Stampin’ Up! Alphabest Halloween for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Mary’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Halloween Fun”. We can interpret this however we want. I’ve made a super simple and quick card for you today featuring some of the Host DSP.  Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Alphabest Halloween 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampi’ Up! Alphabest Bundle along with the Celebrate Everything Host Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Alphabest Halloween 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Celebrate Everything DSP to a Basic Black card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a smaller panel of Celebrate Everything DSP to the center of the panel.

Stampin' Up! Alphabest Halloween 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of the Silver Foil Paper, I cut the largest die from the Fabulous Frames Dies. I adhered the frame over the smaller panel of DSP using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Alphabest Halloween 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the letters from the Stampin’ Up! Alphabest Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the letters out using the Best Label Punch. I adhered the letters to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Classic Matte Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Alphabest Halloween 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Scary Cute Cling Stamp Set on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the sentiment out using the Deckled Rectangle Dies so that I would have torn looking edges. I adhered the sentiment to a Basic White panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered a strip of the Celebrate Everything DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Crushed Curry mat and then to the inside of the Basic Black card base. I added the outline panel of the Silver Foil frame I cut using the Fabulous Frames Dies.

Stampin' Up! Alphabest Halloween 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Celebrate Everything DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Leaves of Holly CAS

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Yesterday was such a rainy day here, but we needed it. I went up to my team leaders for our quarterly meeting, which is always so much fun. We stamped 3 different cards using the same set, got to chat a bit and see all the team member from all over the US via Zoom. Here is one of the cards we made yesterday. This one was designed by Akiko Sudano and I just LOVE it. If you have a lot of cards to make to send out this Christmas season, this is a perfect one that can be duplicated very easily.

Stampin' Up! Leaves of Holly CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Leaves of Holly Photopolymer Stamp Set to make my card today using just Stamps, Ink and Paper. I did add a little embellishment too.

Stampin' Up! Leaves of Holly CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the solid berry image from the Leaves of Holly stamp set on the bottom left corner in Real Red Ink. I stamped the detailed berry image from the Leaves of Holly stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink over the solid stamped image. I stamped the solid berry image on a piece of Masking Paper and fussy cut the image using my Paper Snips.

Stampin' Up! Leaves of Holly CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I covered the berries with the Masking Paper. I stamped the large, detailed holly leaf image from the Leaves of Holly stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink along the bottom of the panel. I stamped the solid holly leaf image in Shaded Spruce Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the detailed image. I stamped the smaller holly leaf image from the Leaves of Holly stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink along the side of the panel. I stamped the smaller solid holly leaf image in Shaded Spruce Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the detailed image.

Stampin' Up! Leaves of Holly CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Leaves of Holly stamp set in Real Red Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Real Red mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Shaded Spruce card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Leaves of Holly CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Leaves of Holly stamp set in Real Red Ink on a panel of Basic Whtie cardstock. I stamped the berries and small holly leaf images from the Leaves of Holly stamp set on the top of the panel the same as I did for the card front.

Stampin' Up! Leaves of Holly CAS 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the berry and holly images from the Leaves of Holly stamp set on the envelope front and flap the same as I did for the card.

Stampin’ Up! Soft Seedlings Josephs Coat

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. I hope everyone’s weekend is going well. I hope you will all take a moment of silence today for all the lives that were lost over 20 years ago. I remember the day like it was yesterday with all our phone going dead and just glued to the tv watching. My children were both in school in lock down until school was over and I could pick them up. I was so scared of what was happening and what could happen. It was a very sad and scary time.

Today’s card is one that we made at our Stamp Camp Class this past Tuesday night. I thought I’d have fun with a couple techniques with the ladies. This one I saw one of my team members make, Mary Deatherage, and I thought it would be perfect with our fall theme. It’s called the Josephs Coat Technique. You can see Mary’s video making this card Here. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Soft Seedlings Josephs Coat 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

Today’s card once again uses the Stampin’ Up! Soft Seedlings Cling Stamp Set. This is such a perfect set for fall cards and all kinds of techniques.

Stampin' Up! Soft Seedlings Josephs Coat 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started with a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock and using my Blending Brushes I added Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie Inks completely covering the panel. I set the panel to the side to dry completely. You can also use your Heat Tool on the #1 setting to dry the panel. You want to make sure the ink is completely dry before stamping or the embossing powder will stick to the ink and this technique will not work.

