Happy Snail Mail!

Friday, July 31, 2020
Do you like Snail Mail? Also known as Happy Mail!!
Perhaps you remember this fun card I showed in an earlier post using the WAY TO GOAT stamp set.
I was inspired by the marionette scene on The Sound Of Music
I posted it on the Demonstrator Planning Place Facebook page for Stampin' Up! demonstrators only and it got some rave reviews from other demonstrators. 
One gal in particular (Delys) commented that she ws going to purchase the stamp set and make a card and send it to me! How sweet! Little did I know that Delys lives in New Zealand!
Talk about feeling honored!!
And what a cute card she made, too!!

Special Order

Thursday, July 30, 2020
Many times I will get a special order for a card.
This time I was asked for a card that had 2 Adirondack chairs sitting as though the people were enjoying the Lake Michigan beaches.
I saw a card on Pinterest by Jacque Williams (no blog link) so set making it my own.
I had some friends over to stamp that day and one liked it so well and said it would be perfect for an anniversary card for a family member who had a home by the lake. BINGO! Now I could make another card for her! What a win-win situation!!
Here is what I did:
 Card Base: Crumb Cake card stock 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" scored at 4-1/4"
                    Pool Party 5-1/8" x 3-7/8" and 5" x 3-3/4" and embossed with the wood grain embossing
                    folder
                    Layering Circles Dies in Crumb Cake and Water Color Paper
                    Wood grain designer paper - cut 2 Adirondack chairs from the Colorful Season Dies
                    (retired)
                    Burlap Trim and Mini Gold Sequin Trim (both retired)
Water color the beach images using Crumb Cake, Pacific Point & Balmy Blue.

Just a little fun to brighten your day: Our ShihTzu/Bichon mix 3 year old pup, Lucy, delivered 6 puppies yesterday. We are so in love already
It was a "Happy Days" kind of day at the Waite Estate!
Meet Fonzi, Richie, Joanie, ChaChi, Ralph & Pinky. Hard to see them all, but they are huddled right in the protection of mama Lucy! She did such a great job - taking 2 hours and 20 minutes. Needless to say, she is exhausted.
I'm sure you will be seeing many photos as they start to grow and change.

Where Do You Get Your Inspiration From?

Wednesday, July 29, 2020
A while back my Stampin' Up! team took a shocking blow when one of our members passed away very unexpectedly.
We all chipped in and were able to purchase some wonderful gifts in remembrance for her husband and her grand kids.
Just last week we received a beautiful thank you from her husband.
As a stamper I find inspiration in nearly everything, so immediately I wanted to give this a try using the new FOREVER FERN Stamp Set
I stamped my images onto a piece of IN GOOD TASTE Designer Paper using these colors:
Soft Seafood
Pear Pizzazz
Garden Green
Rich Razzleberry (for a pop of color)
The thank you comes from the stamp set SO SENTIMENTAL. I used my Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to ink up only the Thank You portion of the stamp and cut it our with the Stitched Rectangle Dies.
Basic Black Card Stock to back it measures 1-3/16" x 2-1/2"
And then there is another Stitched Rectangle Die
I didn't pop anything up - I didn't think it needed it, but I did add 3 little rhinestones, and gave it a good spritz with the champagne shimmer paint mixed with Rubbing alcohol.
I'm really liking how it turned out and I plan to use it for an upcoming class

Zany Zebras

Tuesday, July 28, 2020
This is a card that we made a couple weeks ago at the Come Stamp With Me Tuesday Class and was
Card inspired byTatiana
This card is so soft and fun, and the little zebras add such a whimsical flare.
In a couple weeks we will be making another fun Zany Zebra card at the Come Stamp With Me Class. This one was inspired by Robyn Cardon, and I have a few different colors of designer paper for the ladies to choose from.

Weekly Challenge

Monday, July 27, 2020
Last week's challenge for my team was to make a 3D project - something that they might sell at a craft sale or make as a gift for a friend or family member.
I showed them the note holder that I made
Janell was first to send in her item(s)
She made a couple "Rolling Boxes" that she cased from JanB
She also made this darling little box that fits a cookie or 4 Hershey Chocolate Nuggets
She also made a cute card to coordinate
Lynda made a cute purse using the All Dressed Up Dies. Love the colors!
Vicki made a cute candy treat holder. I'm liking all the candy!
Don't miss out on Bonus Days - though August 3rd
For every $50 spent you get a Bonus Days code for $5.00 off your order placed in August. Check out the details below.
 Carla made a pretty box using the Poppy Designer Paper. A cute little treat box for sure
 But she also made these fun treats for her grandson's birthday party
Barb used the Lots to Love Box Framelits Dies & some of our new plaid Designer paper that is coming out in the Aug-Dec Catalog. I just love the Seaside Spray card stock color. Enjoy it NOW because it will be gone when the new Annual Catalog comes out in May 2021. Yes, you heard me right. The Annual Catalog has a new launch date for May instead of June.  Just giving you a heads up.
Inez made some cute calendar cards
If you want to purchase some of these mini tear-off calendars you check them out HERE
Susan made this file folder card with a easel style post it note holder, 
and some cute gift card holders, 
and I can tell you by experience that gift card holders sell very well at a craft sale.
Debbie made this darling gum treat holder and made the Zany Zebra just like the Fruit Stripe Gum Zebra.
So Cute!
Rachel said that she went with the "good 'ol Sour Cream packet style treat holder"
She used the Today's Tiles Stamp Set to create the designer paper
Anna made a gift box using a card front, and the Cute Fruit Stamp Set. Her colors are Melon Mambo and Garden Green
The last one to come in is from Chris who made this cute Tulip arrangement for her Mom
I decided to try the rolling box that Janell made, so here is my version, but I feel it needs to be dolled up somehow.
I used retired card stock (Lovely Lipstick) and retired Designer Paper. (these boxes take nearly 2 full 12x12 sheets)
Jodie made a cute little Christmas box to hold treats

Team Shares Part 4

Friday, July 24, 2020
Today's team share cards were shared by Anna
A fun Shaker card using Bonanza Buddies Stamp Set. What little kid wouldn't love to get a fun interactive card like this.
 Pretty color choices using the Beautiful Friendship Stamp Set
 Under My Umbrella is the stamp set Anna used for this card
Just a note - perfect! I love the Music From the Heart stamp set and was sad when it didn't carry over to the Annual Catalog
 Taco 'bout AWESOME!  Super fun card using Witty-cisms Stamp Set that was in the January-June Catalog.  Anna added some Fine Tip Glue Pen glue to the taco shells so that they have a gloss.
Field of Flowers is the stamp set that Anna used for this off-set card - very nice!
Anna also took charge of our Make & Take for this meeting and we made these cute Post-It Note holders. She decided to theme it around the "Share Sunshine" theme that the June Paper Pumpkin was all about. The stamp set is Painted Poppies with the colors being Daffodil Delight and Crushed Curry.
She even purchased the Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes and coordinated it to match the Post-It Note Holder. She tucked the Post-It in the box and added some yellow themed candies and treats and it will be a perfect gift to give someone to brighten their day. Great job, Anna!
