IDEAS Blog Hop: Family Celebrations

 

Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the September IDEAS Blog Hop! We are celebrating Family Celebrations this month. This can be a multitude of things to different people. It can be birthdays, or specific holidays, or special occasions or events within your family or culture. It may even be just a backyard BBQ!

This graphic is a sneak peek at the some of the projects into our September IDEAS Tutorial Bundle:

Unfortunately, I didn't have time to make an alternate project, so here is another sneak peek at one of my bundle projects. I used the Frames & Flowers Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. The pack comes with DSP and die cut designs. These packs make creating soooo easy! 

Look at all this goodness:

Each tutorial designer features at least one card or one 3D project, some include multiple projects. Each tutorial includes color photos, a supply list, and written instructions with both imperial and metric measurements. 

 There are 11 designers this month, over 35 pages, and over 15 projects with some alternate ideas! Would you like a copy of the tutorials for these projects for your personal use, or even to use in your classes? Contact your member demonstrator or me.  There are three options to acquire our IDEAS tutorial bundle:

1. Place a $35 order with my online host code: GUAAT292 or click here. 

2. It is free for all of my team members, join here.

3. Purchase it for $15 USD.

Once you have received the tutorials, please remember not to share or distribute the printed or electronic copies of these bundles. We have worked hard to provide these exclusive projects for your use. If you know someone that would like to purchase the bundle, please direct them to me to obtain their copy. Thanks for your support!

Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop: Time for Cake

Hello friends, and hopefully, fellow Paper Pumpkin subscribers. We are playing with the August kit, Time for Cake. As you can imagine, it is birthday themed! 

While I love most kits as planned by Stampin' Up! it is always fun to see what other things can be done with each kit. So, grab a cuppa' and let's see what everyone has come up with this month. 

I try to focus my cards on the stamps, cuz once the kit is all made up, that is what you have left!  I love the stamps that come with it! Great little images and the sentiments... Love the mixed font of "Make a Wish, "the little "celebrate" and the "lost count" stamps! And the cute little candles and balloons, make these stamps ones I will use again!

I did use part of a kit card front and the inside of an envelope for my card. Added some Wink of Stella and some rhinestones to complete it, cuz a little bling is always good!

Here is a close up of the candles, though you still cannot see the bling. I hope you are inspired to create your kit now, or possibly something new.

Let's hop on over to the next blog to see what creation they have. Leave a little love, via the comments, if you see something you like. Follow along on the list below.

Until next time...

Happy Craftin'!

ICS Blog Hop: Whale Done

 

Hello, and welcome to the May Inspire, Create, & Share Blog Hop! We are glad you are hopping with us.

 

This month, our theme is "It's a Guy Thing." I don’t have many masculine sets, but I consider the Whale Done Stamp Set a masculine set. Especially the stamp that says, “You’re Kind of a Big Deal.” It just seems like a saying that any guy would like to hear!

Here is my card:

I used the punch for the whale, cuz I really wanted it to be an Orca. They seem like a bigger deal than just regular whales to me...lol! I stamped the seaweed across the bottom, and used the birthday sentiment from the Hey Birthday Chick stamp set.  

I cut out a window in the Basic White cardstock, using the Hippo & Friends Dies, and put a piece of the Sea & Sand Designer Series Paper behind the window to resemble the ocean. That is such beautiful paper, better get it while you can, as it will retire at the end of June. 

Inside, I used the Big Deal saying. It fit perfectly! Do you have any "Big Deals" in your life? Father's Day is coming, and all you have to do is change the front sentiment to make the guy in your life feel like he is something special!

Hope you like my card. Please leave a comment if you do! Now, join me as we hop on over to Deb's blog to see what manly creation she has to share with us!

Until next time....

Happy Craftin'!

IDEAS Blog Hop: Hey Birthday Chick

 

Hello crafters! 

I'm so excited to share our February IDEAS Blog Hop with you today. We are featuring Fun-Folds for our theme this month! This month's tutorial contains 13 Fun-Folds created by Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the world! It is almost 60 pages of crafting heaven! 

This graphic is a sneak peek at the some of the projects in our Feburary IDEAS Tutorial Bundle:

So, while my actual tutorial designs are secret and exclusively shared in the bundle, I have another project made using the same stamp set that I used on my tutorial projects to share with you. Consider it a bonus project!

Yes, I used those cute Hey Birthday Chick, chickens!! If you loved the original Hey Chick stamp set from Sale A Bration several years ago...you will love this one even more. Same chickens, just partying now!!! They are so happy!!

I also love the Sweet Ice Cream suite, and just had to join these two. I gave the dancing chicken an ice cream cone, and popped her up on a wobble! I love that she gets to move around!!

ICS Blog Hop: High Tides

So glad you could join is on the May Inspire, Create, & Share Blog Hop! We are happy to be sharing some fun projects with you. Hopefully, we can inspire you and get you in your craft rooms to stamp something new!

May's theme is, "it’s a Guy Thing in Black and White." It was to be a masculine project and we can only use black and white.  I was a little apprehensive, with the color limitations, but think it came together rather well. I chose to use the High Tide Stamp Set and originally thought I would use the coordinating dies. However, once I got rolling, I didn't need them.

I also planned on using the light house, but as you can see, that didn't happen either...

I was pleased with how it turned out. I created it while on a Zoom call with my crafting friends, so did get a little input from them too! Hope you enjoy it!

The very talented Anastasia is up next, leave me a comment, and then join me as I check out what masterpiece she has for us!! Don't forget to keep hopping to see all the fabulous projects!

Until next time...Happy Craftin'!
