Stampin’ Up! Create With Friends CAS

Posted on by
8

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I was at the Ace yesterday working and it was crazy busy. Everyone buying clean up supplies. It’s sad driving around my areas with all the debris and everyone’s belongings outside on the curb that has been destroyed. We’ve had a lot of loss in our town, between the house that exploded a block away from me and a building collapsed in our town, cars abandoned everywhere. It’s very sad. I’ll be in town today working at the dog bakery, that always brings a smile to me.

I have a CAS card for you today using some sets from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Create With Friends Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

My design is from the Inspire. Create Challenge #098.

My colors are from Just Add Ink Challenge #570.

I started by adhering a panel of the Brights 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Thick Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiments from the Create With Friends stamp set in Coastal Cabana and Night of Navy Inks. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Night of Navy mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the butterfly image from the Positive Thoughts stamp set twice on a panel on Coastal Cabana card stock in Night of Navy Ink and cut the images out using my Nature’s Thoughts Dies. I adhered the butterflies to the card front using Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Night of Navy rhinestones from the Holiday Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Positive Thoughts stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the butterfly image from the Positive Thoughts stamp set in Coastal Cabana Ink on the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Night of Navy mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the butterfly image from the Positive Thoughts stamp set in Coastal Cabana Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Brights DSP to the envelope flap.

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! Quiet Meadow

Posted on by
2

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How are you all doing today? Hope your week has started out to be a productive one. I normally have Tuesday’s off, but today is the last day of the month so that means I have to go in. First I have to take my son for a follow up appointment for his broken leg. Fingers crossed that he can come off his crutches that he’s been on since June 10th. It’s been a long summer of transporting him around and it’s still going to be a while before he can drive.

I have a card class coming up next week, so I have to start designing cards for it. That’s the hardest part of having classes, coming up with new ideas. Luckily demonstrators have some resources to find new ideas. Here’s my card for today that we’ll be making next Tuesday night.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Bundle for my card today.

I started by adhering a Petal Pink card front to a Cinnamon Cider card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I colored a panel of Basic White cardstock using my Mossy Meadow and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers in the center of the panel. Using my Meadow Dies, I cut the leafy die out of the colored section of the panel.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a small panel of Cinnamon Cider cardstock I stamped the splotch image from the Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Cling Stamp Set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. I cut the 2 butterfly dies from the Meadow Dies out of the stamped panel and adhered them to the Basic White panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Quiet Meadow stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Meadow Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the small flower images from the Quiet Meadow stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink around the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Cinnamon Cider card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tiny flower images from the Quiet Moment stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of 2020-2022 In-Color 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Delicate Dahlias Birthday Triple Time Card

Posted on by
8

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend, I hope you have something fun planned.

I have my alternative version of the Triple Time Card for you today that I made on Wednesday. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Delicate Dahlias Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Host In Your Words Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by taking 3 panels of Basic White cardstock and lightly adhering them together with the tiniest amount of Stampin’ Seal just to hold them in place while stamping. I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words SAB Host stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on the smallest Basic White panel. I then randomly stamped the 3 images from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set in Bumblebee, Calypso Coral and Just Jade Ink on the layered panels. I embossed all 3 panels using my Painted Textures 3D Embossing Folder.

I gently took the panels apart and adhered the smallest and middle Basic White panels to Just Jade mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the smallest layered panel to the middle panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue being sure to match up the flower and leaf images.

I adhered the layered panel to the large Basic White Stamped panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, making sure to match up the flowers and leaf images. I colored a length of the new White 3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon using my Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends Markers. I wrapped the ribbon around the layered card front and tied a bow. I adhered the layered card front to a Just Jade card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Night of Navy Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words SAB Host stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large dahlia image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Bumblebee Ink, stamped off once, over the sentiment. I stamped the leaf image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Just Jade Ink, stamped off twice, by the dahlia image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Bumblebee mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Just Jade card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large dahlia image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on the envelope flap. I stamped the leaf image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the envelope front and the envelope flap. I stamped the small flower image from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope front.

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

Stampin’ Up! Delicate Dahlias Birthday

Posted on by
4

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend. We’re back to being really hot here again after our 3 days straight of rain.

I have a Triple Time Card for you today. I love doing this design and don’t do it often enough. I’ve made my card using only Stamps, Ink and Paper. Even though it’s an easy card there are lots of layers. I’ve made a similar card stepped up a bit, Watch for my stepped up version of this card on Saturday. See what extras I added. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Delicate Dahlias Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Host In Your Words Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

My colors are from the Inspire. Create Challenge #097.

