Stampin’ Up! Tulip Fields for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

Good Tuesday morning my fellow stampers. Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s amazing projects. If you’ve hopped over from Amy Koenders’ blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Birthday”.  We can interpret this however we want.  Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Tulip Fields Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Tulips Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by stamping the double triangle image from the Stampin’ Up!Tulip Fields Photopolymer Stamp Set in Poppy Parade Ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.  Then I stamped the large triangle image from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Polished Pink, Calypso Coral and Petal Pink Inks on the Basic White panel.  I adhered a piece of Post-It Note Tape along the edge of the stamped images and using my Blending Brush I add Balmy Blue Ink to the top of the Basic White panel.  I stamped the small tree image from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Basic Black card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the windmill image from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the cloud images from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink. I cut the images out using my Windmill Fileds Dies. I colored the windmill in using my Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the clouds to the top of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Ornate Frames Dies. I adhered a length of the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Windowpane Check Ribbon to the card front with a small amount of Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. From a panel of Basic Black cardstock, I cut out the bicycle die from the Windmill Fields Dies and adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a couple Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the bicycle tires and a Brushed Brass Butterfly to the sentiment.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the tulip stems from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the side of the panel. I stamped the tulip images from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Polished Pink and Poppy Parade Ink on the stems. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Polished Pink mat and then to the inside of the Basic Black card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the strip of tulips from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Polished Pink Ink across the bottom front of the envelope. I stamped the tulip stems and leaves from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the envelope flap. I stamped the tulips from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Poppy Parade, Polished Pink and Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting by my blog today, I hope you liked my sneak peek card and will consider putting this set on your list.

Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered Island Vibes

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend and staying warm. I’ll be at the dog bakery today hopefully petting and playing with some cute puppies that will come in to visit and buy treats.

Today’s card uses a mix of Sale-a-bration items and mini catalog items. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Island Vibes Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Artfully Layered Cling Stamp Set and the Artfully Composed Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Artfully Composed DSP to a Just Jade card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Artfully Layered stamp set in Just Jade Ink. I adhered the panel to a Just Jade mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the pineapple image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images using my Just Jade and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers and fussy cut them using my Paper Snips. I adhered the pineapples to the sentiment using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the sentiment.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Just Jade Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the pineapple image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored it using my Just Jade and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Just Jade mat and then to the inside of the Just Jade card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the pineapple image from the Island Vibes stamp set on the envelope front and colored it using my Just Jade and So Saffon Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Artfully Composed DSP to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Island Vibes Special Moments

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans. It’s going to be a chilly one here. My walk to work will be a very quick one, I tend to walk faster when it’s cold outside.

Today and tomorrow’s cards use some Sale-a-bration items again. I can’t believe that Sale-a-bration will be ending in just a little over 3 weeks. Make sure you get those orders in so that you get all the free items you were hoping for. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Island Vibes Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by stamping the leaf image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Just Jade Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel. I embossed the panel using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cinnamon Cider mat and then to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a small panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the potted plant image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using my Cinnamon Cider, Crumb Cake and Just Jade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the image using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Eden’s Garden Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the leaf image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Just Jade mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the envelope front and flap. I stamped the potted plant image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Tuxedo Black and colored it the same as for the card.

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

Stampin’ Up! Awesome Otter for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be working all day Saturday and Sunday too.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used Sale-a-bration products for today’s card. I used the Stampin’ Up! Awesome Otters Cling Stamp Set along with the Simply Marbleous 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Simply Marbleous DSP to a Misty Moonlight card base. Using my Layering Circles Dies, I cut the center of the card front using the 4th largest die.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the otter image from the Awesome Otters stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the image out using the 5th largest Layering Circle Die and colored it in using my Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake, Misty Moonlight and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. From a panel of Balmy Blue cardstock I cut the coordinating scalloped circle from the Layering Circles Dies. I cut the 4th largest Layering Circle Dies from a panel of Misty Moonlight cardstock. I adhered the artwork to the scalloped circle die using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered circles to the Misty Moonlight circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Awesome Otters stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the Basic White panel and cut it out using the smallest Layering Diorama Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems to the sentiment .

I adhered the 2 panels of Simply Marbleous DSP to the Z-Fold sides of the inner card. I adhered the layered artwork to the inside using Stampin’ Seal only on the one half of the circle. I adhered it by closing the card and placing the circle inside the circle on the card front to make sure the card opens properly.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the inside of the Basic White panel. I stamped the otter image from the Awesome Otters stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it using my Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Balmy Blue panel to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base. I adhered the Basic White inner card to the inside of the Misty Moonlight care base on top of the Balmy Blue liner

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the otter image from the Awesome Otters stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post. I’d love to see your take on the card. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

Stampin’ Up! Mischievous Mice for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends! Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. I hope everyone is doing well today. If you are hopping over from Sue Prather’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Sketch Challenge. I played with one of the new Host stamp sets and used my not so favorite color that I really do like with this card. Here is my card using this week’s Sketch.

I used the adorable Stampin’ Up! Mischievous Mice Host Cling Stamp Set along with the Simply Marbleous Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our sketch for this week.

I started by adhering a panel of Simply Marbleous DSP to a Smoky Slate mat. I wrapped a piece of the White Bakers Twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack around the panel and tied a bow. I adhered the layered panel to a Bumblebee card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the mouse & cheese image from the Mischievous Mice stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Flirty Flamingo, Smoky Slate and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. The top of the cheese and the cheese holes I colored using my Blender Pen and Bumblebee Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Mischievous Mice stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Smoky Slate mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Classic Matte Dots that I colored using my So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Marker.

