Hello Stampin’ Friends. No card for today. Today was a very sad and hard day for my family. We lost my best friend, sidekick, walking buddy and shadow. My fur baby Jasmine had to cross over the Rainbow Bridge. She gave us 14 of the most wonderful years ever and I will miss her more than anything you can ever imagine. My days won’t be complete for a while without her. Every morning we would share my fruit and usually whatever else I would have. I’m not going to know what to do with my pizza crust anymore. I haven’t eaten pizza crust for 14 years, she always got that. Jasmine was one very special puppy; the princess of the house and she will be in our hearts forever. Please bear with me over the weekend if I don’t post any cards.

Rest In Peace Girl Friend till we meet again.

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to our July-December 2022 Mini Catalog Blog Hop. If you’ve hopped over from Jaimie Barbarczy’s blog, thank you for stopping by. We thought this would be a great way for you to see some of the beautiful products that will be available coming up Mini Catalog starting on July 1, 2022. We each got to pick a stamp set, bundle or suite that we wanted to feature. I hope you enjoy seeing everyone’s beautiful projects. Here’s mine using a new stamp set from the Mini Catalog.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sunkissed Cling Stamp Set (available July 1st) along with the Design A Daydream Host Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Design A Daydream DSP to a Pool Party card base. On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the palm tree image from the Sunkissed stamp set. I colored the stamp using my Crumb Cake, Garden Green, Granny Apple Green, Parakeet Party, Soft Suede, and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Write Markers, I huffed a couple times on the stamp and stamped it on the Basic White panel. I cut the image out using my Deckled Rectangle Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Sunkissed stamp set in Pool Party Ink on the top of the panel. I adhered the stamped image to a Pool Party mat.

On a small panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the chair & umbrella image from the Sunkissed stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using my Crumb Cake, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya and Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the image using my Paper Snips.

I adhered the layered panel to the left side of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the fussy cut image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Fine Sparkle Adhesive-Backed Gems (available July 1st) to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Sunkissed stamp set in Pool Party Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the sand and shells image from the Sunkissed stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink along the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pool Party mat and then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sand and shells image from the Sunkissed stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink along the bottom front of the envelope. I adhered a panel of the Design A Daydream DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card, and this will be one on your list to buy.

Product List

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I hope you were able to do something fun.

Today’s card is the last card that we made at our Creativity Now Event last Saturday. This one I did the way they suggested. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Splendid Thoughts Bundle along with the Splendid Day Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Through It Together Cling Stamp Set for today’s card.

I started by embossing a Calypso Coral card front using the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. Using my Blending Brush and the Craft White Ink, I brushed some ink over the bricks. I wrapped a piece of Soft Sea Foam 3/8″ Seam Binding Ribbon around the panel and tied a bow. I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Petal Pink cardstock I stamped the eucalyptus image from the Stampin’ Up! Splendid Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. On a panel of Soft Sea Foam cardstock, I stamped the large leaf image from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the 2 stamped panels out using my Splendid Stems Dies. From the panel of Basic White cardstock, I cut out 4 more of the leaf dies from the Splendid Stems Dies. I cut the half-moon die from a panel of Splendid Day DSP. On the Basic White panel I stamped the sentiment from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips.

On the embossed panel I adhered the die cut pieces with Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the half-moon die on the bottom of the stems using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment to the half-moon die using Glue Dots. I added a few Pearls Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Through It Together stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the eucalyptus and leaf images from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Calypso Coral mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the eucalyptus and leaf images from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images in using my Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Splendid Day DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Products used for my card will be available for purchase starting this Friday July 1st. If you are not a customer of mine yet and would like a copy of the catalog, please drop me a note at creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com. I’d be more than happy to put one in the mail. Happy Stamping!!

Product List

Good Friday morning my stamping friends welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Are you ready for the weekend? I know I sure am. It’s been one of those weeks for me. My poor fur baby spent Monday at the ER, she was having seizures all day. She’s doing better, but it’s a long way off before she’s back to herself. She’s able to walk a little better now, but she’s still very wobbly, she’s walking like she’s drunk. On top of that on Monday, a very sentimental tree of mine had to come down. My dad planted a Bradford Pear tree in my front yard about 28-29 years ago, which was when we move into our house. The tree split down the middle. One bad storm, and the tree was coming down right onto my house. Unfortunately, we had to have it cut down and now my house is so bright inside. That tree was taller than my house and provided my entire front yard with shade. I’m ready for this week to end.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. I actually have 2 versions of the card to show you. Here are my cards for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Cup of Tea Bundle along with the Tea Boutique 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my cards today.

I started by embossing a Fresh Freesia panel using the Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder. I adhered a panel of Tea Boutique DSP to the top of the panel. I scored a panel of Tea Boutique DSP at 2″, 2 1/4″, 3″, 3 1/4″, 4″, 4 1/4″, 5″ & 5 1/4″. Fold the 1/4″ score lines into Mountain Folds and the others into Valley Folds.

Here is the template for the half drapery fold panel.

I adhered the drapery folded panel to the bottom of the embossed panel making sure to have the same edge as the top panel. I used a strip of Tear & Tape along the top edge of the drapery fold. This holds all the folds in place. I wrapped a piece of the Orchid Oasis 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon around the layered panel securing it on the back with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the card front to an Orchid Oasis card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the Teacup Dies, I cut the solid cup from a panel of Fresh Freesia cardstock. I cut the detailed teacup from a panel of 2022-2024 In-Color Glimmer Paper. I cut the solid lemon from a panel of So Saffron cardstock. I cut the detailed lemon from a panel of Basic White cardstock that I colored with my So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Marker. On the panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the tea tag outline image from the Stampin’ Up! cup of Tea Photopolymer Stamp Set in Fresh Freesia Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink inside the tag. I cut the tag using the Teacup Dies. I adhered the detailed teacup to the solid teacup die and the detailed lemon to the solid lemon die. I adhered a piece of White Bakers Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack to the back of the teacup and the tea tag using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the teacup, tag and lemon to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2022-2024 In-Color Matte Decorative Dots to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment form the Cup of Tea stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the image using my Fresh Freesia and Orchid Oasis Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat and then to the inside of the Orchid Oasis card base. If you watched my video, I had lost my lemon and had to make another one. I found my lemon and decided to add it to the inside of the card next to the teacup.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it using my Fresh Freesia and Orchid Oasis Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I adhered a panel of Tea Boutique DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments on my Facebook page under my post. I’d love to see your take on the card. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

You can also view the video on my YouTube channel Here. Happy Stamping!!
