Frosty Day Sample

This is one of the cards that we made at my monthly club meeting last Friday. I used the Frosty Day Designer Series paper. I also used the Scallop Edge punch to create the square focal. It is really easy and you can view the tutorial on SplitCoastStampers. You use a 2 3/4 x 2 3/4 piece of cardstock and line it up evenly on the punch and then punch each side. I love the diversity that it gives the punch.

Recipe:

Stamps: Season of Joy, Punch Pals
Ink: Tangerine Tango, Chocolate Chip
C/S: Tangerine Tango, Close to Cocoa, Old Olive, Frosty Days Designer Series paper
Accessories: Scallop Edge Punch, Build-a-Brad, Striped Tangerine Tango Ribbon, Scallop Punch, Dimensionals

Suede Paper Tulipe

This card was made using the Suede Paper that I had purchased for a Big Shot materials swap. The paper is very rich and feels, well, like suede. It cuts very easily and has a nice look, although it is hard to see on the card. I stamped "cherish" using Basic Brown, it came out a little lighter than I would have liked, but it works. I showed the card at Patty Bennett's Stamp-a-Rama and she wondered if you could use the iron to transfer a stamped image. I will try that and let you know. In the meantime, enjoy this one!

Pink Suede Paper Snowflake

I participated in a Big Shot materials swap. My chosen material was suede paper. The snowflake on this card is this material. It is very soft to the touch and feels like velvet. Very pretty to work with. I was able to cut two pieces at once with my Big Shot and think that I could have gone one more. I can't wait to see all the other cool materials once I get the swap stuff in. Hoping for some good ideas. Enjoy!

Another Tart and Tangy

We saw a variation to this card done a regionals in Oakland by Jena Haux and then this card was done at our Luv2Stamp group meeting in April, also done by Jena. This is a really fun little card. The Bashful Blue piece flips up so that you can put a sentiment inside. I will be doing a variation of this card for club in the next few months.
