April Club- Just Beachy

This post is a little late, but I thought you would like to see the fun projects we did for club in April. I featured the fun Just Beachy set from the mini catalog and showed them how to do the cracked Glass technique. I love this technique it looks so cool and is actually really easy to do.I got this fun idea from Kelly. You can check out her blog here: http://stampinparadise.blogspot.com. I changed it a bit.

I thought if you are really different than maybe you would be a different color. I don’t know if you noticed it but this fish is the only one in the set that goes the other way. Here is a close up of the cracked glass.

Here is the scrapbook page that I came up with using the card as my inspiration. I love how simple it is, but it has just a fun summer feel. We colored the fish with the watercolor wonder crayons and a aqua painter.

This is the second card that my card group made. I totally cased it from a blog, I tried to find it again so I could tell you who, but I couldn’t. I changed the saying in the center, but the rest is basically like hers. I thought it was a really cute card. The size is actually 5×5 go go in our 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 envelops. The fish are punched out with the 1 1/4″ Square Punch and then sponged with the pacific point.

We stamped Happy Birthday from the $10.00 and under page on the inside. Of course we used Whisper White craft in so that it would show up.

Since I had also just got the Matchbox die of course we had to try that out as well. Here is our fun projects using the match box die and the designer series paper from the mini catalog Walk in the Park.

Before I left for Hawaii I created a Paper Bag Scrap-booking using the Good Friends Stamp Set. I decided I wanted to enter it into the Scrap-booking Class Challenge that Stampin’ Up! was having.

I was one of four winners and my project was posted today on our demonstrator site. I have entered so many contests and it’s such an honor to finally win.

Freewheeling Friday 3-6-09

I received this cute card at convention. I was created by D. Waterman (I think that was in her email address). I love how she used the word window punch to create the Popsicles. The watermelon is made by cutting the 1-1/4″ and 1-3/8″ Circle punches in 1/2.

I really love how she kept the wheel part simple and just rolled it across in the middle. She also rolled the background of the white part with a different roller. This is just a fun summer card. I think it would also be a cute accent on a scrapbookpage.

Product used:
111260 Something Fishy JW $8.50
113504 Life’s a Breeze $31.95
109687 See you Around JW $8.50
104401 1-3/8″ Circle Punch $15.95
104403 1-1/4″ Circle Punch $15.95
105090 Word Window Punch $15.95

Thrifty Thursday 3-5-09

Here’s a blast from the past. This was the first Scrapbook page I made as a Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator. I used one of our Simply Scrapin’®Kits. I don’t think there is anything (besides paper and inks) that is still available.

I really love the Simply Scrapin’ Kitsbecause they make scrapbooking fast and easy. They come with the stickers, DSP and Cardstock add a few stamps and accessories and you are good to go.

This page really works for Thrifty Thursday because it uses the Stampin’ Pastels® to achieve all the great colors. The chalks are a very economical way to get our wonderful colors. This is a simple technique called poppin’ pastels. It’s actually really easy. All you do is stamp your image using the VersaMark® ink and the apply the chalk. The best way to apply the chalk is with our wonderful sponge daubers.

If you’ve never tried this technique before I encourage you to give it a try. If it’s been a while then it’s a great time to remember it. Here is a list of supplies you will need:
105542 Stampn’ Pastels $24.95
102283 VersaMark Pad $7.50
102892 Sponge Daubers (12) $10.95
Stamp Set of your Choice (Bold sets work the best)

Wacky Wednesday 1-7-09

Well I’m in Florida today enjoying the warm weather, so I thought I would share with you a nice summer project. This project is really so easy. I just bought a frame (I think I got this one at wall-mart.) Then I added our great rub-ons. I love how perfectly the words went with the pictures. I used the Perfect Day rub-ons #111277 for $10.95. To create my frame.

This was a fun day we had with my Brother and his family at Bearlake 2 summers ago. It really was just a perfect day.