I started by taking 3 panels of Basic White cardstock and lightly adhering them together with the tiniest amount of Stampin’ Seal just to hold them in place while stamping. I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words SAB Host stamp set in Night of Navy Ink in the center of the smallest Basic White panel. I then randomly stamped the 3 images from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set in Bumblebee, Calypso Coral and Just Jade Ink on the layered panels.

I gently took the panels apart and adhered the smallest and middle Basic White panels to Night of Navy mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the smallest layered panel to the middle panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue being sure to match up the flower and leaf images.

I adhered the layered panel to the large Basic White Stamped panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, making sure to match up the flowers and leaf images. I adhered the layered panel to a Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words SAB Host stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large dahlia image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on the side of the panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Just Jade Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Night of Navy mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large dahlia image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the leaf image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the envelope front and the envelope flap. I stamped the small flower image from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. The items I used today are from the August-September Sale-a-bration Catalog. These items can be earned FREE with a qualifying order of $100 for the Delicate Dahlias stamp set and a $300 host order for the In Your Words stamp set.

Stampin’ Up! Counting Sheep CAS Birthday

Posted on by
10

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How has everyone’s week started off? I hope you are having a productive one.

I have a simple stamping card for you today using the masking technique. Masking is where you cover up a stamped image and stamp something over it to look like it is behind the 1st image. I used a sticky note to do my masking, which I stamp the image on and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips. Here is my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Counting Sheep Cling Stamp Set from the Sale-a-bration catalog for my card today

I played along with As You See It Challenge #236.

I also played along with CASology Challenge # 394 ‘MASK’

I started by stamping the 1st sheep from the Counting Sheep SAB stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White card front. I masked the image with my sticky note and stamped the 2nd sheep image from the Counting Sheep SAB stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I masked that sheep also using my stick note and stamped the 3rd sheep in Tuxedo Black Ink. I masked the last sheep with my sticky note and using my Blending Brush I added Balmy Blue Ink to the top of the panel. Once I had the amount of color that I wanted I used my Blending Brush and added Granny Apple Green Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the grass image from the Counting Sheep SAB stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Granny Apple Green Ink, over the brushed Granny Apple Green.

I colored the sheep using my Petal Pink and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Counting Sheep SAB stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Granny Apple Green mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the layered panels to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Counting Sheep SAB stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped 2 of the sheep images from the Counting Sheep SAB stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the grass image in Granny Apple Green Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the sheep in using my Petal Pink and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Granny Apple Green mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sheep images from the Counting Sheep stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of the Brights 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper 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! Counting Sheep Sliding Gate Fold for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
2

Good Friday the 13th morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Is anyone superstitious out there? I’m not. My daughter and I along with my nephew, niece and her 2 boys, spent all day yesterday on the beach. I took the day off from my daily life and went and sat, walked swam and jumped waves for 8 hours yesterday. It was AMAZING. We had such a beautiful HOT day, but on the beach you don’t even feel the heat, especially when your in the water as much as we were. The sunburn today is telling me a little different. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have any plans for the weekend yet? I’ll be working all day Saturday and attending my virtual team meeting on Sunday. We have a lot of fun even at our virtual meetings.

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 were able to watch me, you were able to see what not to do when making this card. Luckily I was able to fix it without having to redo too much. 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 the Stampin’ Up! Counting Sheep Cling Stamp Set along with the Sheep Dies for my card today. I also used the Stampin’ Up! In Your Words Cling Stamp Set for the sentiments. All 3 of these items are from the August-September Sale-a-bration Catalog and are free with qualifying orders.

I started by adhering 2 panels of Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper to Basic White mats using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered the 2 layered panels to the front of a Bermuda Bay card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

