Sketch Challange , anyone?!

A couple of days ago, I challenged my downline girls to follow a sketch that I found on Pinterest.

Here is the layout:

I told them that the stars could be anything…and the diagonal stripes anything from ribbon, DSP or CS strips to washi tape.

Here is a quick look at the cards:

Amazing – how different all the cards are! Gret Job, girls!!!!   So of course I couldn’t let the challenge pass by without making a card myself!

Here is what I came up with:

I have to admit, back when we started to add Washi Tape to our products, I wasn’t so sure that I would like it…. BUT now I LOVE it! Especially this one!

Faux Washi Tape Technique

Yesterday I had my last session of Technique Class for this month and for the first time, we tried it on a Saturday morning instead of Sunday afternoon… and it was very well received! So I am going to do that again next month…

Before I show you the full cards with supply list, I also wanted to show you the card I made while the ladies worked on theirs. I had the question come up, that since we are using the low tack painters tape… if the Stampin’ Up! WASHI TAPE could work too… AND I am happy to report – YES, it does work wonderfully! Still keep in mind to use shimmery white or glossy white Cardstock (or photo paper) only to prevent tearing. Remember, I had a quick  verbal how to posted earlier, here. This is my new card:

Close up for the stripes:

You can see, I used different widths! I love that now we even have more options!

And I also wanted to show off how much fun the ladies had stamping, they couldn’t stop… and went on to decorate their envelopes too!

They simply re-used the sticky painter tape strips and used the ink that was still on there and transferred it over to their envies Way to go, girls!

Stamp Club Thank You’s

I am home from convention and have to tell you, I had a wonderful time! Made a new friend, ran into friends from other events, learnt new things, laughed a lot and came home with a LOT of gifts from Stampin’ Up! I love my job!

Today I want to share with you my little thank you cards that I’ve included with this month’s stamp club orders…

Well, I have 2 versions. Here is the original:

I worked on those cards the day before I left for convention, so I had lots of things on my mind and when I started to cut some more Coastal Cabana Cardstock for the next batch, I didn’t make the correct cut or rotated it the wrong way, LOL. I did NOT start over, just made a light design adjustment:

And you know what… I think I like this version better now! Isn’t that funny how sometimes those mishaps work out even better?!
