PAY IT FORWARD PROJECTS
 

This is the thread that we are going to use to post pictures of the projects we have created using our newly acquired supplies from each other in the Pay It Forward thread.


Thread is here :) http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...536736-22.html

wooohooo!

I can't wait to see what wonderful things people will make with our cast-offs!

I'm really excited about this thread...it is spurring me on to get down to my stamping room and try out some new sets! Looking forward to seeing what people are doing with their new toys.

Subbing.... :-)

WOOT WOOT

can't wait for the inspiration to begin! Who will be first?

Ravioligirl....maybe you should post the link to the thread that started this thread for anyone who might want to participate. I would post it in your #1 post, that way it will be easy for everyone to find it. :wink:

I'll see if one of the moderators can do that for us.

Thanks, stampergrl...really...all I wanted to see was what "my claimants" did with their PSX Botanical Alphas...LOL...see what happens when we all start chatting.

Anyway, I'm still waiting to hear back a second time from a moderator about putting a link to the PIF thread in the first post of this thread. Thanks, everyone.

BUMPING THIS THREAD FOR LYDIA.

Here's a link while you wait...

I just PM'd Lydia last night and asked her to put a link for each thread in the top post of the other thread. [It's hard to explain, isn't it?]

Thanks for your help, Kathy.

I'm confused, but that's kind of normal for me!;)

Kathy,

I asked to have a link for the S/O Pay It Forward thread put in the top post of the PAY IT FORWARD PROJECTS thread.

And then, I asked for a link to the PAY IT FORWARD PROJECTS to be put in the top post of the S/O Pay It Forward thread.

Does that make more sense? LOL...I know...clear as mud. I've confused myself!

Can they do that? I think I get it...kind of like a sticky...

Ok...I am NOT a fancy stamper. My daughter can't figure it out because I LOVE the foo-foo cards and I LOVE bling. But, everytime I begin to make a card, it comes out very basic and plain. LOL...don't know why that is. Anyway...I received "Cuttlebug Fanciful Labels" from Bahb and this is the card I made using one of the labels. [I just now took my Big Kick out of the box to use it. It's been sitting on the floor of the kitchen since the beginning of September! I'm still trying to figure out how to use it.

Your card is Gorgeous!

Here is a video:

Using your Big Kick machine to cut and emboss Spellbinder dies - YouTube

We are totally TWINS in that respect! I want to do all the frilly layers, with a touch of ribbon and bling but my cards always look so BLAH!

Don't put yourself down, RavioliGirl, Your card is gorgeous!!!

That's beautiful! Love the way you did up the leaves and that's a great sentiment too!

Oh...dear...I thanked Joan7356 for her compliment privately, but now that there are more...I'll say "thank you" publicly. I don't want others to think that I'm being ungrateful. I appreciate your kind words about my little card.

Let's see what everyone else is creating with their PIF goodies!

I'm watching all the videos craftymomto2 has sent me. I just now figured out how to use an embossing folder with an already folded A2 card. [Takes me awhile!]

bumping this up because I couldn't find it.

C'mon you guys...get crafty and put some pictures up. I did my little card just to get things going.

My PIF Project!
 

I have not yet learned how to add a thumbnail to this thread...so here is a link to my project that I made with the white bags I received from Jent: It's the Little Things...: Pay It Forward Project
I am so excited with the way they came out - I am going to make them for my Christmas goodies this year! Thank you again, Jent!

Well, those are simply adorable! You just create the coolest stuff, Lynda! I'm glad your picture is NOT next to my card. LOL!!!!!

Llamas...or alpacas...
 

Llamas or alpacas...Never can tell the difference, but I'll find out today. This very simple set of notecards and envelopes were created for a friend with PIF's from auntangie [stamp] and Paige [Petal Point Pads...oh, man, talk about alliteration!]

Anyway, I couldn't believe it when I began to look at Angie's stamp. I keep a little "swirls" stamp on my table all the time because I use it so much. I probably use that stamp more than any that I have. It's from Magenta and I have had it for YEARS. I noticed that it was the same swirl as the background of the teapot stamp. So I had to include it somehow. I thought it looked like steam under the pot.

I'm using the bigger envelope with the three images to put the notecards in.

Thanks, ladies for your gifts!

These are so cute, Beverly! And thank you for the instructions on doing a thumbnail...I will try it here: my thanks to Jent!

Lynda! You did great! If you only knew how funny it is that I was able to help someone do something "techwise" on the computer. Love, love those bags.

Could someone send me instructions on how to attach a thumbnail photo? I have a card made from my PIF stamp set to share. TIA

When you write your message, just go to "GO ADVANCED." Then, you click on "MANAGE ATTACHMENTS." Click "BROWSE" and go look for your photo wherever you keep them on your computer. When you click "OPEN" it will begin to download. Watch the bottom of that window. It will say something like "Awaiting permission from Split Coast Stampers" or something like that. When it's done, just close your window and you'll see a little icon for your pic. You can "preview your post" to see what it looks like. Does any of this make sense? Let me know if you need help.

Hi ladies~

Thanks for the instructions. Wow, your response was so quick!

I'm sorry but I don't remember who the person was that had this stamp set up for grabs but thank you to that person. It is Close To My Heart - Christmas Stocking.

Hope this works - I'm not very techie!!!

Aww...that is so cute, hanging on the fireplace. Love the stocking and how you decorated it!

LOL. I just cut and pasted those instructions. Had them from before. I see that you were able to figure out my rambling. Glad I could help.

Nice cards ladies!

Nancy (aka Phantom) blessed me with some wonderful stamps from PTI. Here's a card I made using one of those stamp sets, Tintypes.
