I had fun coloring these with the new Stampin' Blends. I used the Vintage Leaves set and the You've Got This set. You could put any sentiment on this card, but I used the "Just a Note" from Flourishing Phrases.

Stampin' Blends - Just a Note Card
Check out this card inspired by Shelby's card I saw at OnStage this last weekend (she works at the Stampin' Up! home office). I added an additional layer and changed the sentiment. I love how simple and earthy it is.

Spotlight Technique - Magnifying Your Creations
The Spotlight Technique was the perfect choice to color in just a portion of this huge stamp from the Occasions Catalog (aka the Spring Catalog). Of course, it is beautiful fully colored in too. I do love just plain black and white though, and this is a step above that.
Here is the Technique Journal page I did on this technique for my club.
Have a crafty week!

Market Fresh Double Matted Windows
I have seen this look quite a bit and did a little research to make sure I knew how to achieve it. For August, my stamp clubs got treated to this technique and some water-coloring too for these cards.
I let my club members choose their designer paper from the 3 sheets I picked out to coordinate, and we also made a page in our Technique Book for this technique.
We used the Farmers Market designer series paper and Market Fresh stamp set that coordinates from the annual catalog (the big one).
Tip: Put dimensionals all around under the frame for a deeper inset look. I used 6 dimensionals on each card.

Bold Bohemian & Boho Chic
Here's another one of my June club projects. The color combo on this Bohemian designer series paper is amazingly rich and bold. Even when I run out of this paper, I will probably copy the color scheme for projects. That's a great way to inspire a color theme anyway...just copy the color scheme of your favorite designer paper.
To frame the washi tape with twine and keep it in place, just cut notches in your mat. Here's a close up. By the way, these foil doilies are great. I can't wait to design something using the larger ones in the pack.
I also used the matching Bohemian Borders stamp set to dress up the envelope and the white mat for inside the card.

Love You...Timeless Elegance
I couldn't wait to sponge on this paper to see how it looked. Also, I found out that the Timeless Elegance paper is a hand drawn design from Stampin' Up!'s own artists...Wow! I used the new In Color, Watermelon Wonder, but any color would be pretty. I think the matching ribbon finishes it off perfectly.
I got 5 cards out of each sheet of roses and scraps for other projects. The designer paper is cut in 3 3/4" squares to mat on 4" Basic Black squares. There's a variety since the paper has bunches of 2 or 3 together plus some large single roses spread out on the design. Here's one with a single rose too.
Here are the supplies:

So Sweet Valentine Card & Split Negative Technique
Here's one of the Valentine Cards I made for my clubs this month. It could also be for a baby shower.
Colors: Pink Pirouette, Whisper White, and Strawberry Slush
My technique this month was Split Negative. This is a new twist on getting this effect from how I was taught about 10 years ago. I ran across it while searching for techniques to share.
Colors: Calypso Coral, Real Red, Basic Black, Whisper White
Featured Products:
Both of these cards were inspired from similar cards shared on our demonstrator site. January is almost over! Thank goodness...year end accounting close seemed extra challenging this year. It's so nice to have breaks from all that overtime to enjoy sharing stamp projects with my club friends.

Lotus Blossom - My Favorite Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set...So Far
I'm back to a semi-regular schedule after the holidays. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday with family and friends!
This is one of my club cards using the amazing Lotus Blossom set in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.
Colors: Perfect Plum, Elegant Eggplant, Lost Lagoon, Whisper White
It's a 3 step stamp, so you need 3 shades to keep all the detail of each stamp. Experiment on scraps to make sure your color choices make the flower you envisioned.
For this one, I used:
Step 1 - Elegant Eggplant full strength
Step 2 - Elegant Eggplant stamped off once
Step 3 - Perfect Plum stamped off once
Stamp each image with the arrow included on the stamp in roughly the same direction to help you line it up as you look through the photopolymer.

Gift Card Holder Using Envelope Punch Board
We made these cool gift card holders at our recent crafting retreat. My friend, Dee, saw a store bought version and figured out the dimensions to make it with the envelope punch board. I used this for my monthly technique in September. Everyone loved it! You can also decorate these for birthdays or any occasion.
Here are the instructions that I gave my club members to put in their technique book:
The Card Stock measurements and score instructions are for the card itself (the Garden Green pieces). The Cover CS Mats refers to the Cherry Cobbler card stock, and the Cover Designer Paper refers to the Early Espresso Christmas tree patterned paper.
Here is a close up photo to illustrate the "attach above the spine" instruction. The spine should be free to open and close.
And here are the tools I used:
Have fun making these!
