Hinged Card

Posted on May 14, 2009 by Josee

I started a new stampers club this month and we made two really fun projects! One of the projects we made this fun Hinged card…I love how easy it is to make and it can double as a gift card holder too!  

Directions

1. Stamp the greeting on the upper right hand area of the Barely Banana card base using Basic Gray.
2. Create a scalloped edge on the Basic Gray Cardstock using the Scallop Edge Punch. Randomly stamp the circles from Seeing Spots using Basic Gray Classic Ink. 
3. Wrap the Apricot Appeal Grosgrain Ribbon around the Certainly Celery cardstock. Tie a knot using the smaller piece of ribbon.
4. Without adhering, line up the Basic Gray Bottom and Certainly Celery Top onto the Barely Banana Base, you should not see any Barely Banana at this point.  Mark with a pencil or hold the area where the Celery and Gray overlap. Holding together, punch the hole where your brad will go to create your hinge.
5. Apply Adhesive to the Basic Gray portion only, along the bottom and sides.  (Do not add adhesive to the top part!)  This will allow the Certainly Celery Hinge to move up and down.
6. Stamp the image using Basic Gray Classic Ink onto the Whisper White Cardstock and colour with Blender Pens and Classic Ink. Colour the inside of the flower with the Chocolate Chip Marker. Adhere to the Certainly Celery & Barely Banana layers. 
7. Adhere the stamped image to the front of the card to help keep the hinged portion in place.
 
Measurements
4 ¼ by 5 ½ for base
4 ¼ by 3 for Top “hinged” portion
4 ¼ by 3 ½ for Bottom with scallop edge
1 ¾ by 2 for stamped image (layers are ¼ larger)

Two new May events!

Posted on May 12, 2009May 11, 2009 by Josee

I have barely recovered from my weekend. I ran in the Where’s Franktown run and I am NOT a runner what so ever. My daughter out ran me the whole time, how sad for me. We  ran 5km and about half way through my knee started to hurt…of course I kept going and a few hours after the run I barely could walk. It took about 2 days before I was able to walk properly again. I think before next year’s run I should actually train, don’t you?

I’m getting organized again this week with my business…and I’ve added these two great events to my calendar:  

1) Demonstrator Information Night a la Chocolate
DATE: Monday May 25th 7pm 
RSVP now
COST: Free
WHERE: Josee’s stamping Studio, Kanata
DETAILS: Attend this no-pressure evening where I’ll treat you to some real chocolate and all the information you need to decide whether Stampin’ Up! is right for you! This month you can start your own business for only $99 and this is a "job" you can’t be let go from! Be your own boss and make up your own hours while having a fun and profitable business.

There are many reasons why becoming a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator  may be right for you, chocolate just might be one of them!

C is for the cash we earn

H is for the hours we choose to work

O is for the opportunities available

C is for the all-expense paid cruise we can earn each year

O is for the oodles of fun we have

L is for the love of stamping we share

A is for the awards we can earn all the time!

T is for the tax advantages for our families

E is for the self esteem we build

If you’d like to taste some of this low-calorie, low-carb CHOCOLATE, make sure you attend my Information evening or contact me  for more information! 

Remember, you can join this month for only $99! Don’t wait! 


 

2) Express Card Class
DATE: Tuesday May 26th  7pm 
WHERE: Josee’s Stamping Studio
COST: $15 or free with $50 placed that night

DETAILS: Need your "stamping fix", but, don’t have time for a long and detailed class? In this class, you’ll make 3 fun & simple cards or projects in less than 1.5 hours. We’ll be using some great new products from the Occassions Mini! You have the opportunity to get this class for free with a $50 order from the catalogue!
