Sudsol Tour 8

Hi Everyone and welcome to Sudsol's eighth blog tour! Sudsol is an on-line group and business resource for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators. Along with project ideas, we share a lot of ideas for building and maintaining our businesses. But today, we're all about sharing projects with you!

First, how about a little project with a slightly different opening? Instead of opening up like a standard card, this one has a mini card layered onto a flat base. The recipient will need to unhook the string and lift the flap to reveal the hidden message. The end of the string is tucked (but not adhered) behind the gnome's hand just for fun!

Stamps: Gnome Sweet Gnome and Friendly Phrases

Next is a Valentine's card for my sweetie, so it's low on the frills. I wanted it to have a little something special, so the cupid is stamped and heat embossed with Silver Embossing Powder. Even though I have been stamping for many moons now, heat embossing still wows me. And look how nicely it coordinates with the Mini Silver Brads!

Stamps: P.S. I Love You

Every week on Sudsol,  a newsletter is released with a few challenges to help boost your creativity. This year, I am helping out by providing Scrapbook Challenges. Now, if you have read my blog before you may have noticed that I am primarily a card maker. However, I have been trying to share scrapbooking more often so I knew that taking this post would force me to scrap more. This page, created in My Digital Studio, fits this week's "Anything Goes" challenge as well as next week's sketch challenge. (So it's like a sneak peek!)

Created using My Digital Studio; download a free 30-day trial beginning 2/1/12!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I hope you have enjoyed at least one of the projects! If you are a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and would like additional information regarding Sudsol, stop by and try a free 2 week trial. See you there?
