Projects from VanIsle Stampin' Up! Meeting - Sept 13/08

Yay, I got to finish some of the make n' takes that we did at the VanIsle SU Meeting! I couldn't wait and they were so much fun to do. And EASY!!!!

These first two projects were my absolute favorites!

1. Shadow Box Card

Supplies used: Real Red Paper, SU Markers, Liquid Applique (non SU), 1/2" striped grosgrain ribbon and the stamp set "Jolliest Time of the Year"

Here is a closer look at the Shadow Box Card at a slight angle, you can see the 3D of the applique and even though it is a bit hard to tell here, the face is 3D also!! You stamp the Santa's face again on a separate pc of paper , cut it out and then apply over the first santa's face, way too cool!

I LOVE Liquid Applique!!! It goes on like glue, looks like glue, but when you put a heat gun to it, it puffs right up!!! FANTASTIC!!!! I love making things pop out, make it more dimensional...I hope they will be making more colors in the future!!!! For the white applique, make sure not to heat it too long or it will burn!

2.Diaper Fold Packet

This was an amazing little project to make!!! You only use 1 sheet of Double Sided 6x6 paper and start folding - you do not use any adhesive!!!!

I love this packet because you could make it for so many things: ornaments, party favors, gift for teacher or anyone, door prizes, etc. LOVE IT!!!!

Sorry this picture is not right-side up (anyone know how to fix this?) because when I took and edited the picture, it was the right way!!!????

Anyways, I am posting it because to show you how you can decorate a simple York Pattie for your prize in your little packet!!! mmm York Patties, they are good! And if you want to make a whole bunch of these, you can get a HUGE bucket of these Patties at COSTCO!