For the sliding mechanism I started by cutting a Bermuda Bay panel with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered a small panel of the Basic White cardstock to the back of the scalloped rectangle using Stampin’ Seal. I scored 2 of the Basic White panels and folded them in half. I adhered the 2 folded panels folded edge in on the back of the scalloped rectangle. I adhered another one of the small Basic White panels on top of the folded panels using Stampn’ Seal. On the last small Basic White panel I stamped the grass image from the Counting Sheep stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel. I cut a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper using the fence die from the Sheep Dies and adhered it to the Basic White panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sheep image from the Counting Sheep stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Petal Pink and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I removed some of the ink using my Color Lifter to lighten the color. I cut the sheep out using my Sheep Dies and embossed the sheep using my Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I stamped the party hat image from the Counting Sheep stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and cut the image out using my Sheep Die. I colored the hat in using my Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green, Poppy Parade and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the hat to the sheep using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the sheep to the Basic White panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut the balloon from a scrap of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and adhered it to the sheep. I adhered the artwork to the scalloped rectangle using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Artistry Bloom Adhesive-Backed Sequins to the artwork

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the sheep image from the Counting Sheep stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the image in using my Petal Pink and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the grass image below the sheep in Granny Apple Green Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pumpkin Pie mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Bermuda Bay card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sheep image from the Counting Sheep stamp set on the envelope front and colored it in using my Petal Pink and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the grass image from the Counting Sheep stamp set below the sheep in Granny Apple Green Ink. I adhered a panel of Pattern Party Hose 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. If you do CASE this card, 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! Delivering Cheer Fall Birthday

Posted on by
6

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Does everyone know what today is? It’s the eve of the new July-December 2021 Mini Catalog going live!!! I hope you have your lists ready to go. I’ll be up bright and early tomorrow morning to get my order placed.

Today’s card uses a set from the new catalog. I think it’s one of my favorites. This is also another one of the cards we will be making tomorrow night at my class. One of the ladies asked if we could make something fall with this stamp set. I love when they give me ideas of what they want. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Delivering Cheer Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Celebrate With Flowers Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the Beauty of The Earth Designer Series Paper to a Mossy Meadow card base using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered a smaller panel of the Beauty of The Earth DSP to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Celebrate With Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel. I stamped the bottom image of the girl from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink next to the sentiment. I stamped the top image on top of the bottom image, lining them up, in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Ivory, Misty Moonlight and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I also using my Bumblebee Stampin’ Write Marker. I adhered the artwork to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Celebrate With Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Beauty of The Earth DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I adhered a strip of the Beauty of The Earth DSP to the front of a Basic White Medium Envelope and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card. This set will be available tomorrow, Tuesday August 3rd, when the catalog goes live. Is it on your list? Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Daisy Garden Thinking of You

Posted on by
2

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. Happy Friendship Day and Happy August. I can’t believe it’s August already. I’m not ready to be winding down the summer yet, I need at least 3 more months. How is everyone’s weekend going? I had to go back to work twice yesterday since the mail was so late. The good thing was, I was all by myself in the office so I brought my dog with me to hang out. She wasn’t sure about the situation and was just sniffing and pacing all around the office. She did get some visitors and a lot of pets though.

Today’s card is similar to yesterday’s card, another CAS one. You have to let me know in the comments which card you like better. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Daisy Garden Cling Stamp Set along with the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper for my card today. This is such an awesome pack of DSP and you can get it until Tuesday on sale for 15% off, I may just have to order another pack. It’s one of my favorites.

I started by stamping the Daisy Garden image on a panel of In Good Taste DSP in Bumblebee Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Clear Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. Did you know that you can make any color embossing powder just by using our inks and the Clear Embossing Powder.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Cling Stamp Set on the top of the card front panel in Just Jade Ink. I adhered the card front to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I wrapped a piece of the Just Jade 3/8″ Gingham Ribbon from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack around the panel and tied a bow. I adhered the card front to a Bumblebee card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Just Jade 2020-2022 In-Color Square Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the Daisy Garden image on a panel of Basic White cardstock in Bumblebee Ink, stamping off on scrap paper once. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Just Jade Ink over the daisy image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Bumblebee card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I stamped the Daisy Garden image on the front of a Basic White Medium Envelope in Bumblebee Ink. I adhered a panel of In Good Taste 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! Sweet As A Peach Birthday for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by
9

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 Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Color Challenge. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this weeks Colors.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sweet As A Peach Bundle along with the You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper for my card today.

These are our colors for this week.

My design is from Sunday Stamps Getting Sketchy #262.

