Sharon Fincham’s May 2024 Shoebox Event

May 13, 2024 / Leave a comment

With Mother’s Day and Father’s Day right around the corner, Sharon designed cards that we could use for both. For Father’s Day she used a Stampin’ Up! set of dies- ‘Trusty Tools’ that cut out tools! She had pieces for a toolbox so we could slide the tools in the box and then glue it to the shiny silver embossed background! Our part was easy in putting everything in place. Her part would have been hard with making the little tools! Thank you, Sharon!

I saved two of the tools Sharon had in our kits for the inside and used ‘Guy Greetings’ for a fun saying. The paint brush swirl and the ‘you are extraordinary’ are in the ‘Beautiful Blizzard’ stamp set from years ago.

Another stamp from the Bake Sale list! You should just delete that tab.

You’re probably right. Or maybe I should make a card with each of the products and offer the product with a card for sale to see if that would market the stamp set.

For the second card, Sharon designed a fun gate fold with a piggly wiggly!!

I colored him too dark at Sharon’s house so when I got home I tried to lighten him with the blender pen but the ink ran outside the lines on the left, so then I had to find more flowers like Sharon had for the crown to hide my goof. We have our ways of fixing mistakes!

I will send it to my daughter with the movie “Charlotte’s Web”.

The heart is from the ‘Pictogram Punches’ stamp set. I loved how it had a heart in the heart which went so well with the greeting which is from the ‘Places In The Heart’ stamp set.

Sharon had a third card for us – peak performer that she is….. with products from Stampin’ Up! The designer series paper is ‘Meandering Meadows’ and the die is ‘Garden Meadows’ die.

The Happy Mother’s Day and little rose bud are in the ‘Tea Together’ stamp set.

The jewels really sparkle!

They are Swarovski crystals I purchased at the Scrapbook Expo years ago. I save them for very special cards like this one. This year’s expo in Denver is Friday May 17-18th.

Thanks for stopping by!

SAL, Smile A Little – summer is coming!

Riddle of the day:

Question: I can only live where there is light but I die if the light shines on me. What am I?

Answer: A Shadow!

Joy Meadows June 2023 Shoebox Event & Get Well Card

What?! Two posts in one week? Are you leaving again soon?

Not soon, Sal, but we are having a shoebox event next Tuesday with Christine as our hostess and it seemed wise not to get too far behind in my scrapbooking of cards!

Do you think anyone follows you anymore?

Well, Sal, on Facebook we call people who follow posts but never comment – stalkers- so maybe I have a few of those left. I know I use the blog frequently for recipes and sometimes to remind myself that I can do this on those days when the mojo just isn’t there.

Enough of that – let’s look at this card and the fun products I used. I saw the faith, hope, love die with daisies and said “That is my style”! It is from inloveartshop.com

Hello?! We lost you…

Oops, sorry, I went to verify the link and got lost looking at their site! This die is currently still available for $4.99. It is called ‘Inlovearts Sunflower with “Love, Faith, Hope” Word Cutting Dies’.

Recipe:

Base: Daffodil Delight 5 1/2 X 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4
Layer 1 (X2): Basic White 3 7/8 X 5 3/8, use Corner Rounder Punch on each corner
- For the inside layer use Delicate Details stamp set for the bottom (it sort of matches the black die cut edges on front)
- Use Thoughts & Prayers for the greeting
- Use His Love for the praying hands
Layer 2: Basic Black 4 X 5 1/2, Place a dryer sheet under the paper and die cut with Ornate Layers Die
Words & Flowers: Basic White 4 X 4 1/2 for 1 die cut – I used 3 for extra pop of the words
Daisies on Top: Basic White 6 X 2, punch 3 daisies with small daisy punch
Middle of the flowers: Daffodil Delight, 2 1/2 X 1, cut the three middles with the die in the set; note: I left the die intact and did not separate the circles from the flowers
- Use Places In The Heart stamp set for the little dots on the middles
- Sponge the edges with Crushed Curry, a little heavy on one side
Embellish with the clear raindrop dots to look like morning dew

So you used the new die set and the ornate layers die and 4 stamp sets?

And two punches, Sal, a corner punch and a small daisy punch. What fun to not be tied to using just the current products. I knew this day would come and I am loving it! Now let’s look at what Joy had for us at her shoebox event; you will be thrilled!
