Recently I've been working on my Breast Cancer Thank You cards for the people that donated money to the Race for the Cure last weekend. I made these simple cards using the breast cancer stamps, the pink pirouette striped ribbon and the texturz plates. I LOVE how they turned out and I hope the people receiving them enjoy them!

Cameron was working on Birthday Thank You's and he made this really cool one using my tools set. Can you see what he did? Click on the photo to see it larger. He cut a piece of paper to be some wood, and then he put a brad in it, for a screw, and then put the screwdriver right up to the brad. SO CREATIVE!! And I didn't give him the idea either..he just went with it! So creative...I love it! That's my Cameron!

Mother's Day Scrap Pages!

2009-05-20T21:15:00.000-07:00

Part of the gift I gave my mom was some scrapbook pages of the Race for the Cure that we did together. Yes, I went and got 1 hour photo and scrapbooked them THAT NIGHT in order to have them for the next day...since the race was the day before..but I kept it simple so it was fun! Here's the pages I made using some great Stampin' Up! paper, ribbons the Breast Cancer Stamp set of course!

Kyler's ScrapBook Pages

2009-04-06T12:53:00.000-07:00

I used the new Choo Choo set to make this page from Kyler's first birthday! It's such a fun set and a must-have with 3 boys!

This was a favorite outfit of mine that Kyler wore as a baby...so I had to scrap it with this frog paper!!

Using up some retired goodies from SU!...the ABC wheel on cardstock, the apples paper and the bold brights buttons...even the crayon kids baby! Sometimes its fun to use the oldies but goodies!!

I had one more piece from the baby boy scrappin kit so I used it with some really little pictures of my baby who is almost THREE!!!

Scrappin Shares

2009-04-06T12:48:00.000-07:00

I scrapped our family trip to Yosemite last summer. Scott hiked Half Dome with my Dad and saw a bear on the way...hence the bear sighting page!!

I love Stampin' Up!'s DSP...this page of Dallyn's candids was quick and easy with this paper!

I'm catching up on Kyler's baby book...here are some photos of him taking his first steps!

I used my new Jumbo Grommets from the Occasions Mini catalog! Here is a close up!

Mother Daughter Stamping

2009-04-06T11:38:00.000-07:00

Kaylie and I stamped together this weekend! Look at this great card she made! She used my new three flower punch and my new Cheep Talk set. She's so talented!

Here is another card she made..we had a challenge to use my new oval punch and oval all stamp set and this is the card she came up with!

I finally started using my 6 by 6 paper stacks from the hostess plan last year. I also used a rub-on on the new jumbo brads!! Fun stuff!

This page is a few years behind! This is Kyler with his grandparents and siblings when he was a little baby! I finally scrapped it this weekend. I'm glad to have his baby book almost done!

Stampin' Shares

2009-03-30T19:44:00.000-07:00

I need a few sympathy cards so I mounted my new Thoughts & Prayers stamp set and enjoyed making a few of these..seems like I always need a lot of these cards lately!

Then I mounted my new Oval All stamp set and used my new oval scallop punch! Both fun new goodies from the Occasions Mini Catty!

I love using the texturz plates on the white cardstock..its just so fun!

Sense of Time

2009-03-30T19:40:00.000-07:00

Here are some cards I made using the new Sense of Time set from the Occasions Mini..along with the "To the Nines" textured cardstock. I can imagine these are going to make great Father's Day type cards with just a little change of the greeting!!

Weekend fun!

2009-03-04T16:38:00.000-08:00

So this past weekend I played with my new tools stamp set and the new texturz plates. Don't you love how it looks like wood??

Another card I made for my father-in-law using the Totally Tools set. Both cards use the To the Nines paper!

There is an 'Angels Among Us" event at church next week. I was asked to help design the invitations...here they are! Fun and easy for making a LOT of cards!

