Scentsy Recipe Page - Blueberry Muffins

Good morning everyone!

I am SUPER EXCITED because this upcoming Saturday I suggested the website for splitcoaststampers inspiration challenge and Stephanie, the lady that hosts it, wants to use it and asked me to create a sample card for the challenge page! YAY! I am waiting impatiently to show everyone so in the meantime I will have to show you this instead :)

I thought I would share with you my latest Scentsy Recipe scrapbook page that I created for my last Scentsy home party as hostess & door prize gifts. This one is to create the scent BLUEBERRY MUFFINS! Smells delicious! This doesn't use all Stampin Up! products but pretty close... and they are just too darn cute not to share!



I think it turned out super adorable! I hand drew the floor using a ruler, my grid paper & a chocolate chip marker. I love Whiff of Joy stamps they are so cute! The little mouse is named Henry and this is their Henry Celebrating Mouse stamp. I colored him and the cupcakes using prismacolor pencils & gamsol. Here are the Stampin Up! products I used:

Stampin Up! Stamp Sets: Crazy for Cupcakes,

Paper: Stampin Up! Night of Navy, Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla Designer Series Paper from the Neutrals paper pack (LOVE LOVE LOVE this paper pack!)

Ink: Stampin Up! Classic ink pads in Brilliant Blue (retired, basic black

Accesories: Stampin Up! chocolate chip marker, stampin grid paper, blender pens for the blueberries with brilliant blue ink, close to cocoa marker (retired), stampin dimensionals

Sweet Joy Fold Cards

Good morning everyone!

Today I wanted to share with you a couple of Joy Fold cards that I made using the branch stamp from the Easter Blossoms stamp set. I love the way the stamp looks coloring it with a white gel pen. Very pretty and it makes it just pop off the background colors! These are so easy to do and fun to see what it looks like on different colors!

My first one is done using PINK PIROUETTE and EARLY ESPRESSO cardstock and the early espresso designer series paper from the Neutrals paper pack (gorgeous papers!)



The next one I did was using SO SAFFRON & SOFT SUEDE card stocks and the soft suede designer series papers also from the same neutrals designer paper pack



The butterflies are made using the beautiful embosslits die and the vellum cardstock. I love how they both turned out! These would be great to use for many different occasions - Birthday, Thinking of you, Get well, Sympathy.

To create a JOY FOLD CARD this is what you do:

1. For your base cardstock - cut it at 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" and then score at 5 1/2"

2. For the base cardstock that will be the opening piece - cut it at 3" x 8" and score it at 4"

3. You will need designer series paper - 1 piece cut at 4" x 5 1/4" for the inside and then 1 piece cut at 2 3/4" x 4" for the front piece

4. On your card flap piece - you will need to have 1 piece of cardstock stamped or designer series paper whichever you prefer (branch piece in my samples) cut at 2 3/4" x 3 3/4" that is for one layer - if you want to do 2 layers besides the base cut it a 1/4" smaller so 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" - after this is done adhere to the outside flap piece - the flap needs to open from the left so like a backwards book.

5. For the inside of the card adhere a white or neutral color cardstock piece cut at 2 3/4" x 3 3/4" and stamp your sentiment on. Adhere to inside flap piece.

6. Adhere your flap piece to the card base and create a closure using a punch or small stamp design, like my "For You"

Overalls Card - Template Pattern

For Father's Day last year I created this card:




Since then I have had many people ask me for the pattern for the overalls. I just now figured out how to use my scanner so I am attempting to post the pattern that I drew up so you can try one! Here it is, I hope it works for you!



I included the measurements so if you needed to draw the template you could. When I made the pattern for my card I drew the template out on a piece of regular paper, then folded it in half to cut the arm holes so they were even on both sides. After you do that then you can trace the pattern on a sturdier piece of cardstock to keep as your main pattern. Hope you enjoy it! If you make a card using th epattern, post a comment & link to your card I would love to see it! Have a great night - Laura

Good evening everyone! I absolutely love the new Easter Blossoms Stamp set in Occasions mini and have seen some gorgeous cards made with it, so I couldn't wait to ink it up! Here is the card that I made for my birthday card class that I put on last night.



I love how the white flowers from the branch really pop off the bashful blue. It looks so pretty when you see it in person. Sometimes my camera just doesn't cooperate with some colors to get a good photo of it! To create this card I stamped the branch in early espresso and then went over all the branch areas with my Chocolate Chip marker. Then I colored the flowers using my white signo gel pen. Quick & very pretty card that can be used for multiple occasions! I was inspired by a card made by genesis on splitcoast stampers. She did the branch on pink, looks very pretty too!

