Scrap buster sunburst card

 I got the inspiration for this card from one that my friend Rose gave to me.  It was made using completely different colours but the technique is the same.  You can find your creative inspiration anywhere!  I kind of want to start making Christmas cards but September seems too early.  So I'm using the scraps from this month's Super Stamp Saturday kit.  You start with a wedge about 1" wide and a bit over 4" long.  Then you just keep adding wedges till you're happy.  Then I added some glitter washi tape. 😁


You can see the video of how I made it here https://www.facebook.com/stampingwithrenee/videos/499879468650147

Bendy card fun fold

I've seen lots of bendy card fun folds but this one is my current favourite.  It's been quite popular in the SU team I'm part of.  First Rose made one with the All Bundled Up stamp set and then Denise make one with the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set.  I used the By My Side stamp set for my bendy card.  You can use just about any stamp set!  I liked mixing 3 different Designer Series Papers on this card.  They seemed to work well together - what do you think?  To see how I made it, go to my FB page www.facebook.com/stampingwithrenee




Here are the measurements:

Old Olive base: 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" scored at 2-3/4"

Blackberry Bliss 6-1/2" x 1" scored at 1/2" on both ends Pool party: 2" x 4-1/2" scored at 1/2", 2-1/4" and 4" DSP (I used the Design a Dream host set and Hues of Happiness):

Christmas Scottie bundle

 I love stamps that have punches to go with them.  It makes it so easy to create!  So this Scottie set was on my wish list since the holiday catalogue came out.  It has a very Christmasy feel but I wasn't quite ready for Christmas cards.  So I present to you Fall Scotties!

Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper

Are we ready for Autumn?  I'm not ready to let go of summer yet.  So this is a post about beautiful colours but not Autumn yet. 😁 The Rustic Harvest DSP reminds me of my Granny.  She loved these colours!  We're using this paper for September's Super Stamp Saturday.  So I sat down to design my card and made a few before I settled on the one I will teach.  This one is a favourite from my designing session.  I featured it in my FB live video this morning.  Head over here www.facebook.com/stampingwithrenee to see how I made it.  






Isn't this paper cozy and gorgeous!  Order yours here https://www.stampinup.ca/products/rustic-harvest-12-x-12-30-5-x-30-5-cm-designer-series-paper
