Retro Circles layout with a quick video. So unique & versatile!

I hope you had a nice Christmas weekend!  We sure did.  It's one of my favorite times of the year; one time where all of my kids are home and we're all together. 

Here's another card we made at my December card clubs.  It was such a hit on Facebook Live Stamp with Me that I had to do it at Club too.  It's a great way to show off your designer paper with this retro style.  Scroll down to see the video.

You just need three circles of different sizes.  I used the Stitched Shapes dies so they have the extra detail of stitches on the edges.  I use these dies so much!  If you don't have them I highly recommend them. See them here. 

I used the Brightly Gleaming specialty DSP here and instead of the copper foiled side I used the other side which has Navy, Mossy Meadow & Island Indigo.

The stamped images are from the Itty Bitty Birthday & Lots to Celebrate stamp sets.  Just one ink color; Night of Navy. 

Below are the cards we made on one of my Monday night Stamp with Me FB lives.  See that video here.

  Did you know that 2023 is the year of the rabbit? The sign of Rabbit is a symbol of longevity, peace, and prosperity in Chinese culture. 2023 is predicted to be a year of hope.

  Look at this gorgeous card my team member Ginny made for a friend of hers:

• Awesome Sale-a-Bration Team card swap samples

  January 25, 2023

  ---

  We held our monthly Team swap and meeting this weekend.  As usual my gals created fabulous cards to share with each other.  

  First is a rainbow of carrots card made by Karen.  She used the Thanks a Bunch stamp set.  It's a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion; yours with any $50 purchase of Stampin' Up! products. 

  Save

  Rainbow carrots are one of the fun food trends right now; she did it proud!  She used the Stamparatus to stamp her carrots, repositioning the card stock on her mat each time so the two step stamps lined up perfectly.  Genius!  I plan to share her technique soon.  

  She used the new Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here, new Pastel Adhesive-Backed sequins, the Deckled Rectangle dies and the new Happy Labels Pick a Punch for her greeting. 

  ~~~

  Ginny made this pretty card with the Beautifully Happy stamp set; also from Sale-a-Bration. 

  Save

  It's a beautiful 2-step stamp set that is also distinktive; which means it gives two tones of ink on one stamping.  My favorite types of stamp hands down! 

  Her colors are Fresh Freesia, Old Olive and Black. She added that soft layer of Vellum too!

  Measurements are: 

  Card base 4 1/4" X 11", White – 3" X 4 1/8", Black 3 1/8" X 4 1/4" and Vellum is 3 5/8" X 4 3/4" 

  ~~~

  Jane brought this cute card to share and I had to show you.  She used the Adorable Owls stamp set; another Sale-a-Bration choice that's free with a $50 purchase from now through February 28th. *see everything free here

  Can you see what is so unique about it?  
  

  Save

  The Owl tag is loose and can be removed from the card front.  It is caught on the horizontal greeting banner that is only anchored at the outer edges.  I love this idea!  You could add a bookmark in the same way.  

  Her colors are Calypso Coral with Fresh Freesia.

• Desert Details WOW card

  January 24, 2023

  ---

  I spent time playing with the Delicate Desert suite and this is what I came up with: 

  Save

  I LOVE how it turned out!  I really wanted to use the Dry Brushed specialty paper along with the Desert Details bundle seen here.  The dies in it are so cool! 

  Save

  The two large rectangles and dies for the stamped flowers are just a few of the dies included.  

  Save

  My colors include Petal Pink & Soft Succulent. I cut two of the open leaf dies from the center of the Dry Brushed large shape, leaving the outer frame intact. No one but me knows there are empty spaces under the White layer! 

  You can see the Dry Brushed metallic specialty paper here.  It's simply stunning!  

  Save

  There are two of each sheet in this package of 12" metallic paper for $8. 

  Save

  I added a few of the Gold Faceted Adhesive-Backed sequins on this card too.  They're also part of the Delicate Desert suite seen here.  

  Save

  I hope you enjoyed this project; it came together so easily.
