Stamping Fun with Wilma...

Define Your Life

This card was created by Jamilla Ivits (miss you girl!).  The photo does not make justice to her card and it is much prettier IRL.  For whatever reason, I could not get a better photo :(

Jamilla used Craft ink to stamp the leaves from Stampin' Up! Embrace Life stamp set on Basic Black card stock, then mounted it on Whisper White.  She added a touch of red (very classy!) with the 1/4" grosgrain ribbon and with the card stock in Real REd for the background for the saying.  The saying is also stamped in Real Red.

Beautiful card Jamilla!  Hope to see you soon!

Cheers!  :o)

Just Buzzin' by...

Good Morning and good Monday!!!!

Here is a very nice card I got from one of my swaps!  In fact, it is a "surprise Pop Up : card, but I could not figure out how to take a picture to show you. So... I will try to come up with a tutorial and post it for you! (when???  eventually... ;-)... It was created by Elizabeth Green.  Elizabeth used Stampin' Up! Just Buzzin' by stamp set (one that I love and do not use as often as I would like to...).  She coloured the image with Aqua Painter and cut the bee out and used a dimensional to pop her up. Lots of glitter on the wings which is quite shine IRL!  When you pull the ribbon, the message comes up.

I loved your card Elizabeth!  Thanks for such a beautiful card!

Have a great week everybody!  :o)

Animals Crackers

A cute one for Friday...

This card was created by Nicola Gauntley. Nicola used Stampin' Up! Animal Crackers stamp set to make this baby card.  She used the scallop edge punch to create the scalopped square in Barely Banana, and the Designer Label punch to add the saying.  She coloured the images with blender pens and added a brad and taffeta ribbon for an extra touch.

Lovely card!

Wishing you a great weekend!  See you Monday! :o)

A Flower for All Seasons

Another swap card; this one from Ruth Baker.  Ruth used Stampin' Up! A Flower for All Seasons stamp set as a focal point and added fall colours to add charm to her card.  The saying comes from the Curvy Verses set; card stock: Chocolate Chip, Summer Sun, and Pumpkin Pie.  She coloured the image witAqua Painter and Classic inks.

Very nice Ruth!  Thanks for sharing!  :p

Pun Fun

This card I got from another swap a little time ago - that's why it has the old In-Colors.  I thought that even though it has the old In-Colors, it was worth sharing it with you because it is a beautiful card.  Unfortunately, the lady who created it did not put her name on it :(

The lady used Stampin' Up! Pun Fun set (one of my favourites because it is so versatile!).  She heated embossed the cup, then coloured it, and added Iridescent Ice embossing powder.  It gave a fantastic touch to the card!  Of course, she did not stop there!  She paper pierced the Blue Bayou card stock, added grosgrain ribbon, used the Trio Flower and the Spiral punches, AND stamped the Red Hiding Hood card stock with the swirls form the Priceless set.

Great job!  Too bad I cannot give you credit because I do not know who you are :(

I hope you enjoy it!

Dreams du Jour

Good Monday Ladies and Gentlemen!

I hope you enjoyed your weekend!

Here is a card I created for my GNO class.  I needed something quick and simple as we had other cards that took more time to complete.

I love these colours and the Dreams du Jour stamp set seems to go beautifully with them.  I sued DSP Razzleberry Lemonade on Melon Mambo and added the new ribbon in Rich Razzleberry.  Do add an extra touch, I stamped and cut out the butterfly.  Adhere it with a stampin' dimensional and then added glitter to it.  It is simply, but if I can say myself, it is a pretty card! ;-)

Have a great week and I will see you tomorrow!  =^.^=

Birthday Bliss

Happy Friday Everyone!!!  Phew!  This week was too long!!!! Too much to do and not much time for stamping! ;-)

This card was made by Samantha Forest, one of my fellow demonstrators.  Sam used two of the new In-Colors: Melon Mambo and Bermuda Bay with our classic Chocolate Chip to make this beautiful card!

It is hard to see in the photo, but Sam used the Big Shot Texturz Plate background 1 to add texture and dimension to her card.  Sam colored the image with blender pens (can't live without them!).  Accessories: Flower Fusion, brad, and grosgrain ribbon in Chocolate Chip.  Punch: 1 1/4 inch square punch.

Thanks for sharing Sam!

Have a great weekend and I will see you on Monday!  :o)

Teeny Tiny Wishes

Another beautiful card by my Kewl fellow demonstrator Julie Leblanc.  Julie used several Stampin' Up! products to create this card: Baroque Motif and Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp sets, Modern Label and Eyelet Border punches, Big shot Texturz Plates Backgrounds 1, and Movers and Shapers with punch window (I still have to get one of these!!!!).  Now, note that Julie used clear window to emphasized the saying - loved the touch Jules!  Last but not least, Julie used the new In-Colors in Crushed Curry andDusty Durango.

Can't hardly wait to get another card of yours Jules!

Later! :o)

Look Who's Turning

This cute card was also made for a swap and the creator is Jennifer Gorman.  Jennifer also used a new stamp set from the new Stampin' Up! catalogue: Look who's Turning.To add interest to the card, Jennifer used Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper (DSP) Tall Tales.  The colours used are: Soft Suede, Crushed Curry, and Dusty Durango.  I just love the name of the new In-Colors!

Thanks for sharing Jennifer!

Have a great day!

Circle Circus

Hello Again!

This card was created by my fellow demonstrator Sandra Panio.  She made this one for one of our swaps.  I loved the way Sandra combined the colours for this card! She used Melon Mambo and Basic Black to stamp one of our new Stampin' Up! set Circle Circus.  To embellish the card, Sandra added grosgrain Basic Black ribbon and used three of Stampin' Up! punches (i.e., Wide Oval, Large Oval, and scallop oval) for the saying.

Great card Sandra!  Thanks for sharing!  :o)
