Happy Father’s Day with Comfort Café DSP

Posted on June 17, 2012 by Stamp with Jini

Comfort Café is one of the new Designer Series Paper in the 2012-2013 Catalog. (If you haven’t gotten yours yet – let me know and I’ll be happy to get one to you.) It is such a great package of Paper and with the 6 different designs it’s very versatile. Here Janie designed a masculine box for our TEAM meeting using the Comfort Café Designer Series Paper. Isn’t it great!

I love the way you can dye our ribbon any color you want to! You can learn this and many other techniques during my Club meetings. Interested in finding out more about becoming part of one of my Clubs? I’ll be happy to tell you more about joining one of my Clubs – just email me or call me today.

I’m filling my box with chocolates – a sure hit with my husband!

Layered Labels

Posted on June 9, 2012 by Stamp with Jini

Here is a card that I made recently using the NEW Layered Labels stamp set and the Comfort Café Designer Series Paper from the 2012-2013 Catalog. I’ve used the embedded embossing technique to add texture and make it look “quilted”.

Have you had a chance to see all the new goodies yet in the NEW 2012-2013 Catalog? Some wonderful new products have just been introduced and this card shows you a number of the NEW items. The Layered Labels stamp set coordinates with our NEW Apothecary Accents Framelits. I just love how easy it is to use the Framelits don’t you? You stamp first and just line up the frame over the image the way you want. The combinations are endless. I’m so glad that Stampin’ Up! has introduced several new Framelits and Edgelits in the NEW 2012-2013 Catalog!

Getting together with my stamping friends is soo… much fun and so I’m sorry to say I won’t be able to join them this month. I did however make this swap to share for when they get together today. My husband, Larry is being sweet enough to take them for me while I’m gone so I’ll look forward to seeing what they have made when I return home from my visit with my sister. I’ll try and share some of them when I can.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Layered Labels

Inks: Cajun Craze and Midnight Muse

Paper: Comfort Café Designer Series Paper, Cajun Craze and Midnight Muse

Accessories: Big Shot, Apothecary Accents Framelits, Square Lattice Folder and Postage Stamp Punch

Petals-a-Plenty

Posted on December 21, 2011 by Stamp with Jini

Today I thought I would share with you the card that I mentioned in my December 2^nd blog post HERE that we did for my technique club in November. It uses the Wax Paper Resist Technique and the Petals-a-Plenty Embossing Folder. Which one do you like better?

This next card I created using the Hand-Penned Holidays stamp set from the Holiday Mini Catalog and the Petals-a-Plenty Embossing Folder using the same technique. I will miss this set with its elegant script and it is sooo forgiving if you don’t get it lined up perfectly. Remember you only have until January 3^rd to order those items you love from the Holiday Mini Catalog and why not check out the Clearance Rack at the same time – there are some wonderful deals going on right now.

I hope everyone is enjoying this holiday season with family and friends. I love this time of year and now that both my children are out for their school breaks we are working around the house getting ready for Christmas. I finished all of my baking yesterday with the help of my oldest son, Johnathan. He loves to help me bake the Christmas cookies so he can snitch some and is sure he is getting his favorites too! It makes me feel good that he enjoys the holiday traditions we’ve built as a family over the years.

Season of Joy

Posted on November 2, 2011 by Stamp with Jini

It’s the Season of Joy, that special time of year when we celebrate Christ. Here is a card that I designed using the Wax Paper Resist technique that we did in November’s Stamp Club meeting.

I used the Season of Joy stamp set since it coordinated with our Petals-a-Plenty Embossing Folder for the Big Shot. After all, you see poinsettias everywhere this time of year. My son grew some in his green house class last year and brought one home that was beautiful. He was full of interesting facts about them that I wasn’t aware of, but then I have a brown thumb.

I love the way this card turned out, my family however liked my other design better. I’ll try and post the one I ended up using later so you can see which one you like better.
