Birthday Cupcakes!


Tomorrow is the first of my two Birthday Card Classes so I have been busy getting all the supplies ready and set up so I haven't stamped anything new but I thought I would share a close up of the Birthday Card that we are making tomorrow that features the Crazy for Cupcakes Stamp Set. This card is available in Regal Rose or Wild Wasabi. Both have the same basic design and can have either the Cupcake tower or the big cupcake. So for the list of supplies besides Regal Red Card Stock and Classic Stampin' Pad I used Wild Wasabi Card Stock and Classic Stampin' Pad, Marina Mist Classic Stampin' Pad, Basic Gray Classic Stampin' Pad, 2 Way Glue, Dazzling Diamonds, Marina Mist Designer Series Paper, 1/4" Whisper White Grosgrain Ribbon, Whisper White Card Stock, Blender Pen, Decorative Label Punch, and Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder for the Big Shot. I have prepared 121 cards for the next two days but I hope to get in some fun stamping tomorrow evening or Sunday so be sure and check back again on Monday for new projects. This would be a great workshop card so if you are interested in making this card let me know and we can get some of your friends together and stamp. There is no better time than Sale-a-bration to host a workshop. Have a great weekend and Thanks for stopping by, Tonya

Some More Digital Downloads!

Stampin'UP! has added even more new digital downloads to the all ready wonderful selection. I will be taking a closer look at these later. I love the Designer Series Papers and how easy they are to use on the Digital Pages I have made. Maybe I will find some free time this week to work on a digital page or two. I have lots of Christmas pictures that need to be worked on. Contact me if you have any questions about My Digital Studio or the Downloads. One great thing about them is once you make your purchase they are ready for you to download immediately. So you can start to work on your project without waiting. Oh, and check out the color combo for the new Island Oasis II Designer Series Paper, yep it is the same color combo that Kaylee just used in the birthday card in the previous post. I will have to ask her later today where she saw that color combo. :) Have a great day! Tonya

Birthday Card by my wonderful Daughter


Hello! I am busy cutting, scoring and embossing supplies for the upcoming Birthday Card Class that is this weekend so today I am sharing a card that my wonderful daughter made this weekend for a friend. I am not quite sure where the bright color combo came from but the birthday girl really liked it so she must know her friends well. She used the Level 1 hostess set Birthday Bakery. The colors she used are Daffodil Delight, Pacific Point, Melon Mambo and Rich Razzleberry. The sentiment is from the Crazy for Cupcakes Stamp Set which was setting out for this weekend. She used the Modern Label Punch to punch out the sentiment. I like how she added the cakes in the background on the Daffodil Delight layer and the polka dots on the Melon Mambo that are made with the Big Shot and the Perfect Polka Dots really give the card that extra something. I love how versatile the Big Shot is and how it really has brought a whole new dimension to my crafting. Now is a great time to order your Big Shot as you can receive Sale-a-bration products just for ordering it. I am off to finish up the embossing and am also going to try and set up for the class this weekend. That is super early for me but if it is done then I have more free time to sew and stamp. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day, Tonya

Countryside Birthday!


Good morning! Today looks to be a beautiful day. The sun is shining and will hopefully melt away some of the snow that we have but until then I am making cards and wanted to share with you the final card for my upcoming Birthday Card Class. I have really liked the Countryside Stamp Set when the it came out in the catalog but I have put off buying it until now. I really am glad I made the purchase. I really like the truck image and think it makes for a great guys card. The card is pretty straight forward so I will just give you a list of supplies: Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla and Basic Black Card Stock, Basic Gray, Pear Pizzazz and Riding Hood Red Classic Ink, Distressing Kit, and First Edition Specialty Designer Series Paper. How and the sentiment is from All Holidays Stamp Set. I have a couple of more card ideas for this stamp set that I hope to get to try out in the next few days. Don't forget that if you are attending the Birthday Card Class I need to know how many of each card you would like to make by the end of today so I can start cutting the card stock. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day, Tonya

