Scrappy Saturday: Halloween Project Life Style

I told you I would be back….of course it’s Saturday so I also have my Scrappy Saturday project to share.  I decided to change things up and not use My Digital Studio for today’s page (don’t worry I have another layout to share soon) but today I’m embracing the Project Life style of memory keeping.  Stampin’ Up! sells some great products to help make your memory keeping quick and fun.  What’s also great is you can use our traditional products as well with this approach.  I recently participated in a demonstrator swap where we made our own Project Life cards using our Stampin’ Up! products.  Today’s page uses the two cards I made for this swap, perfect for Halloween and I designed them to coordinate so I was able to finish the page in less than 5 minutes. 

I like my layouts to have dimension and with our framelits, ribbon, baker’s twine, and stamps I was able to create pocket inserts that match my need and have the extra layers and texture I enjoy.

Below is a list of products used on today’s layout and pocket inserts:

Even if you aren’t into traditional or digital scrapbooking the Project Life approach is so fun and easy you should give it a try.  Stampin’ Up! has released some new limited edition projects for the Daily December memory keeping and I’m giving it a try and would love to show you how to take all those fabulous pictures you have on your phone (let’s be honest how often do they come off your phone to a medium you can enjoy in the future??) and into an album to enjoy and cherish.

Take care,

Diana

30-Day Gratitude Card Challenge: Day 15

Our chilly weekend has started and I always love Saturday’s.  Have lots on my to do list and then we’re heading out tonight for the Snowflake Stampede and looking forward to seeing the Christmas lights in Bull Run park before it opens to the public (just need to dress in lots of layers so we stay warm, last time we did this we were freezing!!1)  I have two different posts today for lots of fun, first off is my card for the 30-Day Gratitude challenge.  I decided to change things up today and not go with a theme but an every occasion card that’s the workhorse of your card stash.  I also love how you can add a few accessories and designer series paper and let them be the focus so you can make this card in no time.  I started with Blushing Bride for the case base and added a piece of Whisper White cardstock that’s embossed with the Big Shot and Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder.  I added a piece of Flowerpot DSP (these flowers are so soft and pretty) and edged it along the bottom with a piece of Garden Green cardstock that was punched with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border.  Along the top I added a piece of Crushed Curry Chevron Ribbon.

For the accent piece I took a piece of Lost Lagoon cardstock and embossed it with the Big Shot and new Fun Frames Embossing Folder and just used my Paper Snips to trim around the embossed edge.  The greeting is from the Blooming with Kindness stamp set and is stamped in Tangerine Tango on Whisper White before attaching it to the accent piece.

It’s great to just use a few simple and fun tools and get a really cool effect.  Are you playing along with my challenge?  Remember if you play along and post your card either in a comment on my blog or on my Facebook business page I’m going to do a drawing at the end of the month for FREE blog candy.  Remember, you can’t win if you don’t play!

Sketch Frenzy Friday Sketch Challenge and 30-Day Gratitude Challenge: Triple Stamping Fun

It’s Friday, whoo hoo!  Today I’m sharing my card for the Sketch Frenzy Friday card sketch, along with my 30-Day Gratitude challenge.  This was a fun challenge, instead of a sketch we were provided with the triple stamping technique as our inspiration.  When I saw this I knew the Fall Fest stamp set would be perfect for this technique.  The key to this technique is to cut the layers and then attach them together with a small amount of adhesive and then stamp your images.  When you add the mats to each of the layers it covers up any issues you have stamping around the layer boarders and shows images that look continuous across the layers.  I stamped the leaves in Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss, and Crushed Curry ink.  The cardbase is Cajun Craze and I added mats in Crushed Curry and Mossy Meadow.

The greeting is from the Merry Everything stamp set and I used Stampin’ Write Markers to color in the stamp before stamping on Very Vanilla cardstock.  I punched the greeting out with the coordinating Note Tag Punch (you can buy this punch and stamp set as a bundle and save 15%) and then sponged around the edge with Blackberry Bliss ink, used the 1/8” Circle Punch to punch the hole for the ribbon and used some Blackberry Bliss 3/8” Stitched Satin Ribbon so the greeting looks like a gift tag (it’s even attached with dimensionals so it pops off the cardfront).

