Animal Outing Thank You Card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin' Up!

Animal Outing - Stamp Review Crew

June 17, 2018

Hello and welcome to the Animal Outing edition of Stamp Review Crew. Have you seen this darling animal stamp set yet? It's super cute stamp set with a tall giraffe, pudgy rhino and a momma kangaroo warming a baby koala. The sentiments are also darling and great for just about any occasion.

My card also features a texture background from the new Gallery Grunge stamp set. I like how the circle images in this set work well as giraffe spots.

What is this hop all about? 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 the SR Crew will showcase a new featured stamp set. Each stop along the hop will show you a different idea, or ideas using that set! Next up is Yalpha Mason. Thanks for visiting.

Are you Interested in purchasing Stampin' Up! products? 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!

My card features the Floral Statements stamp set. The 'Hello' has been stamped in Memento Black ink and then colored with Stampin' Blends.

Let's SALE-A-BRATE! Heartfelt Blooms - Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

January 25, 2018

I have quite a few reasons to celebrate 2018. A healthy family, a happy home, supportive friends, and a fabulous new stamping experience! Today I am celebrating because this is MY FIRST official global Artisan Design Team Blog post. This is also the the first Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop for the 2018 team. Super exciting, a little overwhelming and I won't lie ... a little stressful. The first time doing new things can be intimating.

With our first hop we are lucky to share a few of this years SALE-A-BRATION stamp sets. Are you familiar with Stampin' Up!'s SALE-A-BRATION promotion? If so skip ahead a few lines. If not, SALE-A-BRATION is an annual promotion Stampin' Up! holds where every 50$ purchase earns a free product. How cool is that?! The free product I am highlighting is this post is the Heartfelt Blooms stamp set.

'Heartfelt Blooms' is the first release of a new type of stamp art called DISTINKTIVE. New Distinktive stamps lay down the ink at different opacities giving the finished image more depth—like a photograph. A light tap in the ink pad goes a long way ...

For this 'Amazing' card I've masked and layered various ink colors to create this multi-colored flower.

Screen Shot 2018-01-13 at 10.29.33 PM.png

The Distinktive stamps look phenomenal stamped in one color! The way this flower stamp laid down ink instantly reminded me a non-silver photography class I took in college where we learned about gum bichromate printing. I love how the flower on this 'Sending Heartfelt Thoughts' card looks like a flat old photograph.

The large flower image from Heartfelt Blooms also creates a beautiful all over pattern when repeatedly stamped. Don't worry about overlapping images, the Distinctive stamp lays ink down well over the previously stamped image edges.

After I created this flower background (in Peekaboo Peach) I placed a sheet a vellum paper over the top to soften the look.

This 'Thank You' card also features the 'YOU' die-cut form the Celebrate You thinlets. These Celebrate You thinlets are available to earn for free with a qualifying Stampin' Up! purchase during Sale-a-bration.

I am in love with these new narrow note cards and envelopes. Are you looking to create the quickest WOW project ever? Stamp the large flower image on each card front in your favorite color. Layer with a stamped message, patterned paper and a little baker's twine. Accent with a pearl or two and you've just created the quickest handmade gift sure to wow.

I'm so excited to begin this Artisan Design Team journey. Now be sure to check out what the rest of the team has in store. Next up is the super inspiring and talented Connie Collins. Thanks for joining us today!

Supplies for all of these projects are listed below. If you have any questions about the supplies used or how these projects were made drop me an email and I'll get back with you.

If you are a total nutso die hard like me you have already browsed and browsed and placed an order. Here is a link to the catalog PDF if you haven't yet had a chance to check out all of this new goodness. If you love it and want a hot little copy of the catalog in your hands just send me a quick note here and I'll get you one.

Want a little peak? Here you go! CHARLET'S TOP 5. These are my top 5 stamp (in no order) must haves from the new catalog. It's fun to rank. There are so many good things to choose from but these are my personal favorites! Because I always gravitate toward the most expensive and items with tools (what is my problem?!) I'll have to spread out my purchases. Just as well, something to look forward to. Stay tuned for fun projects created with these lovelies in the coming months.

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!
