StampingPals Challenge #6 (Sketch Challenge)



The August Challenge for our StampingPals group used a sketch which was easy enough to follow.  Elegant and simple is always good, right?  I'll always keep and use this Timeless Tropical set since I live on a tropical island.  It's so perfect for any occasion.  And during this pandemic, I've sent loads of "just because" cards to family and friends.  There's not much we can do to make this worldwide situation any easier but we CAN send a little cheer in the mail.

And if you are looking for a fun project, please hop over to www.stampingpals.com and join our monthly challenge.  It's so fun, and we'd love to see your creations.

Enjoy!

StampingPals Challenge #11 - Sneak Peek of Pretty Perennials bundle

Image
  Happy New Year!!!  Wishing us all a happier, safer 2021! The StampingPals monthly challenges continue with #11 (Color Challenge using Daffodil Delight, Pear Pizazz and Balmy Blue - see below for sketch). I'm happy to provide a sneak peek into the new Mini Catalog which will go live on www.stampingup.com on January 5th.  I love new products and the Pretty Perennials bundle is just amazing.  I adore the new "happy" stamp in this large beautiful font. . .and we certainly need to start the new year with some happy.  I also used the brick embossing folder for the background and a small pearl in the flower center to make the final touch. I hope you love this card, and that you'll pop on over to  www.stampingpals.com and see what the other stampers have created for this month!  We'd love for you to join us in these challenges.  It's easy and a great way to get your creative flow moving forward.

StampingPals Challenge #16 - Sympathy card

Image
  I've got to say that sympathy cards have always been hard for me to make.  They are not for a fun occasion, and well, it kind of brought me down to make them.  And then I realized that these cards bring such comfort to the recipient at a time when they need it most.  And so now I don't focus on the "sympathy", I focus on making a lovely card which will carry a message of love and support.  This slight change in thinking has made me really appreciate the gift of making and sending sympathy cards. My monthly Zoom class for May featured this sympathy card as part of our Quiet Meadow theme.  The base is Evening Evergreen and the DSP is from the Hand-Penned suite.  The heartfelt sentiment is the only stamping done on this card (using Evening Evergreen).  I added one die cut from the Meadow Dies (cut into pieces) and a White Crinkled Seam Ribbon bow.  For a bit of shine, three Opal Rounds were added as a final touch.  I love the new In Colors of Evening Evergreen and the

StampingPals Challenge #8 - Pack a Punch

Image
  Sometimes I overthink things and really need to just keep it simple.  I think this card works. For StampingPals Challenge #8 - Pack a Punch, the challenge was to use a craft punch to create our card.  I love the shapes that can be used without stamping.  This daisy can be used with or without the stamped images.  And I love the simplicity of it. The In Good Taste DSP is totally my fave this year and it looks great on all sorts of cards.  So classic! I love these challenges because everyone seems to have a totally different take on what to use and how to use it.  That's the beauty of stamping.  We can use the same idea and do it differently, or the same supplies, or whatever, and yet they all come out uniquely our own.  I hope you try it with us.  Hop on over to www.stampingpals.com and see what the others have created!