This is such a fun technique and one you can use with so many stamps that really make a statement.  I want to encourage you to check out the other design team cards and then come play along in the challenge, I'd love to see you creations.

Stampin' Stylin' INKspiration November Blog Hop: Thanksgiving Gratitude

Good morning!  We’re full in the midst of fall and all things that go with getting ready for all the upcoming holidays, starting off with Thanksgiving.  Since it’s the second Thursday of the month it’s time for the Stampin’ Stylin’ INKspiration blog hop and this month is all about gratitude.  I love this theme, and am so thankful so many things in my life, and it’s right in line with the Gratitude challenge I’m currently participating in.

As you hop along, please be sure to comment and show some love on every blog! We are always excited to hear from our followers! You should have just left stop number #2 on the Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration Blog Hop - (Cynthia at Ink-A-Doodle Creations). If so, you are in the right spot. If a link doesn't work or you get off track, you will find the full blog hop lineup below.

I have two projects for you today, but they coordinate and use a lot of the same products, I’ll start with the card.  The cardbase is Soft Suede and I added a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock that was stamped with the Hardwood stamp (using Crumb Cake ink) and then I sponged around the edge with Soft Suede ink for a great distressed look.  The greeting down at the bottom is from the Truly Grateful stamp set and is stamped in Soft Suede ink.

Next I took a paper doily and cut it in half and attached it along one side.   I used the Four Feathers stamp set and coordinating framelits to make the feathers.  The large one is Pool Party, the small stamped feather is Soft Suede and then I added another small feather using Gold Glimmer Paper (you know me, have to have my sparkle!)  I used some Gold Baker’s Twine to tie a double bow and then unraveled the gold strip from the baker’s twine for the bow tails to spread the sparkle.  I used a glue dot to attach the bow to the card.

 

 

Of course I had to make a coordinating gift for this card and used the Polka Dot Tag a Bag’s for a simple packaging that will certainly impress.  I used all the same items from the card and used the Project Life Card Framelit to cut out the greeting and attached the decorative piece to the bag using a Mini Gold Metallic Clothes Pin that’s so fun!

I absolutely love how these turned out (it’s so fun when something turns out better than you envisioned in your head) and may be making more of these.  There are several more designers on the blog hop to give you even more inspiration so I encourage you to continue on along the hop.  Click the next button below to see what Bree’s created, I always love her work.  Remember, if you get lost you can access all the blogs included in the hop from the list below.

30-Day Gratitude Card Challenge: Day 12

Good morning!  I love this fall type of weather (even if it is colder for my morning runs) it’s beautiful this time of year and I find that my projects tend to be inspired by things around me.  So it’s no surprise that today’s gratitude card is fall themed but I had fun with using a non-traditional material for this card.  The cardbase is Soft Suede and I added a piece of Whisper White cardstock and I stamped the greeting from the Truly Grateful stamp set in Cajun Craze ink.  I also added a piece of Color Me Autumn Designer Series Paper that was matted with Mossy Meadow cardstock (and I cut the bottom edge with the Big Shot and the Finishing Touches Edgelit. 

To mimic all the fall leaves I decided to use the Autumn Accents Bigz Die.  For the material for the leaves I used a piece of scrap packing paper I had sitting on my desk.  After cutting it out I used Stampin’ Sponges to sponge color on each of the leaves using Soft Suede, Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, and Crushed Curry ink.  Then I scrunched up the leaves to give them lots of texture before attaching them to the cardfront.   For the acorn I added a top that was cut using the same die and some Champagne Glimmer Paper.

It was so fun to use the packing paper and see how it took the color and provided texture to the card that really stands up off the card front (plus there wouldn’t be an issue mailing it if it got crunched).  What was the latest unusual material did you use on a project?  Would love to hear other ideas.

Fab Friday Color Challenge and 30-Day Gratitude Card Challenge: Happy Watercolor

 Good morning!  We had a great evening watching the Eagles game last night, great game!  I'm back with today's gratitude card and today I decided to play along with the Fab Friday color challenge.  I love the colors the design team selected for this month, perfect for fall, but I decided to use some items that don't immediately make you think fall for a fun twist.  The cardbase is Cajun Craze and then I added layers of Blackberry Bliss and Crushed Curry under the Very Vanilla card front.  For the stamps I used the Happy Watercolor and stamped the different stamps using the challenge colors, nice and simple.  For the fun accent I added a piece of Chevron 5/8" Ribbon that I trimmed along both edges and pulled some of the strings to help distress the ribbon and then added a strip of the Gold Sequin Trim for some bling.

