Hello

 Hi there everyone,

Thought I'd pop in and share with you a card I made for the monthly stamp club that meets here in my home. This card was for the challenge theme of using some stickers I handed out at the May meeting.

These stickers are so cute IMHO. I get them at the Dollar Tree and they are in the craft section. They are 3D and come pre-colored and you get 5-6 in each pack. I am hooked on them. The leaves you see on the card are in a leaf set also at the Dollar Tree. These stickers really assist you in making a card in quick fashion.(Yes, these are stickers, however I attach them to some CS and trim the CS away and attach to my card with hot glue. I just don't think the adhesive on the backs of the stickers is strong enough.)

I decided to use some small square frames and the solid squares that pop out of the frames when I make my die cuts. I embossed the solid squares with dots for added interest. I also added a border all the way around the card using a gold border sticker. This card is a 5X7 size 


Well this card came together very quickly. 

Products I used on this card:
  • White CS, Purple CS
  • Flowers nd leaves stickers from Dollar Tree
  • Square Dies
  • Border Stickers
  • Memento Elderberry Ink
  • Stamp Hello (Old)
I am submitting my card in the following challenges:

Hope this card will give you some ideas for a future card.

Thanks for stopping by today. I will be back soon

March Stamp Club - The Challenge Card

Hi there,
Glad you stopped in today
Tuesday nite was the monthly stamp club meeting
We make 2 cards each month - a theme card and a challenge card.
Yesterday I shared my Theme Card. Click here if you missed it.

Today I want to share my challenge card.
Each month we are given something to use on our challenge card and the finished project is due to be presented at the next meeting. At the February meeting we were given a sheet of poster stickers to use on our card/project for the March meeting.


There are 3 strips on this sheet and they are about 16" long and 2" wide.
The strips are precut, wavy on one side and straight on the other side. 

I used the strip kind of like Washi tape.
But I applied the sticker to card stock to make it easier to work with for this project.
I trimmed away the card stock on the the wavy side to match the sticker.
Since the stickers were too wide for my project, I trimmed on the straight side so the sticker would be abou 1" wide and  4 3/4" long. 
I used 2 strips, added a few other items and here is the finished card.




I added texture using embossing folders and a die cut for additional interest. 
Next the sentiment was the finishing piece.


SUPPLIES I USED ON MY PROJECT
Paper/Card Stock: White CS, Pink CS
Dies Used: Sizzix - Tim Holtz thinlits-  friend set; Memory Box- Lavish Branch (old)
AccessoriesPeel and Stick Poster Stickers (from Dollar Tree), Alcohol Markers (to color branch), Embossing folders, Art Institute Glitter Glue (My fav)

it makes me think outside the box.

JOY

Hello everyone,

Welcome to Karen, my newest follower.

Oh I am late in getting this post out here on my blog. Sorry!! I am back today with what is my last Craft-Dee BowZ post here for 2014. CDB will have a few more posts left to finish out the year and then will have two new designers starting in January. Make sure to check out the Craft-Dee BowZ blog for the last of this years' posts.

These stair step designs have always fascinated me and they are tricky to cut. So, I recently bought a stair step die from Accucut and decided to use that card design for this, my last Craft-Dee BowZ project for this year.

Let me share this card with you.


I used a typewritten designer paper to mat the front while I used an embossed white card stock to mat the back.


 On the steps I used a cut out of the word JOY using that same designer paper



Here is a close-up of my bow. I made a triple loop bow and positioned it up by the top step, allowing for the card to be closed and mailed.

SUPPLIES USED ON MY PROJECT
Stamps:  Sizzix - Holiday Joy (Stamp & Die Set)
Paper/Card Stock
: Green CS, White CS, DP
Ink: Memento - Olive Grove, Peanut Brittle, Rich Cocoa
