Stamp Club December 2014

 The card, above, was going to be one of the make-n-takes, until I realized I was totally out of Lost Lagoon card stock!

 I DID have some Pear Pizzazz card stock, though!  When you emboss the silver foil sheets...SOOO cool!

 This snowman is made with All Is Calm Specialty DSP and a 2 1/2" circle cut in half.  Just pop the white on the DSP and he's got a hat!  We embossed the Pear Pizzazz with the Filigree Frame folder.  It looks like snow is swirling around him!

 This demo thank you card has a Snowflake Embellishment with a rhinestone jewel in the center.  A little Dazzling Details Silver Sparkle gives it just enough bling!

Our last make-n-take used the Mosaic Madness set with the mosaic punch.  We layered the stamped image over 2 Elegant Eggplant mosaic shapes.  The Fancy Foil Designer Vellum adds an interesting touch to the background!

Happy Stamping!

Stamping Fun Night November 2014

Lost Lagoon was the star on this card, above, along with the Six-Sided Sampler stamp set.  And just a little bling peeking out the corners!

 The All is Calm Specialty DSP looks like a holiday paper.  But take a closer look and you'll see tons of possibilities!  Pear Pizzazz is a perfect match-up!

A black and white Christmas card?!  Why not!  The rectangle is made with clear block H and Smoky Slate ink.  And Lovely as a Tree looks...lovely on this card!

It was a fun night of stamping and visiting!

Happy Stamping!

Stamp Club November 2014

The Fancy Foil Designer Vellum is a great background for this card.  Use adhesive on the back of the circles.  Your vellum will stick, but you won't see the adhesive!  The pumpkin is made with the large oval punch.  And that's the All is Calm DSP behind the pumpkin!

Clear emboss on black, using the VersaMark pad gives a different effect.  This is a quick and easy card when you need a sympathy card, or to make ahead so you have a few on hand.  Try switching out the colors if you want the same effect but with brighter colors.

I just love these little snowflake charms!!  Add some snowflakes from the All is Calm DSP and you're ready for winter.  Or at least the card is!  :)

Use sponges and ink pads to make this pretty autumn background.  I used Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler, and Mossy Meadow.  Swirl the sponge in a circle as you go to blend the colors better.  Then add a slightly larger piece of Very Vanilla behind, tear the edges, and mount on Basic Black and Mossy Meadow card stock.

It was another fun night stamping with Stamp Club!

Happy Stamping!

September 2014 Stamping Fun Night

 These cards are quick and easy.  Just attach DSP to the front of a card, and add a tag with dimensionals!  I like it with just the punched image AND with the punched image attached to the tag!

 We used a Decorative Mask to make the Daffodil Delight stars.  What a fun way to add some pizzazz to a card!

To make the Thank You card, emboss the vellum card stock with the Filigree Frame from the Holiday catalog.  Then cut out the center with Labels Collection Framelit.  Attach to the card with mini brads, stamp the words, add a bow, and you're ready to send it out!

Happy Stamping!
