Global Stamping Friends Extraordinary Hop - Occasions Catalog & Sale-a-Bration

Welcome to the January 2019 EXTRAORDINARY Edition of the Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop, featuring products from the NEW 2019 Occasions Catalog, and 2019 Sale-a-Bration Brochure! You'll see projects from stampers from around the world--I'm in Colorado Springs, Colorado. (Note: I can only sell to customers in the US, so any prices are in USD)

We generally hop the first Friday of each month, but this is an extra hop! For this hop I'm sharing one card, done 3 ways, featuring products from the All My Love Suite of products from the Occasions Catalog.

I'll break the cards down for you...the first one below uses the most supplies, including the coordinating Designer Series Paper, coordinating dies, coordinating ribbon, some sequins, an epoxy heart (colored with Stampin' Blends), and the Triple Banner Punch.

The second one below actually removes the coordinating dies and instead uses a the Decorative Label punch for the greeting, in addition to the Triple Banner Punch. You'll also notice the little epoxy heart was colored with Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blends.

The third card below is what we call #simplestamping, with just stamps, ink, and paper. However, in our featured #simplestamping this month, we are adding the use of a punch. I just used the Triple Banner Punch on the Designer Series Paper, but you could easily create that little notch with your Paper Snips.

Stampin' Supplies: Whisper White Notecards & Envelopes, Flirty Flamingo Cardstock & ink pad, Whisper White Cardstock, Lovely Lipstick Cardstock & ink pad, VersaMark ink pad, All My Love Designer Series Paper, All My Love Ribbon Combo Pack, Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies (used with the Big Shot), Tear & Tape Adhesive, SNAIL Adhesive, Mini Glue Dots, Paper Trimmer (for cutting & scoring, Simply Shammy (for cleaning stamps).
(see Product Purchase Links below the Blog Roll - - coming soon!)

Color Combo Blog Hop - January 2019

Products listed in bold are available in My Online Store, please see the bottom of the post for a complete list of Product Purchase Links under the Blog Roll.
DISCLAIMER: this is an International blog hop...I am in the United States, and I can only do business with those in my country, or those who have an APO/FPO address for shipping. So sorry for any inconvenience!

For my project this month, I chose the NEW Humming Along stamp set. I stamped the hummingbird in StazOn Jet Black ink onto Watercolor Paper, and colored with ink refills, using an Aqua Painter. I'm by no means talented with watercolor, but I'm happy with how this turned out. I used the Gorgeous Grape and Coastal Cabana for the hummingbird body, and the Gorgeous Grape again to stamp the greeting, and also to stamp the flower in the background of the card base. The Cajun Craze was only used on the hummingbird's beak.

I added some sheen to the hummingbird once I was all finished playing around, using the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. I tried to catch it at an angle above, and I hope you can see it, because my camera battery died on me! I cut a teeny slit along the fold of the card to loop the Gorgeous Grape 1/4" Mini Striped Ribbon through, and tied it in a bow.

Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop - Memories and More

Welcome to the January 2019 Edition of the Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop, featuring a Memories & More theme! You'll see projects from stampers from around the world--I'm in Colorado Springs, Colorado. (Note: I can only sell to customers in the US, so any prices are in USD)

We generally hop the first Friday of each month, so be sure to come back regularly. This month I'm featuring a mini album using the 6x8 Memories & More pocket pages, along with some FREE Sale-a-Bration and Occasions Catalog products.
(see specific Product Purchase Links below the Blog Roll)

So, I have a confession to make. I don't really own any Memories & More card packs. I kinda don't like to get roped into preprinted stuff because I like to change the color combos, and use sets that don't necessarily coordinate with the images on the cards. I do, however, have some Variety Pack 6x8 Photo Pocket Pages, and that's what I used for my project. I cut a few pages in half, stapled them together, then added a cover...that's what you see in the above picture. I'll just flip through the book so you can get an idea of what I've done.

And for this blog post, I'm actually only going to show you the basic album, without a lot of decoration. I will share the embellishment and decoration in a different post. This is partly because I still need to complete the excavation of my stamp room, and partly because I don't want to overwhelm you with details at first. This is a very simple thing to make, and I feel like separating out the bare bones of it helps illustrate that point. You can always make it more froo-froo, but sometimes you just need something that gets the job done.

Although I mentioned I don't like getting roped into only using the color combo of the preprinted Memories & More cards, I *do* like using those color combos for inspiration. I've used a couple of the colors from the NEW Happiness Blooms Memories & More Card Pack, featured in the 2019 Occasions Catalog. Those colors are Night of Navy, and Call Me Clover. I chose these two colors because I wanted to coordinate with the FREE Sale-a-Bration Botanical Butterfly Designer Paper, and later I want to stamp some froggies in and on my mini album from the FREE Sale-a-Bration So Hoppy Together stamp set.

Sorry for the quality of the inside pictures, the pocket pages pick up glare like nobody's business! You can see as I'm flipping through, that there are no butterflies showing on the big pockets where I put the Designer Series Paper. This is because I don't like butterflies! Lol. The Botanical Butterfly DSP is SOOOO worth getting, though, as it has black and white designs on the back of each sheet (like the polka dots show above) that you can use instead.

To be clear, this particular leafy green sheet of the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper in the 4x6 pocket actually has black and white butterflies on the back of it. So, I cut a different sheet with the polka dots on it, and I put the leafy green pattern and the polka dot pattern back-to-back in the pocket, so you don't see ANY butterflies.

The cardstock pieces are just the same color/piece showing through the pocket pages from front to back. No need to add any colors back to back in those pockets. If you just want to keep your mini album simple, you could just drop some snapshots, or handwritten notes, or memorabilia into the pockets, adhering them to the DSP and cardstock if you want to keep them in place.

So that's the end of it...this shows the back side of the last two pockets, and the back cover. I will try to get a video done for you on the assembly for this one. It honestly goes together pretty fast if you know what to do. Lol, it took me a little longer because I was working it out as I was going along!

Stampin' Supplies: Variety Pack 6x8 Photo Pocket Pages, Night of Navy Cardstock, Call Me Clover Cardstock, Sale-a-Bration Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper, Dot-to-Dot Embossing Folder (used with the Big Shot), Tear & Tape Adhesive, Paper Trimmer (for cutting & scoring), Exacto knife (aka hobby blade), staples.
