May Tour de Freaks

May 19, 2014 By Connie | 14 Comments

freakwelcome2013

Woohoo!!!  New products in the house!!!  Well, I’ve actually had Work of Art in my studio since the catalog reveal.  But, my preorder DID come in today!  I have lots of new toys to play with!  First…you’ve probably come from the blog of Heidi Boos…aren’t her projects fun?  We have 12 stops on the tour this month, so make sure to continue along the tour until you get back here!  Our theme this month is products using the Preorder Items demos could purchase this month!

 

For my Tour projects, I made 3 different cards using the Work of Art stamp set!  Here’s the first one.  I made 25 of these for the Stampin’ Up! Cruise Swap!  I was happy with the color combination of Crisp Cantaloupe, Crumb Cake and Basic Black!

Here’s the second one I made for the tour.  This one I used Watercolor Paper for the background and did the rainbow of colors with the long swash image in Work of Art stamp set.  Colors were Island Indigo, Coastal Cabana, Soft Sky, Daffodil Delight and Pear Pizzazz.  I added some punched Petite Flowers of Daffodil Delight with Gold Sequin Centers.  Hooray for Today is from Geometrical stamp set.

Next I decided to use the Work of Art stamp set to make a sun!  After it was finished, I noticed that it would make a great Sunflower with a brown center instead of the yellow!  I’ll have to try that next!  I did use the new Hello Honey Ink for my sun, stamping off to get the lighter colors.  The 1 3/4″ circle is punched from new Lullaby Designer Paper!  I added a little white designer button and White Bakers Twine.

OK…what do you think?  Hope you like them all!  Next stop of the tour is Judy DiScipio.  I know you’ll love her fabulous projects, too!  Thanks for stopping by!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 20 years and will have my 19th 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!

    Love what you did with the Work of Art set, Connie! You are so creative with the different flowers and such you have come up with for this set. My favorite is the middle watercolor project. That is so yummy!

The NEW Annual Catalog is here and we are SO excited with all the FUN new things it offers!  Nothing can make you smile more than seeing a garden full of colorful pansies, so for our first Collection we just couldn’t resist the gorgeous Pansy Patch Bundle.  We know you’ll love the embossed Pansy Dies that enhance the detailed Pansy Patch stamp set.  Plus, it has some beautiful font greetings!  We’ve used PANSY PATCH BUNDLE with the PANSY PETALS DESIGNER PAPER for a colorful Collection with four card ideas and two gift packaging ideas!  See more details HERE!

While we anxiously wait for the new Annual Catalog, do you want a perfect QUICK & EASY Product Class idea that features a couple retiring items?  Or, do you often need a little gift box in a hurry?  Have your customers (or you!) purchase the Perfect Parcel Dies (clearance for $14) and Flowers for Every Season Designer Paper (clearance for $6.90).  You’ll get four different box ideas (two are uniquely altered!) using this colorful and seasonal Collection and will have a TON of designer paper left to make more!  See more details HERE!

We think our Sweet Strawberry Collection is one of our “sweetest” ones yet!  BUT…it isn’t JUST for strawberries…you’ll love one of our “unusual” ideas for the punch!  We’ve used Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and Strawberry Builder Punch, along with Snail Mail Designer Paper in this bright and fun-filled Collection with three card ideas (one a unique fun fold!) and a different type of box that holds a LOT!  See more details HERE!
