Charming

Here's a card that I made the other day to send to a customer.  It's really easy to put together, and you can use all kind of different color combinations.  I popped each of the circles up with a Stampin' Dimensional.  Here are the supplies that I used: 

Stamps:  Charming, Perfectly Penned
Paper:  Textured Whisper White, Smooth Whisper White
Ink:  Island Indigo, Calypso Coral, Lucky Limeade
Other: Basic Rhinestones, 1-1/4" circle punch, Stampin' Dimensionals

Tea Shoppe

This is a card that Shelli Gardner, co-founder and CEO of Stampin' Up! demonstrated on stage at the Leadership Conference.  She used the stamp set "Tea Shoppe".  Notice she used the adorning accents embossing folder for the scallops on the bottom of the card.

Nature Walk

This is another card that I received at the Louisville regional. 

She used the stamp set - "NATURE WALK" - #121997 on page 100 in the catalog.

She used concord grape, more mustard, very vanilla, and newsprint to make this card.

Spice Cake - 4

I used the Spice Cake designer paper to make one of the famous rosettes or lollies.  I cut the designer paper at 1-1/4" x 12" and scored it every 1/4".  The easel part of the card was cut 4-1/4" x 11" scoring at 2" and 5-1/2".  Here is the card looking from the side.

Spice Cake - 1

Throught this week I would like to share with you several cards that I made using the Spice Cake designer paper (located on pg. 17 in the Holiday Mini Catalog - #124003 with the price of $10.95).  This card I started out with Crumb Cake card stock cut at 4-1/4" x 11", score at 5-1/2".  Each strip of designer paper measures 1" x 4-1/4".  I punched out 3 scallop circles from the same designer paper, crumbled them up and layed them on top of each other.  I added a button in the center with a mini glue dot.

SUPPLIES
Stamps:  Curly Cute
Paper:  Crumb Cake, Spice Cake Designer Paper

Other:  Scallop Circle, Very Vanilla Seam Binding, Button, Linen Thread, Mini Glue Dot

Elements of Style

This card was inspired by Linda Heller (Stamping School).  I used the "new" DESIGNER FRAMES with the Big Shot to create the window behind the big butterfly.  The butterflies were cut out using the BEAUTIFUL WINGS embosslit and the Big Shot.

Leaves of a Tree

Here is another card that I made for a swap last month.  I used one of the A la Carte stamps from the Holiday Mini Catalog - LEAVES OF A TREE.  It's one of the single stamps that we sell.

Leaves of a Tree (#123843) - $9.95

I inked the tree in Cajun Craze and used the edge of the Early Espresso stamp pad to add a little bit of accent.  I then put the Cajun Craze marker in the color spritzer to put the specks around the edges.  I used the Scallop Squares Duo with the Big Shot to add the scallop border.
