SUO Challenges 91, Banner Fun – Our Top 3!!

Thanks to everyone who participated in our latest challenge. We all had fun with so many different kinds of banners that can be made with Stampin' Up! products!  Fun definitely is the word of the day today!

Thanks especially to our Top 3 whom we felt did the best job of capturing our theme for the week!  Click on the pictures of their projects to go to their blogs or galleries for more details.

 

Narelle Farrugia. There are so many great layers in this card!  We loved the fun angles that accented the color combo so beautifully.  The banners under the ribbon and all the other lovely finishing touches tied everything together perfectly!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stacey Ailes. What a fun "clean and simple" (CAS) card!  We loved the use of the Designer Paper in the background and the black accenting the Pool Party throughout the card.  Did you notice the "extra" banners behind the birthday greeting?  Such fun!

 

 

 

Brenda Hofstatter. We love the way Brenda used the banner framelits for this fun birthday banner.  I think our favorite part of this was the use of all the little accents to make a little birthday girl so very happy!

Aimee Cretsinger.  Did you all notice that Aimee made her card with a stamp she made with Undefined?  What a great stamp and we loved her masking and the bright rainbow colors she used that go perfectly with this stamp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Amanda Burditt.  Amanda also wowed us with her selection of rainbow colors, with the repeating word.  She did a beautiful job lining those words up and keeping them equidistant all down the line.  We especially liked the accent of the one word with glitter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Super Stamp Girl (Crystal Komara).  This "sweater" with its rhinestone necklace is perfectly elegant!  Great "thinking outside the box" card!

SUO Challenge #86, Last Minute Christmas – Our Top 3!

Thanks to everyone who participated in our latest challenge.  I wouldn't be surprised if quite a few of our blog followers didn't use some of those ideas for last minute Christmas Cards and Gifts! We loved them all – as usual!

Eva Bussom.  This is just one of the set of note cards that Eva made.  The whole set is so simple, but beautifully creative.  And they look so easy to make – they could be used as a quick last-minute gift for so many occasions just by changing out the greetings!

 

 

 

Tricia Raineri,  This is an especially wonderful little gift with the matching greeting card to go along with it!  The whole design makes those polka dots look so very festive!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lizy Bartaby.  The tea lights inside the Stampin' Up! Milk Cartons make such a festive glow!  This is a great hostess gift for the hard-to-shop for person – especially as they can sit or be hung as a banner.  So creative!
