CASEing VA.SUNSHINE

It's been a long time since I've played along with the Featured Stamper Challenge on SCS (so many challenges, so little time!). This week's Featured Stamper #130 is Teresa Kline, va.sunshine on SCS. Teresa's Shabby Chic card was featured on iPICKS earlier this summer, and I knew it was the one I had to case! The only things I've changed are the colors and designer paper/cardstock.RECIPE
Paper: Melon Mambo and Bermuda Bay Patterns DP, Bermuda Bay Textured CS, and Whisper White CS
Embellishments: Whisper White 5/16" Jumbo Brads, Melon Mambo Polka Dot 1/2" Grosgrain Ribbon, Chit Chat Whisper White Rub-Ons

SALE-A-BRATION for FS106, JULIEMLACEY

Today's Featured Stamper #106 on SCS is JulieMLacey. Julie's gallery is full of clean, crisp designs. THIS CARD in particular jumped out at me. I've had my Sale-A-Bration stamp sets and designer paper on the brain and knew I could use them to case Julie's card. I used two Sale-a-Bration stamp sets - Polka Dot Punches and Congrats - along with the Sale-a-Bration Designer Paper Pack, Delicate Dots.RECIPE

TIC TAC TOE VALENTINE

Today's SCS Featured Stamper #100 is JulieHRR. I've had THIS CARD of Julie's in my favorites forever ... I've always loved her color combination of Bravo Burgundy, Pretty In Pink and Certainly Celery! I kept Julie's colors and general layout but changed the stamp set and sentiment. My card ended up to be an odd size - 3 1/4" x 4 1/4". I didn't intend to make it that size ... it just ended up that way, but is a nice size for enclosing with a gift. I just realized that I didn't use any designer paper on this card ... that hasn't happened in a very long time! RECIPE

SCS FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE FS97 CARDS BY AMERICA

Today's SCS Featured Stamper #97 is Cards by America. HERE is the card I chose to case.

Things I changed from the original include colors from Black & White to Chocolate Chip & Very Vanilla, and I used a different sentiment (from All Holidays) with Small & Large Oval Punches. Both of the large Very Vanilla panels were dry embossed with the Cuttlebug ... one uses the Swiss Dots and Tiny Bubbles Embossing Folders. The only stamping on my card is the "thank you" sentiment from All Holidays. The main image is all Chocolate Chip Rub-Ons from Love & Happiness (retired). The large flower is also a rub-on, and was cut out and popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals. I added miscellaneous self-adhesive rhinestones and half-back pearls (all non-SU).

RECIPE
Stamps: All Holidays, Love & Happiness Rub-Ons (retired)
Paper: Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla CS
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Embellishments: Misc. non-SU self-adhesive rhinestones and half-back pearls
Tools: Small & Large Oval Punch, Cuttlebug with Tiny Bubbles and Swiss Dots Embossing Folders (non-SU)
Supplies: Stampin' Dimensionals

Thanks for all the awesome comments you've been leaving lately! ... they truly make my days! Many of you have asked how my foot is doing .... SLOW! I got the stitches out earlier this week, and am still hobbling around with a walker ... putting a little bit of weight on it.

FAUX NURSERY NECESSITIES

Today's Featured Stamper #96 on SCS is Annascreations. You can view Anna's beautiful gallery HERE, and HERE is Anna's card that I chose to case. I've had this card of Anna's in my favorites for a long time and have always liked how it so simply mocks the sailboat image from the Nursery Necessities stamp set.

I pretty much kept everything the same except the designer paper and colors, a different sentiment, and used brads with 1/4" circles behind. The designer paper is Manchester, and the colors are Always Artichoke, Baja Breeze, Kraft, and Very Vanilla. The Kraft background and the right sail were run through the Cuttlebug machine (non-SU) with the Swiss Dots Embossing Folder. The bottom of the sailboat is 1/2 of the 1 3/8" Circle Punch. I think the other details on the card are self-explanatory .. if not, feel free to contact me.
RECIPE
Stamps: sentiment from By Ones & By Twos
Paper: Manchester DP, Always Artichoke, Baja Breeze, Kraft and Very Vanilla CS
Ink: Always Artichoke
Embellishments: Always Artichoke Brads, Baja Breeze 5/8" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon

SCS FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE FS92 WENDYBELL

I think my mojo is back, as I was able to complete three card designs this morning. I'll be sharing them with you throughout the week.

