Lovely Lattice Ornament

Over at Lynn Pratt's blog she has been sharing some truly inspiring ornaments using Stampin Up products and dies! 

So with my Ornament themed Stamp a Stack tomorrow I have been playing around with different ideas on what to share at the craft table to inspire participants - this is one of the ones I had attempted myself to see if it would be doable and while I LOVE it - it is truly gorgeous in real life - time wise it is just not a quick enough one to stay within the time frame of making 10 projects in 2 hours ... however wanted to share it on the blog in case anyone was inspired to make one at home when time is not a factor and you can take the time to line up all the little lattice folds and glue them it is worth the effort!

All you need is the Lattice Die, cardstock in a color scheme of your choice, Tombow glue, 12 inches of ribbon and a bead or gemstone for the bottom if desired!

Playing with Punches - Shoebox Swaps

This offering is from our Playing with Punches - shoebox card swap with my upline team! Nancy designed and shared her shoebox with us to get to make this card - it was so much fun!

This card used the Lattice Bigz Die with it handcut to create the Celtic knot look, the Butterfly punch, the Boho Blossoms Punch, the 2 Step Bird punch and the ribbon punch. It also features the 2011-12 In Colors and the Butterfly Prints stamp set!

Also wanted to share that I am able to invite a 'guest' to the Upline Team meetings so of you ever wanted to come out and see how supportive and fun being a Stampin' Up Demo can be - drop me a line!

Happy Stampin'
