Monday Montage 166 -

June 7, 2020

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

Last week I shared a card with the Fancy Friday Team using the ‘Well Written’ die cuts. I created another fun birthday card using my outtake pieces.

We are celebrating our sons 18th birthday this week. Can’t believe our middle child is now an adult.

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. 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 Dani

Like this card? Want to make it?
I would LOVE to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. If you live in the United States you can order your paper crafting supplies from my online store. So easy. THANK YOU!

Itty Bitty Greetings - Father’s Day Card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Monday Montage 165 - Itty Bitty Greetings

May 24, 2020

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

While I patiently wait for my Stampin’ Up! preorder to arrive I am using up some of my favorite retiring papers. I love the tiny feathers in the Bird Ballad Designer Series paper. I hand cut out a few feathers to create a simple Father’s day card. Father’s day is going to sneak up on me before I know it so I am happy to have a card handy.

BTW - the Bird Ballad Designer series paper is available until the end of May. It’s 30% off, while supplies last.

Button, Button - Global Design Sketch Challenge - GDP194

June 17, 2019

Hi friends! Welcome back to another Global Design Project challenge. #gdp194 This week we have a great sketch for you to use as a jumping off point.

My card for this challenge features the die cut button images from the Arts & Crafts Dies and the Button, Button embossing folder. I loved lining up the three buttons in these sweet colors. The buttons embossed in the background are also so sweet. I’ve been wanting to break out these products for a while. This card is perfect for the seamstress or sewing enthusiast.

The Happy Day greeting comes from the Itty Bitty Greeting stamp set.

Itty Bitty Birthdays- Global Design Theme CASE Challenge - GDP192

June 3, 2019

Hi friends! I’m super excited to share this week’s Global Design Project challenge. I am honored to have one of my cards as the inspiration for this challenge and I can’t wait to see what you make using this card as your inspiration.

I love the look of a flagged banner on a card. It makes for an easy focal point and I use it often. This was the jumping off point for my new project.

This new card features two great greetings stamp sets: Itty Bitty Greetings and Itty Bitty Birthdays. The ‘It’s Your Day’ sentiment has been stamped in Pretty Peacock, Bermuda Bay and Granny Apple Green. I used the Stamparatus to help with the alignment. The ‘Happy Graduation’ sentiment comes from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set.

It continues to be graduation season around here. Out local high school graduation is next week. I needed a card without many frills for a teen boy. I think this turned out perfect for the occasion. I’ve created these graduation caps before. Here is the info on how to make the graduation cap.

What do you think? I can’t wait to see what you come up with for this Global Design Project Challenge. Be sure to take your project #gdp192

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. ❤️❤️❤️

Sunshine and rainbows... such a fun theme. I created this card for @global_design_project theme challenge #gdp487 - Lemon Lolly is such a fun yellow and I love it paired with Summer Splash.

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!
