This week we have Theme Challenge. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s theme.

Stampin' Up! Crafting With You Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Crafting With You Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Bundle, Crafting with You Dies and Thoughtful Journey 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our theme for this week.

Stampin' Up! Crafting With You Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Thoughtful Journey DSP to a Fresh Freesia mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Boho Blue card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Crafting With You Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the easel and paintbrush images from the Crafting with You stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I stamped the bird image from the Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images using Boho Blue, Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using the Crafting with You Dies and Country Birdhouse Dies. I cut the basket from a panel of Pecan Pie using the Crafting with You Dies. I adhered the paintbrushes behind the basket using Glue Dots.

I adhered the easel, basket and bird to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut a panel of the Thoughtful Journey DSP and adhered it to the easel using Stampin’ Seal. I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the top of the card front. I added a few Tinsel Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Boho Blue Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a panel of Thoughtful Journey DSP to the bottom of the panel. I stamped the bird image from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the image using Boho Blue, Lemon Lolly and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Fresh Freesia mat then to the inside of the Boho Blue card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bird image from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Boho Blue, Lemon Lolly and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Boho Blue Ink next to the bird. I adhered a panel of Thoughtful Journey DSP to the envelope flap.

I started by scoring and folding a Pretty in Pink card base as listed in the measurements below. I cut the panel of Lily Pond Lane DSP in half at 1 7/8″. I cut the top of the panel at 3″ and I cut the bottom panel at 2″. This makes the 4 panels you need for the card front.

I adhered the panels of Lily Pond Lane DSP to Pretty Peacock mats using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panels to Pretty in Pink card front panels using Liquid Glue. I added Liquid Glue to the right 1″ folded card front panel. I adhered the 2″ layered panel to the top and the 3″ layered panels to the bottom, lining up the right edge of the card front. I added Liquid Glue to the left 1″ card front panel. I adhered the 3″ layered panel to the top and the 2″ layered panel to the bottom, lining up the left edge.

I stamped the duck images from the Charming Duck Pond stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the cattail image from the Charming Duck Pond stamp set in Pretty Peacock and Pretty in Pink Inks next to the ducks. I colored the images using Granny Apple Green, Gray Granite, Peach Pie, Pretty in Ink and Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pretty Peacock mat then to the inside of the Pretty in ink card base.

Stampin’ Up! Frosted Forest Birthday

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. Happy July!! Sorry I didn’t have a post yesterday, I was out the door very early to get to work so I could get all the statements done and mailed. There seemed to be more this month. It was another beautiful day here after a bad storm we had on Sunday. There was flooding all over in my town. It looked like a muddy pool between my backyard and my neighbors. I was watching to make sure the water didn’t come too close to the house. It came down so hard and so fast that the major highway up the road from me was flooded. Everything is good though; all the water is down and where it’s supposed to be.

I used a new Online Exclusive Bundle for today’s card that will be available to purchase starting tomorrow, YAY!!! And it’s a masculine card, which I always struggle with. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Frosted Forest Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Frosted Forest Bundle along with the Deckled Rectangle Dies, Timber 3D Embossing Folder and Country Woods Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Frosted Forest Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a panel of County Woods DSP to a Basic Beige card base using Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Basic Beige using the 3rd largest Deckled Rectangle Die. I embossed the die cut panel using the Timber 3D EF.

Stampin' Up! Frosted Forest Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the tall tree image from the Stampin’ Up! Frosted Forest Photopolymer Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink. Using the Frosted Forest Decorative Masks, I added Pecan Pie Ink to the tree trunk using the Small Blending Brush. I used Granny Apple Green Ink for the other 2 Frosted Forest Masks for the treetop using the Small Blending Brush. I cut the tree out using the Frosted Forest Dies. On the same panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the bird image from the Frosted Forest stamp set 2 times in Early Espresso Ink. I colored the birds using Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the birds out using the Frosted Forest Dies. I adhered the tree to the embossed panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around the panel 2 times and tied a bow. I adhered the embossed panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Frosted Forest Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the birds to the top of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the sentiment from the Frosted Forest stamp set in Early Espresso Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots. I added a few Pecan Pie Ribboned Adhesive-Backed Dots (available July 3rd) to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Frosted Forest Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Frosted Forest stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. I stamped the bird image from the Frosted Forest stamp set in Early Espresso Ink by the sentiment and colored them using Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Country Woods DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic Beige panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.