Here's the color combo we provided, I love checking out all the other cards entered in the challenge, it's such a wide variety of ideas using the same inspiration.

Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration November Card Sketch Challenge: Many Merry Stars

It's the start of the another week, can you tell me where that weekend went?  We had a great time in Annapolis checking out the city and my friend and I ran the Across the Bridge 10K run over the Bay Bridge it was a beautiful race that a lot of runners got to enjoy!)  It's the second Monday of the month which mean's over on the Stampin' Stylin' INKspiration blog it's time for the monthly card sketch challenge.  Bree gave us another fun layout and the designers really out did themselves with great inspiration ideas.  I decided to combine this challenge with my 30-Day Gratitude card challenge (I'm doing that a lot this month) and decided to use some Christmas products that are new and haven't seen a lot of love yet.

The cardbase is Garden Green and I added a piece of DSP from the Trim the Tree Designer Series Paper Stack (love all the different colors and patterns in this pack which means lots of fun!)  Next I added a piece of Cherry Cobbler 1" Sheer Linen Ribbon that was attached to the cardfront with Sticky Strip so I could get the ruffled effect.  For the stamped image I used the new Many Merry Stars stamp set from the Holiday Supplement (products in this mini catalog are only available while supplies last) and the medium star was stamped with Garden Green ink on Pistachio Pudding cardstock before being cut out with the Big Shot and Star Collection Framelits.  I stamped the filler star inside with Pistachio Pudding ink.  The greeting is from the Something to Say stamp set and is stamped in Cherry Cobbler Ink.  I attached the star to the cardfront using dimensionals (I actually stacked dimensionals to get extra height to reach over the ribbon).  I used some Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine to tie a bow for the top of the star and attached it with a glue dot.  For a little touch of bling I punched a small star out of Gold Foil Paper using the star punch from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack and attached it to the cardfront .

I love how each element of this card turned out.  Make sure to check out all the other cards the design team is sharing and then come play along with us.

30-Day Gratitude Card Challenge: Day 9

Hello Sunday!  As you read this I’m getting ready to head out to the shuttles to run the Across the Bay 10K (it’s the inaugural running) so I’ll be running across the bridge with 20,000 other crazies looking for fun!  It’s going to be a quick trip since we have a scout meeting at the house this afternoon but I love anytime we can get away, checkout someplace new, and spend some time with the boys.  Of course I didn’t want to leave you hanging for inspiration so here’s today’s gratitude card.  Of course it’s fall themed and has lots of pretties from the Holiday Catalog that you’ll want to make sure to have on hand for all your upcoming projects.  Today’s card started with Crumb Cake for the cardbase and I added a piece of Cajun Craze cardstock that was embossed with the Big Shot and Argyle Embossing Folder (I did also sponge over the cardstock with Crumb Cake ink to help the embossed texture really pop).

For the stamped image I used the Seasonally Scattered stamp set and stamped it in Soft Suede and then used  the outline piece from when I cut out a card piece using the Apothocary Accents  Framelit Die and used it as a mask to sponge inside the image (it’s always great when you can reuse something destined for the trash first).  I sponged in both Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze ink for a nice fall effect.  This piece was matted with Soft Suede cardstock before being attached to the cardfront.  I added a piece of Mossy Meadow 3/8” Stitched Satin Ribbon around the card front and tied a bow.  For some fun textural elements I added a leaf cut out with the Feather Framelit and Gold Glimmer Paper and then added a Autumn Wooden Element at attached both pieces to the ribbon using Gold Baker’s Twine.

I have to admit, this card turned out so pretty, it has just the right amount of bling and fun to really make it special.  I love the leaves and wooden accents this time of year and will definitely be using them on other fall themed projects while I can.

Scrappy Saturday: Historical Monologue Madness

As our adventure continues I wanted to continue sharing my Scrappy Saturday scrapbook pages.  Last wee Aidan had to give a monologue at school on the person he had been researching and writing a paper on, in this case Albert Einstein.  He really got into the idea of dressing up as his character and did a great job (it was so fun being able to go into school to help him get dressed and then watch his presentation).  I made this page using a predesigned template in My Digital Studio and then just added the title and text (the title was actually a comment a friend made on this picture I posted on Facebook and I thought it was perfect.

