UStamp with Dawn and Friends! Up on the Rooftop Blog Hop!



Welcome to the UStamp with Dawn and Friends!! Up On The Roof Top Blog Hop!! Holiday 2011.

If you have been following the blog hop from the beginning, you should have just come from Mercedes' blog and seen her beautiful rosette. Isn't it just gorgeous?  I love the way she created the poinsettia!

If you are just jumping in on the blog hop, no problem, as you can start at any point. All of the designers' blogs are linked together, so you will be able to see ALL of the super projects we have for you!

I chose to create a Christmas tree ornament. Wouldn't this just be a great gift? Every time the recipient looks at it on the tree, they'll think of you! :)


I created the ornament using just a clear glass ball ornament, covered in Metallic Silver Waffle Paper. You'll want to sit down with your favorite movie or show for this part! :)

Here's a close-up of the ornament:


Don't you just love those sparkly snowflakes? I was pleasantly surprised to see that even though it's a Sizzlit die, the Northern Frost Decorative Strip Die will cut through the thicker Silver Glimmer Paper! And I just love the font in Hand-Penned Holidays!

Here's my matching card:


Cards are so much more fun with a coordinating inside and envelope, don't you think?

10 Things I Love About You mini album - UStamp with Dawn and Friends

Hello!

Just a quick post - my mini album entitled "10 Things I Love About You" went live today on the UStamp with Dawn and Friends Knockout Punches event!


Our 10-year anniversary is coming up in February, so I decided to create an album with 10 things I love about Seth. :)  How awesome is it that I have it done early?  Yay!

The album covers were cut from On Board sheets, and covered with paper.  Here's a peek inside:


If you'd like to access the tutorial, you can find this along with over 50 other projects as part of the UStamp with Dawn and Friends Knockout Punches event!  I have one more project for this event, which will post soon!


Thanks for stopping by, and have a great night! :)

Life's Moments Paper Bag Album - UStamp with Dawn and Friends

Hello!

Here is the last project set that I created for the Paper Parade event at UStamp with Dawn and Friends!


It's a paper bag mini album!  This was the first time I'd made a paper bag album and I just loved it!  My favorite color combo lately seems to be Pink Pirouette + Marina Mist + Pear Pizzazz + Soft Suede, doesn't it?  And of course, you have to add in my all-time favorite Crumb Cake too. :)

Here are a few pages from the album:


With the next couple of pages, you can see there's a little side pocket under the Beau Château Side Note to the right:


Each set of pages has an insert where paper bag originally opened.  Here's one of my inserts:


My tutorial (along with over 40 other full-color PDF tutorials as a package deal!) can be found over at UStamp with Dawn and Friends Paper Parade.  Thanks for stopping by!

Housewarming Gift Set - UStamp with Dawn and Friends Paper Parade

Hello!

My housewarming gift set project went live on UStamp with Dawn and Friends Paper Parade last week!  This project would be a great alternative to a bottle of wine or a toaster, don't you think? :)


The set includes a framed wall décor piece that says "Home Sweet Home", and has Mini Clothespins attached to allow you or the recipient to switch out the photo when they'd like!  Also included is a set of tumbled tile coasters.  I just love the Sweet Floral image, don't you?  I can see so many uses for this pretty background stamp!

If you'd like step-by-step instructions for this project and over 40 others, visit UStamp with Dawn and Friends Paper Parade!

Have a great rest of the weekend, and thanks for stopping by!

Halloween Wreath - UStamp with Dawn and Friends Paper Parade!

Hello there!

I'm just popping in to show you one of my projects that I made for UStamp with Dawn and Friends Paper Parade that was posted this morning!  This event is all about celebrating our lovely cardstock and Designer Series Paper.




Wouldn't this be lovely over the mantel, as part of your Halloween decorations?  You could certainly hang it on your front door, too, but I wouldn't put it where it could be exposed to the elements (in between a front door and screen door could work).  And can you believe.. it's only made from about half a pack of the First Edition Specialty Designer Series Paper!  It's definitely not a small wreath however, as it uses a 12" wooden wreath frame as the base, and is approximately 20" across.  It was so fun to make, and definitely creates a wow factor!

