Facebook

So, I joined the 21st century and created a facebook profile. If any of you would like to be my "friend" on there, look me up. I'm just listed as Shauna Cundick. I'm hoping to spread the word about my stamping events on there. So now you can find out about my stamping classes and such right here on my blog, on my facebook page, and on my website at http://shaunacundick.stampinup.net

The 12 days of Holiday Sales special on Big Shot products ends on Tuesday, so if you are interested in that, let me know ASAP.

I hope you are all enjoying this Christmas season and that you are (just about) ready for Christmas. I have to apologize for the lack of idea posts this month, it is just that I'm working hard trying to get ready as well. I'm making most of my gifts this year (stamped tile coasters, birthday calendars, regular calendars, bundles of cards, magnetic Build a Bear paper dolls, etc.) so I'll have to share some of those with you later on. The Build a Bear paper dolls are my favorite!

Stampin' Up! is having a great sale on dies and vinyl for the Big Shot. Do you own a big shot? If so, this is a great time to get a great price on dies for it. Maybe you don't yet own a big shot but would like to in the future--stock up on the dies now and then buy your big shot in January during Sale-a-Bration and get free sets at the same time! This sale ends next Tuesday, December 22.

Birthday Water Bottle Topper

Here is another water bottle topper. Click here to see the first one I posted. This one uses the cupcake wheel along with the Party Hearty stamp set. Colors used are Pretty in Pink, Chocolate Chip, and So Saffron. To get the multi-colored stamp, I colored directly onto the stamp with my Stampin' Write markers. The 1-1/4" and scallop circle punches reinforce the hole where the topper sits over a water bottle.

Coasters


My friend and I made some coasters today for Christmas gifts. These were so fun and easy to make! These coasters were stamped with the Baroque Motifs stamp set that can be found in the current Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalog. We also made some using the Circle Circus stamp set which turned out great. I'll have to get a picture of those and upload it later.

Saturday, November 14, 2009

Polka Dot Petals


I love Stampin' Up!'s bold stamps. They just make cards so easy (no coloring involved). All you need are stamps, ink, and paper!

This card is made using the Pick a Petal stamp set. So fun! You can stamp as many petals as you'd like to make your flowers. The black gingham ribbon finishes it off.

Thursday, November 12, 2009

Rectangle Window Christmas


This stamp set is retired, but I'm posting this card for the idea.

I used the 1-1/4" square punch to make a window on the card. To make it rectangle, just punch the square a couple times next to where you punched first. That way you can make the rectangle any length you desire.

When the card is open, the trees are stamped inside the card.

Tuesday, November 10, 2009

Baroque Motifs


I just love the black gingham ribbon that Stampin' Up! sells. It works with so many different cards. This card features the Baroque Motifs stamp set. I stamped the flower from that set and then punched it out with the circle punch and layered it on the card. Quick and easy!

Sunday, November 8, 2009

Holly Jolly Pocket Card


Here is a different idea for a Christmas Card--a pocket card. I wrapped a 5-1/2"x2" piece of Designer Series Paper around the base of the card and glued it at the bottom and on the back sides. Then, the actual stamped card gets tucked into the pocket. I used the slot punch to punch a hole for the ribbon. Colors are Real Red, So Saffron, and Always Artichoke. The star punch is mounted with a Stampin' Dimensional for a finishing touch

Saturday, November 7, 2009

Snowman Christmas


This Christmas card uses a couple of retired stamp sets, but I thought I'd post it for the idea. This layout would work great with almost any stamp set. I also like the red gingham ribbon for the scarf on the snowman.

The colors used are Real Red, Handsome Hunter, and Brilliant Blue. I used the Stampin' Pastels to shade in the snowman a little.

Season of Joy 2

Here is the same card that I posted Wednesday, but with the colors switched. It uses the Season of Joy stamp set. I can't decide which I like better.

Wednesday, November 4, 2009

Harvest


Autumn Harvest is a perfect stamp set for this time of year. I used Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron, Always Artichoke, and Chocolate Chip on this card. The brads are Always Artichoke and the dots are made with the paper piercing tool in the Crafter's tool kit. I watercolored the pumpkins using my Aquapainter.

