Wow Wednesday

Wow Wednesday was this week and it was so popular, it had a baby and we called it Terrific Tuesday!   We had a great time creating this super cool projects.


First we made this card:  it uses the Fresh Vintage (remember....it's a freebie) and an interesting color combo:  Pool Party and Cherry Cobbler.  I like it.


stamp set:  fresh vintage (SAB freebie) and Apothecary (occasions)
ink:  cherry cobbler, pool party, stazon black
cardstock:  whisper white, pool party and cherry cobbler
accessories:  simply scored (score long/short side at every 1/2 inch to give grid background) 1 1/4 square punch, itty bitty punch, rhinestones, pool party baker's twin (occasions mini), popdots






Then.....we did some Spirelli.   So easy and I even wow'd myself!






stamp set:  mixed bouquet (occasions), delightful dozen
ink:  whisper white
cardstock:  whisper white, lucky limeade, basic grey and twitterpated designer paper (occasions)
accessories:  mixed bouquet punch (occasions), white embossing powder, lucky limeade ruffled ribbon and lucky limeade bakers twine, scallop circle punch, popdots

Our next project and probably the most favorite was Frosty, the Telescoping Snowman!  So fun!


When he's folded....he looks like a melted snowman....but then,
he suddenly stands up! 

cardstock:  basic black, whisper white, real red, pumpkin pie and silver glimmer paper


I found the video instructions and it's a lot easier to give credit where credit is due.....so thank you, Tami White!  (who I am pretty sure copied it from someone else)  That's the fun of stamping!


Enjoy!
