Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off good. It’s still raining here in NJ. I’m really hoping it stops soon, I know rain is good, but this is getting old.

I played with some new items again for today’s card including another one of the Online Exclusive DSP’s. If you’d like to see a quick video of my card, click HERE to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Magical Meadow Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! So Sincere Cling Stamp Set, Rustic Crate Dies, Basics 3D Embossing Folder and Online Exclusive Tartan Foil Specialty Paper for my card today.

I started by embossing a Copper Clay card front using the Basics 3D EF. I adhered a panel of Tartan Foil Paper to the bottom of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Gue. I adhered the layered panel to a Copper Clay mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of Night of Navy 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon around the matted panel and tied a bow.

From a panel of Night of Navy, I cut the 4 sprig dies from the Magical Meadow Dies and the sentiment from the Rustic Crate Dies. I adhered the sprigs to the card front just under the bow.

I adhered the sentiment to the top of the panel. I adhered the layered card front panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the foliage images from the Stampin’ Up! Magical Meadow Cling Stamp Set on the bottom of the panel in Night of Navy Ink, one stamped off 2 times on scrap paper, one stamped off 1 time on scrap paper and 1 full strength. I adhered the Basic Whtie Panel to a Night of Navy mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the foliage images from the Magical Meadow stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Tartan Foil Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I ho9pe you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   P6UQN4GZ

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 2023-2024 Annual 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!

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.
