VIDEO TUTORIAL: Chalkboard Technique Valentine

hearts a flutter chalk board-stampwithtamiLast night a few gals from my demonstrator group came over and stamped! We had so much fun, we each brought a project for everyone else to make. We call it a "Shoebox Swap", only because we put the project supplies in boxes like shoeboxes, not because we are swapping shoeboxes hahaha. This is a picture of us below.

Today's video was one of the "shoebox" projects, brought by my friend Kathie Rotti. We will be "kickin' it old school" creating this fun and super "hot" chalkboard technique Valentine's Day card.

CARD: Swallowtail Butterfly Beauty

spring-swallowtail-celeste reising-7Today's gorgeous card is from the new Swallowtail Butterfly stamp in the Spring Catalog. This is such a beautiful stamp image, everything in it is gorgeous, and this card is exceptionally striking. Simple too. It is heat embossed in black for the rich color, then colored with coordinating Stampin' Write markers to match the card stock. The color coordination brings the elements on this card come together for a real "WOW".

Created by Celeste Reising.

 

CARD: Feel Goods with Laughter

spring cat-feels good-diane giarrussoThis is a "feel good" card, much like the stamp set used on it, Feel Goods from the new Spring Catalog. The saying is "Laughter is the shortest distance between two people - Victor Borge".

I think the designer paper really makes this card stand out, it's the Birds of a Feather DSP in the annual catalog.

Created by Diane Giarrusso of Diane Stamps.

CARD: Hearts a Flutter – More Amore

hearts a flutter-stampwithtamiI received this card from my up-upline Cherie Manderschied. She always sends the best cards:) This one is great because it's simply, easy, versatile...yet stunning. Qualities I look for when creating a card.

This is a great collaboration of the new Spring Catalog, along with some Sale-a-Bration sprinkled in. The More Amore Specialty Designer paper & Hearts a Flutter framelites from the Spring catalog are the focal point, while the Vine Street SAB impressions folder adds a pop.

CARD: SAB Bloomin’ Marvelous Card

sab-bloomin marvelous-jennifer bainHere is a beautiful card using many of the new Sale a Bration free products including the Bloomin' Marvelous stamp set, Vine Street Impressions Folder and Sycamore Street Ribbon & Button Pack. This card was designed by Jennifer Bain.

VIDEO TUTORIAL: Lobster Watercoloring Card

Yes, I realize it's January but what can I say? I'm from New England and Maine lobsters (or Lobstahs as we say) are as common as burgers and hot dogs in our house lol. Seriously, you have BBQs, we have Lobstah-Qs. So when I saw the By The Tide stamp set in the new Spring Catalog, featuring this fabulous guy, I knew he was first on my list! I wiped out the aqua painters for some watercoloring on my buddy, Larry the Lobstah. I am making these for swaps for Stampin' Up!'s upcoming Leadership event.
