Stamp Club Projects

The Fall/Winter 2008 round of Stamp Clubs has begun. The Saturday group met and had a great time making the projects, getting to know each other and looking at all the new Stampin' Up! stuff. Thanks, Julia for bringing the cookies. Yum! The Thursday group will meet next week. Both groups are full so if you're thinking of joining a Stamp Club let me know. The next round will be groups of 6 that will meet for 6 months and will begin in February 2009 with the next Stampin' Up!Spring/Summer '09 Idea Book & Catalog.

Here are the two projects for the first meeting.


Stamps: Upsy Daisy (15% off through Sept 30th)

Ink: Real Red, Tangerine Tango, Pink Pirouette

Cardstock: Pink Pirouette, Real Red, Whisper White

Other: Bella Rose DSP, Scallop edge punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, Piercer and mat from Tool Kit, Filgree Brad, daubers.

The color on the flowers is created with a coloring technique using ink pads and daubers that I saw at the Stampin' Up! convention.

Here is a close up of the new Filgree Brad and the scallop edge made with the new scallop edge punch. I love the new scallop edge punch and these new brads are wonderful!

The second card is made with the bleaching technique to create the white images in the background. I got the idea for this card from the card on the bottom of page 91 in the Stampin' Up! Fall/Winter 08 Idea Book & Catalog.

Stamps: Eastern Blooms (15% off through Sept. 30th), Canvas

Ink: Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze, Pink Pirouette

Cardstock: Baja Breeze, Whisper White, Old Olive

Other: Bella Rose DSP, Pink Gingham ribbon, Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware, Scallop Edge punch, Trio Flower punch, mini glue dots, bleach.

Blessings,

Things are finally setting down - at least for the time being - so it's back to stamping! Here is one of the swaps I took to the Stampin' Up! Convention. I came back with lots of wonderful new samples for my display boards! You can access the recipe for this card on my Stampin' Up! website by clicking here.

Enjoy,
