Peachy Keen – Stampin’ Up! Card

Hello There,

Well I’m back from Colorado.  I took a quick trip there to see my Nephew, David Knaisch marry his sweetheart, Cindy.  Super lovely wedding, outside in the snow no less, but the love that was present warmed everyone.

Congratulations!  David and Cindy.  🙂

Now about today’s card, I created it by giving it an old farm stand sign feel.  But it made me hungry for a nice juicy peach, yummmm.   I hope it inspires and warms you.

Patriotic Horse

Hello There,
How about a little bit of down home patriotic flair today?
One of my favorite things to do for a background of a silhouette image is some simple Red, White and Blue ink using the direct to paper technique, plus it grabs my heart as well.
I am using this card as a birthday card, but the sentiment could easily be changed to say thank you, thinking of you etc.
I hope this card inspires you as well.  🙂

On another note:
I had a fabulous Christmas holiday with family and it was anything but peace on earth at my house, but it sure was fun.   You see, we had a nerf gun war after opening our gifts Christmas morning.
This is Jesse getting shot at.  He was the one that got everyone a nerf gun for Christmas, too fun.  I’m telling you my life was in danger taking the pictures.
This is Luke (right) and out Grand doggie Slug (left).  They look just a bit concerned at all the commotion, lol.  But it all settled down after about an hour.
Then things looked more like this. . . . . .
This is my son Mitch with his wife, Jamie and daughter, Hailie Jade.
********************************

I hope your Christmas Holiday was just as fun.

Until my next post. . . . . .
Huge Hugs!

Yesterday I was busy, busy making Banana bread for Russ’ co-workers.

I kid you not!  Lots of Banana Bread.  I have such a wonderful recipe that his co-workers start asking for the banana bread at the beginning of December when they know I make it much closer to Christmas.  It is moist and yummy!
Here is the recipe:

BANANA BREAD

2 Cup All Purpose Flour

1 tsp.Baking Powder
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 Cup Sugar
3/4 Cup Mashed Ripe Bananas (2)
1/2 Cup Milk
1 Egg
3/4 Cup Melted Margarine
In a bowl stir all the dry ingredients together.  In a separate bowl combine remaining ingredients.   Combine wet and dry ingredients until blended.  Pour batter into greased bread pan.  Bake at 350 for 1 hour 15 minutes
Makes (1) 5 x 9 inch loaf or (7) mini loafs.  Bake mini loafs 45 minutes.
May your day be filled with fun and laughter!

Until my next post. . . . . .

Sweetest Gift 1 – Stampin’ Up! Card Tutorial #624

 

Hey There,

Happy Friday!  I’m ready for the weekend.   How about you?   I need a little R & R, but I have a feeling I’ll be spending time doing some odd jobs that need done around here over the weekend.   I’m hoping for  a bit of a break in the soring temps so I feel like working outside again.   At least I want the feels like temp to be down below 100!

Anyhow, today I’m working in my nice air conditioned office, so no complaints.  I have a cute baby card for you today using the Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Gift stamp set.   Add some clouds and grass and you have a sweet scene to add to your card.   What new parents wouldn’t  get a grin from receiving this?

Check out my tutorial on how this was done below.

***************************************************************

I’ve added the featured card of the day to my sales page where you will also find some great deals on retired stamp sets and my beginner brayer videos.  CLICK HERE TO CHECK IT OUT

**************************************************

Now on with today’s tutorial. . . . .  . .

Project Supplies:

Stamps: Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Gift (item #130586)

Card Stock: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White and Pear Pizzazz

Ink: Stampin’ Up! Marina Mist, Pear Pizzazz and Stazon Jet Black

Accessories: Stampin’ Up!  Sponges, 1 3/4″ Scallop Circle  Punch (item #119854), Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder (item #117335), Whisper White Ribbon, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Daffodil Delight, Basic Black, Blush Blossom, Pear Pizzazz and Blushing Bride Stampin’ Write Markers and the Big Shot Machine

Started with a 3″ x 4″ piece of Whisper White card stock.  Stamped the baby by coloring directly on the stamp with Pear Pizzazz and Basic Black.  Huffed my breath on the stamp and then stamped it.

Colored the baby’s skin Blush Blossom, shirt Daffodil Delight and then outlined the diaper and bottom of the parachute with Basic Black.

 

Added Pear Pizzazz to the bottom of the parachute and diaper to give it some shading.

Punched a scallop punch out of scrap paper and used it as a mask to create the clouds using Marina Mist ink and a sponge.

 

 

Sponged Pear Pizzazz ink at the bottom of the card stock.