March Stamp Club

2009-03-04T16:26:00.000-08:00

This is our card for March's Stamp Club. It uses the new Jumbo Brads in chocolate chip, the new texturz plates and the big shot top note die of course!
The stamp set is the Yummy set that is part of the Sale-A-Bration special and the flower stamps are from Polka Dot Punches.

This is the card stamped by Karen Spencer that gave me the inspiration for my card! Isn't this card beautiful? I don't have the Petal Pizzaz set so I improvised with what I do have!

Another card for club..this one uses the new Cheep Talk set, the Texturz plates and the eyelet border punch. Love these colors!

This is my last club card..uses the new Hoppy Day set and the SAB papers and ribbon. Email me if you have questions..so cute..love the spring colors!

Youth Class

2009-02-26T10:39:00.000-08:00

These photos were taken with natural light and they are a bit washed out! But this weekend I'm teaching a youth class at church for 12-18 year olds and these are the cards I'm teaching.

Wanted them to get to try out the new Texturz Plates and the ink on stamps technique..plus punches! =)

This is a fun teen style set with the distressing tool and some more fun punches!

I have two versions of this baja breeze monochromatic card and one uses the eyelet border punch and one uses the scallop border punch and different DSP's.

Lastly I wanted them to try their hand at cutting out with the Big Shot and the top Note Die. I only have 50 minutes for the class I had to keep it pretty easy! Hope you enjoy the ideas!

More samples from my meeting

2009-02-26T09:52:00.000-08:00

This card showcases some new products: Good Morning DSP, So Saffron Ribbon, the Eyelet Border Punch and Jumbo Brads in Chocolate Chip.

This card uses the new mini library clips in white...so fun!

This card is done with the new Bright Delights rub-ons and uses the texturz plates!!

This card also uses the new Texturz Plates and the Bright Delights Rubons...

A Good Friend Stamp Set & Chipboard

2009-02-26T09:46:00.000-08:00

These are some cards I made for the Luv2Stamp Meeting. I did a presentation on the Retro line using the fun new embellishments. Here I covered the chipboard birds with the Good Morning Sunshine papers and added some Incolors ribbon, the new white brads and the awesome corduroy buttons! LOVE them!!

I used markers to color the beak and the legs...I liked the cute eyeballs!

This card uses the new mini library clips...

And this card was done by my very own 7 year old!! Isn't it cute? He made it ALL by himself after watching me cut out some DSP to cover my chipboard birds. He is so talented! =)

Basketball Baby Card

2009-02-22T15:34:00.000-08:00

Here is a basketball card I made for a friend of mine who just had a baby. He's a basketball coach so I thought this would be the perfect card for his baby!

Retro Theme

2009-02-10T15:34:00.000-08:00

I'm doing a presentation on the Retro Theme using New Embellishments at an upcoming Stampin' Up! meeting so I'm playing with some of my new stuff this week. Here is a card using the new DSP and rub-ons...note to self...don't use rub-ons on dark paper!

This card is fun, using the new Cheep Talk set and the DSP as well as the texturz plates (the circle background is hard to see in this photo..but if you click you can see it)

This is a bright and crazy card...I tried cutting out the bird..its too much work!!

My favorite card..trendy trees with the great texturz plate behind it. I love the colors!! A great simple card!

February Samples

2009-02-10T15:31:00.000-08:00

This sweet card uses the new Trendy Trees in a different color scheme..matches the delicate dots DSP from Sale-a-bration!

Here's one using the Cheep Talk set and the muted colors again...also the great ribbon available as part of Sale-A-Bration!

Another one using the Cheep Talk set and the new Texturz Plates from Stampin' Up! Can you see the subtle background? Then I used the saffron ribbon from Sale-A-Bration...lots of fun with my SAB stuff!

This card uses the new rub-ons and the texturz plate too..simple and manly card!!

Valentine Candy Box

2009-01-21T11:32:00.000-08:00

This is so fun! I attached the red cardstock to cardboard with glue and then ran it through my big shot machine. It's very much like a See's candy style box, but it's homemade! Gotta love that!!

