Welcome to the first day of the rest of my stamping career! As of today, being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is my only job!
I thought I'd start by posting a video tutorial of me making a card. To some of you, this card looks familiar. I designed this card for my open house last weekend. What a fun, simple card! I cranked out a dozen of these for this week's downline meeting.
Here are the supplies I used:
Wild Wasabi Card Stock (5-1/2"x8-1/2")
Whisper White Card Stock (5-1/4"x4" and 2-1/2"x3")
I was snowed in yesterday and around 5pm I finally got myself into my classroom to start stamping! I decided to sit down and make my hostess gifts for the month of March. I made a version of these same gifts for my February hostesses and they were a hit! Here are the supplies I used to make these hostess gifts:
Silver Skinny Tin (available in the Clearance Rack of my Stampin' Up! website)
Hello everyone! I know, I haven't blogged in awhile. I've been getting gentle and some not-so-gentle reminders lately from customers, friends, and my mother who thought I was sick since I hadn't blogged. Nope, I'm still here, I've just been busy. I have been stamping, I just haven't sat down to write about it! So, if all goes as planned, you can look forward to lots of new projects over the next week or so...and hopefully more.
The card I'm sharing with you today is a card I designed for my Stamp Club. Sarah was this month's hostess and specifically requested a Wedding Card that was VERY feminine that used NO GLITTER. I can do that!
Recognize the patterned paper in the background? Nope, I didn't think so. Most people overlook this FABULOUS paper. It's a specialty paper called "Bride" located on page 158 of the 2009-2010 Idea Book and Catalog. There's also a Bridesmaid and a Groom version as well. The Bride paper is Whisper White. I know, you're scratching your head because mine looks Pretty in Pink. Well, you're right! What I love about this paper is that you can brayer color all over the paper and the swirls resist the ink. Now you can make your own, custom-colored paper! Everyone who has gotten to try this technique has loved it.
My husband got me a fabulous video recorder for Valentine's Day, so I'm going to attempt my first video tutorial instead of trying to describe it online. So now, you get to hear me too!!!
Don't laugh...I've already seen about 30 things that I'll do differently in my next tutorial. But, I'm pretty impressed with my first attempt!
If you're curious about the supplies I used on today's sample, here they are:
Everything Nice Stamp Set
Pretty in Pink Card Stock
Soft Suede Card Stock
Shimmery White Card Stock
Bride Specialty Paper (page 158 of the 2009-2010 Idea Book and Catalog)
