Stampin' Up! Wedding Idea

One of my friends, Deb, is getting married in October.  And like most brides, she is working within a budget.
Well we saved her a ton of money making these beautiful wedding invitations.

Greenhouse Garden is the set we used, with pretty in pink and melon mambo.  The white organza ribbon is the perfect elegant touch.

All of the the information was printed on the computer.
Deb's wedding is going to be fabulous!  And these invitations are just one of the personalized touches she added.

If you need help designing your wedding invitations, party favors, banners, and more, I'd love to help you come up with just what you're looking for.  I've helped lots of ladies plan their perfect wedding and I can help you too.

Stampin' Up!'s Flight of the Butterfly Card Idea

Here is the make and take from my workhsop last week.

We used the Flight of the Butterfly stamp set with Apricot Appeal, Dusty Durango, Soft Suede and Gable Green.

The new butterfly punch coordinates perfectly with this set and makes creating dimensional butterflies a snap!

So many fun ideas!  You learn lots of great projects when you host a Stampin' Up! workshop with me... and you get to keep everything I make!  Get yours scheduled today! :)

Big Shot Fancy Favor Die & Flight of the Butterfly

These little treats are so much fun to make!
And these 2 accessories are perfect compliments for each other... The Big Shot Fancy Favor Die and the Curly Label Punch.
The butterflies from the Flight of the Butterfly set make a sweet pattern to the apricot appeal cardstock.  I stamped the small butterfly in apricot ink and the larger one in dusty durango.

To tie the treat closed, I used the 3/4" circle punch and tied it with the FABULOUS new polka dot ribbon.  Add the curly label tag and viola!  Super sweet treat--filled with ..................................CHOCOLATE! :)
The ladies at my workshop last week loved this idea. How about you!

Tomorrow's post... their make and take from last week!
See you back :)

Stampin' Up! Autumn Days Card Idea #2

As promised, here is the second card from my workshop last week, using the Autumn Days stamp set.

Creating a frame with the leaf stamp from this set really help to make a fabulous focal point.  And these 3 new in-colors are perfect for a fall theme. 

I love the fun touch of punching out a greeting with the modern label punch... this punch is a must have ladies!

Have a Happy September!

Stampin' Up! Autumn Days Card Idea

Here is a fun ideas I came up with for a workshop demo last week using the Autumn Days stamp set.  This is a great guy card for any occasion.

It was so easy to do!

I punched a hole in a piece of scrap paper using the 3/4" circle punch.  Then, I laid the scrap paper over top of the white cardstock and sponged dusty durango ink in the hole to create the sun.  I removed the template, and sponged just a bit more durango ink around the sun to recreate the radiating effect.  Then I sponged crushed curry ink over the whole sky area.  For the ground, I sponged soft suede.

To create the phesant, I inked my stamp with the new in-color markers--dusty durango, bermuda bay and soft suede.  Then stamped it on the cardstock.

The spiral punch along the edge of the suede cardstock adds a fun dimension too.

If you are looking for a great nature/masculine set... this is the perfect new set to have.  Watch for another card idea with this set tomorrow.
