Time Well Spent Card & Bookmark

Well, it has been awhile! Life threw us a few bumps the past few months and stamping was on the back burner. But now I am back!
This card will be one we make this month at my Stamp Camp.
Cut Ruby Red Cs 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Groovy Guava 10.5 x 4 scored at 5 1/4 and then on one end 1 1/4
Take guard off your SU corner rounder and use it to make scallops. Use corner rounder to scallop the edges of cs where you scored at 1 1/4. Fold flap over -
Use 1 1/4 circle punch and make 1/2 circle punch out (see the picture with the clip next to it?)
I used Ginger Blossoms designer paper - cut at 4x4.
Then giant paper clip - I used Time Well Spent and colored with markers and blender pens. Used Glue dots to attach to paper clip. Then slide the paper clip inside the card and it falls into half circle. The paper clip is just tucked inside the card - not "clipped" onto it.
Happy Stamping! Thanks for looking!

Time Well Spent

Stampin' Up! sent us a new stamp set!!! It is a level 3 Hostess set that will be in the next catalog. I decided to do Splitcoast Stampers Sketch Challenge 150 with it and play some...
The first thing I saw when I opened the stamp set was the big flower -I thought what a great thing to make POP with some added layers!!!! Well, you know sometimes I get a little crazy with the layering - but I always like the way it looks. LOL
I used the 1/8th hole punch for the little circles and white gel pen to highlight areas. Thanks for looking!

A Fall Challenge


Well, I started watercoloring this project a year ago. I saw this stamp and fell in love with it...but then the season passed and I never completed the project. Have you ever done that!? I have tons of UFO's (unfinished objects) in my office. LOL
Well, I combined my friend Debby's sketch challenge with this card. Pulled it out and finished watercoloring it. I used the Twinkling H20's along with my water color crayons and Aquapainter. The SU stamp set I used was All in a Row and their Hostess set So Many Sayings...the paper is Gypsy Harvest and I used copper brads.
Thanks for looking! Have a fabulous day!

Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge WSC27
http://beate.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/category/weekend-sketch-challenge/Here it is! Check out Beate's weekend Sketch Challenge (picture is below.) After a VERY stressul and busy week, I took today to stamp and rejuvenate. We will be making the middle cards at Stamp Camp this week. I will post directions for the Star Pattern on the card which uses the Stampin' Up! Tag Punches, large and small. This also uses the Stampin' Up! DP which is on sale this week. For more information, contact me or if you have another SU Demonstrator, contact her. ;) Thanks for looking and have a fabulous day!
