This week's challenge was a Color Combination, Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, More Mustard and Ruby Red. I LOVE the Fall colors SOOO much and this combination was a joy to work with.I got my inspiration from a card swap I recieved at convention this year. I first saw this card style, called a Wiper Card, 2 years ago at my first convention when it was demoed on stage by Spencer Willis who is a Stampin' Up! employee. I remember watching him create this fun fold and thought to myself that I could never recreate it because it was too hard.
Well, thanks to the swap card I recieved this year, I was able to really look at it and deconstruct it so that my little pea brain could "get it"! And guess what? It really was EASY! Yes, I promise! And I'll prove it! YOU will be making this card on Saturday at my Aloha stamp camp - are you registered yet? Call me today if you want to come!
Here are the details on the card:
Stamps: Upsy Daisy, Pocket Silhouettes (both on SALE right now!) and Dreams DuJour
Inks: Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Basic Brown, Creamy Caramel, Ruby Red, More Mustard
Cardstock: Very Vanilla and Challenge colors
Accessories: Large and Small Oval Punches, dimensionals, sponge, Sticky Strip, Paper Cutter with Scoring Blade
The card base is cut at 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 (2 pieces) and each piece is scored at 4" and 4 3/4" on one end. The pop-up piece is cut at 1 3/4" x 3".
I was so happy with how this turned out! I may just design a different wiper card for my Stamp Camps on Tuesday! It's a fun, fun layout that just makes you smile when you see it work.

Lovely card Robin! Beautiful job with this set! What a wonderful wiper card! I don't think that I've ever seen this! :D
ReplyDeleteBeautiful project. This set really looks wonderful in these colors.
ReplyDeleteOh I love how you used this type of card with those stamps! And you are right it's really easy once you tried it. I was lucky enough to receive the card at convention too and demoed it this month. Now I'll have to make one like yours!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!! Love the little tag part that pulls out, very creative!
ReplyDeleteSuper layout!!! I love how you used Upsy with the Pocket sets!!! Too cute!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Robin, these silhouette stamps work wonderfully with the Wiper Cards!
ReplyDeleteVery nice, it's a popular stamp at the moment but you have done it justice. Great take on the challenge!

ReplyDeleteWell aren't you clever!!! I haven't tried a wiper card yet. Think Dennis will mind if I fly to your house to make one? LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I love how you combined the different stamp sets so beautifully here. I've never tried a wiper card before--I just may have to do one now that I've seen yours.