This card is a case of THIS CARD by Wendybell, SCS Featured Stamper #92. The changes I made include using a different Cuttlebug embossing folder, adding Silver Stickles, using different ribbon (Baja Breeze 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon), and a different stamp for the sentiment (mine is from last year's Sale-a-Bration stamp set, So Many Scallops), and I flipped the sketch. Ignore my one Stickles smudge on the left side ... ugh!RECIPE

SCS FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE FS90 SPEEDYSTAMPER

Today's Featured Stamper #90 on SCS is my good cyberspace friend, Kay Kaltoff, speedystamper! You can see Kay's fabulous artwork in her SCS gallery, and on her blog, Stamping to Share. CONGRATS, Kay!

HERE is Kay's card I chose to CASE for the challenge. I kept the same "large flower theme" and the same general layout. I used the stamp set, Doodle This to create the Poinsettia flower by stamping in Chocolate Chip onto the Old Olive DP (1X) and Ruby Red DP(2X) -- ALL DP is from Holiday Treasures. I then cut each flower out, staggered, and layered. A Build-A-Brad adorns the center of the Poinsettia flower with another Holiday Treasures Ruby Red DP pattern as the inside (1/2" Circle Punch). I rolled the petals of the flower around a pencil to make them curl for depth and interest. The ribbon is Riding Hood Red Tafetta, and the sentiment is from the Level One Hostess Set, Best Yet. It is punched out with the Large Oval Punch and backed with another staggered Ruby Red CS Large Oval Punch and raised up on Stampin' Dimensionals. I used Ruby Red ink to sponge around the border of the oval sentiment.

I don't know why I've been making so many Christmas cards lately, because I am so much more of a Fall/Autumn person. Seems like I've skipped that season altogether! I'm off to create my swap cards for Tuesday's weSTAMP swap. Will share a homecoming photo or two when I get a chance.
RECIPE
Stamps: Doodle This, Best Yet
Paper: Holiday Treasures DP, Chocolate Chip, Ruby Red, and Whisper White CS

SCS FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE FS89 INK-E

This card was created for SCS Featured Stamper Challenge #89, featuring the beautiful gallery of Ink-E, Emily. HERE is Emily's card I chose to case. When searching featured stamper galleries, I'm usually very conscientious about not choosing a card that was made using a sketch challenge (one of the Featured Stamper Challenge rules). It wasn't until I was in the midst of case-ing Emily's card that I realized it was a sketch challenge card. So, not only is this a case of Emily's card, it uses Sketch Challenge #97.

I don't know what the deal is with this card, but I must have photographed it 50 times! ... and it's still not that great of a picture! Is Pink Pirouette the new River Rock? LOL! (River Rock was always difficult to photograph.)
RECIPE
Stamps: Lots of Thoughts (retired), In The Stars (retired)
Paper: Sweet Always DP, Pink Pirouette, Chocolate Chip, Regal Rose, Pumpkin Pie, and Whisper White CS
Ink: Chocolate Chip and Pumpkin Pie
Embellishments: Regal Rose 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon, Styled Silver Star Brads from Hodgepodge Hardware

SCS FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE FS83 CARD CRAZY

Today's Featured Stamper #83 on SCS is Denise, Card Crazy. HERE is Denise's beautiful gallery, and HERE is Denise's card I chose to case.

I changed everything but kept the same layout of Denise's card. Details ...

* My card uses the new stamp set Crazy for Cupcakes, and the new designer paper, Sweet Always. Colors ... Pumpkin Pie, Regal Rose, and Pink Pirouette.

* The cupcakes were colored using Pumpkin Pie and Regal Rose Markers, then Diamond Stickles were added for sparkle and depth. The cake plate was colored using the Sahara Sand Maker.

* The Ticket Corner Punch was used on the main image panel, then three holes were Paper Pierced on the Pink Pirouette panel.