You can find my step-by-step tutorial as part of the UStamp with Dawn and Friends Paper Parade event!  There are over 40 full-color tutorials included in the price - a great deal!

Let me know what you think, and thanks for stopping by!

Celebrate Today

Good morning!

Can you believe it's September already?  The year is just flying by for me!

Today's card uses Stamping 411's sketch challenge from this week, and some of my favorite colors...


I'm really loving the look of this sentiment stamp set, Perfectly Penned.  What do you think?  I love that it's a little elegant, yet a little whimsical at the same time.  It also has a touch of vintage!

The lovely Fancy Fan Letterpress Plate was used with Crumb Cake Craft ink, on Crumb Cake cardstock.  It feels so nice to the touch - just like a real letterpress.  A great subtle effect!

Today also marks the release of the new Holiday Mini Catalog!  This is my favorite Mini of the year!  Be sure to check it out here!

Well, I have a lot on schedule for today, so I have to run!  Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

Celebrate Today card supplies:
Stamps:  Creative Elements, Perfectly Penned
Ink:  Daffodil Delight, Soft Suede, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake
Paper:  Pool Party, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, and Very Vanilla cardstock, First Edition Specialty Designer Series Paper

UStamp with Dawn and Friends!

Hello!

I just wanted to share with you my special holiday project!  When Dawn came to me and asked me if I would like to be a guest designer for her UStamp with Dawn and Friends holiday event, I was just so excited!  This event is called I ♥ the Holidays and is just filled with all kinds of lovely goodness!

Here's a look at my project, which went up at midnight - I just love how it turned out!


The little book on the left is a Christmas Planner!  I've always been meaning to create one of these, but would always run out of time.  Nothing like being prepared for Christmas in August!  :)


The planner opens up, and there is a mini book inside, with folders for gift, meal, and decoration planning and journaling, as well as spaces for you to document special traditions and other notes.  There are also pockets inside for the card and tags!


If you'd like step-by-step instructions on how to make it, head on over to UStamp with Dawn and Friends!  You get over 40 amazing tutorials and project ideas from awesome designers.. well worth the price IMO!

Have a great night, and thanks for stopping by!

Kindness Matters

Hello!

Here is a card I created, using Stamping 411's sketch as a starting point:


I'm telling you, I just love the products in the new Idea Book & Catalog... those romantic/vintage images just appeal to me so!

I stamped the large doily background image onto First Edition Specialty Designer Series Paper - isn't it pretty?  One of my new favorites!  I also love the half-doily image in the Kindness Matters stamp set (and that font?  Gorgeous!) - it fit so nicely in the large scallop die-cut from the Tasteful Trim Bigz XL die, which I cut from the Beau Chateau Designer Series Paper.

The focal area of the card was created by first embossing the Lucky Limeade cardstock with the Designer Frames embossing folder, then I tore around the embossed portion.  I cut out an oval using the Ovals Originals die, and stamped it with the trio of butterflies.  The butterflies were also stamped onto another piece of Very Vanilla, watercolored, and cut out.  I added them on top of the stamped oval with Stampin' Dimensionals to add more dimension:


It felt so good to make a card!  It's been way too long. :)

Well, I have to run for now, but thanks for stopping by!  Have a great night!

Kindness Matters card:
Stamps:  Kindness Matters and Hello, Doily background stamp
Ink:  Early Espresso, Soft Suede, Pink Pirouette, Marina Mist, Lucky Limeade
Paper:  Soft Suede, Marina Mist, Lucky Limeade, Pink Pirouette, and Very Vanilla cardstock, First Edition Specialty and Beau Chateau Designer Series Paper

Memory Makers August Blog Bounce - Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!


Hello and welcome to my stop on the Memory Makers Magazine Blog Bounce!  If you've been following along, you should have arrived from Lain's blog, but if not, you can start at the Memory Makers Magazine blog, or you can just continue on from here.

Our theme this month is all about the changes in our lives!  If there is one thing that is "constant" and predictable about life, it's change.  Some of you may know that Seth and I have been together for a long time.. 9-1/2 years this month, to be exact!  I thought it would be fun to create a page with a few different photos of us from over the years.  :)


I used a PageMap from this month, changing a few things here and there, but sticking close to the sketch.  I really love this sketch and can see myself using it for many different layouts!