The inside of the box is a 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 inch box scored at 1 inch marks and stuck to the bottom top note die with sticky strip! It's really pretty easy to make and so cute! I got the idea from this blog so I need to give her credit for it http://www.stampwithkarengp.blogspot.com/

This is an easy card we made at class last week! I love the felt flowers!! =)

Valentine's Class Projects

2009-01-21T10:45:00.000-08:00

Isn't this fun? We made these cute goodie bags using the Top Note Die and the Big Shot.
I originally got the idea from an idea on splitcoast.

Here is a side view and you can see the little white bag inside..

Here is a card made with the envelope die and the Big Shot..can you tell I love my Big Shot?

This was one of the cards we made at class and we embossed the heart with iridescent ice embossing powder.

Delicate Dots & Easter

2009-01-19T16:19:00.000-08:00

These pages use the Delicate Dots paper and the Polka Dot Punches stamp set from the Sell-A-Bration Mini catalog coming in February!! Enjoy!!

Sell-A-Brate Fun!

2009-01-19T16:17:00.000-08:00

Here are some fun cards I made with my new Sell-A-Bration sets...the Yummy set is great for using with the Top Note Die!

On this card I used the new Delicate Dots paper and the Polka Dot punches stamp set...these will be available in February!!

Then I scrapped Easter using the Delicate Dots Paper and the Polka Dot Punches stamp set! The colors were perfect to match my boys shirts and Kaylie's dress!

My Favorite Cupcake!!

2009-01-16T12:56:00.000-08:00

So I did a layout for my son's 2nd birthday and I started feeling creative...

So I decided to copy an idea I had seen on a blog of using the crimper to make the cupcake more realistic!! Isn't it cute?? It was very time consuming..just fyi!

I really like how the layout turned out..so cute with all the little sprinkle brads and the coordinating sprinkle brads on the smaller cupcakes (on the green circles). This was just a really fun page...

More Scrap Pages...

2009-01-16T12:53:00.000-08:00

I scrapped this T-Ball page using Sporting and Just Baseball stamp sets. It made for a page that came together quickly and everything ties together well. Finally I can use some of my glorious green paper!! I never use that color...

I love how our designer series paper can be used for so many pages. Here I used it for a page about feeding the ducks!

So this paper isn't SU! but the stamps and ribbon are. I love how the colors coordinate with celery, rust and brocade blue..our colors are awesome!

Star Wars!

2009-01-16T12:49:00.000-08:00

Trying to figure out how to do Star Wars pages with my Stampin' Up! supplies wasn't easy..but I realized my well-worn alphabet was perfect for the title and my star punch and red ribbon finished off the pages...I'll add journaling to the first page and that'll make for a galactic layout!

For this layout I used the Crazy for Cupcakes Stamp Set--the balloons and party blower are great for the background! Again the same letters for the title...

Can you tell I love this alphabet? Here are some pages from our Disney trip....love this camping set too!

A Pirate's Life For Me!

2009-01-11T14:04:00.000-08:00

So I scrapped some pirate pages last week....this one is from Halloween 2006----but I just love the white ink..its so different from what I normally do..and I used some of the rub-ons left over from the Halloween Chills and Thrills for the title--

Dallyn's birthday party this summer was a Pirate Theme. Here are some pages from his birthday--

On this one I still need to journal...and then you can see all the jewels on the page (rhinestone brads) and I used my Halloween rub-ons again--I've never used them on ribbon before! That was so fun! So much fun---

Super SImple Family Pages

2009-01-11T13:55:00.000-08:00

I used the Summer Home Simply Scrappin Kit to make these super simple family pages! These photos are all on the walls in my house but I wanted to have them in the scrapbook also.

So I used the simply scrappin kit and some ribbons and they came together really quick! You can click on them to see more details. Enjoy!

January Creations

2009-01-07T15:39:00.000-08:00

So I decided to change up one of my Valentine's Day cards. So I added polkadots and the build-a-brad to this card! I like the pop!

