With my BFF Tracy coming in JUST A COUPLE DAYS!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I am trying to get my 10/10/20 Birthday class all figured out so that when she is here we can just enjoy each other's company, stamp for fun, and I won't have to "work". So I have been checking out blogs, PCP, SCS, and the Stampers Showcase for card ideas. I mean why re-create the wheel when you can copy and tweak.
So this is one of the cards the girls will do in class, and I found it on Stamper's Showcase (that is a gallery that Stampin' Up! updates every day for us Demonstrators), the original card was sent in by Burdine Osborn, and she used different DSP, cardstock, ribbon, and brads, but it is basically her sketch, and I loved that there is minimal stamping (I mean all that is stamped is the greeting) the rest is the DSP, I mean heck why cover it up, it's beautiful. I did use the texture plate on the tempting turquoise in the back. I am so loving those now that I spray the paper with alcohol first, it makes a big difference.
Stamp Set: Hugs & Wishes
Paper: Garden Green, Tempting Turquoise, So Saffron, Very Vanilla, Flock Together Designer Series Paper
Ink: Tempting Turquoise
Misc: Vanilla Brads, Vanilla Tafetta, Texture plate
Isn't it a neat card? I need to do this more often, it will be a super quick card for everyone to make in class, it will take longer cutting the paper for it…ha!

I also want to remind anyone wanting to receive my email newsletter to email me at digibbs@stampingwithdi.com to be added. Also if you want to subscribe to my blog (this is different then the email newsletter) click on the link to the top left that says subscribe in a reader. I was having issues with Feedblitz my old subscribe thingie, so you may have to subscribe again. I don't know if you are all getting email updates like you should.
Well this old gal is hitting they hay early tonight, I was feeling very sluggish today, I did not get as much stuff done as I wanted, and I have 2 days to get it all done now, before Tracy gets here…did I mention that? My BFF is coming…for a week, I can hardly stand it. Deep breath!
Have a super Monday, and thanks for stopping in!
Diane,
Why do you use the spray alcohol before you emboss? Do you spray it on first? Could you please explain? Thanks Marie
Cute card – I should use this sketch and use up some of the masses of designer paper I have.
I EXPECT FULLY DETAILED BLOG POSTINGS THE WHOLE ENTIRE TIME TRACY IS THERE. I must live vicariously through the two of you!
I'm so excited for you both – I know you have been counting down the days/hours/minutes/seconds until she gets there! I want to see lots of pictures!!!!
Luv ya,
Jax
P.S. we missed you at the family picnic yesterday…the singing girl was there again…looking for bald men…..and Granny….well thought she was as sickening this year as she was last year!!!!
:o)
