Stampin’ Up! Delivering Cheer Birthday CAS

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend. I hope you are planning some fun activities this weekend. I’m kind of happy I have to work, the forecast is thunderstorms and rain, but living in NJ that could change in an hour.

For today and tomorrow’s cards I have a sneak peek for you using a new set coming in the July – December 2021 Mini Catalog. Today’s is a CAS card using the basics Stamp, Ink & Paper. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Delivering Cheer Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

I stamped 2 of the images from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock, making sure to line up the top with the bottom.

I colored the image in using my Flirty Flamingo, Fresh Freesia, Ivory, Pale Papaya, So Saffron & Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent Inks on the top of the Basic White panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Thick Basic White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sunny Sentiments Cling Stamp Set in Soft Succulent Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the 2021-2023 In-Color Designer Series Paper to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the 2021-2023 In-Color DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Pansy Birthday

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to a long weekend. It’s also the last day of June, which means tomorrow is the 1st, and you know what that means???? Designer Series Paper Sale starts. Details are listed below.

I have a quick and easy card today that I kind of CASEd from my team leader Amy. I’m thinking of using this one for my class next week. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card along with the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper.

I started by adhering a strip of the Pansy Petals DSP to the side of the Calypso Coral card front using Multipurpose Liquid glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the ‘Happy’ sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Pale Papaya, Fresh Freesia, Bumblebee, Calypso Coral and Polished Pink Ink down the side of the panel. I used my Stamparatus to make sure everything was lined up and straight. I adhered the Basic White panel to the Calypso Coral card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the ‘Happy’ sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink. I stamped the ‘birthday’ sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink over the top of the first sentiment. I cut the sentiment out using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered a length of Pale Papaya 1/2″ Woven Ribbon to the artwork using Stampin’ Seal and then the sentiment over the top of the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Pale Papaya Genial Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Best Year Cling Stamp Set in Calypso Coral Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a thin strip of the Pansy Petals DSP to the bottom of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pale Papaya mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Calypso Coral card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue

To finish my card I adhered a strip of Pansy Petals DSP to a Basic White Medium Envelope front and a panel 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! Garden Birdhouses Hello

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend. I hope you have something fun planned this weekend. I’m planning on finishing putting river rocks down in my garden that I worked on last weekend early this morning. I want to get it done before it gets too hot. I put 12 – 50lb bags down last weekend, but I needed another 4 to make it look nice and full. 1 garden finished and 3 or 4 to go. My husband is supposed to work on at least 2 of them for me. I just don’t know when they will get done.

Today’s card I played with a die set that I’ve been anxious to play with along with a new set I just got. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Garden Birdhouses Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Picture This Dies for my card today.

I started by cutting a panel of Bloom Where You’re Planted Designer Series Paper using the Picture This Dies. I placed the die cut panel over a panel of Basic White cardstock and lightly drew the circles in pencil on the panel so I knew where to stamp.

I stamped the 6 images from the Garden Birdhouses stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the Basic White panel. I colored the images in using my Cinnamon Cider, Old Olive and Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Mango Melody Stampin’ Write Marker. I erased the pencil marks from the panel. I adhered the cut DSP panel to the Basic White panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered the panel to a Cinnamon Cider card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Polished Pink 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the tree branch, birdhouse hanger, birdhouse, bird and sentiments from the Garden Birdhouses stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Cinnamon Cider, Old Olive & Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Mango Melody Stampin’ Write Marker. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Old Olive 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 birdhouse and bird from the Garden Birdhouses stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the front of the envelope. I colored the images in using my Cinnamon Cider & Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Mango Melody Stampin’ Write Marker. I adhered a panel of the Bloom Where You’re Planted 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! Spiral Dye Biggest Wish

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? Do you have plans for Father’s Day. My husband finally told my daughter what he would like for dinner. I’m not sure if she’s making him a dessert or not.

Today’s card I have a pretty simple one for you playing with a new stamp from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Spiral Dye Cling Stamp and the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set for todays card.

My colors are from the Color Throwdown Challenge #647.

I started by stamping the spiral image from the Spiral Dye stamp in Granny Apple Green Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock, stamping off once. I used my Stamparatus so that placement for the next color would be easy.

I turned the cardstock 180` placing it exactly where it was and stamped the spiral image in Polished Pink, stamping off once, over the Granny Apple Green. I cut the cardstock down to a 4″ x 5 1/4″ panel using my Trimmer. I adhered the panel to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal.

On a small panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the ‘Happy’ sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Polished Pink Ink. I stamped the ‘birthday’ sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink over the Polished Pink image. I cut the sentiment out using my Tailor Made Tags Dies. I cut the small reinforcers out of a scrap of Polished Pink card stock using my Tailor Made Tags Dies and adhered them to the tag using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around the matted panel twice, threaded it through the hole on the tag and tied a bow. I adhered the tag to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the tag. I adhered the card front to a Crumb Cake card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the spiral image from the Spiral Dye stamp in Polished Pink Ink, stamping off once, to a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sunny Sentiments Cling Stamp Set in Granny Apple Green Ink over the spiral image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Polished Pink 2021-2023 In-Color Designer Series Paper to the envelope front and a panel 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!!

