Stamping With Judy

HOLIDAY GIFT CARD CLASS

Can you believe it -- this will be our last class for this year.  We offer this class in time to provide a beautiful way to wrap your holiday gift cards and/or money.  We all know how much Gift Cards are appreciated -- our family even requests them.  But how do you wrap it to show how much you care?  This class solves that dilema! 

We have a gift card holder for everyone, adults and kids alike.  Don't miss out -- register early and bring a friend!  I used our favorite "Loads of Love" Pickup Truck on the fourth sample at the request of a couple of my friends.  Can you see the snow on the truck?  That is done with a product called "Liquid Applique".  A litte note here -- the insides are just as cute as the outsides.  You know I would not let you down!

DATES:  FRIDAY, DEC. 11 at 6:00 pm, or

SUNDAY, DEC. 13 at 1:00pm

CLASS FEE:

OPTION 1:  8 Holders (2 of each) for $20.00

Now, I bet you want to know why we will have such a short month -- it is very exciting.  Our oldest Granddaughter is getting married a week before Christmas in Nashvile, Tenn.  It will be such a fun trip and we are all excited about it.  Unfortunately it means I cannot have a special class in December like we did last year with the Snowman Box and Cookie Swap.  Don't despair, there is always next year.

I will keep posting to my blog even while I am away so that you are kept up to date. 

HAPPY HOLIDAYS! 

HALLOWEEN SCRAPBOOK PAGE

Have you developed your Halloween pictures yet?  Here is a sample scrapbook page to help you with your pictures.  All kids love Trick or Treat night, and this is a fast page to assemble. 

I took this picture at night to give it a creapy look.  I used Pumpkin Pie 12" card stock, Cast a Spell Designer Series Paper and Serif Essentials Alphabet Die with my Big Shot.  Next is a close up of each page.

It is amazing how different the pages look with different lighting.   The additional embelishments -- the haunted house and cats are die cuts from a local craft store.

Feel free to copy this and to contact me with any questions you might have. 

HAPPY STAMPING!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

JUST A QUICK NOTE TO WISH YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES A HAPPY THANKSGIVING.  ENJOY THE DAY, DON'T OVER DUE THE EATING AND HAVE FUN.  WARMEST WISHES,  JUDY

NOEL

Here is another sample from the Upline Meeting I attended.  This is a beautiful holiday card using Whisper White, Garden Green and Eggplant card stock.  The tree is stamped with Garden Green and "Kicked up a Notch" with Dazzling Diamonds glitter. 

Close to Cocoa Designer Series Paper and Garden Green brads finish this sample off beautifully.  You can see that the front is half of the size of the back and opens to a space large enough for a picture and/or message.  Thanks for looking.  I will see you again tomorrow.  Do you think I will make it?  A new blog post every day in the month of November?  We'll see, I am trying hard to make it.

DID YOU KNOW I AM CERTIFIABLE!

No doubt some of you are saying "I knew that!.  I just received the official word that I am a Stampin Up My Digital Studio Certified Demonstrator.  What does that mean?  This means I can help you with any questions you have about the software and its use!  As part of the certification program, I attended webinars, completed quizzes and printed product with the software.  (In fact, I just received the album I  created using the Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin' Kit that is included the program.  I am giving this professional album to my granddaughter who is getting married a week before Christmas, along with a Simply Scrappin' Kit for them to add popped up embelishments, etc.  The cool thing is everything is printed true to size, so the stickers in the kit match the printed album.  Then all they need to do is add their pictures of their first Christmas together as a married couple and they will have a beautiful unique album.  What a fantastic memory this will be for them. 

If you're interested in finding out more about this great software simple give me a call.  Don't forget that hostesses can purchase the My Digital Studio software for 50% off with workshop sales over $525 (all the more reason to have a BIG stamping party!!).

DELIGHTFUL DECORATIONS CHRISTMAS

I don't know about you, but I think the most popular stamp set in our fabulous Holiday Mini Catalog is the Delightful Decorations set.  A big reason for the popularity is the matching punch.  You can mass produce dozens of holiday cards without hand cutting anything.  That is such a big time saver.  Shown here is a sample I received at an upline meeting.  The "decorations" were stamped with our Platinum Shimmer Paint (also found in the Holiday Mini Catalog), punched and adhered to the beautiful card with Dimensionals.  The snowflakes and greeting were also stamped with the Platinum Shimmer Paint. 

The front edge of the card was punched with our Eyelet Border Punch. I am sorry I do not have the name of the person who created this sample.  Feel free to leave a comment -- I love to hear from you. 

 

MY DIGITAL STUDIO SAMPLE

This sample is a card I ordered from My Digital Studio to see what they look like in person.  It is really very nice the way it comes, but I wanted to add my own personal touch to it.  I added a piece of Certainly Celery 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon and a Vanilla Ribbon Slider.  That was all, and it is a beautiful birthday card.  I have learned by playing around and blog surfing that you can actually get two cards in one which will save you money.  When you finish your card, add a page and copy the first page.  Your card will come with the same grafic on the front and inside of the card.  When the card comes, you cut the card it in half, trim the two halves a little and then adhere to a coordinating color of card stock and you now have two cards for the price of one.

This sample is from the pre-designed section.  If you have any questioms about our fabulous My Digital Studio, or any of our products, please do not hesitate to contact me.  HAPPY STAMPING!

TECHNIQUE TUESDAY - ALTERED RIBBON

I simply love our ribbon, and the fact that we can alter the color to coordinate with specific projects.  Look at the result you get with the 1 1/4" Black/White Striped Grosgrain ribbon.  I used four of our Bold Brights markers to show the result you get. 

As you can see, I used Real Red, Tempting Turquoise, Pink Passion and YoYo Yellow.  The next picture is a close up of the ribbon which really shows off the colors.

The next picture is a shot of the ribbon roll.  It is the Basic Black 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain found on page 183 of the Idea Book and Catalog.

You have a choice of four colors.  Pumpkin Pie, Chocolate Chip and Old Olive in addition to the Basic Black.  Can't you picture the possibilities!  There is approximately 10 yards on each roll for only $8.95. 

HAPPY CRAFTING!
