<br />
I love pretty paper and cardstock and have tons of it in my scrapbook stash. I could probably wallpaper the entire neighborhood more than once with my stash of paper (oh-my). Anyway, I wanted to issue myself a challenge in 2015 since I have so much lovely paper to work with.<br />
<br />
Challenge - Use it Up!<br />
I am a Stampin Up demonstrator and although I use mainly products from the most recent catalog, I do have a lot of cardstock and papers that has since retired. My personal challenge is to use the paper to make cards and projects that I can make and either sell, donate, or give to friends & family. This first challenge is to use cardstock from my retired stash - This first week, my color to use was Groovy Guava from Stampin Up. Next weeks challenge is to use River Rock cardstock from Stampin Up. . Two colors of cardstock I couldn't bring myself to sell or give away when I was cleaning out my craft room recently.<br />
<br />
Here are the cards I made with Groovy Guava.. I actually made 10 cards ( 6 butterfly and 4 circles), but can easily duplicate for the remaining cardstock I have in my stash which is about 10 more sheets. I also give myself snaps for using some old washi tape in my stash and some remaining banners from last year's sell-a-bration freebies along with the new Stampin Up Thinlits dies.<br />

<br />
I've been absent for a while, yes I know - sorry.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I had plans to get to see some friends last weekend, but wasn't feeling well so couldn't go. However, I wanted to give my friends a little gift and a challenge to boot.<br />
<br />
I have made these matchbook mini scrapbooks from a tutorial from Kathy Orta and I love them. I love them so much I wanted my friends to have one - but not have to worry about constructing the base of the mini scrapbook. Therefore I made them one AND challenge them to style it with their choice of products and embellies. <br />
<br />
Then, at our next gathering, we can share how each of us decorated our matchbook mini scrapbooks. I am sharing one that I made and matted with Theresa Collins papers, just to give them a little peek as to what one of mine looks like. It doesn't have any photos yet, but here it is...<br />

I have mailed their matchbook mini scrapbooks today, so I hope they get in early next week. I also hope they post pics on their blog once they are done.<br />
<br />
Good luck girls and have fun decorating this scrapbook!<br />

They say imitation is the best form of flattery. Well, I can tell you my entire project today was based on CASING projects from Pinterest and Youtube. I will post the links for the original projects at the end of this post.</div>

Anyway, I wanted to create a very "pretty" card set for a friend of mine at work. I absolutely love how pretty and elegant this turned out. Since I didn't just want to hand her the cards, I also found a pretty box to present the cards. </div>

I just received my most recent order from MFT and I purchased the Beautiful Baby stamp set, so I felt the need to use it on this sketch challenge.<br />

I love the colors and think this will be a card I can create with different stamps for different occasions.<br />
Enjoy!<br />

<br />
I am posting an all SU version of the MFT weekly sketch challenge. I think the layout is great and conducive to any stamp set/paper stash. I used the Ghoulish Greetings and Freaky Friends stamp and the Motley Monsters DSP all by SU.<br />
<br />
Again, here is the sketch:<br />

<br />
I used MFT <b>Picture This</b> stamp set and all MFT cardstock <b>Fuse Green, Blu Raspberry, & Primative White.</b> I also used some contraband from Stampin up! like the inks, ribbon and twine. I also found a scrap of pattern paper on my messy desk, that just happened to match, so I used it on this card. Overall, I think the card came out pretty nice. <br />
<br />
<br />
Here is my version...<br />

<br />
I'm so excited to show you this picture frame art that I made with my stamping supplies. I used 1 sheet of Patterned paper (I honestly don't remember the brand, but I think either Studio Calico or Pink Paisley) a few rub ons, and some small punches and glitter paper. Anyway, I wanted something pretty and inspiring to mount somewhere in my craft room and so I came up with this awesome project.<br />
<br />
It was so quick and easy to make and the results were amazing...<br />

<br />
I am off work today to attend my cousin's wedding. Of course I have to make them a card, but I did not get a chance to do it last night so I had to come up with something quick this morning. I looked through my stash and thought I would use some of my old Making Memories rub-ons along with an SU punch to make this quick, but very cute wedding card. Also, since I'm sure the happy couple will be getting many cards with images of brides and grooms, cakes, hearts, etc... I thought I would create one that is less cliché.<br />