We’ve recently been made aware that, due to the current global shipping crisis tied to the COVID pandemic, we are not likely to receive the majority of product inventory for the upcoming July–December 2021 Mini Catalog or July–August 2021 Sale-A-Bration in time for the catalog launches. After careful consideration we have decided to push the launches of both publications back by one month to allow time for inventory to be received.
 
Change Details

  • The July–December 2021 Mini Catalog will in effect become the August–December 2021 Mini Catalog (though the title of the publication will not change).
    • Demonstrator Preorder: July 1, 2021 – August 2, 2021
    • Customer Sales Period: August 3, 2021– January 3, 2022
  • July–August 2021 Sale-A-Bration will in effect become August–September 2021 Sale-A-Bration.
    • Demonstrator Pre-earn: July 1, 2021 – August 2, 2021
    • Customer Earning Period: August 3, 2021 – September 30, 2021

I’m so happy that Stampin’ Up! made the decision to move the catalog timing back by a month in order to minimize those frustrating backorders and unavailable items!  Let me know if you have questions about this.  Can’t wait to see the upcoming Mini and Sale-a-bration Catalogs this summer!  And as always, I’ll get those catalogs mailed out to you just as quickly as I can once I get them in early July!

It means working together towards a common goal, helping each other through life’s challenges, and celebrating one another’s accomplishments. It means including others, even when we disagree, have contrasting life experiences, or simply see things differently. Caring about people first is our greatest strength!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet As A Peach 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 Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Theme Challenge. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this weeks Theme ‘Punch It!’

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

I used 2 punches for my card, the Label Me Lovely and Everyday Label Punch.

I started by adhering a panel of the You’re A Peach DSP to a Pear Pizzazz mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted panel to a Pear Pizzazz card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I adhered another panel of the You’re A Peach DSP to a Pear Pizzazz mat using Stampin’ Seal then adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a small panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the leaf image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink, stamping off once. I stamped the small peach image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink, stamping off once, on the stems. I punched the image out using my Everyday Label Punch. I stamped the sentiment from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink in the center of the punch over the stamped image. I punched a panel of Pear Pizzazz cardstock using the Label Me Lovely Punch and adhered the sentiment to the top of it using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered a piece of Pale papaya 1/2″ Woven Ribbon to the card front using a tiny amount of Stampin’ Seal to hold it in place. I adhered the matted sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in the center of a Basic White panel in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I stamped the leaf image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the top of the panel. I stamped the small peach image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink on the stems, I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pear Pizzazz mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pear Pizzazz card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the small peach image from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink on the stems. I adhered a panel of the You’re A Peach 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! Biggest Wish for Amy’s Happy Inkin’ Krew 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 beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Jillian Good’s 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! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card along with the Patterned Party Host Designer Series Paper.

I started by adhering a panel of the Patterned Party DSP to a Basic Black card base using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered another panel of the Patterned Party DSP to a Basic White 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 Biggest Wish stamp set 3 times, using my Stamparatus, in Flirty Flamingo Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom, partially overlapping the last ‘Happy’. I embossed the panel using my Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic Black mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Black Matte Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Happiest of Birthdays Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Patterned Party DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Basic Black card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Patterned Party DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Friendship Masculine Card

Good Monday morning my stamping friends and Happy Memorial Day!!! Please remember the reason we celebrate today. For all those that gave their lives for us, that never made it back home to their families.

Hard to believe another month gone. Is anyone going to or having a picnic today? I’ll be having a small picnic like I do every year. My daughter’s birthday falls near Memorial Day every year, so we always celebrate her birthday with a picnic. Hopefully all this rain we’ve been having will clear up to be an ok day. I think we’ve had all the rain we were suppose to have in April and May in these past 4 days. Today’s card is another one we will be making at our Stamp Camp card class tomorrow night. My design is from my team leader Amy Koenders. She made cards with this design, but different DSP a while back and I asked her if I could CASE it for my class. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Friendship Bundle for my card today along with the Well Suited Designer Series Paper. This DSP will be retiring at the end of June. If it’s paper that you like, get it before it’s gone. I think it’s the perfect masculine paper.

I started by cutting a panel of Well Suited DSP using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered the panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Pacific Point card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

From another panel of the Well Suited DSP I cut the largest tag from the Tailored Tags Dies. I cut the small tag topper from a scrap of Pacific Point cardstock using the Tailored Tags Dies and adhered it to the top using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I threaded a piece of Gray Granite 1/4″ Shimmer Ribbon through the top and looped it so it would hold. I adhered the tag to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Friendship Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the label die from the Beautiful Trees Dies. I cut another label out from a strip of Pacific Point cardstock. I adhered the Pacific Point label to the tag using Stampin’ Seal then the sentiment label above using Stampin’ Seal. I added a few Matte Black Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! A Good Man Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of Well Suited DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pacific Point card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I added a strip of the Well Suited 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 CAS card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up Shaded Summer Birthday

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How has everyone’s week started off? Hope you all have a productive one. We dropped from the mid 90’s Sunday to 70 yesterday. There was actually a little chill in the air.

