Club Cards

Well, once again, I don't know where the time goes!!! We really don't have that many activities on the calendar, but I think between working & keeping up around here, time just gets away. I'm hoping for a quiet week this week so maybe I can get some stamping done!! But I'm not betting on it!

We had club last Thursday-it was good to see all the ladies!!. I always appreciate having a reason to stamp-it's much easier to make it a priority!!

Here is the first card using the new Upsy Daisy set. Remember it's one of the ones on the 15% off NEW SETS special!! This is a GREAT set with LOTS of possibility!!

I used my Big Shot to cut the Top Note out of Confetti Cream Cardstock. We them stamped the flower image in Versamark and applied Old Olive & Summer Sun Pastels using sponge daubers. We added the verse at the top of the Note and applied Old Olive Pastel. The ribbon is the new Kiwi Kiss/Very Vanilla Satin. Yep-reversible-HOW COOL!!! This is just a knotted ribbon. Start your knot slowly with the Vanilla side out. As you start to tighten the knot, turn the tabs to Kiwi!!

Next was this card using the Inspired by Nature set. Card base and background layer is Riding Hood Red, Neutral is Naturals Ivory. We applied ink to the stamp with sponge daubers. Start with Kiwi Kiss for the stem, Riding Hood Red for the flowers, Chocolate Chip for the flower center. Huff & stamp! With a bod image stamp like this one, you may want to ink once or twice and stamp on scratch paper. It sometimes takes several inkings to get the best look! But the result on this card is very soft and pretty! Another set with LOTS of possibilities!!

Lastly, we did this card using the Say it With Scallops set that UPS was SOOO kind to give all us demos who attended convention!! It is the current Ronald McDonald House Charities set. For each set purchased-$2 goes to the Charity! As of catalog date, SU! had contributed almost $700,000!

On the card, we stamped the 'hi" image in Tangerine Tango on Whisper White and punched it with the new Square Scallop punch. You have to have the punch with this set!! Card base layer is So Saffron, followed by a Tangerine Tango layer. Background paper in coordinating colors is from the Haiku DSP. We tied the new In Color ribbon-5/8" striped grosgrain-in Tangerine Tango around the DSP layer, and added the layered squares with dimensionsals. Quick and Easy!!
