Camper Card

This card is a little bit of a cheater card, but it's just too cute not to share!  This was one of the cards we made on Saturday at our Team Regional.  The adorable trailer was cut using a die cutting machine that Lorri has.  There were a lot of little pieces to put together, but it was really fun!


Recipe:
Emerald Envy - 11" x 4 1/4", scored and folded at 5 1/2"
Pick a Pattern Designer Series Paper - 5 1/4" x 4"
Stitched Shapes Circle - 3 15/16" (or best as I can measure)

Now, since we don't have access to the cute trailer pieces, how about doing some fussy cutting and snip out something fun from the Pick a Pattern DSP.  The Moose, the Bear any of the pieces that aren't already visible.


Inside - 5 1/4" x 4" Whisper White - with a row of flowers stamped across the bottom.


Come back tomorrow for more fun from our Saturday adventure!

Coming Soon... and the Card of the Day

Coming Soon.... 2017 Holiday Catalog!  If you are a regular customer of mine, you will be receiving a catalog either in the mail or hand delivered to those nearby.  If you are not currently a customer of mine and you don't already have a Demonstrator, I'd be happy to send one to you.  Just contact me and as soon as I have my hands on them, one will be to you!




As a Demonstrator, I can already see the new catalog online and I can pre-order beginning on Tuesday, August 1st.  Customers can begin ordering on Friday, September 1st.  If you'd like to get in on the pre-order, you could join my team and you'll have one in your hands before you know it and see it online as soon as you're on my team!

Now, on to today's card.  If you recall yesterday, I told you I would be attending our Team Regional event and this is just one of the cards we made.  We each received a beautiful bag with our kits inside, I'll share a picture of that later.  We randomly select the bag color we want, so when we got to this card, some of us received this color (Berry Burst) while others received one of the other In Colors.

Recipe:

Basic Black - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Berry Burst - 4 5/8" x 3 5/8"
Pick a Pattern DSP - 4 1/2" x 3 1/2"

Stamps:  Label Me Pretty
Punches:  Pretty Label Punch, 1 1/4" Circle Punch



Isn't this little bow just adorable?  Even better, it's already tied into a bow and has a small dimensional dot already attached!  They come in all the newest In Colors so they are easily matched up with the cardstock and ink used.


Thank you for looking in today.  Have a Blessed Sunday!



I love hearing from you. If you have a question or thoughts to share about today’s post, please, leave a comment.

Tranquil Tulips part 2

Here is part two from yesterday's card.  I decided to save it for today instead since I knew I probably wouldn't have time to make anything Friday night for posting today. 

Today, I will be spending the day with my upline team making cards, sharing a swap card in a contest and making friends with the new gals who have joined.  I would love to have you join us too, even if you aren't in the Phoenix area, kits can be made and sent.


Recipe:
Sahara Sand - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Berry Burst - 5" x 3 3/4"
Whisper White - 4 3/4" x 3 1/2"

Normally I would have popped up the Whisper White layer with Stampin' Dimensionals, but this time, I decided to pop up the Berry Burst.  I like how it looks, what do you think?


Okay, off I go to get ready for an early morning stamping event!

Have a wonderful Saturday - enjoy the day!

Tranquil Birthdays

This has to be one of my favorite flower sets.  If you like tulips, then this is the set for you.  Only one color is needed for the flower.  For this one, I used Berry Burst.  The lighter "back" side of the flower is stamped off once before stamping onto the paper.  The darker smaller "front" is stamped directly without stamping off.

The stems are Tranquil Tide, both colors used are from this year's newest In Color inks.  So pretty!


There is one problem with this flower set however.  It is a hostess set, which means you can only get this set by being a hostess.  Now don't panic, you don't have to clean your house or make treats and have friends over (although that is always fun!), you can simply ask me for a Hostess Code and then take 30 days to put in an order or have your friends order from your "hostess code" so you get the credit.

You qualify for hostess benefits with as little as $150.00 in orders.  $150 will give you  $15.00 to spend and this Hostess Set costs $10.00 (only with hostess dollars).  The more that is ordered, the more you can earn.  At the end of the 30 days, you can "close" your party and select free merchandise based on how much you and your friends spend during the month.  


Recipe:  
Sahara Sand - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Whisper White - 5" x 3 3/4"
Whisper White Strip (actually was just leftover from cutting the white above) - 5" x 1"

Ink:  Berry Burst, Tranquil Tide, Memento Black

Stamps - Tranquil Tulips (hostess set), Milestone Moments (happy birthday)

Contact me if you'd like more information on hosting a party, even if it is just an online party or having friends over for some snacks and stamping!


Remember Bonus Days ends on July 31, 2017 - earn Bonus Coupons to be used in August!


Thank you for looking in today.  So happy it's Friday!

Have a wonderful Day!

~ Donna
