Just a quick post today to show you a card I made for Eric – we have an inside joke about squirrels, and since Stampin Up doesn’t have any squirrel stamps I went to my local scrapbook store & got this set from Kaiser Craft
Kaiser Craft Squirrels In Love Card by Wendie Bee
A special thanks to Cee Cee for the inspiration for this card – I pretty much cased the entire thing, but just changed the paper & colors to fit with the supplies I had on hand.
Yahoo!! It’s that time again – this week’s deals are great. I always seem to find something I want. (Great for me, terrible for my wallet).
The floral framelits, that coordinate with the Daydream medallions set, but they can be used for so many other things. I haven’t had the chance to order them, but will certainly be adding them to my order this week!
Stampin Up Weekly Deals – FEB 11 – 18 – Wendie Bee Montreal Demonstrator
Hiya Stampers,
Just a quick post today to share a card I made for Eric’s Grandmother who spoiled us with cake & presents on our most recent visit. I love spending time with family ❤
They have a budgie bird named Pom Pom, so I wanted to incorporate a bird in the card somehow… He is bright colors so I wanted to make sure the card reflected that as well.
Here is what I came up with:
Stampin Up retro fresh washi tape Merci / Thank You card by Montreal Demonstrator Wendie BeeStampin Up’s retro fresh washi tape made this card ridiculously easy & quick to make on the fly (last minute). The only cutting of paper was the card base and first layer… the tape I just pulled off a piece and layered each design onto the card. I used markers to clor the toucan bird, and fussy cut him out and adhering him using dimensionals
Here’s a really neat trick: Here is how I created a layered effect for the speech bubble :

Using the owl punch from Stampin Up, this workshop will feature three different cards using one punch. I love this punch – it is so versatile that it was the very first item I bought when I started out!
Here is one of the three card projects we will be making. I made this card a while ago and the blog post I wrote about it has gotten so much positive feedback that I thought I would include it as a workshop project! There will also be a Birthday themed card and a wedding themed card using the owl punch as well. Curious to know how you can use the owl punch to make these? Register to the workshop and find out 😛
This class is suitable for all levels of crafting experience. All instruction will be done in English, however some stamps and catalogs may be available in French.
