Snow Place fun

Posted on December 16, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

For those of you who know me you know that the stamp set Snow Place (139738) was a must have with its cute little penguin. And the fact it comes in a money saving Bundle (140844) that includes the Snow Friends Framelit Dies (139664) never hurts!

Of course, I see this set as a winter set, or even year round since it has a penguin in it! Can’t you see this fun little guy with a laying out on a beach towel, playing basket ball or even wearing a hula skirt made of ribbon? I wiped up three the other day quickly want to see?

This first card is the traditional Christmas card. I couldn’t decide on which base color I liked the best so I tried them both!

And this second card is pretty much the same, but I made them for my birthdays that I need the next few weeks. The sentiment from our new Suite Sayings stamp set (140709) found in our NEW Occasions Catalog works perfectly with this fun sentiment from the set!

And my last creation is for a old High School friend, who is Jewish. I always send my Christmas letter in a winter themed card for her and thought she’d enjoy this fun quickly set of penguins. And I used the Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder since I wanted a more bold design for the back ground.

I love the sentiment I used on the inside – and simply hand wrote a little something to finish it off the way I wanted with my Melon Mambo Stampin’ Write Marker. Don’t you like that we have matching markers option all our color families?

I think this last design is my favorite. How about you? Which card do you like the best. Why not leave me a comment and let me know?

Supplies:

Stamp Set: S now Place (139738)

Inks: Basic Black Archival Ink Pad (104931), Tempting Turquoise (126952) and Melon Mambo Classic Ink (126948)

Paper: Tempting Turquoise (102067), Melon Mambo (115320), and Whisper White card stock (100730)

Accessories: Snow Friends Framelit Dies (139664), Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Write Marker, Softly Falling Embossing Folder (139672)

Dove of Peace & More

Posted on December 15, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

You know how it goes I had planned on starting my Christmas baking yesterday, however the weather didn’t consult me. We had a bad rain storm blow through mid morning that took out our power for a couple of hours and then problems with the internet. So I didn’t get to post yesterday.

But your in luck today things are humming along just fine – so I thought I’d share the card I had planned on showing you yesterday along with some additional one too.

I created this card using the Dove of Peace (139800) single stamp. I loved the design immediately when I saw it and knew it would look lovely teamed up with our Night of Navy and done in our Gold Embossing Powder.

Great minds think alike, right? This next card was one I stamped at a recent team Shoebox Swap – My friend Teresa used some of the same supplies, but I think this card has a totally different feel to it. Isn’t that a wonderful part of stamping – the way things can be changed up so easily simply with the choices we make?

This next card was Maria’s Shoebox swap.

I love the way the Delicate Ornament Thinlits Die (139667) was used to make the ornament swing in the opening.

And how about this card that was made with the Reason for the Season stamp set (139730) and Softly Falling Embossing Folder (139672).

Marni used the Sparkly Seasons Bundle (140863) when she designed this card. Who doesn’t like snow globe and the childhood memories they evoke?

And this next card is particularly fun with it’s belly band.

It uses Peaceful Pines Bundle (140850) along with the Festive Fireplace (139754) and Versatile Christmas stamp sets (140389/140392).

There you go – some wonderful Shoebox swaps that I made with my SINKS sisters.

Great news today begins a NEW group of Weekly Deals!

A Visit from Santa

Posted on December 11, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

I love pampering my Team, the Blue Mountain Stampers and this past Tuesday when we gathered together for our Annual Christmas party that’s just what I tried to do.

We gathered together for fun, fellowship and of course a bit of stamping! Everyone brought a dish and we enjoyed a wonderful turkey dinner together with all the trimmings. (I love this part of the evening since it is a lot of fun trying new dishes and enjoying each others.)

Santa made an appearance too!

Notice even our dog, Chewie was in the spirit!

After we retreated to the classroom and enjoyed some stamping together. And for those that were unable to attend On Stage in Tampa with me, I wanted to create a little mini On Stage event for them.

And of course that box is filled with our NEW products! So everyone had a chance to see the NEW accessories and Designer Series Papers and stamp with some of the new products from the upcoming 2016 Occasions and Sale-a-bration Catalogs!