If you'd like to order, visit my website at http://shaunacundick.stampinup.net and click SHOP NOW.

Season of Joy


This Christmas card uses the Season of Joy stamp set. This is one of my favorite stamp sets. It makes such quick and easy (and classy) Christmas cards.

Big on Christmas


Here is a hand-stamped Christmas Card that I offered as part of a card buffet in the past. I love the Big on Christmas stamp set. We stamped it in red, then again in black and cut out the snowman from the black image. After coloring and cutting out, mount the snowman with a stampin' dimensional.

Single Ornament


This is another card that I received as part of a demonstrator swap. If you want to join my team, you can participate in these fun events with other demonstrators. I just love the ideas that we give to one another.

This card uses Delightful Decorations and the ornament punch, a perfect duo! Colors are Old Olive and Elegant Eggplant.

Heard from the Heart Holiday Card

Here is a Christmas card that some of you may recognize. We did it as part of a stamp-a-stack last year. I stamped the snowflakes from the Snow Swirled set in white and then the greeting from Heard from the Heart in garden green. The scallop edge punch and striped grosgrain ribbon add the finishing touches to this quick and fun card.

Wednesday, October 28, 2009

More Ornaments


Delightful Decorations is my FAVORITE new Christmas stamp set (in case you couldn't already tell from my posts). I received this card from a swap with other demonstrators, but the maker did not sign their work so I can't give credit. This card features two ornaments tied with the silver elastic cord that can be found in the Holiday Mini Catalog. There are so many possibilities with this stamp set, be sure to order yours today. If you order by Saturday, you can take advantage of my amazing stamp sale and get it for 10-15% off!!!

Digital Snowflake Card


A few squares of paper, a scallop edge, a punch, a button, and a greeting make a fast and fun Christmas card. I think I'll have to try using this recipe on other cards and see how they turn out.

This is another fast card that I made using My Digital Studio. The template was done for me, I just changed the punch and greeting, but everything else was already created. I love that these pre-created templates not only make fast cards, but also inspire me to make hand stamped cards using the same layout. I hope you are enjoying the card ideas so far. Stay tuned for more cards (hand-stamped and digital).

Another My Digital Studio Card


Here is another card as part of my Virtual stamping class this month. It is another card that I made with My Digital Studio, but the great thing is I could make it with my regular stamps and paper too!

My Digital Studio makes projects so easy! I love the way this card turned out, and it is digital so I could print a bunch of them and send them out for my Christmas card this year. I also like how I was able to create it without making a big mess. I think I'll re-create this one using real stamps now. This software works well to create digital projects, but it is also a great way to conceptualize the "regular" stamping projects that you want to make. I was able to play around with it and change colors and layers without wasting supplies.

First Digital Christmas Card

Here is the first of a bunch of cards that I am going to upload as part of my Virtual stamp class over the next week.

This is my first card that uses My Digital Studio. This is a great new paper crafting software that Stampin' Up! just came out with. You can make cards, calendars, digital scrapbooks, and more with this program. This card took less than 5 minutes to create. You can start from scratch or make a card that already uses a template. I just added the background pieces and the ribbon, the snowflake elements were already done for me.

If you'd like to find out more about My Digital Studio, or would like to get it for yourself, give me a call (or email). Remember, I'm still having my amazing sale and you could get this for 10-18% off if you act now.

There are still good discounts left....

Did you see my post yesterday about my amazing sale? Well, two people have taken advantage of it, but that means there are still great discounts left. Will you be one of the lucky customers to get more than 10% off? Who wants to get 18% off their order? Contact me now to place your order.

Virtual Stamp Class

3x3 Mini Envelope Pull-out Album



Here are some pictures of the final project that we made at my stamp club class. This is a fun pull-out mini album that is made from the 3x3 envelopes. The cover of the album is 11-1/2"x3-1/2" and it is scored at 8", 7-1/2", 4" and 3-1/2". I use 6-8 mini envelopes for the pockets. Fold the top of the envelope over, lick the glue, and stick it to the next envelope. The final envelope gets glued to the middle of the cover. Once that is done, all that is left is the fun part--decorating and adding photos. I used a Simply Scrappin' Kit to decorate. One kit is enough to do 8-10 albums. These would make fun gifts! They are the perfect size to throw in your purse or diaper bag so that you can show off pics of your kiddos. Let me know if you have any questions.

