I had the wonderful opportunity a couple of weeks ago to meet with Caroline Le Bel, a demonstrator from Stampin’ Up. Stampin’ Up is a rubber stamp/scrapbooking supplies/crafty doohickee retailer that sells both online and through demonstrators like Caroline, and I try not to make direct eye contact with their catalogue for fear of draining my bank account. Nevertheless, it was a delightful morning, and I learned to make this card:
It was actually very easy and not at all labour intensive! I loved the layered effect — you can totally do this if you’re making your own cards — to make it a little more special. Caroline also used small round sponges to do the antique finish by brushing ink across the cardstock. Love love love it.
Caroline brought a few other projects to show me. See below for inspiration!

I’ve also been to a Stampin’ Up party and while I’m not at all crafty, it was pretty amazing to see how easily you can transform a card with the right supplies.
