Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful week so far.

Today’s card has very little stamping and is focusing on designer series paper. We will be making this card tonight at my Stamp Camp card class and just like yesterday’s, everyone will be making the same card, but just a little different. I’ve cut all different DSP and cardstock colors for each of the ladies. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Happy & Heartfelt Cling Stamp Set and the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered 3 panels of Hand Penned DSP to 3 Highland Heather mats. I adhered the 2 larger layered panels to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and the smaller panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I wrapped a piece of White Bakers Twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack around the card front twice and tied a bow.

On a panel of Highland Heather cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I sponged the edges of the panel with Highland Heather Ink using my Sponge Dauber. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Highland Heather card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Bumblebee Trinkets to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Happy & Heartfelt stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Hand Penned DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Highland Heather mat and then to the inside of the Highland Heather card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Hand Penned DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. 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.
