Baby's First Framelits are a blast!

 

I know a couple of people who are having babies this summer, so why not make cards ahead of time? Thanks to my friend and downline, Barb, I have a baby girl and a baby boy card. Barb brought these cards as make and takes at our most recent American Ink gathering.

 

 The sentiment is helped with two circle punches and some Whisper White baker's twine. We knotted the saying over a strip of silver ribbon, which is over three white scallop strips.



Same card, different colors. Barb brought us mini silver brads for the wheels, but I just used Brights candy dots (and you don't need to punch any holes!). Barb pre-diecut the buggy from Baby's First Framelits for us, since we met in a restaurant. I love it! Now bring on the babies! 

Great week to get some framelits at a discount

Work of Art

 



I still have cards to share from my last American Ink team gathering in Port Orchard earlier this month. This card was brought as a make and take by Frankie. It uses the Moonlight paper stack, and new In Colors Hello Honey and Lost Lagoon. The sentiment is from the Work of Art stamp set (wood 134133, $29.95; clear 134114, $21.95).

I'm so proud of my son. He's taking driver's ed this summer and just got behind the wheel of a vehicle for the first time two weeks ago. He passed his first driving test, though it was stressful, he said. In addition, I've been gathering items from my home and studio for a garage sale. My hubby's leaving town for a few days, so I thought that'd be an ideal time to do it.

This summer is "light" for stamping. I have a card club meeting tonight, and will be doing a 20-card class July 12. I've got a fun road trip planned with my bestie next month. I can't wait!!!

I hope you enjoy this beautiful day and make the most of your week. As always, if you want to place an order, please visit my Online Store at http://therubberroom.stampinup.net. There are all kinds of fun, new things to play with!

Viewmaster card

 

I received this beautiful card in the mail for my birthday and couldn't have been more pleased! My friend and downline, Holly, made this Viewmaster card (see the semi-circle punched on the right? Take your finger to move the white part down to reveal the entire message. So cute!

 

I turned the "wheel" once to review another word. The stamp set is a new photopolymer set called Endless Birthday Wishes.

 

I love the vibrant color and layers Holly used, as well as the rhinestones.

 



I'm hanging onto this card. I know how difficult it is to make! lol

Thanks, Holly. You're the best!

Mini coffee cup FUN!

 

My friend and downline, Barb, brought this fabulous project for us to make at our American Ink team meeting. She ordered the mini coffee cups and lids from a restaurant supply company. They are the CUTEST!

 

Linda, one of my favorite credit union employees, smiled so brightly when I gave her this treat through the drive-thru. She told me she saves the 3d items I've given her, and even shares the goodies from time to time. lol

 

As you can see, we were able to stamp and punch a sentiment for the cup, as well as decorate it all around, including the lid. It's so adorable! Thanks, Barb.

Endless Birthday Wishes

 

I prepped this cute and easy birthday card for a make and take at my most recent demonstrator gathering.

 



The sentiment and cake images are from the photopolymer stamp set Endless Birthday Wishes (only $13.95!). I stamped them using the Jet Black StazOn pad. Then I used a couple strips of the Moonlight paper stack (item 133701, $6.95) to add patterns and color to the card front. I colored the cake using an aqua painter and ink pads, then cut it out and popped it up with dimensionals. I CASE'd a card by fellow SU! demo Diana Gibbs. She used washi tape instead of paper strips.

I hope you have a great day! I've been filling out thank-you and birthday cards, and getting ready for a garage sale (which means clearing things out of my kids' rooms!).

Dies, washi and ribbons - oh my!

For Dad the Traveler

 

This ship brings forth great memories of cruises my hubby and I have taken - several as Stampin' Up! incentive trips that I earned, and the very first one we took as an adventure to Alaska in 2007.

So I figured this Traveler card will be perfect for my hubby. I layered a piece of paper from the Moonlight dsp stack (item 133701, $6.95), on a Whisper White card. The ship from Traveler (item 134513, $19.95 clear; item 134510, $27.95) is stamped in Lost Lagoon (a new In Color) and layered on the same color card stock, then adhered to the front of the card with dimensionals and a banner punched out of Hello Honey card stock.

A green Father's Day card

 

There's nothing like an oak tree and embossed wood grain to say "Happy Father's Day." This card uses Gumball Green and Chocolate Chip card stock and ink. The greeting is from Delightful Dozen, which is now retired, but the tree is from Lovely as a Tree - a longtime favorite. This design was one of the 10 at my last 20-card class. It's quick, since we used the 2-1/2" circle punch after stamping the tree, and paper snips to make quick work of the banner.

 

I have an opening in my Card Club. We're going to be starting another round in August, so if you're interested, please contact me. You'll get a free catalog, a few projects to make each month at my studio, and hostess benefits twice during the catalog year. You just commit to ordering $30 in SU! product every month that we meet. That's it! Please email me at ericandterry@comcast.net. Thanks!

Perfectly Penned birthday

 

I celebrated a big milestone birthday this past weekend (okay, this past WEEK), and there were so many highlights. But my favorite thing was this card my hubby made me!

 

He said he found the already-embossed Crumb Cake layer, though he had to cut it down to layer on the card front, as well as the Very Vanilla oval. But he stamped everything, punched the ticket and added the antique brad and glimmer brads.

 

He even added this wavy Crumb Cake strip inside (another find in my file drawer). I love my hubby so much! He's the best.

 

I'm not one to fixate on age. It's more about how you feel, I think. And I feel young! What is nice, is hearing from all of my friends and family. I am feeling the love, and I truly appreciate it. Here's hoping you feel the love today!