30-Day Gratitude Card Challenge: Day 8

Good morning!  Looking forward to a beautiful weekend and full of family fun.  Before we head out I wanted to share today’s gratitude card.  I decided to go with a monotone card that’s soft and pretty.   I started with Wisteria Wonder for the cardbase and then added a layer of Whisper White cardstock.  Along the top I stamped flowers from the Petite Petals stamp set.  I also added a piece of Wisteria Wonder DSP from the Subtles Designer Series Paper Stack and layered that with a piece of Wisteria Wonder cardstock that was cut with the Big Shot and the Striped Scallop Thinlit Die (make sure you run the die through your Big Shot several times to make sure get a really good cut to remove all the pieces, just a hint!)  I also added a piece of Wisteria Wonder Chevron Ribbon around the middle.

For the greeting I used the Million & One stamp set and stamped it in Wisteria Wonder ink before cutting it out with the Big Shot and Oval Collection Framlits and then sponging around the edge before attaching to the cardfront with dimensionals.

Sketch Frenzy Friday Sketch Challenge and 30 Days of Gratitude Day 7: Lovely as a Tree

Good morning!  We’ve arrived at the weekend (or will in a few short hours if your working today).  It’s another race weekend for me and this is the first time I’m traveling to a race so Chris and Aidan are coming along so we can check out Annapolis, MD (we’ve never been).  This does mean there won’t be much time for crafting but I may be able to get a little digital scraping done using MDS.  Today I combined my Sketch FrenzyFriday design team card with my gratitude card and boy does this one have some fun bling!  I started with Sahara Sand for the cardbase and added a piece of Soft Suede cardstock that I embossed with the Big Shot and Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder.  Next I added a square of Champagne Glimmer Paper that’s matted with Sahara Sand cardstock and I added a little leaf that I cut out using the Big Shot and Fall Fun Framelits.  The leaf is Soft Suede and I sponged it with the same ink before attaching it with a dimensional.

For the main stamped image I first stamped with the Hardwood stamp on Very Vanilla cardstock using Sahara Sand ink.  Next I stamped the leaf from Lovely as a Tree in Versamark ink and then heat embossed it using the Heat Tool and Whisper White Embossing Powder.  Next I used some Lost Lagoon ink and sponged all around the leaf and then when I wiped it clean and the heat embossed image resists the ink and really stands out.  I also sponged around the edges with Soft Suede ink before matting it with Lost Lagoon cardstock.  I added some Gold Baker’s Twine around this layer before attaching it to the cardfront.

The greeting is from the Another Thank You stamp set and is stamped with Soft Suede ink on Lost Lagoon cardstock and then punched out with the Large Oval Punch and attached to the cardfront with dimensionals.

I really like how this card turned out, nice and soft, with lots of texture to really make a WOW statement.

30-Day Gratitude Challenge: Day 6

Happy Thursday!  I heard a very scary piece of information this week, there are only 7 more Friday’s before Christmas, is that possible?  It’s definitely time to get in gear on some holiday projects that have to be done.  In that vein for today’s gratitude card I decided to make it Christmas themed (I always need lots of thank you cards during the holidays to thank family and friends for gifts and am passing that trait down to Aidan so we can never be too prepared).  Today’s card starts with a Cherry Cobbler cardbase and then I added a piece of Whisper White cardstock that I embossed with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder and then sponged with Soft Suede ink.  Next I used the Wonderous Wreath stamp set and coordinating framelits.  This stamp set is great, it’s 2 step stamping so there are different stamps for each layer so I could stamp in different colors and they all line up perfectly.  An added bonus is that the framelits now have tabs so as long as you line the tabs up at the same place it will match your stamp for perfect cutting (no more rotating the framelit around trying to find the perfect fit, AWESOME!

Once I cut the wreath out I added a piece of 1/8” Silver Ribbon as a hanger and a matching bow.  The greeting is from the Lots of Thanks stamp set and is stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink on Pear Pizzaz cardstock.  I used the Big Shot and the new Project Life Framelits to cut out the greeting (it’s always great to think outside the box with our punches and framelits so you really get the most bang for your crafting buck!).