I’m a little obsessed, I’ll admit it. I can’t stop using the 2021-2023 In-Colors and the Scalloped Contour Dies. I can’t get enough of them. Here’s my card for today.

I used another new set from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog the Stampin’ Up! Shaded Summer Cling Stamp Set.

I joined in with the Fab Friday Color Challenge #214.

I started by stamping the floral image from the Shaded Summer stamp set on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I colored the stamp using my Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent markers from the 2021-2023 In-Color Stampin’ Write Markers. I cut the image out using my Scalloped Contours Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Shaded Summer stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Soft Succulent Ink.

I adhered a panel of the Evening Evergreen 2021-2023 In-Color Shimmer Vellum to an Evening Evergreen card base using Stampin’ Seal. I cut 2 rectangles using my Stitched Rectangle Dies from a panel of Fresh Freesia cardstock. I adhered 2 panels of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper to the Fresh Freesia mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the 2 panels to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a small bow I tied using the Soft Succulent 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon to the artwork using a Glue Dot. I added a few Polished Pink 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Shaded Summer stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Shaded Summer stamp set on the bottom of the panel which I colored using my Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Write Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Succulent mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Evening Evergreen card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Shaded Summer stamp set which I colored using my Pale Papaya and Soft Succulents Stampin’ Write Markers on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Pansy Petals 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! Turtle Friends for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? It’s been a beautiful warm week here. Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at work between both jobs all weekend.

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 the new Stampin’ Up! Turtle Friends Bundle for my fun fold card along with the In The Wild Designer Series Paper.

I started by scoring and folding the Soft Succulent card base at 1/2″, 1 1/2″, 3″ & 4″. I adhered a panel of In The Wild DSP to the top section of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive to the 1/2″ fold. I folded the panel up on the 3″ fold line and folded the 1/2″ fold under and adhered it to the back of the card base.

I scored and folded the smaller panel of Soft Succulent cardstock at 1/2″ & 1 1/2″. I adhered a piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive to the 1/2″ fold, I lined up the bottom of the panel with the card base, folded the card base flat and adhered the small panel to the larger panel. I adhered another panel of In The Wild DSP to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I first cut the 2nd largest die from the Hippo & Friends Dies. I stamped the grass image from the Stampin’ Up! Turtle Friends Photopolymer Stamp Set on the bottom of the die cut piece in Mint Macaron Ink. I stamped the streamers image from the Turtle Friends stamp set on the top of the die cut panel in Blackberry Bliss, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya and Polished Pink Ink. I stamped the large turtle image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on the Basic White panel. I stamped the shell image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink, stamping off once, inside the turtle shell. I stamped the sentiment from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink over the shell image. I punched the turtle out using the Turtle Punch. I colored the turtles body using my Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the hat image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink and colored it in using my Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya and Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the hat using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the turtle using a Stampin’ Dimensionals to hold it from the back. I adhered the turtle to the die cut using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I die cut panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue just on the bottom section. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels (which I forgot to add when I was live), to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the grass image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink along the bottom of the panel and colored it in using my Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the 2 small turtle images from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored their bodies in using my Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the shell image in Soft Succulent Ink. I stamped the sentiments from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink towards the top of the panel. I stamped the streamer image in Blackberry Bliss, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya and Polished Pink Ink along the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Evening Evergreen mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the back of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the grass image from the Turtle Friends stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the bottom front of the envelope. I stamped the large turtle image in Evening Evergreen Ink and the shell image in Soft Succulent Ink. I stamped the birthday hat on the turtle in Blackberry Bliss Ink. I colored the image in using my Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of In The Wild 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. 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! Friends Are Like Seashells 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 Karen Finkle, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Theme Challenge. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s amazing projects. Here is my card using this weeks theme.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells Bundle for my card today along with the Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper.

I started by stamping the sand image from the Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells Photopolymer Stamp Set in Sahara Sand Ink on the bottom of a panel of the Sand & Sea DSP and adhering it to a Sahara Sand card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered 2 small panels of the Sand & Sea DSP to Sahara Sand Mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the 2 small matted panels to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. This DSP will be retiring on June 30th when the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog retires.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink. I adhered the sentiment to a strip of Sahara Sand cardstock, off centering it, and adhered the matted sentiment to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sand image from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink on the bottom corner of the panel. I stamped the seaweed images from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on top of the sand. I colored some of the seaweed in using my Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Markers. On another panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the starfish image from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink and the seashell image in Blushing Bride Ink. I cut the images out using the Seaside Shells Dies and adhered them to the small panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Sahara Sand mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Opal Rounds to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the sand image from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Sahara Sand Ink. I stamped the seaweed images in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the sand image and colored some of the seaweed in using my Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Sahara Sand mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Sahara Sand card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sand image from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in Sahara Sand ink on the bottom front of the envelope. I stamped the seaweed images in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the sand image . I adhered a panel of the Sand & Sea 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.
