My favorite colors are in the Stampin’ Up Brights collection so when I saw this Global Design Project Subtles challenge, I knew it would truly be a challenge for me! For #GCP205 we needed to use So Saffron, Rococo Rose and Mint Macaron. I heat embossed the flowers and leaves with White Embossing powder. Using a Sponge Dauber, I applied the colors making two tone flowers to make this clean and simple card.

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge! I love being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0042 is Talk Like a Pirate Day (September 19). #festivefridaychallenge I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d love to help you!
The designers at Festive Friday really love bringing this unique challenge to you, and we’re always looking for ways to make it more enticing to play. The intent was never to create a project for the festivity (though you could) – but instead, to find inspiration from the festivity. With that in mind, we’re dropping the and/or, and instead, giving you an Inspo List. The Inspo List is a list of 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE of the items in your project and link up!
We think this will bring a lot of creativity and diversity to not only the Design Team projects but to yours too!

1/2” x 5 1/2” piece of cardstock for belly band
Paper cutter with scoring blade- I like to use the Stampin’ Up! Simply Scored Tool
Scissors- Paper Snips are my favorite.
Sticky Strip™ or Tear & Tape Adhesive
3 Hershey’s® Nuggets® chocolate bars
3 1” x 3 ¼” pieces of cardstock or DSP
Embellishments
Step 1
5 1/4″ x 6″ piece of DSP or cardstock. Score across the longer side (Landscape mode) at 3/4″, 1 1/2″, 4 1/2″, and 5 1/4″. Score across the shorter side (Portrait mode) at 3/4″, 2 1/4″, 3″, and 4 1/2″. See picture above
Step 2
Use scissors to remove the top left and top right sections. Corner Round the two top corners. Use a bone folder on all the score lines. Cut the tabs on the score lines.The box goes together easier if the top and bottom tabs are trimmed on an angle as shown. Apply adhesive to the center tabs. See picture above.
Step 3
Fold the top and bottom tabs in and then fold the center tab over the top. Apply the adhesive. See picture above.
Step 4
Wrap 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ piece of cardstock around box for belly band. I ran the Pumpkin Pie belly band through the Big Shot with the Subtle Embossing Folder.
Step 5
Embellish as desired.
Step 6
Wrap each Hershey Nugget with a 1″ x 3 1/4″ strip of DSP or cardstock. I punched out bats and popped them up with 1/2 of a Mini Dimensional.
To get my Pirate Bird to stand up, I cut Whisper White Cardstock at 1/4″ x 2″. Score at 1/2″, 1″ and 1-1/2″. Fold on score lines and make a triangle. Attach to the back of the Bird.

It’s Time for my 2019-20 Holiday
Catalog Product Shares
Here’s what a few people had to say about past shares that I’ve
done:
“Beth, I just now had time to open my holiday share.
You did a wonderful job of separating all the paper and the ribbon and packaging
everything. I know you spent a lot of time and effort. Everything is so
perfect, I can’t wait to start crafting. Thanks again for the
share. Donna”
“Beth, the paper share looks great. Thanks for all the careful
labeling and packaging. I love all the papers. Also, the fast delivery.
Thanks, Nancy”
Why participate in shares? Shares are an inexpensive way to sample the new Designer
Series Papers, Ribbons, and Embellishments at a fraction of what it would cost
you to purchase all of them yourself. Customers and Demos alike love
having a little bit of everything from the new catalog. When you see that
adorable card on Pinterest, you’ll be able to make it because you bought the “I
want it all” share!
How Shares Work
Simply EMAIL ME (Beth@StampingMom.com) today to reserve your spot in a share. I will then ask you to send me the money via PayPal, or you may send a check.
Once I receive the products, I will cut, count, measure and package up your goodies pronto!
Your papers will be lovingly wrapped and identified to protect them; ribbons will be rolled; and embellishments will be placed into small plastic bags. Your shares will be sent out via Priority Mail.
If any of the products are on back order, there may be a delay.
Please note my paper shares are 6″ x 12″ for most designs. A lot of people do 6″ x 6″, so you are getting twice as much paper with my shares.