On the inside I stamped the balloon image from the Mischievous Mice stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic Whtie panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Mischievous Mice stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink inside the balloon. I colored the balloon using my So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Smoky slate mat and then to the inside of the Bumblebee card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the cheese and mouse image from the Mischievous Mice stamp set on the envelope front and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through all our projects today.

Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already and on our way to the weekend. I hope you are starting to make some plans.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Love is in The Air.  Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Cling Stamp Set for my clean and layered card. I was inspired by the Heart Wreath and Colors from the photo.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge #168.  How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Basic White Thick card base.

I cut the heart from a panel of Basic White cardstock using the Bouquet of Love Dies. This heart was used as my template for making the wreath. I cut 4 of the largest leaf dies from the Forever Flourishing Dies from a panel of Garden Green cardstock. I cut the leaves apart from the stem using my Paper Snips. I cut the larger flowers from panels of Flirty Flamingo and Petal Pink using my Cherry Blossoms Dies. I cut the tiny flowers from the panel of Petal Pink using my Bouquet of Love Dies.

I stamped the center of the heart with the sentiment from the Forever Blossoms stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink. I arranged the leaf dies around the heart the way I wanted them using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I arranged the larger flowers in a cluster on one side of the heart adhering some of them with Glue Dots and some with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered a few small flowers on the wreath using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the wreath to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the wreath.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Love & Happiness Cling Stamp Set in Flirty Flamingo Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf images from the Forever Blossoms stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Garden Green Ink. I adhered the extra die cut flowers using Glue Dots on top of the leaves. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower images from the Forever Blossoms stamp set on the envelope front and flap in Flirty Flamingo and Petal Pink Inks. I masked the flowers and stamped the leaf images from the Forever Blossoms stamp set around the flowers in Garden Green Ink.

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

Stampin’ Up! Turtle Friends Birthday

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. Happy February!!! Yesterday my daughter started back in person collage. She was really looking forward to it since she hated remote learning. The downside is that I have to have her at the train station to catch the 6:30am train. I’m up at that time, but I don’t like to be out in the winter at that time. Once she got to the campus, she had a 30-minute walk to her building and it was only 10 degrees out, brrr.

I have a cute little card for you today using items from the 2021 -2022 Annual Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Turtle Friends Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Tidings of Christmas 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from As You See It Challenge #267.

I started by adhering a panel of Tidings of Christmas DSP to a Crumb Cake card base.

I cut a panel of Basic White cardstock using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink down the one side of the panel using my Stamparatus. I adhered the Basic White panel to the card front.

I cut a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock using the Ornate Layers Dies and embossed the panel using my Stripes and Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the panel to the left of the sentiment panel. On a small panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the larger outline turtle image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink. I stamped the shell image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink stamping off once. I stamped the sentiment from the Turtle Friends stamp set on the shell in Evening Evergreen Ink. I colored the turtle using my Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the hat from the Turtle Friends stamp set on the turtle in Calypso Coral Ink and colored it using my Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the bird image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on top of the turtle. I stamped the bow tie image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink, fussy cut it using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the turtle using a Stampin’ Dimensional. I cut the image out using my Hippo & Friends Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bragworthy Cling Stamp Set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the 2 small outline turtle images from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the grass and shell images from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink. I colored the turtles in using my Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Evening Evergreen mat and then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large and small turtle outline images from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink. I stamped the grass and large & small shell images from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink. I colored the turtles in using my Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the bird image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink. I adhered a panel of Tidings of Christmas DSP to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Sweet Little Box

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I was able to have a fairly relaxing day yesterday, which was nice. I had time to sit at my craft table and get things ready for my next class on Tuesday along with getting a couple cards made.

I don’t have a card for you today. I have something different. I have a project this time that is so easy to make, I was able to get 6 of them done in no time at all. Here’s my project.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Sale-a-bration Photopolymer Stamp Set for my sentiment on my little box today.

I adhered 2 panels of the Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper to the front and back of the cute little Sweet Little Boxes.

Once I adhered the DSP, I put the Sweet Little Boxes together. They come with adhesive on the sides so all you have to do is fold all the score lines and put them together.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Highland Heather Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the heart from the Give It A Whirl Dies. I adhered the heart to the front of the box using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the sentiment.

The box will hold 2 of the Ghirardelli Heart candies without bulging. I closed the box and wrapped a piece of Highland Heather 1/2″ Grosgrain Ribbon around the box and tied a bow on the top.

Stampin’ Up! Love & Happiness Valentine

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I ended up working all day yesterday and it was like watching paint dry. There were customers, but it seemed like 1 would come in and check out then the next one would come in. Everyone buying salt, shovels and things to fix their snow blower. I have off today though YAY!!

I played with one of the DSP’s from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog for today’s card. I don’t usually make Valentine cards, but I’ve made a few this year. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Love & Happiness Bundle along with the Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper or my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Sweet Talk DSP to a Gorgeous Grape card base. I adhered 1 long panel of the Sweet Talk DSP to a Gorgeous Grape mat and adhered it to the left side of the card front.

I adhered 2 smaller panel of the Sweet Talk DSP to Gorgeous Grape mats and adhered them to the right side of the card front.

I cut and embossed a panel of Basic White cardstock using the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Love & Happiness Cling Stamp Set on the panel of Basic White cardstock in Gorgeous Grape ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Bouquet of Love Dies and adhered it to the center of the heart. I adhered the heart to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Friendship Cling Stamp Set in Gorgeous Grape ink. I adhered a strip of the Sweet Talk DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Gorgeous Grape mat and then to the inside of the Gorgeous Grape card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Sweet Talk DSP on the envelope front and a panel on the envelope flap.

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