Good Thursday morning my fellow stampers. Hope your week is going well. The weekend is coming up quickly and our first month of the new year is gone.
For my card today I CASE’d a card from my Upline Jaimie Babarczy. You can see her card here. This is another card we made at my workshop. My stampers used the Lovely Lipstick Ink and cardstock. I changed mine a little and used Flirty Flamingo. Take a look.
I started with a Crumb Cake card base and adhered a panel of the All My Love Designer Series Paper to the front using Snail.
On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the heart cluster from the Stampin’ Up Forever Lovely stamp set down both sides in Flirty Flamingo Ink. Using my Big Shot, I cut out 2 of the Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies in Flirty Flamingo cardstock.
I placed the 2 hearts on the artwork panel the way I thought I’d like them and stamped the Love You sentiment from the Forever Lovely stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink inside the bottom heart. I then adhered the hearts to the artwork using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the artwork to a Whisper White mat using Snail then adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On the inside I stamped the heart cluster from the Forever Lovely stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink, stamping off once, on a Whisper White panel. I then stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink over the hearts. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat using Snail then adhered it to the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Product List





















I added a Melon Mambo Glitter Enamel Dot to the artwork. I adhered the card front to a So Saffron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On the inside I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Amazing Life stamp set in Pacific Point Ink on a Whisper White panel. I stamped the scroll from the same stamp set above the sentiment in Mango Melody Ink, stamping off once. I stamped just the top of the same scroll in the corners in Mango Melody Ink. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the So Saffron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.












I started with a Mossy Meadow card front and adhered a piece of Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper to it using Snail. I then took a strip of Petal Pink cardstock and ran it through my Big Shot using the Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I adhered the Petal Pink strip on the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I started with a piece of Vellum cardstock and stamped the Well from the Bright Wishes stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with my White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool. I colored the image in with my Crumb Cake, Night of Navy, Old Olive, Smoky Slate and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I did the coloring on the back of the Vellum, not on the embossed side. Using my Big Shot, I cut the image out with my Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies. I also cut a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock the same size as the rectangle to adhere under the Vellum image.
I cut a rectangle frame out in Old Olive cardstock using the same size framelit that I cut the Vellum image. I adhered the Vellum image to the Very Vanilla cardstock using small spots of Snail so that you wouldn’t see it. I adhered the Very Vanilla artwork and the Old Olive frame to a Night of Navy card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I wrapped a piece of Old Olive Linen Thread around the card front. I made a bow separately and adhered it to the card front on the Linen Thread with a Glue Dot. I adhered the card front to a Thick Very Vanilla card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope. I stamped the Well image from the Bright Wishes stamp set on the front of the envelope and colored it in the same as I did for the card front. It came out a little darker since I colored the card front on the backside of the Vellum.




















The other challenge I joined in with is Colour and Sketches #305. Stop by to see what everyone has made at
I’ve made a very clean and simple card today for the 2 challenges. I don’t usually do simple, but every once in a while I like to add one in. Take a look.
I started by cutting 2 mats in Balmy Blue cardstock. On the larger mat I adhered a piece of Subtles 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper in Balmy Blue using Snail. I adhered the matted DSP to a Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Colorful Seasons stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink. I adhered the stamped panel to the smaller Balmy Blue mat using Snail. I then adhered it to the Night of Navy card base, using Stampin’ Dimensionals, over lapping the matted DSP panel.
On the inside I stamped the larger snowflake from the Colorful Seasons stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink, stamping off once, across a Whisper White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Night of Navy Ink over the snowflakes. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Here is what I came up with for all 3 challenges. Take a look.
I started with a Balmy Blue card front and stamped the sand/shells in Sahara Sand Ink and the bubbles In Balmy Blue Ink from the Stampin’ Up Magical Mermaid stamp set on it. I then took a panel of Soft Sea Foam and stamped the seaweed multiple times, using my Stamparatus, across it. I colored some of the seaweed in with my Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Write Marker. I then ran it through my Big Shot using the Seaside Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Using Multipurpose Liquid Glue I adhered the Soft Sea Foam panel to the card front.
On a piece of Shimmery White cardstock I stamped the mermaid from the Magical Mermaid stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the mermaid in using my Light Calypso Coral, Light Highland Heather, Ivory, Light Mint Macaron, Light Pool Party and Light Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. The Shimmery White paper gave the mermaid a really pretty shimmer after it was colored. I fussy cut the mermaid and adhered her to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a strip of Shimmery White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Magical Mermaid stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink. Using my Triple Banner Punch I made it into a banner and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Balmy Blue card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.


















The next one I played along with is Global Design Project Color Challenge #173. Be sure to stop by
Here is what I came up with for the 2 challenges Take a look
I started with a Petal Pink card front and using my Big Shot I embossed it with my Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I then cut out the largest flourish from the Flourish Thinlits Dies in Soft Sea Foam cardstock 2 times. I adhered the one flourish on top of the second to make it a little thicker. I sponged the die cut with my Soft Sea Foam Ink then adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added some Wink Of Stella to the flowers on the die cut.
On a small strip of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Accented Blooms stamp set in So Saffron Ink. I cut the strip into a banner using my Triple Banner Punch and sponged the edges with the So Saffron Ink. I adhered the banner to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added a few So Saffron Share What You Love Artisan Pearls to the card front and the banner. I adhered the card front to a Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a small piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Meant To Be Cling Stamp Set in Cherry Cobbler Ink. Using the 5th from the largest Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies I cut the sentiment out with my Big Shot. I adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and added a Coastal Cabana Glitter Enamel Dot to the corner.
On a panel of Petal Pink Cardstock I stamped the floral heart image from the Meant To Be stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink twice. I then cut the 2 hearts out using the Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies. I also cut 2 of the same size hearts out in Cherry Cobbler cardstock for the frame around the stamped hearts. I adhered the hearts to the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Berry Burst card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.











Be sure to stop by Inspire. Create to see all the projects and to play along. Here are their fun colors for this challenge.
I used the Stampin’ Up Hello Cupcake stamp set. It’s one of the FREE products from Sale-A-Bration with a $50 order. I started with a Pineapple Punch card front. Using my Stamparatus I stamped the Sprinkled with Love sentiment from the Hello Cupcake in Pineapple Punch Ink. I adhered the card front to a Lovely Lipstick mat using Snail.
On a strip of Pineapple Punch cardstock I stamped the Sprinkled with Love sentiment in Lovely Lipstick and made a banner. I adhered the banner using Stampin’ Dimensionals to the left of the artwork. I added a couple of the Candle Embellishments to the cupcake and a Happiness Blooms Enamel Dot in Call Me Clover on the artwork. I adhered the card front to a Pineapple Punch card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On the inside I stamped the cupcake from the Hello Cupcake stamp set the same as I did for the artwork, but I stamped off twice to get a light image on a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Night of Navy Ink over the top of the cupcake. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Night of Navy mat using Snail then adhered it to the Pineapple Punch card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.










I started with a Tranquil Tide card front and adhered a panel of Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper to it using Snail. I wrapped a piece of 3/8″ Gold Metallic-Edge Ribbon around the bottom section of the card front. I then adhered the card front to a Mint Macaron card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. If you really like the Tranquil Tide, now is the time to grab it. It will be going away in June, so it would be best to get it now before it hits the retiring list. It’s such a beautiful rich teal color. I’m surely going to miss it.
Using my Stamparatus, I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Stampin’ Up One For All stamp set in Tranquil Tide Ink. By using the Stamparatus if the image wasn’t dark enough I was able to re-stamp it perfectly. I then stamped the streamer and the birthday hat from the Stampin’ Up Around The Corner stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink. I adhered the artwork to a Tranquil Tide Mat using Snail then adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added a few Gold Metallic Pearls to the artwork to add a little bling.
For the inside I used my Tranquil Tide and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Write Markers to color just the sentiment part of one of the other images from the One For All stamp set. I stamped the sentiment in the center of a Very Vanilla panel then adhered it to the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card, I adhered a piece of the Share What You Love Specialty DSP to a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope flap. There you have it a very quick and easy card that looks like it took you hours to make.
