Simple Saturday!

  Hello!!
Today I'm sharing a quick & simple card I made with some left over pieces on my counter.

What a fun card huh!

I just love this 'Press On' stamp set!

 

How did I I do that?

Did you notice how I made the piece that the words are stamped onto- smaller?

#1.  Punch out scalloped rectangle, using the Rectangle Postage Stamp Punch.

#2.  I lightly attached it to a scrap strip of card stock, so that I had a "handle" to hang on it.

#3.  Slide it into the top side of the punch & line up the grooved notches & PUNCH again to make smaller.

#4.  This is what you get.  2 thinner pieces to use!!  Neat huh!

And I combined it with the Poppy Parade DSP that 

is in the Trimming The Town DSP pack.

but I think that this stamp set is totally adorable & totally me.

Notice how I stamped the coffee beans in the background, doing a 

tone on tone look with Crumb Cake card stock & Crumb Cake ink. 

Check out how I used the Rectangle Postage Stamp Punch in 2 different ways!

It is the normal (regular punch) size with the coffee cups.

so that I could hang onto it) & punched it again to make it narrower.

Simple Saturday with Stampin' Up! Merry Moose

Today is simple Saturday!! 

And LOOK at this AWESOME NEW Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder!

Oh my gosh- I LOVE IT! 

I used this as my main background......

and then added just a couple of trees, the moose & some words.

This is a super simple card for me, but I really like it!

It sure makes a great all occasion guy card!

 

NOTICE how I got 2 colors of trees, using just one ink pad!

To stamp the trees like this, I stamped the one on the left full strength

and then DO NOT RE-INK your stamp- just stamp the tree again. 

This will give you a lighter shad for the other tree.

This technique is called shadow stamping.

You can't tell by the photos very well, but I did add Wink of Stella 

to the 2 evergreen trees that are in the circle.  

You can never go wrong with a little sparkle!

stamp set:  'Lots to Celebrate' (words); 'Merry Moose'

Starburst Fall card

 

Here is a fun fall card!

 

I haven't done a starburst card for a long time.....so I "played" when making this fall card!

I used some DSP & I also stamped some card stock leave images too!

For the stamped leaf images, I used my 'Lots to Celebrate' stamp set.

How did I do it?

• I took 2 pieces of DSP that measured 1 1/2 x 4" each.
• I laid them in my paper cutter, at opposite diagonals- like shown above & cut them both at the same time.
• I then took 2 pieces of Cajun Craze cardstock that also measured 1 1/2 x 4" each
• I stamped leaves on them (from my 'Lots to Celebrate') stamp set.  
• I laid them in my paper cutter, at opposite diagonals- like shown above with the DSP & cut them both at the same time.
• I then added them to a piece of 3 3/4 x 5" Very Vanilla card stock. 
• I started by marking the top edge of the card stock at 2 1/2" for the center of the card.  This is where I butted up the 2 different center strips to start the starburst.
• I added the other strips then to completely cover this 3 3/4 x 5" Very Vanilla card stock. 

•  This is what it looked like when I got all of the diagonal strips adhered.

• I turned it over & used my scissors to trip off the edges, all of the way around it.

stamp set:  'Beautiful Autumn'

card stock:

• Early Espresso- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 4 1/4"- fold in half for card base; 5 x 1/4"
  
• Cajun Craze-4 x 5 1/4"; 1 1/2 x 4"- cut at diagonal; 1 1/2 x 4"- cut at diagonal
• Very Vanilla- 3 3/4 x 5"- adhere the diagonals to this; 1 1/2" strip- stamp words onto & die cut out with Tasteful Label Dies; 5 x 1/2"; 4 x 5 1/4"- for inside of card

Lots to Celebrate- a Halloween card!

 

 Halloween is one of my favorite holidays to create cards, treats & home decor for!

So I had lots of fun making this.

 

I used the jar image from my 'Lots to Celebrate' stamp set & made this super cute Halloween card!

They are from the 'Festive Corners' stamp set!

What great "All Occasions" stamp set both of these stamp sets are!

Don't these spiders work great for hanging in this jar!

 

Notice how I stamped the spiders upside down to get a longer 'string' on them.

This way they could be different lengths.
