And now a word from our sponsor

Ah! And now onto TCP Tuesday.

We've changed the format of the TCP Tuesday Challenges. So many people have said that a week is not enough time to get the challenge done. Sometimes, there needs to be a bit of "stewing" before you can actually sit down and create. I hear ya. So, instead of a week-long challenge, our challenges are now a month-long. Just post your entry to the link button on the right to enter.

Now this month's challenge. Everything old is new, again.

This challenge is a supply challenge. Kinda. I am challenging you to bring out your existing TCP stamps and dies and use them in a new and creative way. Maybe there is a Holiday set that would make a perfect Valentine's card. A die that could be used in a different way than I designed it.

If there is a TCP stamp set or die that has been challenging you so much that you haven't used it, I'm challenging you to pull it out and use it!

Like Jen del Muro's twist on the Gift Card Envie and our Brand New Toppers. A great way to get a different look from a classic. That Jen is so clever. Here's a peek. Now go and see how she finished it.

Or Kimberly Gajewski's sweet Valentine banner and card using our Heart Trio CutUps.

AND, she created amazing card with the leftovers. I'm loving her tone on tone card. It's a stealer. Er, I mean keeper.

Lori Tecler's card makes me sing a little tune with her twist on our Easy Rosette. A classic go to card.

Noelle McAdams' first week as a Cat Packer! She pulls out all the stops by turning our Rolled Nest CutUps into a sweet flower embellishment for a scrapbook page. So cute! Here is a closeup.

And hold on to your hats, Wendy McGaffey creates a fantabulous SNOWMAN with our Pom Pom CutUps! You have to see it to believe it. Amazing! Go take a look! Here is what she started with.

Now, don't you think it's time for you to play along?

 So, here's the scoop.

1. The First Tuesday of the Month I will post a challenge on this blog. That's right! Here!
   The challenge will also be posted on our Splitcoaststampers forum and on our Facebook page
2. If you want to play along you just upload your design right here on this page using the InLinkz button. (The challenge button will be posted on the right hand column of this blog so you don't have to search around)
3. The Challenge will be a month-long challenge and you can play as many times as you like during that month.
4. Cards and projects must have at least one Cat's Pajamas Stamp or CutUps die in the project.
5. On the First Monday of the Month a winner will be chosen from the previous challenge and crowned Swanky Stamper.
6. The Swanky Stamper will not only be acknowledged as the Swankiest Stamper for that month, but will also receive some of the stamps from our next release and get to play along with us at our Pajamas Party and Blog Hop. AND... They'll even get a special spot in the Gallery highlighting the project that won them the gig AND as snazzy badge to display on their blog.
7. The winner will be announced the First Monday of the month on Splitcoaststampers, Facebook page and this Blog

Only a couple of days left

 

Now you have no excuse to play along on TCP Tuesday.

February TCP Tuesday 2013

Are you ready for the first TCP Tuesday Challenge of 2013?
I sure am. 

This challenge is a supply challenge. I am challenging you to bring out your existing TCP stamps and dies and use them in a new and creative way. If there is a Birthday Set, change it out so it can be used as a Holiday set, and vice verso.

If there is a TCP stamp set or die that has been challenging you so much that you haven't used it, I'm challenging you to pull it out and use it!

If you've only used our stamps and dies for cards, we are challenging you to use them in a scrapbook page, on a home decor project, to decorate a gift. Whatever. 

In this card I challenged myself to use our Heart Border die to create a rolled rose. I think they turned out pretty cute. And they were crazy easy to make. Check out the video to see just how easy.

Our dies, while they cut paper, can also cut fabric wood and acetate. The cut piece can be rolled or sewn or made into a three-dimensional project.

This challenge is to think outside of the box. I want you to use our stamps and dies in a way you might have not thought of before. Even if it's pulling out a stamp set that you've never used before. Get out your Cat's Pajamas gear and stamp!

And TCP Tuesday is now a month long challenge. Post your cards and projects on this blog to the right using the link to the right.

I hope you are inspired. Want to be more inspired?

Check out Nancy's pretty card. She put a little twist on a Holiday set.

Julie created a Sweet Valentine using an unlikely little man.

Lori pulls out the very first set she ever got, and it looks like it hasn't aged a day.

Wendy's creation has me all starry-eyed.

Want more inspiration?

You don't have to rush to get a challenge done each week. And you can play as many times as you wish. One sweet entry can win you the whole shebang.

Are you asking yourself "do I have to use TCP stamps"? I'm a little partial to the stamps, and it is a TCP Tuesday challenge. KWIM?

So come back tomorrow and I will post up the new challenge for all to see. Are you ready?

Welcome Wendy!

Wendy McGaffey has been Swanky Stamper many times. I love her clean, pretty card designs that have so much detail. So very many of her cards using our stamps and dies are truly droolworthy. So who better to ask to join the team than someone who makes me drool? The details in her cards really make each one so very special.

I just adore this card she created using Aye, Aye, Captain. Really a fresh fun card! Love the all the details of this card. The wave, the hat that she popped out and the notched panels give this card a nautical feel.

How about the details in this card? See the twine behind the bunny? Just brilliant! I can totally picture the bunny soaring above us in the night sky.

This card just made me laugh out loud when I saw it. There is so much to discover in it. And that's what I love most about Wendy's cards, the discovery. The attention to detail. Her humor.

I am so happy and excited to have Wendy join us on The Cat Pack. I can't wait to see what she does next.

