IDEAS Blog Hop: Hippiest Hippos Holiday

 

Thanks for joining us on the July IDEAS Blog Hop! The theme this month is "Holiday". Is it a summer or winter holiday, or a travel holiday? Everyone's interpretation is different! And since we are in the middle of another Sale A Bration (SAB) event, I used a lot of SAB items!  

 Here is a collage of some of the bundle projects:

This month's Tutorial Bundle has 70 pages, and includes 26 projects (cards and 3D items) from 13 Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from all over the world! All experience levels are included in the bundle, it definitely has something for everyone!

I don't share my projects here, cuz they are exclusive to the bundle, but.... here is a bonus project! I used the SAB Hippiest Hippos in my bundle projects, but also used the Rings of Love Designer Series Paper. I carried the DSP over to my bonus project, but used a carryover holiday set Peaceful Deer.

 Would you like a copy of the instructions for these projects to use for your personal use, or even to use in your classes? I offer 3 ways to either purchase, or even get the tutorial bundle for FREE!

1. Place a $35 order here with my online host code.

2. It is free for all of my direct 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.

Come with me as I hop on over to the awesome Odette's blog to see what she created using a Holiday theme!  

Until next time...
Happy Craftin'!!

ICS Blog Hop: Rectangle Postage Stamp

Hello!! The Inspire Create Share team have some projects to share with you that incorporate the wonderful line of punches that Stampin' Up! has to offer. So here is this month's offering for My Favorite Punch.

The Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch:

I used it along with my current favorite stamp set, Peaceful Deer, which also coordinates with a great punch. 

Ok, it is my favorite punch at this moment, but that could change on my next card, if I use a punch, that one could easily become my favorite! I love all of the Stampin' Up! punches, and it appears you do too, since they tend to go on backorder frequently. Stampin' Up! cannot always keep up with the demand for them! 

Don't forget inside your card and your envelopes to finish strong!

Hope you like my card! What is your favorite Stampin' Up! punch? Can you pick one, or is it like picking your favorite child? 

Thanks for stopping by. Please, join me as I hop on over to Terri's blog, to see which one is her favorite punch. Then go through the whole hop and see if you can spot a card using your favorite!

Creative Crafternoon - September week 2

 Hi friends!! I am late, but here is last weeks Creative Crafternoon project. I am using the Peaceful Deer bundle and Peaceful Prints Designer Series Paper.  I am also focusing on doing fun fold cards that use just a card base for the card, then of course decorating it. 

This fold, is a 4 1/4" x 11" piece of cardstock, with a 2 3/4" piece cut off the front and then turned to hold the focal point of the card. Click here if you want to watch the video. 

What do you think of the non traditional colors for Christmas cards? Like it, or not?

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Happy Craftin'!

Dutch Door Fold

 Hi friends! I started a new series on the Tuesday Creative Crafternoon's for September. Each week I will be using the Peaceful Deer Bundle and the FREE Peaceful Prints Designer Series Paper (DSP). 

Each week will be a different fun fold, but the key is only using a standard card base. This week I used a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Sahara Sand card base, but cut the top 1/2 of the card front off and used it for the layer behind the deer. You can watch the video here. 

Love this stamp set and punch! 

Ask me how you can get this DSP FREE too!! 

Until next time...

Happy Craftin'!

ICS Blog Hop - Be Dazzling

 

Thanks for joining us on the August Inspire, Create Share Blog Hop! Our theme this month is Sale A Brations! For the first time ever...Stampin' Up! is having a 2nd Sale A  Bration! Yay for us... I love FREE stuff, how about you?! 

I love, love, love the FREE Be Dazzling Specialty Paper. I love how it shimmers and shines. Someone compared it to a disco ball, and I have to agree!

I paired it with the Peaceful Deer set for this fun card. Not sure I would put Flirty Flamingo with Shaded Spruce on my own, but Stampin' Up! has some fun color combos they provide to us and this was one of them. I like to play with them, to get new ideas.

And don't forget the inside. I like a finished card, and it doesn't take much to do add a coordinating element and/or a sentiment inside your card to complete it. I really like how these colors work together, I am glad I gave them a chance.

Hope you like my card, and get some of the Be Dazzling Specialty Paper for yourself. Join me as I hop on over to my good friend, Janey's blog, to see what she is Sale A Brating!!