Stampin' Up! Frosted Forest Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tall tree image from the Frosted Forest stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image the same as I did for the card using the Frosted Forest Masks. I adhered a panel of Country Woods DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. What kind of plans do you have for the weekend? I’ll be working all day today and after work one of my cashiers invited all the employees to her house for a company picnic.

I have a quick and easy card for you today using a suite from the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog and new dies coming July 3rd from the Online Exclusives. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Unbounded Love Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty Photopolymer Stamp Set, Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and the new Online Exclusive Greetings of the Season Dies, that will be available starting July 3rd, for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Unbounded Beauty DSP to a Calypso Coral card base using Liquid Glue. I adhered a smaller panel of Unbounded Beauty DSP to the card front using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Calypso Coral using the largest die from the Greetings of the Season Dies. I stamped the leaf image from the Flowers of Beauty stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the tag. I tied a small bow using White Baker’s Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack on the top of the tag. I adhered the tag to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Unbounded Love Photopolymer Stamp Set in Calypso Coral Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Unbounded Love Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a couple 2024-2026 In-Color Resin Dots to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Unbounded Love stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the leaf image from the Flowers of Beauty stamp set in Peach Pie Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the panel of Basic White to a Peach Pie mat then to the inside of the Calypso Coral card base.

Stampin’ Up! Everyday Details CAS

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We had such a gorgeous day here yesterday in NJ. The heat wave broke for a day and it was down to 79, but it was the windiest day you could imagine. It was so strong it knocked one of my tomato plants over. Luckily, I didn’t lose any of the tomatoes.

My card today uses all but 1 of the new 2024-2026 in-Colors. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Everyday Details Cling Stamp Set along with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the flower vase image from the Everyday Details stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on a panel of Basic White. I colored the image using Peach Pie, Petunia Pop, Pretty in Pink and Summer Splash Stampin’ Blends Markers. After I colored the vase, I went over it with the Stampin’ Blends Color Lifter to lighten the color a bit.

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Everyday Details stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink next to the vase. I stamped the dotted image from the Everyday Details stamp set in Peach Pie Ink around the vase image. I embossed the panel using the Distressed Tile EF.

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the embossed panel to a Peach Pie mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Seal. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Dappled Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Everyday Details stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the dotted image from the Everyday Details stamp set in Peach Pie Ink around the sentiment and corners. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Peach Pie mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details CAS 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower vase image from the Everyday Details stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on the envelope front and just the flowers on the envelope flap in Pebbled Path Ink. I stamped the dotted image from the Everyday Details stamp set in Peach Pie Ink around the images. I colored the images the same as I did for the card.

Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies CAS

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to the first full week of Summer!!! How was everyone’s weekend? It was a hot one here in NJ. It’s been in the 90’s since last week and yesterday we hit 99. When I walked out of work at 5pm I couldn’t breathe the air quality was so bad. We had quite a few bad thunderstorms roll through, but they made it worse, I think.

Today’s card is a pretty quick CAS one. I always love doing white on white. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Bundle along with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches #641.

My colors and theme are from Just Us Girls Mood Board #732.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Timber EF. I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic White mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic Whtie Thick card base using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Cling Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic Whtie, I stamped 2 of the butterfly images from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images using Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the butterflies out using the Sketched Butterflies Dies. I cut the small, detailed butterfly using the Sketched Butterflies Dies from a panel of Misty Moonlight. I adhered the detailed butterfly to the small butterfly using Liquid Glue. I adhered the larger butterfly to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the smaller butterfly above and under the larger one using Glue Dots. I added a few Lemon Lolly Tinsel Gems Four Pack to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink.

I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Basic White mat 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 cluster of butterflies from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the larger butterfly from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope flap. I colored the images using Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin’ Up! Under The Moon So Sincere

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends Happy Juneteenth!! Today is a special day, it’s my son’s 29th birthday. It’s hard to believe he’s 29 already, I feel like he was just a baby yesterday. I went to another graduation yesterday which was outside in the wonderful heat wave we’re having. As hot as it was, there was a breeze, so the heat didn’t feel too bad. It was my oldest niece’s son graduating yesterday and her daughter graduated Monday from 8th grade. It was so nice seeing her and the kids who I haven’t seen in a while. Afterwards we were able to catch up and chat for a bit.

I have another super quick card for you today where I let the DSP do most of the work. It’s one of my cashier’s birthday this week and she loves sailing. I always try to make cards for them having to do with something they like. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Under The Moon So Sincere 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

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

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! Country Birdhouse for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my fun fold Friday. I hope you are all getting ready for the weekend.

