Stamp a Stack- Mixed Bunch

These cards use the Mixed Bunches stamp set & the Blossom Punch which from the Occasions Mini Catalog that will be carried over into the New 2012-2013 Stampin Up catalog.  Can you believe the new catalog will start in less than 1 week.  Woo Hoo!  I also used the Cheerful Treat Designer Series Paper from a Hostess only pack that is retiring. Other products are: Big Shot, Perfect Polka Dots textured impressions embossing folder, 1" Circle punch, Modern Label punch, Glimmer brads, Designer brads, Pear Pizzazz Seam Binding Ribbon, Old Olive 1/2" Scallop Dots Ribbon.  I have also come up with 1 more card to go along with these cards so you will pick 2 of the different cards for this set.  I will have the other card on my blog soon.  
 

 

Hope everyone is having a fun & safe Memorial Day weekend.  Michele Schmidt, Waterloo, IA

Stamp a Stack- You're a Gem

This card is another partial case of a card another demonstrator made.  I did change up the red color used, the ribbon & how the ribbon was done.  A very caseable card.  It uses 3 different punches- Fancy Flower, 1 3/8" Circle and a flower punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack.  Love it. 
 
 

Stamp a Stack- Up, Up & Away & Sneak Peak product from New Catalog

This card did double duty.  Not only is it a Stamp a Stack card but will also be my nephews graduation card.  I bought this Up, Up & Away stamp set and haven't had a chance to even use it yet so was excited to see it made it into the new Catalog also.  The Sneak Peak?  Apothecary Accents Framelits, one of these pieces was used for the words. 
 
 

Stamp a Stack- Best of Everything

I am using some retiring Designer Series Paper on this card but love the yellow with these colors.  I cased this card from another swap card I received except I changed not only the paper but the layout of the stamped piece, put the bird on the branch & didn't use the stamped buttons the demonstrator had used. 
Have you ever tried casing a card?

Stamp a Stack- Field Flowers

Stamp a Stack      Monday 6/4/2012 4PM to 9PM      RSVP by 5/31/2012

Here is the 1st card for the upcoming Stamp a Stack.  This was a Swap card from Leadership in January that I just loved.  It is an exact copy except for I didn't have any of the striped Calypso Coral Designer Series paper so I used Tangerine Tango which still went perfect.  This also uses some of the 3/8" Riding Hood Red Pleated Satin Ribbon I bought from the last Mini Catalog just for this card.  It also uses Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details that will now be in the New Catalog.

Stamp a Stack

Here is a peak at the cards for the next Stamp a Stack.  I do not have a date set yet but will be shortly.  I might also have to change up the bottom right cards a bit as I am not sure I will have enough Designer Series Paper depending on attendance.  Keep watching for more information.

February Stamp a Stack- Creative Elements

I can't believe my February Stamp a Stack is next week already.  I know the RSVP is today but I do have spots open so will still take them until 9pm tomorrow so I can cut it this weekend. 

 

I was asked to come up with a tag for a customer so she could use it as a business card.  I ended up liking the tag & decided I could add it to a card and use it as my last Stamp a Stack card. 

Stampin' Up! product used:  Creative Elements stamp set, Big Shot, Two Tags Bigz Die, Elegant Lines Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, First Edition Specialty Designer Series Paper, Victoria 5/8" Crochet Trim, Vintage Trinkets, dimensionals, Mini glue dot.

Stampin Up product used:  Stampin Up stamp set Just Believe, Big Shot, Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Boho Blossoms Punch, Basic Pearls, Cheerful Treat Hostess Designer Series Paper, Old Olive 1/2" Scallop Dots Ribbon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

February Stamp a Stack- Sprinkled Expressions

 Here is another fun card that could be used as a graduation card but also just for someone who accomplished something & you want to share it with them.  I used my Simply Scored to make the lines around the outside of the card.  The glittery star on there was our silver glitter paper but it you see it in person you will see a yellow tint to it as I had sponged it. 

The best part is the stamp set was free.  It is in the Saleabration Brochure & now through March 31st you can get it free if you put in a $50 order. 

Stampin Up product used:  Simply Scored, Stampin Up stamp set Sprinkled Expressions, Silver Glitter paper, sponges, Poppy Parade 1/2" Stitched Poly Ribbon, Pocketful of Poies Designer Series Paper, dimensionals, retired small star punch.
