STAMPIN' UP!® BACK ON YOUR FEET

Image
Hello, Fellow Stampers!      Today we have a totally original idea by Sue!  LOL  Sadly, they are few and far between.  I was motivated to create this card by the fact a neighbor recently underwent back surgery and I doubted he would appreciate something flowery.  ;-)  So, let's get started. Happy Stampin’! Sue Duffy ~ mandsduffy@comcast.net Details Whisper White Thick vertical card base with a mat of So Saffron or Daffodil Delight - I actually made two of these - and 5 x 3-3/4 Whisper White for the top layer. I colored a dab of Embossing Paste (you don't need much) with a couple of drops of Cajun Craze Refill and added it using our brick-look mask.  I did not want it to be solid. I hand-cut a 4" piece of Granny Apple Green CS to make it a little uneven and then used our retired Fringe Scissors to make the grass. You can just use Paper Snips.  I added the piece I had trimmed off at the bottom and sponged some color on it, added it with Liquid Glue to the

ROOTED IN NATURE "FLORAL" - June 2019 Stamp Camp

Image
Hi, Stampers!      I cannot claim the clever use of these images as my own.  I've made only a couple of changes to the original I saw, I think, on Pinterest some time ago. If you follow me on Pinterest - Stamp with Sue - you'll see I posted several new cards on my SU! Rooted in Nature board while I was looking for the original of this "floral," because I do like to give credit.  Unfortunately, no luck - maybe you'll do better.  Anyway, let's get started!

STAMPIN' UP! VARIATION ON CATALOG SAMPLE - SAILING HOME BUNDLE - June Stamp Camp

Image
Hi, Stampers!      We made this version of a Sailing Home SU! Annual Catalog sample (p.144).  The sample background was made with the Come Sail Away Memories & More Card Pack (p.145), but I don't have that, so we improvised using the retired TIEF, Seaside, because I don't have the new High Seas 3D Embossing Folder, either! (p.198).  So, you may ask, is this really a CAS of the Sample?  About as close as I could get with what I had.  ;-)  See?  You don't have to have every single product in order to create.  Please comment or email for a FREE Project Sheet!     Let's get started.    Happy Stampin’!

PAPER COASTER STICKY NOTES HOLDER* TUTORIAL - June 2019 STAMP CAMP

Image
  Image © Stampin' Up!® Hi, Stampers!      * With slight changes in the measurements and decoration, this old standby Sticky Note Holder is a CAS from a YouTube Video by Angie Juda,Chic'nScratch.  You can  find it by searching for “Gingham Gala Coaster Post It Notes” on YouTube. Below is the step-by-step tutorial I created for stamp camp.  Use any of your favorite DSP's.  We used the retired Gingham Gala because I have plenty of it.   If you would like a FREE printable tutorial, leave a comment with your email address or send me an email!  Let's get started. Happy Stampin’! Sue Duffy ~ mandsduffy@comcast.net       NOTE:   M y first change was to the size of the DSP for the cover.  The coasters are 3-1/2 x 3-1/2, same as Angie’s, but I enlarged the DSP measurement to 5 x 5 for easier handling.  (If you use 4x4 coasters, use 6x6 DSP.)  I changed the CS for the inside/binding to 6-7/8 x 3-1/4 and the scoring to 3-1/4 and 3-5/8 to allow for
