Monday Montage 143 - Floral Essence Birthday card fro Grandma

July 14, 2019

The Montage Montage crew is back today to share what we are working on.

Tomorrow my Grandma turns 89. This week I set out to make her a custom birthday card. Her favorite color is purple, it has been for as long as I can remember. I would love to visit her home as a child. She had a purple living room with white carpet and a purple couch that I just loved. Her piano room had purple shag carpet (gotta love the 70’s).

When I looked through my supplies I felt the Floral Essence stamp set and papers would make a beautiful card for her. I also used the Making a Difference stamp set for the numbers 89 and the xx for the HAPPY die. A full list of supplies can be found below. I hope she loves it.

This card has lots of dimension so I will need to hand deliver. Lucky for me I head to Utah soon and can gift it then. I’ll have to text her a photo tomorrow so she can see it on her big day.

Piece of Cake card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Piece of Cake - TGIF Challenges Color - TGIFC193

Screen Shot 2018-12-20 at 6.50.29 AM.png

HOPE THIS YEAR IS A PIECE OF CAKE! So true. This week the TGIF Challenges design team have a color challenge for you: Melon Mambo, Lemon Lime Twist & Smokey Slate/Silver. #tgifc193

I created an interactive birthday card using a new stamp set and punch from the Stampin’ Up!’s 2018 Occasions catalog called ‘Piece of Cake’. A full list of supplies can be found below. What makes the card interactive? It has a window on the front that opens to a little rosette badge adhered to the inside. Kind of fun and different.

Bird Banter Card in a Box - Charlet Mallett, Stampin' Up!

Bird Banter Card in a Box - TGIF Challenges

January 26, 2018

Hello and happy Friday! This weeks TGIF Challenge is card in a box. Can you believe in all my years of crafting that I never made a card in a box? It took an awesome challenge for me to take on this project and it was super fun and not hard at all, just a little time consuming. You ready to give it a try? My friend and fellow design team member Carolynn Sander created a fabulous tutorial for you to follow. You can find it on her blog or watch it on her You Tube channel here.

Box cards fold flat to fit into an envelope and then pop open to be an interactive 3D card. I made this card for my dad's birthday and he was impressed. The guts of my card in a box feature the Bird Banter stamp set and the Happy Birthday Thinlet. Additional supplies are listed out below. Be sure to check out the TGIF Challenge blog for more inspiration. I can't wait to see what you make!

Birthday Wit - Color Challenge - TGIFC141

January 5, 2018

Happy New Year folks! It's almost the end of the first week of 2018. How's it going for you? Gotten anything done? It's been a busy week around here—snow storms, snow days and deadlines. Not much time for crafting for me but last night I did find time to cram in a last minute card for this weeks TGIF Color Challenge. Wanna play along? Color challenges are always so much fun. Make a project with the three colors below and post it over on the TGIF Challenge Blog. And now get ready to be inspired, check out the TGIF Challenge Blog ... the design team has started the year full of home run projects!!!

This card features a new stamp set from the Occasions mini catalog called Birthday Wit. This set is so funny and perfect for any type of birthday card. It's a must have! Check out all of these witty sayings. I can't decide which phrase is my favorite.

What do you think of my little bow-tie creation? It was so easy. I used the new Tailored Tag punch, also from the Occasions catalog.

Four easy steps:

1. Punch the shape from your favorite paper.
2. Cut the shape in half. Swap sides so smaller sides are touching to create the bow-tie shape.
3. Wrap the middle with a piece of the same paper (.5 x 1").
4. Adhere together. So simple.

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!

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!
