USING STAMPIN' UP'S! BEAUTIFUL DESIGNER PAPER

Okay my stamping friends, it's that time of year when the new 2018-2019 SU Big Catalog will be out with totally new designer paper, which I can guarantee you are going to love.  If you are like me, I still have lots of designer paper left over from this year (and, yes, some I want to save for my scrapbooking).  I have some beautiful samples to really make some WOW projects/cards using your designer paper.  I have 2 tri-fold card samples (Ronda Wade provided the instructions) and another project I made by updating my older Mini Buckle Purse previously deigned in 2006 that holds up to 8 notecards (3" x 3") and envelopes.  I hope you like them as much as I did making them (so easy and fun)!!

Actually, I had a hard time using this beautiful Share What You Love Specialty Designer Paper because it is so beautiful and is brand new from the Share What You Love promotion going on for customers until the end of May -- but coming in the new catalog.  I call this a Mini Buckle Purse to hold 8 notecards and envelopes -- it is so beautiful in person.  I used the new Share What You Love Stamp Set on all of it, except the "Happy Birthday" sentiment that comes from the Happy Birthday Gorgeous Stamp Set being carried over to the new catalog. 

I had so much fun creating this Tri-Fold card, using the retiring Painted With Love Specialty Designer Series Paper, the You've Got Style Stamp Set (carrying over to the new catalog), and Blender Pens.

Here are pictures of the matching envelope, the first fold on the front of the card, the second fold in the center, and the back fold.  This card was made in less than 5 minutes and 5 more minutes coloring the front.

Here is another sample of a Tri-Fold Card using the new Share What You Love Stamp Set and the retiring Sweet Soiree Specialty Designer Series Paper.

Here is what the inside folds look like.
Now take out your designer paper and show it off in your cards and projects -- there will be newer and better product next year to play with!!

Until next time,
Sandi

I AM FALL!!


Don't you just love Michigan's Fall season!!  I really wish it would stay this way all year long.  I don't think I would ever get bored with just this one season -- preferably, just the month of September!  It has been a really laid-back week for me, and I'm loven' every bit of it!!  I can't even think of one outrages thing that I have done, which is probably a first for me to go a whole week without something goofy happening.  I probably shouldn't even admit to this because technically I still have one day left for the week. 

Today's post will be more pictures from my presentation, "I AM FALL," at Ronda Wade's Creative Convention.  See my previous post for more information on my presentation.  The picture at the top of this post was used for my table banner at the Convention (all of the presenters created banners to identify what they were doing for their presentation).

I created this table setting (excuse the piece of lint on this picture, just noticed) based on the measurements of the "Season of Sweets Designer Kit," on page 15, of the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.  I needed a pocket with depth to hold the napkin and tableware -- so this was perfect!!  Product included:  Orchard Harvest Designer Fabric and Designer Paper, Silver Setting  and Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Sets, Pewter Embossing Powder, Framelits Labels Collection, Festive Paper-Piercing Pack, Early Espresso Classic Ink, and Crumb Cake Card Stock.  (Of course the leaf embellishments are another story to come.)

To go with my table setting is a party favor box with note cards inside.  Besides the above product, I used:  Kraft Gift Box, Designer Naturals Buttons, Jumbo Sticky Rounds, and Island Indigo Card Stock.

Here is a close-up picture of the flower on top of my box and leaves.

Okay, this is my goofy thing I did at Convention -- I forgot to take the note cards out of the box for my display!!  So hopefully some of  attendees will come to my blog to see them -- LOL!!  I love designing these boxes so had to make two of them for my table.  Once you make one, you just can't stop, plus I use these little note cards a lot for gifts.  I used the same Stampin' Up! product as above for the card box, just different design.  Product used for the note cards:  Very Vanilla Card Stock; Stampin' Spritzer (with Early Espresso Classic Ink); French Foliage Stamp Set; and for the sentiments:  Lacy and Lovely, Petite Pairs, Just Believe, and Elements of Style Stamp Sets. 
Okay, that about does it for me today.  I hope I don't bore you with all of my Fall projects that I will be sharing this month.

Until next time,
Sandi
