More projects from Whimsical Impressions Team meeting!

As promised, here are a couple more projects swapped at my Whimsical Impressions demonstrator meeting last week! I just love getting together to trade projects, and learning new styles, new techniques, and new ideas! These ladies are awesome, too, and I wish you could meet them all! We have a great open relationship in our group, and everyone loves to share! Thanks to Erin who arrived early to help with the make & takes too! I appreciate that!

 

Made by Erin Enns, this card uses the Tart & Tangy stamp set, the Sock Monkey stamp set, the Summer Picnic paper, and the Scallop Circle Punch! All my favorite things! That cute ruffle along the middle is actually our white Taffeta Ribbon made into a ruffle! I will be showing this neat technique at my upcoming Big Shot Class on October 3rd, so be sure to register for that!

 

This pretty card, made by Debby Evoy, uses the Upsy Daisy stamp set, the Tangerine Tango striped grosgrain ribbon, and Holidays and Wishes stamp set, and Seasonal Icons stamp set. The colors are Tangerine Tango, Always Artichoke, Riding Hood Red, and Very Vanilla cardstock. It's hard to tell from the picture, but she also added 2 way glue, and dazzling diamonds glitter to all the flowers! So sparkly in real life! Beautiful card Debby!

Thanks for swapping ladies!

Gift Card Holder

Today, at my Fun Folds Class, we made this cute Gift Card holder out of a piece of 12X12 patterned paper. Unbelievably the project requires no adhesive (except for the decorations on the front), and it just uses folds. Very fun! We learned this fold at a Stampin' Up regional seminar in Vancouver a couple years ago. This particular one was designed by my good friend, Karina, who is also a demonstrator!  Thanks Karina! You rock! 

If you'd like the pattern for this, send me an email. (I can't quite figure out how to post that on here yet! I'm still learning :) )

Whatever you do....don't join my team!

Well, maybe the title is a little backwards. What I mean is.....don't join my team unless you want to be inspired like crazy! I held my Whimsical Impressions Team demonstrator meeting Tuesday night, and these ladies are amazing! I am constantly awed by the great class and club ideas they come up with! And the samples and demonstrations were awesome, as usual.

Actually, right now is the perfect time to join my team, because Stampin' Up is offering a special Demonstrator mini-starter kit for only $119. It is ideal for anyone who already has a good supply of Stampin' Up products, and doesn't need everything that comes in the $245 kit. You can also customize alot of it, and get all the business supplies you'll need.

Whether you just want to make some money for a short time, for the long term, be a full-blown business person, or just make a little to get some free stamping supplies, you can make it whatever you want. Contact me to get the online password to signup online from home, and have it shipped directly to your door! And, if that's not enough, demonstrators who join my team get all classes with me at HALF price! You want more? You'd get to come to any and all stamp club nights without placing any orders! More? How about more one-on-one time, more ideas, and more prizes from me! 

Here's are some of the samples from our meeting.

This one was made by Angela Boon. I love this card! Thanks Ang! 

   

Here's one made by Joanne Oszenaris.....so pretty.

 

I will post some more in the coming days........

Thanks Ladies, it was a fun evening!

If you want more information about becoming a demonstrator, you can go to my Demonstrator Business page, or email me. Join my team today, and see how much fun you can have, doing what you love!

Crafter's Flea Market fun!

This past weekend, I held a Crafter's Flea Market at my house. I had 5 other ladies sign up to sell some paper crafting supplies that they didn't need anymore. It was a fabulous sunny day, and lots of people showed up to get some great deals! Here are some pics of the event.....

 

......Tracy and Julia enjoying the sunshine.

There were more tables inside......This is my daughter, browsing the tables before we started!

What a great day! Thanks to everyone who came out to sell, and buy. It was a great success!

Happy Stampin'!

Ghosting card

  I showed this technique called "Ghosting" at my stamp club get-togethers last week, and just wanted to share the completed card with you.

To do this, you take a piece of vellum, and brayer ink over it (I used the new In-Color Pacific Point). Very quickly take a clean, dry, solid image stamp (this is Upsy Daisy) and stamp it onto the wet vellum. When you lift it off, it will pull the ink off with it, creating this pretty look. Then, let it dry. 

 For this card I added a layer of white cardstock behind (this technique shows up best if you layer it onto white), and then tied some of the new 1" Stitched Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon. Add a layer of Old Olive cardstock with some paper piercing along the top and bottom of it.  For the card base, I used Chocolate Chip cardstock.

I hope you like it!
