Samples – Page 43 – Stampin' With Candice

Thrifty Thursday 2-19-09

I got this card in a swap and just fell in love with it. It’s so simple yet just has that wow factor. I’m not sure who it was created by she just had an e-mail address so I can’t give proper credit sorry. I love how she did the towels on a little towel bar.

I think this card is a great card for Thrifty Thursday because it’s quick and easy to produce. Plus it’s so easy to do in many different colors. It would make a great bridal shower card or wedding gift card. You could make the card the same colors as their wedding colors or if you know their bathroom colors that would be really cute. Then you could through in some matching towels and have a cute gift that matches. How fun is that.

So anyway here is what she used:
115100 Together Forever $22.95
#109034 Real Red 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon $4.95 (You could do any color)
#104336 Silver Brads (200) $6.95

Technique Tuesday 2-17-09

Today I thought I would share with you a cute project that we did at a recent workshop. It you would be interested in doing this fun project at your own workshop give me a call 435-245-5321.

This is a simple technique but I love it. It’s simply looking at a card or scrapbook page and using the layout for the opposite. That means use a scrapbook page layout for a card or a card layout for a scrapbook page. I really love it when I can use the same layout for both.

Here is my example. I used the exact same supplies and lay out to create this fun 3×6 card.

Then I did it as a 6×6 scrapbook page. By moving the stamped image and adding the photo it give it a whole new look.

I really love this concept for a gift because you can make the cute page and them make a matching card.

This is a picture of me with my friend Deborah. She is one of the demonstrators I met at Leadership last year. This picture was taken at Convention when we both earned Hawaii. One of the best parts of becoming a demonstrator has been the friends I’ve made. Weather they are in my down-line or just our group it so awesome because I never would have met them if it weren’t for Stampin’ Up!® If you want to find out more about the benefits of becoming a demonstrator click here.

Marvelous Monday 2-16-09

Recently I was able to preview the new Spring Mini Catalog (just one of the many perks of becoming a demonstrator. Can I just say “So cute” I can’t wait. Be watching for a Sneak peek and pre-order items for customers starting March 1st. Anyway I was looking back through some old projects and remember this scrapbook page that I entered into a contest last year. Although the paper and many of the accessories are now retired (it was last years spring mini) I thought the idea would inspire you and remind you that our mini catalog items are for a limited time only so start planning today. April and May are great times to have a Stampin’ Up!® party.

This was my son Mikey on his Kindergarten field trip. I just love how the chipboard elements add depth to the page. These pages used last year’s In-Colors. Remember the current In-Colors are only available until the end of June. Stock up now to make sure you get your favorites.

I really love this page. The big pictue was my favorite. I loved that I was able to print the pictuers to just the right size with my pictue printer (HP Photosmart D7360) I love it.

Swapping Saturday 2-14-09

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Today I thought I would share some of the other Valentine’s Day cards that I’ve made or gotten from swaps. Hope you enjoy. Here are just 2. You can click here to see more.

I really like this card. I love how she used the hearts for balloons. This card was created by Naomi Keeling. You can check out more of her stuff at: www.stampwithnaomi.blogspot.com

This beautiful card was created by Kimberly Anderson. I think it was for my big shot swap. Check out all the beautiful detail. What I love about this card is it’s all the big shot so it looks complicated but the cutting part was easy.
