Stamping With Friends

Hi Stampers,

Last night I was out making cards with some Stampin' Up Demonstrators in Lecanto. We've been meeting twice a month and we each bring the supplies to make a card that we share with everyone. We've been having so much fun doing this and I hope we can keep meeting. Our motto is make it simple and only 15 minutes to make so everyone gets a chance. I just thought you might like to see what we did so here they are.

-Fran-

-Michelle's Card-

-My Card-


Here's a card that I did at Debi's house in Inverness, Thursday, and I love the way it came out.

After I stamped the image and colored in with markers I used VersaMark, a Watermark Stamp Pad, and covered the whole piece of cardstock. I than applied heat & stick powder and used a heat gun for a few seconds. Next, came the glitter and you must heat again and let the cardstock cool down than adhere to card.

Pointsetter Flowers



Card Size: 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"
Fold card in half than holding it towards you measure two inches, right to left, and cut the measured amount off.
I used the Stampin' Up 5-Petal Flower Punch and punched two flowers for each flower I was making. I used a stylus (embossingtool) and made creases from the tip of the petals to the center on a 4"x4" mat. I used a crystal yellow brad for the middle of one flower and yellow beads for the other two flowers.
I picked the paper designs and adhered three to card, one on the inside, 5 1/4" x 1 3/4", and two, 5 1/4" x 1 3/4" and 5 1/4" x 1 1/2" on the front. The 5 1/4" x 1 1/2" is on the right hand side and later can be cut off as a bookmark.
Next I cut one piece of red, 2 1/2" x 2 1/2", and one piece of white, 2 1/4" x 2 1/4", stamping on the white using the Merry Christmas from Holiday Best Stamping Set. I adhered white on red and centering and adhereing to the left side of the card.