I decided Gardn Whimsy needed to see some ink...so yummy in Tangerine!

From the HOPE IS Breast Cancer stamp set...I need a little bit of Hope in my life.. =)

More Christmas

2009-01-04T13:41:00.000-08:00

Again using the rest of the Winter Bright Kit I scrapped the pages of what we did at my parents home the day after Christmas...

LOVE THIS PAGE!!! You have to click on it to see it better....this is Kyler eating M & M's..... I just LOVED these photos..all he wanted to do Christmas morning was eat M & M's...using a retired burgundy as it perfectly matched his jammies..and the going gray with the Well-Worn Alpha Set....and see the button M & M's????

Christmas 2008

2009-01-04T13:36:00.000-08:00

Here are some pages from our Christmas! Yes, since I'm up at 3 am since my steroids don't allow me to sleep--horrible--I've been getting a lot of scrapbooking done. So I've already done Christmas.

For these pages I used what was left of my Winter Bright Simply Scrappin Kit. I need to journal on this page still..

I just used all the left over pieces, added some a fun title and it made for some quick pages....

Birthday Pages

2009-01-04T13:31:00.000-08:00

These are some birthday pages I did really quick...using the Party Hearty Stamp Set...this is my baby..he's 2!

Gotta love the bright and wild colors of this page..what I love is that the party hearty set looks so great in wild colors as well as muted colors!

This is a very easy layout...both of these are using some retired paper from a SSkit and then I used our Life's a Beach stamp set..don't you love the muted colors?

This is from our trip to the beach in Oct...yes we wore clothes because it was cold and then the kids got soaked anyhow...who says you can't go to the beach in Oct?

Seeing Spots!

2009-01-04T13:27:00.000-08:00

In November we had our production of 101 Dalmatians that I directed. A few weeks back I scrapbooked the pages. I wasn't sure what to do at first since I don't have any dog stamps! Then I realized the Seeing Spots set would be perfect for this!

So see what I did?? I used it all over for spots for the Dalmatians layout! I'm so happy with how it turned out...then you can't pass up using BIG DEAL numbers and letters for the title on these pages!!

This page used rose red since Kaylie's dalmatian costume was that color...so I did the same idea just in Rose.

And in chocolate chip for my Chihuahua Cameron...

Lastly I wanted to share a 2 page spread I did with the Best Ever Simply Scrappin Kit..gotta love how quick and easy it is!

More Valentine's Day Cards..

2008-12-29T05:36:00.000-08:00

These are the other 4 cards I'm teaching at my upcoming class. This card is from the Happy Heart Set (holiday mini)...SO CUTE!

And another card using the Love Ya Much Bundle..and the yummy new paper that comes in the bundle..just LOVE IT!

Then I threw in a few oldies but goodies for the class. Gotta love the truck with all the hearts..and don't forget we have great gingham ribbons still!!

Flight of the Butterfly is such a great set for the new year...don't forget there are other fun colors too...love this! So..do you want to come to my class???

**DOUBLE CLICK ON PHOTOS TO SEE THEM LARGER SIZE!**

These are the cards I created for my Valentine's Day Class I'm having in January.
For the first two cards I used the new set in the Holiday Mini catalog "A Happy Heart". Gotta LOVE this set..and the colors...I mostly used Pink Pirouette, Riding Hood Red, Very Vanilla and Chocolate Chip! Yummy...

These next two cards use the Love Ya Much Bundle..did you know there is a great new triple heart punch we have??

Christmas Goodies

2008-12-22T14:41:00.000-08:00

My Christmas Cards!

2008-12-08T00:00:00.000-08:00

Yeah! Tonight I finished my 70 Christmas cards! Woohoo!! Here's my desk covered in cards!

I used the Big Shot top note die and used the basic grey frames to go around our new family photo! Then I used the curvy label punch kit and stamped Merry Christmas in the baja breeze to attach to the corner of the cards.

I wanted a nativity card and so for the inside I did the Season of Grace stamp set with the coordinating verses. I love how they turned out! Tomorrow they'll be in the mail! Yeah!

