Stamping my own background paper

I have a ton of paper for scrapbooking and card making, but sometimes I still like to design my own. Here is a piece of paper I stamped and then some items I made out of it. 

Stampin' Up! inks used were Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry and Kiwi Kiss

Stampin' Up! scallop border punch

This little birdie is from the Create A Critter cartridge

This sentiment is from the Doodletype cartridge. I also used the Sizzix Top note die from Stampin' Up!

This sentiment is from the Stamping cartridge

I decorated a pillow box here and made a tag (Stampin' Up! die cut and punches)

Here all all the items using one sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 paper

New EK Success Border Punch

I got the new border punch and had to make a card with it right away. I love this punch! It is huge and a little hard to punch, but definitely worth it. I used paper from the Sweet Stack from DCWV, and from Stampin' Up! ~ Pretty in Pink, Real Red and Chocolate Chip. I used both tag punches from SU also. The scalloped border is punched from a SU punch.
I took a little time and put background paper behind the cupcakes, and pop dotted them. I also just took a picture of what the border looks like cut out in white cardstock.

Envelope Mini Book

Here is a mini book made from envelopes that I made quite a while ago. I am just slow on getting the pics taken and posted. The papers I used for the most part are from Making Memories "Chelsea's Place", and Stampin' Up! cardstock. I inked all the edges using Stampin' Up! inks. The stamps are misc stamps from my collection.

Here are just a few of the pages and tags. There are a lot more pages, but you get the idea. I love how it came out. 

Pagoda Cartridge ~ Side step card

Robyn, (mypinkstamper) had a DT call, so here was my entry. We were only allowed to send in one picture, which makes it hard to see a 3-D object. I didn't make it on the team, but I had fun making the card anyway.

Mariposa Cards

Here are two cards I made using the new Mariposa stack from DCWV.

I also used the Metallic stack, and the greeting is from the Stampin' Up! "Holidays & Wishes stamp set. Card base is River Rock cardstock from Stampin' Up!

This card uses the 5 petal flower and the Spring Flower Bouquet punches from Stampin' Up!, Groovy Guava and Dusty Durango cardstock. I inked the edges of the flower with Close to Cocoa ink, also from Stampin' Up! Ribbon is from American Crafts.

Misc cards

Here are some cards for those "chatters", "texters" and "gamers"       :)

 

Live Your Dream card

Here is a card using the Stampin' Up! set "Live your Dream". I used Kiwi Kiss textured card stock, Almost Amethyst, and Whisper White card stock with some miscellaneous designer paper. Almost Amethyst and Always Artichoke inks. The greeting is from the "Cute Converse" stamp set.

DCWV Green stack

Here are a few fun cards I made using the Green Stack from DVWV. I also used some of the critters from the chipboard collection. All inks and other cardstock are from Stampin' Up!.

Very Merry Tags & Box

Here are a bunch of tags I made for Christmas using the "Very Merry Tags" cartridge. I also used the "Wild Card" cartridge to make the box and then used acetate for the window. I used flocking on one of the stockings so it feels all nice and fuzzy.

The next four tags were made using the Stampin Up! Ornament punch and "Delightful Decorations" stamp set and then heat embossed.

Dinosaur Tracks Layout

I decided to make a two page layout using the Dinosaur Tracks cartridge. I still have to print out one photo, but am out of ink, so it has to wait. :)
I used Stickles over the lava. The pterodactyl's are from a retired stamp set from Stampin' Up! called Prehistoric Pals.
