Be back in a little while with a Stampin' Up! Video Tutorial for you!
Father's Day is quickly approaching, and this week I'll have some Stampin' Up! masculine card ideas for you to create something for that special day.
Today's project is a gift card for Dad highlighted by the extra special Blue Ribbon (wood, clear) set from the new Stampin' Up! Catalog. Paired with the World Spectacular Designer Series Paper, it makes a cheery and deserving greeting for the special Dad in your life. The bright colors and fun designer paper artwork will be a treat!
Tune in tomorrow for a Stampin' Up! Video Tutorial with some tips on assembling this gift card holder! And, for more masculine card ideas, I offer my Mainly Manly Cards series with step by step how-tos for masculine cards each month!
It's about time that I share another page from my 2012 Digital Scrapbooking Project, A Day in the Life. This page created to capture the memory of my birthday this past week.
I can't stress enough about the ease of use of My Digital Studio from Stampin' Up! And, as I promised myself at the beginning of this year, I would make this a fun and easy project with no pressure to make it "perfect"... just one step at a time.
Whether you are a traditional or digital scrapbooker doesn't matter. The important part is recording the memory.
Check out some of the supplies for scrapbooking from Stampin' Up! HERE.

How about a quick and easy wedding card idea? This Stampin' Up! card idea uses the Manhattan Flower Textured Impressions Folder and Vellum Card Stock that produces a "wow" in minutes!
The trick to using vellum is to "hide" the adhesive used to attach it to the card stock so that it is not visible from the card front.
On this card, I used Mini Glue Dots behind some of the areas that have been embossed with the Textured Impressions Folder. Works like a charm!
Then, I trimmed the vellum along the top outline of the flowers to add a bit of elegance.
Quick, easy,...ready to go in minutes!

The lazy days of summer are upon us and so are hot and sunny days here in Southeast Texas. So today, I am sharing an easy to create Stampin' Up! refreshing treat using Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper(125409) and the Bright Blossoms stamp set (wood-125495, clear-125497) that are available in the new 2012-2013 Stampin' Up!

It's so important to be hydrated during this season so this "dressed up" water bottle and sports drink mix are the perfect combo to have for any occasion!
I'm thinking...
In the meantime, I'll work on a Stampin' Up! video tutorial with the "how-to" for next week. Stay cool and have a great day!
