Mystery Stamping part 2

CLUE 2
I am going to give you all of the clues in this post so you can work at your own pace and not have to search for them. Follow along to make your card then post a picture of it in the comments here. 

Ready?
....fold your card base
....cut your DSP into 5 strips 1” x 4”
....arrange and attach them on the card front
....cut a die shape from the same color as the card base
....stamp image on the white scrap and cut (with die or scissors)
....stamp greeting on scrap white and trim 
....attach die, image, and ribbon to card front
....add greeting
....add white to inside of card
Now, post a picture of your card in the comments below.
(IF you can’t post the picture, just comment “Done” and message the picture to me. I will then reply to your “Done” with your picture)

On Sunday, after noon, I will do a random drawing of everyone that has a posted picture either here or on FaceBook for a prize. 
Have fun!

I will post the card that I did using these clues and the winner or the drawing on Sunday night.

Please share my page with anyone that you think would enjoy doing this. Thank you!

Mystery Stamping

What is Mystery Stamping?

 Since we can't stamp together at the Library, I thought I would try to inspire you with a mystery stamp session. 

I will give you a list of things to gather and then post clues (directions) for you to follow to make a card. 

Would you like to try it?

Go to my Face Book page and follow along.

Care 2 Stamp with Carolee? is the page. Please Like the page and share it with any one that you think would enjoy using the supplies that they have in their stash. The first clue is:

Gather the following materials:

• Card  base in a dark color 8 1/2" x 5 !/2" 
• scrap of the same color as card base
• white card stock 5 1/4" x 4"
• DSP to coordinate with the card base 5" x 4"
• medium shape die
• stamp set with image for focal point
• if the image needs to be colored, get the markers or pencils or other supplies to color
• stamp set with greeting
• scrap white for stamping
• ribbon
• general supplies (trimmer, adhesive, scissors, etc.)

The next time I post,, i will give the directions to use the materials to turn it into a card. 

After that, you make the card and take a picture of it, and post it on my FB page. 

I will put all of the names of the posted card makers in a container and pick one for every ten that are posted to win a prize. 

Let me know in the comments what you think about this and give me suggestions of what else I can do to inspire you to create cards. 

I am still having trouble posting pictures on here but I did get the one above on so I will continue to work on getting those swap cards on here. 

The Hostess code for this month is NSMTYBH3  If you place an order on line. If the order is larger than $150 do not use the code because you will get the hostess benefits yourself. 

Thank you!

Another Month of Stamping Alone

How are you?

Just a reminder for those of you that earned a bonus code in July to place an order now to redeem it. I will be placing the order on Monday as it is the second Monday of August. 

I hope that you have been stamping. I have been doing more swaps than usual because I have had the time to do that instead of preparing cards for the Stamp Along. I am (slowly but surely, I hope) working on doing a FaceBook live Stamp Along for/with you. Let me know if you would like that or any thoughts you have on that idea. 

Today I am going to share a few of the swap cards that I got back for this one.

I guess I won't be sharing swap cards after all! 

I can't get them to import! There must have been an update that changed things and things aren't working today!

I will be sending two cards and a product sample with your order again this month. One of them will be the swap card that I did. I posted it last month. It is the one with the present in the new Magenta Madness in color. That must be my new favorite color. I have made several cards using that color. The other one will be a surprise.

The hostess code for this month is:

TTVXRKME

If your order is more than $150, don't use the hostess code as you will get the hostess benefits for yourself. You will still get the cards and sample. 

Thank you!

I will try to post the swap cards on FaceBook at Care 2 Stamp with Carolee?
