Hump Day Lunch Break- Sweet Peas

July 19, 2024 / Beth / 0 Comments

Each Wednesday I feature a Hump Day Lunch Break, well sometimes it’s a dinner break. This week I featured the Sweet Peas Stamp set, create cute projects to celebrate new babies, show appreciation, or wish p-pea birthday. Plus this is a great set to color with your favorite coloring tools. I decided on using Watercolor pencils. I forget how fun it is to use my water color pencils, water painters and fluid 100 paper. This stamp set is soooo sweet I just could not resist playing around with it. In fact, I have been having so much fun with it that I will be featuring it for the August Studio Club. Make sure you sign up for my email so you can be the first to now when new classes, club, event and specials are offered. But without further ado, here is our Hump Day spotlight card.

Choose your favorite coloring tool and technique to add color to the cute images. The smaller ones easily fit on a die-cut shape or labels. I used the Nested Essentials dies here. When you pair the image and greeting, you end up with an absolute cuteness overload!

Today’s adventure in Card making featured making 3 different cards using 1 card layout. I love being able to use the same layout multiple times and have each card be unique just by changing up the Stamp sets and Papers. Which is your favorite? leave a comment below I would love to know.

It all started with a card base, the a 3-1/8″ x 4-3/8″ cardstock layer, a 3″ x 4-1/4″ piece of Designer paper. Add a focal element, stamped or die cut image and a sentiment. Check out the YouTube video below.

Hump Day Lunch Break – Set Sail with Rays of Light

June 2, 2022 / Beth / 0 Comments

Today’s Hump Day Lunch Break featured the Let’s Set Sail Stamp Set and coordinating punch along with the Rays of Light Background Stamp. A quick card to show how amazing background stamps can really add depth and focus to a card. Add a few extras and voila a card fit to give!

Measurements

Balmy Blue Cardstock: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, 4″ x 2-1/2″
Basic White: 5″ x 5-1/2″, 4″ x 5-1/4″ (inside of card) and scraps for stamped pieces and punched items

I love using the Stamparatus for stamping large background stamps. Watch the video below for some tips! Also in the video I give some tips on placing your images so you can punch them out without wasting a lot of paper and time. I do also love punches in fact when I first started paper crafting, I bought and entire Alphabet punch set so I could use it for scrapbooking. Boy, have things come a long way since then. I love even the simplest shaped punches like the Cloud punch I used on today’s card.

Live at 6:45: In Bloom Online Class – April 1, 2021

April 2, 2021 / Beth / 0 Comments

Each Week I do a facebook live to feature a different product and design projects using those items and then do a Facebook Live. This week I’ve chosen the In Bloom Bundle. This was a really popular bundle during Sale-a-bration when Stampin’ Up offered coordinating papers. But I wanted to show you ways to use this set without the designer paper. (Ok I used a little bit)!

If you have never joined my Facebook live at My Stamp Studio, I go live every Thursday night at 6:45pm central, (If I am not live, there will be a video), with at lease three projects. Everyone is Welcome to join. Hop over to my Page: My Stamp Studio Join the My Stamp Studio Group

If you can not make it to the live, I will be posting the recordings here and on My YouTube channel.

This first card started with just using stamps, ok I slipped in a die cut from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, I couldn’t help myself. My base is Granny Apple Green. The next layer is Basic Gray- it needed a little something so I grabbed the Textured Essential Stamp set and stamped using Basic Gray ink. The flowers were stamped with our Stampin’ Up! bright colors: Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green and Magenta Madness. I added a splash of sheer pool party ribbon and TADA!

The second card I focused more on the Pierced Blooms dies and kept the card pretty, clean and somewhat monochromatic. I had to add a little splash of color and of course add designer paper for the envelope flap. The Purple Posy cardstock is no longer orderable so is not listed below.

This third card, is a fun fold. I love making fun fold cards. I was inspired by Sherry Roth that share this card. I changed it up by using switching around the card layer colors and using the Old World Embossing folder. The Old World embossing folder is retiring along with the Rococo Rose In color.

***Remember, if you put in an order ($35 minimum) by April 5th, 2021 at midnight, using Host Code ZFNRQGPH……. I’ll send you all three make and takes for free.

You will need the stamps, ink and adhesive

But, your order MUST be in by Monday at midnight!!
