Stampin' Up! More OSW Painterly Pears

Here's more of the One Sheet Wonder cards. I posted a batch here and I still have another batch, which I will post on Tuesday.

Now, what am I going to do with all these cards?? They'll probably be donated or sold. Perhaps I have 12 birthdays coming up this spring :-)

Thank you for stopping by today.
 

Stampin' Up! March 2016 Paper Pumpkin Kit

 Well, this creation is straight out of the box with the exception of how I used the twine. Take a look see...

In SU's instructions for the kit, the twine is wrapped around the holder and tied through the tag. I chose to save on twine because I only have 7 refills...lol!

Thanks for stopping by today! 

Stampin' Up! Prairie Grass Birthday Card

Good morning, peeps! I have an easy peasy card for you today as I am having company from Florida here for dinner so it's a busy day for me getting ready. Don't have much time in your busy day to make a card? Well, then this one is for you! Take a look see...

 

 

All you need is a card base, piece of DSP, a stamp set, ink and embellishments. I wish I could have found a speed challenge for this!

 

Here's the inside...

Stampin' Up! Boardwalk Fun Birthday for the SU Demos Fun Fold Blog Hop

Hello my stamping friends.  Welcome to our monthly Stampin' Up! Demos Fun Fold Blog Hop!! The participating demonstrators are listed at the end of my post. I hope you will choose to hop along. Here's what I created for the hop today...                                      

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hU4LLpaZ8yc to see it moving click the blue link! (Hopefully it worked!) If not, let me give you a closer stationary look...

I was inspired by Terry Gaines and Marcie Besecker. Here are the deets:

Card Base: Pretty Peacock Card Stock 8 1/2" x 4 1/4", scored at 5 1/2"  and embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D EF

 Z fold Nature Walk DSP Piece: 11 1/2" x 3", scored at 3" (M), 5 1/2" (M) and 8 1/2" (V)

I used the Boardwalk Fun Bundle to create the ferris wheel and the Soft Sea Foam Card Stock tickets. The ferris wheel uses Silver Foil and Basic White Card Stock sponged with Basic Gray ink. The buckets are Pretty Peacock and Soft Sea Foam. 

The Great Smoky Mountain Wheel is about 1 1/2 hours from me but you'll never catch me riding it. I have been afraid of ferris wheels since I was little because my father would rock the seat back and forth when we got to the top! Another time, later in life, I got brave and rode one in Florida. However, my husband and I got stuck on that one at the top so I said "never again"!! Give me a roller coaster any day.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you will hop along with the list of demos below.

Stampin' Up! More Painterly Pears OSW

Good morning, peeps. This DSP is almost gone! As much as I love it, I didn't want to hoard it...so unlike me. The first time I posted about Lynn Dunn's one sheet wonder is here. That one was a single card. 

These cards show more of the OSW created as multiples...

There's more to come but for now, thanks for stopping by and I hope you'll be back tomorrow for our SU Demos Fun Fold Blog Hop.

Stampin' Up! Pocketful of Cheer Birthday Card

Good morning, peeps! Did you enjoy the first day of spring yesterday? I did because I made this card and I feel like it is very springy! I'm keeping true to my Paper Pumpkin Kit monthly goal. This one is an alternative to the March 2016 Pocketful of Cheer kit. As I mentioned in another post, I bought lots of refills. I mistakenly said I had 4 but in counting yesterday, I have 7. What was I thinking? In any event, here's my card...

In addition to the kit contents, I used a retired Pearlized Doily cut in half. On the inside I used the retired Happiest of Birthdays stamp set.

I will be putting together 10 kits of this card for my PEO widows group in April. I don't think any of them have ever made a card before so I think I kept their first adventure quite simple. What do you think?

Here are the deets:

Card base from PP kit: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", folded at 4 1/4"

Floral self-adhesive strips from kit: 3/4" x 3 3/4"

Self-adhesive Bermuda Bay Banner from kit

Basic White Card Stock Banner: Cut 3 3/4" x 1/2" 

Striped Banner cut from belly band in kit: cut 3" x 3/4"

Stamp image from kit on square provided in kit

Adhere 2 polka dot banners from kit to back of square

Adhere strips, 1/2 doily, 3 banners to card front

Adhere square to card front using Dimensionals

Adhere 3 kit pearls to front

Inside: Adhere (2) 1/4" x 4" floral strips cut from kit envelope and stamp with retired Happiest of Birthdays Stamp Set 

Thank you for stopping by today and I appreciate any comments that you leave.
