I am so glad that you've stopped by today! You have probably come to my blog through the SUDSOL Blog Hop from Kirsteen Gill's blog. She had some great projects, and I am certain you have enjoyed your trip so far.
I've been a Stampin Up! demonstrator for a little more than a year. I am so excited to be part of a wonderful group of Stampin Sisters at SUDSOL for inspiration. They are a wonderful BONUS in addition to my terrific upline. If you are a Stampin Up! demonstrator, check out SUDSOL (www.sudsol.org). You can get a two week trial membership, and I can assure you that you will LOVE it!! If you are not a Stampin Up! demonstrator but would like to join, contact me at suzanne@taylormadestamping.com. I would love to tell you all about how wonderful it is being a demonstrator.
Today I've got flowers and ships……….I absolutely love these new stamp sets from the Summer Mini and couldn't make up my mind which to share with you.
Stamp Set: Happy Greetings, Fabulous Florets, Four Frames
Paper: Beyond the Garden designer paper, Melon Mambo cardstock, Whisper White cardstock, Pacific Point cardstock
Ink: Melon Mambo
Other: Scallop Trim Border punch, Boho Blossoms punch, Two Step Bird punch, Basic Rhinestones, Daffodil Delight 5/8" satin ribbon
Stamp Set: Tiny Tags
Paper: Beyond the Garden designer paper, Melon Mambo cardstock, Whisper White cardstock, Pacific Point cardstock
Other: Square Lattice Embossing Folder, Fun Flower die, Big Shot, 1/8" Daffodil Delight ribbon, Jewelry Tag punch
Okay – since I couldn't decide about which stamp set and designer paper to feature, here are a couple of masculine cards using the new Open Sea stamp set.
A little stamping, a little sponging, a little tearing……..and a very nice masculine card. I love it!
Stamp Set: Open Sea
Paper: Kraft cardstock, Real Red cardstock, Whisper White cardstock
Other: 1-3/4" circle punch, 2-1/2" circle punch, twine, sponges
Here's another card using the new Open Sea stamp set and the new Nautical Expression designer paqper. Have you seen the Baker's Twin in the Summer Mini? It comes in three colors: White, Cherry Cobbler/White, and Early Espresso/White. It adds so much.
I haven't listed the specifics about these last few cards because they are so similar to others here. If you have any questions, please email me.
Here's one more card with this Open Sea stamp set. A little embossing and a little estamping and some more of the Baker's Twine.
Lots of folks have asked for more masculine stamps and Stampin Up! heard.
One last card……….
I made background paper with the new Flower Fest stamp set. I love bling, so a little bling in the center of the punched out flowers works well for me. 🙂
One really fun thing about the Flower Fest stamp set is that there are punches for most of the stamped images.
Thanks so much for stopping by. More great projects await you at the next stop, so check out what Mary Lecuyer has for you. Happy stamping!
