WOW! Lots of Stampin' Up! Samples

Today I'm sharing lots of Stampin' Up! Samples.  These were from my INKredible Impressions Fall Fest event... so many talented demonstrators.










































November Monthly Swaps: Watercolor Background

Every month I participate in a monthly swap with my demonstrator friends.  For November our theme was techniques.  I chose to make a watercolor background card.  I used a clear block direct to ink pad technique.  Using the clear block "I", I put the top of the block on Marina Mist, the middle on Pool Party and the end of the block on Soft Sky.  Then I spritzed the block ink side up with water and then stamped on the paper.  Spritzing with water allows the ink colors to blend.



I decided to make a small 4 x 4 card and with the scraps, I threw together the card below.



Fall Monthly Swap... 3D Pumpkin

This was my sample for my monthly Fall Swap.  I made the pumpkin by layering Very Vanilla card stock cut into oval pieces.  I also ran the pieces of card stock through the Woodgrain  Embossing folder to give the pumpkin texture.

Small leaf from Swirly Scribbles
Used Blossom Builder punch to create pumpkin stump

I cut a small strip of card stock 3/4" wide and used it to sponge the background with Crumb Cake ink to create the fence look.
