MORE Sassy Stampers

I want to share more projects from the Sassy Stampers.  The first one is a cute Halloween treat--a spooky S'More Kit and Halloween Scratch Off. These were done by Marie Ortiz.  She is so talented!
 

 
Aren't they cute!  I will share my version and the instructions for the scratch off tickets in the coming weeks.
 
 
The last treat I want to share was done by Carol Sprague.  She spent multiple hours preparing these for the group.  I am sure you will agree--they are awesome!  Each high heel was decorated with different bling.  It was so hard to pick just one.
 

 
Here is the whole group!
 
 
Stay tuned because next month we are having card swap and I will have more projects to share.
 
Thanks for visiting,

Sassy Stampers

The Sassy Stamper are a very talented group of friends who get together once month to share ideas.  This month we were treated to a Halloween Party!  I went home with a several wonderful gifts and I have their permission to share them with you. 
 
 
Shirley Burnett was our hostess this month.  She made the cutest table decorations for each of us.
The little bag that was filled with candy.  Did you recognize the Top Note die?
 

Shirley also brought a table full of treats that she had made.  We each got to pick a couple to take home.  She even provided a decorated bag to carry home all of our treats.  She really was a wonderful hostess!


Here are my picks!  I can't wait to Case these projects.

Check back later this week for more Sassy Stamper projects!

O Christmas Tree


 
 
This little Christmas tree is a CASE from the Annual Catalog and an idea I saw on Pinterest.  Unfortunately, I did not get it pinned and cannot remember the demonstrator's name.  The design was made with the new Scallop Punch and a variety of stamps from several sets. 
The card base is 4 1/2" X 5 1/2".  I used the Be of Good Cheer DSP, Gumball Green, and Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  The background texture is the Chevron folder.  One of the scallops was run through the Latice folder and one was done with the Dotted folder for variety.

Stamp Club Project #2

Our second project for Stamp Club this month was a CASE of a Mary Fish "original".  I was looking for an idea using the Ornament Keepsakes bundle.  When I saw the card Mary posted last week, I knew it was the one.  
 


 
The "Be of Good Cheer" Designer Paper makes a beautiful Christmas card.  Don't you agree?
 
 
I have tried a few other variations.  Using different papers from the Be of Good Cheer set.


I wanted to try the card with different ornaments and/or sentiments.  I also spritzed these cards with the Champagne Shimmer Paint(my new favorite).
 

 
What do you think?  I think I better order another pack of this DSP.
 
Card Recipes
Bundle:  Ornament Keepsakes Bundle with Paper Piercing pack
Stamp Sets:  Merry Message, Sweet Essentials
Paper:  Be of Good Cheer DSP, Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Gumball Green.
Ink:  Cherry Cobbler and Gumball Green
Tools and Accessories:  Itty Bitty Punch Pack, Designer Pearls, Champagne Shimmer Paint, Gumball Green Satin Stitched Ribbon, 1 1/4" Square Punch.

Card Club Project

Christmas is just around the corner. Today I am featuring one of this month's card club projects.  As my children get older, it becomes more difficult to shop for the holidays.  I find myself purchasing gifts cards more often.  Stampin' Up products can be used to make quick and easy gift card olders.
 
 
I used the large tag from the Two Tags Die.  The pocket uses a 3 5/8" X 8 1/2" piece of card stock which was scored at 4 1/4".  Use sticky strip to seal the two long sides.  I used a 1 3/8" circle punch to punch out the tab at the top of the pocket.  The entire pocket was run through the Big Shot in the Houndstooth Texture folder.  A strip of Be of Good Cheer Designer Paper and a Snowflake decorate the front.  Check out the shine on the pocket! I hope you can see it.  I added a few drops of Champagne Shimmer paint to rubbing alcohol in one of our new misters.  Spritz a little on the front and the back. It is an easy way to add shine to any paper project.
 
Remember you can use Glue Dots to adhere your gift card to the tag inside the pocket!
 
Card Recipe
Stamp Sets:  Merry Messages
Paper:  Be of Good Cheer DSP, Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, and Gumball Green
Ink:  Gumball Green, Versamark
Tools and Accessories:  Houndstooth and Dotted texture folders, Snowflake Bigz Die, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, 1" Circle Punch, 3/4" Square Punch, Gumball Green Satin Stitched Ribbon, Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine, Two Tags Bigz Die.

Paper Pal Arts Challenge

It is time for another sketch challenge with the Paper Pal Arts. 
Margaret Moody has designed another great sketch to inspire us. I encourage you to try a sketch challenge.  It is a great way to get started and a lot of fun to see the different ways a single sketch can be used.
My card  uses several new products from the Holiday Catalog. The Ornament Keepsakes bundle includes the stamp set and the matching framelits.  The Festival of Prints paper pad combines Cherry Cobbler, Island Indigo, Bashful Blue, Lucky Limeade, Early Expresso, and Very Vanilla - 48 sheets of 4 1/2" X 6" paper(12 different designs).  They are perfect for Christmas cards but versatile  enough  to be used year round. The Lacy Brocade texture folder compliments the beautiful designs on the ornaments perfectly.
Card Recipe
Bundles:  Ornament Keepsakes bundle
Stamp Set:  Merry Messages
Paper:  Festival of Prints, Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Island Indigo, and Bashful Blue
Ink:  Cherry Cobbler and Island Indigo
Tool:  Scallop Border Punch, 1 1/2" Square Punch, Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine, Lacy Brocade texture folder.
