Stampin' Up Crazy for Cupcakes - card 2

Here are another couple of cards I made, the supplies are the same as yesterday with the addition of a small piece of Tempting Turquoise card stock and a blender pen.

Stampin' Up Crazy for Cupcakes

I set myself a challenge today to use a stamps et I have not used before. Over the next few days I will post the other cards I made.
Supplies:- Stampin' Up Kraft cards stock 4"x4" for the card base, stamps are from the Crazy for Cupcakes stamp set (page 32 ), Patterns Designer Series Paper - Rose red ( page 76), scalloped boarder punch, tab punch, Stampin' Glitter in rose pink, brad taken from the Soft Subtles tub and finally Black StazOn.

Quilted rag bag number two

Here is my other bag.. a little less like a loo roll holder!

Quilted rag bag

I saw this idea on You Tube somewhere... it had been adapted. This was my first attempt, I don't think I will really make use of it. It looks too much like a loo roll holder to me! I have had a go at a larger version which I will post tomorrow. The bag was really easy to make. Each of the scalloped squares were cut out using the scalloped square die from Sizzix.

Yes... another one!

Well this is the last bees wax card for a while. There will be no post tomorrow as I am off to a Stampin' up Party. I have been on my sewing machine so there will be a sewing project on Saturday.

Another Bees Wax Card

Here is another card I made using bees wax. The supply list is the same as yesterday.

Bees Wax Art

I thought I ought to dust off my Ranger Melting pot and give it another try. This time instead of experimenting with UTEE (ultra thick embossing enamel) I thought I would give bees wax a go. I made one heck of a mess, burnt myself quite a lot and shouted at the kids to stay away because mummy would have an accident if they came too close. The backing card is Kraft card stock, the round heart embellishment and the polka dot boarder if from the Adore range from My Mind’s Eye. Somewhere in there I have used a bit of napkin, the rub on is from American Crafts and the lace is from my stash.

Flower cards

These cards were so easy to make. A great stamp set... not bad for only £4.95!

Another Cog card

I used the same background cog template as yesterday but just added more stuff today!

Cog Card

The main background for this card was and SGV template downloaded from.http://dan99.blogspot.com/. He has some fantastic ideas!!! I inked the edges with Worn Lipstick Distress ink and put a few feux white stitches here and there, added a few button, a stamped image on some accetate and a few other bits and bobs.

Crate Paper - Little Sprout Collection

The tree and the mushroom are from the Crate Paper little sprout collection. The card in Old Olive ( Stampin' Up) and the Paper at the bottom is Basic Grey.

Bashful Blue Thank you card

I have been experimenting with my camera. I have found I have not been able to take a good photo without daylight. These were taken this evening... I think a bit more playing with the settings and I will be there.

Twitter Card Sizzix and Stampin' Up

The bird is a sizzix die. When I showed the card to my other half he asked why I had made a card with the Twitter bird on it... I can see what he means!

Stampin' Up Medallion Stamp card

I stamped the large background medallion stamp in whisper white ink onto chocolate chip card stock and cut out the centre and placed a brad in the middle. I used the 1" circle punch and punched it out of the other bit!

Hug me card

Just a simple card. I love the chocolate chip and the pixie pink together.

Stampin' Up mini album

There is a very sad story behind this little album. I took photos of it before I stuck my pictures in and then I was going to take pictures again after I had completed it by adding the photos and the journalling. Well I did complete it BUT I found it on the drive this morning, it had dropped out of the book it was in and must have been ther all night in the pouring rain. I made a few observations from this accident. I discovered that Stampin' Up Whisper white ink does not run, that the kraft card stock dries to a lovely rough texture when dried out on a radiator and the Stampin' Up Snail Adhesive still sticks even after it has been soaked!

Stampin' Up Card Solitude hostess Bundle

A slight variation on the previous two days, a normal gate fold card. I scalloped the edges and the made them meet in the middle with Tempting turquoise card stock. I used the standard index wheel from the hostess Solitude Bundle and ran it down either side using whisper white ink, the little bird also came from the same set.

Stampin'Up Card - Polka Dot

Another card with the same design as yesterday but a differnt colour scheme. This time I used colours from the Bold Bright colour family ( YoYo Yellow and Real Red) I Stamped the front of the card with the background stamp Polka Dot in Whisper white ink. The Stamps come from the set Tart and Tangy. The ribbon is the Real Red 1/2" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon.
