Birthday Wit & Party Pandas GDP125 - Charlet Mallett, Stampin' Up!

Birthday Wit & Party Pandas for Global Design Project Color Challenge

February 12, 2018

How about a little Birthday Wit & Party Pandas for this weeks Global Design Project Color Challenge (GDP125)? I think both of these stamp sets look great with strong colors! The colors we are using for this challenge are Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Dapper Denim. All favorites of mine.

I tried to create a little firework background for this card. Not sure how well the blue Brusho reads as fireworks ... what do you think? Does it look like a celebration or a big blue mistake? Ha! Either way I hope you found a little inspiration here and be sure to check out what the other designers created using this fabulous color combo. Play along! Thanks for visiting.

Party Pandas - What Will You Stamp

February 5, 2018

Happy Monday! My Party Panda stamp set has been getting quite a bit of use lately so I thought I'd mix it up a little. For this weeks What Will You Stamp challenge I created a Party Panda cake topper. These little guys look so cute and festive all lined up in a row.

This cake topper was super easy to make. First I free hand stamped these pandas in a row on slight curve making each paw overlap slightly. I used THICK Whisper White cardstock as the base for more support. Next I colored and then I cut it out. SO EASY. The skewers are attached to the back of the pandas with hot glue and the Happy Birthday sentiment is tacked on with a fine tip glue pen.

I had so much fun with these colors that of course I HAD to make a matching card. What do you think? This would make a fun theme for a kid party!

Check out even more Party Panda inspiration on the WWYS blog and play along with us if you have this stamp set. AND, if you want to see even more inspiration check out the Sale-a-bration Stamp Review Blog hop. Happy Stamping!

Party Pandas Shaker card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin' Up!

Party Pandas! - Sale-a-bration Blog Hop - Stamp Review Crew

January 28, 2018

Who's ready for a little Panda love? MEEE! I am a total sucker for Panda's making this stamp set a must have for my "collection". HA! The Stamp Review Crew is hosting a bonus hop this month featuring Sale-A-Bration products. I was feeling like I hadn't given these little cuties enough love so I decided to take a LOVE approach with this Panda Shaker card.

A quick refresher for you in case you are new to this hop: The Stamp Review Crew is a group of International Stampin' Up! demonstrators who want to show you how much you can do with ONE stamp set (or in this case Sale-A-Bration stamp sets). We typically feature a single set on the first and third Monday of a month but we decided to through in a BONUS hop this month. Each stop along this hop (17 of us) will show you a different idea, or ideas using a Sale-A-Bration stamp set. The set I choose to feature today is called Panda Party.

A few interesting things about this card that you might not immediately catch ... The 'Love' word die-cut comes from the Lovely Words thinlets. In this case I chopped off the 'LY' and snipped the word away from the heart. The shaker confetti is punched from various sheets of patterned paper using my trusty old 1/8th circle punch. Also in the shaker window are a couple of larger white hearts, one with the message 'Love You'. Interactive cards are fun! Full list of supplies below.

I'm so excited to see what the rest of the crew has in store today. Next up is Yapha , enjoy!

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!

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!
