In the City - Case the Designer #GDP112

November 6, 2017
Charlet Designer Badge.jpg

Boy, do I have exciting news. I've been asked to become a design team member with the Global Design Project! You guys, this is awesome! I've been a long time fan and player of the GDP weekly challenges. The designers on the GDP team are active Stampin' Up! Demonstrators, super duper talented, and are from all around the globe! 

The Global Design Project has a new challenge every week that you can play along with. Every week is a different type of challenge; It could be Colour, Theme, CASE or Sketch inspiration.

This weeks challenge is to CASE the beautiful card that Connie Collins created. There are so many fun ways to interpret Connie's card.

I ended up making two cards for my first post with the GDP team. My first card ended up looking so much like Allison's card that I scrapped it and started over. HA - that's what can happen when you CASE! That card, using Christmas Sweaters, at the end of this post.

For the card I did end up submitting I decided to use the IN THE CITY host set. We have a lot of new neighbors moving into our area and this is perfect card to have on hand. The supply list of products are listed below.

 

Check out the Global Design Project blog to see all the various projects the designers have created and PLAY along with us! I can't wait to see what you create. Happy Stamping!

Wood Words - A Note For You - GDP096 Case the designer

July 20, 2017

I'm back with another challenge card for you. Today's morning card inspiration uses Wood Words. This is such a fun set.

I just LOVE the Global Design Project challenges. These are so much fun to play along with. Guess what? The GDP shared the love and I was selected as a winner in the #GDP095 theme challenge! Super cool, right? You can see that winning card here, and here.

The challenge this week is a Case the Designer challenge.  CASE = Copy And Selectively Edit. My jumping off point started with the layout of Tanja's card.  I completely mixed up the colors and stamp set but you can still see the inspiration. #GDP096

See more of Tanja's inspiring work here.  Happy stamping!

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.

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!
