September Stamp Club

Oops, I just looked at the last post date and saw it was September 4th - well, now it's the 10th and I have not kept up with my three cards per day. I have, however, completed four, three of which I used for Stamp Club last night. We had twelve had club last night including five new faces. I promised to have these cards up today and the day just flew by, but here they are and I hope everyone enjoys them. They were fun to make and once again we used the Stampin' Up Pick a Petal stamp set and made still another totally different card! I just love this set. The cards are all 4.25 x 5.5 finished size. If anyone needs measurements please let me know and I'll get them to you - tonight all I can get done is get the cards up online. So here they are and I'm off to bed - will try to post more tomorrow. By the way all cards were cased from the Stampin' Up! gallery. Thanks to all of the wonderfully creative designers who share their work.

Happy stamping,
Bev

Today's cards!

Here are my two cards for today. I'm trying for three a day, but so far haven't made it on a daily basis. At least I'm working on my goal and I almost made it today. I love both of these cards, one I cased from Stampin' Up! gallery and one was a practice card on a tutorial from Michelle Zindorf. I'm still not quite understanding the brayer thing, but I' m practicing and hopefully someday I'll get it. At least I can send this card to someone, but it's far from the one Michelle posted. I love the "friend card" made from small oval punches. I think using punches is so much fun. The next few days I must concentrate on what we'll be doing at club on 9/9 - I try to have three cards using different techniques - so must get busy looking at ideas. Will write more tomorrow and hopefully have a few more cards to share.

Wedding Reception

Wow, time flies! I just lost yesterday and failed to get my wedding reception card up for all to see. I had lots of fun making this card. I mostly use Stampin' Up! stamps, but occasionally I branch out and I love this flowers stamp. I hope you enjoy my creation.

It's hard for me to stop "talking", but I must get to work on some new scrapbook pages - so hopefully I'll have new cards and pages for my next post.

New Cards

I'm happy to say that I've actually made a number of new cards. In my last post I said I wanted to make a minimum of three new cards a day. Well, I haven't quite done that - with the holiday, but I have made a few and here they are. I love the new Sock Monkey stamp set - this is a birthday card for my granddaugher - she turns 17 in just a few days. I did a "family" portrait for the inside of the card. LOL The butterfly card I cased from SU gallery - it took me several tries to actually get all the butterflies on, you can see one card is short one butterfly and the Halloween card is my own design. I drew the fence and am making a number of these for friends and family over the next few weeks. I have one other card I made for a wedding reception, but am going to put it in separate post. Look for it tomorrow.
