LNO Cards 2-13-10

February 14th, 2010

  Here are some of the cards we made today.

Thank you card using SAB retired set

July 22nd, 2009

  My kids were lucky enough to go boating a few weekends ago, so we made a thank you card to send to the hosts.  I used the SAB 2009 set, So Many Scallops, In Full Bloom is where I got the stem and the sentiment came from Sincere Salutations.  The paper and ink is Regal Rose, Riding Hood Red and Old Olive.  The flower print paper is a single sheet from Michael’s purchased last week.  It matches the Stampin Up colors really well.  The scallop circle punch is my favorite.  I also used the1/2 inch circle punch for the center of the flowers.  The flowers are raised with dimensionals.  I cased this card from Nancy Riley at istamp.com.  See her card here  I really like Nancy’s blog.  She always has awesome cards.  My son just taught me how to do the link so I can show the card I used for inspiration.

If you are a Stampin Up customer or hobby demo, don’t feel like you can’t use retired products.  I’m going to try and make a lot of cards using retired Stampin Up products so you can be inspired to use everything you already own.  If you make cards with retired products, please send me a link and I’ll show them here.

I want to have another LNO (Stamp A Stack) in August, so watch for details coming soon.

Thank you card
Thank you card
I made a set of thank you cards for a friend, using the Flower Power Card Elements on page 167 in the Spring Summer catalog.  The kit was very easy to use and included the buttons, brads, ribbon etc.  I also decorated a candle from Gold Canyon candle company to coordinate with the thank you cards.  The Flower Power Card Elements kit is only $15.95 and was fun and easy and could be used by non stampers. :)