Today’s card is one that we made at our quarterly team meeting last Sunday. It was designed by Rosie Kean. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Bundle along with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a small panel of Country Woods DSP to a Pecan Pie mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the bottom front of the Crumb Cake card base using Liquid Glue. I adhered the larger panel of Country Woods DSP to a Pecan Pie mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base using Liquid Glue. Using the Country Birdhouse Dies, cut out the birdhouse by placing upper portion of roof die against the fold of 8 1/2 x 11 Basic White cardstock, “slipping” the cutting edge to the outside of the fold. You should have a “hinged” birdhouse once cut. From panels of Country Woods DSP cut the birdhouse, the roof and trim, birdhouse hole and flowerbox using the Country Birds Dies. Cut flowers and leaves from scraps of Boho Blue, Garden Green and Lemon Lolly using the Country Birdhouse Dies.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the birdhouse pieces together using Liquid Glue and Glue Dots. I colored the center of the hole for the birdhouse using Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker. I stamped the bird image from the Country Birdhouse stamp set on a panel of Basic White in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Crumb Cake and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the Country Birdhouse Dies. I adhered the bird to the birdhouse using Glue Dots. I adhered the flowers using Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a double bow using Linen Thread and adhered it using a Glue Dot. I added Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels to the scalloped edge of the birdhouse. I added Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the flowers.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

For the inside of the birdhouse, I cut a panel of Country Woods DSP using the Country Birdhouse Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the die cut birdhouse. I adhered the stamped panel to the inside of the small birdhouse card.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a couple of the flowers and leaf to the bottom of the inside panel of the birdhouse. On the inside of the card base, I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on a panel of Country Woods DSP. I adhered the panel of DSP to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside bottom of the Crumb Cake card base.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish m card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bird image from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Crumb Cake and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Country Woods DSP to the envelope flap.

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! Bistro Burger Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bistro Burger Bundle along with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our theme for this week

Stampin' Up! Bistro Burger Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhere a panel of Country Woods DSP to a Basic Beige card base using Liquid Glue. Using the Bistro Burger Dies, I cut the flames from a panel of Crushed Curry, wood board and knife handle from a panel of Country Woods DSP, peppers from panels of Basic Beige, Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade and Pretty Peacock and the knife from Silver Foil. I stamped the burger image from the Stampin’ Up! Bistro Burger Cling Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the fries’ image from the Bistro Burger stamp set in Wild Wheat Ink on the same panel. I colored the images using SU100, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Poppy Parade and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using the Bistro Burger Dies. Using a Sponge Dauber, I added Pumpkin Pie Ink to the tops of the flame die cuts.

Stampin' Up! Bistro Burger Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the flame to the back of the wood board using Glue Dots. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I inserted the knife into the slit on the top of the bun and adhered the burger, fries’ and peppers to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Bistro Burger stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the Basic White panel. I cut the sentiment apart and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiments from the Bistro Burger stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Basic Beige.

I adhered the Basic Beige panel to a Misty Moonlight mat then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.

Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. How was everyone’s weekend? Other than a little rain Here in NJ yesterday morning, it was gorgeous.

Yesterday was out quarterly team meeting, which means we did some stamping together. My card today was designed by one of my team members Ann Louise Fodgaard. I loved it so much I made a 2nd one in a different color. I have both cards to show you today. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Beige 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Bundle along with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and Country Lace Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Beige 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a panel of Basic Beige (or smoky slate) using the Eyelet EF. The Smoky Slate one used the Fun Patterns Online Exclusive EF. I wrapped a piece of Basic Beige 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon around the bottom of the panel, adhering it with Stampin’ Seal on the back. I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic Beige card base (or smoky slate) using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Beige 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Country Lace DSP, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Photopolymer Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink (or smoky slate). I cut the scalloped border from a panel of Country Lace DSP using the Country Birdhouse Dies. Adhered the scalloped border to the sentiment using Liquid Glue. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Beige 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Country Lace DSP, I stamped the bird and flower images from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink (or smoky slate). I cut the images, and the leave dies out using the Country Birdhouse Dies. I adhered the flowers to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the leaves under the flowers using Liquid Glue. On the Basic Beige card I added a few Tinsel Gems Three Pack.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Beige 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment and flowers from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. I adhered the Basic Beige panel to a Misty Moonlight mat (or smoky slate), then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Beige 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bird and flower images from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Country Lace DSP to the envelope flap.