And what party would be complete without gifts? Everyone was greeted with this a couple of little goodies when they got to their seats. One had to be chocolate, right?

I love these little boxes that I created using the Home for Christmas Designer Series Paper (139592) and the Bow Builder Punch (137414). I think they turned out really cute.

And what do they contain? Well…….

A Bone Folder for everyone that has been decorated with a charm. I made each Bone Folder Charm with our Winter Wonderland Embellishments (139621) along with different beading so we can tell them apart when we stamp together. LOL! (Of course, they have some blue since we’re the Blue Mountain Stampers.) I made these to coordinate with their scissor charms that they received earlier this year. (Want to see the scissor charms? You can click HERE)

The Clothespin Santa Hat is sooooo easy to make!

Want to learn how to make these quick and easy treats? Well all you need is a few supplies. (You may even have these. If not let me know and I can help you out.)

Tree Punch (135859)
Word Window Punch (119857)
1/2″ Circle Punch (119869)
Clothespins (133764)
Red Glimmer Paper (121790)
Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper (135315)
Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive (110755) This stuff works great on Glimmer paper!!!

Here’s how:

Punch out a Tree using the Red Glimmer Paper and clip off the trunk. Using the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper punch out a circle and Word Window. Attach to the tree piece. After it dries attach the hat to the Clothespin.

That’s it – quick and easy!!! But I warn you, these are so cute you’ll want to make lots of these! LOL

Snowplace Winter Fun

Posted on December 7, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

Today I’ll be sharing some more swaps that were made with one of my favorite bundles from the holiday catalog, Snowplace (139664). This stamp set has a fun chubby little penguin in it – and those of you who know me know I can’t resist a penguin!

When you combine the Snowplace stamp set (139738) with the Snow Friends Framelit Dies (139664) your options are unlimited!

I’m already envisioning winter birthday cards made with this stamp set. The fun Snow Way! sentiment will work great with some of our other sentiments to create a fun birthday greeting.

And these two cards are simply elegant – but then Silhouettes such as found in the Every Blessing (138806/139919) gives you that classic feel.

And here is another set, All Ye Faithful stamp set (1396898/139901) combined with the rich colors and classic patterns in the Home for Christmas Designer Series Paper (139592).

Last chance for these Weekly Deals

Stock back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing a quick and simple treat that you can make as a stocking stuffer!

It’s a Festival of Trees!

Posted on December 4, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s cards all have something in common – trees! After all who doesn’t love all the shapes, and sizes they come in this time of year?

Melanie used the F estival of Trees stamp set (135059) and the 2015-2017 In Colors to create this card, Mint Macaron and Tip Top Taupe.

Did you know that the Mint Macaron Classic Ink Pad (138326) is part of the Weekly Deals? So not only can you get this lovely soft color but you can get it at a great deal! You’ll want to check out the coordinating 1″ Dotted Trim too (138424) that was used on this card it ties lovely.

These next three cards all have the Tree Punch (135859) in common along with either the Merry Moments Designer Series Paper (138450) or the 6×6 stack option (139595) found in the Holiday Catalog. Isn’t it great that Stampin’ Up! give us two choices depending on how we like to craft?

This first card that was given to me by Sandy uses the Hostess Set, Six Sayings (139849/139852) if you haven’t seen it you’ll want to take a look since it’s a lovely set that covers all our fall occasions – and the font is just lovely I think. Great news – you can still earn this set too. Contact me today to host a party with me or place an order so you can earn it now!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! And you can send out these wonderful little images with some great sentiments. Check out this winter card done in Soft Sky.

Irene used used the Christmas Cuties (139784/139787) and for a quick background the Watercolor Wash (138704/139658). And can you see texture from the Softly Falling Embossing Folder (139672) and Dazzling Details (124117)? I love this stuff since it adds some sparkle that stays put! LOL It’s a great choice if you don’t like wearing glitter!

This next card was given to me by Joann and uses our Reason for the Season stamp set (139730).

A great two step stamping set.
