Stamping with Lynn

Halloween Candy Dish Decor using Washi Tape!

I am using a chick waterer for my Halloween candy!  One of my downline, Katie Baldwin, had a jar decorated with the Stampin'Up! Washi Tape and loved the idea.  I can't remember what hers looked like, but got the itch to play around with this waterer and I had the tea lights from a year ago.  I made the bats using the Bitty Butterfly punch and then just punched the bottom of the wings off using the circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack. Hope you like the bat punch art! I attached them with a mini glue dot.  This will be easy to change out for Christmas or any occasion as the Washi Tape peels right off.  Off to craft some more!  Happy stamping!

Christmas Collectibles stamp set & Christmas Ornament Punch

Using the Christmas Collectibles stamp set and the coordinating punch which can be bought as a bundle, saving you 15%.  I used the Greetings of the Season stamp set which is available on the Holiday Carry Over list for the sentiment.  My card base is Crumb cake with layers of Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, and Whisper White, with a strip from the Season of Style designer series paper stack.  I also did some paper piercing around the half circle.  Then I finished it off with either Basic Pearls or Rhinestones.  Remember, this month's Christmas Stamp a Stack is this Thursday.  Let me know asap if you attending.  I will be cutting soon!

Christmas Collectibles stamp set

Which one do you like better?  I am using paper from the Season of Style designer series paper stack, $6.95, #132181, 48 sheets: 24 each of 2 double sided designs.  4.5" x 6.5" (sized for card fronts).  My card base on both is Crumb Cake, with layers of Early Espresso or Cherry Cobbler.  The Christmas Ornament punch makes it easy to punch out the designs in the Christmas Collectibles stamp set.  This can be purchased as a bundle saving you 15% and is on page 35 of the Stampin'Up! Holiday Catalog.  My Crumb Cake circle is done with the Circles Collection framelits. Of course I had to line an envelope with the new Envelope Liners Framelits Dies, #132172, page 37.  I also used the new rotary scallop blade on the strip.  It is hard to see but this was done with the rotary add on for the trimmer.

Circle Card Thinlits with extended flap

I used the Christmas Collectibles stamp set and coordinating Christmas Ornament Punch which can be purchased as a bundle, saving you 15% (Page 35 of the Stampin'Up! Holiday Catalog).  The sentiments are from the More Merry Messages stamp set, which is on the carry over list and can still be purchased.  My card base is Cherry Cobbler and the striped paper is from the Season of Style designer series paper pack which you will receive if you are registered for September's upcoming Christmas stamp a stack.  The date is September 26th, 6:30-9 p.m.  You will make 12 cards, 3 of 4 different designs.  Your $25 fee includes the 12 cards, 12 envelopes, one sheet of dimensionals, and a pack of the Season of Style designer series paper pack.  Left overs go home with you! Please let me know by this Saturday if you are coming! My card base of 5.5" x 11 is die cut with the Circle Card Thinlits.  Actually it is just slightly narrower than 5.5 inches so that it slides right under the thinlit, but leaves the opposite end ABOVE the thinlit so that it doesn't cut your cardstock.  This is the easy way to get that extra extended flap!

Expressions Thinlits Dies, New Rotary Cutter Addition

Lots and lots of new product with these cards!  I used the Expressions Thinlits Dies, page 36 of the Stampin'Up! Holiday Catalog for the "Merry", which is cut from the Silver foil sheets, page 28.  My designer paper is from the Winter Frost Designer Series Paper Stack, and notice the scallop edge of my Island Indigo cardstock?  It is from the accessory blade for the Rotary Add On for the Stampin'Up! Trimmer!  Wow, it works so slick!  Of course I had to make an envelope with the new Envelope Punch Board, and since my card is 3" x 6", I just followed the chart on the punch board.  Easy Peasy!  My card bases above are either Smoky Slate or Bermuda Bay with layers of Pool Party and Island Indigo.  My downline will be making this card tonight!  I hold monthly downline gatherings where we stamp, swap, and share.  Join my team and share the fun!  Gatherings are the 3rd Tuesday night of the month!

Truly Grateful candy favors

These are quick and simple to put together.  I did a Christmas one awhile back, casing a Halloween treat idea of Becky Roberts who got the idea from another gal.  I used Pumpkin Pie cardstock because I had Pumpkin Pie ribbon to match.  The paper is from the Sweater Weather designer series paper, page 18 of the Stampin'Up! Holiday catalog, and the sentiment and stamped acorn are from the Truly Grateful stamp set, page 19 of the same catalog.  The designer paper is die cut with the Chalk Talk Framelits.  The ribbon is secured in back with a mini glue dot, and then just wrapped around to the front and tied.  I didn't even have to adhere the sides of the "pocket".  This would make a great Thanksgiving favor or a little thank you token to show your appreciation!

Circle Card Thinlits with extended flap

Love these Card Thinlits!  Here I did the extended flap so I have a place for a gift card and signature.  I got this idea for the extended flap from Dawn Olchefske.  Just cut your card base slightly smaller than 5.5" and then the length is 8.5".  While most of the cardstock is under the thinlit, the length for the right side of the card goes OVER the cutting edge.  My card base and matching envelope (envelope punch board, yay!) are Crisp Cantaloupe, with layers of Raspberry Ripple and Very Vanilla, and Birthday Basics designer series paper.  Love this dsp! The sentiments on the flip circle are from the Bring on the Cake stamp set, page 14 of the big Stampin'Up! catalog.  The "For you" is from the Round Array stamp set.  I would have lined my envelope, but I need the dsp for a downline meeting.  I love the envelope liners framelits, too!
