Tag Topper Card for Sunday Stamps

Welcome to another week at Sunday Stamps! So excited to have you join us, and to welcome our new DT member Leena! For the next two weeks, we've got a sketch for ya, and here's what I came up with.

I stuck very closely to the sketch, as you can see. I used some specialty paper from the retired Candlelight Christmas DSP as my focal point. I loved the felting on acetate. From there, I stuck with the reds & used some card stock & glimmer paper along with some Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon (retired).

The tags I punched using the Scallop Tag Topper Punch but instead of using paper that was 2" wide, I cut it down to 1-1/2" and it fit nicely between the scallops at the top.

On the inside, I added some more ribbon, anchoring my sentiment. I really love how this turned out!

I hope that you'll be inspired by this sketch and play along. You have until Friday, September 19th at 6 p.m. to link up and don't forget to check out what the other DT members have created to inspire you!

Until next time, stay crafty!
Steph

Sweet Baby Girl

Yesterday I shared with you the boy version I created and promised you the girl version today. You can view yesterday's post here, or get a glimpse of it peeking out from behind in the photo below. :)

I just love this new set (Something for Baby)! It launches today in the new catty. I kept the card CAS so that the focus is only on the onsie. All the elements are the same as the boy version, but I added a few flowers that I punched using the Itty Bitty Punch Pack (that retired, sniff sniff!).

Hope you like this version too. I'd love to hear what you think!

Until next time, stay crafty!

Sweet Baby for Sunday Stamps Challenge #77

Welcome to another challenge at Sunday Stamps. Love the colour combo we've got going on this time - Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point & Sahara Sand.

I am in love with my creation! When I started designing this card, I was just trying to get rid of some retiring products before the new catty launch tomorrow (hanger clips & Silver Glimmer) and am really pleased with the CAS look I accomplished.

I absolutely love the Something for Baby set (doesn't hurt that I earned if for FREE!!) that's launching in the new catalogue tomorrow AND, there are coordinating Framelits for them too! I opted to cut the pieces by hand though because I didn't want a border around my images.

Anyway, hope you'll be inspired by the colour combo and play along with us! You've got until Friday, June 13th to upload your design. We can't wait to see what you come up with.

Until next time, stay crafty!
Steph

Calypso Coral Stays... and Saying "Hi" at Sunday Stamps!

Good morning & happy Sunday! I was so excited to hear that Calypso Coral is sticking around when Stampin' Up! announced their Colour Refresh a couple of weeks ago. I was just as excited when I saw the Colour Challenge this week at Sunday Stamps with Calypso Coral, Basic Grey & Very Vanilla. Such a sweet combo!

Paper: Calypso Coral, Very Vanilla, Epic Day DSP (This & That)
Ink: Calypso Coral, Basic Grey
Stamps: A Round Array
Tools: 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch, 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch
Accessories: Washi Tape, Pearls

This card is filled with product from the NEW 2013 - 2014 Catalogue. The best part is that you can get these products now! The DSP & Washi Tape (so excited for this!!) is from the new This and That line. It's available for purchase in a bundle (with a discount!) or on it's own until the end of the month. Then it won't be available again for purchase until June.

The stamp set is also new - A Round Array - and is available in a sweet bundle with the coordinating punch for 15% off until May 30th. The bundle price will not be available in the new catalogue.

This card was quick & simple to piece together. I cut the card layer from the DSP and then stamped various images from A Round Array on a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. I adhered the VV piece with Washi Tape (awesome product & totally re-positional!) and then double popped-up my sentiment.

Hope you like my card and will play along with us this week. Don't forget to get some inspiration from the other Design Team members too!

Until next time, stay crafty!