Kimberly Gajewski

If you are familiar at all with the art of Kimberly Gajewski, it's no surprise that when a position opened up on the Cat Pack she immediately came to mind. With a wonderful eye and attention to detail, it seems that every time I look at her cards, I discover something new. Her bold style and clean stamping technique, just makes her cards go "BAM". Emeril would be proud. Here are just a couple of her fabulous cards.

I am totally in love with this card she did using our Feeling Cupidy stamp set and I love how she tucked the Cloud Border behind the floating circles. And she didn't have to use pretty Divine Twine for her buttons, but it just adds so much.

She did this card several Christmases ago and I still love it. She used Your Gift. Note the careful cutting out of the ladder and the pretty shading on the tree. And, the fluffy bunny tail. What I love most is her buttons. One, simply threaded, the other with a bow. It just adds so much.

This card, using Quality Time, is so pretty and soft. What a lovely mix of patterns and textures. Just so sweet. I am so looking forward to seeing what Kimberly comes up with next. We are truly lucky to have her join The Cat Pack.

Noelle McAdams

I have been watching the Swanky Stampers over the years and one that constantly amazes me is Noelle McAdams. I've been admiring her work for it seems like ages! Her beautiful, whimsical style seems effortless and her paper choices and color choices are just, well, beyond description.

Here is what I mean. This wonderfully classic card has a very simple color scheme using our J*lly H*liday set, but Noelle's mixing of patterns and textures make this card drool-worthy.

From Classic to downright fun, Noelle loves color. And she uses it so well. Take this card using our Star Rosette, Holiday Toppers and Soar stamp set. I never would have thought about putting all these colors together, but Noelle does it beautifully.

But, it was this card that just did it for me. She used several of our CutUps, along with our one of our older stamp sets for this beauty. She did such a wonderful job, I may have to bring this set out of retirement. A jaw-dropper of a card. After seeing this card, I had to ask Noelle to join The Cat Pack. And, I'm so happy that she said "yes". 

Anyone there?

Helllllooooo!

Well, I think I finally got this blog working again. And just in time, too!

LOTS of things coming in February. Stayed tuned for a big announcement on the FIRST!

Down goes the Blog

As you probably noticed I have not been keeping up with this blog.

I've been finding it really difficult to keep up with a blog, a Facebook page, a Splitcoastampers forum, Pinterest page and Twitter feed.

As a result, I've been slacking. Big Time!

So until further notice this blog is down.

You can find all things Cat's Pajamas like our TCP Tuesday Challenges on our Facebook Page and on our Splitcoaststampers Forum where you can post your cards for the challenge.

TCP Tuesday 231 and the Weekly Winner

For last Week's TCP Tuesday challenge, Jen brought us gracefully into Fall with this pretty Inspiration collage for the Inspiration Challenge.

Amy Rohl has got me thinking of warm fires after a fun day searching for just the right pumpkin. Warm lattes, stocking feet, just a great time to be inside with your family.

Nancy's  card combines the Inspiration Collage with the deconstructed sketch challenge. Love her use of textures here. She always surprises me.

Okay the word for Amy Sheffer's card has got to be stunning! Love, love, love the sweet bear and the use of the big leaf background is brilliant.


I'm nuts about Julie's card. Literally! 'Nuff said.


Then Lori's card is a simple and sweet card. The focus is the stamp and the coloring. Everything else supports it beautifully.

Now hop on over to Julie's  Blog. She is the Hostess with the Mostest for this week and your challenge is to do a shaped card! But it must be a Fall-themed shape! Think pumpkins, candy corn, apples, leaves, etc. Have fun!!

I don't know how Nancy does it, but she always is ahead in her stamping. Like this wonderfully funny card with Sprinkle.

TCP 229 and the Weekly Winner

Sorry for the delay in posting up. My father called me suddenly to get him to the doctor. And when your 90+ year old father calls. You go. Thankfully, after blood work and an ultrasound, he was diagnosed with gout. He had a bout with skin cancer in that same leg, so we were a bit worried. Gout is treatable, but you never want to see anyone, let alone someone you love in pain.

Nancy uses one of my all time favorite sets for her super fun card. She proves again, what a master she is when it comes to mixing paper.

Then, Amy's sweet card is so whimsical. Great use of just a big image or two sometimes to get that "Wow".

Julie's card is a jaw dropper. She brings out the kraft paper and designs a card that is fresh looking and fun!

Swanky Stamper for September

Yes. I know it's the middle of the month. And the Swanky Stamper is usually announced towards the beginning of the month.

I've had some requests, though, to push the choosing of the Swanky Stamper forward, to allow for those playing the end of the month challenges more time. I'm still considering that option, so this month, I thought I would try it out. So without any further ado, The Swanky Stamper of the Month is Wendy McGaffey.

 

Wendy Mcgaffey — Swanky Stamper for September

As a designer, I so appreciate the cleverness of a good design. Perfectly chosen paper. A well placed flower. Strong concept. Great colors. All work together to make a terrific design. Like this card by Wendy Mcgaffey. It has all of the things I mentioned and more. This card has so much going for it, if I were Wendy, I would be keeping it.

 

 

We had a lot of really fantastic players in the technique challenges. Like this one by Cindy Major. LOVE her use of patterns and textures. There is a lot going on in this card, but Cindy makes it all work beautifully.

 

This pretty, scrappy card by Cheryl Lea is another beauty. Delicate coloring. Wonderful textures, just an all-around pretty card, using our Commemorating You set and Stamp Trio CutUps Die

And Emma H. created this elegantly stunning card. White on white with just a pop of color! So sophisticated.

We had so many outstanding cards this past month. It was really hard to choose only one winner. But, congrats, Wendy! Great Job!
