Tea Shoppe

Published by under Big Shot,Stamping

The 125547 Tea Shoppe stamp set that was in the Occasions Mini Catalog is now on the carryover list, so it is still available to purchase.  There are so many possibilities to make creative cards with this stamp set.  Here is an example of a bright and cheerful card that I saw at a recent stamping event.  Who wouldn't love to receive this in the mail?

Butterfly Card

Published by under Big Shot,Stamping

This is my swap card for one of my Stamp Clubs.  They select a swap theme every month.  This month's theme was coral and teal colors, which are the trendy colors in fashion and decorating, as well as in papercrafting. My card is 98% copied from my team member, Denise.  I changed the colors and the words (that's my 2%).  Thank you Denise!

 

 Supplies Used: 

Stamp Set:  115068 Sincere Salutations

Cardstock: 122925 Calypso Coral, 122923 Island Indigo, 101650 Very Vanilla

Punches: 119868 1" Circle punch, 122362 Lace Ribbon Border Punch

Ink:  122937 Island Indigo

Sizzix:  114507 Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die, 120175 Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder

Accessories:  125577 Large Pearl Basic Jewels, 104430 Dimensionals

 

And here are my completed butterfly cards.  I always have a sense of accomplishment when I finish a swap.

 

 

Last night's Stamp Club members love to swap cards.  Here they are for the first time on my blog.  They are holding up the amazing swap cards that they made.  It is like a mini-Christmas morning when everyone passes out their swap cards.  It is so fun to hear the ohh's and ahh's as everyone is admiring the swap cards.  

 

 

 (L-R):  Kathy, Roxanne, Jody, Rebecca, Doreen, Pam, Joni and Julie.

 

I will be starting my Clubs for this coming catalog year (June 1, 2012-May 31, 2013).  I have Technique Clubs, Big Shot Clubs, Stamp Clubs, Scrapbook Clubs and email Stamp Clubs.  Call, email or text me if you want me to send you more information about my Clubs!!!  I'd love you to join the fun!

Mixed Bunch Stamp Set

Published by under Punches,Stamping

I saw this card on a display board last Saturday.  It was made with the ever-popular 125535 Mixed Bunch Stamp Set and the 115370 Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set.  What intrigued me was that the flower image was embossed with 109132 White Embossing Powder on 101856 White Vellum Cardstock.  Then it was punched out with the 125603 Blossom Punch.

 

The 117154 Regals Collection Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack was punched with the 119865 1-1/4" Square Punch and used the 119871 3/16" Corner Punch on opposite corners.

 

A very striking card layout!

Bright Blossoms Stamp Set

Published by under Big Shot,Punches,Stamping

My demonstrator friend, Jennifer W., shared this card with me last weekend.  She created it with the 125495 Bright Blossoms and 122495 Petite Pairs Stamp Sets, along with the 125409 Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper.  I love her attention to detail by adding the flower punches from the 118309 Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack.  And to add some bling to this card, she used the 119246 Basic Rhinestones, which she colored with a permanent marker.  Thanks for sharing Jen!
