Stampin’ UP! & Babies, Babies, and Babies
September 11, 2011 By
This Summer has seen an abundance of sweet heavenly babies around here.
Good friends, professional associates, adult children of good friends, babies, babies, babies, AND mind you MOST of them have been bouncing baby boys!
I love this darling clothesline of Baby Tees and the squishy Teddy Bear image from the retired Stampin’ UP! Teddy & Train Stamp Set.
One of the Big Shot Texturz plates adds a nice dimension for the background panel.
You’ll find plenty of great baby card ideas in the current Stampin’ UP! Idea Book and Catalog. You will find it an invaluable resource for all your paper crafting creations!

STAMPIN’ UP! Wedding Bells
August 16, 2011 By
Our oldest son Jack, married his beautiful fiancee’ Emily on August 6th, and of course I had to create something very special to help them celebrate their day!
Her dress was a gorgeous lace figure slimming sheath that was just breathtaking. So I tried to create a ribbon of paper lace that was reminiscent of that feeling. I used Stampin’ UP! Very Vanilla card stock because her dress was an off-white; not as vanilla flavored as the deep color in the Very Vanilla but I tried it using the Stampin’ UP! Whisper White card stock and it didn’t have the same feel. It was also very pretty, but not as much as the Very Vanilla version did.
Scrunching a length of the Stampin’ UP! Very Vanilla Seam Binding Ribbon I formed a rosette and embellished it further with a large ivory half pearl from the retired Stampin’ UP! Pretties Kit.
For the sentiment I wanted to keep it minimal, so I chose the “For the Newlyweds” image from the Stampin’ UP! Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set.
Elements used for this project:
Stampin’ UP! Punches: Lace Ribbon Border Punch #122362, $19.95
Scallop Trim Border Punch #118402, $15.95
Eyelet Border Punch #119853, $15.95
Scallop Edge Border Punch #119882, $15.95
Scallop Oval Punch #119856, 16.95
Stampin’ UP! Soft Suede card stock and Classic Stampin’ Ink.
I apologize for the unusual sepia tone to the pictures, I’m not quite sure what happened, because I didn’t do anything unusual when I was taking them other than it was in a different room than I normally use and has fluorescent light rather than the incandescent light of the kitchen. I was in such a hurry to get it mailed off, I didn’t think I needed to check the pictures before sending it!
Thanks for stopping by to see what I’ve been up to! I have another wedding card for my niece from this past weekend that I’ll post later in the week!
Have a wonderful Tuesday!

At Home with Stampin’ UP!
August 6, 2011 By
Building a special one-of-a-kind new home for your family is a very rewarding and unique experience. And nothing says Welcome like a one-of-a-kind Happy New Home Card from Stampin’ UP!
With the help of a Stampin’ UP! Patterns Pack, I put together this great summer breezy card accenting the great colors you would find in orange sherbert or a refreshing shaved ice treat from your local snow cone vendor. Actually the lucious colors are Stampin’ UP! Peach Parfait and Pool Party.
In the Stampin’ UP! Patterns Packs you get identical double sheets so I cut the pattern pieces I wanted to layer out of one sheet and using Stampin’ Dimensionals I adhered them over their counterparts on the second sheet. I cut out a couple of opposing clouds to give added dimension to the sky. This duplicate layering technique is used with stamping images as well and is a great affect for your projects.
I elected to not include the two tiny chimneys in my raised layer because I think they look perfectly fine in the background, like many chimneys are on your home. It gives them the appearance of rising out of the roof rather tha Then being a part of it.
A simple square knot with a piece of 3/8″ Taffeta Ribbon ties things up nicely. A simple sentiment and it’s ready to go!
Stampin’ UP! is so much more than just great, high quality rubber stamps! Their full line of accessories, elements and decorative themed suites can take you from the simplest hand made one-of-a-kind card to a fabulous inspirational creation. I would love the opportunity to help you save money on your projects or perhaps to help you earn some extra cash on the side. Becoming a Stampin’ UP! Demonstrator has been one of the most amazing and rewarding experiences I’ve ever done and I would love to share that experience with you. Give me a call or drop me a note and we can get you signed up right away. Sign up here: www.katherinepritchard.stampinup.net
