Stampin’ Up! Inked & Tiled for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Sketch Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s sketch.

Stampin' Up! Inked & Tiled Get Well 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Inked & Tiled Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Seasonal Branches Photopolymer Stamp Set, Inked Botanicals 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Nested Essentials Dies for my card today.

This is our sketch for this week.

Stampin' Up! Inked & Tiled Get Well 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering 2 strips of Inked Botanicals DSP to a Calypso Coral card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered another panel of Inked Botanicals DSP to a Lost Lagoon mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Inked & Tiled Get Well 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Basic White using the largest die from the Nested Essentials Dies. I stamped the leaf image from the Inked & Tiled stamp set in Pool Party Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the Basic Whtie panel multiple times. I stamped the larger flower image from the Inked & Tiled stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the leaf images. I adhered the stamped panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Seasonal Branches stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink. I adhered the sentiment to a Lost Lagoon mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added 3 Ombre Matte Decorative Dots to the sentiment. I added a couple Brushed Brass Butterflies to the card front. I tied a small bow with the Lost Lagoon 1/4″ Bordered Ribbon and adhered it to the artwork using a Glue Dot.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Seasonal Branches stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the leaf image from the Inked & Tiled stamp set in Pool Party Ink on the bottom of the panel, stamping off once on scrap paper. I stamped the larger flower image from the Inked & Tiled stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the leaf image. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Lost lagoon mat then to the inside of the Calypso Coral card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from the Inked & Tiled stamp set in Pool Party Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the envelope front. I stamped the larger flower image from the Inked & Tiled stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the leaf image. I adhered a panel of Inked Botanicals DSP to the envelope flap.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Fun On Wheels for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already. I hope everyone is having a good week. I had my card class last night and had a lot of fun with the ladies. I look forward to getting together with them each month. We get to chat while they are making their 4 cards. Some of them bring some ‘show & tell’. Each month some of them bring cards that they have made since our last class, and I let them pick a little gift. One of the ladies brings everyone a homemade paper craft to share.

It’s time for an inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We have 2 inspiration photos this week and you can choose whichever photo you prefer, or you could create two separate cards, one for each photo! The inspiration photo 197a is Industrial Modern and photo 197b is Nature Calls. Here is my card inspired by the photo.

Stampin' Up! Fun On Wheels 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Fun On Wheels Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiment Photopolymer Stamp Set, Stripes and Splatters 3 D Embossing Folders and Banner Pick A Punch for my Clean and Layered Card today. I was inspired by the colors from photo 197a.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 197a or 197b.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Fun On Wheels 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing an Early Espresso card front using the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Tahitian Tide card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I embossed a strip of Sweet Sorbet using the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it on the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a strip of Tahitian Tide on the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Stampin' Up! Fun On Wheels 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the mat image from the Stampin’ Up! Fun On Wheels Cling Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink. Using the Fun on Wheels Dies, I cut the bike frame from a panel of Tahitian Tide and the wheels and seat from a panel of Basic Black. I adhered the seat and wheels to the bike frame using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Fun On Wheels 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a strip of Sweet Sorbet, I stamped the sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I cut the end using the Banner Pick A Punch. I adhered the sentiment to the Basic White panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the bike to the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Classic Matte Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Fun On Wheels 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Fun on Wheels stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Basic White. Using Basic Black and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Write Markers, I colored the bike image from the Fun on Wheels stamp set. I gave it a huff and stamped it on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to an Early Espresso mat then to the inside of the Tahitian Tide card base.

Stampin' Up! Fun On Wheels 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bike image from the Fun on Wheels stamp set on the envelope front. I colored the stamp using Basic Black and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Write Markers. I embossed a panel of Tahitian Tide using the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Little Dreamers Baby Girl Fun Fold

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off great. I’ll be having my Stamp Camp Card Class tonight. I’m looking forward to seeing the ladies and watching them make the cards I’ve designed. I have someone new coming tonight, but from what I was told, she’s a seasoned stamper. Now if I can just get the kits cut up before everyone gets here. I’m a little behind with getting certain things done this past week. I’m hoping to get myself caught up soon.

Today’s card is another one we made at our meeting on Sunday afternoon. This adorable card was designed by my awesome team member Tara Carpenter. Here’s the card for today.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Baby Girl Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Little Dreamers Bundle along with the Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper, Hello Irresistible 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper, the Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Sentiment Silhouettes Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Baby Girl Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by scoring and folding the large and small card base. I adhered the 2 panels of Bright & Beautiful DSP and the panel of Hello Irresistible DSP to Berry Burst mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered Bright & Beautiful panels to the large Bubble Bath card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered Hello Irresistible panel to the small Bubble Bath card base. I adhered the small card base to the large card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue by lining up the bottom of both card bases and centering the small one with the large one. I adhered the back of the small card base to the back of the large card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Baby Girl Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the lion image from the Stampin’ Up! Little Dreamers Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image with Berry Burst and Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image and 3 clouds using the Little Dreamers Dies. I stamped the sentiment from Charming Sentiments stamp set in Berry Burst Ink on the Basic Whtie panel. I cut the sentiment out using the Sentiment Silhouettes Dies. I adhered the lion image, a small cloud and the sentiment to the small card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the other 2 clouds using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few of the Tinsel Germs Four Pack to the small card front.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Baby Girl Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Little Dreamers stamp set in Berry Burst Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the small star image from the Little Dreamers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the corners of the panel and colored them using Berry Burst Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Berry Burst mat then to the inside of the Bubble Bath card base.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Baby Girl Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the lion image from the Little Dreamers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image the same as I did for the card. i adhered a panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP to the envelope flap.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Little Dreamers Neutral Baby Card

Good Monday morning stamping friends. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Did anyone do anything special? We had our quarterly team meeting, enjoyed the time with team members chatting and stamping together. Oh, and the cards we made are super cute. I’ll be sharing them over the next week.

Today’s card was the first one we made designed by one of my team members from PA, Akiko Sudano. This one is a neutral baby card and I just love it. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Neutral 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Little Dreamers Bundle, Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper, Nested Essentials Dies and Basic 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Neutral 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Delightfully Eclectic DSP to a Garden Green mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Daffodil Delight card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the lion, stars and sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Little Dreamers Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images using Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using the Little Dreamers Dies and the smallest rectangle from the Nested Essentials Dies for the sentiment. Using the Little Dreamers Dies, I cut 2 clouds from the same panel.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Neutral 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Calypso Coral cardstock I cut the banner die using the Nested Essentials Dies. I embossed the banner using the Basics 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the banner to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the sentiment on the banner using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the lion image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the clouds and stars to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I tied a small knot using the 3/8″ Garden Green Ribbon from the Real Red & Garden Green 3/8″ Ribbon Combo Pack. I adhered the knot below the sentiment using a Glue Dot.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Neutral 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Delightfully Eclectic DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Garden Green mat then to the inside of the Daffodil Delight card base.

Stampin' Up! Little Dreamers Neutral 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the baby lion image from the Little Dreamers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Delightfully Eclectic DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Seasonal Branches Sympathy

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope your weekend is going well. Our town is hopping again today, there is a street fair going on so roads into town are closed again. I’ve lived in this town now for 34 years and I think I’ve been to this street fair once. Today I’ll be heading up to my team leader Amy’s for our in person quarterly meeting. I’m looking forward to seeing other team members in person and via zoom. I’m excited to be stamping with them too. I always look forward to stamping with others, I don’t mind stamping alone, but sometimes it’s fun to be sitting and chatting with others while creating. We’ll be making baby cards which I’ll be sharing through the next week.

My card today could be a sympathy card, a get well or just a card of encouragement. I like to have them on hand, just in case. Also, the ladies where I get my hair cut asked me to bring in cards for them to buy and they specified they needed sympathy. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Seasonal Branches Sympathy 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Seasonal Branches Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Gorgeously Made Dies and Petal Patterns Dies for my card today.

My colors are from the TGIF Challenge #423.

Stampin' Up! Seasonal Branches Sympathy 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a adhesive sheet to the back of a panel of Smoky Slate and cutting the panel with the detail die of Petal Patterns Dies. I adhered the die cut panel to a Smoky Slate card base.

Stampin' Up! Seasonal Branches Sympathy 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Gorgeously Made Dies, I cut panels of Calypso Coral and Lemon Lime Twist. I adhered the Calypso Coral die cut panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the 2 leaf die cut panels using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I trimmed the excess stem using Paper Snips.

Stampin' Up! Seasonal Branches Sympathy 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Seasonal Branches stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink. I cut the sentiment using the Gorgeously Made Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Pastel Gems to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Seasonal Branches Sympathy 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Seasonal Branches stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on a panel of Basic Whtie. I stamped the branch image from the Seasonal Branches stamp set above the sentiment in Smoky Slate Ink. I stamped the leaf image from the Seasonal Branches stamp set in Lemon Lime Twist Ink on the branch. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Calypso Coral mat then to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base.

Stampin' Up! Seasonal Branches Sympathy 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the branch image from the Seasonal Branches stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the envelope front and flap. I stamped the leaf image from the Seasonal Branches stamp set in Lemon Lime Twist Ink on the branch images.

Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings CAS Birthday

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some plans for the weekend. I’ll be working all day today and last I saw we’re expecting rain all day today. We’ll see what happens, it’s NJ and they don’t always get the weather correct. Tomorrow I have my in-person quarterly meeting. I always look forward to these meetings and getting together with team members.

I have a quick birthday card for you today using one of my favorite sets from the new catalog. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings CAS Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings Bundle along with the Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings CAS Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP to a Berry Burst mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to an Azure Afternoon card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings CAS Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the circle sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings Photopolymer Stamp Set in Azure Afternoon Ink. I stamped the cupcake image from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink inside the sentiment. I colored the image using Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings CAS Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a piece of 3/8″ Lemon Lolly Sheer Ribbon from the Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack, to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the punched sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Tinsel Gems Four-Pack to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings CAS Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Azure Afternoon Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Bright & Beautiful DSP to the top of the panel. I stamped the cupcake image from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the image using Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Berry Burst mat then to the inside of the Azure Afternoon card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the cupcake image from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   GVEBWYZ6

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! So Refreshing for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends. How was your week? It’s been a busy one for me, with Memorial Day, the end of the month, the 1st of the month, I’ve been working every day. I usually have 2 days during the week off, not this week. I did have Memorial Day off.

I wasn’t able to do my live on Wednesday since I got stuck at work later than planned. I do have a simple fun fold today using a new bundle that I just got. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! So Refreshing Bundle along with the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering the book end of the Flirty Flamingo card base together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a larger and smaller panel of Delightfully Eclectic DSP to Daffodil Delight mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to the Flirty Flamingo card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I colored a piece of White Baker’s Twine using the Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends Marker. I wrapped the twine around the left side of the card base twice and tied a bow. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the pitcher and glass images from the Stampin’ Up! So Refreshing Photopolymer Stamp Set in Smoky Slate Ink. I stamped the liquid image from the So Refreshing stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, inside the outlined images. I stamped the ice cube image from the So Refreshing stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut the images out using the So Refreshing Dies. On a scrap of Lemon Lolly cardstock, I stamped the lemon slice image from the So Refreshing stamp set in Daffodil Delight Ink twice. I cut the images out using the So Refreshing Dies. I cut the tablecloth/blanket die from the So Refreshing Dies from a panel of Pretty Peacock cardstock. I adhered the tablecloth to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut a slit in the lemon slice using my Paper Snips and slid them onto the glasses. I adhered the pitcher and glasses to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the So Refreshing stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Delightfully Eclectic DSP to the side of the panel. I stamped the lemon image from the So Refreshing stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Daffodil Delight Ink. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Daffodil Delight mat then to the inside of the Flirty Flamingo card base.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the pitcher, ice and glass images from the So Refreshing stamp set on the envelope front in Smoky Slate Ink. I stamped the liquid image in Flirty Flamingo Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. I adhered a panel of Delightfully Eclectic DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Fun Fold 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Zany Zoo Birthday for Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends and Happy June!!! Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Color Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s colors.

Stampin' Up! Zany Zoo Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Zany Zoo Bundle along with the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder and Beautiful Balloons Dies for my card today.

Here are our colors for this week.

Stampin' Up! Zany Zoo Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Pool Party card front using the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder. Using the Beautiful Ballons Dies, I cut a panel of Lemon Lime Twist to make grass. I fluffed the grass a bit and adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue just on the bottom of the panel. Using the Zany Zoo Dies, I cut a panel of Crumb Cake to make the stool, a panel of Basic White to make the clouds and Lemon Lime Twist, Petal Pink and Pumpkin Pie to make balloons.

Stampin' Up! Zany Zoo Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the turtle and raccoon images from the Stampin’ Up! Zany Zoo Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I colored the images using Bronze, Crumb Cake Lemon Lime Twist and Smoky Slater Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images using the Zany Zoo Dies. I adhered the racoon and stool to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the turtle on the stool using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the balloons and clouds using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Zany Zoo Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a small panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Zany Zoo stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the music note image from the Zany Zoo stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink around the sentiment. I cut the sentiment out using the banner die from the Zany Zoo Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the top of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Pool Party card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Zany Zoo Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Zany Zoo stamp set in Tuxedo Black In on a panel of Basic Whtie. I stamped the turtle, racoon and music note images from the Zany Zoo stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the panel. I colored the images using Bronze, Crumb Cake, Lemon Lime Twist, Petal Pink, Pumpkin Pie and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Pool Party mat then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

Stampin' Up! Zany Zoo Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the singing turtle and music note images from the Zany Zoo stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Crumb Cake, Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the music noter image from the Zany Zoo stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope flap.

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   GVEBWYZ6

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   GVEBWYZ6

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
