Who's Your Hero?


September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month.  Help me raise money for this cause!  Purchase the Ronald McDonald House Charities My Hero stamp set or any gold accessories this week and I will donate 20% of those sales to a local organization, GiveBonnieStrong77, which helps families dealing with childhood cancer.  Use Hostess Code: HRRD2J2W when you checkout.

Featured above are "Bucket Notes"...little notes sized 2 3/4" x 4"...you can make 4 of these little notes from one sheet of card stock.  They're great for co-workers or teachers!  Leave them on their desk or in their mailbox for a pick-me-up.  They're also great for kids' lunchboxes too!

This bucket note above also uses the stamp set Timeless Textures.  It adds just a bit of texture that the card needed.  Dapper Denim is a beautiful deep blue!
Sweet Sugarplum is the most popular ink pad these days at Stampin' Up!  Love how this little valentine turned out with the help of some accessories from the new Holiday Catalog: Fancy Frost Sequins and Glitter Ribbon Combo Pack.

Check back this week to see more samples with this fun My Hero stamp set!  If you look closely in the photos above you can get a sneak peek!

A little Valentine note

Gotta love little notes!  This one measures 2 3/4" x 4"....you can get four little notes out of one sheet of card stock.  Slice off a 1/2" from the short side of CS (the 8 1/2" side) and then cut the four card bases along the 11" side at 2 3/4" ...you'll get exactly four!  Save the 1/2" strip for the greeting banner as shown above.

We made this card at my last Stamp Camp.  We used a watercolor wash with the emboss resist technique: emboss the hearts and then apply the ink with an Aquapainter or watercolor brush, the hearts will "resist" the color.

This card was inspired by my friend Marisa's beautiful creations here: Dzines by MEG  She's one of Stampin' Up!'s  Artisan Award winners (for the second time!).