Heart Flowers

Good morning, I have one last Filled with Love card to share with you before the special ends today. If you want to order this stamp set (in clear or wood) and the Designer Series Paper and receive the Clear Buttons free then be sure and place your order today. Now back to the card. The base of the card and the Designer Series Paper are both Real Red. I have added Polka Dots to the top of the card with the Big Shot and the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder. I used the Tasteful Trim Die and cut out the Early Espresso Double Scalloped Strip that was place across the middle of the card. This die was in the Holiday Mini and is still available to purchase. The heart/flower stamp was inked with the Real Red and Old Olive Stampin' Write Markers then stamped across the Whisper White Card Stock five times. I layered it on a piece of Old Olive Card Stock that has the bottom punched with the Pinking Hearts Border Punch. To finish off the card I inked the Feb 14 with the Early Espresso Stampin' Write Marker and the heart with the Real Red Stampin' Write Marker then punched it out with the 3/4" x 15/16" Oval Punch and added it to the card with SNAIL. Have you started your Valentine's Cards yet? If not the Filled with Love Stamp Set is a great option.

Sale-a-bration starts tomorrow and don't forget that for every $50 you spend (before tax and shipping) you get to pick one item from the Sale-a-bration Brochure.

Love!

Good afternoon! I have a few more cards that we made with the Filled with Love Bundle. I want to make sure I show them all to you before the promotion ends. This card is a little hard to see due to the lighting but I really like the combo of Pretty in Pink and Basic Black. The Love is stamped with the Jet Black Stazon with the center stamped with Pretty In Pink then punched out with the 3/4" Punch. There is a Rhinestone in the center. The circle was added with a Stampin' Dimensionals. Then the layers were added with the Pretty in Pink and Basic Black Card Stock. The designer paper is also from the Filled with Love Bundle. There is Real Red and Pretty in Pink Designer Series Paper in the Bundle. The Basic Black Satin Ribbon is ruffled along the center and really helps accent the stamped image. If you want to get your Filled with Love Bundle don't delay the promotion ends on Monday. If you order the bundle from me and you want any of the measurements for the project I did with the Filled with Love Bundle please let me know and I would be happy to send them to you. I am going to run, we are having a busy weekend and I need to get a couple of other things done before I head out again. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend, Tonya

Birthday Card Class

I only have one design left to due for my upcoming Birthday Card Class and unfortunately I am going to have to wait until Monday to complete it because the stamp set has not arrived. :( I can tell you that the card will feature the Countryside Stamp Set if that helps. I have decided to show you a picture of the other cards together then over the weekend I will show the individual cards that I haven't showcased yet. The Rose Red and Wild Wasabi Cards in the second row are the same design just different colors to show you the two options. This makes the card great for boys or girls. If you are attending the classes next weekend please let me know whether you would like Rose Red or Wild Wasabi or multiples of each. Remember this class is set up in such a way that you can make as many cards as you want. The first 6 cards are $12 and ever card after that is just a $1. So get your list out for the year and get your Birthday cards done early. I am off to deliver orders and run errands. Lots to do today before the weekend but be sure and stop back by for more cards. Have a great day and thank you for stopping by, Tonya

Good Together!

Good evening, I have another card to share with you tonight that uses the Filled with Love Bundle. This was another one of the cards we did at my class last weekend. This card is filled with lots of details and products. The base is Real Red Card Stock then we added a layer of Early Espresso. The Pretty in Pink Designer Series Paper is also in the bundle. The corners were punched with Pinking Hearts Corner Punch and then added to the card. We used the Big Shot to make the Scalloped Envelope which has our two hearts tucked inside. One was stamped with Real Red and one in Pretty in Pink. Both were attached with Stampin' Dimensionals. We added Real Red Taffeta Ribbon around the envelope before attaching it to the card with more Dimensionals. The sentiment "We're Good Together" was stamped with Early Espresso on Whisper White Card Stock and punched out with the 3/4" x 15/16" Oval Punch. I will be giving this card to my DH for Valentine's day this year. :) If you want to have one for your sweetheart then don't forget to place your order for the Filled with Love Bundle before the end of the day on Monday because after that the stamp set won't be available. Give me a call if you need help placing your order. Tomorrow I will be back with more Birthday cards. Thanks for stopping by, Tonya

