Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend already. We’re having a gloomy week again here in NJ. Sunday and Monday were beautiful days, spring like.

Today’s card is similar to one I made a couple weeks ago except in landscape. This card we made last night at my Stamp Camp Card Class. I showed the ladies both card, portrait and landscape and let them decide which way they wanted to go. Click Here if you’d like to see the portrait version. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made today’s card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s My card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Perennial Postage Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Painted Lavender Bundle, Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper and Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

I started by embossing a Basic Whtie card front using the Exposed Brick EF. I adhered the embossed panel to an Orchid Oasis card base using Liquid Glue.

I adhered 3 panels of Perennial Lavender DSP to 3 Orchid Oasis mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panels to the embossed card front using Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Orchid Oasis, I stamped the sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I cut the end into a banner using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Using the Painted Lavender Dies, I cut the flowers from a panel of Orchid Oasis and the leaves from a panel of Lost Lagoon. I adhered the die cut pieces to the card front using Glue Dots. I tied a small bow using the 2022-2024 In-Color Baker’s Twine Pack and adhered it to the bottom of the die cuts using a Glue Dot. I added a few 2022-2024 In-Color Pearls to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink. I stamped the leaves image from the Stampin’ Up! Painted Lavender Photopolymer Stamp Set in Lost Lagoon Ink, full strength and stamped off once on scrap paper. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Crumb Cake mat then to the inside of the Orchid Oasis card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaves image from the Painted Lavender stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Perennial Lavender 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!!

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.
