Winter Woods Fun Fold

Friday, November 30, 2018
This is another fun fold card that we made at the November Card Club.
I wanted to design this card using the fabulous WINTER WOODS Stamp Set. I think that the FESTIVE FARMHOUSE Designer Paper pairs nicely with the Winter Woods Stamp Set
The sentiment on the front is from FARMHOUSE CHRISTMAS, and I used some BRADS as well.  So glad that Stampin' Up! brought brads back into our line up again. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this plaid paper and wish I could buy it in bulk.
The front piece is stamped in Early Espresso, then added a piece of MULTIPURPOSE ADHESIVE SHEETS.  Once you peel off the top layer you add DAZZLING DIAMONDS GLITTER

Mirror Image

Thursday, November 29, 2018
I received this card from Lynda C - one of the gals on my Stampin' Up! team and thought it would be great to feature this technique at my card club.
Lynda made her beautiful card in monochromatic black and white which is so elegant, but I wanted to change it up to make it my own.
The colors I chose are Old Olive and Early Espresso - great fall colors.
We started by inking up the leaf area of the tree from ROOTED IN NATURE Stamp Set with Old Olive ink, and then coloring in the trunk of the tree using an Early Espresso Stampin' Write Marker.  Before stamping onto the Whisper White paper I used another technique called "THUMPING", using Stampin' Write Markers in Calypso Coral, Pumpkin Pie, and Cherry Cobbler.
I repeated this process and then stamped it onto my SILICONE MAT. Flipped over the Silicone Mat and lined it up with the image and pressed it down. If you don't own a Silicone Mat, you can also use a Window Sheet (acetate clear), but the Silicone mat is much easier and doesn't smear like the Window Sheet.
I created a grassy area by using a scrap piece of paper - lining it up under the tree where trunk meets trunk and using a sponge dauber and some old olive ink.
The water area for the mirror image is from HIGH TIDE stamped in Pool Party (stamped off once) 
and the sentiment is from ITTY BITTY GREETINGS
I am loving how this turned out!
The 3 little METALLIC PEARLS really add just that little touch to complete the card.

Animal Outing Baby Cards

Wednesday, November 28, 2018
A while back I was invited to a baby shower for a special young lady having her first baby.
One of the things I love to do is to make thank you notes for the mom-to-be to send out.
But I also made a coordinating baby shower card.  I love it when they say that they don't even have to open the card to know who it is from!
 Of course I had to make a coordinating card for the new grandma! Especially since it is their very first grandbaby
 ANIMAL OUTING is such a perfect stamp set to use for baby themed cards.
The sentiment came from the retired CUDDLES & KISSES stamp set.
I had to wait to post this because I waited for the baby to be born so as not to spoil the surprise for the grandma.
This card was cased form the crafty yogi on Pinterest.
I love the GRAY GRANITE color combined with So Saffron.

Phase 3 On Line Extravaganza

Tuesday, November 27, 2018
Today starts PHASE 3 of Stampin' Up!'s ONLINE EXTRAVAGANZA!

10% off Tools and Ink!
What is your favorite Stampin' Up! color?  Too hard to choose, right? I love them all!! Maybe you have a favorite color family or maybe you need to fill in the blanks of ink color that you haven't purchased yet. NOW is the perfect time to stock up on those inks and check out the tools as well.

I'm loving the fact that they brought Poppy Parade back in to the Brights color family. It is a softer shade of red, and matches perfectly with the SANTAS WORKSHOP Designer Paper that I used on this cute Gift Card Holder. This is one that we made at the November Card Club. I believe I followed the how-to tutorial by Dawn Griffith.
The sentiment is from READY FOR CHIRSTMAS

And I made a masculine birthday version using STYLIZED BIRTHDAY (R) and some retired Designer Paper.

Did you see my (extra) special from Saturday's blog post? Just in case you did or didn't - let me refresh your memory...
Were you a little frustrated that you couldn't just place one big order with the stamps & Kits that you want (from Phase 2) and the Tools & Ink (from Phase 3) because you hate to pay all that shipping expense?

Well, I have a remedy for all of you...
The first order you place you will pay the full shipping expense.  Come back for phase 2 and or 3, and if your total reaches $69 your shipping will be covered in full by ME!!, your favorite Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!! - I will refund your shipping cost.
Now you can shop freely and get more bang for your buck.

Here is a reminder of the Sales:

Monday, November 26, 2018
I'm so behind on my blog posts!
Our team meeting was on the 15th and I am just now getting to sharing the cards that the gals on my team shared that night.
That night was such a whirlwind that I can only remember who made a couple of them - so sorry ladies!
