Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I had my OnTour event yesterday and it was fun seeing some of the new products being used. I can’t wait for mine to arrive. I’ll be at work all day today having fun petting puppies and giving them treats.

I have a sneak peek for you today. I received a stamp set for attending OnTour and I couldn’t wait to play with it. I made a clean and simple card using just Stamps, Ink and Paper (along with a little embellishment). I also did the masking technique. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness Photopolymer Stamp Set for my CAS card today.

I started by cutting a Post-It Note using the 2nd smallest hexagon die from the Beautiful Shapes Dies. I adhered the hexagon Post-It Note to the center of a Basic White card front. Using my Blending Brush, I added Blushing Bride Ink

I stamped the leaf image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade Ink on either side of the hexagon mask. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set on the leaf images in Misty Moonlight Ink.

I removed the hexagon Post-It and stamped the sentiment from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. I added a few Blushing Bride Adhesive-Backed Hexagons to the card front. I adhered the card front to a Just Jade mat and then to a Misty Moonlight mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Blushing Bride card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set over the leaf image in Misty Moonlight Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the inside of the Blushing Bride card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral images from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade and Misty Moonlight Inks on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my CAS card and might just have this set on your shopping list. I’ll be making more with it very soon. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! New Shipping Fees Beginning April 1

I want to let you know about a change to Stampin’ Up!’s shipping and handling pricing. Starting April 1, the minimum shipping charge will increase by $1.00, from $6.95 to $7.95—or by one percentage point, from 10% to 11% of the total order amount—whichever is greater.

If you ever use the expedited shipping options, those fees are going up a bit too. Here are the new fees for expedited shipping:

Next Day Upgrade: $38.00 USD ($3.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
2nd Day Upgrade: $23.00 USD ($3.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
3 Day Shipping Upgrade: $15.00 USD ($5.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
The expedited shipping option rates above are calculated in addition to the standard shipping rate (e.g., the next day shipping option would cost $7.95 USD or 11%—whichever is greater—plus $38.00 USD)

I want to make sure you’re aware of this change, as it impacts both you and me. Stampin’ Up! has worked to keep the increase as minimal as possible so they can continue bringing you the unique, high-quality, and coordinated paper crafting products that you love.
