Just Believe

Good morning! It's been a busy week and I finally have some time this morning to do a post. Here is another card from out last card class. I just love the punches along with the Big Shot. Actually I think I love just about everything from Stampin' Up. Couldn't live without any of it.

I spent sometime this week with fellow stampers and it was the highlight of my week. It is so good to have good friends and even more so when they like the same things you do. I plan to spend a day this week with one of my new friends that attends my Tuesday card class. We are going to mount all her new stamp sets and organize her craft room. Should be a fun day!!





For this card we used Rose Red for the card. We layered it with Beyond the Garden DSP and a piece of Pear Pizzazz run through the Big Shot with the Finial Press Embossing Folder. Next comes a piece of Rose Red put through the Big Shot with the Polka Dot Embossing Folder. Next I used Pacific Point and on top a piece from the Ice Cream Parlor DSP. I used the Mat Pack and the Paper Piercing Tool to accent the DSP and the Scallop Circle. The flowers were cut with the 5 Petal Flower Punch and we placed a Rhinestone Brad in the center of each. The sentiment is from Just Believe.

Hope you are all having a great Memorial Day week-end.
Thanks for stoppin' in. See you soon. Have fun creating !!

Hugs,
June

It's a cloudy Sunday morning in Southern California but the temp is in the 60's, so not so bad. Just had a magnificent Belgian Waffle at Ihop.

Sorry I haven't posted the last couple of days but we have a family member who is very sick and I have been spending most of my time on that. My daughter is having to return to Michigan and take care of some things and it's been a pretty dramatic time for both of us.

Here is another of March's card class cards. Hope you like it and use it to inspire you to make your own.

Stamp set: Just Believe

Cardstock: Daffodil Delight, Whisper White and Sunny Garden DSP

Ink: Daffodil Delight and Pear Pizzazz

Accessories: Gold Brads, Daffodil Delight 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon, the Big Shot, baby, with the Framed Tulip Emboss Folder, and Stampin' Dimensionals

Simple but a nice way to say Thank You.

Thanks for stoppin in and hope to see you again real soon. Have a wonderful Sunday afternoon.

Hugs,

June

I just can't get enough of this stamp set. I think it will be my favorite for a while. It is just so simple and nice.

My ladies had a great time yesterday. I had two who were first time stampers and they loved it. My regular lady is just the greatest and she is such a joy to have at class. We all got to meet new people and we just had fun!

This is one of the eight cards that we made.

Supplies used were: Pear Pizzazz , Blushing Bride and Whisper White cardstock, Just Believe stamp set, Lap of Luxury DSP, Pear Pizzazz and Basic Grey ink, Basic Pearls, Boho Blossoms punch and Blushing Bride 1/2" Stitched Poly Ribbon, snail adheshive, mini glue dots and Stampin' Dimensionals.

Clean and simple but very nice.

Thanks for stoppin and hope to see you soon.

Good morning! I hope it will be a good day. I see the Dr this morning and hope she takes the pain away.

We had a great card class on Saturday and one came yesterday to do the cards because her little girl was sick on Saturday. I have three more coming this week to do them also. We just have a good time sharing together. So if you live in my area and would like to have some fun in March, remember my card class is the 3rd Saturday and my Big Shot class is the 4th Sunday of every month.

I am looking forward to three workshops in March. I can't believe the difference Sale-a-bration makes in the workshops. To bad we don't have it more than once per year. I am also looking forward to promoting this month.

We also have a great offer from Stampin' Up right now until March 31st. You can become a demonstrator for 15% off the kit price (148.75) instead of $175, plus you will receive a $50 bonus kit for free! What a deal!! You can sign up on my store website by clicking on the circle to the right of this post.

Supplies used to make this card were:

Just Believe stamp set, Wild Wassabi, Perfect Plum and Whisper White cardstock, Wild Wassabi and Perfect Plum Markers, 5/8" Pear Pizzazz Satin Ribbon, Basic Rhinestones, the Ornament Punch, Big Shot with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder and Stampin' Dimensionals.

Simple but very pretty. My one lady wanted me to help her make a Wedding card that she had already gotten the supplies for from the "m" store, and when she saw the Vintage Wallpaper Folder she asked if I could put that in her card. We made a gorgeous Wedding card and she was so happy.

Thanks for stoppin in and hope to see you again real soon.

