October Stamp N Share Projects

Here are the three (3) October Stamp N Share Club Projects.  Our hostess was Barb - she brought the cute Christmas Gift Card Holder that can hang on the tree!  What a neat idea.  Thanks Barb!

Here are the other two projects.  The first card with the Ornaments are made with the new Punch from Stampin' Up! (love their punches!) and the second card with the Snowmen are from the Holiday Lineup SU Set and the frosted window is punched with the 1 3/4 inch circle punch 3 times and then I used strapping tape and Dazzlying Diamond Glitter to frost the window (sticky side up toward the face of the card).  The border on the Snowman Card is made from the SU Specialty Designer Series Paper called Chrismas Cocoa Specialty, it is flocked and oh so fun!  Card stock is Real Red SU and Walmart White.  I used SU Markers to color the Snowmen.  Fun and messy card to make, my granddaughter Maddie made one (age 6) and was so proud of herself when she was finished - did  great job too!

Birthday Card for Barb - Happy Birthday!

Winter Post Shoe Box Project

This is what I took to the SCS Oregon Shoe Box Swap in Canby, Oregon today...can't wait to post copies of the cards and things I get to bring home...more later!

Close up views...

This card is for my sister and brother-in-law's first anniversary. They were married last September in Italy...I used my new cuttlebug border folders...fun. Black and White paper always looks elegant I think.

Here are two Punch cards I made with my SU Circle, Oval, and Slot punches. The paper is Green Galore, Basic Black, and Whisper White. I used the White Gel Pen to write on the black like a chalk board. I used my paper piercer to make the sewing edge on the bottom card. I glued on goggle eyes.

Fun, I got the idea from Dawn's website.

Get Well Friend Card

I don't have many stamp sets for making a get well card but I have a Stampin Friend who is in the hospital and wanted to make her a card to let her know I am thinking of her. This is what I came up with from the Window Dressing Set. I used Filigree Background stamp, and the new hostess set Best Yet. I colored it with the SU water color crayons and used my new scallop edge punch on the SU Designer Pumpkin Pie paper.

Son Oscar's Birthday Card

Our son Oscar turns 22 years old today, can't believe where the time has gone! Happy Birthday Oscar!

Birthday Card

This is a card I made a friend for her birthday, used the nestables scallop and scallop SU punch.

September Stamp Club Projects

Tonight was our first workshop of the season. We had 11 people there tonight...here are the 3 projects we made. Mainly used punches and just a little stamping. Happy Fall You All!

The Baby Card is from a blog that I will have to try to remember who to credit this punch baby card to.

The little fall candy holder is made with a 6 x 6 square piece of designer paper and is folded in a "Diaper Fold". The idea came from Sue's Stamping Cyper Sister, Heidi Fleetwood.

The Frankenstein is a treat bag, I used a white lunch sack. The idea came from Dawn's blog.

Card I Cased!

Casing (or coping) cards from others is the sincerest form of flattery! Here is a card I cased from my dear friend Sue.

You can find her version on her blog: http://suestamping stuff.blogspot.com/

It is a card made from a die cut pattern from a craft store. I used SU Designer Paper and Chunky SU Glitter. I used the scallop punch and pink gingham SU ribbon. The top photo is the card insert (cupcake) pulled out of the cupcake holder.
