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

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! Layering Leaves CAS

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope you week is starting out productive. After work yesterday I was able to get a little more gardening done. I had to try to get a larger cage on my tomato plant. My cherry tomato grew out of the one I had around it. I ended up building my own around it with stakes and string, it was too large to get the cage on. I also cut down a tree that didn’t make it after the drought we had last summer. I tried keeping up with the watering, but it needed natures rain which we didn’t get.

While I was outside, I got inspired by one of my gardens. I have these tiny orange flowers that have taken over a few of my gardens. They are so pretty and attract butterflies, hummingbirds and bees. I’ve seen the butterflies and many bees so far. The one garden that has a lot of these also has red and yellow tiger lilies. That’s the garden my card colors were inspired by. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today using Stamps, Ink and Paper, I did have to add a little embellishment though.

I joined in with the CAS On Friday Challenge #259 – Leaves.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White card front.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I randomly stamped the leaves and splotch images from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green and Daffodil Delight Inks around the edges of the card front. I adhered the card front to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Glossy Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic Whtie. I randomly stamped the leaves and splotch image from the Layering Leaves stamp set around the edges in Real red, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Gren and Daffodil Delight Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaves and splotch images from the Layering Leaves stamp set randomly on the envelope front and flap in Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green and Daffodil Delight Inks.

Stampin’ Up! Darling Details Birthday

Good Monday morning stamping friends, Happy Juneteenth!! How was everyone’s weekend? I hope you some fun plans and were able to enjoy Father’s Day. We had a nice quiet day. My daughter and I cooked for my husband, and he was able to have a relaxing day. Today is my son’s birthday and I’m hoping to see him for a little bit at some point today. His summer camps have started, and they are all day every day. He coaches soccer for kids of all ages. He’ll be in a different location every week, so I’ll possibly get to see him if he’s close to home. He turned 28 today, he was my little preemie arriving a month early. He’s now 6′ tall and has made up for being early.

I received a new bundle last week and couldn’t wait to play with it. There are so many dies, I didn’t know what to play with first. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Darling Details Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Darling Details Bundle along with the Basics 3D Embossing Folder, 2 3/8″ Circle Punch and Vellum Basics Paper for my card today.

My colors are from Sunday Stamps Challenge #311.

My design is from Hand Stamped Sentiments #416.

Stampin' Up! Darling Details Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Moody Mauve cardstock to a Vellum Basics card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Balmy Blue card bae using Stampin’ Seal only behind the square panel.

Stampin' Up! Darling Details Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Darling Details Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pebbled Path Ink on the top of a Basic Whtie panel. I cut the bottom of the panel using the Darling Details Dies. I weaved a piece of Balmy Blue 3/8″ Double-Stitched Ribbon through the die cut bottom and tied a bow. I adhered the panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Darling Details Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut the circle using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch from a panel of Basic Whtie. I embossed the circle using the Basics 3D Embossing Folder. On the panel of Basic Whtie, I stamped the larger detailed flower image form the Darling Details stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink. I stamped the larger solid flower image from the Darling Details stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the detailed image. I cut the flower out using the Darling Details Dies. Using the Darling Details Dies, I cut the small flower sprig from a panel of Cherry Cobbler cardstock twice, and I cut the detailed flower die from a panel of Moody Mauve cardstock. I adhered the stamped die cut flower to the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the 2 flower sprigs behind the stamped flower using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered circle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the detailed flower die under the circle using Glue Dots. I added a few 2023-2025 In-Color Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Darling Details Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiments from the Darling Details stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the outlined flower image from the Darling Details stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the solid flower image over the detailed image in Moody Mauve Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Balmy Blue mat then to the inside of the Balmy Blue card base.

Stampin' Up! Darling Details Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the larger flower image out line form the Darling Details stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink on the envelope front and flap. I stamped the solid flower image from the Darling Details stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink over the outlined image, stamping off on scrap paper once.

Stampin' Up! Darling Details Birthday 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

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

The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift.

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

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.

Product List

Stampin’ Up! Sweet & Precious Masculine

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. Happy Father’s Day to any father’s out there. I hope you have some fun plans in the works. I’m not sure what we’ll be doing today yet.

Today’s card is a pretty quick one that could be for men or women. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Sweet & Precious 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sweet & Precious Cling Stamp Set along with the Deckled Rectangle Dies and Fern 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

My design is from Try Stampin’ On Tuesday Challenge #610.

