June party

We made these cards at Anna's party.  It was lots of fun!

Have your friends over for a fun afternoon or evening of stamping, and they can make the same great set of cards!

Happy Stamping!

New Catalog Workshop June 2015

 I used Mint Macaron Dotted Lace on the center of this card.  To make the fancy top of the Thank You I ran it through the Big Shot with a Floral Frames Framelit, using just the top portion.  And that Crumb Cake tag???  Made with the Triple Banner Punch.  What a great tool!

The Layered Letters stamp set was used to make the background of this card, with the Thank You layered on White Vellum card stock.  I love the Cucumber Crush and Soft Sky together!!

This make-n-take was a great way to learn/practice using the Heat and Stick powder.  Stamp the image in VersaMark, pour Heat and Stick on top and shake off the excess.  Heat the Heat and Sick powder, then pour glitter on top while it is still hot and sticky.  I always heat it again so the powder can melt a little more and the glitter gets some extra sticky!

The candles are made with a stamp from Build a Birthday, Cherry on Top DSP, and Cherry on Top washi tape.

The last make-n-take uses the Sprinkle of Life Ronald McDonald House Charities stamp set.  With each stamp set purchased, Stampin' Up will donate $3 to RMHC!  Plus, it's a great versatile set!  Pear Pizzazz and Soft Sky make the perfect color combo for a spring card!  And the Pear Pizzazz cotton ribbon is the icing on the cake!

Happy Stamping!

May 2015 Stamping Fun Night

Daydream Medallions and Chalk Talk...What a great combination of images for this card!  These will both be retiring soon, along with the Baked Brown Sugar card stock.  The Floral Frames Framelits are here to stay, and make a beautiful design around the stamped image!

The Bunny from Happy Easter Bunny in the Occasions catalog can easily go on his own as a fun dancing bunny!  The Chalk Marker makes the teeth and tail pop.

The Bloom with Hope stamp set is leaving soon.  It's a hostess set, so if you don't have it, you need to party before the end of May!  We used the spritzer filled with rubbing alcohol and 10 drops of Baked Brown Sugar reinker.

This pinwheel fun fold is easy to make, and fits in a medium envelope!  Find a fabulous tutorial video at DOstamping.typepad.com.

It was a fun evening of stamping!

Remember to check out the retiring list and get your order in my June 2nd!  Contact me to order, or order online at www.patricepierce.stampinup.net.

SAVE THE DATE!!

The New Catalog Workshop will be held on Sunday, May 31st and Monday, June 1st.  More info coming soon!

Happy Stamping!

April 2015 Stamping Fun Night

I demonstrated this Mr. & Mrs. card using Label Love (retiring) and the Artisan Label punch (also retiring).  The Fancy Foil Designer Vellum and Silver Foil sheets make this quick and easy card really pop!

I am trying to have us make at least one masculine card at every party, and the bird from the Moon Lake stamp set was a great set, yet again, for a masculine card!  The words are from Work of Art.  That set, as well as the Adventure Bound DSP, are both in the Occasions catalog.  

Get Mom the perfect gift, and then add a cute gift card to let her know how much you love her!  The Pistachio Pudding card stock is one of the 2013-2015 InColors that will not be available after June 2nd.  It's so pretty with the Gold Soiree DSP (also retiring on June 1st!).  We made our own envelope with the Envelope Punch Board!

An octopus might not really be this color, but it probably wouldn't have such a cute smile either!  :)  This bright and cheery card was just what we needed after some snow this past week!  The other soon-to-be-gone 2013-2015 InColors are highlighted here (Strawberry Slush, Baked Brown Sugar, Coastal Cabana, and Crisp Cantaloupe).

It was a fun night of stamping and visiting!

Happy Stamping!
