Good Thursday morning my stamping friends and welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Color Challenge. Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s colors.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Notes of Nature Cling Stamp Set along with the Nature’s Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today. This stamp set will be retiring at the end of the month, but the DSP will be carrying over to the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog.
There are our colors for this week.
I started by adhering a panel of Nature’s Sweetness DSP to a Pebbled Path mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered a smaller panel of Nature’s Sweetness DSP to a Pebbled Path mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of Pebbled Path 3/8″ Textured Ribbon around the card front and adhered it on the back using Stampin’ Seal.
I adhered the card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered a smaller panel of Nature’s Sweetness DSP to the card front using Liquid Glue.
Using the Small Blending Brush and Pecan Pie Ink, I added ink to a panel of Basic White. I stamped the Field Notes sentiment from the Notes of Nature stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on the Basic White panel. I tore the edges around the stamped image. I adhered the torn panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut a leaf from the Nature’s Sweetness DSP and adhered it under the panel using Liquid Glue. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Cork Rounds to the card front.
On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Notes of Nature stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the splatter image from the Notes of Nature stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the panel. I cut out a few of the leaves from the Nature’s Sweetness DSP and adhered them to the Basic White panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pebbled Path mat then t the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.
To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the field notes image from the Notes of Nature stamp set on the envelope front in Pebbled Path Ink. I stamped the splatter image from the Notes of Nature stamp set in Pecan Pie on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Nature’s Sweetness DSP to the envelope flap.

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.

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:
- 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….
- 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.
