Good Wednesday morning stamping friends Happy November!!! Are you ready for a new month? I am and I’m just about ready for tomorrow to get here. I leave my house around 4:30am to catch a flight to our retreat in GA. I’m so looking forward to going and getting to spend some time with team members and crafting for the entire weekend. I don’t have to do anything but relax and enjoy myself. We get all our meals prepared for us, and they are delicious. I missed a lot of them last year when I went because I spent most of the time sleeping and being sick. Not this year, I’m going to make up for last year.

I have a quick and easy card for you today that is also Clean and Simple. With all the running around and working I’ve been doing the past few days, I needed something quick and easy. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Cling Stamp Set and Meadow dies for my card today.

I joined in with Just Us Girls Challenge #703 CAS Week.

I started by using my Blending Brush and adding Bubble Bath Ink to the center of a Basic White card front. I stamped the flower image from the Quiet Meadow stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink over the blended color. I stamped the sentiment from the Quiet Meadow stamps set in Crumb cake Ink next to the flower image. I stamped the splotch image from the Quiet Meadow stamps et in Bubble Bath Ink around the flowers.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Bubble Bath mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Crumb Cake card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

From a small panel of Bubble Bath I cut the small butterfly using the Meadow Dies. I adhered the butterfly to the card front using Stampin’ Dimsnsionals.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Quiet Meadow stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on a panel of Basic White. I added some Bubble Bath Ink on the bottom of the panel using the Blending Brush. I stamped the flower image from the Quiet Meadow stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink over the blended color. I stamped the splotch image from the Quiet Meadow stamp set in Bubble Bath Ink around the flower image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Bubble Bath mat then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. Using the Blending Brush, I added some Bubble Bath Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the flower image from the Quiet Meadow stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink Over the blended area and on the envelope flap. I stamped the splotch image from the Quiet Meadow stamp set in Bubble Bath Ink around the flower image on the envelope front and flap.

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

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.
