OnStage Card Swap…Day 1

One of the things I love about attending Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage events is getting together with my stamping friends and swapping cards.  Here are some of the cards I received. *Each of these cards are made with items that are retiring.  If you see something you like, order now before it’s too late!

Susan used the Tutti-frutti Designer Series Paper and Layering Love Stamp set.  I love the large sentiments in this stamp set.  It will be retiring in May so grab it now while you still can! You can check out the other sentiments in this set in the product list below.

Nancy used Butterflies Thinlits and Garden in Bloom Stamp Set to create this fun card.  The thinlits, stamp set, and Fluttering Embossing Folder used on the envelope are retiring.  Get them before they “fly” away! Here’s a peek at the inside of this card.

I love the way Nancy cut out the circle on the front of the card and had the butterfly wings peeking through! So creative!

Card Created by Karen Hallam

Karen used the Watercolor Wings Stamp Set and Bold Butterfly Framelits Die to create this beautiful card.  This butterfly stamp set and Framelits are also retiring! I love all the layers and texture on this card!

Stampin Up Flower Shop Thank You card idea - For ideas, ordering, and more, visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Card Created by Mary Anne Schnettgoecke

This thank you card created by Mary Anne is sure to brighten anyone’s day!  I absolutely love the Flower Shop Stamp Set and matching Pansy Punch and I may shed a few tears over these retiring. I have used them for all different occasions! I love the way Mary Anne heated embossed the flowers with white embossing powder then watercolored such bright and cheery colors. She used my favorite paper too, Shimmery White. Thank goodness the paper is sticking around!!!

Stampin Up Country Livin' Masculine Birthday card idea - for inspiration, ordering, and more visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Card Created by Anne-Marie Schofer

Anne-Marie made matching red tags for all the PALS attending the event.  She is just the sweetest and is from my home state of Massachusetts! She used the Country Livin’, Guy Greetings, and Hardwood Stamp sets to create this masculine birthday card using the masking technique. For some reason I want to sing “These boots were made for walking..” The Guy Greetings stamp set used on this card is retiring but Hardwood and Country Livin’ will be in the new annual catalog.

I hope this showcase of cards has inspired you today!  Check back tomorrow to see more beautiful cards I received.  Be sure to check out the retiring items below so you don’t have any regrets later!

J is for Joy

Welcome to my Holiday ABC series! J is for Joy and today’s card brings me that! Yesterday I shared highlights from my weekend away with some of my fellow demonstrator friends.  I am still smiling from all the fun we had.  One thing we like to do when we get together is a shoe box swap.  We each design a card to share and put everything needed to make it in a shoe box. Then everyone makes each others card.  This card was designed by Rosanne Mulhern (Heartfelt Stamping). I had so much fun making it.

Stampin Up Perfect Pines and Large Letters Framelits Christmas card idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp

I love the Large Letters Framelits dies! I admit they are a bit of an investment but once I bought them I have used them for so many cards and projects!  They are great for personalizing or monogramming cards, tags, or gift bags. I used them for an accordion fold card I shared previously that I made for Mother’s Day. (You can see that project HERE.)

Today’s card features a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 Cherry Cobbler card base which is scored at 4 1/4.  The next layer measures 4 x 5 1/4 and is stamped with the Woodgrain Stamp in Crumb Cake ink. JOY is cut from the Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper and could be added to the Basic Black layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals; however, for this card it is layered on top of craft foam that was also cut with the Large Letters Framelits and adhered with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. The pines were cut from Old Olive cardstock using the Pretty Pines Thinlits and adhered with glue dots.

The inside sentiment is from Snowflake Sentiments and is stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink.  The layer of DSP and black cardstock adds the finishing touch to tie it all together.

Black  may not be a traditional color for Christmas but it sure looks striking with the Cherry Cobbler and Christmas pines. I love it! Here’s a photo of Rosanne with her card from our stamping weekend.
