Sweater Card

It is not quite sweater time in Indiana because this week the temperature's are going to be in the 80 or 90's.  It is the last day of summer, so I guess we still have a few hot summer days left.  Sue Parker gave instructions on how to make these sweater cards on Pinterest, so I wanted to make one too since I purchased the Cable Knit Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  It is thicker than the other TIEF's, so it is best to spray mist your cardstock with water before embossing so it doesn't tear. Because it is thicker than the embossing folders, when you run it through the Big Shot, you need the Big Shot Platform, a single sheet of cardstock in embossing folder and just a top Standard Cutting Pad.  For the trim, I cut strips at 1/2" wide and then used the Simply Scored Scoring Tool to score on every groove.  I attached the trim with Foam Adhesive Strips.  The buttons I used were Stampin' Up! retired Night of Navy to match my Night of Navy sweater which I attached with Glue Dots.

You Can't Catch Me, I'm the Gingerbread Man

Just made this fun spinner card last night using the Sliding Star Framelit with the new Cookie Cutter Christmas set from the 2016 Holiday Catalog.   It made me thing of the Gingerbread Man story "You Can't Catch Me, I'm the Gingerbread Man."   The base of my card is Real Red and the paper is Candy Cane Lane DSP which has lots of  "visions of sugarplums" on it with colors of Crumb Cake, Real Red, Early Espresso and Whisper White. He is attached to two pennies with a rounded Dimensional between them and one on top to attach the punched out Gingerbread man that was stamped on Crumb Cake with Early Espresso.   The Cookie Cutter Builder Punch makes it so easy to make tons of Gingerbread men and any of the other four stamps that come with this set.   I'm having so much fun making these spinner cards.

Spinner Bee


Yesterday, I taught my club members how to make this spinner bee card.  The base of my card is Basic Black and layered with Daffodil Delight.  The stamps are from the stamp set Shooting Star which coordinates with the Sliding Star Framelits.  I colored the small bees in with a Basic Black marker and the large bee is Basic Black and Daffodil Delight with a touch of Clear Wink of Stella.
I showed them how to use a Dimensional between two pennies by trimming the points of the Dimensionals with scissors to make it more round for easier spinning.  I used the Foam Adhesive Strips on the back side of the Daffodil Delight but not too close to the edge of the circles to allow the pennies to circle around without getting stuck.

Seaside Shore Spinner


This is another spinner card that I made with the Sliding Star Framelits, but this time, I used the Seaside Shore stamp set.  I think you could use just about any stamp set to use with the Sliding Star Framelits.  I stamped the fish with Calypso Coral and also used the Soft Sky marker.  Using two pennies with a rounded Dimensional inserted into the circle so that the fish can swim around.  I stamped the verse "Hoping your Day Goes Swimmingly" in the center.  I layered the By the Shore DSP to the Calypso Coral and used the new Foam Adhesive strips to attach to the front of my Soft Sky card.
