Baby Wipe Technique

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card for Masculine Monday. So my end result does have glitter, but I still think this is a pretty masculine card. I used the baby wipe technique to have a bit of fun with the retiring I Think You're Great stamp set. I love this technique! I seriously need to make more cards using it.

SSINKMC33: Going Places Thank You

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using elements from the mystery challenge below.

 

For this month's challenge, I used four the elements: shape, colors, special element, and theme. I played with picking some patterns from the Going Places DSP stack and helping to fill out the remaining spaces with a washi tape covered circle and a stamped circle. The size of the circles are slightly off, but overall I love the look of this card.

 
  • Stamps: Another Thank You (retiring); I Think You're Great (retiring)
  • Inks: Delightful Dijon
  • Cardstock: Going Places DSP; Delightful Dijon; Very Vanilla
  • Accessories: It's My Party Washi Tape; Gold Embossing Powder
  • Tools: 1 1/4" Circle Punch

Washi Tape Holder

The perfect 3D project for this month's stamp club. I loved making this simple yet usable washi tape holder. Now I want to make a ton to hold all my washi, but I might just settle for a few to hold the current SU washi sets. The project may look complicated, but it's really very simple. The cuts and scores are as follows:

5 Tape Holder

Cardstock – 11 x 6-5/8″

Score on the LONG side at 1, 3, 5-1/2, 8, 10″

Score on the SHORT side at 2, 4-5/8″

3 Tape Holder

Cardstock – 11 x 5-5/8″

Score on the LONG side at 1, 3, 5-1/2, 8, 10″

Score on the SHORT side at 2, 3-5/8″

From there, you fold from the outside in to make the basic box. Cut diagonally to create the opening on either side of the box. To finish, add washi tape around the edge to hold the two flaps together.

Sunday Haul #4

I popped into Michael's for snail and ended up grabbing some silver dots, sticky strip (I ran out the other day), trimmer blades, a birthday cake banner (for next year), and a very cheap paper pad. I have plans for this paper for the retreat.

And my Stampin' Up club order came on Friday. There was some miscommunication and problems, so I ended up taking the hostess benefits for January instead of my randomly picked month of May.

  • PL Memories in the Making Card Set (SAB item)
  • Birthday Blooms stamp set
  • Bow Paper Clips
  • Glue dots
  • It's My Party Washi Tape
  • Rose Red Ink Pad
  • Berry Basket Die
  • Going Places DSP Stack
  • Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper
