Marvelous Monday 2-23-09

birthday-wishes-flowersThis gorgeous card is another beautiful project created by my talented up-line Mindy.  This was one of the cards from our shoebox swap a couple of weeks ago.

I love how she used the glitter to make the flowers really stand out.  One of my other favorite about this card is kind of hard to see, but down at the bottom we used the new Eyelet Border Punch just once and then put paper behind it.  I really loved this look.

Freewheeling Friday 2-20-09

This wheel is retired but I just love this card and had to show it to you.  This card is so simple but I love it.  First she wheeled the butterflies and then she colored them in.  

thanks-butterfiles-cardMy favorite part is that afterwards she covered the entire wheeled section with VersMark® pad and then iridescent ice embossing powder.  I love how it sparkles.  I think it’s such a great card.  I received this card in a swap, but it didn’t have a name, sorry.

115068 Sincere Salutations $23.95
104832 Black Gingham Ribbon $7.50

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. 

mr-mrsI 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
#100712 Brushed Silver Paper $7.95
101227 1/16″ Circle Punch $8.95

Colors used: Black, White, Real Red (you could choose any color)

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. 

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

sab-friendship1Then 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.
