Stampin' Up! Training - Make and Takes.

One of the great things about being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is the opportunity to meet lots of people who have exactly the same interests as you! I'm part of a Stampin' Up! team and we all meet up regularly and share ideas with one another.

Our upline Cate hosts these meetings and they're lots of fun, she even organises some make and takes for us to do! You can't have a Stampin' Up! meeting without some crafting!!

So today i'm going to show you what we made! Here's the first project:


This card uses the current 'In Colours' - the cardbase is the lovely 'Pear Pizzazz'. Next we got a piece of 'Whisper White' and stamped it using the 'dots,dots,dots' stamp. We then punched this piece of card using the '1-3/4" Circle Punch' and placed that in the centre of the card. The butterflies have been created using the 'Big Shot', scraps of 'Pear Pizzazz', 'Blushing Bride' and 'Peach Parfait' and the 'Beautiful Wings Embosslits Die'. The sentiment is from the 'Party This Way' stampset and has been stamped onto a strip of 'Whisper White' card, which i have snipped into shape. We placed a couple of 'Basic Pearls' each side of the sentiment to give the card an extra special touch!!

The second project we made was this lovely 'Milk Carton':


Created with use of the 'Big Shot' and 'Milk Carton Die', we wrapped a piece of 'DSP' from the 'Brights Collection' around it. Next we stamped the flower from the 'Vintage Vogue' set, in 'Rose Red' and the friends sentiment (from the 'Just Believe' set) in 'Old Olive' ink and then punched it out using the 'Scallop Square Punch', all finished off with a 'Basic Rhinestone'.

Two lovely projects!! Would you like to have the opportunity to meet lots of new crafty people? Would you like to make a little income that funds your crafting habit? Why not become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator?! Email me: amyjtidd@gmail.com for details on how to join my team!!
