Stamp With Linda Walsh

Hi, Everyone,
I'm showing this desk set in a three-part series.  Each post will show a different photo of the same set but just in different designer papers.  The directions will all be the same in the online classroom.   It's just to give you an idea on how else you can create these projects for coworkers, friends and families.

Today I'm posting in the online classroom how I made my notebook.  The other two parts will be posted in the next few days.  Hope you can join us.  If you'd like to view the video and download the PDF tutorial, join the online classroom today!

Here's some of what you've missed in the online classroom:

If you'd like to know how I made my box, you can view the video and PDF format in the online classroom.

Here's a cut little box to put whatever you'd like in it.  I have ornaments that I'll show you how to make tomorrow in a video.  The box video and PDF tutorial is now in the online classroom for you to view.  We'll come back and make our ornaments next.

Remember these cute carrots in the basket below?

Here's your video on how to create these cute little treats for your Easter basket that's in the online classroom.  Enjoy!

Have you ever wanted your papercrafting project to be just a bit stronger and hold a bit more?  Well, this basket will surely do that.  This basket is 5 1/2 wide by 3 1/2 tall.  Look at how many carrots it can hold!

Sorry it's taken so long to post, but this project, although simple, I have very detailed videos in the online classroom for you to view - four to be exact.  Don't let the four videos sway you from creating this project.  You'll definitely be able to create it in less than an hour.  Once you do one, the others will be quicker :)

I'll have the video tomorrow or you on how to create those cute little carrots for your treats.

Thanks for visiting with me today!

See more photos below of this cute little basket.

Here's some answers to questions received.  Hope this helps.

Q: I’ve seen some great paper ornaments lately. I’d like to make some, but don’t know how!

A: Paper ornaments are a hot trend this holiday season. Beyond decorating trees, they are being used as décor items around the home, as accents on wrapped gifts, and as fun, family projects. Of course, there are so many different ornaments to choose from. Luckily, I have a couple of gorgeous, and easy, ones to share. I got these ideas from Stampin’ Success, a magazine that demonstrators receive free from Stampin’ Up! It’s one of the great perks of being a demo! Here are instructions for Paper Bulb Ornaments and Glitter Snowflake Ornaments. Enjoy!

Paper Bulb Ornament:
• Ornaments are made up of 9 strips of paper that are 1” wide. The center strip is 8” long. Each curved layer is 1” longer. Make the ornament strips from plain or stamped card stock or from a selection of your favorite Designer Series Paper. You’ll need strips in the following sizes:
1 1” x 8” strip for the center
2 1” x 9” strips
2 1” x 10” strips
2 1” x 11” strips
2 1” x 12” strips
• Pierce holes centered in the end of each strip, about 1/4” from the end, using the Paper-Piercing Tool (#126189) and Stampin’ Pierce Mat (#126199).
• Layer the strips so the top ends are even and so they are stacked in this order: 12”, 11”, 10”, 9”, 8”, 9”, 10”, 11”, 12”.
• Place a Silver 1/8” Mini Brad (#122941) through the pierced holes. Spread prong to close brad and hold layers together.
• Thread the holes at the bottom of the strips through a Silver Mini Brad causing the longer layers to curve out.
• Thread a piece of Linen Thread (#104199) or Baker’s Twine (page 172) through the center of the ornament and slip it up between the strips so it wraps around the Mini Brad. Knot thread around the brad to hold in place and then create a loop to hang the ornament.
• Optional: Cover brads with buttons, Pearl or Rhinestone Jewels, or ribbon.
• Make ornaments of different sizes by starting with a shorter 8" x 3/4" center strip and adding 1/2” for each layer from the center.

Glitter Snowflake Ornament:
This super-fast ornament can be made two ways.

My Digital Studio:
• This option allows you to make snowflakes in any size you wish. Use the Snowflake Punch in My Digital Studio. Size Snowflake Punch as large as you want.
• Print to create a template. Cut out template.
• Trace onto the back of Glimmer Paper (available in Silver, Red, and Champaign).
• Cut out by hand.
• Create ornament from a single snowflake or sandwich 2 snowflakes back-to-back so both sides are finished. For a 3-D ornament, score 3 snowflakes in half, fold, and adhere backs together.
• Use Linen Thread (#104199) or Baker’s Twine (page 172) to hang ornament.

Big Shot:
• This option is faster since it doesn’t require cutting snowflakes by hand, but it only makes 3 ornament sizes. Die cut Glimmer Paper using Snow Flurry Bigz Die and the Big Shot.
• Create ornament from one or two layers, or make a 3-D ornament as described above.

Now let's get started for next year :)

Hi, Everyone,
Aren't these the cutest ever!  It's peppermint patties sandwiched in there.

I used the Stylin' Snowfolk stamp set from Stampin' Up!

Some punches used are:
scallop punch
1 3/8 circle punch
1 1/4 circle punch

My coworkers and family members are sure to love these.  I'll put out a little dish of these for my guests.

Thanks for visiting with me tonight!