Dasher Bookmark Card




















This is another fun project that I made with my stamp club last week. The card features a detachable bookmark. The card stock is 11"x5-1/2", so you can get one of these cards from a regular sheet of card stock or two from a 12x12 sheet. I used the cutter kit to perforate the card at 2-1/2" for the bookmark. The designer series paper is from the Merry Moments collection, the stamps are from the under $10 section in the back of the catalog. I used the new shimmer paint from the Holiday Mini Catalog to add some sparkle and shine on the front of the card (it looks much better in person). If you have any questions about the bookmark card, let me know.

Birthday Calendars


Here is a picture of a fully stamped Birthday Calendar. You can order a blank Birthday Calendar for $7.95 and then decorate it however you want.

I just ordered 20 of these to make with some ladies at my church. It will be fun! They make great gifts. I love that they can be used year after year.

Christmas Tag Matchbox


This fun little box was made with the Matchbox Bigz XL die for my Big Shot machine. I cut the base of it with Real Red card stock and the top with the Merry Moments designer series paper.

I made some tags to go inside the box with the Delightful Decorations stamp set and the coordinating Ornament punch--I love how these two go together.

Water Bottle Topper

Last night I had a special class for the ladies who are in my stamp club. This was a free class as a Thank You for being part of the club. We made some fun projects that were different than the types of things I usually do at a hands-on class. We had a great time together. If you are interested in joining a stamp club, let me know. I'll be starting a new one in January.

This project is a water bottle topper. I love the little packets of Kool-Aid (for an 8oz bottle) or Crystal Light or Country Time Lemonade (for a 16oz bottle). The topper is 3" wide by 8-1/2" long. I scored the paper at 3" to make the pocket and then decorated it. I love how the scallop circle punch and 1-1/4" circle punch make a fun collar and reinforce the card stock where the topper sits on the water bottle.

I used basic black, pumpkin pie, and always artichoke for this project. The stamps are from the Pumpkin Patch set that is in the Holiday Mini Catalog. I used some always artichoke brads to secure the pocket.

Fall Tote


Here is a picture of the make-n-take project that I prepared for my last downline meeting. I promised a couple of weeks ago that I'd get this posted, and I guess it is better late than never. Things have been busy around here so my stamping blog was neglected a bit last month.

This tote is made with the Box#2 die for the Big Shot machine. The patterned paper is from the Autumn Traditions Designer Series Paper and the colors are Soft Suede, Crushed Curry, and Dusty Durango (all new In Colors). I just love how these 3 colors coordinate so well. The stamps are from the Autumn Splendor set that is in the Holiday Mini catalog. The ribbon is Dusty Durango polka dot ribbon. If you'd like to know how to make this tote, post a comment or email me. If you'd like to have a workshop in your home, I can teach you and your friends how to make this fun tote.

Pumpkin Trio


I love these pumpkin stamps from the Holiday Mini, the set it called Pumpkin Patch. This is another of the cards that we made at last week's stamp-a-stack class.

The colors are Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, and Basic Brown. The patterned paper is from the Cottage Wall Designer Series Paper collection. We stamped the greeting and then punched it out with the oval and scalloped oval punches. The Pumpkin Pie card stock has a textured pattern on it (sorry the picture doesn't do it justice) that we created with the big shot and the Texturz Plates.

Autumn Splendor from Holiday Mini


Here is one of the cards that we made at my stamp-a-stack class last week. We made cards that featured stamp sets from the Holiday Mini Catalog. If you haven't see the Holiday Mini, you need to--it is fabulous!!!

This cards uses the Autumn Splendor stamp set and 3 of this year's In Colors (Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango, and Soft Suede). At first I didn't love the Autumn Splendor stamp set. The mini doesn't do it justice. Once it is stamped though, it is gorgeous! Those who attended the class agreed! We used the Tearing Edge to tear the Crushed Curry card stock and the Falling Leaves stamp set for the greeting. To finish it all off, we tied a little bit of Soft Suede polka-dot ribbon around the card.
