Saturday Series: Acorny Thank You Card, Berry Basket and Treat

I wanted to share this fun little ensemble with you. I know it's Sunday and I am just getting around to posting this, it has been one of the those weeks when you turn around and say.....Where did the week go? Do you ever have those weeks? Well here are a couple of great ideas using the Acorny Thank You stamp set. I just LOVE that little set!! The little acorns are just so darn cute! They just make me happy!! So I made a Berry Basket and this card we actually made in my card class this month, and a super fun little treat!!

How fun is that??

Do you just LOVE all the texture here?? Did you notice the paper the leaf is cut out of, it's the new Corrugated Paper (it's on page 148 in the new catalog) Very cool paper!! Also if you were wondering about the Designer Series Paper, it's the Farmer's Market Paper. The polka-dots go so well with the polka-dots on the Acorn. Do you want to know whats great about this? The strips here are small enough that you could get alot of these cards out of one pack of paper.

The inside of the card....makes it fun!
Here is the card recipe:

Card base: Soft Suede cut at 4 1/4" x 11"
Whisper White (for inside and outside ) 4" x 5 1/4"
Leaf cut out of the Corrugated paper with the Leaflet Framelits
Farmer's Market Designer Paper: Polka-dot 4" x 1 1/4"; Woodgrain 4" x 1 1/2"
Daub the edges of the leaf and the woodgrain paper with Soft Suede ink
Layer the Acorn with Cherry Cobbler 2 3/8" Circle Scallop, 2" circle Soft Suede
Acorn (card front) top is stamped in Hello Honey, and the base is stamped in Cherry Cobbler
Acorn (inside card) top is stamped in Soft Suede and the base is stamped in Hello Honey
To get the little bow on top, I simply took the Burlap ribbon and tore the seam off, and then pulled a strand out, tied it in a knot and adhered it with a glue dot
The sentiment is stamped in Momento Tuxedo Black

Is that the cutest Berry Basket ever? I found these peanut M & M's at the store and I was doing the happy dance!! They match the colors perfect here!! I put some raffia in the bottom of my basket, and used a small strip of the Farmer's Market Designer Series paper again. The Basket and the strip of polka-dots were cut using the Berry Basket Die!!! Easy-peasy!! I saw a similiar basket on Ronda Wade's blog.

This little treat is too cute!! The center is a Hersey's Kiss, how fun would this be around your Thanksgiving table, or to co-workers, Sunday School class! Cute and Simple

How cute is that from the side?
Directions:

cut a strip of cardstock (I used Hello Honey) 4" x 3/4"
score at 1, 2 and 3"
fold on score lines and use Tombow glue to secure
stamp acorn and thankful, use dimensionals to pop and you're done!! (just like the Turkey!!) ha-ha!!

Have a great day, and I hope you feel inspired!!

Stampin' Up Crystal Effects and Santa Curvy Keepsake box

in 3-D, christmas, quick and simple, Tool Tuesday, by jangirlstamps, 7:23 AM

Tool Tuesday: Crystal Effects

Good Morning Everyone! Today's Tuesday Tool is the Crystal Effects Adhesive. This is a tool I have showcased before on Tool Tuesday, I just wanted to revisit how awesome this tool is! We used it in class the other day (see project below) and I was amzed how many people haven't used it before! Honestly, this is another must have for your papercrafting tool chest. You really only need to buy it once and it will last a long time!! (I have a funny story to share, one of the girls in my club accidently ordered 2 , and she called me and said , "Janet in my lifetime I will only use one, can you use another in your classes?" We won't mention any names......Barb.... ha-ha!! So my point is this is a great tool, you really will use over and over again, and it will last a LONG time!! So what's so great about Crystal Effects? With Crystal Effects, you can add a lacquered dimensional look to all of your papercraft projects. It's like magic it turns regular cardstock into a shiny, mirror like finish!!

Features & Benefits

Gives a high-gloss finish to any image

Creates amazing 3-D effects

Applicator tip provides great control

Distributed exclusively by Stampin’ Up!

Water based for quick and easy cleanup

Dries completely within an hour, depending on how thickly it is applied

2 oz.

Quick Trick

Add a drop or two of our Classic Ink refill to the Crystal Effects, and you’ll have a high-gloss colored finish.

Crystal Effects also works great as an adhesive to attach buttons and other heavier embellishments. Add a three-dimensional effect to your projects with Crystal Effects. Simply apply a thick line of Crystal Effects to the outline of your stamped image. After the line has dried, add a thinner coat of Crystal Effects to the inside area of what was outlined.

FYI

Crystal Effects can be used with any stamped image that has been colored with any medium: Watercolor Wonder Crayons, Stampin’ Write Markers, Stampin’ Pastels, Stampin’ Pads.

