The last of the card uploads

 Ok, I'm finally caught up taking pictures of the cards I've made, and uploading them to either here or Splitcoaststampers! Sometimes I wonder why I do this--but even if no one is watching, I can still go back and see what I've created.

The ivy is actually a stencil--I've only tried this a couple of times bur really like it. The Happy Birthday die never fails me--the DSP used for the Happy Birthday was really one piece. The Best birthday is actually made with a paper gift bag--just cut it apart, and the green Christmas card was another one of Dawn Olchefske's inspirations.

Happy stamping!

Cards from my upline

 I've been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator twice now--the first time from 2002-2012, just 2 months shy of 10 years. The second time I signed up under Dawn Olchefske (DOstamping) just after the first of the year in 2021--so I have been in 5 years again.

Dawn has monthly "bingo" cards to complete, to get us to be creative--25 suggested card ideas each month. I love the creativity that our group has! When you complete a bingo card, Dawn will send you either a pack of accessories, paper pack, or card ideas to finish. Below are a number of those card ideas, as well as some of the cards I have received from Dawn--thank you, birthday etc. Thanks Dawn!

Happy stamping!

A couple more cards...

Most of the cards that I make with Stampin' Up! products I upload to Splitcoaststampers.com. Here are a couple more non-SU! cards. The birdies are from Temu, the "bloom" card is made with an Echo Park 6x6 paper pack.

Happy stamping!

All one color

 Sometimes simple is better. This card is made with a musical score embossing folder, two circle dies, and a couple of punches, all in SU! pebbled path.

Happy stamping!

Shabby Chic

 This is more Temu paper...I believe all of these cards were made with different Stampin' Up! color cardstock--they seem to really pick up the colors of the paper. Quick cards for any reason--you pick the sayings!

Happy stamping!

3 more temu cards

 I am not 100% sold on temu yet--a couple of the stamp sets I have purchased don't seem to stamp evenly; however, for the price, I'm willing to try. The blue birthday card is a layout by Dawn Olchefske. The Christmas card is literally fussy cut temu scrapbook paper layered on SU! DSP.

Happy stamping!

Junk Journal Turned Card

 A couple of years ago I went to a meeting at the public library to learn how to make junk journals. Although I did not start that rabbit hole, we had all brought a baggie of related items to make a page in hte junk journal. I turned this baggie into a card. The person that put the pieces together had a good eye!

Happy Stamping!
