Fall Theme Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stamp It Groups Fall Theme Blog Hop. Whether you started with my blog or "hopped" over from one of my teammate’s blogs, I am happy you stopped by!

Whenever I think of fall my thoughts go to fond memories of school, especially all the excitement that surrounds back to school. So, when I found out the theme for this months blog hop was fall I knew exactly what I had to do...something Back to School!

I can't think of a better way to start the school year off right than by presenting the teacher with a "welcome to the new school year" gift.

This was such a fun project to make and basically pretty easy to make. The base is made from a 12" x 12" sheet of Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper, cut to 7" x 12". The front panel is layered with Lemon Lime Twist, Pool Party and Basic Black cardstock.

The pocket on the left inside flap will hold small note cards and is made using Lemon Lime Twist cardstock. The calendar was downloaded from a calendar website, using "mini calendar" for the search, cut to size, stapled together and adhered to the Lemon Lime Twist pocket.

The notepad is a 4"x 6" Post-it notepad that has been adhered to the card base. The flap on the right hand side is held securely closed by a 3/8" neodymium magnet placed between the "chalk board" and the Pool Party panel on the left card front and a 3/8" neodymium magnet placed underneath the stack of books on the right hand side.

Christmas in July Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stamp It Groups Christmas in July Blog Hop. Whether you started with my blog or "hopped" over from one of my teammate’s blogs, I am happy you stopped by!

Oh my gosh, this was such a fun card to make!! I started out thinking I would just make the front door with a wreath and maybe a bush and call it good. But after I started messing with the At Home coordinating framelits dies, I couldn't stop adding things to the card. There was even a framelit to make a window in the door. Love it!!

Using the coordinating framelits dies really made this card easy. I decided since I could make the door open, I really needed to add a Christmas tree. The tree is from the Lovely as a Tree stamp set and is stamped in the newly released Tranquil Tide ink. I added a Gold Metallic Enamel Star on the top of the tree. The Real Red "ornaments" are the smaller rounds from the Brights Enamel Shapes.
All of the die cuts are from the At Home with You stamp set and were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Whisper White cardstock, cut out with the At Home framelits dies and then colored with Stampin' Write markers.

To make the bricks for the house siding, I used the Brick Pattern Party Mask along with Embossing Paste, both are new products with Stampin' Up! The Embossing Paste is so easy to use, I placed a small amount of paste onto my silicone sheet, added a drop of Smoky Slate re-inker and mixed it together. Next, I smoothed it onto the mask, which I had secured in place over the Whisper White front panel, using one of the new Palette knives. Once the paste was all smoothed on, I removed the mask and let it dry for a few minutes. To make the "porch", I used a small piece of Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack. The Merry Christmas doormat was made with Crumb Cake cardstock. The presents around the bottom of the tree were stamped on to Whisper White cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink and the At Home with You stamp set. I then cut out the presents using the coordinating At Home framelits die and colored them using Stampin' Write markers.

Congratulations Mary Coe!