Circle Circus Birthday


Time for another birthday card. I must admit that I have had this set for a while (like more than half a year) and had not inked it until I made this card. :( This card contains the colors Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, and Pumpkin Pie and the combo comes straight from the Color Coach. The stamp sets I used are Circle Circus and Teeny Tiny Wishes. The Square Lattice Embossing Folder was used on the bottom and the accessories that were added are Night of Navy Grosgrain Ribbon and Silver Brads. If you would like to make this card it will be one of the ones that we are making at my upcoming Birthday Card Stamp A Stack. I will be posting another card using the Filled with Love Bundle later this evening so be sure and stop back by then. Hope you are enjoying all the wonderful white snow. The kids and I got to go out sledding today and they had so much fun. Thanks for stopping by, Tonya

Extreme Birthday!


Good evening, I did manage to get a few pictures taken of some of the Birthday Cards that I am planning to have for the Birthday Card Class. The card I am sharing tonight is great for the extreme teen or tween in your life or just the young at heart. I am showing the Extreme Guitar but you can also make this card with the Extreme Dirt Biker. All the other elements would stay the same. I am working on two more cards now so I am going to keep this post short. Please let me know if you would like to attend. I have room on both days. Thanks for stopping by and check back tomorrow for more cards. Tonya

Valentine Treat Box


Good morning! Well, the snow has started early here so I may not be taking pictures of birthday cards like I originally planned today but I do have a few more to finish up so I can at least stamp. :) Today 's post is a super quick Valentine Treat Box that we made at Saturday's class. It used the Filled with Love Bundle and a few extra Big Shot items. Love the Big Shot and how easy it makes my life. If you don't have one then Sale-a-bration is a great time to get one because you will get free merchandise just for ordering it. But back to the treat box. The die I used is Bitty Box and Envelope Bigz XL Die in Pretty In Pink. You will need a Crease Pad for this die. The box holds four Hershey Nuggets inside which we decorated with the Real Red and Pretty In Pink Designer Series Paper that comes in the Bundle. On the top of the box we added a Real Red Layer of Designer Series Paper. The heart is stamped on Whisper White Card Stock with the Pretty In Pink Classic Ink Pad. Before we stamped we inked up the solid heart with a Real Red Stampin' Write Marker, then stamped. If you are making multiple hearts remember to clean your stamp each time or you will transfer Real Red ink onto your Pretty In Pink Pad. The heart is punched out with the Full Heart Punch then layered on the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslits Die which was made with Early Espresso Card Stock. I love the delicate scalloped edge on the die. It adds just a little extra to the box. These boxes are super easy to make and you can get two from a single sheet of card stock which makes them great for school or work. Don't forget that Monday is the last day to order the Filled with love Bundle. You can order online or by calling or emailing me. Oh, I think I might see the sun trying to peak out so I had better get ready to take a few pictures so I can post again later tonight. Have a great day and thanks for stopping by, Tonya

Filled With Love Club Card


Tonight's card is another one that we did at Stamp Club last week. We used the Filled with Love Bundle and technique called Inset Embossing. It is a super easy technique to do and makes a big impact. For this card we used the Heart to Heart Punch and used Whisper White, Pretty in Pink, and Early Espresso. Glue the hearts randomly all over the card using your favorite adhesive then run it the card front through the Big Shot with a Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, for this one we used the Square Lattice Folder. The base of the card is Real Red. To finish the card we inked the heart floral image with the Real Red and Early Espresso Stampin' Write Markers and stamped on Whisper White Card Stock. The Whisper White was layer on Early Espresso Card Stock. The Be my Valentine was inked with Early Espresso and punched out with the 3/4"x 15/16" Oval Punch. We used the 1/8" Pretty in Pink Taffeta Ribbon to accent the stamped image and added a heart clear button too. The buttons are free with the Filled with Love Bundle. If you would like to order a Filled with Love bundle remember the offer ends January 24th. It is available in both Clear and Wood mount.
This month was our last club meeting for this round and we will be starting again next month. If you would like to join us please contact me. We have a couple of spots available.
Thanks for stopping by. I will be posting again tomorrow with a new Valentine's Card and a Birthday card for the upcoming Birthday card class. Have a great evening, Tonya
