Hippest Hippos; lots of creative ideas for you!

Today I'm sharing some wonderful swap cards I received from other talented Demonstrators – all featuring the Hippest Hippos stamp set & Hippo dies.  They're both free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order during July & August. 

Hippo set & dies Save

But remember these Sale-a-Bration items are only available while supplies last.  Already they are out of TWO choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  The Rings of Love 12" DSP and the Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes.  So if you have something from the SAB catalog on your wish list; get it soon!  

 

Hippos Amanda Save

What an amazing scene Amanda created here!  So many details!  I especially appreciate that she colored her hippo in Pool Party; who says they have to be gray?

Her background is made with the Rays of Light stamp seen here.  The rest is all Sale-a-Bration items.  Her colors include Pool Party, White, Crumb Cake & Crushed Curry

She stamped the greeting from Amazing Phrases and fussy cut it, placing it between 'waves'. She added Wink of Stella to her water.  The little splashes of water & the life preserver truly make this scene complete!

One of my favorites was made by Gwen.  The way she added ribbon for a 'towel' on the silver/metal tub is genius!!

Hippos Kelly Save

Kelly created a cute scene mostly with the Hippo dies.  Her colors are Smoky Slate, Real Red & Balmy Blue.  The little water splash die-cuts add motion to the scene!

Mary, one of my Flowerbug team members, made this cute card for her Card Club this month. She used a blending Brush with Flirty Flamingo ink for a soft background.  The lights and bow at the top are from the Tree Lot dies in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  See them here.

Hippos Amy Save

This cute card was made by Amy Storrie.  I love the sunglasses!  The other neat thing she did was to use the Hippo dies along with the Stitched Circle in the Beautiful Shapes dies so they match up perfectly!  Her Designer Paper is the Cottage Gingham in the Holiday catalog.  

You can see the Hippest Hippos stamp set here and the Hippo dies here.  Get them both free with a $100 online order and you'll also receive my free July cards kit!  Offer good through Saturday, July 30th.

    I have two more fabulous swap cards to share with you from our September Team swaps.  My Flowerbug's are so talented and creative. 

    Paula made a Waterfall card!  These are not difficult but a bit intimidating maybe….  I shared a FB Live video here on how to make one.  

    She featured the Scary Cute bundle seen here as well as the Black & White designs DSP here.  The colors are Black, White & Gorgeous Grape.  

    Sept Paula Scary Cute . Save

    She also used the Blossoming Happiness dies for her bottom border so she'd have a spot to add the Orchid Oasis 1/8" metallic ribbon for the pull.  

    Sept Paula SC Save

    Measurements: 

    • Black card 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • Basic Gray strip 5 1/2" X 1 1/4", waterfall strip is 2 1/2" X 10" scored at 5 1/4", 6", 6 3/4" & 7 1/2"
    • Gorgeous Grape squares are 2 1/2"
    • White squares are 2 1/4"
    • DSP is 4" X 5 1/4"

    Here's a peak of the last inside panel with the die-cut & spooky scene.  She stamped the greeting on the long inside strip.

    Next is a colorful Halloween card made by Sharon using this same bundle.  She also added stamps from the Best Witches & Bewitching stamp sets.

    My Flowerbug's Team amazes me with their incredible card swaps; each and every month their cards are super fabulous!  I shouldn't be surprised at this point!  

    Our September Team card swap featured Halloween or Fall cards and I'll be featuring them for the next several days.  

    Annette made this first card with the Best Witches stamp set seen here.  Look at her amazing coloring!

    Sept Annette Best Witches Save

    The colors include Highland Heather, Black & a bit of Granny Apple Green on the frog.  She used Blends markers for her coloring.  Love that face!

    The designer is our Black & White Designs from the Holiday catalog.  The circles are from the Layering Circles dies. 

    It's also a fun fold 'latch' card!  Here's the inside view: 

    Sept Annette Best Witches Save

    Measurements:

    • Highland Heather: Card base 6 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  Side flap is3 1/2" square
    • Black: 2 3/4" X 3 1/4" & 2" X 5 1/4"
    • DSP: 1 3/4" X 5"
    • White: front is 2 1/2" X 3", inside is 4" X 5 1/4"

    In the photo below you can see how the right panel is 'latched' with the layered circle greeting to keep it closed.

    Next is a super cute card made by Candace with the Bewitching punch bundle seen here.  Unfortunately the punch is unavailable right now but it will be back!  I just love her playful circles layout! 

    Sept Candace Bewitching Save

    She used Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie, Black & Granny Apple Green.  She cut off the front flap with the Border Basics dies and added a strip of Gorgeous Grape with the same die-cut edge.  

    The way she added the boots to be under the hat with this fold is genius!  


    Sept Candace Bewitching Save

    Measurements:

    • Grape card base 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" plus a 3/4" X 5 1/2" strip for the zigzag die-cut border 
    • White is 5 1/4" X 7" scored at 4 1/8"
    • Circles are all die-cuts from the Stylish Shapes dies!  


    Sept Candace Bewitching Save

    Don't you agree that these cards are amazing!?  I'm so proud to share the creativity of my Flowerbug's Team!  More to come tomorrow!

    I shared this cute & easy box on Tuesday's FB Live.  It's quite simple to make and fits a bunch of treats too!  

    Spooky Treats box Save

    I decided to feature this month's Paper Pumpkin kit I just received.  It's called Spooky Treats.  I used the ghost and greeting images from the stamp set plus the greeting element and the bats paper from the kit.  I chose the Black & White designs paper for the designer paper.

    The finished box measures 3" X 5" in size.

    Here are the measurements: 

    • Box card stock 7” X 9” – Score at 1” on all sides.
    • Place CS with long side at the top, score at 4” & 5”
    • DSP – sides 2 at ¾” X 2 ¾”, front & back 2 at ¾” X 4 ¾”. Top is 2 ¾” X 4 ¾”

    For the second box I chose to use Gorgeous Grape for my box instead of Pumpkin Pie.  The designer paper is also the Black & White designs.