Stampin' Up! Sweet & Precious 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Wild Wheat card front using the Fern Embossing Folder. I wrapped a piece of Pecan Pie 1/2″ Bordered Ribbon around the panel securing it on the back with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the embossed panel to a Wild Wheat card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Sweet & Precious 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the giraffe image from the Sweet & Precious stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I colored the image using Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the Deckled Rectangle Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Sweet & Precious stamp set on the top of the panel in Pecan Pie Ink.

Stampin' Up! Sweet & Precious 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the stamped image to a Pecan Pie mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Opaque Ovals to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Sweet & Precious 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Sweet & Precious stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I stamped the giraffe image from the Sweet & Precious stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the side of the panel. I colored the image with Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Wild Wheat card base.

Stampin' Up! Sweet & Precious 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the giraffe image from the Sweet & Precious stamp set on the envelope front in Pecan Pie Ink. I colored the image with Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Wild Wheat cardstock to the envelope flap that I embossed using the Fern Embossing Folder.

Stampin’ Up! Phrases For All CAS Birthday

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend!! I hope you have some plans you’re working on. I’ll be at work all day today, but I do have off tomorrow, YAY!! I finally got our to get some gardening done yesterday, but after about 3 hours in the sun i Ias getting dizzy and hot. All of a sudden, the dark clouds rolled in, the thunder started, and it started pouring. Of course, I got soaked, but it did cool me off. I had to clean up and go in for the rest of the rainy day and just had to craft for a bit.

Today I have a speedy quick CAS card for you that took maybe 5 minutes to make. It’s the perfect card if you are getting ready to leave to go to a party and you realize you forgot the card. Stamps, Ink and Paper, not even an embellishment. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Phrases For All CAS Birthday 1 creativestampiungdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Phrases For All Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my CAS card today.

My design is from Global Design Project Challenge #398.

Stampin' Up! Phrases For All CAS Birthday 2 creativestampiungdesigns.com

I started by stamping the large sentiment from the Phrases For All stamp set in Lost lagoon Ink on a panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP. I used the Bubble Bath Ombre panel.

Stampin' Up! Phrases For All CAS Birthday 3 creativestampiungdesigns.com

I adhered the DSP panel to a Lost Lagoon mat on an angle using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Phrases For All CAS Birthday 4 creativestampiungdesigns.com

On a strip of Pool Party, I stamped the small sentiment from the Phrases For All stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Phrases For All CAS Birthday 5 creativestampiungdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Phrases For All stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on a panel of Basic Whtie. I adhered 2 strips of Bright & Beautiful DSP to either side of the panel. I stamped the outline heart image from the Phrases For All stamp set on either side of the sentiment in Lost Lagoon Ink. I stamped the solid heart image from the Phrases For All stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the outline image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Lost Lagoon mat then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

Stampin' Up! Phrases For All CAS Birthday 6 creativestampiungdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the outline heart image from the Phrases For All stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the solid heart image over the outline image in Lost Lagoon Ink, stamping off once scrap paper. I adhered a panel of Bright & Beautiful 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! Earthen Textures for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends welcome to my fun fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? I can’t believe we’re in the middle of the month already. I hope you are ready for the weekend. I’ll be working all day tomorrow, but I do have off on Sunday. Is anyone making plans for Father’s Day?

Today’s card I made on YouTube Live on Wednesday. It was my first time, so I still have a bit of learning to do. 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 link to my YouTube channel. Here is my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures Bundle along with the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by scoring and folding the Misty Moonlight card base as listed below in the measurements. I adhered 3 panels of Earthen Elegance DSP to 3 Copper Clay mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the 3 layered panel to the Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Lqiud Glue.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the small card base to the large card base using Stampin’ Seal +. On panels of Earthen Elegance DSP, I stamped the 2 vase images from the Stampin’ Up!

I stamped the plume image from the Earthen Textures stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink on a panel of Basic White. I cut the image out using the Earthen Textures Dies. Using the Earthen Textures Dies, I cut panels of Pretty Peacock, Pebbled Path and Wild Wheat. I adhered the vases to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the die cut pieces in the vases using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the sentiment form the Earthen Textures stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Earthen Elegance DSP. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Glue Dots. I added a few Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins to the card front and a 2023-2025 In-Color Dot to the center of the fan die.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Earthen Textures stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic Whtie. I stamped the plume image from the Earthen Textures stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whit panel to a Copper Clay mat then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