You could easily change this card to be a holiday card just by swapping out the greeting.

Have you decided to join in on my gratitude challenge?  Leave me a comment and share your cards and projects either here or on my FB business page.  I’ll be watching and at the end of the month will select one random participate to receive blog candy as my way of showing appreciating to you.

30-Day Gratitude Challenge: Day 5

Good morning!  We're at the midpoint of the week and it seems like we're all adjusting to it being dark when we leave for and arrive home from work, I do miss the longer sunny days.  I'm back sharing today's gratitude card and I used fall colors as inspiration and decided to turn things on their sides.  I started with Mossy Meadow cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of Color Me Autumn Designer Series Paper (I attached the DSP to the card first and then trimmed it based on the angles.  I used some Hello Honey 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon wrapped around the DSP.  For the greeting I used the Watercolor Thank You stamp set and stamped it in Soft Suede ink on Cajun Craze cardstock.  I used the Big Shot and the Apothocary Accents Framelits to cut out the greeting and then sponged around it with Soft Suede ink before attaching it to the cardfront.  The final touch was to add a strip of pearls to help accent the greeting.

I have to admit I typically want to place things at right angles and very straight but it's fun to turn things on their sides for a fun twist.

30-Day Gratitude Challenge: Day 4

I'm back and it's time for today's gratitude card.  I decided to change things up (I've noticed I tend to lean towards fall themed cards so I thought I would take a break) and show a really simple and fun single layer card.  I started with Whisper White cardstock and I used the Project Life Corner Rounder Punch to punch all the corners of the card. I used Gorgeous Grunge and Coastal Cabana ink.  The greeting is from the Lots of Thanks stamp set and is stamped in Strawberry Slush.  I added lots of stars, one stamped with the Something to Say stamp set in Pistachio Pudding and one using Baked Brown Sugar Designer Series Paper that were punched with the star from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack.  A larger star is punched out of Gold Glimmer Paper with the star from the Circle Card Thinlits die and the Big Shot.  All the stars are popped up with dimensionals and I added a few gold sequins from the Gold Sequin Trim for extra bling.

I love the simplicity of this card and may be making several more to have on hand for birthdays, etc., and it's very "mailable" which the post office will like.

Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration Color Challenge and 30-Day Gratitude Card Challenge Day 3: Lovely as a Tree

Good morning, it's the start to another week.  We had a great weekend but WOW fall has officially arrived it was quite cold and windy this weekend (I'm not quite ready to say goodbye to the warmer weather).  It's the first Monday of the month which means it's time for another color challenge over on the  Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration blog.  I decided to combine this with the gratitude challenge to make this soft and pretty card.

I'll admit when I first saw this color combination I was a little stumped but I decided to use the classic, Lovely as a Tree.  I started with Pear Pizzaz for the cardbase and then added a layer of Very Vanilla that was matted with Garden Green cardstock.  I used several different stamps from the Lovely as a Tree stamp set and used all the different greens, and stamped off for some to provide lots of different variations on the colors, making the large single tree in the front the focal.  The greeting is from the Lots of Thanks stamp set and I just used my Stampin' Write Markers to ink the part of the greeting I needed.  I used some Old Olive ink to sponge around the edge of the cardstock and all over the front to soften it.

 

The final touch was to add a piece of Venetian Crochet Trim and some Old Olive 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon along the side.  This design would work with lots of different color combinations and occasions, which I love.

 

Make sure to check out the other cards the design team is sharing and come play along and share your creations.

 

Happy stamping,

Scrappy Saturday and National Digital Scrapbooking Day: Trick or Treating Fun

Good evening!  What a fun weekend, it was great having Halloween on a Friday so we could relax and enjoy the evening and that carried through the weekend.  I know I'm a day late on my Scrappy Saturday post but I wanted to share this years Halloween page (it actually coordinates with the page I shared a couple of weeks ago from a Halloween party we attended).  Yesterday was also National Digital Scrapbooking Day so this is perfect and My Digital Studio really helped whip this up.

Aidan was Harry Potter and really had fun hanging out with friends, going through a haunted house.  Since I made this page to coordinate I used several of the same elements so that when the pages are viewed together they tie in.