Stampin' Up! Soft Seedlings Josephs Coat 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Once the panel was completely dry, I stamped the large leaf image from the Soft Seedlings stamp set in Versamark Ink randomly around the panel. I sprinkled it with my Clear Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. Once the panel cooled, I used my Blending Brush again and brushed Early Espresso Ink all over the panel completely covering it again. Once I had the amount of ink I wanted, I took a paper towel and gently rubbed all over the panel wiping the ink off the embossed areas and letting the colors shine through. I adhered the panel to an Early Espresso mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Very Vanilla Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Soft Seedlings Josephs Coat 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a small panel of Very Vanilla cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Soft Seedlings stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered a piece of Old Olive ribbon from the Old Olive & Sahara Sand Twill Ribbon Combo Pack to the card front. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Textural Element to the card front just under the sentiment using a Glue Dot. I added a few Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Soft Seedlings Josephs Coat 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Soft Seedlings stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock. I used my Blending Brushes and added color to the large leaf image from the Soft Seedlings stamp set and stamped the leaves on the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to an Early Espresso mat and then to the inside of the Very Vanilla Thick card base

Stampin' Up! Soft Seedlings Josephs Coat 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the large leaf image from the Soft Seedlings stamp set on the envelope front and flap in Cajun Craze and Pumpkin Pie Inks.

Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Triple Time

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have something fun planned or maybe relaxing is the plan. It’s supposed to be a beautiful weekend here in NJ. I’m hoping to get in a walk or 2 with Coraline to get some of her energy out. Tomorrow, I get to visit my team leader Amy for our meeting and see her dog, Ginny. Ginny always knows I’m coming, and I bring her some kind of treat from the bakery.

Today’s card I used a set from the Annual Catalog doing one of my favorite techniques. This card used Stamps, Ink and Paper all layered together. I added a couple embellishment to dress it up a bit. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Cling Stamp Set for my Triple Time card today.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Forever Fern stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the smallest panel of Basic White cardstock. I took the 3 panels of Basic White cardstock and lightly adhered them together using a tiny amount of Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I randomly stamped the leaf and splatter images from the Forever Fern stamp set in Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Pumpkin Pie and Rich Razzleberry Inks on the layered panels.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the 2 smaller stamped panels to Rich Razzleberry mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the larger Basic White panel to the Rich Razzleberry card base using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the other 2 panels to the card front matching up the leaf images. I added a few Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Forever Fern stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the leaf and splatter images from the Forever Fern stamp set in Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Pumpkin Pie and Rich Razzleberry Inks on the top and bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mossy Meadow mat and then to the inside of the Rich Razzleberry card base.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf images from the Forever Fern stamp set on the envelope front and flap the same as I did for the card.

Stampin’ Up! Celebrating You Baby Card for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday blog. I hope everyone had a wonderful week and you are looking forward to a fun weekend. I’m working all day Saturday, but Sunday is our in-person team meeting. I look forward to this every quarter meeting up with everyone in person and on Zoom. It’s fun stamping with friends and just getting together to chat.

I needed a baby card for work, so I thought I’d make a fun fold one. They are having a lunch for my boss in 2 weeks and I’m taking up the collection for him, so I figured I’d make the card to go with it. He’s going to be a 1st time dad next month. I missed doing my Wednesday Facebook Live since I got stuck at work later than I expected. I’m planning on being back next week though. I’m hoping to start doing YouTube lives soon too, thanks to all that have subscribed to my channel and made this possible. I’ll be posting something once I figure out what day and time will work best. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Celebrating You Baby Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Celebrating You Cling Stamp Set along with the Happy Forest Friends Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Celebrating You Baby Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by scoring a folding a Sahara Sand card base. On the front I made a tiny mark at 3″ from the bottom of the card base. I scored from the 3″ mark to the top of the 4 1/4″ center score line and folded the corner forward.

Stampin' Up! Celebrating You Baby Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I took a panel of Happy Forest Friends DSP and made a mark 2 7/8″ from the bottom of the panel and cut from that mark to the top left corner. I adhered the panel to the card base under the folded piece using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Dry fit the panel first just in case you need to trim the bottom a bit. I adhered the folded panel down on top of the DSP.

Stampin' Up! Celebrating You Baby Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using my Layering Circles Dies, I cut a panel of Happy Forest Friends DSP with the little bear on it. I cut a coordinating scalloped circle from the Layering Circles Dies out of a panel of Calypso Coral cardstock. I adhered the die cut DSP to the scalloped circle using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered circles to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Celebrating You stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink. Using the Double Oval Punch, I punched the sentiment out of the solid oval and the scalloped oval from a panel of Calypso Coral cardstock. I adhered the sentiment to the scalloped oval using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and a Glue Dot.

Stampin' Up! Celebrating You Baby Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I adhered a panel of Happy Forest Friends DSP to the top of a Calypso Coral Mat. I stamped the sentiment from the Celebrating You stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink below the 1st sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel below the DSP on the Calypso Coral mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the inside of the Sahara Sand card base.

