Audrey's Rainbow

My daughter was watching the live stream of Stampin' Up! Convention last night and was inspired to create the above card...designed by her, all on her own!  She watercolored the rainbow on our new Whisper White Thick cardstock using an Aquapainter and ink from Stampin' Write Markers (she scribbled each marker onto a plastic container lid and picked up each color to make the "paint" for the rainbow watercolor wash).

We're busy creating cards using the Ronald McDonald House Charities Sprinkles of Life stamp set for our upcoming Stamp Camp fundraiser in August.  Contact me if you're interested in attending!

Club Cards


 I am behind in posting our Club Cards!!  Love the simplicity of this first one!  The "swoosh" comes from the Work of Art set and the greeting is from one of this year's Sale-a-Bration sets (switch out a greeting of your choice).






Our next card uses this year's Sale-a-Bration DSP and coordinating stamp set.  To make using current products: choose your favorite DSP and coordinating ribbon and buttons, find a small greeting which would fit into the circle punch, and use this as a card to CASE (copy and share everything).

Motley Monsters out on Halloween Street!

images copyright Stampin' Up! 2014
I know it's missing photos, but I just couldn't wait to post my Scrapbook Club's October two-page spread celebrating Halloween!  Using the Motley Monsters DSP again...one of my favorites!  Below you'll see some close-ups of each page.  I cut out images from the DSP and layered them on top of the same image on the 3x4 DSP portion part of the spread.  This idea could even fit into a Project Life page.
Can you see the cute grass I made with the Fringe Scissors?  And I just love the little banners!  The Boo to You on the tombstone came from the Good Greetings stamp set which you can get for free just until the end of this month.
Do you see how I layered the cut out images over the same image?  I actually cut my 3x4 DSP piece by accident and had to figure out how to salvage my layout (since I ran out of this cute DSP because I used it for so my club/workshop projects and more).
What do you think about this cool idea for the moon?  I saw another Stampin' Up! Demonstrator use the Gorgeous Grunge stamps to create the "man in the moon" and thought it would be great for a Halloween scrapbook spread.  Here are the supplies used:
