Because I Care - Simply Adorned Jewelry

OK I promise not to bore you anymore with this stamp set, but I can't help myself. Here is a piece I did for the Simply Adorned Jewelry. I used the 1 1/2" w x 2" h Beveled Glass Front Simply Adorned Charm and the 34" Simply Adorned Chain for this project.

Here is the recipe:

Stamp Set: Because I Care

Card stock: Very Vanilla, Baja Breeze

Ink: Baja Breeze, Early Espresso (also Stampin' Write Marker Baja Breeze and Early Espresso)

Accessories: Textured Impressions Vintage Wallpaper, Stampin' Dimensional, Kraft 3/8 Taffeta Ribbon, 1 1/2" w x 2" h Beveled Glass Front Simply Adorned Charm and the 34" Simply Adorned Chain.

Because I Care Purse and 5 Note Cards

In May I attended our local Stampin' Girls Convention where we learn new ideas and techniques using Stampin' Up products. This year we also did a class and made a Purse and 5 Note Cards using Island Oasis DSP (Designer Series Paper). This class is perfect so I thought I would do my version of it using one of the new stamp sets from our NEW Stampin' Up Idea Book and Catalog "Because I Care" which is a Level One Hostess Set that you earn for FREE. Which means if you host a workshop, and your total sales are over $200-264.99 before taxes and shipping you can get this stamp for FREE and $20.00 of FREE product. How easy is that, if you would like to host a workshop e-mail me studiono8@hotmail.com

Purse with Ribbon Great Gift Idea!

Three Note Cards Using Same Stamp Set though each is very different.



and the other final two.



I like to look at each stamp set in pieces and in some case I like to stamp the image and remove portions that give you something totally different like the one below. By doing this I give the stamp a totally different look that is very simple to do. Yet it looks very cool.





Here is a close-up of the images and the texture of the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder.



This time I used the whole stamp as the background, which looks so much like toile which I absolutely love! Then I created a simple tag wrapped with twine and add a little accent and again a very different look.




Again using the whole stamp produces a lovely simple Thank You note.




I love how removing portions of the stamp gives such a fantastic graphic element, very simple yet beautiful.

And lets not forget that little flower, and the other stamps that come with these fantastic set, even these stamps alone produce a very lovely card.

Because I Care

WOW Stampin' Up! has Done it Again!

Yesterday was a day of celebration, fun and great times with good friends. The launch of Stampin' Ups! anticipated Idea Book and Catalog was finally here. And it was well worth the wait. As a demonstrator I get a sneak peak as to what is to come and a opportunity to purchase a limited number of items prior to being able to order. Just one of the many perks as a demonstrator.

Yesterday my pre-order arrived and I was super excited because that meant the girls that came to my Wine and Chocolate Fondue Catalog party could also do some Make and Takes. Let me tell you we had a ball, first we ended up having martini's instead of wine which kinda tells you what mood we were in. The giggles and oh my goshes as we browsed the catalog to the this is so yummmm as we drank our White Chocolate Truffle martini's, and then to our Cosmo's. Then we got down to business of making some cards and let loose using both Because I Care which is a Level 3 Hostess Set and Artistic Etchings both are absolutely beautiful. Today I am posting the Because I Care card and tomorrow the other using Artistic Etchings which I absolutely fell in love with also!

Here is the recipe for this card:
