Stampin’ Up! January-April 2023 Mini Catalog Paper Share & Updates

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and only 4 days left till Christmas. I didn’t have a card yesterday because I chose to make up my cookie platters to get them passed out to everyone before Christmas got here. No card today again since I finally got out shopping yesterday and finally got a chance to sit down and write out my Christmas cards. Nothing like waiting till the last minute.

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog, and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on January 5 and I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of January 9.

How shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Designer Series Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ x 6″ pieces (or 6″ x 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list.  I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!  Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs! Designer Series Paper Shares Do Not earn my Creative Stamping Designs Rewards.

Here are the Designer Series Paper Shares that I am offering from the new Mini Catalog:

New Designer Series Paper Share – $27.00 plus $8.00 for Priority Mail shipping

You will receive one 6×6 sheet of each design from the following DSP and specialty paper packs (the number behind the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):

  • By The Bay 6″ x 6″ Specialty – 12
  • Country Floral – 6
  • Country Gingham 6″ x 6″ – 6

In all, you’ll receive 89 – 6” x 6” sheets of designer or speciality paper!

Double DSP Share – $54.00 + $8.00 Shipping by Priority Mail – I’ll cut the designer paper sheets into 6×12 so that you’ll be able to get three A2 size card fronts from each sheet (except for the By The Bay, Country Gingham, Fancy Flora and Regency Park, you’ll get double sheets of those since they’re already precut).

FREE Gift From Me! – As a bonus for joining my share, you’ll also get a sampler of the Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper Packs!  I’ll send each participant in my share a sampler of papers from the Dainty Flowers, Day At The Farm, Favored Flowers and Dandy Designs Sale-a-bration DSP packs!

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Something Fancy Quick and Easy Thank You

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? This is the last week before Christmas. The pressure is on to get everything done. It would be much easier for me if I wasn’t working so much. That’s the disadvantage of working in retail this time of the year.

I have another sneak peek for you today, this time I let the DSP do all the work for me. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Thank You 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Something Fancy Bundle and the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Fancy Flora 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Thank You 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering my favorite pattern of the Fandy Flora DSP to a Soft Succulent mat using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Thank You 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered panel to a Soft Suede card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Thank You 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Something Fancy Cling Stamp Set in Soft Succulent Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Something Fancy Dies. I threaded a piece of Soft Succulent 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon through the top. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Thank You 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I adhered a strip of the Fancy Flora DSP to the side of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Soft Succulent mat then to the inside of the Soft Suede card base.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Thank You 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the detail flower image from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set in Soft Suede Ink, stamped off once on scrap paper, on the envelope front. I stamped the solid flower image from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set in Soft Suede Ink, stamped off twice on scrap paper, over the detail image. I stamped the leaf image in Soft Succulent Ink, stamped off once on scrap paper. I adhered a panel of Fancy Flora DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Thank You 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked the sneak peek coming in the January – April 2023 Mini Catalog. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Something Fancy Birthday

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. It’s the last weekend before Christmas, does everyone’ have their shopping done? I have very little done. I’ll be at work all day today and tomorrow so I will not be shopping. I’m hoping to get out Tuesday to do some shopping.

I have a sneak peek for you today using a couple bundles from the upcoming January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Something Fancy Bundle and the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora Bundle. Both bundles will be available in the upcoming January – April 2023 Mini Catalog. I also used the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting a Basic White card front using the Two-Tone Flora Dies. I adhered the die cut panel to a panel of Hues of Happiness DSP.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Something Fancy Cling Stamp Set in Night of Navy Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Something Fancy Dies. I adhered a piece of the new Pool Party 3/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon to the card front with a little Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Solid Faceted Gems to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the larger detail flower image from the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora Photopolymer Stamp Set in Night of Navy Ink. I stamped the solid flower image from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set in Pool Party Ink over the detail image. I stamped the leave in Granny Apple Green Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic White mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the larger detail flower image from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the solid flower image from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set in Pool Party Ink over the detail image and the leaves in Granny Apple Green Ink. I adhered a panel of Hues of Happiness DSP to the envelope flap.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! True Beauty for The Happy Ikin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you. I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Karen’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Color Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s colors.

Stampin' Up! True Beauty Just Because 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Awash In Beauty Suite for my card today.

These are our colors for this week.

Stampin' Up! True Beauty Just Because 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting a panel of Blushing Bride Brushstroke Specialty Paper using the lattice die from the Organic Beauty Dies. I adhered the die cut to a Merry Merlot card base.

Stampin' Up! True Beauty Just Because 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Organic Beauty Dies, I cut panels of Granny Apple Green, Mossy Meadow and Shimmer White cardstock. I cut one of the larger floral images from a panel of Awash In Beauty Designer Series Paper using my Paper Snips. I adhered the sprigs to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the fussy cut floral image using Stampin’ Dimensionals over the sprigs.

Stampin' Up! True Beauty Just Because 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! True Beauty Cling Stamp Set in Merry Merlot Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensional and Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels to the card front.

Stampin' Up! True Beauty Just Because 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the True Beauty stamp set in Merry Merlot Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the flower stem image from the True Beauty stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the side of the panel. I stamped the flower image from the True Beauty stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink on the stem. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat then to the inside of the Merry Merlot card base.

Stampin' Up! True Beauty Just Because 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the stem and flower images from the True Beauty stamp set in Granny Apple Green and Blushing Bride Inks on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Awash In Beauty DSP to the envelope flap.

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   7PTW7A3H

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the July – December 2022 Mini Catalog!  Unfortunately packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend. Can you believe there are only 11 days until Christmas. I guess I should get moving with getting my Christmas cards mailed, do some shopping and get my cookie trays put together.

Today’s card is one that we made last night for Mystery Stamping during our team meeting. We were given measurements of cardstock and DSP to pre-cut and then we were talked through putting it together. Everyone’s cards were similar, but at the same time different. I always look forward to out Mystery Stamping. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Thanks A Bunch Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper. Both items will be available January 5 FREE with a qualifying order during Sale-a-bration. The stamp set is free with a $50 order and the huge pack of Dandy Designs DSP is free with a $100 order.

I started by adhering a panel of Dandy Designs DSP to a Basic White mat. I adhered layered panel to a Calypso Coral card base using a very thin bead of Multipurpose Liquid Glue only on the 2 sides and bottom of the panel.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the large carrot image from the Thanks A Bunch stamp set. I stamped the detail image in Calypso Coral Ink 3 times. I stamped the full carrot image in Calypso Coral Ink, stamping off on scrap paper once, over the detailed image. I stamped the carrot top leaf image from the Thanks A Bunch stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink 3 times. I fussy cut the images using my Paper Snips. I adhered the leafy image to the top of the carrots using Glue Dots. I adhered the carrots to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Thanks A Bunch stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink on the Basic White panel. I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

For the inside panel, I stamped the sentiments from the Thanks A Bunch stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink on a Basic White Thick panel. I stamped the smallest bunch of carrot image from the Thanks A Bunch stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the leafy carrot top in Granny Apple Green Ink on top of the carrots. I folded the small panel of Dandy Designs DSP in half and adhered it to the top of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added Iridescent Pastel Gems to the card front and the pull tab.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the carrot image from the Thanks A Bunch stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope front the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Dandy Designs DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like my card and might have this on your free shopping list for January 5th. Happy Stamping!!

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   7PTW7A3H

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the July – December 2022 Mini Catalog!  Unfortunately packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up Framed Florets 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 Karen’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Celebrate”. We can interpret this however we want. I’m celebrating with a Birthday card. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Framed Florets Bundle along with the Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Fitting Florets DSP to a Blushing Bride card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. From a panel of Blushing Bride Brushstroke Specialty Paper, I cut the frame using my Framed Florets Dies. I adhered the frame to the card front. I stamped the sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the sentiment using the same frame die from the Framed Florets Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the inside of the frame using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Fitting Florets DSP, I cut 2 of the flower images out using the Framed Florets Dies. I adhered the flower images to the sides of the framed using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I brushed a panel of White Glimmer paper using my Blending Brush and Soft Succulent Ink. I cut 4 of the leaf dies from the Framed Florets Dies from the panel. I adhered the leaves to the card front just under the flower image using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I brushed the die cut flower images from the Fitting Florets DSP using my Clear Wink of Stella Brush. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Opal Rounds to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the leaf image from the Framed Florets stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink below the sentiment. I stamped the flower images on either side of the sentiment in Blushing Bride Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat then to the inside of the blushing Bride card base.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower images from the Framed Florets stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the leaf image around the flowers in Soft Succulent Ink. I adhered a panel of Fitting Florets DSP to the envelope flap.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   7PTW7A3H

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the July – December 2022 Mini Catalog!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product (excluding cardstock) up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
