Team Time Fun

Each month we gather to stamp and share with each other and so today I thought I’d share some of the fun cards that my team members have created over the past 2 months. I can’t believe they got buried on my desk and I haven’t shared them with you before now.

These first 2 cards use the Country Home stamp set (147678) from the Annual Catalog that you can find on page 90. This first one uses the beautiful Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) to choose it’s color pallet.

And both these cards have been colored with our Stampin’ Blends which gives them that great bold rich, color.

And here is fun fold card using the Beautiful Autumn Stamp set () and lovely Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper (153520).

This card uses the fun impossible fold to create a card that pops up but mails flat.

And one using our Stitched Leaves Dies (153567) that has been teamed up with the colorful Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) again.

I really like the way these dies have the stitched edging that can be used on negative images like this and on the positive images too.

A gratitude journal made with the lovely Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper (152488) – done in 6×6 and filled with paper to fill. A page for each person to personalize or use it as a lovely book to use yourself.

This next project uses the Grace’s Garden stamp set (151513) and is a fun fold card.

That once again folds flat for mailing.

This next grouping of projects is for Christmas and I’ll continue with some more fun folds. First this easel card that uses the Sweetest Time Bundle (155169).

And last but not least Shirley shared some little wooden pumpkins she made using the technique we used during our Peak Princess Event. You can see more and the tutorial for that project about that HERE.

And how about some Christmas projects? This first card uses the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper (153487) and teams it up with the beautiful Forever Gold Laser Cut Specialty Paper (152493)

And for a here is a fun fold teepee card using our Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper (150444) with it’s beautiful images.

Champagne foil Sheets (144748) were cut out using the Forever Flourishing Dies (152714) and were used as a backdrop for the sentiment. This card also folds flat for mailing simply by undoing the well placed velcro dot.

And now for some fun 3d projects – A cute little box that holds a couple of nuggets using the Little Treats stamp set (153516).

And fun tags using a variety of the holiday stamp sets found in the Annual and Holiday catalog. Can you name them all?

There are 4 different stamp sets used for these tags. Don’t look if you are still guessing but here is the list. Detailed Doves (153406), Christmas Gleaming (150464), Merry Moose (150494), and Perfectly Plaid (149418). Hand made tags for your packages make them extra special and are a lot of fun to make!

whew… what did I tell you, lots of great projects! I’m truly blessed with such a great team to share and stamp with.

More Merry Moose

Last week I shared some cards using the Merry Moose Bundle and today I wanted to share a couple more cards with you. Both of these cards use the Merry Moose Bundle and have teamed it up with the Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) and the Birch Background stamp (149256/149259) for a country feeling Christmas card.

The Gold Metallic Pearls (146282) add a bit of texture and richness to this card and I like the way that the Layering Circles Dies (151770) are used to high light the punched out moose.

And the pines are peeking through the cut out created with the Heart Punch Pack (151292) for this next card.

It’s a great set and it’s not just for Christmas. If you have sportsmen in the family you can team up this set with your favorite Birthday set or other all occasion set.

Merry Moose

I’m so excited that this stamp set and punch are returning this year. They were so popular that they sold out last fall. Not only are they returning but you can get a 10% discount when you purchase the Bundle! That’s a win, win right?

Filled with images or nature and some fun sentiments this set is sure to please. Check out these lovely cards made using this bundle with a warm country feel to them.

This first card uses an old staple – the torn edge technique to highlight the evergreens in the background. Sponging gives it a bit of a country feel along with the Buffalo Check (151372/147797) done in the traditional red and black check.

And how about this card that uses the ever popular Woodland Embossing Folder (152881) and ‘Tis The Season Designer Series Paper (153489)?

This final card uses simple stamping to create a lovely wooded back ground done in Old Olive and stamped off for different shades of green.

The moose has a bit of Wink of Stella on him for some added shimmer and the Star Designer Elements (150430) add a bit of copper to the mix. The moose’s scarf was created using a bit of the Real Red 3/16″ Braided Linen Trim (153546) which has a great texture when widened a bit with a simple pull on each side.

Like this Bundle? Why not check it out?

Shoe Box Fun & Team Time

Each December my Team holds a Shoe Box Swap and a pot luck lunch during our monthly meeting. It’s a chance to share, enjoy each others company and stamp together.

The table has a holiday flair to it and this year I was able to use the Holiday Catalog inspired Toile Tidings Grid Paper (153984) as place mats for everyone.

In addition I used the Winter Gifts Paper Pumpkin to create quick and easy gift bags to hold their gifts.

These bags included a Team Lanyard with name tags for everyone, along with a special little charm commemorating the event. My Silver team members had a extra little bling added.

While I included a basic name tag for them, I also challenged everyone to create their own name tag showing their personality! It will be fun to see what everyone comes up with next month.

Whew… in addition to our Shoe Box we also made our Make ‘n Takes so there was a lot of stamping going on!

Want to see some of the Shoe Box Swaps now?

This first one is a fancy fold and uses the Inspiring Iris stamp set (149268)

I just love the color combination of Calypso Coral and Basic Gray used for this project.

And here is a fun way to package some hot chocolate using the Cup of Christmas stamp set (150491) and Wrapped in Perfect Designer Series Paper (149596). What fun these candy canes are Oreo flavored and there are some ginger snaps tucked in there too!

And how about this little ornament made with the Merry Moose Bundle and the Night Before Santa Designer Series Paper (150437)?

I really love the fact that Stampin’ Up! will be bringing back this set and the punch next holiday season – You can still order the stamp set (150494) now and then get the punch next year.

And how about this lovely card using the Nature’s Beauty stamp set (150528)?

And this last card is a sneak peek of the special Sale-a-bration stamp set, Little Ladybug, that you can earn for Hosting a private class or party.

Why not set up a time now for January to gather with your friends? Sale-a-bration is a great reason to gather together with friends and stamp!

In case you are wondering, anyone who has purchased the starter kit from myself or one of my team members, gets to enjoy Blue Mountain Stampers’ perks…like monthly make n takes!

Merry Moose

This little guy immediately drew my attention when I first saw the 2019 Holiday Catalog back in August. I’m not sure what it is about this set, whether its the fact that it has a punch, is filled with nature and wildlife options or the sentiments – I think it is a great addition to my collection.

Now that you’ve seen the set check out these great cards

This first one is simply gorgeous in person as it is a fancy fold and creates a wonderful winter scene.

This fold is created with a few score lines and will fold flat for mailing. It does have a couple of layers that the moose are on which gives it more depth to the card

base: 4 1/4″ x 8″ ; scored at 1 1/4″, 2 1/2″, 5 1/2″, and 6 3/4″

The front snow layer is 5 1/2″ wide and then the two – 1/2″ strips are just 4 inches long and scored on each end at 1/2″. These were added at two different heights and attached to the inside panels.

I can’t wait to try one of these myself. I’ll be sharing a tutorial when I do for sure!

And here is a another card done in Crumb Cake and Early Espresso

Both of these cards use the Woodland 3D Embossing Folder (139673) which is currently on back order and unavailable to order. But no worries it should be back in stock by mid November. Email me if you would like me to add you to my list and I’ll let you know when it is available again.

Supplies:
