Blast from the Past: Father’s Day card

Posted on June 14, 2013June 14, 2013 by Josee

This week, I haven't had much time to prep for Father's day (don't tell my hubby) since I've been really busy getting ready for my Mega Stamp Day- Summer Party. I cannot wait to stamp with some awesome ladies…we always have so much fun.

I love this event so much, the ladies get to stamp 20 cards and come away with a good bag of $20+ of products. I've seen a sneak peek of the Holiday catalogue already and am already planning my Mega Stamp Day- Holiday Party.

So for today, I thought I'd bring back a card that I had posted year's ago…though the designer paper might be retired, the idea still works!

You will find fabulous instructions shared by Brenda (QBee) on SCS: Download instructions here

Fun with Stampin’ Up! Sponges

Posted on June 12, 2013June 10, 2013 by Josee

It's Wednesday and this means it's my turn for Stampin' Girls Gone Wild! I had so much fun creating this card and playing with such a simple stamping tool- SPONGES!

The sponges come 3 per pack and I like to cut each one up into 8 little pie shaped pieces. I've started to label them so that I can keep organized and make sure that they stay with the same ink colour.

I've used a fun new stamp set called Happy Day that has a nice mix of images and greetings and created a background with Island Indigo, Marina Mist & Early Espresso ink.

I think the gold embossed butterflies really make a lovely touch to this card…don't they look so magical?!

Here are the supplies I used on today’s project:

STAMP SETS: Happy Day Stamp Set c#130297/ w#130294
PAPER: Whisper White #100730; Island Indigo #122928; Sahara Sand #121043
INK: Early Espresso #126974; Versamark #102283; Marina Mist #126962; Island Indigo #126986
ACCESSORIES: Crumb Cake Seam Binding #122332; Gold Embossing Powder #109129; Heat Tool #129053; Stampin' Sponge #101610; Corner Rounder Punch #119871; Elegant Butterfly Punch #127526; Dimensionals #104430; Pearls #119247
