WWYD Wednesday

Last night I had my Technique Tuesday Class and I will share those projects another day.  I wanted to share the WWYD = "What Would You Do" cards that we created.  There were only 2 of us so here's what we came up with.

 

This is the one I created. 

Unfortunately, I didn't get a separate pic of Michelle's card.

 

 

 

Here are the supplies we had to use to create a card.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

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!

WWYD Wednesday

My friend Michelle wanted to do a WWYD/Shoebox Swap for her Birthday, this past weekend. There were 4 of us that attended and it was lots of fun! I loved this idea! 

 

Unfortunately, I didn't bring my camera so I didn't get pics of the supplies each person brought for their WWYD/Swap card or what everyone else created.  Bummer!  But, here are the cards I created.

 

 

I love WWYD cards because there aren't any expectations and you just create what comes to you at that moment. 

This is the Candy Bouquet I made for Michelle.  Hope she liked it!

WWYD Wednesday

Last night was my latest Technique Tuesday class and we did a *Poppin' Pastel* technique. Be sure to check back to see the cards we made using this technique.

Today I'm sharing the latest WWYD card kit and cards.  I think we all look forward to seeing what everyone came up with!  There are always squeals of ooh's and awww's!  Every card is sooo different, even though we all started with the same supplies.  Fun, fun, fun!

Here are the supplies we received at last months Technique Tuesday class.

Here is the card Michelle created.

Here is the card Randi created.

Here is the card I created.

I used a different fold for my card base.  I scored the 4 1/4" x 11" Pool Party card base at 3 1/8" and 8 5/8".  After I glued the tree image layer to the Lucky Limeade layer, I decided where I wanted it on the card front, held it in place and cut along the top flap edge.  Then, I glued the 2 tree *pieces* in place so they lined up and glued the white scallop punch piece to the underside of the top flap.  Then, I randomly glued punched flowers from the Lucky Limeade scraps.  Wa-La!

Be sure to check back later for our next WWYD kit.  Feel free to play along to see what you can create!  I'd love to see what you made!

WWYD Wednesday

Just thought I'd share the WWYD card kit everyone got at my last Technique Tuesday.  I waited to post it because I had used the Everything Eleanor stamp set that is in the new catalog.  Which by the way, is now available! 

So, be sure to contact me if you'd like your very own copy of the new Stampin' Up! catalog.  Only $2 for the catalog and if you'd like, I can mail it priority for only $5 more!  And, if you want to get real fancy, I can have it spiral bound for you for only $5 more.  I love having my catalogs spiral bound because they lay flat and stay open and it just makes life soooo much easier!  Any whooo, here's a pic of the WWYD kit.

Feel free to play along!  I would love to see what you come up with.  I will post pics of our WWYD cards after my next Technique Tuesday class on June 26th.

Thanks for stopping by!

WWYD Wednesday and Mother's Day Gifts

I know this is a day late but I do have an excuse!  :o)  I haven't posted lately because I couldn't find the cord to my camera and, being the genius I am, I just realized I can place my camera's memory card directly into my laptop, duhhh! 

To start off, I wanted to share the wonderful and thoughtful gifts my family gave me for Mother's Day.  They truly spoiled me and I didn't lift a finger all day.  It was a GREAT Day!  Thank you!

I also wanted to share the *WWYD* card guts everyone got at our last Technique Tuesday class.  My next class is coming up this Tuesday so I thought I would post just in case you wanted to play along, too.  Sometimes I think the girls look forward to this more than the technique we will be learning.  JK!  :o)

It's hard to tell in this pic so I will explain the guts.  The card base is 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" Very Vanilla, 3 Melon Mambo Floral Fusion Flowers, some leaf/stems from the Bird Builder Punch, a couple strips of Basic Black that I punched with the Scallop Edge Punch and 3 1/8" x 5 1/2" First Edition Paper.  (and 3 rhinestones, not pictured)  As always, all supplies are from Stampin' Up!

If you want to play along and share what you came up with, (we would love to see) email a pic or 2 and I will post it here.

Thanks for stopping by!
