More Creative Crew Projects and Blossom Builder’s Kit

CCREW0412CF – Catalog Focus – for April we were to use our Simply Scrapping kits or Quick Accent kits and at least 2 of the 2010-2012 In Colors on our project.  I chose to make a stationery holder with matching cards and envelopes.  This is a quick and easy challenge to do, so why don't you join the challlenge and upload your creation?  We would love to see what you come up with using the Simply Scrappin' kits and/or Quick Accents kits.

Here is the closed folder:

DIRECTIONS:   The folder is made from one sheet of card stock that is scored at 5 1/2" on the long side and at 2 1/2" on the short side.  On the inside picture, you will see I cut a V  on the 2  1/2" section so that the folder will not bind when closed.  Punch holes with the Crop-a-dile and thread your ribbon through to tie it all together!

Cards for All Occasions from Stampin’ Up’s 2012 Occasions Mini

March is going by fast, I knew it would be a busy month and I am trying to play catch up with my blog posts.  Below are some of the cards from this month's card buffet.  All cards used stamp sets from Stampin' Up!'s  2012 Occasions Mini catalog. The first card uses Outlined Occasions from the Sale-a-bration catalog and Beautiful Wings embosslit from Stampin' Up!. I, also, used the embedded embossing technique.

Next is an Easter card I created with the Hostess set Up in the Air:

And I love the Bordering on Romance stamp set, as it is a great set all by itself, and because it coordinates with the Adorning Accents Edgelits and Adorning Accents Textured Embossing Folders as well. The watercolor marker technique was used to color this card.

Kindess Matters Every Day!

I created the eighth card for my January Card Buffet using Kindness Matters stamp set shown on page 13 Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper on page 7 of Stampin' Up!'s 2012 Sale-a-bration catalog and Artistic Etchings from Stampin' Up!'s 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog.  I love how this card turned out.  I added sponging to the edges to finish it off.

Carrie and I got together last month and created cards for our card buffets.  Creating the cards together is twice as much fun plus a whole lot faster!  We chose the stamps and most of the papers for these cards from Stampin' Up!'s 2012 Occasions Mini catalog and the 2012 Stampin' Up! Sale-a-bration catalog.

There are 12 different cards in all and most papers and stamps are from both Stampin' Up! mini catalogs.  More tomorrow!

Tea Shoppe Thank You Card

Carrie and I got together last month and created cards for our card buffets.  Creating the cards together is twice as much fun plus a whole lot faster!  We chose the stamps and most of the papers for these cards from Stampin' Up!'s 2012 Occasions Mini catalog and the 2012 Stampin' Up! Sale-a-bration catalog.

Fifth card for my January Card Buffet uses the Tea Shoppe stamp set from page 19 of Stampin' Up!'s 2012 Occasions Mini catalog. I love everything about this stamp set!  I used Stampin' Up!'s Twitterpated Designer Series Paper on this card and took the color directly from the paper and just HAD to add 3/8" Riding Hood Red 3/8" Pleated Satin Ribbon to complete this card.  This was, by far, the favorite of everyone!