<br />
Over the weekend I made a card for the MFT Weekly Stamp Club Challenge. I really liked the layout so I made a Stampin Up version of the card using two of the new holiday stamp sets (Freaky Friends #135158 & Ghoulish Greetings #136664).<br />
<br />
I also used the new designer series paper Motley Monsters #135819 - I love this paper, it is so cute for halloween & little boy pages/cards.<br />
<br />

<br />
Today I am posting a card that I made for the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/118806178/pair-of-designer-stripe-curtain-panels?ga_search_query=horizontal%20Kirtam%20Designs%20/" target="_blank">MFT Sketch Challenge</a>. I haven't participated in one for a while, but I decided to enter the challenge this week. I really like the colors on this card and can see repeating this card in the future.<br />

<br />
I love this retired paper from SU - Kaleidoscope. When it came out, I purchased several packs for a stamp camp that I hosted and since I had about a half of pack left, I thought I would make some cards to give away as gifts from the remainder. I paired the paper up with a current stamp set - which is really my favorite (Fabulous Four #134174) and I really like how these came out. This could be a very masculine card if you use masculine colors as I did in one of the samples below.<br />
<br />
I am on a mission to use all of my patterned paper that has retired. Truthfully, it's been kind of hard since I really love all the new stuff, but I figure I can make the same style of cards with different PP to use with gift card packs. <br />
<br />
Here they go...<br />

<br />
I am playing with many of my new stamps I have purchased from SU's holiday catalog and so I wanted to share a couple of cards I made from the Four Feathers stamp & die set. I've paired this set with the watercolor wonder gold washi tape and some gold sequin trim. I really love this set and am having a blast using it to create quick, simple, and yet awesome cards...<br />

<br />
Last month when I attended convention, I joined a few organized swaps, however, I wanted to make some general swaps to swap with all the great demonstrators in SLC. These are some of my general convention swaps. I think they came out very cute. The stars with a hit of glimmer paper made them stand out for sure. <br />

<br />
So I just got back from the SU Convention a week ago, and am totally re-inspired to create and more importantly SHARE my creativity with friends and family. I am planning a Stamp Camp for sometime in August and have 3 themes to plan for: (1) Clean and Simple Cards and (2) Project Life by SU and (3) Holiday Stamp Camp.<br />
<br />
Here is a very simple yet cute and clean card using our new Washi Tape. I can see this being a bit hit with my customers as this is a 5 minute card (at most) I can see everyone whipping these up in a flash when they need it. It also stars my favorite word sentiment stamp at the moment - Fabulous Four (item #134174).<br />
<br />
Here it is:<br />

Today I wanted to share some of the cards I made with Stampin Up's Retro Fresh DS Patterned Paper. I love the colors and the washi tape that coordinates perfectly. </div>

Here are two more cards using the Stampin Up Kaleidoscope DS Paper. I can't seem to get enough of it. I'm actually designing a stamp camp totally around this pack of paper - can you believe it.<br />
<br />
Anyway, here are the cards......<br />

Woo-Hoo!!!!! I'm so excited to be re-united with Stampin Up! I re-joined as a demonstrator this month and am super excited with all the new products and styles they've added since I last joined (about 10 years ago).<br />
<br />
I also love this new line of Patterned Paper from Stampin Up: <a href="http://www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=132995" target="_blank">Kaleidoscope DS Paper</a>. I had so much fun making cards with this bold line. Here are a few for today:<br />

What a deal!! So, I made a few more cards for V-Day coming up in a couple of weeks. I had this very cute patterned paper and embellies from a previous purchase, so I busted them out and used it on these cards. Aren't they just adorable!!<br />
<br />

here are the $1.50 stamps (great deal):<br />

Today's VD Card is a little more traditional. It made with all scraps that were laying on my crafting table - so was super excited how cute it turned out. Additionally, I was able to use my new transformable dies from My Favorite Things - a company that I'm starting to really dig.</div>
