Samples – Page 8 – Stampin' With Candice

Stampin’ Sunday 3-15-09

I made this fun book Sunday Morning. It only took me about an hour and that includes creating it. I was asked to create a paper bag book for a class at church. I really had fun creating this book. I had never created a paper bag book before so this was really fun.

I love that I could have fun pull outs to go with it. I chose the good friend stamp set so that it could be versatile and you could put just about anything with it.

The book has a total of 10 pages plus 3 pullouts that are front and back. I had fun using the in-colors and the good morning sunshine paper. Here is a sample of just one of the page sections.

Since this was already planned for a class and features just one stamp set I am offering it as a project kit or a group class. You will find a list below of everything that is included as well as everything you will need to complete it. You can order this kit to make at home or get a group together and I will come to you. The price for the kit is $10.00. If you have at least 15 kits you will also get hostess benefits and I will give you your kit for free. The stamp set is roughly $33.75 with tax and shipping. Buy it with your kit for an even $30.00. Please contact me by email (andersoncandice@hotmail.com) or phone (435-245-5321) if you are interested.

Swapping Saturday 3-14-09

This was my swap from our group meeting on the 13th. I was so excited to use some of the product from the new occasions mini catalog. I loved that the butterfly matched the butterfly die cut. I stamped on the die cut butterfly after I cut it out. I also used directly to paper technique to add a little more to the edge. I created the antlers by cutting off the side of the white 1/4″ grosgrain ribbon. Then I pulled out some of the fibers. This is what I used to tie around the butterfly.

Thrifty Thursday 3-12-09

We really had fun at club last night doing these great projects using the Circle Cutter. I decided that it was a good one for Thrifty Thursday because the circle cutter can really save you a lot of money. I cuts circles from I think one inch up to 6″ and anywhere in-between. I also love that it cuts rings. I have seen fun papers made with circles and I love that now I can create my own in any color combination that I want. I also love the texture that it adds.

Now I will be honest the circle cutter does take a little practice as they quickly found out at club. However once you get it down I think you will love it as much as I do. It is so smooth and fast. I’ve really enjoyed playing with it and I’m sure I will enjoy it for many years to come. Right now is the perfect time to get this great product because when you by the cutter and the mat plus replacement blades it puts you over $50.00 so you can get a sale-a-bration set. This item has been on back order so you may not be able to order it on-line, however you can place an order through me. Be sure to get your orders in early as I leave on the 20th and won’t be back until the 30th.

I really love how I could use the punches to work with the circle cutter. On this card I punched out the Congratulations (from the new spring mini). I also punched the Chocolate Chip and Old Olive back ground papers. Then I used the circle cutter for the larger Cameo Coral circle.

We also focused on texture on the projects. The Old Olive papers are all textured card-stock. On many of the Chocolate Chip papers we ran them through the big shot using the circle texture plates. It’s hard to see but it really adds to the pages and card.

112531 Glass Mat $19.95

Wacky Wednesday 3-11-09

So you are probably wondering why these fun cards are featured under Wacky Wednesday. Well it’s really pretty simple. When I was looking at these cards and trying to decide where to put them I realized that I had forgotten to post my projects of the month.

These cute cards match the projects perfectly. I will hopefully get them posted later today. So I figured I was a little Wacky and running behind as usual.

Since I leave on the 20th and I’m getting a late start on getting out my monthly projects I decided two things. First I’m going to extend the deadline for this month (see more info with the projects) and 2nd I’m going to give the products to make these to cards with any kit that is ordered before the end of the month. You can email me at andersoncandice@hotmail.com or call me at 435-245-5321. Click here to see the projects.

Both of these cards were ones we made at our shoebox swap a few weeks ago. I’m not sure who designed the one with the rectangle but I know the circle one was by my awesome up-line Janice Barlow. I think they are both really cute. I love that they both used a different color of yellow and it works great with the DSP.

Products Used:
109065 Chocolate Chip Taffeta Ribbon $6.95
111372 Kiwi Kiss 5/8″ Stripe Grosgrain Ribbon $9.95
104403 1-1/4″ Circle Punch $15.95
109043 Scallop Circle Punch $15.95
105089 Horizontal Slot Punch $5.95

Technique Tuesday 3-10-09

For club we are using the new circle cutter and the textured dies for the big shot. I really wanted to showcase this texture die because it’s the new Manhattan Die and it’s finally available. I saw this die at leadership and fell in love with it. It is so pretty and I love how defined it is. This is definitely not a subtle effect.

To make this card we first cut out a large circle with the circle cutter. I cut out a 5″ circle I think. We used a 4 1/2″ at club but it was harder to cut off the top and bottom for the same effect of the card. Then we ran the die through the big shot. I love how fast and easy it is to create such a beautiful texture.

To finish the card I just stamped the Congratulations from the Sale-A-Bration set and added some ribbon. Remember that March 31st is the last day for Sale-A-Brationorders. You receive on set with every $50.00 you spend and there is no limit. I will be leaving for Hawaii on the 20th so all orders must be to me by the 19th or you can place an order on-line through my website.

Marvelous Monday 3-9-09

My Sister and I had a Game Night Friday night. She sales Simply Fun which fun family games. We thought it would be fun to use the new game night stamps and have a combo party. If you would be interested in more information about her games you can check out her website at www.brigetudy.simplyfun.com.

I wanted to create a fun project that would go along with the theme. I found this folder created by Wendy Knowles in our awesome group. I decided to give it a try. Her project was all covered with the DSP, but I didn’t have enough so I decided to try it with paper that I stamped on. She covered a file folder.

I found that this was a little more difficult with the solid paper verses the DSP and it was hard to fold and not have it bubble. I still think that it turned out cute, but was more time consuming than I wanted for the party so I decided I needed to simplify.

This is the project I came up with. It is really quite fast and easy. It’s just one sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 paper folded around the note pad. Then I added the DSP and some stamped paper. I still added the cute black strip in the front like she had. I used a crimped paper inbetween to give it a little more texture. I decided I didn’t want to tie the bow everytime we used it so I put the stampin’ demimentionals on the bottom part of the black tag only so I could slide the ribbon off the top.

Inside Wendy had attached the notebook with sticky strip but I wanted to be able to replace it with out tearing my book so I decided to put a strip of DSP all the way across. I only glued it down on one side. Where the note book is I placed it in-between the card board back and the last sheet of paper. Then I put sticky strip on each side of it. This way I cold slip the note book out and put a new one in.

We love to play games with my family and I really loved having a way to keep score. There is a little ribbon loop on the front that you can keep a pencil in. This way we can keep this with all the games and then when we want to play we don’t have to find a notebook a paper. Sometimes it’s also fun to see who won last time so it’s nice to have it all in one place.