It was a lot of fun to pull out some of our "older" photos, from before the digital camera age. :)  I did a lot of stamping and distressing on this page, and even misted some Vanilla Shimmer and Gold Glow Smooch Spritz!

The journaling reads:  "It's funny to see that even after 9-1/2 years together, we really haven't changed much physically.  Well, Fluffy looks cuter. :)  But our love is definitely much deeper. ♥"  (By the way, Fluffy is 7 years old; she joined our family in 2004.)


It felt so good to stamp after not doing so for a while!  Here's a close-up of my title area:


Don't you think that the Timeless Portrait Designer Series Paper is just perfect for the theme?  I absolutely love this collection! :)

Ok, I have to run for now.  Your next stop on the blog bounce is Wendy's blog!  Enjoy the hop, and thanks for stopping by!

A few updates!

Hello!

Just a quick post for now, with some information on a few things!

I'm back from Convention!  Well, I've actually been back for a little over a week now, hehe, but I've been busy getting things together after being away.  I had so much fun at Convention!  Here's a picture of me and my roommates (yes I had 7 roommates!).. excuse our shiny faces!:


I love how half of us are looking at a different camera. :)

I'm currently accepting new members into my online stamp club!  This round will begin in September, and run through March 2012 (taking a break in December).  Space is limited, so contact me ASAP if you'd like a spot!

Memory Makers Magazine July Blog Bounce



Hello and welcome to my stop on the Memory Makers Magazine Blog Bounce!  If you've been following along, you should have arrived from Susan's blog, but if not, you can start at the Memory Makers Magazine blog, or you can just continue on from here.

This month we're all about the vacations!  If you know me, you know I don't get a chance to go on vacation very often, so when one comes along, I truly treasure it and try to soak it all in!

Last summer, I vacationed in Nags Head, North Carolina with my mom's side of the family (they live in Georgia).  We've never vacationed with them, so it was a nice treat.  We rented a house that was actually part of Corolla, NC (a little further south of Nags Head), but we spent a bit of time in Nags Head, and I just think of it as such. :)  I've traveled to Nags Head and Myrtle Beach with Seth's family a few times, so I'm fairly familiar with the whole area.  We stayed in a lovely house that was big enough for all of us (we had 21 of us there - not all are in the photo below).  The backyard butted up to the community's golf course, which had a beautiful lake.

Ok, on to my page!  :)  To create it, I used a PageMaps sketch Julie posted on the Memory Makers Magazine forum as a jumping-off point.  I didn't use the challenge color combo, as I was going for a more beachy look.  I loved the sketch though!


I love the look my grandmother has on her face.. too funny. :)

I used one of the die-cut sheets from the new Flirtatious Specialty Designer Series Paper - the back side.  The other side of this particular sheet is Pumpkin Pie.  I layered some doily punch-outs from the Doily Triple Layer Punch, along with a Top Note die-cut.

I cut out a circle with my Circle Scissors Plus, then stamped along the edge with a couple stamps from the Delicate Doilies set.  Here's my journaling:


Well, I am off to Stampin' Up!'s Convention!  I still have some last minute things to take care of, of course!

Your next stop is Lisa Pace's blog.  Enjoy the hop, and thanks for stopping by!

{friend to friend} card

Hello and happy Wednesday!

I have a card to share with you!  Yes, I indeed created a card! :)

I loved the Stamping 411 sketch this week, so I just had to break out my new SU! preorder goodies and play!  Here's my card:


Isn't that patterned paper just beautiful?  It's from the upcoming Pocketful of Posies Designer Series Paper pack.  I love the graphic feel of the papers, although I know I'm not usually a clean and graphic kind of person. :)

I cut a piece of the DSP and sewed it onto the Whisper White and textured Rich Razzleberry pieces.  I punched a strip of Whisper White using the upcoming Lace Ribbon Border Punch, and overlapped some Early Espresso Satin Ribbon along the top.  Some stamping for my main piece, and there you go!  Three pearls to the right of the stamped piece finish the card off nicely, I think.

Hope you liked my card!  Thanks for stopping by!

