Thoughtful Banners - Stamp Review Crew

May 14, 2017

WELCOME!!! Welcome to another Stamp Review Crew blog hop. This week we are sharing fun new ways to use a current staple, Thoughtful Banners! This stamp set has a greeting for almost all occasions. So many options and choices. I chose to create a Graduation card for my nephew.

I created the square background by stamping the bar piece from this stamp set repeatedly in Lemon Lime Twist on Whisper White card stock. I LOVE this new color. The graduation cap is hand cut from black card stock. The tassel has been trimmed down to be more in proportion to the cap. These mini tassels are available in June. So cute!

I can't wait to see what our Stamp Review Crew has created with Thoughtful Banners. Next up is Nikki Spencer. Thanks for stopping by.

Thoughtful Banners - WWYS97

January 2, 2017

Can you believe it? A new year ... 2017! Woohoo!!!

Welcome to the first week of What Will You Stamp for 2017. The challenge set this week is Thoughtful Banners. It's hard to pull out older sets when I have so many fun new toys from the Occasions catalog. I decided to pair Thoughtful Banners with many of the products from the new Sealed With Love Suite. I love combining older and newer products, everything looks so fresh. Speaking of love, I am in LOVE with this new little envelope die. So cute! I used the I LOVE YOU phrase from Thoughtful Banners to create the little love letter coming out of the envelope.

Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to stop by the WWYS blog to see more awesome projects using this set. If you happen to have this stamp set, make a project and play along with us!

Picture Perfect - WWYS 69

June 20, 2016

It's full on summer. We spent the day at the beach yesterday for Father's day. It was so nice and relaxing. YEAH!!! In honor of summer, beaches and all things happy and sunny here is a nautically inspired card using the starfish image from Picture Perfect. You guessed it, Picture Perfect is this week's What Will You Stamp challenge set.

I wasn't really sure what direction to take this card when I started but I am please with how it turned out. I'm itching to use new catalog sets so I paired Picture Perfect with the new Thoughtful Banners stamp and Duet Banner punch. Bright, simple and sunny. The little bits of copper glimmer you see are from the Affectionately Yours Designer Washi Tape! Love it.

The pop of dark blue is the new Incolor Dapper Denim. Another LOVE IT.

Play along with us and check out the more great projects using Picture Perfect on the What Will You Stamp blog. Thanks for stopping by!.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY - Badges & Banners, Thoughtful Banners

June 18, 2016

Happy Father's DAY weekend. We have some fun things planned and hopefully you do too. I'm not sure crafting will make it into the mix this weekend so I made my Father's Day cards early. I figured I'd post these cards today, instead of tomorrow, in case you need some last minute Father's Day card inspiration! My Dad and Chris rarely follow the crafty blog posts so I think I am ok. I mailed my Dad's gift, sans card, last week. Oops. Looks like he'll be getting is card a little later.

These two cards use all sorts of fun new products. The Diagonal background stamp is going to be a very well used stamp. I LOVE It. These supplies lists are not for the faint of heart. Ouch! I guess I needed to use all sorts of new goodies.

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. 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!
