Stamping with Lynn

Digital Starter Kit 30% off promotion - Ends May 31st!

If you’re considering the opportunity to share what you love (stamping!), then this is a great time to join the Stampin’ Up! family.  The Starter Kit with My Digital Studio is 30% off until May 31st, which makes the kit $122.50 instead of the normal $175.  Even at $175 it’s a great deal–the kit has over $320 in Stampin’ Up! product.  Plus there are great benefits — an all expense paid cruise for 2 is just one example! The 8 day Alaskan cruise was just this month! Next year, it is a Disney World opportunity!

Contact me for more info and I’d be happy to talk with you.  The Starter Kit special ends on May 31st, so  contact me by email or you can sign up on my website here right now under the tab Start Your Own Business.  I offer monthly downline meetings where we swap, do 4 projects, share ideas, fun, and laughter! Please consider joining my team!

Happy Stamping!

This is the single Sail Away stamp from the new Stampin'Up! Summer Mini Catalog.  Sail Away is on page 11 and is only available in wood mount for $9.95.  I used more new product, too.  I used the Nautical Expedition designer series paper, page 8 - $10.95, and Baker's Twine (Cherry Cobbler/White), page 10 for $2.95.

Other products are Jumbo eyelets, page 188, for $9.95, Night of Navy and Whisper White cardstock, 2.5 inch circle punch, ticket corner punch, and a crop a dile to set the eyelets. Order online here.

 

Red Hat box favor

Okay I love the hat boxes I have been seeing but haven't seen a Red Hat Society one.  I used glimmer paper which is still available, #121790, $3.95 for two 12x12 sheets.  Other supplies are:

Bigs Scallop Circle Die, 2.5 inch scallop circle punch, Concord Crush cardstock, Birds and Blooms sizzlit, Glimmer Brads, and sticky strip.  I used an empty brad container for the hat.  You can either empty one out or you can buy them empty, #103649.  Fill with candy or brads, buttons, eyelets, etc.  This was fun to make and easy! The bonnet idea was inspired by Christy Harsch.

Fabulous Florets Stamp Set

Here we go again.  This one is a very simple, quick card.  Colors are Marina Mist and Very Vanilla.  Notice the tiny pearl in the center of the flower.  I also used the color spritzer by placing the Marina Mist marker in it, and then squeezing the bulb which sprays a fine mist or color blotches on your card. 

Fabulous Florets Stamp set, Embossing on Black

Still playing with this new stamp set and the new embossing powders that are in the new Summer Mini catalog.  I just stamp the image with Versamark, then cover with the embossing powder, and heat with the heat tool.  It is a wow as you watch it melt and get shiny and raise up!  I used the new Flower Garden embossing folder as well.  Colors are Melon Mambo, Tangerine Tango, Wild Wasabi, Basic Black, and Whisper white.  The sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set. 

Fabulous Florets stamp set

This one is a case (copy and share everything) of Lisa Martz.  She had a scalloped edge, I do not. She had a different color ribbon, but I have an extra flower.  Love the new colored embossing powders! And I LOVE this floral set!  The designer series paper is from the Hostess Level I paper pack.  Colors used are Wild Wasabi and Tangerine Tango. Also used the 2 1/2 inch circle punch.  The sentiment is from the Happy Greetings stamp set.

Fabulous Florets Stamp Set

A set from the Summer Mini Catalog that just begs to be heat embossed with the fabulous new colored embossing powder.  I used the Wild Wasabi (oh, I love to say that word - Wa Sa Bi ) for the stem/leaves and then the Melon Mambo for the flower which I cut out and popped up with a dimensional.  The sentiment is from the Happy Greetings stamp set, another one from the mini catalog.  Notice the  Flower Garden embossing folder I used for the texture.  Lots of new items used on this card!

Coasters!

Oh, my gosh!  These are so fun to make! And soooo easy!  Did you know that Stampin'Up! carries cork sheets?  Yup!  They are on page 205, 6 sheets (6x13) for $9.95. I cut the cork,  Adhesive Sheets, and Beyond the Garden designer series paper, and Medium Window sheets to 4.25 x 4.25 inches.  Layered the cork, adhesive sheet, designer paper, adhesive sheet, and window sheet and ran it all through the Big Shot (amazing die cutting machine!) and woolah, coasters!  The adhesive sheets are still available - #120805, $14.95 for 12 sheets that are 12x12!  The medium window sheets are in the big catalog on page 205, #114323, 2 sheets of 12x12 for $4.95.  I used the Bigz Clear Circle Die, #114533, $19.95 on page 207. Directions for this idea were in the Stampin' Success, a demo only monthly publication.  It is chock full of info, samples, and achievements, etc. 

Strength and Hope Class samples

Here are the card samples from the Strength and Hope Class.  Stampin'Up! donates $2 from the sale of each Strength and Hope stamp set for Breast Cancer Research.  If there is enough interest I may hold this class again (also available by Class by Mail).  Details were posted earlier so scroll down to view. 

The single card at the top of this post was designed by one of my downline, Robin. Another downline, Sarah, designed the middle of three.  I designed the one in front of and behind her card.  The last card was a swap and I don't know who to give credit to.  If it is yours, let me know!

Sail Away stamp

This is a single stamp from the new Stampin'Up! Summer Mini Catalog.  Sail Away is on page 11 and is only available in wood mount for $9.95.  I used more new product, too.  I used the Nautical Expedition designer series paper, page 8 - $10.95, and Baker's Twine (Cherry Cobbler/White), page 10 for $2.95.  On the inside, you can use any one of the sentiments from the Best Day Ever stamp set.  Those choices are:

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, thinking of you, happy birthday, or BEST DAD EVER.   That set is on page 13.  There is also an image of 5 different ties!  I have seen this tie image stamped  without the pointed bottoms of the ties, which then makes them look like vases.  It was finished off with stamped flowers!  Talk about thinking outside of the box!
