Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. I hope you are all starting to make plans for the weekend. I’m here in Houston TX for our Stampin’ Up! OnStage Event. Last night was so much fun stamping with friends and getting our 1st new bundle from the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. I’m so excited to see what they have for us today. Our days here are starting early and ending late, but well worth it.

Today’s card is one that we made at our team meeting on Sunday. This card was designed by Carol Buckelew using Online Exclusive products. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Simply Zinnia Bundle and Flowering Zinnia Designer Series Paper along with the Perennial Postage Dies for my card today.

I started by adhering panels of Flowering Zinnias DSP to Daffodil Delight mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to a Mossy Meadow card base using Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the single zinnia from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia Cling Stamp Set in Flirty Flamingo, Highland Heather and Pumpkin Pie Inks. I stamped the leaf image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink 3 times. I cut all the images out using the Simply Zinnia Dies. I colored each of the flowers and leaves with the coordinating Stampin’ Blends Markers and the flower centers using Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers.

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Perennial Postage Dies. I cut a panel of Berry Burst using the next largest Perennial Postage Die. I adhered the sentiment to the Berry Burst mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the flowers and leaves around the sentiment using Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins to the card front.

I adhered the other 2 panels of Flowering Zinnias DSP to Daffodil Delight mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the back panels of the card base using Liquid Glue. I kept the back inner panel very simple by just stamping the single zinnia image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Pumpkin Pie Ink on the bottom of a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink by the flower. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Daffodil Delight mat then to the back of the Mossy Meadow card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the single zinnia from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Pumpkin Pie Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the leaf image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink by the flower. I adhered a panel of Flowering Zinnias DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like this 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.