Added Blushing Bride dots at the top of the grass for flowers.  We want that baby to be landing in something soft, lol.

Added Blush Blossom to the baby’s cheeks.

Stamped the sentiment using Stazon Jet Black ink.

Cut a 4″ x 5.25″ panel of Pear Pizzazz and embossed it using the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder and Big Shot Machine.

 

Added a Whisper White card base and Whisper White layer to the main image panel.  Also added Whisper White Ribbon.

Simple Canning Labels – Stampin’ Up! Tutorial #622

Hey There,

My garden is in full swing and it’s CANNING TIME!  I love putting up beautiful jars of home grown food.

Yesterday, I canned 8 jars of zucchini relish, 12 jars of bread and Butter pickles and started my sauerkraut (which has to ferment for a few weeks).

The new Stampin’ Up! stamp set, Kind and Cozy and matching Gingham wheel will make my finishing touches on my canned goods super simple to do and they will look oh so cute.  Check out below just how simple it is to make cute labels and belly bands for your jars.  Keep in mind the jars can hold whatever you want, even stamping supplies!

**************************************************

Now on with today’s tutorial. . . . .  . .

Project Supplies:

Stamps: Stampin’ Up! Kind & Cozy (item #129126) and Gingham Wheel (item #130110)

Card Stock: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White

Ink: Stampin’ Up! Cherry Cobbler, Pink Pirouette and Stazon Jet Black

Accessories: Stampin’ Up!  2 1/2″ Circle Punch (item 120906), Decorative Label (item 120907) and Sticky Strip ( item 124294), printer for label title

Stamped the Gingham circle on Whisper White card stock using Cherry Cobbler ink.

Stamped the words “made with love” using Stazon Jet Black ink.

Stamped the heart using Cherry Cobbler ink.

Stamped the flowers using Pink Pirouette ink.

Punched the circles out using the 2 1/5″ circle punch.

Printed the text out for my label on Whisper White card stock and then punched them out using the Decorative Label Punch.

Cut Strips of Whisper White card stock and then rolled the Gingham wheel on the strips using Cherry Cobbler ink.  I then cut the edges off of the strips to straighten things up a bit.  I can never wheel straight, lol.

Also wheeled the Gingham wheel on the top and bottom edges of the label using Cherry Cobbler ink.

Here is the put together jars.  Again, this was super simple and fast.  Now that I have my design down for this years labels I will do the same design only in different colors.  So next I’ll do my canned bread and butter pickle jars only in Old Olive.  I plan on using the same design so when I gift a basket of home made items they will coordinate.

May your day be a total delight.

Until my next post. . . . . .

Huge Hugs!

Not Just For Fall II – Stampin’ Up! Card Tutorial #606

Hey There,

I’m continuing on using the Stampin’ Up! set Gently Falling for today’s card tutorial.  I hope you are seeing just how valuable this set is all year long.  It’s so much fun using a stamp set in an unexpected way.

Leaves are on the trees, pretty much 9 out of 12 months of the year here in Ohio, but it seems that we really only appreciate their beauty in the Autumn months.  Why is that, especially since they give us such relief from the heat in the Summer by provided us much needed shade.  Okay, I confess, I’m a tree hugger, lol.

Check out the tutorial below.

!***************************************************************

I’ve added the featured card of the day to my sales page where you will also find some great deals on retired stamp sets and my brayer video.  CLICK HERE TO CHECK IT OUT

***************************************************************

Now on with today’s tutorial. . . . .  . .

Project Supplies:

Stamps: Stampin’ Up! Gently Falling (item # 123804) and DayDream Wheel (item #126939)

Card Stock: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White, Old Olive, Pistachio Pudding,  and Island Indigo

Ink: Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Marina Mist, Island Indigo, Always Artichoke and Old Olive

Accessories: Stampin’ Up!  Sponges, Soft Suede Seam Binding, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Wood Embossing Folder, Regals Candy Dots, Versamark pad, Heat Gun, Clear Embossing Powder and Big Shot Machine

 

Load the Daydream wheel with Versamark and rolled across a 3″ x 6.25″ piece of Whisper White card stock using a ruler to keep things straight.

Heat emboss the image using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.

Sponged Marina Mist ink at on the left side of the card stock.

Sponged Crumb Cake ink on the right side of the card stock.

Added Soft Suede ink to the right center of the card stock and around the edges on the right side.

Sponged Island Indigo ink on the left center of the card stock and around the edges of the left side.

Stamped 3 leaves on Pistachio Pudding card stock using Always Artichoke ink.

