Another Moonlight Stamp-a-Stack Card

Here's another card we'll be making at the Stamp-a-Stack on Saturday.

The stamp is from Starburst Sayings and was cut out using my Big Shot and the Starburst framelits.

I really love this Moonlight Designer Series Paper Stack. The designs and the colors are fantastic!

Here's a photo of all the cards we'll be making Saturday.

You can see details about the class here. Contact me if you want one of the remaining spots.

Happy National Scrapbooking Day!

Today is National Scrapbooking Day, so I made some scrapbook pages. I only got one photographed before it got too late so I'll have to share more later in the week.

This Designer Series Paper (DSP) is from Epic Day. They are kind of hard to see in these photos, but the background is a bunch of words. They say things like courageous, happy, insightful, honest, bold, strong, delightful, independent... The words made me think of my daughters, so I had to make a scrapbook page with them on it.

 The title and the words along the left side are from the retiring set, Loving Thoughts. I tried to leave lots of space so I didn't cover the words on the DSP. Instead of making a tag with the date on it, I used the Remember This Rotary Stamp to stamp, "This happened on..." Because of the way the rotary stamp works, I was able to set the date to day these pictures were taken.

This photo was taken at an angle to make my girls look even taller than they are! :) Actually, I thought it would show how I used Stampin' Dimensionals to pop up the title and the other word stamp between the Pool Party and River Rock layers. I also popped up the starburst.

 I love this stamp from Starburst sayings - You make the world a better place. It definitely applies to my girls. I also love that there are matching framelits so I can use the Big Shot to cut it out.

 It's kind of blurry, but this is the little piece above the date. The stamp is from the retired Sale-a-Bration set, Sprinkled Expressions, and says - Love you just the way you are. This close-up shows how I used my distressing tool to distress the edges.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Hope you got a change to do some scrapping today!

And, as promised, here are the other two cards based on this week's sketch. For this one, I rotated the sketch so it is landscape instead of portrait. The DSP is Epic Day. Stamp is from Just Sayin' and is cut with the coordinating Word Bubbles framelits.

On this card, I left a border between each of the strips. DSP is Epic Day. Stamp is from Starburst Sayings and is cut with the coordinating Starburst framelits.

Sale-a-Bration ends 3/31

Sale-a-Bration (SAB) ends tomorrow (Monday, 3/31)! Get your exclusive SAB items before they're gone!

Here are a couple of cards I made featuring Sale-a-Bration items.  The top card has the following SAB items: Banner Blast, Banner Punch, Summer Starfruit Baker's Twine (from Sweet Sorbet Accessory Pack). The other stamp is from Starburst Sayings and is cut out with the Starburst Framelits. The banner holders were punched with one of the punches from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack.

This card is a CASE, but I've seen so many versions that I don't know who to give credit to. SAB items on this card: Banner Punch and See Ya Later. Other products: Circles Framelits, Word Bubbles Framelits.

TSSC 299 -

Here is this week's Techno Stamper Sketch Challenge sample:

I ended up switching it around quite a bit, but I did start with the sketch in mind.  Just goes to show - you never know where your inspiration will lead you.

The sentiment on the front of this card is from Starburst Sayings, which is in the new Occasions Catalog.  It started out round, but I cut out the words so I could use them on the banner.  The middle section is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.  The globe is from Open Sea.  For the banners, I cut my cardstock, stamped it with the World Map stamp, and then punched it with the Banner Punch that you can get for free during Sale-a-Bration (SAB).

Here is this week's sketch:

Head to the TSSC website to see the rest of the design team samples.  Then use the sketch to inspire your creation and link it at the bottom of the TSSC post.

The World Is Better Because of You!

Here's one of the cards we'll be making at my upcoming classes (Jan. 28 and 29 - see here for details).  I know I can always use another masculine card.  I'll bet you can, too.

 

The background is the World Map stamp set, which is in the Annual Catalog.  The focal point is from Starburst Sayings, which I got in a bundle with the Starburst Framelits.  They are available in the new 2014 Occasions Catalog.

 

Colors are Whisper White, Soft Suede, and Night of Navy.

 

There's still room in both classes, but they are filling quickly.  Contact me today to reserve your spot!
