And Many Mower

April 2, 2009 By Connie | Leave a Comment

I think everyone has received their Control Freaks swaps. This was my card! I used the set from the new Occasions Mini, called And Many Mower! I loved this little checklist…in fact it was one of main reasons I purchased this set. When I was growing up, we knew better than to touch dad’s TV remote control! Although, I never really remember my dad relaxing…he is always on the go!

I started with a base card of Baja Breeze, then used the Texturz Kit #4 plate for the Really Rust layer (first I stamped and colored Relax with a Versa-marker). I added a strip of the new Walk in the Park designer paper. Then made a tag from Baja Breeze, rounding the corners and adding a Jumbo Eyelet and Baja Breeze striped ribbon. Finally, I stamped the checklist in Basic Black on Whisper White and colored in with Really Rust marker (sorry, the flash made a light spot in my image…there really isn’t any fading in the center!) I think this would make a great man’s card…for either birthday or Father’s Day!

Hope you have a great day…I’m headed out of town to do a make-up Punch Class from when I was sick last week. Looking forward to seeing my friends up there! They will be excited to see the new cards from this swap!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 18 years and had my 17 year Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Lewis Center, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!

We created a new Gifts of Good Taste Collection with SIX packaging ideas along with our favorite (and easy!) holiday cookie and candy recipes! It is so nice to give special hand-made little gifts to co-workers, neighbors, your mailperson and UPS drivers! We’ve used a variety of Holiday Catalog Stamp Set and Dies for our decorating ideas, but you could mix the packaging up with the stamps and dies you already own…the recipe and package design is what is most important! This Gifts of Good Taste Collection has step-by-step picture tutorials featuring SIX gift packaging ideas using Stampin’ Up! products with corresponding recipes you can quickly make up and give away!