I started by adhering a panel of You’re A Peach DSP to a Balmy Blue card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut 2 panels of You’re A Peach DSP using the Ornate Layers Dies. I cut the 2 panels in half and adhered them to a Calypso Coral mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. This was how I was able to make the strips long enough for my card front. I adhered the 2 layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the stem/leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Sweet As A Peach Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I stamped the trio of peach image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set on the stem image in Pale Papaya Ink, sponged with my Dauber in Calypso Coral Ink. I cut the image out using my Hippo & Friends Dies. I stamped the trio peach image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink, sponged with Calypso Coral Ink, on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the peach trio out using my Peach Dies. I cut 2 of the leaf dies from the Peach Dies out of a panel of Pear Pizzazz cardstock. I adhered the leaves to the back of 2 of the die cut peaches using a Glue Dot then adhered them to the artwork using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I adhered the sentiment to a Calypso Coral mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Mango Melody Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the stem/leaf image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the top of a Basic White panel. I stamped the peach trio image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink, sponged with Calypso Coral Ink, on the stems. I stamped the sentiments from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the Basic White panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pear Pizzazz mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Balmy Blue card base using Stampin’ Seal. I added a couple Mango Melody Artistry Blooms Adhesive- Backed Sequins to the Basic White panel.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large peach image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink, sponged with Calypso Coral Ink, on the envelope front.

Stampin’ Up! In Symmetry CAS

Posted on by
2

I used the Stampin’ Up! In Symmetry Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card along with the Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper.

I started by adhering a panel of the Sweet Symmetry DSP to a Calypso Coral mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted panel to a Just Jade card base using Stampin’
Dimensionals.

I cut a panel of Basic White cardstock using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the In Symmetry stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the top of the panel. On the bottom of the panel I first stamped the stem for the flower in Just Jade Ink. I stamped the leaf image from the In Symmetry stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the stem. I stamped the large flower image from the In Symmetry stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on top of the stem

I adhered the artwork to a panel of Calypso Coral cardstock using Stampin’ Seal on an angle. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Bumblebee Matte Decorative Dot (available Aug 3rd), to the flower center.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Just Jade Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the stem and leaf images from the In Symmetry stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the large flower image from the In Symmetry stamp set on the stem in Calypso Coral Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Calypso Coral mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Just Jade card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower/stem/leaves images from the In Symmetry stamp set on the envelope front in Calypso Coral and Just Jade Inks. I adhered a panel of the Sweet Symmetry 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!!

July-December 2021 Mini Catalog Designer Series Paper

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the Stampin’ Up! July-December 2021 Mini Catalog and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on August 3 and I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of August 9.

How my shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Designer Series Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ x 6″ pieces (or 6″ x 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list.  I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!  Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!

Here are the Designer Series Paper Shares that I am offering from the new Mini Catalog!

New Designer Series Paper Share – $25.00 plus $5.00 for 1st Class Mail shipping

You will receive one 6×6 sheet of each design from the following new DSP packs (the number behind the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):

  • Gingerbread & Peppermint 6″ x 6″ – 12
  • Painted Christmas – 6
  • Whimsy & Wonder Specialty – 6
  • Sweet Stockings – 6
  • Peaceful Place Specialty – 6
  • Blackberry Beauty Specialty – 6
  • Cute Halloween 6″ x 6″ – 8
  • Harvest Meadow – 6
  • Heartwarming Hugs – 6 (returning)
  • Kraft 6″ x 6″ – 2
  • Brushed Metallic – 3 (returning)
  • Red & Green Foil Sheets – 2 (returning)
  • Silver Foil Specialty Pack – 3 (one of each)
  • Snowy White Velvet Sheets – 1
  • Gold Shimmer Vellum – 1
  • Cork Specialty Paper – 1 ***please note that Cork paper will be approximately 6″ x 6″ as the sizes of the original papers may vary slightly.

In all, you’ll receive 75 – 6” x 6” sheets of new designer or speciality paper!

Double DSP Share – $50 + $7.75 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, that’s fine too.  I’ll cut the designer paper sheets into 6×12 so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet (except for the Gingerbread & Peppermint, Cute Halloween and Kraft 6″ × 6″, you’ll get double sheets of those since they’re already precut).

Anyone is welcome to join in my share (please note, I can only ship to addresses within the US).  If you’d like to join, either complete the form below or email the following information to creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com

  • Your first and last name
  • The email address that is connected to your PayPal account. I only accept PayPal for payment.  ***You do not need to have a PayPal account to pay the invoice, you can choose to pay by credit card without having a PayPal account.

FREE Gift From Me! – As a bonus for joining my share, you’ll also get a sampler of some of the Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper Packs!

Deadline to sign up for my share is Sunday, August 1 at 5:00 PM ET.
