Yesterday we had our first team crop in a long time and it was wonderful! I got some stuff done and got to chat with great friends- a perfect rainy day!! While there I saw the top card – designed by my sideline Alyson Mayo (this women is an amazing artist!). I have to say I loved it!! and of course that means I also had to scrap-lift it!! Below are three of the cards I created using the template of Alyson’s card AND directions in case you would like to create one too!

This one I created using Mayberry paper and stickease- the sentiment is from the stamp set Trees and Things.

Here I used the Miracle paper and stickease and the stamp set that comes with the Miracle workshop on the go.

And my last one of the day using the Wings Creative Basics and Wings stickease with creme brulee ribbon and licorice opaques.

First, I love using stickease with these cards- it only takes a few minutes and most of our stickease packs have a nice large image that can ‘pop’ into the sky of the card. The think to remember is to back the part that sticks up with paper so that it does not stick to the card base.

Second, how to make it! Take a regular 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 invitation card. Cut one inch of the backside of the card. Score the front side of the card in half (at 2 1/8). The one ince piece that was cut off the back can be cut in half so that it is 5 1/2 by 1/2. Use that piece to create the ledge for the bottom of the card. To do this mount the piece on foam squares and place at the bottom of the back side of the card (which is now the short side).

I hope you can understand it- it really is a super simple card to make!! If you have trouble with my directions let me know and I can post a photo tutorial!

To create this card I used the On the Edge pattern from Wishes, Mayberry paper, Pink Ribbon Collection, our 2″ scallop punch and our watercolour pencils. A very simple but cute card!

Now hop on over to Jill’s blog to see what she has created!

This is a picture of the card I created using the stamping with liquid applique technique I showed in yesterdays video. To create this I used the Wings Creative Basics paper and ribbon and the Trees and Things stamp set.

I would love to be able to claim this project as my own- but, this was created by the very talented people in the art studio at CTMH. I LOVE it!! This set is created using our My Creations Board Book, Mayberry Paper and the Fill in the Blanks Stamp Set (which I totally need to get!)

Check out all the cute pages below- I know I will be replicating this for sure! I have three cousins and a very good friend who are all expecting and this book would be a great addition to a baby gift!

We were like crazed kids we were so excited! We even went into the lobby and had our photo taken by the lovely girl at the front desk- we introduced ourselved and said we were consultants and she said, “Oh I know, I could tell.” That made us laugh- I mean who else but one of us would find this a major highlight of their trip!! But, now I can check it off my bucket list!

Every catalogue release my upline and I hold a Stamp Camp for our team and some customers. This event does double duty for all of us – gives us time to crop and see the new product samples AND allows us time to conduct some team business meetings. Today I thought I would share with you some of the artwork from our day.

There was lots more artwork than this but I just wanted to share a sampling today!

Hope you enjoyed!