Stampin' Up! Celebrating You Baby Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

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

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends.  I hope everyone is having a productive week. We’re halfway through and on our way to the weekend. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to go live today on my Facebook page since today’s the first day I’m back in the office since last Thursday. I will post something on my Facebook page if I will be going live at 4pm ET.

It’s time for an inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts after a few weeks off for the summer. The inspiration photo is Change of Seasons. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Very Best Occasions Cling Stamp Set and the Tea Boutique 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my clean and simple card today.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge #179.  How are you inspired by this photo?

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering 2 strips of Tahitian Tide cardstock to a Tea Boutique DSP card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the largest butterfly image from the Butterfly Brilliance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the butterfly out using the Brilliant Wings Dies. I then colored the butterfly image using my So Saffron, Sweet Sorbet and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the butterfly to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals just in the center bending the wings up a bit.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Very Best Occasions stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Label Me Fancy Punch. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2022-2024 In-Color Matte Decorative Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Very Best Occasions stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the butterfly image from the Butterfly Brilliance stamp set on either side of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my So Saffron, Sweet Sorbet and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Tahitian Tide mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the butterfly image from Butterfly Brilliance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the butterfly using my So Saffron, Sweet Sorbet and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Tea Boutique DSP to the envelope flap.

We created six new dies that coordinate with stamp sets in the 2022–2023 Annual Catalog and the July–December 2022 Mini Catalog. These coordinating dies will only be available during this promotion and will not be offered in any catalog.

Stampin’ Up! Willow Tree Get Well Card

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day weekend and were able to do something fun.

I played with a new set to me today from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. As most of you know, I do not like the color yellow and I especially do not like Crushed Curry. That’s what I used today. Even though I don’t like it, I do like it for fall cards. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Willow Tree Get Well 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Willow Tree Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Through It Together Cling Stamp Set and Butterfly Kisses 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Willow Tree Get Well 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Butterfly Kisses DSP to a Garden Green mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Crushed Curry card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Willow Tree Get Well 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the tree trunk image from the Stampin’ Up! Willow Tree Photopolymer Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink. I stamped the tree top image from the Willow Tree stamp set in Crushed Curry Ink on the tree trunk. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the smaller tree top image from the Willow Tree stamp set in Crushed Curry Ink and cut the image out using my Willow Dies. Using my Willow Dies, I cut the leaf dies from a panel of Crushed Curry cardstock. I adhered the leaf dies to the stamped image using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the die cut tree top image to the stamped image using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Willow Tree Get Well 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the bottom of the panel, I stamped the solid grass image from the Willow Tree stamp set in Garden Green Ink below the tree. I stamped the detailed grass image from the Willow Tree stamp set in Garden Green Ink around the solid image. I stamped the bunny image from the Willow Tree stamp set in Gray Granite Ink. I adhered the panel to a Garden Green mat. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Through It Together stamp set in Soft Suede Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Brushed Brass Butterflies to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Willow Tree Get Well 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiments from the Through It Together stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Willow Tree stamp set in Crushed Curry Ink along the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Garden Green mat and then to the inside of the Crushed Curry card base.

Stampin' Up! Willow Tree Get Well 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of Butterfly Kisses DSP on the envelope front. I stamped the small willow leaf image from the Willow Tree stamp set in Crushed Curry Ink on the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Happiness Abounds CAS

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. I hope you have the day off and have some picnic plans or maybe just taking some time to relax. My plan was to try to get ahead at my card table today. We’ll see what happens, my husband decided to invite a bunch of people over for a barbeque which I am NOT prepared for.

I have a quick and easy card for you today that I was able to make so quickly it scared me. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Happiness Abounds 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Happiness Abounds Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Designer Tags Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Happiness Abounds 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the sentiment from Happiness Abounds stamp set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Night of Navy cardstock. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder from the Basic Embossing Powders and set it using the Heat Tool.

Stampin' Up! Happiness Abounds 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Designer Tags Dies, I cut the flower image on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Night of Navy panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Happiness Abounds 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut the butterfly die from the Designer Tags Dies from a panel of 2022-2024 In-Color Glimmer Paper. I adhered the butterfly to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Parakeet Party 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon and adhered it using a Glue Dot. I added a few Rhinestones Basic Jewels by the flower and Classic Matte Dots on the butterfly.

Stampin' Up! Happiness Abounds 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the rose image from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on the bottom of the panel. I masked the rose using a Post-It Note, which I cut the rose out of, and stamped the leaf image from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Parakeet Party Ink. I colored the leaves using my Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I colored parts of the rose using my Orchid Oasis Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Night of Navy mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Happiness Abounds 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose image from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on the envelope front and flap. I masked the rose with a Post-It Note and stamped the leaf image from the Happiness Abounds around the rose in Parakeet Party Ink. I colored part of the rose and the leaves in using my Orchid Oasis and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers.
