Blossom Punch Embellishments

I've been playing with the Stampin' Up! Blossom punch again. This time I am making a bunch of blossoms that can be used in scrapbooks or on cards. These are quite quick to make.

Spring isn't too far away...I am pulling out my spring colors and making pretty spring projects. Are you ready for spring yet? Check out the Stampin' Up! Spring Catalog. It will inspire you!

Patterned Occasions Gift Tags

I made these gift tags with the Patterned Occasions stamp set.

These little gift tags are ready to be tied to gifts/gift bags with a pretty piece of ribbon.

Quick and easy, you can make a bunch of little tags in no time at all.

Have a crafty day,

Vintage Verse Greeting Card

This is the Stampin' Up! card I made for the Paper Players Challenge. Here is the sketch that they are using. If you would like to see more card samples using this layout, you should visit their site.

I used paper from the Sale-a-bration paper pack that you can get for free by placing a $50.00 order. It is one of 10 designs.

The heart that I used for the main image is from the Stampin' Up! set, You Are Loved and the sentiment is from the Stampin' Up! Sale-a-bration set Vintage Verses.

Freshly Made Sketches Challenge Entry

Here's my entry for this week's Freshly Made Sketches Challenge. I changed the orientation.

I used the new Stampin' Up! Bitty Butterfly punch to punch the little butterflies. Aren't they cute?

Everything Eleanor Thank You Card

I've been wanting to try making something with Stampin' Up!s new filter paper. So today I got my fingers inky, used the blossom punch to cut out some filter paper flowers and created this card for Pals Paper Arts challenge 151. Here's this week's sketch.

The label I used was stamped from Everything Eleanor, then I stamped the swirl from the same set. It is another beautiful set from Stampin' Up!.

Should have used some gloves. I had some within reach! Now I have Pacific Point and Not Quite Navy pinkies!

Oh, Hello! Fancy Fold Card

This is my entry for the Sunday Stamps weekly challenge. This week the challenge is to use Pumpkin Pie, Midnight Muse and Raspberry Ripple, three Stampin' Up! colors, together in a card.

I used the OH, HELLO stamp set from the new Stampin' Up! spring catalog.

Thanks for stopping by,
Trude

Secret Garden Gift Set

Here's my new tutorial for January 2013.
I used the Secret Garden stamp set from Stampin' Up! for the flowers and the sentiments are from a stamp set that will be available during Sale-a-bration that starts on January 22nd and continues through March 22nd. The set is called Bloomin' Marvelous and it is going to be one of my favorites. The sayings fit perfectly in the Large Oval punch.

If you need a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, I would love to be your demonstrator!

Have a great day,

Trude

Oh, Whale! Greeting Card

Today's card is one that I created for this week's color challenge at the Paper Players.
I used the new stamp set Oh, Whale! from Stampin' Up!

Hearts a Flutter Pennant Card

Here's another card using Hearts a Flutter, one of the new Stampin' Up! stamp sets. I am getting quite a bit of mileage from this set! The elements look so simple and yet there are so many ways to combine them and use them.

I entered this card in the Freshly made challenge. Thought I would play along with some challenges to get the ideas flowing. Check back to see the future challenges that I enter and play along!

Hearts a Flutter Valentine Card

I call this my 3 Hearts Valentine. I made it with the Hearts a Flutter stamp set by Stampin' Up! It's one of the NEW sets in the NEW Spring Mini Catalog.

The Happy Valentine's Day stamp is from Stampin Up's annual catalog. It is from the Wacky Wishes set which is a hostess set.

Use Very Vanilla card stock and Primrose Petals card stock for this card. The Very Vanilla works really well with the creamy color of the crochet trim.

Have a blessed day,
