Little Box of Love

For a second week the focus is retiring sets and product from the 2018-19 Idea Book & Catalog. Here is my project for today's Sisters in Stamping post--

I used the retiring stamp set Inspired Events (pg. 88, #143693, $26.00). I was really disappointed to see this set on the list last month-- you see I had just purchased it!! 😒

The Gable Boxes are retiring (pg. 193, #145568, $8.00/12 boxes), also the Rich Razzelberry Velvet Ribbon (pg. 201, #147016, $8.00/10yds.).

Last day to order these products is June 3, 2019! 

This little box of love would be perfect for a Graduate or Bride!

Happy Stamping! Karla 😉

Shaker Sheltering Tree

Well, hey! 😏 The Sisters are wrapping up this year's 2018-19 Idea Book & Catalog with a few cards and projects of retiring stamp sets. Here is my card for this week--

 I used Sheltering Tree to make my shaker card, it is a really fun technique. Here is a picture of it "shaken"--

Come back next week, we will have one more week of retiring cards!

Happy Stamping!

Way to go Grad

Hello there! I have a great Graduation card to show you this week for the Sisters in Stamping Fabulous Friday post. 

I used a retiring stamp set and dies called Swirly Bird. The great thing about this card is that it can be tailored to your graduates school colors.

Thank-you for stopping! 

Happy Stamping, Karla 😁

Ready for Spring!

Oh my, can you believe we are already into May! Although it has been a little chilly here in South Dakota and it hasn't felt like Spring has arrived. The Sisters are showing off some cute Spring cards tho this week, here is my donation-- 

I used the soon to be retired Hostess set called Springtime Stroll. Love that little bird wearing the boots-- way too cute! The background set, Burlap and the ribbon are also leaving-- too bad really like that burlap look. 😢

Thank-you for coming by today! Here's hoping that we get some warmer weather and that it doesn't go right to Summer eh?

Happy Stamping, Karla 😉

Trying a New Technique

Welcome back to this week's Fabulous Friday post. The Sisters in Stamping are trying a new technique this week is called Masking Tape printing (here is a tutorial for the technique). I've also incorporated some retiring Stampin' Up! products-- 

 I used quite a few retiring products, first the stamp set-- it's called Lemon Zest and it has a matching punch Lemon Builder #143712. The color is called Lemon Lime Twist and it is one 2017-2019 InColor that is also retiring, along with the black Mini Sequin trim #144259. The technique calls for painter's tape but I used some of the retiring Washi Tape instead, it worked well as a replacement.

Here is the inside of my card, I used the other 1/2 of my lime wedge.

Well, that's it for me, make sure to take a look at what the other Sisters are doing!

Happy Stamping! Karla 😉

Easy Easter Treat

 Hello and welcome to this week's Sisters in Stamping Fabulous Friday post, we are focusing on Easter this week. Here is my project--

I made a template to trace the ears onto a brown paper lunch sack, filled it with Easter candy. Stamped the small rabbit from Best Bunny to make my tag and colored it with Stampin' Blend markers. Best Bunny is one of the newer sets in the 2018-19 Idea Book & Catalog that has it's own matching punch.

Here is a close-up of the tag, you can see that I used the Light Sea Foam Blend marker to rim the rabbit, to trick the eye to thinking that the rabbit is whiter.

Make sure you check out the other Sisters projects for today, they are pretty darn cute!

Happy Stamping, Karla 😊
