I'M A SUCKER FOR GALAXIES - Non-SU! BIRTHDAY CARD SHARE

Image
Hi, Stampers!      I love anything that looks like the night sky, the galaxy, the Northern Lights - and if I can get my hands on it, I have to use it for a card.  And now that I have learned how to print my own verses inside the card, the possibilities are endless - well, limited to my imagination, anyway.  I  came across this, what I thought was "Watercolor Nebula" DSP online, but it is Washi tape (by Altenew).  I had to have it, regardless.  It came in a roll (it's 7" wide!) and, of course, now I have way, way more than I can ever possibly use.      I just added a "happy" sentiment die-cut from SU! Galvanized Metallic Paper and offset another cut from Mango Melody and added a Mango Melody mat.  The "birthday" is from the SU!  Perennial Birthday set, punched out with the Classic Label Punch.  Perfect for a masculine birthday, too.  The version below is accented with a Gorgeous Grape mat and the Grapefruit Grove SAB Foil offset over SU!

EMPATHY CARD FOR A FRIEND - I THINK STAMPIN' UP! SHOULD HIRE ME - NEEDLEPOINT NOOK DSP

Hiya, Stampers!      I have a friend who is going through some aggravating times right now, so I hope she gets a chuckle out of this card.  (I hope she doesn't read my blog, because I haven't mailed it yet - I'm pretty sure she doesn't - she's not a crafter or stamper.)      I couldn't resist these puns, I think that's what they are, anyway.  I created the sentiments in Word.  The inside sentiment says, "Sew sorry times are tough right now."  ;-)  They made me smile.  Details on my Blog. Happy Stampin’! Sue Duffy ~ mandsduffy@comcast.net

Images © Stampin' Up!® Hello, Stampers!      Where have you seen this pattern before?  Look up!  Is there a tin ceiling in one of your favorite restaurants?  I know of at least one here in Mooresville,  I love this Dynamic Embossing Folder, Tin Tile.  It is great with regular cardstock, foils and,especially with the tin-look Galvanized Metallic Paper on p.43 in the Holiday Catalog.   (I don't generally spray my cardstock first, as shown in the video above, and  it seems fine - try using an acetate shim instead.)      Here's a little $-saving tip for you:  Do you still have SU!'s Brushed Silver, Gold or Copper cardstock from years ago?  The Brushed Silver especially provides a very similar look to the new Galvanized Metallic Paper!  I'm looking forward to experimenting with it, the Country Home stamp set (perfect for Thanksgiving) and the Chicken Wire!  Stay tuned.
