Cardstock, Stamps & Ink

Convention Stamp Camp

As most of you know my Stampin Up group CSI-NY (Cardstock, Stamps & Ink) holds a Stamp Camp for Demonstrators at Convention every year. We make 7 projects. One of them is always a recipe project. We ask everyone that attends the stamp camp to submit a recipe. We print them all & hand them out. This year we made a recipe box. It was an awesome design by one of the girls in my group Karen P. Here is a picture of all of the projects we made.

Recipe Box

This is a "French Fry" box it stands up on it's own & the tags says"I heard you caught a bug!" It contains:

Chicken Noodle Soup

Cough drop

Tea

  Outside        Inside

  

  

This card is made with Stampin Up's new colors:

Poppy Parade

Daffodil Delight

This card uses:

Snowflake Die #2

Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder

Photo Corner Punch

Scallop Oval Punch

and LOTS of Shimmer Mist The whole card just shimmers!

This card is made with the same die as the purse in my previous post the Scallop Square die plus several others. It is all cut out & embossed with Big Shot dies & then layered. We then added a little glitter & dyed the ribbon to match by dragging it over the ink pad. The color of everything is Stampin Up's new Blushing Bride. Here it looks pinker than in really is.

Calender Cover

4.24x7.25

Here is a sample of what some of the calender pages would look like after pictures were put in them. You will notice a few discontinued stamps but they were replaced at Stamp Camp for current items. I will be posting the blank pages this week also.

Scallop Square Die

My Granddaughter Alana is 11 she has always wanted to learn to sew. So we had a girls day we baked pies & I taught her how to sew. She made her own purse with the Scallop Square Die & the Big Shot. She LOVES to use my Big Shot! The purse is very easy. All just straight sewing. She had a blast! It took about 4 hours but remember she has never even touched a sewing machine before. She did an awesome job. We also went to the fabric store so that she could pick out the fabrics. They are all her choices & I think she did a great job with it. If you look close at the handle on the right you can see we added a little puppy with a bone button as she loves animals. 

 This is Alana sewing the X's on the squares. This is also my new sewing machine. It automatically makes about 75 different stitches. She had so much fun with this that I think her bag has almost every one of those stitches on it! LOL!

This is the purse. She is very happy with it & I hope you enjoyed seeing it!
