Thank you - Fresh Cuts

This is a little Thank you card and envelope that I copied off another demonstrator I saw on YouTube, I promise to share her name with you later.  This Stamp set is one of my favorite and isn't available any longer.  Sorry.  We made 2 of these at the class I taught today.  It was so much fun.  By the way, you can use any stamp set that has flowers, leaves and a 'thank you' message.

You need the following supplies to make some of these cards:

Card Stock:  Daffodil Delight, Island Indigo and Whisper White
Ink Pads:  Daffodil Delight, Island Indigo
Accessories:  Simply Scored Scoring Tool  122334, Simpy Scored Place Markers 125625 and the new Simply Scored Scoring Diagonal Plate 125586, The Big Shot, Top Note Diez, Cutting Pads, Paper Snips 103579, Bone Folder 102300

The thing I love about this card is once you have your tools for making this card you can go back and recreate it over and over.  But that's what making your own cards is all about, isn't it?  So simple, too.

Please, leave a comment because I love feedback.

Have a lovely day,

Gayle

Cheerful Treat - 'happy birthday'

Here's a card that I made up for my class tomorrow.  It's made with Designer Series Paper that was called "Cheerful Treat" which is a hostess gift choice from our current catalog.  If you want to earn  a package for free have your own catalog party and get it before it goes away.  I was surfing the internet and found this idea on YouTube.  I will have to go back and add the name of the demonstrator later.  It's a pocket card.  It is meant to be given to the recipient in person instead of being mailed.

Stamp Set:  Teeny Tiny Wishes 115370
Card Stock:  Cheerful Treat DSP, Melon Mambo 115320, Bashful Blue 105120, Natural Whites 102316 and Whisper White 100730
Ink:  Concord Crush (In Color, soon to be unavailable).
Accessories:  Decorative Label 120907, Small Oval (unavailable), Ticket Corner 119867 (soon to be unavailable), Boho Blossoms (unavailable), White Satin Ribbon 114616, Basic Pearls 119247, Stampin' Dimensionals 104430, Stampin' UP mini glue dots 103683 and Sponge Daubers (12) 102892

I am sorry about using so many tools that are now unavailable, I guess I didn't realize that several of them were.  This is why you need to order the things you want while they are still in the current catalog because once they are gone, well, they're gone.  Go here to place your order for the supplies to make this card.

Thanks for dropping by my blog.  Leave a comment to tell me what you think about this share.

Have a wonderful day,

Gayle

Uncharted Territory - Happy Graduation

Here's the Happy Graduation card I came up with and, "Yes, it is a guy card."   The stamp set used is Uncharted Territory.  It has so many possibilities.  It could be a Happy Father's Day card.  I really don't want this one to go away but it is not going to be in the new annual catalog coming out on June 1st.  I am sure they will have another even prettier set for us to use!  The idea for this card comes from a Stampin' UP demonstrator's site: www.jillstamps.com  The technique used is called the twisted easel card!  Shop HERE for the Stampin' UP! supplies you need and those that will no longer be available soon.

 This is my first time to make an angle card like this.  This was my first opportunity to do it.  You have to have something on the card to hold it when you fold it to make it stand up.like I have with the Happy Graduation sentiment!  I used 4 layers of card stock.

 On the back of the card I stamped another sentiment on Whisper White card stock.  That was a little unusual but I wanted to include one and that was the only place left.  All surfaces covered, I guess!  I will add some more embellishments to give it some bling! Twine or eyelets? 

I added something.  Do you see it?  Does it make much difference?  A finishing touch, maybe?

Stamp Sets: Uncharted Territory, Teeny Tiny Wishes and Word Play

Card Stock:  Watercolor Paper, Not Quite Navy, The Write Stuff DSP (not available) & Whisper White

Ink:  Jet Black Stazon Ink Pad, Not Quite Navy Marker & Pad, Ruby Red Pad & Watercolor Pencils

Accessories:  Blender Pens, Sponge Daubers

Leave a comment and let me know what you think about this card.  I have a Stamp-A-Stack Class coming up on Saturday, May 12 and this will be one of the cards we will be making.  Email me at 4UIPRAY@COX.NET to let me know if you plan to attend.  For 8 cards total the cost is only $17.00.  That is a very good deal because with the exception of adhesive, I supply all you need to complete the cards  including envelopes..

I will see you soon!
