For Onstage my team leader, Brandi Barnard organized a drop off or mail in swaps since we couldn't be together in person. There were two different themes: Fun Fold and Wow Cards. Below are the Wow cards I have gotten! They are amazing and I know the ladies that created them put so much thought and work into them. We had to make and send 20 of one design. I'll give you the name of the creator and attach a link to the item they used most or is featured in their card. If you have questions about any of them, please comment and I'll give you more details about it. Please enjoy this gallery of ideas!
By Kathryn Whittaker
Kathryn did a beautiful job making her cluster of Christmas greenery in the corner of this card. I know this must of took a lot of time and the look is just simple but stunning! She used the Beautiful Boughs Dies and Peaceful Boughs stamp set.
By Lore Webb
Lore did a beautiful job of embossing, stamping, and surrounding her flowers with gold foil using the Many Layered Blossoms Dies. This is truly a WOW card when you look at all the details and see the "clean" (no mistakes) stamping!
By Lisa Owen
Lisa made this amazing cut out easel card. She made this great night image with the moon in space and a child standing among the mountains (from Mountain Air) reaching for the sky. She even added texture with Evergreen Embossing folder. Such a beautiful card with such great imagery. Lisa is a teacher of young students and I would image she created an adventure of learning for them. The adventure come from the Sweet Silhouette dies.
By Becca Ingersoll
Becca made this bold high heel card using the Dressed To Impress stamp set and matching Dies. She used a sponge dauber for the circles on top and embossed the Basic Black on the bottom!
By Lynda Day
*Not yet available until Jan 5th, 2021
Lynda used a brand new stamp set that is only available to demonstrators right now will be in the Spring Mini Catalog! She did a great job showing off that new paper and making that dragonfly look like he is flying with at Misty Moonlight shadow and Vellum gold embossed body.
By Jade Boger
I am not sure what stamp set Jade used for her "hello" and flowers but she did a beautiful job layering the greenery with the golden hoop, and her double bow with ribbon and thread. So many great layers is what makes this a WOW card!
By Natalie Woll
Natalie used a great color combo and simple but sweet layers to make this "WOW" card. She embossed her Whisper White with the subtle folder. Used white embossing powder for her "get well soon" greeting and fussy cut her flower out from the Healing Hugs stamp set!
By Cynthia Hafner
Cindy is known for making beautiful cards and this just adds to her collection. She used the Stacking Stone background stamp. Embossed her Basic Gray banner with the Dainty Diamonds folder. Used DSP for her second banner and made a 3rd banner out of ribbon. She then die cut that peony and sponged it to give it more dimension. Just amazing!!!
By Brandi Barnard
Brandi loves stars and it shows in this card! She created a cute peek-a-boo where you can see the Rainbow Glimmer paper. She used the Stitched Stars Dies and the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set.
By Stefanie Wilcox
Stefanie made a fun night sky using her Stampin' Blends and the Campology trees. She even embossed her greeting in white embossing powder. To create her sparkling sky she sponged Versamark and heat embossed the silver powder.
Ashley did a great job making this WOW card by making a special fold to create a kite that opens. She used the Ornate Garden DSP and matching ribbon and the greeting is from the So Sentimental stamp set. *misspelled in the photo above. I love that Dainty Diamond embossing folder as well on her yellow cardstock.
Here is how the kite part opens up for her WOW card! She even added a little piece of Velcro at the bottom to keep it closed. You could even write a fun message inside the kite!
By Michelle Fagatele
Michelle also made some great layers with her use of her Peony Garden DSP, the square dollies, and her fussy cut flowers! Love the soft feel the card gives.
By Paula Skeen
Paula created this beautiful winter scene using the Snow Front stamp set. Also her use of embossing folders to add texture and her ribbon placement makes this card a WOW card! She even embossed in White Embossing powder on the vellum for her greeting.
By Tricia Williams
Tricia is a watercolor expert and has made a beautiful winters night sky. She paired her watercolor sky with the Home Together Dies and created a fun home surrounded by snowing hills and trees. This die and stamp set is part of Stampin' UP!'s Making A Difference charity. Those you buy this stamp set alone or as a bundle Stampin' UP! donates $3 to charities devoted to adoption, foster care, and infertilely.
By Nancy McArthur
Nancy is the Queen of blending! She did such a wonderful job using the Seabed embossing folder come to life just by blending different shades of blues. I also love how she used only half of her label for her heat embossed greeting. She even made her whale "shiny" but I using clear embossing powder over him. This is truly a WOW card!
By Mandy Whitfield
Mandy made her WOW card into a treat holder card! How awesome is that! She did a great job stamping the cute little cups and using the DSP as a partial background! Love it!
By Candice Anderson
Candice card has great texture layers, the use of silver foil paper (that makes an card into a wow card) and she has a fun tab to keep the card closed. She even used silver embossing powder for her flower images and watercolored those in! WOW, what a great card!
I hope you have enjoyed all of these WOW cards and I can't wait to share with you all of the Fun Fold Cards from Onstage as well!!!
Happy Stampin' Everyone!!!
