Gorgeous Fall Leaves

The leaves around here are absolutely gorgeous right now so I thought I would try a new-to-me technique and get creative. All you need to try this yourself is a baby wipe, some re-inkers, and a solid image stamp. Fold the baby wipe to make four layers and place it on a paper plate. Starting with the darkest re-inker color, randomly drop a few drops on the baby wipe followed by 2-3 more colors. Then use the inked baby wipe as your ink pad. So fun!!

I used the Gently Falling stamp set with Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive and Daffodil Delight inkFor the second card I stamped the outline stamp with Early Espresso but I liked the leaves on the first card without the outline.

A little help from a friend

Sometimes we all need a little help with creativity and our Idea Book & Catalog is a great resource for inspiration. For this card I used the design of the card shown on page 12 which uses the Hostess Stamp Set Simply Soft. My card changes up the colors and uses the  Raining Flowers Stamp Set from page 111.

If you don't have your own copy of the Idea Book & Catalog and would like one... give me a call to see how you can receive one for FREE!

Introducing Sweet Pressed Cookie Stamps!




Sales period: October 1, 2011 - January 3, 2012
Sweet Pressed Cookie Stamps are a brand-new product that will appeal to crafters and non-crafters, alike--not to mention kids!
The easy-to-use cookie stamp has a solid wood handle with three interchangeable stamp images: a heart, a jack-o-lantern, and a snowflake.
Just make your favorite shortbread cookie dough (or one of the two included recipes) and stamp away! Create beautiful, hand-stamped cookies in a flash. The stamp images are completely food-safe and child-friendly. 

I made a batch, using one of the included recipes, to take to the Christmas Stamp-A-Stack today...
 And here are some packaged for the ladies to take homeI used the Warmest of Wishes hostess set available in the Holiday Mini Catalog to make the tags and tied them on with Baker's Twine.
Mmmmmm...shortbread. These cookies were really fun to make. Any shortbread or no-rise cookie recipe will work best with these stamps and Stampin' Up! includes 2 tested recipes to get you started. A few tips:
  • The dough needs to be soft but not sticky, chill if needed
  • At first, I rolled out the dough, stamped it then cut with a round biscuit cutter (actually, I used a canning jar). This resulted in somewhat thinner cookies than I was looking for so I followed the instructions to form a round ball of dough, placed the ball on the cookie sheet and flattened with the stamp. To clean up the edges, I used the jar on these also. Bingo - thicker cookies
  • I dusted the snowflake and jack-o-lantern stamps with flour before pressing to help prevent sticking. The heart stamp has thinner groves and I found that spraying it with cooking oil spray worked best
I can't wait to see what shapes they come out with next!
