Traveler Birthday

Here is another sample of a masculine card that I put together recently using the Traveler and Endless Birthday Wishes stamp sets.  I added a piece of Mint Macaroon that was embossed with the Boho Chic folder behind some Typeset specialty paper and then added my stamped layers.

 

The linen thread is just wrapped around several times and attached to the back of the Typeset specialty paper layer.

 

Supplies:

Traveler, Endless Birthday Wishes

Basic Black ink

Mint Macaroon, Very Vanilla, Basic Black card stock

Typeset specialty paper

Boho chic folder

linen thread

 

Thanks so Much!

 

While I don't enjoy cutting out images too much, I did cut out these three flowers that were stamped from the Everything Eleanor stamp set.  They are layered onto a piece of Crumb Cake that has some images from Chalk Lines stamped to form a frame.  

 

The sentiment is from a past Paper Pumpkin kit and I added some thick baker's twine from Sale-a-bration and a layer of Mint Macaron that was embossed with the Boho Chic folder. 

 

I like this color combination and will probably use it again soon!  Lost Lagoon, Mint Macaron, Crumb Cake and Whisper White...

Decorative Notepads

 

Quite awhile ago while I was in an office supply store I bought a pack of 8 1/2" x 11" note pads and had them cut into three pieces.  I have used a few since then, but I have quite a pile of them left and figured I better start using them up!

 

The holder for these note pads is 12" x 6 1/2" and is scored at 3 1/8" from both sides.  I added some Neutrals color collection designer series paper and layered some Boho Chic embossed card stock before I added my sentiment from Just Kidding that was cut out with the Labels collection framelits.

 

On the inside I added another strip of designer series paper...

 

For the second one, I used some Sale-a-bration leftovers along with the Everything Eleanor stamp set.

 

I have a layer embossed with the same impressions folder on this one as well as a tea lace paper doily.

 

These are fun little items to put together and don't take a lot of time.

June Stamp Club Projects

 

For this month's stamp club projects I chose to use mostly new catalog items with the exception of some of the card stocks and the Summer Silhouettes stamp set which is used on the layout.

 

For the designer series paper I chose the Bohemian collection and used colors that coordinated with that including Blackberry Bliss, Delightful Dijon, Very Vanilla, Island Indigo and Bermuda Bay. 

 

I stayed with the Bohemian theme for the first card using Boho Chic as the textured impressions folder on the Mint Macaron background. 

 

And the final card uses what is now one of my favorite stamp sets in the catalog (although that will change many times throughout the year!) - You've Got This. 

 

Supplies:

You've Got This, I Think You're Great, Summer Silhouettes

Delightful Dijon, Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaron, Pink Pirouette, Watermelon Wonder, Tip Top Taupe and Cucumber Crush ink and markers

Blackberry Bliss, Delightful Dijon, Very Vanilla, Island Indigo, Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaron, Watermelon Wonder, Tip Top Taupe card stock

Make a Difference

 

Each year Stampin' Up! has a stamp set designated as a Ronald McDonald House Charities set and for every one of these stamp sets that are purchased, they donate $3 to RMHC.  The set this year is called Sprinkles of Life and it is a very versatile one that also coordinates with the Tree Builder Punch.

 

You will also notice a new embossing folder in the background, that is called Boho Chic and I have used it on some Basic Gray card stock. 

 

Since the sentiment says "Every cloud has a silver lining - you just have to look up to see it." I stamped the clouds with Silver metallic ink...

 

Supplies:

Sprinkles of Life

Soft Suede, Mossy Meadow, Silver metallic ink

Whisper White, Basic Gray, Soft Suede card stock

White jute ribbon

Boho Chic folder
