P.S. You're The Best

This is my fearless leader, Lorri Heiling's swap card from our team meeting this week.  Isn't it cute?  The stamp set is P.S. You're The Best on page 48 of the annual catalog.

The "file folder" is make using the Envelope Punch Board and a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock.  The typewriter is stamped onto Basic Black with either VersaMark or Craft White and sprinkled with White Embossing Powder and heat set with the Heat Tool.

Can you see the score lines at the fold?  I should have taken a better picture, but there are two extra score lines to make it look like a real file folder that can be folded along another score line to hold more stuff.

Inside she stamped again with stamps from the same set.

Great Job Lorri.  I may have to give in and get this stamp set after all!  So many possibilities with this one.

Thank you for looking in today!  Happy Hump Day.

Ho Ho Ho Make and Take

Here was our Make and Take from our Monday night weSTAMP Team Meeting.  It seems Lorri Heiling (my wonderful upline) and I, think alike, because my swap for the meeting used the "file folder" technique and the Santa's List stamp set!  

This card really came out nice and was very easy to make.  A word of warning though on the HO HO HO.... one of the girls at my table made a little mistake and the first flap said "OH OH OH" and the other one said "HO HO HO".  We all had a good laugh over it!  LOL

Card Stock:  Real Red, Whisper White, Crumb Cake (?)
DSP:  Season of Style, Silver Glimmer Paper
Stamps:  Santa's List (w-131808 / c-131811), Oh, Goodie! (w-131886 / c-131889)

Envelope Punch Board (and so much more!)

Stampin' Up! has a great new toy, I mean... tool for us to play with, drats... use.  (tee hee).  This great little tool can make up to 66 different sized envelopes, quick and easy!  Beyond that though, there are some wonderful Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who are amazingly creative and have figured out how to do so much more than envelopes.

The one I'm showing today is a File Folder Card made from the Envelope Punch Board.  I learned the details from Patty Bennett where she has a wonderful video on how to use the Punch Board to make file folders.  I'm working on making a picture tutorial that I will share as soon as I complete it.  For a great video though, check out Patty's blog.

Until then, check out the cute card I made using the Envelope Punch Board:  I love it!  It's so much fun to use and I see me making even more of them for all occasions.
