Global Design Project - CASE Challenge - GDP200 - Above the Clouds

July 29, 2019

Hi friends. Can you believe the Global Design Project has been around for 200 challenges? Amazing! I’ve been lucky to participate a a designer since challenge 112. It’s such a pleasure to create cards for these challenges and truly such a reward to see your creations for each challenges.

This week we are CASEing this lovely card from Janneke De Jong. I loved the layout of this card and used that for the basis of my card. The stamp set I have used is called Above the Clouds. Trying to use ALL my Stampin Up! colors this year. I’ve pulled together some lesser used colors for this monochromatic look. I’ve used various orangey inks and stamped them off to give the softer pastel look. The swirls Embossing folder creates a fun swirly cloud look for the sky. A full list of supplies can be found below.

Are you ready to play along? Give this theme a try. I can’t wait to see what you come up with for this Global Design Project Challenge. Be sure to take your project #gdp200 so we can see your creation.

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.

Bike Ride Graduation Card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Bike Ride - Stamp Review Crew

April 28, 2019

Welcome to the Bike Ride edition of Stamp Review Crew. I really love this stamp set, do you? This set has served me well and I have created some fun projects with it. Stampin’ Up! has decided that this set will be discontinued on June 2. I’ve posted many of the projects that I’ve made with this set. Consider it a tribute. here’s a fond farewell … If you love it get it now!

My new project today is this cute pink card graduation card. The Bike Ride set is a BUILDER stamp set with so many images to stamp a BIKE scene. However the set includes ONLY images. For the sentiment I’ve paired the set with the new (coming June 4) Hot Air Balloon set called ‘Above the Clouds’. This card also features another NEW PRODUCT SNEAK: the Stitched Nested Label dies. Additional supplies can be found below.

Hello! I rarely show my face on here but I thought I’d pop in between cards and say hello from Stampin’ Up! OnStage in Raleigh!!! My crafty HEART is so full catching up with old and new friends. The people are always the best part of any experience, especially this one. I feel so lucky to catch up with my upline, old co-workers, the Artisan gals from various years, Monday Montage, TGIF challenges crew and even a sprinkle of Global Design Project peeps. So many lovely people who make my life better! It’s rare to find a place where you know so many people from decades of your life. Yay for stamping! I won’t spam you with all the many photos but here are a few. Yes, I’m usually a dork. ❤️❤️❤️

My fav… pulling out an OLD stamp set from the stash to create a custom background. I played with type to match the background to the primary image using simple watercolor and stamps. Paint and stamp in same color. Easy. Color is Blackberry Bliss. Stamp sets are Stampin’ Up! oldies but goodies: Rough Type & PS I Love You. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #useyourstash #cardmakingideas #cardmakingreels #papercrafting #handmadecard #cardmakingchallenge

All time favorite stamp set? How about favorite of the month? Year? I have so many "favs" and they rotate. Today we are sharing projects using our favorite stamp sets from our stash. There are certain stamp themes that I am certain to buy and keep. Any stamp set with a typewriter... or camera image, purchased! I have loads. On this card I used two typewriter themed stamp sets. 'Rough Type', which is and old alphabet stamp set. Remember those? It seems like we don't have many aphabet stamp set options anymore. Good thing I kept so many around ... The typewriter image is from a stamp set called 'P.S. You're the Best'. Check out what my friends created using their favorite STASH stamps sets!