{friend to friend} card supplies:
Stamps:  Bliss (Sale-a-bration 2011), Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink:  Crumb Cake, Rich Razzleberry, Night of Navy
Paper:  Crumb Cake, Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White, and Pear Pizzazz cardstock, Pocketful of Posies Designer Series Paper (available July 1st)

Memory Makers Magazine June Blog Bounce - It's a Guy Thing!


Hello there and welcome to my stop on the Memory Makers Magazine Blog Bounce!  Our theme this month is "It's a Guy Thing", honoring the guys in our life.

You should have just come from Susan's blog, but if not, don't worry!  You can continue on from my blog, and continue your way on through.  The Memory Makers Magazine blog has a list of all the participants as well.

So as some of you may know, my fiancé Seth and I do not have any children yet, but we do have a furbaby, Fluffy. :)  She is definitely treated like she's our child!  I love watching the two of them interact and play - it's so sweet!


Something fun - this page uses a couple of items that will be in the new Idea Book & Catalog available on July 1st! See the fun new border punch?  Yay!  That's the Lace Ribbon Border Punch - it's a big one - and it's so pretty!  I trimmed the left side there to round out the doily.  I also used one of the new In Colors, Pool Party. My favorite color is blue, and it's the perfect shade of blue for me! :)

I stamped the background DSP with the flourish image from Elements of Style in VersaMark ink, then heat embossed with white Stampin' Emboss powder.  The piece of Pool Party cardstock was stamped with the ship log image from The Open Sea, then I distressed the edge using the tool in the Cutter Kit.  I then inked around the edge and sewed it to the background DSP, which is sewn onto the Crumb Cake textured cardstock.


I printed out a few of my favorite photos from a time when Seth and Fluffy were playing. :)  Lots of times we play around with her, taking in a deep breath, and acting like we're going to blow air at her fur.  She always tries to intercept that with a kiss. :D  Anyway, the small photos are about 2" x 3", and adhered to a piece of Whisper White cardstock.  The little leaf stamped in Crumb Cake from the French Foliage set (which will be in the new catalog, yay!) makes a great "masculine" accent.

Here's a close-up of the left side of the page:


The journaling on the shipping tag reads:  "Watching you with Fluffy is so heartwarming.  I know that when the time comes, you will be such a great father. :)  Love you!  xoxo ♥".  I wanted to let the pictures and journaling take center stage, so I did not add a title.  Plus, I think it's better without one, although I rarely leave off a title.. this might even be the first time!

Hope you liked my page!  I had so much fun making it.. think it was all of the blues!  hehe

Your next stop is the Memory Makers Magazine blog!  Hope you enjoyed the bounce, and thanks for stopping by!

Stamps:  French Foliage, The Open Sea, Elements of Style

Memory Makers Magazine May Blog Bounce


Hello and welcome to another Memory Makers Magazine Blog Bounce!

This month our blog bounce is all about the people/things/events that shape us and make us who we are today.  If you have been following in order, you should have hopped on over from Wendy's blog.  If not, don't worry!  You can go to the Memory Makers Magazine blog and begin the blog bounce, or you can continue on and find your way back around.  Hope you enjoy the bounce!

So as some of you may be able to guess, one of the biggest "things" to impact my life is my furbaby, Fluffy.  She came into our lives when she was just a few months old, in 2004.  I definitely cannot imagine my life without her!


I drew inspiration from this PageMaps blog sketch - I love this sketch and see myself using it again, changing it up even just a little bit!

There's a bit of punching and stitching going on here. :)  The journaling reads:  "As soon as we brought you home (really as soon as I looked into those sweet little eyes), my life forever changed.  My sweet puppy Fluff. :)" I don't know what I'd do without her!  And this picture.. well.. this picture always makes me smile!  She looks so funny in it. :)


The flower in the corner of the photo was created by ripping a strip of Designer Fabric, then twisting it and rolling it around in a circle.  I used Crystal Effects to hold it together, and to attach it to the layout itself.


My flags were created by first cutting a rectangle of Designer Series Paper, then inserting the edge into the corner of the Curly Label Punch.  Doesn't it make such a cool edge?  Love it!

Your next stop on the blog bounce is Lisa's blog.  Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy the rest of the bounce!


Because of you page supplies:
Stamps:  Nature Walk
Ink:  Soft Suede, Baja Breeze, Early Espresso
