Luminaria
One of the many wonderful perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is the terrific monthly magazine we receive from Stampin' Up! filled with lots of inspirational projects. This is one project I CASED almost exactly as it appeared in the November 09 edition. This is a luminaria and looks gorgeous when lit from within by a non-flammable electric tea light. I began by making a box with Baja Breeze 12"x12" textured card stock, then cut holes in all four sides with the Circle Scissors Plus. I stamped the Medallion background stamp on Vellum card stock using Soft Suede Classic Ink and adhered them from the inside. A circle of tiny blossoms decorate the outside edge; I made them using the 4-petal flower punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and textured Soft Suede card stock. Next I ran Very Vanilla and Old Olive card stocks through the Big Shot using the Birds & Blooms Sizzlits 4-Pack Dies. A small center of So Saffron card stock punched from the circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack is added to each of the centers, then a Jewels Basic Pearls. Wouldn't this be beautiful decoration for a Christmas Eve or New Years Eve event?

Sweet, Sweet Baby
Team member April Waite and her husband just welcomed their second daughter into the world! I'm sorely without baby stamps so I created this sweet card using the Big Shot almost exclusively (just one bit of stamping!) I began with a base of Perfect Plum card stock, then ran Whisper White card stock through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka-Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The letters are cut with Alphabet Simple Letters Bigz Die in Regal Rose, So Saffron, Certainly Celery and Perfect Plum card stocks. Flowers are cut from Birds & Blooms Sizzlits 4-Pack Dies. To create the Certainly Celery center, I stamped the image from the heart in Always stamp set using Certainly Celery Classic Ink then punched it out with the 1" Circle Punch. For the center of the So Saffron flower, I punched a piece of Perfect Plum card stock with the flower punch from Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack. I threaded some white crochet thread through an flower-shaped Bitty Button, tied it in a bow, then adhered the card stock flower to the back of the button with a Mini Glue Dot. A piece of 5/8" White Organza Ribbon completes this soft, sweet card for baby.
