Another fun Stampin Up night

We had another wonderful Stampin Up night at Sunny's house. I always love the punch card and I think the one this month is one of my favorites...its right up there with the crow!  The bird card really highlights the new colors.  The last is just great with the "highlight". Some of the older techniques need to be revisited. I get hung up sometimes on the "latest and newest" and forget to use some really elegant older techniques.

Is this so cute or what???  It is made with the flower petal punch and others. See if you can pick out the others!

I think I should have moved the stamps over to the left more!

Wine Corks

This is a mystery project...what do you do with a coping saw,sandpaper and a BAZILLION wine corks? Well, you will have to stay tuned to see.  LOL

Q is for Quote Rolodex swap

Here are the Q rolodex works of art. 

Deb did this rolodex.  I have to know about the flower...did she buy it or make it?  It is really pretty and springs right back when you have it in an envy.

Sunny's rolodex. I am so glad she showed me hers before I made mine...I was thinking of the same set....great minds!

Gretchen made this "interactive" rolodex. The quote pushes right back into the rolodex base.

This is Jerri's rolodes.  I really love that bird.  I have the stamp set and haven't used it yet...Will have to pull it out now with this inspiration!

I have had this quote and stamp FOREVER!! They are unmounted stamps so I have no idea who made them. I bought them at separate times too.

Graduation Card

I got the instructions for this great graduation card off of  You Tube. Just search "graduation hat card" and a ton of examples will come up.

Nice thing about this card is that it folds down and fits in a regular sized envelope.  The video on you tube used ribbon for the tassle...I just happened to have a few tassels in my stash!  How convenient. Like I always say...buy supplies when you see them because you never know when you will "NEED" them!

Second Set of Coasters

I showed a friend of mine the coasters I made for my daughter and she wanted a set. She chose an "ocean" theme.  Well I looked again through all my paper...guess what...plenty of palm trees etc. but no fish, shells or beaches.  I went to Jo Anns and found this paper.  It really is a picture of a calm ocean in 12 X 12...a little harder to tell on the coasters.  I cut out a palm tree from my cricut.

I don't know what the dots are on the picture maybe something on my lens.

Baby Card

This is my version of a card that was in the SU magazine for demonstrators made by:  Barbara Dykhouse.  I tried and tried to get the pleated ribbon to work and finally gave up.  I like this version though.  Thanks for the idea!!

She used a hanger stamp but I happened to have these cute hanger brads. The little one is a Penguin Pants stamp. The dress is from the owl punch.

New Cards

I went to my friend Sunny's house on Monday for some play time. Along with making me supper I made cards that she came up with for her Stampin Up group. Very fun.  THANKS SUNNY!

I have seen so many samples in blogland with this set....I really like this card!!

How cute is this dress?  Instead of cutting out the top, Sunny is so clever and use a oval and tag punch. Much easier.

Love the colors on this card.  Such a happy combo.
