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 Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Theme Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s Theme.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Happy Hedgehogs Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set, Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper for my card today.
This is our theme for this week.
I started by adhering a panel of Fresh As A Daisy DSP to a Bubble Bath mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic Whtie card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a strip of the Bright & Beautiful DSP to a Bubble Bath mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the tree image from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel so it looked like a branch. I stamped the bird image from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the branch and the butterfly image to the left. I colored the images using Azure Afternoon, Bubble Bath, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake, Lemon Lolly and Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Markers.
I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the artwork to a Bubble Bath mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the tree and butterfly images from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set on the panel. I colored the images using Bubble Bath, Crumb Cake, Lemon Lolly and Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Bubble Bath mat then to the inside of the Basic White card base.
To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tree, bird and butterfly images from the Happy Hedgehog stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images with Asure Afternoon, Bubble Bath, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake, Lemon Lolly and Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Fresh As A Daisy DSP to the envelope flap.

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS: XMVFTAU4
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 January-April 2023 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:
- 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….
- 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.
