Storybook Moments: You're the Most Awesome Fisherman!

If you're thinking ahead for Father's Day (June 15), then you'll enjoy today's card featuring a couple of the fun die cuts from the Storybook Moments Suite.

Stampin’ Up! Storybook Moments Father’s Day card by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #cardmaking#masculinecards p
When I was making the Black & Pink Tote (that I shared here), I discovered some tiny little "fish" shapes on my crafting space.

Stampin’ Up! 165240 Notes & Totes Dies fish shape shared by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #cardmaking

I thought, "where did they come from"?  Well, they came from some of the decorative shapes included the Notes & Totes Dies.  I thought they would pair well with the badger fishman die cut from the Storybook Moments Designer Series Paper.  

How'd She DO That? Awesome Fisherman card

  • Stamps: Storybook Friends, Trusty Tools
  • Paper:
    • Pool Party (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base) 
    • Basic White (4" x 5-1/4") 
    • Crumb Cake (1" x 2-1/4")
    • Early Espresso (scrap for "fish" die cuts from Notes & Totes Dies)
    • Storybook Moments Designer Series Paper (pre-cut shapes)
  • Ink:  Early Espresso, Pecan Pie, Pool Party, Old Olive Stampin' Blends Combo Pack
  • Other:  Blending Brushes, Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, Notes & Totes Dies, Stampin' Seal, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin' Dimensionals

 

Stampin’ Up! Storybook Moments Father’s Day card by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #cardmaking#masculinecards p

DOstamping Tips:

  • To create the landscape:
    • on white panel, using Storybook Friends, stamp the rocks image near the bottom with Early Espresso ink.
    • use Blending Brushes to add Pecan Pie ink for the "ground & rock fence", and Pool Party ink to create "water",
    • use Old Olive Stampin' Blends to color the "bushes" in the rock fence line.
  • Adhere Storybook Moments Designer Series Paper die cuts with Stampin' Dimensionals.
  • Adhere Notes & Totes "fish" die cuts with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

How cute is this?  My husband loves to fish, so this will be perfect for him for Father's Day or even his birthday.

Thomas The Train Card for Kaladin

Today I'm sharing an adorable Thomas The Train Punch Art Card.

Stampin’ Up! Thomas The Train DIY card by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #cardmaking #birthdaycards #punchart p

My youngest grandson, Kaladin celebrated his 2nd birthday last week.  He's totally obsessed with choo-choo trains right now.  So I had to make a Thomas The Train punch art card to go with his Thomas The Train themed birthday gifts.

Kaladin 2nd Birthday

How'd She DO That? Thomas The Train card

  • Paper:
    • Azure Afternoon (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base, 3-1/4" x 4" train, 2-3/8" circle-cut in half) 
    • Real Red (3/4" x 4")
    • Smoky Slate (3/4" x 3-3/4", 2-3/8" circle-face, scraps for three 3/4" circles from Round We Go Dies)
    • Basic White (4" x 5-1/4", large scrap for Mini Alphabet dies, scraps for five 3/4" circles from Round We Go Dies) 
    • Basic Black (two 2-3/8" Circles, scraps for three 3/4" circles from Round We Go Dies, 5/8" x 2" smoke stack)
  • Other:  Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, 2-3/8" Circle Punch, Round We Go Dies, Mini Alphabet Dies, Stampin' Seal, Glue Dots & Stampin' Dimensionals

 

Stampin’ Up! Thomas The Train DIY card by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #cardmaking #birthdaycards #punchart c

DOstamping Instructions:

  • For train:
    • Start by "building" the train from the bottom up onto the 3-1/4" x 4" Azure Afternoon train piece...Real Red strip, then Smoky Slate strip
    • For the top of the train, adhere blue half 2-3/8" circle to black 2-3/8" as shown, then adhere behind the top of the train
    • Adhere two 3/4" black circles where shown
    • Add name of the birthday child using Mini Alphabet Dies
    • Adhere entire train to white panel and then to folded card
  • For face:
    • Adhere Smoky Slate and Basic Black 2-3/8" circles together as shown
    • Mouth/nose = adhere a Smoky Slate half circle (nose) to upper portion of white 3/4" circle (so the bottom portion looks like a mouth/smile.  Then cut off the white circle to match the top of the nose
    • Cheeks = two Smoky Slate 3/4" circles
    • Eyes = two 3/4" white circles and 1/2" of a 3/4" circle (for each eye).  Use Paper Snips to cut out a notch in the flat side of the black half circle and adhere to a white circle.  Die cut a small partial circle out of a full 3/4" circle.  Then adhere on top to complete the eye.  Adhere to face with Stampin' Dimensionals.
    • Eyebrows = from black smoke stack piece, use Paper Snips to cut off both bottom corners
    • Before adhere face to card with Stampin' Dimensionals, attach to smoke stack first (option, cut top at an angle).