Good morning. We had a beautiful day yesterday, my husband turned 80 and we celebrated our 57th aniversary. Had a great brunch at the 94th Aero Squadron with family and friends. Played some card games in the afternoon and got a beautiful Coach bag for my birthday which was January 29th. Such fun.

This was the favorite card at my January card class. I just love the bright and cheery look of Tangerine Tango. I used that and the DSP and Whisper White cardstock. We used Tangerine Tango ink for the thank you and colored on the stamp with Tangerine Tango and Wild Wasabi Markers for the image. Images are from the Just Believe stamp set.

We also used a few punches; 1 3/8" Circle, Modern Label, Word Window and the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border. They loved using the punches. We also used Stampin' Dimensionals. So easy but a nice card to say Thank You.

Hope you all had a great week-end. Thanks for stoppin in and hope to see you again real soon.

Hugs,

June

Just Beleive

I am having a big shot class on the 17th of October and have all my projects ready. I thought I would share one of them with you today. I just love the big shot and wish I had every die, folder, sizzlet and anything else that goes with it. I have trouble not using it for every thing I make. You really need this, it is so much fun.

I decided I wanted a couple of 3-D projects and I just love the Scallop Envelope Box. It is so cute and holds a maximum of 6 - 3x3 cards and envelopes. I made 3 this time and I did them for different occasions. One is a thank you, one a just for you and the other is a friends.



I used Concord Crush for my box, decorated with Concord Crush dsp from the level 1 hostess incolor paper pack. The cards are made of Very Vanilla with layers of Concord Crush or Blushing Bride. I used the Just Believe stamp set, the word window and modern label, 1 1/4 inch circle punches. I used Concord Crush and Blushing Bride ink.

Hope you like them and they inspire you to do some of your own.

Thanks for stoppin in!

Have a blessed day!

VINTAGE VOGUE

Our team finally has a name and now since I am a member of the Rockin', Rollin', Reinkers' team, I learned how to rock and roll this morning. I think this is how I was going to tell you this but I'm not sure if it's exactly what I thought to say at the time I did it. But it was something to this effect. Must be one of my senior moments.




When I started this card I was going to use the Just Believe stamp set and somehow I ended up using Vintage Vogue. I didn't intend to go vintage either but I ended up with that too. Go figure!! However I love the end results.

My base card is 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 Naturals Ivory, layered with 5 1/8 x 5 1/8 Soft Suede, and the top layer is 5 x5 from the Elegant Soiree' DSP.

I used the Vintage Vogue and Friends 24/7 stamp sets.

Card stock is: Naturals Ivory, Soft Suede, Elegant Soiree' dsp, Marina Mist

Ink is: Marina Mist and Soft Suede to thwack the edges with a sponge

Accessories are: Decorative Label Punch, Vintage Brads, Scallop Oval Punch and the Large Oval Punch, 1 1/4" Marina Mist Striped Ribbon, Linen thread and dimensionals

I made this card just because I wanted to and then looked at the challenges for this week and decided to enter in 4 of them. They are: Connie and Mary (CCMC113), Mojo Monday (Mojo 153), Stamping 411(SSC166) and last but not least Paper Players (APP#13).

Hope you will check out all these blogs and join in at least one of their challenges. It's so fun to play along.

Thanks for stoppin in!

Have a blessed Sunday!

PUNCH POTPOURRI

This is the other card I made yesterday for my neighbor. I just love the look of the ornament punch for a vase. It's too cute. Whoever came up with that idea is brillant. I also love the colors on this card.



I started with a Very Vanilla card base and layered it with Rich Razzleberry. Then I put on a piece of green from the Cottage Wall collection and then a piece of Razzleberry flowered dsp. I then wrapped a strip of Old Olive Satin ribbon around the layers before putting them on my card base. I punched an ornament from the Cottage Wall DSP and then cut a small strip from the bottom of it to form the vase. The leaves are from Just Believe and the flowers in the vase are stamped from the Punch Potpourri set and punched out with the Boho Blossoms punch. I put them on with dimensionals. I layered the Very Vanilla with the vase and flowers on to a piece of Rich Razzleberry and adhered that to the card. I punched a scallop circle with the 2 3/8 " Scallop Circle Punch and then stamped the sentiment on Very Vanilla and cut it out with the scallop circle punch. I sponged around the Very Vanilla pieces with Old Olive before mounting. I really like the way it turned out.


Thanks for stoppin in!


Hope your night is blessed!
