Blogger's Challenge #70 - It's Stampin' up! Gift Giving Time

Well, better late than never as they say.  Gary and I went away for the weekend and I'm just now getting around to posting this week's challenge.  The challenge this week was to post something we would give as a gift.  This is an easy box to create.  I got the box template from Leadership last year.  Then I used a sheet of paper from the "Holiday Treasures" Designer Series Paper collection to wrap around it and finished it off with the 1 1/4" striped grosgrain ribbon from the Holiday Mini Catalog.  It's so pretty!  This is a treat bag that I'll be creating to sell at the Holly & Ivy Marketplace the first weekend in December.  Makes a great gift, don't ya think?

A Stampin' Up! Wedding Card using Together Forever & Baroque Motifs

Hello All,

My Husband has a friend at work who is getting married and he asked me to create a card for the happy couple.  We got them a gift certificate (not the one shown btw.) and I created a couple of slots to hold it in place on the inside. 

This is a pretty simple but elegant card.  I especially like how the envelope turned out.  The envelopes that we sell in our Stampin' Up! Catalog are really superior in quality.  They are super smooth and take the ink beautifully without showing thru to the other side much like our Whisper White cardstock.  As for the card, Baroque Motifs always ads a touch of elegance with the beautiful flourishes and the set "Together Forever" is an excellent one to have on hand for weddings and engagements!

  All products Stampin' Up!

Stamp Sets:  Together Forever (#1110965, $20.95, pg. 57); Baroque Motifs (#109403, $25.95, pg. 120)

Cardstock:  Night of Navy, Brocade Blue, Whisper White

Inks:  Night of Navy, Brocade Blue

Accessories:  Grosgrain Ribbon, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Slit Punch #104388

    For the "P" monogram on the envelope, I used the circle image from Stampin' Up!s "Together Forever" stamp set and the P from "Lovely Letters" stamp set (#111099, $40.95, pg. 158).  Another beauty!

Stampin' Up! - Loads of Love - it's a Classic!

This card is one I made for my husband Gary for our anniversary this month.  We got married in October and it was such a beautiful day.  The weather was picture perfect and the leaves were peaking in the Valley.  Seems like it was only yesterday, not 7 years ago.  I'm only about a 5 days late with this card.  I know - SHAME ON ME!  Thank goodness he still loves me anyway!

I tied in the blogger's challenge for this card.  We were to use The fabulous Stampin Up colors Old Olive, Really Rust and Riding Hood Red.  I pulled out Loads of Love because I like to put a couple in the truck with fun things in the back. I also pulled out my Aquapainter and watercolored the image.  This stamp set just seems to call for watercoloring.  Hope you enjoy!
