Hello, everyone! Happy Friday! I guess I should say happy Saturday. It was a busy day and I never got around to post this. I made this "thank yous" for my sister. She want something unisex and that is hard to do as most of my stamps are flowers. She loved this one so I'm making them for her.
Happy Thursday, everyone! Rainy day here in Vancouver but I like it that I get to stay home where it is warm inside. More reason to do some stamping.
A friend asked me to make a box cover for her. She made four clips for the table for a friend of hers. I'm not what they are called but you clip them to the four corners of the table to make your table look nice. She had the box bottom but needed the top. At first she wanted me to make an acetate top but I don't have any acetate. So I made a paper top instead.
Hello, everyone! Here is a Christmas card for you. Very simple one. I use the Perfect Polka Dots Impression Folder for the background and the sentiment is from the Scenic Season stamp set. The Christmas ornament is from the Delightful Decorations stamp set. I like this ornament the most from this stamp set and use it a lot.
Wow! I can't believe there are only 8 weeks till Christmas and I'm finally making my first Christmas card this year. I'm so behind this year. Anyway, here is a Christmas card for you. I used the Northern Hearts hostess stamp set and the Jolly Holiday Designer Series Paper to make this card. The sentiment is from the All Holidays stamp set. Gotta go and make more Christmas cards.
I bought the center piece from Superstore (a Canadian supermarket).
I spread all the leaves on the table and I made pumpkins too to go on the table.
Here a close up of the pumpkins. Each pumpkin has 12 scallop circles or scallop ovals. I sponge each and everyone of them. It took me a long time to punch, glue and sponge all these pumpkins. I glad it is over. All the ladies loved the decorations. They were over joy when I let them take everything home. They literally took everything. Except the center piece that belongs to the church.
Hello, everyone! Happy Friday! Today is a very busy day for me. I'm babysitting and after that I'll be going to a Nursery Meeting at night. So what's all those things in the above picture? They are cutlery holders. This was what I was talking about for the pass few days.
I made these to decorate for the Nursery Meeting. I made the pattern to hold a fork, a knife and a spoon. What do you think? You like? I love this holder!
Here is how it looks like with the cutlery in it.
Here is a close up of the front of the holder. The leaves are die cut. I sponged the leaves in Chocolate Chip ink and my fingers looked all brown after I don't know how many leaves I sponged. I made leaves to go on the table also so I'll show you that tomorrow.
Here another fall card. I used the French Foliage stamp set again. The leaf on the top left is a die cut leaf. I cut a lot of this leaf for the decorations for tomorrow's meeting at our church. Come back tomorrow and I'll show you what I made for the decoration.
Here is a card inspired by all those beautiful fall leaves. This is a new stamp set called French Foliage from the Holiday Mini Catalogue. There are wonderful new stamp sets in there I must have. Not so crazy for the Halloween stuff. I love the the Designer Fabric Stampin'Up! is selling. I love fabrics. I used to sew a lot and make tons and tons of outfit. Now you have to have lots of money to sew. It is so much cheaper to buy clothing than sew them. Sigh!
Hello, everyone! Happy Monday! I was busy this weekend moving all my stamping stuff downstairs to the living room. We separated the girls from my son so now he have his own room. That means I have to move out of one of the bedroom I used for stamping before.
A sour cream container with a little bag of Mott's Fruit Sensation inside.
Happy Wednesday, everyone! It is starting to feel like summer here in Vancouver. Very hot today but I'm not complaining.
I made this card for a friend back in May. She wanted a few of some baby cards to have on hand to give away when a baby is born. I made her different ones so she doesn't have to give the same style card to different baby.
Happy Tuesday, everyone! Here is a card I made using the Tropical Party stamp set. I got this set since it was available to buy and it was sitting there waiting for me to ink it up.
I embossed the background paper using the Square Lattice Textured Impression Embossing Folder. The scallop behind the sentiment is the new 2-3/8" Scallop Circle Extra-Large punch. Love it! The only problem is that my 1-3/4" Circle punch is broken. I have to get another one if I want to make cards with this new scallop punch. Another item add to my ever growing wish list.
Here is the invitation I made for my sister. It is the same one in the 2009-2010 catalogue. The catalogue doesn't show the outside of the invite so I made up my own look. What do you think? Beautiful isn't it?
Here is the inside of the invitation. I changed it a little where the RSVP holder is and the top of the invites. I also coloured in the flowers on the invites with a sponge dauber.
Here is a closer view of the RSVP card holder.
Happy Tuesday, everyone! I was going to write Monday instead. I had a stat holiday on Monday and now my days are mix up.
This card is almost one layer card but I can't seem have no layers on my card. I did the faux tearing technique for this card. The Watercolor Trio stamp set is perfect to make this kind of card. No colouring involve. My favourite kind of set.
Hello, everyone! Happy Friday! It is our civic holiday long weekend this week. We are not going anywhere or doing anything special for this long weekend because DH have to fly to Calgary for a funeral. I'm hoping I'll have a chance to make more cards to show you.
Aren't these flowers beautiful? I love them but not sure what kind of flower it is. This stamp is from the Elements of Style stamp set from the Summer Mini. I add some Dazzling Diamonds on a flower where the sentiment is. Can't really see it that well. It is kinda blurry. My camera lens is broken. It doesn't do auto focus anymore so I have to focus the picture manually. You can tell I'm not to good at focusing it manually.
Happy Thursday! Ice cream anyone? I love ice cream. This is a new Sweet Scoop stamp set from the Summer Mini catalogue. What a fun stamp set to have especially for making birthday cards. Kids will love it when you give them an ice cream hand stamped birthday card. I know my kids will cause they love to eat ice cream so much. Always ask for ice cream when we go out and after supper.
Thank you for stopping by!