When you want to personalize your handmade projects, the Mini Alphabet Dies are the way to go.  That's because ALL of the letters of the alphabet are on just one die - even doubles of popular letters.  So with one pass, you have all the letters you need (and more) to personalize your cards & gifts.

#DOswts424 Stamping with the STARS Sketch Inspiration #dostamperSTARS #dostampinup #stampinup
#DOswts424 Stamping with the STARS Sketch Inspiration #dostamperSTARS #dostampinup #stampinup

I had a busy past couple of days.  One of them was for my grandson, Kaladin who turned one!  Which is why I'm late getting this post up for Saturday's sketch.  But what a fun day!  And in celebration of him, I made a card using the sketch.

Stampin’ Up! Little Monkey Bundle & FREE SAB Jungle Pals Dies by Dawn Olchefske for Stamping with the STARS sketch challenge #DOswts424 #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #DOstamperSTARS #birthdaycards p

Stampin’ Up! Little Monkey Bundle & FREE SAB Jungle Pals Dies by Dawn Olchefske for Stamping with the STARS sketch challenge #DOswts424 #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #DOstamperSTARS #birthdaycards cu

DOstamping Tips:

  • When using the FREE Sale-a-Bration Jungle Pals Dies (coming 1/4/2024), I recommend using Adhesive Sheets for the vine shape
  • Use scraps & Monkey Builder Punch to cut out pieces and assemble monkey using Glue Dots. 
  • Adhere down only the halfway first, so you can "hook" the tail onto the vine.  Then adhere head with Stampin' Dimensionals.
  • To stamp the sentiment, cover the word "hi" with tape.  Ink up with black ink and remove the tape before stamping.
  • Use Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to write the 3 dots.

Stamping with the STARS #400: Sketch for New Baby Kaladin!

As you could probably tell, I got behind in December.  That was due (in part) to a new addition to our family, this little guy, Kaladin. 

#DOstamping Kaladin

My daughter, Becky gave birth to a healthy 8 lb., 13oz. baby boy on December 9.  I can hardly believe it's already been a month.  Isn't he a cutie?

 

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Stamping with the STARS Inspiration Hop #DOswts400.  This week we're happy to share a Sketch Inspiration with you.

Stamping with the Stars #DOswts352 Sketch Challenge #dostamperSTARS #dostampinup #stampinup #sketch

This sketch is perfect for showcasing Designer Series Paper (DSP).  I originally had a Poinsettia Place DSP card all ready to go (it was one of the cards from my DOstamping Club).  But that DSP is now sold out.   

So I reached for another paper pack and chose the soon-to-be-retired 'Tis The Season 6"x6" Designer Series Paper

Quick and Cute Stampin' Up! Tis The Season DSP Christmas card for DOstamperSTARS #DOswts352 by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #cardmaking #stamping-PH

  • Stamps: Poinsettia Petals
  • Paper:
    • Shaded Spruce (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base and scrap for 1-1/2" circle punch) 
    • Whisper White (4" x 5-1/4") 
    • Silver Foil (scrap for JOY die cut)
    • 'Tis the Season 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (2-1/2" x 5-1/4")
  • Ink:  Shaded Spruce
  • Other:   Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, Joy Dies, Adhesive Sheets, Basic Rhinestone Jewels, Stampin' Seal & Stampin' Dimensionals

 

Quick and Cute Stampin' Up! Tis The Season DSP Christmas card for DOstamperSTARS #DOswts352 by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #cardmaking #stamping (holly)

DOstamping Tips:

  • Mix & match different patterns - there are 24 different patterns to choose from (see patterns below).
  • For the "Joy" die cut - adhere a scrap piece of Silver Foil to a piece of Adhesive Sheets (love these).  Then die cut, peel and stick!
  • Mix & match different jewels and gems too.

Max Quick and Cute Stampin' Up! Tis The Season DSP Christmas card for DOstamperSTARS #DOswts352 by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #cardmaking #stamping -(Max)

I had some helpers this morning, my grandsons Max (13) and Sam (11). 

It's been awhile since they have crafted with me.  Partly because they are older and party due to social distancing.  There were doing hybrid learning for school, so we had seen them for a while.  But with all schools in MN doing long-distance learning for the past few weeks, it's safer to see them. 

Max's card is above and Sam's card is below.  They did a fabulous job!

Sam Quick and Cute Stampin' Up! Tis The Season DSP Christmas card for DOstamperSTARS #DOswts352 by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #cardmaking #stamping -(Sam)
It was SO much fun crafting with them - it made my heart happy!

See below for shopping links for the items we used to make today's cards.  For retired items, you can shop for them HERE.

Thank you for shopping with me!

Enjoy~Dawn O
