Color Fuse Blog Hop: July 2016 - Part 1

Color Fuse July

I am hooked on making little pouches with the ENVELOPE PUNCH BOARD so I thought it would be fun to make one for today.

This sweet little card was created from a little bit of this and a little bit of that!  My inspiration came from the BANNERS FOR YOU Bundle.   I really love the banners, so useful in so many ways!  It made a great focal point and sentiment for the center of my envelope pouch.

I did a breakdown of all the products used in the picture above, these are all favorites of mine!  Like I've said before, I use all Stampin' Up! products because of the cohesion.  All the colors, stamps and accessories all blend beautifully together.

Let's go back to the pouch for a second.  It's just like the one I shared HERE that was a seed packet holder.  I used KRAFT CARDSTOCK  measuring 6" x 6" and followed the directions on the ENVELOPE PUNCH BOARD scoring and punching beginning on the 3" line.  The card insert measures in at 3 1/2" x 4 1/4".  I added a bit of the fun new Ruched Ribbon in Flirty Flamingo to pull the card from the pouch.

Flashback Friday: Travel Time

Image
Welcome to another Flashback Friday!!  Today we travel back to 2003 for the fun stamp set called Travel Time.  I thought this was an appropriate set for this week.  It is Stampin' Up!'s convention this week so a lot of demonstrators are traveling.  Here's what the set looks like. I made a CAS card (clean and simple) with this set.  I have been doing more of the clean look lately, it brings this set a more modern look. The card is very simple, Whisper White card stock and neutral inks.  Here's the details: 1.  Card base is Whisper White.  I stamped the map and suitcase in Crumb Cake .  Stamped the sentiments in Basic Gray. 2.  Stamped the card on Glossy White card stock (boy do I wish this paper was not retired) with StazOn Black ink.  Color was added with markers and blender pen.  I fussy cut the car and added it to the card with dimensionals. That's it!! A CAS card to modernize this set from 10 years ago.  Thanks for flas...

Party Animal

Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop!  This week we are all featuring ANIMALS. I almost used the Playful Pals Bundle, but the fun new set BALLOON BUILDERS was calling my name! Isn't this balloon elephant too cute!!  I knew from the start that this little guy needed a string for his balloon.  Let's take a closer look. The thin silver thread was just perfect for the balloon string!  It took a couple tries to get the bow tied, but it was worth the effort! I kept the card pretty simple overall with a pretty design from the gorgeous BIRTHDAY BOUQUET paper in the background.  The elephant was stamped on Whisper White then I cut out the trunk before die cutting the rest with a circle framelit.  I had in mind that he was kind of floating in a balloon himself on the card! BUT, are you wondering why I named this post PARTY ANIMAL and then shared such a sweet and gentle little elephant??  Well, I named the post after my ten year old daughter Sofia who went...

Peachy Keen Jellybean!

Image
I used to love to say "Peachy Keen Jellybean" when I was younger so when I first saw the new Occasions catalog I smiled!  The Peachy Keen stamp set is right up my alley!!  I haven't had the chance to use the bundle much so I pulled it out for this week's Monday Lunchtime Sketch challenge. This sketch is perfect for the Peachy Keen stamps and Gorgeous Grunge. Putting together a fun yet fast card is always a good thing!  I had this card complete in 15 minutes flat...and that's with a fussy baby hanging out next to me in his stroller! The card base is Tangerine Tango with a simple layer of Whisper White. The right side has Gorgeous Grunge stamped with Coastal Cabana and Baked Brown Sugar.  I didn't want to over do it and make the card too busy, I wanted the greeting to stand out. Peachy Keen definitely stands out when stamped boldly in Tangerine Tango.  I must admit that up until the last week or so, I hardly ever used this color.  Now, I feel like I am using ...
