Send Me Soaring card - Occasions Mini Stamp Camp March 25, 2012

Demonstrator's website I go to as well as on Splitcoaststampers.  This is a very fun stamp set to play with.  I picked these clolors as I thought it could almost be used for a smasculine card.  What do you think?

Occasions Stamp Camp - March 25, 2012


You know the feeling that you get when you see a really beautiful or cool card and you just want to recreate it......well that is the way I feel everytime I see a paper rosette.  Over the past couple of months I have noticed them alot.  It seems everyone is into rosettes.  I have tried to make them by scoring a piece of paper every 1/2" and then folding it by hand myself.  I even had a rosette on a Christmas card at one of my Christmas stamp camps and for those of you that attended that Christmas stamp camp know that I was not successful and should have never done that type of card.  Welll I think I have found a solution to my rosettee problem.  On page 28 of the Occasions Mini Catalogue you will see the answer to my rosette problem........a Designer Rosette Bigz XL Die.  Yeah!  This was a recent purchase of mine and I have had a chance to play with it a bit and as you can see I made a card with it.  Doesn't look too bad does it now.  :)   This Rosette Bigz XL Die is awesome!  It cuts and scores everything for you and all you have to do is fold it and put the proper adhesive (Sticky Strip) on it so that it stays in place.  The above card will be one of the designs that we will be making at my Occasions Stamp Camp on Sunday, March 25, 2012.  Won't you come and join me for some stamping and rosette fun!

Fun with Stamping Techniques

 Hello Stamping Friends! I have been busy creating for my upcoming StampingTechnique Club next weekend.  ONe of the technique that I will bedemonstrating is the Baby Wipe Technique.  This technique is a lot of fun and makes for amazing stamped images.  If you haven't tired this technique yet ...you really need to do so. 

The Pig card was made with the Pig image from the Button Buddies stamp set.  To get this multi-colored effect I  used 3 different Classic re-inkers (Pink Pirouette, Regal Rose and Crumb Cake ).

The flower card was made with image from the Mixed Bunch stamp .  Italso uses uses 3 different Classic Re-Inkers (Pear Pizzazz, Baja Breeze and Marina Mist).  I really like how well both of them turned out.

Whenever my Stamping Technique and Scrapbook Club meets we always do a technique or 2 as well as a double page scrapbook layout.   I have a great idea for a scrapbook double page layout using the multi-colored Pig image. I can't wait to show it to you!
