It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  This week we're having a "showCASE" challenge.  

  DSC#305-Update

For todays, my eye focused in on the cute embellishment in the lower left corner, so that's what I'm casing!

Stampin' Up! Snow is Glistening Sponge Dauber Trick card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC305 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #papercrafting #snowisglistening #snowflakeshowcase

Talk about a card that is simple, but wow...this one fits the bill.  With it's easy Sponge Dauber Trick (see below tips) - you'll get stunning results in no time at all

My Stamping Club Members couldn't get enough of it.  I heard surprised oohs, aahs and wows throughout the night.  Made me smile.  It's always fun to learn a new stamping technique.  But even more fun when it's so easy that you can go home and do it yourself!

How'd She DO That? Sponge Dauber Tree card:

  • Stamps: Snow is Glistening (avail until 11/30)
  • Paper:
    • Real Red (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base, scrap for 1-3/8" scallop circle punch) 
    • Whisper White (4" x 5-1/4", scrap for 1-1/4" circle punch)
  • Ink: Real Red, Tuxedo Black Memento
  • Other:  1-1/4" Circle Punch, 1-3/8" Scallop Circle Punch, Real Red 3/8" Mixed Satin ribbon, Snowflake Trinkets (avail until 11/30), Sponge Dauber, Mini Stampin' Dimensionals
  • Tip:  see below

Tips for creating multi-colored tree with a Sponge Dauber:

  1. Ink of tree image with Real Red ink
  2. Before stamping, add black ink with Sponge Dauber to the larger snowflakes
  3. Breath on stamp to remoisten
  4. Stamp on 4" x 5-1/4" Whisper White Panel
  5. Then - ooh and aah!

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #301: Beautiful Blizzard with Joyous Noel

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  This week we're having a "showCASE" challenge.  

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC301 showCASE 2018 Holiday Catalog pg 36 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #diy

I'm excited for this week's showCASE challenge.  Why...because I really like the layout of this card in the Holiday Catalog and I thought it could be applied to a lot of different Designer Series Papers.  Here's my take on it... 

Stampin' Up! Beautiful Blizzard Bundle card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC301 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #diy #papercrafting #beautifulblizzard #christmascards

With the catalog inspiration, this card came together very quickly (gotta love that?).  I actually chose the snowflake pattern from the Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper first, then searched for a stamp set that would complement it.  I didn't have to search too far, as the Beautiful Blizzard Bundle was the perfect choice.

How'd She DO That? tips for Beautiful Blizzard card:

  1. Stamps: Beautiful Blizzard
  2. Paper:
    • Sahara Sand (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base) 
    • Whisper White (./4" x 3-1/2" banner)
    • Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper (4" x 5-1/4", 3/4" x 4-1/2")
    • Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper (scraps for snowflakes)
  3. Ink: Tranquil Tide
  4. Other:  Big Shot, Precision Base Plate, Blizzard Thinlit Die, 3/16" Braided Linen Trim, Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets & Stampin' Dimensionals
  5. Tip:  For the snowflakes
    • I cut a 2" x 4" piece of Glimmer Paper and Multipurpose Adhesive sheets and stuck them together.
    • Placed it near one end of the die and cut several snowflakes.  Then I had a few choices of sizes to select from.  NOTE:  this die cuts lots of snowflakes, see below for the sizes.
    • The Blizzard Die definitely required the Precision Base Plate.  For my Big Shot, I added a "shim" of folded copy paper too.

Stampin' Up! Beautiful Blizzard Bundle card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC301 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #diy #papercrafting #beautifulblizzard #christmascards

I can't wait to try this layout with other Designer Series Papers.  If you're looking for quick and cute cards, definitely give this one a try!

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #296: Dashing Deer Bundle

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  This week we're having a "showCASE" challenge.  

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC296 showCASE Annual Catalog pg 17 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #diy

Stampin' Up! Dashing Deer Bundle card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC296 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #diy #papercrafting #christmascards #dashingdeer

I have to admit...I am running behind today and just finished this card a few minutes ago.  Given that, I love the way it turned out and see myself making a few of these for some of my holiday cards this year! 

The Detailed Deer Thinlits Dies made it easy and I love the way it matches one of the patterns from the Joyous Noel Designer Series Paper with it's little touches of copper stars and white deers..

How'd She DO That? tips for Dashing Deer QC card:

  1. Stamps: Dashing Deer
  2. Paper:
    • Granite Gray (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base) 
    • Whisper  White (scrap for 2-7/8" Stitched Shapes circle) 
    • Joyous Noel 6x6 Glimmer Paper (scrap for deer)
    • Joyous Noel Designer Series Paper (1" x 5-1/2")
  3. Ink: Basic Gray
  4. Other:  Big Shot, Precision Base Place, Detailed Deer Thinlits Dies,  Tea Room Ribbon Combo, Galvanized Buttons, Glue Dots & Mini Stampin' Dimensionals
  5. Shopping Links:  See below for a full supply list with links to shop online

Stampin' Up! Dashing Deer Bundle card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC296 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #diy #papercrafting #christmascards #dashingdeer

I have to mention - the Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper cut beautifully with the Big Shot Precision Plate, it popped right out!

I think this is going to be a versatile set, as some of the deer dies could be used for masculine cards too (see photo below).  With that kind of versatility, you'll be wanting to add the Dashing Deer Bundle to your shopping bag today!   

Enjoy~Dawn O

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #291: Stylish Christmas

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  This week we're having a "showCASE" challenge.  

