Post It Note Holder


This was the April Stamp Camp! I used two coasters and covered them in Flowers for you paper. I coordinated Old Olive and Elegant Eggplant card stock. I also used Old Olive and Certainly Celery ribbon in the 1'' jump ring. The stamp set wording "Cherish" was from Baroque Motifs. I inked the edges in Old Olive, and finished it with two brads and a chip board heart.
Really- The two little girls are my favorite part!

Stamp Camp Cards



This is the third card. (I always post backwards!)The card, ribbon, and ink is Chocolate Chip. The insert is Pretty in Pink, and the edges are punched with the Ticket Corner Punch. The Stamp set used are Priceless for the background and the wording is Wonderful Words. I punched out "Love" with the Small oval punch, inked it with Versa Mark and rolled the edge in Iridescent Ice and Embossed.

Stamp Camp Cards

I used the Pretty in Pink for the card. I used Old Olive as the green background paper. The two Stamp sets used are Priceless, and Wonderful Words. I used Certainly Celery, Old Olive, Pretty in Pink and Close to Coco for the background and the words. The card is closed with the slit punch. The card is edged in Old Olive.

Stamp Camp Cards

This is one of three Stamp Camp Cards. I used Close to Coco paper and Chocolate Chip Ink and Grosgrain ribbon. I used Pretty in Pink For the Scallop Punch Paper. The stamp set that was used is Priceless for the center flower and the background flower on the top. The center of the flower was double stamped in Close to Coco and Pretty in Pink, I punched it out of the Close to Coco one with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch. The center was punched with the 1/16'' punch then mounted. On the Scalloped pink flower each petal was punched with the 1/16'' punch. The "Celebrate" phrase is Wonderful Words. The edges are inked in Close to Coco.

Valentine's Love



I was so inspired by my fellow Philly Inker Melissa- that I used Loads of Love and made nine cards, so far for Valentines Day. They are all different, some embossed, some have brads, some have Crystal Effects, some have ribbon, some have it all!!

Place card love




I have been inspired by the catalog- so I made place "cards" for my craft night on Saturday. I used standard clips from Staples, modge podge, scrapbook paper- my fav the Scallop punch and the circle punch. I couldn't get a clear image- but I you get the idea. My guests loved it, very personal. I am going to make these for

my daughters favors, for the school birthday craft!

Christmas Craft


This is a craft project that I did with a 1st grade class. I cut the square in the coaster. I then cut the Stampin Up! Dashing paper to fit. I adhered the transparency to the back side of the opening. I punched two 1/8'' circle holes in the front coaster as well as the back. The children then pasted on their picture and with the help of five adults threaded the Real Red ribbon through the frames and glued them together. The star punch was glued on at the end. (Also Stampin Up! but retired) They signed and dated the back.
Hmmm- the craft seemed simple.
My lesson, remember the audience.
