Stampin' Up! Best Year Ever Easel Calendar

This is another project from my January Stamping Class.  I made this Easel Calendar using Stampin' Up! Lost Lagoon card stock and my FREE pack of "Best Year Ever" Designer Series Paper (DSP).  You can get this DSP FREE during Sale-A-Bration.  FREE items for every $50 you spend.


I made this easel calendar the perfect size to fit in a regular sized envelope for ease of mailing.

Technique Tuesday: Bargello Technique

This is a technique you don't see often... Bargello Technique.  As I was posting this 6x6 technique card I wondered why it was called "Bargello Technique".  I Googled it...  Bargello is a type of needlepoint embroidery consisting of upright flat stitches laid in a mathematical pattern to create motifs.  The name originates from a series of chairs found in the Bargello Palace in Florence.  I guess that makes sense when you see the pattern.





Paint Chip Inspiration #3: Valentine's Day Card

I made this Valentine's Day card a few years ago for one of my classes.  I used a paint chip and a Stampin' Up! heart Punch.  This is a quick and simple project.



Color Combo Challenge #29: Pacific Point, So Saffron, Baked Brown Sugar

This Color Combo was definitely a challenge for me.  I was never a fan of the color Pacific Point, but I have to admit that it goes nicely with Baked Brown Sugar and is nicely complimented by the softness of So Saffron.