Here are the projects we did for club for Dec.

Season of Joy Set with Artichoke, Chocolate Chip (my fav!)...simple yet elegant!

My new SnowBurst set was just asking for SNOW! Gotta love the ease of the Big Shot for cutting out the top note!

This gift uses the pillow box die for the Big Shot....little brushed gold cardstock pillow gift boxes--perfect for gift cards!

One more card using the top note die also..can you tell I love? Also our yummy kiwi satin ribbon & ski slope papers!

Thanksgiving Placecards

2008-11-29T12:08:00.000-08:00

Well my photo turned out too flashy! Sorry, but you can get the idea! I made these using the Sixxiz Big Shot with the top note die. I used the curvy label punch kit, paper from the Home Simply Scrappin Kit and chocolate chip ribbon! Really fun placecards for Thanksgiving. Kaylie used the large scallop punches and floral punches and did coordinating confetti for the table as well as under the glasses coasters! We had a great time decorating...

Breast Cancer Thank Yous

2008-11-22T12:20:00.000-08:00

Using my Big Shot I put together these cute Breast Cancer Thank You goodie bags for my friends. I just passed my one year anniversary and wanted to give a little something to my friends to say thanks! I thought the pink chocolates that were in stores in October were perfect for this!

I bought the retired Breast Cancer stamp set on ebay and used it here for my goodie bags. I liked how they turned out...really quick and easy...but cute.

And a reminder for early detection of Breast Cancer...don't ever take that for granted!

love, heidi

Mother & Daughter Class

2008-10-28T21:12:00.000-07:00

We had another Mother & Daughter class last weekend where we made some fun Halloween projects I wanted to share!

First is a cute treat basket box I made to take to friends for Halloween. It's made with the Sizzix Big Shot envelope die, cut out four times. It's so fun! Thanks to Patty Bennett for the idea! You can click on the photo to see the picture better.

Next is the Frankenstein bags we made at the class using punches and the top note Sizzix die. Thanks to Cambria Turnbow's blog for this cute idea!

Lastly we used the Chills and Thrills rub-ons on these cute pails from the dollar spot at Target. We added ribbons, M&M's and crinkly paper for a really cute gift!
*

The kids enjoyed using the liquid applique to make Halloween cards, that's always a hit. Then, thanks to an idea from Dawn Reilly's blog, we made these coaster frames, which is a bi-fold frame that stands up and you put Halloween photos on it. (Mine doesn't have photos yet!) It's made using coasters. So cute! Then the kids did these cute skeleton cards (this one is Kaylie's) using skeleton paper and stamps! Use a sponge dauber on white ink on the skeleton to omit the words!! You get a whole new use for the stamp!

Sunday Kaylie and I did another card challenge...this time it was to use pink pirouette paper and the Top Note Sizzix Die. Here are our cards:

Mine: Flower Fusion and Flower Fusion Too, Chocolate Chip Ribbon, Sweet Always DSPaper, Birthday Stamp Set, Silver Brads
Kaylies: Scallop punch, Happy Hearts Set, Background Basics and Chocolate Chip Marker

And from our challenge 3 weeks ago....any card using the square scallop punch and pretty in pink and chocolate chip and white color scheme!

Kaylie: Scalloped edge punch, scallop square punch, designer label punch, flower punch, circle punches, family greetings and hostess set
Mine:Punches Three set, All in the Family set, Neighborhood Wheel, Scallop square punch

Recycled Swap Cards!

2008-10-13T20:56:00.000-07:00

Well over the past few years I've done A LOT of card swapping! Last weekend I went through and took some of my swap cards that were retired and made them into cards! As many of you know the swap cards I use are just card fronts. So instead I re-layered them and made them complete cards!! Now I have another dozen or so cards in my card file. I need to do this every month or so and I'd really add a lot to my collection! So there you have your tip of the day!

October Stamping...

