Grateful Theme Challenge #TGIFC134

November 17, 2017

Hey guys! It's a theme challenge over at the TGIF Challenges blog. This week theme is "Grateful" and is appropriately timed for those of us in the USA with Thanksgiving last approaching.

Let me tell you, I am sure grateful for you and this amazing stamping community. Thank you for your comments, love and support. Its been a wild couple of weeks and I count myself very lucky to be a part of this awesome Stampin' Up! and paper crafting community. I'm also grateful for the TGIF Challenges crew. I got to meet many of these ladies face to face in SLC last week and it was such a treat! They are such talented and genuinely nice people.

I'm sharing two cards today. My first card uses Pick a Pumpkin and the Painted Harvest stamp sets. I just realized the little acorn is no longer available for purchase (I hate it when I do that). Yikes. But you could easily swap out the for a little wooden leaf from the Touches of Nature embellishments if you wanted to recreate this card.

This fun pumpkin card uses the outside shape of the large pumpkin from the Pick a Pumpkin framelits to create the window. The stamped images from the the Labels to Love stamp set.

Play along with us and share your Grateful creations on the TGIF Challenges blog.I can't wait to see what you all create. Happy stamping!

Trick or Treat - Halloween Scraps Card

October 31, 2017

Happy Halloween! I love this rad holiday and all the traditions it brings. I'm a little sad to share my last Halloween project this season but super excited to move onto Thanksgiving, more fall and Christmas projects. Paper crafting is so much fun.

This last card uses a bunch of scraps and outtakes from the various projects I worked on this month. As you may have noticed I used a lot of Pumpkin Pie water color wash backgrounds on my cards. I really liked with soft look against the contrast of orange and black images. Another favorite product this season is the black and white striped ribbon. LOVE IT!

I hope you have a happy and safe Halloween. TRICK or TREAT!

Pick A Pumpkin Celebrate card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin' Up!

Welcome to another edition of the Stamp Review Crew blog hop. This edition is focused on the Pick a Pumpkin stamp set. This is a stamp set I love and have used a ton recently. It is a must have set!

Want to know how I got that distressed black ink look? I keep an old (somewhat dry) black ink pad around. It still inks up stamp images but stamps really uneven. This uneven distressed look can be so cool sometimes and I decided it would look great with the pumpkins from the Pick a Pumpkin stamp set. I stamped each pumpkin in black ink and then colored over the top of each image with a Peekaboo Peach Stampin' Write marker. What do you think? I think it looks pretty cool.

Want to see more inspiration using the Pick a Pumpkin stamp set? Hop along with the Stamp Review Crew and check out all the amazing Pick A Pumpkin projects.  Up next is Tanya. 

A little background 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. Each edition of the Crew will showcase a new featured stamp set. Each stop along the hop will show you a different idea, or ideas using that set!

Pick a Pumpkin might be my favorite fall and Halloween stamp set in the 2017 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog. I can see myself using it for years to come. And, it is this weeks What Will You Stamp challenge set. I opted to make a Halloween card and stamped the jack-lantern faces onto a couple of the pumpkins from the Spooky Night Designer series papers. Additional supplies are listed below.

Check out what the WWYS team created using this set and play along with us!

The people are always the best part of any experience, especially this one.

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.

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!