Stampin Up! Stamp Sets: Easter Blossoms, Occasional Quotes Hostess Set

Paper: Stampin Up! Bashful Blue, Whisper White, Early Espresso

Ink: Stampin Up! Classic ink pads in Early Espresso

Springtime Vintage Country Quilt

Good evening all! I love the quilted cards and as soon as I saw the Springtime Vintage Designer Series paper in the Occasions Mini I knew I wanted to do a quilt card with it! Here it is:



If you want to try a Quilted Card this is how you do it:

Take a card front size 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of white card stock. Cover the card stock with assorted squares punched out of designer series paper. I used the 1 1/4" square punch. Make sure to offset the squares for each row. Then when your paper is covered cut out the quilt using the TOP NOTE DIE. Then I embossed my quilt with the petals-a-plenty embossing folder to make it look extra "quilty" That's it! Very easy and looks very cool!

I layered mine on a piece of bravo burgundy that I also embossed with the petals-a-plenty embossing folder.

Here is a full on look at the "quilt" so you can really see the embossing folder impressions:



I loved it! Very easy card and looks really pretty!

Here is what I used:

Stampin Up! Stamp Sets: Elements of Style

Paper: Stampin Up! Crumb Cake, Bravo Burgundy, Springtime Vintage DSP, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla, Whisper White

Ink: Stampin Up! Classic ink pads in Early Espresso

Accessories: Stampin Up! Big Shot, Petals-A-Plenty Embossing folder, Top Note Die, Very Vanilla Ribbon, 1" & 1 1/4" circle punches, dimensionals, sponge

Not ALL Stampin Up...but HAD to share!

Ok... I know that this project is not ONLY made with just Stampin Up! products but there are some...and I thought this turned out to SUPER CUTE not to share!

Besides being a Stampin Up! demonstrator I am a Scentsy consultant too. I have my first home show this weekend and wanted to do something special for the hostess & have some cute door prizes. I love doing Scrapbook recipe pages and because Scentsy has a TON of yummy "recipes" you can make combining their scents...I created a Scentsy Hostess Recipe Book & Scrapbooked Scentsy Recipe cards for my Hostess thank you & door prize giveaways!

Here is my Scentsy Hostess Recipe Book:



I love the Stampin UP! VOILA set and was super sad to see it retire because I use it a lot! The Booklet is the same style as the one featured on the Stampin Up! 2007-2008 workshop wow DVD.

Here is my Scentsy Scrapbook Recipe Page for - CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!



This is made using Stampin Up! DSP in the neutrals 12 x 12 pack. This paper is AWESOME! I just got mine the other day and I will be loading up because you get 40 sheets and the patterns are all incredible. I love it! The stamp I used is from WHIFF OF JOY the Willow Collection. I love all Elisabeth Bell stamps! I hand drew the floor for my scene. My Scentsy Recipe page features a bonus pull out recipe here:



These cookies are THE BOMB! So if you feel like baking you can make real chocolate chip cookies or if you are lazy...like me... you can just make your house smell like you did :)

Here is my final picture that shows the page mounted in my recipe book with the pullout recipe tucked behind!




I just thought these were too cute not to share! I hope you enjoyed them! If you want to try the Scentsy Recipe... you can visit my Scentsy Website to purchase any Scentsy products you may need if you don't have a consultant. Thanks all! Have a Scent-Sational Day!

Check out my Punch Art HONEY BEE!

Good afternoon all!
I am SUPER excited to show you my card today! I designed a really cute HONEY BEE using Stampin Up! punches! I think it turned out adorable!



What do you think? Here are the punches I used to make the bee:

Head: 1 1/4" circle
Eyes: Boho Blossoms flower but between petals like a tear drop
Nose: Circle from Two Step Owl
Body: Ornament Punch with the little tab cut off
Wings: Two Step Bird Punch (the wings)
Legs & Arm: Swirls & Scribbles Die
Antennaes: The stem from Two Step Bird Punch
Hearts on Antennaes from the Two Step Owl Punch

For the wings I stamped the flourish from Priceless in versamark onto vellum cardstock then heat embossed with heat & stick powder then Dazzling Diamonds. After I did that then I punched them out. The "honeycomb" I made using the plastic from the top of a clementine box when you buy the oranges. This is my entry for this week's Mojo Monday sketch challenge week 177. Here is the sketch:



Hope you try a bee...they are super cute! If you do be sure and leave a message with your creation I would love to see it!