Stamped the leaf filler stamp using Old Olive.

Cut the leaves out and sponged Soft Suede ink on the stem end of the leaves and Island Indigo on the top tips of the leaves.

Adhered the leaves to the main image panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals on the top of the leaves and glue on the bottom (stem end) of the leaves.  This adheres the leaves to the card stock and pops the top of them up but secures the stem.

Cut a 8.5″ x 3.75″ piece of Island Indigo card stock and embossed it using the Wood embossing folder and the Big Shot machine.  You need to run it through twice to get both ends of the card stock.  You can see the crease where the design meets but it looks like part of the design once the card is put together.

Added a 8″ x 9″ Old Olive card base and Soft Suede Seam binding.

Added a 3.25″ x 6.5″ Old Olive panel under the main image panel and the adhered them to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Also added Island Indigo Candy Dots.

Here is the completed card that measures 4″ x 9″.  This size card fits into a #10 size business envelope.  Anyone remember how all the funny cards years back use to be this size?  Maybe I’m showing my age here, lol.

Not Just for Fall Leaf – Stampin’ Up! Card Tutorial #605

Hey There,

I’ve been busy, busy with my vegetable garden of late.  When you are growing food you are a slave to the calendar starting the season out.  Got to prepare the soil and get those seeds and plants in the ground so they have time to grow before seasons end.  Oh yeah, and keep everything weed free.  That’s a full time job around here.   Sounds like a lot of work and it is, but boy I love my fresh veggies and the exercise is great for me to.

Anyhow, I’ve come in out of the garden to give you today’s tutorial.  Check it out, I’ve used the beautiful Stampin’ Up! set Gently Falling for this project.  Remember to give those Seasonal stamps a look now and then.  Don’t just put those Autumn sets in a box and not bring them out until October.  They can be used year about.  Take for instance my card today, I could use this card for a thank you, thinking of you or sympathy.   Keep your leaves green or white and stay away from the yellow and orange colors for your leaves and you have an everyday scene.  My complete tutorial for this card is below.  Enjoy!***************************************************************

I’ve added the featured card of the day to my sales page where you will also find some great deals on retired stamp sets and my brayer video.  CLICK HERE TO CHECK IT OUT

***************************************************************

Now on with today’s tutorial. . . . .  . .

Project Supplies:

Stamps: Stampin’ Up! Gently Falling (item # 123804)

Card Stock: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla and DSP from the Patterns Stack Neutrals

Ink: Stampin’ Up! Always Artichoke, Cherry Cobbler and Soft Suede

Accessories: Stampin’ Up!  Sponge, White Gel Pen, Crumb Cake Seam Binding, Basic Black Marker, Stampin’ Dimensionals and Basic Pearl Jewels

Started with a 3″ square piece of Whisper White card stock.  Masked the bottom 1.25″ with a post it note and then lightly sponged Always Artichoke ink, using a back and forth motion, on the unmasked area.

Sponged just a little Cherry Cobbler ink at the post it note edge.

Sponged Soft Suede ink at the post it note edge and the top of the card stock.

Removed the mask and put it back on to cover the top 2.25″.  Sponged Always Artichoke ink lightly on the unmasked area.

Sponged Soft Suede at the post it note edge.

Removed the mask and lightly sponged Soft Suede ink in the uninked section of the card stock.

Stamped the leaf using Always Artichoke ink.

Colored the leaf in using a White Gel Pen.

Here are my layers:

Very Vanilla Card base 10″ x 6.5″ folded in half

Soft Suede 5″ x 6.5″

Very Vanilla 4.75″ x 6.25″

DSP 4.5″ x 6″

Very Vanilla 3 3/8″ square

Soft Suede 3.25 square

Assembled the DSP on the largest Very Vanilla panel.  Added Crumb Cake Seam binding, adhering the ends to the back of the Very Vanilla panel.  Adhered those panels to the large Soft Suede Panel and then to the card stock base.  Assembled the main image panel, Soft Suede panel and Very Vanilla panel.  Adhered them to the larger panels using Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop it up.

Cut another piece of Seam binding and slipped it under the already attached Seam Binding and then tied it.

Added large Basic Pearls to the main image panel.

The leaf was looking a bit flat so I added a bit of Basic Black marker to the bottom of the leaf to give it some dimension.

Here is the finished card.

Before I close I have an announcement to make, the Mystery Hostess for the drawing ending May 21, 2013 is . . . . . . . Diana Simpson!!  Diana receives the hostess benefits from the pool orders using the last hostess code.

That went so well, let’s keep doing it.  Here are the details:
