Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Thank You

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off well. I can’t believe it’s the last day of April already. That means that the 2023-2024 and January-April Mini Catalogs end TODAY. I hope you grabbed any retiring items that you wanted. That also means that the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalog starts tomorrow. I hope you’re getting those shopping lists ready. Mine is 2 pages long so far and that’s just what I want right now.

I hve another quick card for you today. If you have gotten the new Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog, turn to page 22. On the bottom of the page Stampin’ Up! has added some card layouts. I used one of them for my card today. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Lavender 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Painted Lavender Photopolymer Stamp Set, Perennial Postage Dies, the Fern 3D Embossing Folder and Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Lavender 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Highland Hether card front using the Fern EF. I adhered 3 panels of Perennial Lavender DSP to the embossed panel using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Lavender 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Hope You Know stamp set in Gorgeous Grape Ink. I stamped the leaf image from the Painted Lavender stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the sentiment. I stamped the lavender image from the Painted Lavender stamp set in Highland Heather Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the leaf image. I cut the sentiment out using the Perennial Postage Dies.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Lavender 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Highland Heather card base using Liquid Glue. I added a few Brushed Brass Butterflies to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Hope You Know stamp set in Gorgeous Grape Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Painted Lavender stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the lavender image from the Painted Lavender stamp set in Highland Heather Ink, stamping off on scrap paper, over the leaf image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Crumb Cake mat then to the inside of the Highland Heather card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from the Painted Lavender stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the lavender image from the Painted Lavender stamp set in Highland Heather Ink over the leaf image. I adhered a panel of Perennial Lavender DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Wedding

Good Monday morning stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Yesterday I played catch up. I got laundry done, cards made, gardening started and had time for a couple walks and played with the puppy for a while. It was a warm one here yesterday and it’s supposed to be even warmer here today in NJ. I love the warmer weather.

Today I have one of the quickest wedding cards I’ve ever made. I played with some retiring products and Online Exclusives. The retiring products you only have until tomorrow night to grab them while you can. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Wedding 1 creativestampinpgdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Sweetly Scripted Cling Stamp Set and Gold Foiled Flowers Cards & Envelopes (which will retire tomorrow) for my card today. The Heartfelt Hexagon set and punch will be carrying over to the new catalog, but tomorrow is the last day to get 10% off with the bundle price.

Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Wedding 2 creativestampinpgdesigns.com

I started by cutting one of the Gold Foiled Flowers Cards to make a card front. I wrapped a piece of the Very Vanilla and Gold 3/8″ Satin Edged Ribbon (retiring tomorrow) around the card front and tying a bow.

Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Wedding 3 creativestampinpgdesigns.com

I adhered the card front to a Basic Black mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Very Vanilla card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Wedding 4 creativestampinpgdesigns.com

On a panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the frame and sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Photopolymer Stam Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the image out using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch. I adhered the sentiment to the card front over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added an Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gem to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Wedding 5 creativestampinpgdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Sweetly Scripted stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I stamped the sentiment from the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink above the 1st sentiment. I stamped the small flourish on the top of the panel from the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Basic Black mat then to the inside of the Very Vanilla card base.

Stampin’ Up! Filled With Fun Hello

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some plans in the works. I’ll be at work again all day today. I finally have tomorrow off, so I’m hoping to play catch up.

Today’s card features an Online Exclusive set along with a new set from the upcoming Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Filled with Fun Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the new Stampin’ Up! Simply Said Photopolymer Stamp Set and Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Distressed Tile EF. I adhered the embossed panel to an Azure Afternoon card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a pane of Azure Afternoon to the card front using Liquid Glue. I then adhered a panel of Balmy Blue to the card front using Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the flower image from the Filled with Fun stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Said stamp set in Azure Afternoon above the flower image. I colored the image using Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst, Balmy Bue, Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the artwork to an Azure Afternoon mat using Stampin’ Seal. I wrapped a piece of Azure Afternoon 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon from the 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack (retiring April 30th), around the layered panel and tied a bow. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Filled with Fun stamp set in Azure Afternoon Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the flower image from the Filled with Fun stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the image using Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst, Balmy Blue, Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Balmy Blue mat then to the inside of the Azure Afternoon card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Filled with Fun stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image the same as I did for the card. I embossed the envelope flap using the Distressed Tile Embossing Folder.

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

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   6C44QBJA

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, the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog or from the Online Exclusives!  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! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

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

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.

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   6C44QBJA

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, the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog or from the Online Exclusives!  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! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

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

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.

On a panel of Boho Blue, I stamped the smallest airplane and sentiment from the Adventurous Sky stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with Copper Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I adhered the sentiment between the other 2 panels using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2023-2025 In-Color Dots (retiring April 30th) to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Adventurous Sky 5 creativestampungdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Adventurous Sky stamp set in Copper Clay Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the largest cloud image from the Adventurous Sky stamp set in Boho Blue, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the sentiment. I stamped the cloud image again on the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Copper Clay mat then to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large cloud image from the Adventurous Sky stamp set in Boho Blue Ink on the bottom front of the envelope. I stamped the smallest plane image from the Adventurous Sky stamp set in Copper clay ink above the clouds. I adhered a panel of Take to the Sky DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bunches Hello

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend. I h9pe you are all having a good week so far.

Today’s card I played with some retiring products and products that are carrying over. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Blueberry Bunches Hello 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bunches Cling Stamp Set along with the Glorious Gingham 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Painted Textures 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

My design for today’s card came from Global Design Project Sketch Challenge #442.

Stampin' Up! Blueberry Bunches Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a Glorious Gingham DSP card front to a Parakeet Party (retiring April 30th) mat using Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the smaller blueberry image from the Blueberry Bunches stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Blueberry Bushel and Parakeet Party(retiring April 30th) Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin' Up! Blueberry Bunches Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I embossed the Basic White panel using the Painted Textures EF. I adhered the embossed panel to a Parakeet Party mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of Parakeet Party Baker’s Twine from the 2022-2024 In-Color Baker’s Twine Pack (retiring April 30th), around the card front 3 times and tied a bow. I adhered the card front to a Blueberry Bushel card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Blueberry Bunches Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Blueberry Bunches stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few of the Tinsel Gems Four Pack to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Blueberry Bunches Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Blueberry Bunches stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink on a panel of Basic Whtie. I adhered a strip of the Glorious Gingham DSP to the side of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Parakeet Party mat then to the inside of the Blueberry Bushel card base.

Stampin' Up! Blueberry Bunches Hello 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic white Medium Envelope. I stamped the smaller blueberry image from the Blueberry Bunches stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Blueberry Bushel and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Glorious Gingham DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Blueberry Bunches Hello 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

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

Stampin’ Up! Happy House Plante Kit

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off well. Last week was a very busy hectic week for me. It started on Monday when we added a new addition to the family. I’d like you to meet Coraline’s little sister Gidget. I adopted her last Monday. She was 10 weeks old yesterday and has fit right in comfortable with us. She’s just as sassy as Cora is, and every night we have a little barking fest between the 2 of them. Once Gidget is ole enough to be free in the house (we’re working on house breaking her now), I can see the 2 of them following each other around and being best buds. We’re not sure what she is yet, we sent the DNA in last week.

For today, I put together a kit that I purchased. I’m not really a kit person, but I really liked this one and I wanted to have it to display for the vendor event last Saturday. The kits collection from Stampin’ Up! are perfect for new or beginner stampers. The kits come with everything you need to make them.

Stampin' Up! Happy House Plants Kits 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

This is the Stampin’ Up! Happy House Plants Kit. It’s an all-inclusive kit that doesn’t require any stamping, just assembling. The Happy Houseplants Kit is an adorable home decor crafting kit! This kit comes with four 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm) white frames and precut paper pieces for you to curl and assemble inside the frame. You’ll end up with four coordinated houseplant decor pieces. They can stand by themselves, or you can hang them on your wall.

Stampin' Up! Happy House Plants Kits 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I had all 4 of these put together in less than 30 minutes.

Stampin' Up! Happy House Plants Kits 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

This was really super easy to put together.

Stampin' Up! Happy House Plants Kits 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I assembled each of the plants first.

Put the mat in the frame and put the photos on top of the mat. Put the frame backing on and I was done.

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   GVPUUBAZ

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, the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog or from the Online Exclusives!  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! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

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

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.

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

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.

Final Week To Order My Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog DSP & Ribbon Shares

Good Monday morning stamping friends Happy Earth Day and welcome to a new week. How was everyone’s weekend? Mine was extremely busy. I had a crop/vendor event all day Saturday, from 8am-10pm. From Friday prepping for it, Saturday being there and Sunday unpacking and putting everything away, I had no time for myself to stamp. This was the first time I did one of these and it was pretty successful. I was lucky enough to have my downline and friend Donna there most of the day along with one of my customers and friend Arlene. They were both so much help and I’m so thankful and happy they were there to help me out.

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

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 stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Is anyone starting to make plans for the weekend? I’ll be doing a vendor event tomorrow at a local high school. I’ve never done one before, so this is all new to me.

Today I played with all retiring products. This was one of those suites that I wasn’t gong to get and once I did get it, it turned out to be one of my favorites. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Book Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

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

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #632.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Book Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering the center of the Basic Beige card base together between the 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″ score lines using Liquid Glue. I adhered the 3 3/4″ X 4 1/4″ panel of Earthen Elegance DSP to the card base using Liquid Glue.

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

I cut 2 little slits on the binder part of the card base using Paper Snips. I wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around the end 2 times and tied a small bow. On a panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the vase image from the Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures Cling Stamp Set in Copper Clay Ink. I stamped the plume image from the Earthen Textures stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink on the panel. I cut the images out using Earthen Textures Dies. Using the Earthen Textures Dies, I cut a panel of Distressed Gold paper and Pretty Peacock with 2 of the dies.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Book Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On another panel of Earthen Elegance DSP, I stamped the sentiment from the Earthen Textures stamp set i Pretty Peacock Ink. I arranged the die cut pieces the way I wanted and adhered them using Liquid Glue and Glue Dots. I adhered the vase using Stampin’ Dimensionals over the stems. I added a few 2023-2025 In-Color Dots to the card front.

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

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Earthen Textures stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. 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 Beige panel to a Pretty Peacock mat then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Book Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the plume image from the Earthen Textures stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Earthen Elegance DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Book Fold 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

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