WWYD Wednesday

It's been a while since I've posted a WWYD card so I thought I would share the latest.  Here are the supplies. 

 

 

 

And, this is what I came up with.

Here are the supplies for our next Technique Tuesday class.

Want to play along and see what you can come up with?

 

 

I posted a few Halloween projects the other day and I'd like to share the directions on how to make one of them.  Today, I will be sharing the directions on how to make the Halloween snack pouch.

 

You will start with a 4" x 6" piece of background paper, I used the Howlstooth & Scaringbone Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!  Apply sticky strip to the 4" side and in the middle of the top and bottom, as shown below.

Attach the 4" ends together and it will look like a roll.  The stripes made it easy to line up.

Then, lay the tube down with the seam facing up and flatten it out.  Remove the red part from one of sticky strips and attach the end together.  If you'd like, you can use a crimper to that end.  I put Lucky # 13 candy corn in and repeated the previous same steps with the top to create a pouch.

Then, decorate!  I used the Toxic Treats stamp set for a tag and tied some Basic Black Taffeta Ribbon to create a cute bow.  After it was all put together, I spritzed it with a Basic Black Marker.

 

This was a very fun and easy project to make!  Just change the paper, color theme, stamp set, etc... and the possibilities for this idea are endless!

 

Have fun!

Wanna Play?

Last night was my Technique Tuesday class and we learned the *Tap Dancing* technique.  But, before I get to the projects we made, I wanted to share another fun part of this class.  It's called *WWYD* ~ What Would You Do?  Everyone gets an envelope of the same supplies to take home with them.  Then, at the next Technique Tuesday class, everyone brings the card they made with the supplies.  It is so fun to see what everyone created and no 2 cards are ever the same. 

SOOO, I thought I would see if you wanted to join in the fun, too?!  Here are the supplies that everyone got at class last night.  Just copy the supplies below and see what you can create.  Feel free to share what you made by emailing me a pic and I will post it here after my next Technique Tuesday Class, along with what everyone at class created.  Wanna play?

(If you'd like to check out our WWYD cards from last night, go to my meetup site:  www.meetup.com/inkie-pinkies)

WWYD Supplies:  8 1/2" x 5 1/2" Tempting Turquoise cardstock, 4 1/4" x 2" Brights Collection Paper Stack, 1 1/2" x 5 1/2" Whisper White cardstock, 2 Whisper White Blossom Punch, 1 1/4" Pumpkin Pie circle punch, 1" Whisper White Circle Punch stamped with Pumpkin Pie Mixed Bunch stamp.

This is the 1st time trying this on my blog so if you have any suggestions or questions, they are always welcome!

Ok, on to the *Tap Dancing* technique we learned last night.  I found this technique in the Stampin' Success for April.  As a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, we receive this magazine monthly.  It's a great source for ideas and motivation.  Feel free to contact me if you'd like to know more!

This is the card we made in class.

This is the note card/envelope we made using the Scallop Envelope Bigz Die.

Tap Dancing How To:  Choose a stamp and a lighter color ink pad and a darker color marker.  You can use more than 2 colors but I just used 2 on each project.  You will ink up your stamp with the lighter ink pad then randomly color over the inked stamp with a darker color marker.  Just try it once and you will see how easy it is.  And, each time you do it, it will never come out the same twice.

 Have fun with this technique!  Contact me if you'd like a list of supplies.