* The sentiment piece was created by punching Pink Pirouette CS with the Designer Label Punch, then Paper Piercing Regal Rose CS using the Punches Plus Classy Brass Template and punched with the 1" Circle Punch. Be sure to pierce first, then punch ... it's soooo much easier! The sentiment was stamped in Basic Black onto Whisper White CS and punched with the Word Window Punch. I then punched two Pumpkin Pie CS Word Window Punches and staggered them behind the Whisper White CS piece.

* I added the 1/2" Pumpkin Pie Striped Grosgrain Ribbon on the left to balance out my card. Don't know why Denise's card seemed balanced and mine didn't ???

* The orange Dew Drops are adhered using Tombo Adhesive.

RECIPE
Stamps: Crazy for Cupcakes
Paper: Sweet Always DP, Pumpkin Pie, Regal Rose, Pink Pirouette, and Whisper White CS

The sentiment is from the new Level One Hostess Set called Best Yet. The sentiment is punched with the Designer Label Punch, and is backed by punching Baja Breeze CS TWICE and staggered. The striped Baja Breeze DP is from the new Manchester DP, and the Pink Pirouette DP is from Bella Rose DP.

SCS FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE FS81 KOKIROSE

Today's Featured Stamper #81 on SCS is Patricia, Kokirose on SCS. HERE is Patricia's card I chose to case. I changed the stamp set to Simply Said and the colors to those from Cutie Pie DP ... Purely Pomegrante, Bashful Blue, and Certainly Celery. I used X-Mas Red Stickles for the flower centers. They really sparkle IRL, and was impossible to capture in the photo. The oval sentiment is backed by two staggered Bashful Blue ovals of the same size. The scallop border was created with the new Scallop Border Punch, and I used my Paper Piercer to add a hole on each scallop. I used the flower outline stamp from this stamp set for the Bashful Blue background piece by stamping in Versamark before running through the Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots Embossing Folder.

Off to mentally prepare for week three on the new job .... where DID the weekend go?! RECIPE

I used the stamp set By Ones & By Twos which made it's appearance in the 2008 Spring Mini, b) different colors ...

APPLES TO APPLES

My card today cases THIS CARD by Lost in the 60's (Diane), SCS Featured Stamper #72. When I saw Diane's card, I knew it was another chance to use my Tart & Tangy stamp set before the end of the Occasions Mini Collection ... June 30. I have used this stamp set more often than any other stamp set I own! I felt the same way about Merry & Bright in the Holiday Mini. I sure hope Stampin' Up! continues this style of stamp set in the new catalog! I pretty much changed everything from Diane's card except the layout and Swiss Dots dry embossed background.

My card was also majorly inspired by THIS CARD by dpeterson on SCS. I fell in love with her card when she posted it yesterday, and found her card and Diane's to be a great combination!

Last night while blog surfing, I came across THIS CARD by Angie Tieman. While leaving a comment on her beautiful card, I congratulated her for using a Stampin' Up! Library Clip ... I bought these when they first came out and have YET to use ONE of them! It's not that I don't like them ... I think they are ADORABLE! ... I just never really knew what to do with them. Anyway, I received an e-mail from Angie this morning CHALLENGING me to use a Library Clip! ... and I DID IT !!!!

SCS FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE FS69 MMBC

Yesterday's Featured Stamper (FS69) on SCS was Maren Benedict, aka mmbc on SCS ... and fellow Great Swaps Girl.

You can view Maren's beautiful gallery HERE, and see her blog, Zany Not Crazy HERE.

As you can see, I changed the color scheme and theme, and Maren's card appears to be shorter than my A2 (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") card.

SCS FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE FS68 PEANUTBEE

In my previous post tonight, I closed by saying that I was going off to bed. I made the mistake of checking to see if the Featured Stamper (FS68) on SCS had been posted yet. Well ... one thing led to another and just had to case one of Peanutbee's cards from her beautiful gallery! I was thrilled to find THIS CARD by Peanutbee using the stamp set, So Much. I've had this set for weeks, and hadn't used it yet.

I kept my card very simple. The things I changed ... a) different dp - Flowers For You, b) different colors - Tempting Turquoise, Regal Rose, Lovely Lilac, Certainly Celery, c) I used the Slit Punch to create my scallop edge versus the Corner Rounder, and d) I omitted the three rhinestones/dew drops on the bottom of the card.RECIPE
