August Stamp Club

 

These are the projects we made for stamp club this month using the Hello Lovely, Gorgeous Grunge, Delicate Doilies and Yippee Skippee stamp sets.

 



 

The layout uses 2012-2014 In Color dsp and Raspberry Ripple, Whisper White, and Crumb Cake card stock and inks.

 

The first card uses I Am Me dsp and So Saffron, Calypso Coral and Pool Party card stock. 

 

and the second one uses Season of Style dsp in a way other than for the holidays.

 

Like these projects?  I have both a local Stamp Club and a Virtual Stamp Club and would love to have you join me! 

 

 

Scrapping with I Am Me

 

I had some pictures from my sister's family's trip to Arizona last winter to see our parents and wanted to scrap them for our album.  

 

The pages contain a lot of designer series paper from the I Am Me set as well as some Simply Pressed Clay buttons and faux stitching and dots made with the white gel pen.

 

My title was made with My Digital studio using the Chevron brush stamp set as a background for the words.

 

All of the pictures are 4" x 6".

 

Supplies:

Pool Party, Whisper White, Calypso Coral, Real Red, Basic Gray card stock

Chalk Talk

I Am Me dsp

Real Red classic ink

Extra large oval punch

Scallop edge punch

White Gel Pen

Simply Pressed Clay

There's You

 

This card is one I used for a swap at convention, it was pretty simple to put together, the slowest thing was probably cutting out the image behind the sentiment.

 



 

Supplies:

Chalk Talk

I Am Me dsp

So Saffron, Basic Gray, Whisper White, Real Red card stock

Calypso Coral and Real Red ink

Chalk Talk framelits

June Stamp Camp Projects

Lisa and I were finally able to hold a Stamp Camp at the end of June, my schedule was the hold up given the wet and drawn out planting season.

 

These are the fun projects we created using some new catalog items that we love.

 

 

This fun pouch uses the Gingham Garden dsp and Chalk Talk stamp set and framelits.  It is made from a piece of 12 x 12 dsp and used the measurements from this video.

 

I CASED this idea from our Stampin' Success magazine using the Tape it stamp set and a couple of Paper Pumpkin stamps.

 

Lisa came up with this super cute card using the I Am Me dsp (love that set!).

 

 

I Am Me

Happy Independence Day!  My card isn't too patriotic today, but we are enjoying the Fourth of July celebrations in Park River along with my husband's high school reunion.  The kids will be full of sugar for many days in the future after collecting it at the parade!

 



 

I played around with the Simply Pressed  Clay accent on this card using the Calypso Coral marker around the edges and adding some Candy dots to the center.

Seriously, Awesome Thanks!

 

These are the cards inside the box I shared with you yesterday (and you can see it below as well). 

 

 

"Seriously" is from a Paper Pumpkin kit and the "Awesome, thanks" is from the Yippee-Skippee stamp set.

 

I have used similar colors and elements on the card as I did for the box.

Teacher Gift Revisited (with box tutorial)

 

I have had some requests for instructions to make the box I used for my teacher gift in this post awhile back so I decided to update it with new catalog products and share some instructions. 

 

 

I decided to go with the I Am Me designer series paper and the Yippee-Skippee stamp set for the updated version.  I also used the cycle Celebration stamp set and the Deco Labels collection framelits.

 

You will need a 12" x 10" piece of card stock.  It will be scored at 2" and 8" on the short side and 3", 4", 5", 6" and 7" on the long side.  You will see in the picture above where to cut and where you will just fold.

 

I made two sections on the inside of the box by folding up 5" score line and using sticky strip to keep it together.

 

I used the sticky strip all the way across and then cut the notches as shown above.  Attach the folded flap to the side with sticky strip and then continue to use sticky strip to put the sides together.

 

This is the inside of the box showing the divider.

 

Ready to decorate!

 

My dsp pieces were 2 3/4" x 5 3/4", 4 3/4" x 5 3/4", and 2 - 1 3/4" x 4 3/4" with a 1" 5 3/4" strip over the top of the one on the front.

 

I found some fun straws and Michaels that were a pretty close match to Calypso Coral and added them to a 1" x 8" cello bag.  There is a drink mix pouch in the box near the straws although you can't see it.

 

 

There are a couple cards in the box as well as a coaster sticky note pad.  I will share the cards with you tomorrow!  My original box included a decorated candy bar, but we didn't have one around the house this time.