2008-10-03T11:02:00.000-07:00

I taught stamping in Kaylie's 4th grade class yesterday! The kids had a great time.

*Happy Boo cards using Booglie Eyes (retired) set, puffy paints and the embossing tool, the kids had a great time with this!! Look at his big eyes!!
*Then cased from SCS is the cute spider idea with the punches and york peppermint patties! Kaylie ran this station for her class...they had a great time!
*I took my new Top Note Bigz Die and let the kids stamp and cut out their own topper for their candy bag. Then they used the Halloween stamps to cover up the staple. They loved this!!

Last night I had Stampin' Club too so I used my new Scallop Envelope Die and the new Green Tea paper to make this fun card. It's a 5 by 5 card that has a little thank you card in the pocket...

Then the inside of the card has some more DSP and another area to write. I just loved using the new Sixxiz Die!! Thanks to Patty Bennett for the inspiration for this card!

Sunday Punches Challenge

2008-09-15T09:28:00.000-07:00

Kaylie, Cameron and I did a punches challenge yesterday. Cameron did a cute bug card using the large circle punch and the paper crimper. We didn't look at each other making the cards till we were all done! It was fun to see what everyone created!

Kaylie's card is this cute frog card...she got the idea from a card I taught last year at a class..but she used different punches and made it her own! SO cute..I love the big eyes and the tongue..that is so cute! And don't you love her fly? It's so creative!

My idea is very fun, but no, it was not my idea! I got the idea from the new Stampin' Success magazine they send to demonstrators! The whole turkey was made using punches though...really fun. Even his feet are made using the flower punch from Boho Blossoms! Some creative folds with the scallop punch and 'presto'! You have a cute Thanksgiving card!!

Happy Halloween...

2008-09-13T11:18:00.000-07:00

My new Halloween stamps arrived this week! *Click on any photo to see details*

Here I used Basic Grey (my new fav color!) with the Kiwi Kiss Ribbon I just got! I sponged the edges with white which was a spooky touch...these images are from the new Eat Drink & Be Scary Set.

Here's another card using the fun new Ghostly Greetings paper and new stamps!

This one was so fun...i inked the DSP with white ink and then cut out the black cat from Halloween Frights. Add some grey taffeta ribbon and some rhinestone brads on top of the layered corner punches and it's such a fun 5 by 5 cards! Getting me in the mood for Halloween...

We're at it again...one of our weekend challenges. Here I challenged Kaylie to make a Halloween card using black, orange and some of the new Stamps and DSP (Designer Series Paper)

This top card is Heidi's card...using the fun new Halloween Frights Stamp Set (Holiday Mini), Ghostly Greetings DSP, and grey taffeta ribbon! Fun!

Here is Kaylie's great card! I love how she layered the circle punch on top of the new square scallop punch! So fun!

Heidi's second card...using the same set paired with the Batty For You...don't you love the white craft ink! This card uses the new Tangerine Tango color ribbon and cardstock!

Kaylie's very creative card...she used some old DSP that had a spiderweb on it..if you look closely the torn black paper is a web and the spider is hanging from it!! Then she used the new stamps as well..so creative and fun!

This blog is going to be dedicated to my fun stamping projects!! That way I can easily post my creations for my friends and family to enjoy, without having to scroll through all the family posts....and my family can view the family blog without having to read all the details of my stamping posts! So I think this will work out well! Enjoy the Inkspiration!

This is a baby card I made with the new Muirfield Paper, the Nursery Necessities Stamp set and the White Taffeta Ribbon. I love the non-traditional baby colors...(Baja Breeze, Sage Shadow, Chocolate Chip & Whisper White)

Last week I taught Young Women's and we made these fun coaster accordion cards. On the front the girls stamped and did some rub-ons...boy did they go nuts with the rub-ons!!

The coaster book opens up to reveal a message and some wallet sized photos (easy to do at Costco.com)..

The end result is a tri-fold accordion style photo card that can fit in a regular envelope! An awesome idea for a Holiday card or a special occasion! =)
