What is the Stamp Review Crew? We are an international group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators that get together to create projects using a specific stamp set. We blog hop on the first and third Monday of each month. I’m excited for you to see what my talented friends have created.

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

Creating Kindness Blog Hop - Shadow Box card

May 2, 2019

HELLO friends! Welcome to the Creating Kindness Around the World Hop. CREATING KINDNESS: We are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world who have come together to inspire you to create kindness through cardmaking and paper. Every month we create around a theme or idea and this months theme is SHADOWBOX card. And, every month, we invite a guest to design with us. Our guest designer is the amazing Heike Bolze!

Shadowbox. What does it mean?
NOUN 1. a case with a protective transparent front, used for displaying jewelry, coins, or other small objects.

I’ve tried to emulate that look on my first ever attempt at a shadow box. The ‘case or container’ is the card. My ‘transparent front’ is the open window frame created with the Stitched Rectangle die. And the small objects for display are the various flowers, birds and the sentiment from the ‘Free As A Bird’ stamp set. Pretty simple if you follow the formula. I really loved working on this card and will definitely try this again.

There are many ways to create this look. Fortunately many of my friends on this hop have videos that share how they created their cards. Hopefully these get your brain spinning and help you making your own version of a shadowbox card. Thanks for stopping by!
