Custom Greeting Cards

Sue — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 04:38:47 +0000

A few months ago, a man from my church asked me if I would make some Christmas cards for his 90 year old mother. She had an angel stamp that she had purchased a while ago that she wanted me to use. I gave her four different designs to choose from. Here is the one she selected:

NOTE: This is not a Stampin' Up! stamp. (gasp)

The Stampin' Up! supplies used were: Very Vanilla Cardstock, Brushed Gold Cardstock, Perfect Polka Dots Embossing folder, dimensionals and the Eyelet Border Punch. I made 50 of these cards in June, which is the earliest that I've ever made Christmas cards! She loved them and I was happy to help her. If you would like me to make custom greeting cards or invitations, please contact me and we can discuss your project.

Incentive Stamp Camp

Sue — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 14:00:21 +0000

On June 29, my manager, Terri, had a Stamp Camp for her top demonstrators in sales and recruiting. I loved being able to attend this because Terri has such awesome projects.

We made this lined envelope with two matching cards using the 118611 Elements of Style stamp set.

Then we made this hair pretty using the Big Shot 118871 Island Floral Bigz die out of polar fleece.

We made this fabulous album out of the 118766 Briefcase On Board Books, envelopes and 117173 Island Oasis Designer Series Paper.

The last project was made with the 118766 Briefcase On Board Books and 111546 Simple Birthday Thanks stamp.

(The black dots are from my camera.)

Note: We scored vellum cardstock and attached with a gluestick to give the frosty look.

Thank you Terri for the wonderful projects!
