(I have shown this pic on my blog before but I hadn't "labelled" it into cards.)
One Sheet Wonders!!! These pics show what you can do with repetive stamping & using matching inks & card stock. The above are using the Petal Prints stamp set (pg 74) my longest serving stamp set! & Soft Subtles card stcok.
Below I have used the Simply Said stamp set (pg 52) & Rich Regals cardstock.
One Sheet Wonders are quick & easy. If you stamp up 1 + 1/2 A4 pieces you can get 8 cards (above) or by using a 12" x 12" & a template, you can get 17 cards!!!! Match it with a card wallet I can show you how to make & you have a beautiful, useful gift set that is light enough to post.

Boho Backgrounds Pg 97 This is such a versatile stamp set. It could easily be overlooked. However, I have made lots of cards using just this stamp set alone - the possibilities are huge. Great potential. If I was a rating person I would give this one 9/10!!!!!

Looks like Spring pg 76. I have had this set almost from the beginning of my time with Stampin' Up! - before I joined as a demonstrator - it is certainly one of my favourites. I love that the 3 flower stamp matches perfectly with the 3 flower punch (pg 143) & now the 5 petal flower stamp has it's own matching 5 petal punch, too - so easy.
Touch of Nature stamp set
I made this card when I had some leftover cardstock & a bit of time on my hands. It was more as a play but I rather like the way it came up. I have used the Touch Of Nature stamp set
(pg 75), vanilla, choc chip & old olive cardstock with choc chip ink.
It's hard to believe that the end of June is knocking on the door! What a quick year this has been.
Our first Stamp Club evening was a lovely social evening. I'm really glad that everyone had a good time & thought it was worth coming along to. The Make 'n' take project was also a hit.

The next dates for Stamp Club:
12th July @ 2pm - 4pm RSVP 10/7
9th August, 7.30pm - 9.30pm RSVP 7/8
