If you’ve ever asked yourself, “How’d She DO that?”—you’re in the right place.
I share creative ideas, DOstamping Tips, tutorials and a touch of papercrafting magic to spark your next project.
Grab your stamps, ink & paper...and let’s get crafting!
Today I’m sharing my take on this week’s DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge. I took inspiration from the colors, Autumn Accents and peaceful feeling of the Home Sweet Home photo selection. I want to draw your attention to the pinecone/acorns. Using the Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, I cut 1-1/4″ Burlap Ribbon using the acorn image from the Autumn Accents Bigz Die.
I’m excited to share a fun and spooky project with you…Halloween Mummy Candy Bar wraps. You just need a Hershey’s Chocolate Bar, some Crepe Paper and a couple of Stampin’ Up! Punches
(along with Stampin’ Up’s Halloween Hello).
I selected some paper that was a little more masculine, Sweater Weather Designer Series Paper from the 2013 Holiday Catalog. The “love” was die cut using Champagne Glimmer Paper and the new Expressions Thinlits. TIP: As the glimmer paper is so thick – I recommend running it back and forth in your Big Shot several times, maybe even adding a shim.
My card features a trendy stamping technique called, Painter Tape Stamping. All you need is painters tape and ink! I used Lovely as a Tree, but any landscape or floral images would work great with this technique. Check out my “How’d She DO that?” video below.
Need some Super Quick & Cute cards (SQC)? Then today’s Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop card will just be the thing for you! With a couple of punches, a dash of ribbon and a touch of “candy dots”, you’ll be finished in no time at all. In fact – you should even have time to line a matching envelope. Take a look…
This week’s QC card is mostly quick, but extremely cute (MQEC!! – ha!). I’m lovin’ this Pink Cupcake with Sprinkles on Top card! It’s one of those cards that just makes me smile. It’s also one of my Just Cards Buffet class projects. I get tons of questions about this class, so I thought I’d do a video for you.
Have you noticed the Wetlands stamp set on pg 69 of the 2013/2014 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog? Well, I did. The first thing I noticed was the greetings, which I adore! Why? Because I’m fond of greetings that combine both script and printed text. (And you can never have too many greeting stamps!)
