Hello Monday! Hope your week has started well!
Today for Stamp Review Crew, this wonderful international crew of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators are creating using the Labeler Alphabet stamp set.
You may have just come from the gorgeous Linda Callahan in the US! Or starting here with me in Australia. Next stop is Tanya back in the US! Wonderfully international – and very talented!!!
This stamp set is a long time favourite of mine! Alphabet stamps are already good for when the sentiments you’ve got don’t quite fit the occasion! Or to add that personal touch.
This sassy get well card I made earlier in the year is still one of my favourites.
I’ve made three cards to share with you today.
The first card is to go with a present I bought for Miss Papercraft’s teacher. They’ve been reading all of the books in the Roald Dahl series, so when I saw a Roald Dahl fact book / sampler, I thought it would make a great classroom resource.
Of course every good present needs a card, so I made this card inspired by the part in Matilda where she telekinetically raises a piece of chalk to the blackboard and writes on it.
I left the ‘A’ unfinished as I’m sure there are lots of adjectives that a teacher could use to describe a class full of year 1 students!!! Awesome, atrocious, amazing, awful….
It’s a vocabulary lesson right there!
The next card is for a little Warrior who has a long history of medical treatment. I lovely friend put me onto the Communified Facebook page, where each month they share the story of a chronically ill child.
June’s Warrior is Tayte. He loves lego, so I made him this interactive Lego waterfall card.
The Labeler Alphabet stamp set was handy to not only add his name (because a personal touch is always awesome) but the ‘pull’ instruction so they could work out how to get the card to move.
And the final card for today is another mermaid card. Did you enjoy my colour combinations last week?
Here’s another set of colours – Marina Mist, Sweet Sugarplum, Bermuda Bay, Pear Pizzazz, Berry Burst & Basic Black!
This card is my take on the ‘be a unicorn’ theme.
Who doesn’t want to be a mermaid?
That is all today!!! As you can see, I love this stamp set a lot!
And find it easy to find ways to use it in my cardmaking, but I can’t wait to see how the rest of the crew have used it!
Next up is the wonderfully talented Tanya Boser…
Thanks for hopping with us!

Absolutely adorable cards! Made me smile!
Wow, Kelly, what a fantastic trio of cards! I love them how but how special is that personalized Lego card? Awesome job!
Three amazing creations! Cheerful and fun.
May I ask the best way you have found to use the labeler set? Do you typically set up the word on the block or stamp each letter directly to the paper to build a word? I have this set for a while but avoid using it because I am sure I will “mess it up”.
Hi! For the solid letters, I stamp set letter at a time, trying not to overthink the lining up. Then I cut out each word and adhere. For the other letters, I line up on my grid paper or mat and put as many letters on the block at a time as I can. I think the trick is to not overthink it!!! They are meant to be a little wonky.
These are 3 absolutely fabulous samples. The mermaid saying is perfect with this set, but I LOVE the legos waterfall idea!!
Love your cards!
All three cards are so fun! I am especially fond of that greeting on the mermaid card, love it!
These are are amazing, and I love the back story for them. But the mermaid card has captured my heart!! Love it so much!
These are such fun cards!
Three AMAZING examples of how to use the Labeler Alphabet to perfection. My favourite is your darling mermaid card.
Three awesome designs Kelly! Love that cute Lego flip card and your blackboard just makes me smile…Clever! xx
Always be a MERMAID! These are three fabulous cards.
