SQC: More Merry Mini Punch Note Cards & Envelope Liner

Welcome to the final DOcelebration - Day#5!  I couldn't wait to make some Holiday Note Cards in the fashion of yesterday's Super Quick & Cute cards.  I'm lovin' the way they turned out.  Take a look...

Are these 5" x 3-1/2" Note Cards cute or what?  Did you notice the envelopes?  What's so special about them?

  • Stampin' Up! now carries a Crumb Cake Notecard Envelope (131528) - yes, sized to fit a 5" x 3-1/2" card.  Love it!
  • I lined the envelope with the new Envelope Liner Framelits (132172), from the Holiday Catalog.  
    • Comes with 3 framelits to fit envelopes for this size card, a 3" x 3" card and a 5-1/2" x 4-1/4" card
    • I saved paper and only lined the portion of the envelope that is shown. Which only requires a 2" x 6" piece of DSP.  Ah...lovin' it!

Do you send Holiday Cards?  With a SQC card design like this, I can see my Holiday Cards getting done early this year - woohoo!

Enjoy~Dawn O

Welcome to Day #4 DOcelebration!  Sometimes you need a Super Quick & Cute card (SQC).  Does this ever happen to you?  You're almost ready to head out the door and you realize you don't have a card.  You just can't bring yourself to buy one, but you need a card now!

Those are the times I grab my stash of Stampin' Up! Note Cards & Envelopes, scraps of pattern paper and mini punches.

QC Card: Papillion Potpourri - 3 Ways

Welcome to DOcelebration Day #3!  Today's cards feature Stampin' Up!'s early-release September Special - Butterfly Bundle.  The original card that inspired today's Quick & Cute Papillion Potpourri card trio was a swap I received from my friend and fellow demonstrator Natalie Travis.  

#quickandcute card using Papillion Potpourri, Bitty Butterfly, Butterfly Bundle, Trust God, share by DOstamping, Dawn Olchefske, Stampin' Up! demonstrator

Natalie's card was featured at my Card Buffet class last month.  There were a few leftover packets.  When that happens, I like to challenge myself to use the exact same supplies to create other layouts.

Card #1: Special Work of Art (created by Natalie)

Card #2: Live Simply

Card #3: God is Love 

OK - that was fun creating these cards from the same supplies.  I'll have to challenge myself to do that more often.  

Which card is your favorite?

Dawn's 10 Yr Anniversary Weekend & DOcelebration Mystery Hostess Party!

Wasn't it nice of Stampin' Up! to have a FREE SHIPPING weekend to celebrate my 10 yr anniversary!?  

10-year-Pin-sm     SUFreeShippingDO

Just kidding.  Though, not about 10 years.  It's hard to believe how far I've come since I purchased my Stampin' Up! starter kit.  I never intended to run it as a business.  Just wanted to save a little money on my new passion, stamping!  Maybe have a party here or there.  I never dreamed it would be this big.  That is, not until 3 years ago, when I started to treat my little stamping blog seriously.  Who knew it could be this big and successful?  Well, with a dream, goals, hard work and passion, plus awesome customers and DOstamperSTARS...it's possible!  Thank you!

Looking forward to the next 10 years!

If you look close, you can see some of the details on the card.  Including a Shimmer Mist Window again.  I still had the supplies out from the How'd She DO That? Video I shared last week on the Shimmer Mist Technique.  But instead of the rectangle template made with the square punch, I made an Oval Window Template obviously made with the new Ovals Collection Framelits!  I'm just giddy over the OVALS!! 

I hope you enjoyed today's 2013 Spring Catalog and Sale-a-Bration Sneak Peek Card~Dawn O

DOstamping Celebration Day#1: Holiday Wreath Interlocking Card & Give-a-Way

We kick off our DOstamping Celebration Day #1 with a fun Interlocking Floral Frames Wreath Card & Video

This suprisingly easy and fun interlocking card was shared by my friend Julie Davison.  Her card was a summer floral card, but I switched it up for the holidays.  Thanks for your inspiration Julie!