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #291 - showCASE #dostamping

This sample from Stampin' Up!'s 2018-2019 Annual Catalog caught my eye right away.  Love the colors and the layout.  Though, I went a different direction with Christmas colors, as I chose to use the Stylish Christmas stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Stylish Christmas card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC291 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #rubberstamping #papercrafting #christmascards

This Stylish Christmas stamp set caught my eye right away, as I love Poinsettias!  I was excited to crack open the stamp set and put ink to it. 

Plus I got to use the new Shaded Spruce ink pad.  I was hesitant to use it as I thought it would be too dark.  But as it turns out - I like it dark.  Does that happen to you?  You get something in your head that you think you might not like it and then you finally use it and you fall in love?

How'd She DO That? tips for Stylish Christmas card:

  1. Stamps: Stylish Crhistmas
  2. Paper:
    • Real Red (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base) 
    • Whisper White (5-3/8" x 2-3/8", 1" x 3-1/2")
    • Under the Mistletoe Designer Series Paper (4" x 1/2")
  3. Ink: Real Red, NEW Spruce Shade
  4. Other:  Big Shot, Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies (largest square), Whisper White Baker's Twine, Red Rhinestone Jewels & Stampin' Dimensionals
  5. Shopping Links:  See below for a full supply list with links to shop online

Stampin' Up! Stylish Christmas card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC291 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #rubberstamping #papercrafting #christmascards

For the showCASE project - I noticed some stitching at the top, which really caught my eye.  As I don't own a sewing machine, I came up with an alternate way to add some stitching dimension - using the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies.  I was pleased with the results!

To create a single "stitched" line"

  • Align largest square die (Stitched Shapes Framlites) to meet the top of the 5-3/8" x 2-3/8" piece off Whisper White. 
  • ONLY run through the Big Shot so the top is "cut" and stop before it cuts the bottom of the die. 
  • Then run backwards to remove the die and viola - a stitched line!

Stampin' Up! Stylish Christmas card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC291 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #rubberstamping #papercrafting #christmascards

This card came together nicely.  I think I'll be doing a few of these for my holiday cards this year!

If you love poinsettias like I do, then you'll love the Styish Christmas stamp set.  Get a head start on your holiday cards and add it to your shopping bag today.

Enjoy~Dawn O

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #286: Very Vintage Host Set & Darling Label Punch Box

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  This week we're having a "showCASE" challenge.   

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC286 showCASE Annual Catalog pg 115 #dostamping #stampinup #handmade #cardmaking #stamping #diy
For this week's Thursday Challenge, my eye was drawn to the stamping in the opposite corners.  So that is what I chose for my showCASE card.  

Stampin' Up! Very Vintage Host set and Darling Label Punch card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC286 #dostamping #stampinup #cardmaking  #rubberstamping #papercrafting #stampinrewards #birthdaycards #veryvintage

I chose the Very Vintage set that includes a flower "bunch" and stamped them with Rich Razzleberry ink. Then with the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush, I lightly blended the ink on just the flowers.  In real life the flowers look gorgeous!

How'd She DO That? tips for Very Vintage card:

  1. Stamps: Very Vintage (free with $150 order)
  2. Paper:
    • Rich Razzleberry (11" x 4-1/4" card base)
    • Very Vanilla (4" x 5-1/4" and scrap for punching
  3. Ink: Rich Razzleberry, Tuxedo Black Memento
  4. Other:  Darling Label Punch Box, Basic Black Solid Twine, Clear Wink of Stella Brush, Share What You Love Artisan Pearls & Stampin' Dimensionals.
  5. Tip:  See below
  6. Shopping Links:  See below for a full supply list with links to shop online

Stampin' Up! Very Vintage Host set and Darling Label Punch card by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #DSC286 #dostamping #stampinup #cardmaking  #rubberstamping #papercrafting #stampinrewards #birthdaycards #veryvintage

I was so glad I ordered the Darling Label Punch Box, as I hadn't noticed that it matched an image in the Very Vintage Stampin' Rewards set.  Having said that, I hadn't planned to use it.  But I made a stamping boo boo.  When I stamped the bee image on the stamped panel, I think I overinked it, as it was way too dark.  So I needed to cover it up.  The Darling Label Punch to the rescue.

  • Stamp matching punch "outline" image first, then the bee image. 
  • Brush on Wink of Stella Glitter Brush on the wings. 
  • Then punched out with the Darling Label Punch
  • A Share What You Love Artisan Pearl was the perfect finishing touch!  

The moral of the story is...if you you're planning on redeeming your rewards for the Very Vintage stamp set, I recommend getting the Darling Label Punch Box too!  Add it to your shopping bag today!  

How do you get a FREE Stampin' Rewards (Host) set?  Good question.  Place an order of $150 or more and you can choose from a selection of stamp sets, just for you, including Very Vintage!

Enjoy~Dawn O

ShowCASE Sunday: Ready For Christmas & Stitched Felt Embellishments

When I first saw the Stampin' Up! 2017 Holiday Catalog,  I was drawn to the pizza box sample on pg 7.  I immediately thought I could use it as inspiration for  a card.  So I'm very  happy that it's our Sunday ShowCASE pick for this week.  Here's our inspiration...

My eye was specifically drawn to the way the Stitched Felt Embellishment was used on the sample.  I've been itchin' to use these cute embellishments and today was the perfect chance to do that.  Plus, they are my VIP Host Code Gift for October (free with a $65 or more online order).  Here's my quick & cute card...
