Masculine card swap with new Stampin' Up items!


 This weekend I went to a shoebox swap of current Stampin' Up products with the theme of "masculine."  A shoebox swap is where you make up the "guts" of a card and put it into a box (usually in the shape of a shoebox, duh!).  Then it gets passed around and everyone puts the card together and passes the shoebox around.  I used some new Stampin' Up items:  smokey slate cardstock and ink, Epic Day This and That designer paper, 3/8" crumbcake taffeta ribbon, honeycomb embossing folder, calypso coral ink, and an arrow cute clip from the Hung Up cute clips assortment.

 Do you remember the Fabulous Phrases I put on an acrylic block from last month's card class?  I used it again to stamp on the strip of designer paper on the card!




This designer paper is so fun because it has all these honeycomb/hexagon shapes, so I just had to pick one and cut it out to decorate the front of the card - hey, it matches the embossing folder!  We dabbed inkpads on the embossed smokey gray cardstock (crumbcake, smokey gray, basic gray) and sponged one of the colors on the edges of the vanilla card.  The triangle is the reversible side of the leftover piece from the "v" that is cut at the end of the strip of paper....That was my  inspiration for the calypso coral greeting and I like how cutting around the greeting and popping it up with dimensionals makes it stand out!

Can you see how I managed to get a little bit of ribbon on this "masculine" card?!  Like that saying, a little dab will do ya (probably dating myself and some of you might not even have seen/heard the Brylcreme commercial this saying came from, lol)


Hope you have had a chance to look at all the new designer paper in Stampin' Up's new catalog!  When you place an order with me, you get a free card, so you could get my "masculine" card for your very own!

Paper Craft Crew #45 card sketch challenge/Stampin' Up


It's that time of the week!  For the Paper Craft Crew card sketch/design challenge #45 :-) 
http://www.papercraftcrew.com/2013/06/05/pcccs-45-card-sketch/
I used Stampin' Up's My Digital Studio for my card - can you see the new hexagon punch and designer paper I put in?  I also used the woodcuts for the "this day" and "best ever" and was able to tint them using the change color option.  I love how we can resize the items for your card so quickly too!  Stampin' Up has a 25% off several of the MDS downloads until June 15th so you can buy some new ideas right after you pay for them....in my online store, of course lol.

The new Stampin' Up catalog is now available!!  Look at all the great and newest products, colors, tools, accessories, and of course, stamp sets, here:  

http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/marynoble/

After you have been through the catalog (a couple times at least, right?!), you will want to start a wish list, and maybe even a budget so you can start to get some of those items you have to have!  It's easy to order in my online store....and it's an even better time to join Stampin' Up as a demonstrator for only $99 and then you will get a 20% discount on your orders!  Plus you get either a free trimmer or stamp set from me, and my monthly cards too - Wow!!

Remember you still have a couple more days to buy Stampin' Up items from the previous catalog, if they are available - some of the items have sold out already....

Let me know if I can help you with your order, and/or joining Stampin' Up with my little team of demonstrators, OK?

Now back to going over my wish list and reviewing the creative ideas in the new Stampin' Up catalog...:-)
