Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some plans for the weekend. I’ll be working all day today, but I do have off tomorrow. I’ll be attending our monthly virtual meeting. I’m looking forward to seeing all my team members. Don’t forget you only have 3 more days to earn my Double Creative Stamping Designs Rewards. My special end on Tuesday May 9th at 11:59pm.

I have a quick card today using one of the new 2023-2025 In-Colors. The stamp set I used is a Reversable Set where you stamp one image then turn the stamp over and stamp another. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sea Turtle Photopolymer Stamp Set, Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set, Stampin’ Up! Happy Labels Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Hello Irresistible 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my CAS card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Hello Irresistible DSP to a Copper Clay mat using Stampin’ Sea. I adhered the layered panel to a Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the large turtle image from the Sea Turtle stamp set. I stamped the detailed turtle image from the Sea Turtle stamp set in Copper Clay Ink. I flipped the stamp over and stamped the solid turtle image in Copper Clay Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. I fussy cut the turtle using my Paper Snips. I adhered the turtle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the same panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Copper Clay Ink. I fussy cut the sentiment using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Labels stamp set in Copper Clay Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Hello Irresistible DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Copper Clay mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the smaller turtle image from the Sea Turtle stamp set on the envelope front. I stamped the detail image full strength Copper Clay Ink and the solid image with Copper Clay Ink, stamped off once on scrap paper. I adhered a panel of Hello Irresistible DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   BR9XGSTC

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:

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.