Stampin’ Up! So Refreshing for The Happy Inkin’ 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 Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Theme Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s theme.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Patchwork 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! So Refreshing Bundle along with the Patchwork Pieces Dies, Basics 3D Embossing Folder and Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our theme this week.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Patchwork 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Calypso Coral card front using the Basics 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the card front to a Calypso Coral card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I embossed a panel of Basic White cardstock using the Basics 3D Embossing Folder. Using the Patchwork Pieces Dies, I cut the embossed panel and 2 panels of Delightfully Eclectic DSP.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Patchwork 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Garden Green, I adhered the pieces to complete 1 using a different panel for each section. Doing this will give you 3 card fronts to use on 3 different cards. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the pitcher and glass images from the Stampin’ Up! So refreshing Photopolymer Stamp Set in Smoky Slate Ink. I stamped the pitcher and glass fill images in Bubble Bath Ink. I stamped the ice cute image from the So Refreshing stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink inside the pitcher and glasses, stamping off once on scrap paper. I stamped the leaf image from the So Refreshing stamp set in Garden Green Ink and the leaf fill image in Garden Green Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. I cut the images out using the So Refreshing Dies. I stamped the lemon and lemon slice images from the So Refreshing stamp set in Daffodil Delight Ink on a panel of Lemon Lolly cardstock. I cut the images and the blanket out using the So Refreshing Dies. Using the So Refreshing Dies, I cut the strawberries from a scrap of Sweet Sorbet cardstock and the strawberry tops from a scrap of Granny Apple Green cardstock.

Stampin' Up! So Refreshing Patchwork 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the strawberry tops to the strawberries using a tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the leaves to the lemons using a tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut the lemon slices in half using Paper Snips. I adhered the blanket to the card front. I adhered the pitcher, glass and lemons to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the strawberries in the pitcher and glasses using Glue Dots. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the So Refreshing stamp set in Garden Green Ink on a panel of Basic White. I had stamped and cut out 2 of the glass images, so I adhered one of them on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Garden Green mat then to the inside of the Calypso Coral card base.

Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Birthday Fun Fold

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week is going well. We’re halfway through and on our way to the weekend already. This month is flying by quickly.

Today’s card I have a sneak peek for you of a bundle coming in the September – December 2023 Mini Catalog. We had our team stamping studio last night and did some mystery stamping at the end. This is what I came up with from Jaimie’s directions.

Stampin' Up! Translucent Florals Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Bundle which will be available starting in September from the Mini Catalog along with the Glorious Gingham 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my tissue box card today.

Stampin' Up! Translucent Florals Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by scoring the 2 – 4 1/4″ X 5″ panels of Pretty Peacock cardstock along the 5″ side every inch. Using Tear & Tape, I adhered the ends together making 2 boxes. I adhered the 2 boxes together using Tear & Tape just on the ends of the boxes. I adhered the 4 pieces of Glorious Gingham DSP on the 2 sides and top of the boxes.

Stampin' Up! Translucent Florals Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the larger flower from the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Cling Stamp Set in Bubble Bath Ink. I stamped the medium flower from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Berry Burst Ink. I stamped the sprig image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Lemon Lolly Ink 3 times and the leaf image 2 times in Pretty Peacock Ink. I cut all the images out using the Translucent Florals Dies along with the stem die from a panel of Pretty Peacock cardstock. I cut the largest circle using the Stylish Shapes Dies from a panel of Basic White. I stamped the large leaf image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the circle twice. I adhered the stems using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the flowers and leaves on the stems using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sprigs behind the flowers using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Brushed Brass Butterflies to the flowers.

Stampin' Up! Translucent Florals Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the tiny flower image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Bubble Bath Ink in the corners. I adhered the sentiment to ta Pretty Peacock mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card base blocks using Glue Dots. I wrapped a piece of Bubble Bath 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon from the 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack around the front box and tied a bow.

Stampin' Up! Translucent Florals Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the back, I cut out another one of the largest circles from the Stylish Shapes Dies from a panel of Basic Whtie. I stamped the sentiment from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on the circle. I stamped the larger floral image in Bubble Bath Ink and the sprig image in Lemon Lolly Ink. I adhered the circle to the front circle using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and inserted it between the 2 boxes using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Translucent Florals Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf and floral images from the Translucent Florals stamp set on the envelope front in Berry Burst, Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly and Lost Lagoon Inks. I adhered a panel of Glorious Gingham DSP to the envelope flap.

My colors are from the Paper Players Challenge #644.

Stampin' Up! Timeless Charm Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Lost Lagoon mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Timeless Charm Thanks 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Basic Whtie using the Deckled Rectangle Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Charm stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the top of the panel. I stamped the flower image from the Timeless Charm stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the image using Crumb Cake, Lemon Lolly and Lost lagoon Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin' Up! Timeless Charm Thanks 4 creativestampingdesigns.com