Do not shake. Shaking Crystal Effects will cause bubbles that will show up in your work. (ask me how I know!! )

Recap after use to prevent the tip from drying and clogging. If you have had yours awhile I will put a toothpick in the top to get it to flow again.

Allow approximately 20-30 min.

For best results, they recommend using Crystal Effects within one year of purchase. In my experience it truly lasts a very long time!

Here's the project we used it on, it made the buttons just pop on here!!

Can you see how the buttons just shine??

I thought this turned out cute, like Santa's big 'ole belly!! :)

How fun it this for a cute stocking stuffer?

So if you are need crystal effects for yourself, or maybe a great stocking stuffer idea, this is a great tool!!

Crystal Effects	101055
Price: $6.25

Create a glossy, lacquered look over images, paper, anything. Also works great as an adhesive. 2 oz. bottle; acid free.

Stampin' Up Turkey Curvy Keepsake box

in 3-D, Fall, Tool Tuesday, treats, by jangirlstamps, 4:44 PM

Tool Tuesday (Gone Wednesday!!) Curvy Keepsake box

I had a little faux pas and meant to post this yesterday! So Tool Tuesday went to wild wednesday... ha-ha!! I have been having a good time with the Curvy Keepsakes box, so I decided to highlight it in Tool Tuesday. This little tool in the holiday catalog is a keeper! If you don't believe me check Pinterest...these are HOT!! So I made this little Turkey, he is such a little cutie!!

I wanted to highlight this tool because it is EASY to make and very VERSATILE and in my book that makes a great tool!!

He's pretty cute, right?

I kinda played with the feathers a little, goodness knows...he's got some!! I cut the feathers out of Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, Soft Suede. I put the smaller feathers in the front and the larger feathers in the back, and secured them on 1 1/4" scalloped circle. I put a scalloped circle in the back to, just to give him a finished look.

Now that's some tail feathers....ha-ha!!

Here's a side view. I think this would be so cute as a gift for a neighbor, teacher, church friend or just sitting around your Thanksgiving table!!

Here's the details:

Feathers: used the feather die and cut 2 small and 2 large feathers out of Soft Suede, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry. I adhered them to a 1 14/" scallop circle and put another scallop circle on the back side.
Eyes: I used tie Owl Punch for the eye and pupil
Beak: I used the Triangle Punch and just cut it smaller, and used the small heart punch to make the gobbler
Front Feathers: I used the 1 1/4" scallop punch and cut it into 2 wedges (one a scallop larger)

Here's a video from Stampin' Up on how to put the Curvy Keepsake together:

Items used:
Stamps: Good Greetings
Paper: Soft Suede cardstock, Crushed Curry cardstock, Real Red cardstock, Whisper White cardstock, Pumpkin Pie cardstock

Stampin' Up Graduation Diploma favor

in 3-D, graduation, party favor, by jangirlstamps, 5:13 PM

I wanted to share these super cute graduation party favors I made for my son's graduation party. I think they are so stinky cute! I basically just wrapped a Mentos candy, I had thought first Rolo's, but with the Texas heat that might be a little messy! :)

I used the Cherry Cobbler Blendabilties on the hat! I did the center with the lightest hue in the Cherry Cobbler then the darker color, using the very darkest for the edge.

I think these will be so cute on the table! Super easy, even better!

The details:

Whisper White 5 1/2" x 3"
Stamp congratulations (from Sassy Salutations) using Staz on ink
put Snail on 5 1/2" side , and roll Mentos candy
use glue dot to hold hat (from Pure Gumption-retired), tie Silver Foil ribbon

Have a great day!

Stampin' Up Pure Gumption Graduation Treat

in 3-D, graduation, by jangirlstamps, 5:12 PM

Graduation Treat Pouch

Here is a treat holder perfect for Graduation Parties!! I used Stampin' Up's medium cello bags and put red M & M's in the bag. I think this would be so cute on a table as a party favor.

I just love the Pure Gumption set.

Here's how I made it:

1. Cut Real Red Cardstock 2 1/2" x 7 3/4"

2. Score at 2 3/4", 4", and 6 3/4"

3. Cut "2013" using the Typeset alphabet Bigz

4. Using the 1 3/8" Square Punch, cut Basic Black

5. Make Tassel using White Bakers Twine

6. Secure tassel with Glimmer Brad

7. Using Medium Cello bags, fill with desired candy

8.. Use 2-Way Glue on front flap *** see tip below**

2-Way glue Tip:

Stampin' Up's 2-way glue can be used 2 ways (haa-haa) but really I think sometimes we forget.

So the first way is permanent: use while the glue is blue. If you want it to be repositional: then apply like normal, let it completely dry then adhere to object and it becomes sticky (but repositional) like a post-it note. Kinda Cool!! So that's what I did on the flap, applied the 2-way glue, let it dry, then secured, now I can open and close the flap easily.

Happy Stamping!!

Janet
