Watercolor Beauty

The bright color combination of this card is sure to put anyone in a cheerful mood!  The watercolor image is from the two-step hostess level 2 Fast & Fabulous set.  For those of you who aren't familiar with "two-step", there are two separate stamps used to create the image, one is the outline and the other is the inside detail.  The sentiment is from Fabulous Phrases and it's punched out using the curly label punch. 

Mojo Monday Challenge - Week 173

We realize it's Wednesday; however, here is our entry for the Mojo Monday #173 Sketch Challenge 

This card combines the beautiful new Love Impressions Specialty DSP from the Occasions mini catalog with circle, heart, and curly label punched elements.  The sentiment is from the Grateful Greetings set.  The card is finished off with some 5/8" Real Red grosgrain ribbon and basic pearl jewels.

Another Card for Tanner

Here's another card in honor of Tanner's birthday yesterday (Kira did this one).  This one also uses the Celebrations DSP along with a stamp from the On Your Birthday set.  The sentiment was punched out with the curly label punch, then layered on a 2 3/8" scallop and 2 1/2" circle. 

12 Days 'til Christmas Countdown Wall Hanging

Kira designed this great 12 days until Christmas countdown wall hanging using the scallop envelope die, Tags 'til Christmas and Word Play stamp sets, Deck the Halls DSP, and a variety of other great products (punches, ribbon, and texture plates, oh my!). 

Give Thanks Scrapbook Pages

These are the other two pages that we'll be doing in our "Give Thanks" class on Sunday, 11/21.  These pages use LOTS of FUN STUFF...Autumn Spice Specialty DSP, Day of Gratitude and Grateful Greetings stamp sets, Tasteful Trim die, 2 1/2" circle punch, curly label punch, decorative label punch, 1" circle punch, and 5/8" Old Olive grosgrain ribbon.  The die-cut letters are not Stampin' Up, but are an Sizzlit strip die and cut with the Big Shot. 

6"x6" Christmas Scrapbook Pages

These awesome 6"x6" Christmas scrapbook pages use the Celebrations DSP and lots of other fun stuff like the Tags 'til Christmas, Word Play, and Grateful Greetings stamp sets.  A variety of punches were used for the images.  We MAY be scheduling a class to do these, so let us know if you like them, and we'll see if we can fit them in to our schedule.

Wicked Cool and Fun Halloween Card

This card uses the Wicked Cool stamp set and the Wicked Fun Designer Series Paper.  The great design idea came from fellow demonstrator Mary Brady.  The sentiment was punched out with the 1" circle punch, and is layered on multiple shapes: 1 1/4" circle, 1 3/8" circle, curly label, and the modern label.  It's finished off with some 1/4" Old Olive grosgrain ribbon and Basic Rhinestones.  The hats and stockings are colored in using an Old Olive Stampin Write Marker.
