September Stamp of the Month Club

Yes, you read correctly.  I am finally posting my ever so cool Stamp of the Month Cards from September.  This is a Club that my friend Karina organizes. 

Each month you get a stamp set and three coordinating cards.

You will likely notice that my cards to do not match the stamp and that is because I already had the stamp set offered, so I got to choose another instead.  YAY!

My favorite is the cupcake one!  Surprised?  Of course not, everyone knows I LOVE cupcake things!

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Stamp of the Month Club

Here are my June cards from Stamp of the Month club offered by my friend Karina.

If you look closely you will no doubt wonder how the cards were made with the Bootiful Occaisions stamp set shown here.  

Well, the cards for this month came from another stamp set, but I really did not want it, so Karina let me switch out the stamp set.

Now, I have some fishy cards to "gift" away : )

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

For Stamp of the Month Club this month Karina chose the Wishes Your Way stamp set and a small pinwheel die.

These are the cards that we got.

I think the pinwheel will be BIG FUN (as my son wound say)!

December Calendar

For the December calendar block I used Early Espresso and Very Vanilla card stock from Stampin' Up, and coordinated it with the Candlelight Christmas Designer Series paper also from Stampin' Up. 

The stamped image is from the Year-Round Cheer stamp set.

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

November Calendar

Now, I know that Thanksgiving is in October here in Canada, but I like this image and the idea of giving thanks, so I am going to rationalize that it is okay to use this image for November.

The card stock is Sahara Sand, Cajun Craze, and Whisper White from Stampin' Up.  The Designer Series Paper is from the Bountiful Harvest collection from Stampin' Up in the fall 2012 mini catalogue.

The image is of course from the Year-Round Cheer stamp set, and the buttons were some left overs, but I thought that they were pretty : )

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

October Calendar

For the Halloween block I have used Sahara Sand, Basic Black, and Whisper White card stock from Stampin' Up, and the black cat Designer Series Paper is from the Halloween line a couple of years ago (you know I won't throw it out if it's still useable).  

The image is from the Year-Round Cheer stamp set.

The brads in the corner are left overs from something.  The stamp set is from the Year-Round Cheer stamp set.

Stamp of the Month Club

I went to use this stamp set last night and realized that I had not yet showed it for Stamp of the Month Club!

This is the March Stamp of the Month Club offered by my friend Karina.

Each month we choose a stamp set and then get three cards made with it for ideas of how to use the stamp set.  It's pretty FUN!

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

February Stamp of the Month Club

Here is my latest set of the Stamp of the Month Club offered by Karina.

This stamp set is called Decorate a Daisy.

I believe that secretly Karina is trying to turn me into a flower person (I'm not really one, and they all die on me - could be that they need water and food?).

I do like this set, and I think I will try to use it in the next few days just to try it out!

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

January Stamp of the Month Club

Somehow this month has been super hectic and I forgot to post the Stamp of the Month cards.

This is a subscription I get through Karina.  Each month we get a stamp set and three completed cards.  I think I will make a card with this set tonight....

For this month the stamp set was Snowflake Soiree.

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

The card base here is Sahara Sand, Layered with Pacific Point, Whisper White all from Stampin Up.

Stamp of the Month Club

This month I chose Chock full of Cheer for my Stamp of the Month Club stamp set.

The cards shown and made by Karina are actually from the Scentsational Season stamp set (but I already had that one).  My favorite is the gingerbread cookies on the pan!

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Stamp of the Month

Wow!  It's already November.  Where does the time go???  I feel so old when I ask that question...

For this month I chose the Zoo Review Stamp Set.  This is one my son has been asking me got get for some time, because of course he loves the animals on it.

I LOVE Stamp of the Month Club.  Each month you pick a stamp set and Karina designs three cards to coordinate with the stamp set so that you get some ideas of things you can do with this stamp set.  If you are interested in this club give her a shout, I'm know she'd love to hear from you!

Hope this inspires your own creativity...
