How do they do that?! The "impossible bottle" is a bottle that has an object inside it that does not appear to fit through the mouth of the bottle. The ship in the bottle is a traditional example, and in the case of this card maybe the easiest "ship in a bottle" to create since all you really have to do is "stamp it" in there lol.
This card is more than a sailors dream, any sea-lover would enjoy it's creativity. Created with the Open Sea stamp set (#123030 wood, #123032 clear mount).Ship in a Bottle Card

August 19, 2012 by
Here's another great card from one of my new favorite stamp sets: Need for Speed set (#122715 wood, #122717 clear mount). Yesterday I posted a video using the airplane. This was a display sample I saw at Stampin' Up convention, the car was stamped repeatedly, without re-inking for the "motion" effect.
VIDEO TUTORIAL: Fighter Jet Plane Love
August 18, 2012 by
Sky-writing some love today in a tribute to our military pilots, my Grampy included. Whether Air Force, Navy or just a jet plane lover (I know a few) this card will be a big hit! The plane from the Stampin' Up! Need for Speed set (#122715 wood, #122717 clear mount) looks close to the F-18 fighter jets my kids and I love to watch. My video tutorial demonstrates how to create this high flying fun, originally designed by Vicky Hayes.Hello Doily Sympathy Card
August 17, 2012 by
This is a beautiful sympathy card, created with the Hello, Doily background stamp (#122845 wood, #122847 clear mount). The sentiment is from the Word Play stamp set (#120308 wood, #120651 clear mount). The ink color is Soft Suede on Very Vanilla card stock. Very soft and elegant.Hello Kitty Card
August 14, 2012 by
Hello Kitty is one of the most recognized characters, and now...she's a card! With just a few punches, she's complete. Love the red glimmer paper, the perfect effect for the bow. The bow was created with our old butterfly punch and a circle, but you can create a very similar bow with the heart punch (twice).World Treasure Peacock Card
August 13, 2012 by
Peacocks are famous for their showy feathers, and this World Treasures stamp set (#126765 wood, 126767 clear mount) set is a lot of fun to "show off". The words are from the new Sweet Essentials stamp set (#126455 wood, 126457 clear mount).

August 2, 2012 by
Another video tutorial from my "what I did on my summer vacation" series. Nothing says summer like the beach, sand, surf and footprints in the sand. This card takes the Baby Prints Stamp Set "outside the box" and into the ocean lol.

VIDEO TUTORIAL: Campfire Card
July 30, 2012 by
Come on baby light my fire...been missing my video tutorials? I've been missing doing them. I'm happy to say that I'm back after a fantastaic summer break, and have sooo many ideas to film, it's hard to know where to start. So why not start with "what I did on my summer vacation" - this card sums a lot of it up...camping, fires AND convention! Stampin' Up! Convention that is. What does a campfire have to do with convention? This was a swap I did for convention a couple of weeks ago. It was even featured on SU's facebook (wahoo).Providence, RI Regional Event – Aug 25

July 25, 2012 by
I don't know how they do it, but every year Stampin' Up!'s annual convention just gets better and better! I just got back from Salt Lake City, and the most amazing week with friends (old and new). The theme was "I am..." am you are to fill in the blank. Be sure to check out the video below, the them e song is so catchy. Stampin' Up is a company about creativity, and individuality. I love that they embrace our differences. One of my favorite parts of convention each year is getting to share it with my group, I love these gals so much!Everything Eleanor Part V
July 23, 2012 by
Another wonderful Everything Eleanor Stamp Set (#124162 wood, 124164 clear) idea I picked up at a recent Stampin' Up event on display. I love the stamped and textured background idea. The textured background is from the Vintage Wallpaper impressions folder #120175.Bordering on Romance Part II

This is a fun way to do a scented card, using the Bordering on Romance stamp set (#125480 wood, #125482 clear mount) and the sachet of scented herbs also makes for a cool window card. Circle punches layer to make the window. Window and Modern label punches layer for greeting with the Fabulous Phrases stamp set #117002 wood, 120501 clear mount.Raining Flowers Card
