Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you are starting to make some plans for the weekend. I’ll be working all day today and I’m guessing it won’t be too busy since it’s supposed to be a rainy day again.

I played with some new Online Exclusive sets for today’s card doing a simple and fun technique If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin’ Up! The Right Words Triple ‘Z’ Fold Card

Posted on by

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week and the 1st week of March!! I hope you all had a great weekend. We had a bit of a tease here in NJ, it was in the 50’s on Saturday but then only the 30’s on Sunday.

I have a triple ‘Z’ fold card for you today. “Z” fold cards are the easiest fun fold, but when you add 2 more folds in, it could be a little tricky. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! the Right Words Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Inspiring Imperfections Bundle, Kintsugi Inspirations Specialty Designer Series Paper, Spotlight on Nature Dies and 2 3/8″ Circle Punch for my card today.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the panels of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP to the coordinating Petal Pink card bases. Do not put any DSP on the center panel of the 2nd card base.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

You can mix up and use however many different patterns of DSP that you would like.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Basic Whtie, using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch, cut the circle. Stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the panel of Basic White. Cut the sentiment out using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies. On the top of the small square of Basic Whtie, stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. Stamp the flower image from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the sentiment, stamping off once on scrap paper. Using the Spotlight on Nature Dies, cut the Gold Foil Paper. From a panel of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP, cut the vases and flower using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the small sentiment square to the center of the 2nd card base panel. Adhere the 2nd card base panel to the large card base, with the 4 1/8″ side to the left, lining up the bottom corners on both sides. Adhere the small 3rd card base to the large card base, with the 5 1/2″ side to the left, lining up the bottom corners on both sides. Adhere the punched circle to the center of the die cut gold foil circle. Adhere the vases and flower to the circle. Adhere the layered circle to the card front. Adhere the die cut sentiment to the card front. Add a few Flower Accents to the card front.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the tall vase image from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the side of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat then to the back of the Petal Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

Finish your card by decorating a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the vase images from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Misty Moonlight and Petal Pink Inks on the envelope front. Adhere a panel of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Paradise Garden Sunflowers

Posted on by

Good snowy Wednesday morning stamping friends. Yup, another 2″ of snow to shovel this morning. At this rate, I’m not going to see my lawn and gardens until May. I hope you are having a good week; we’re already halfway through it and this is the last week of February.

For today’s card I did some dry embossing on Vellum. As a lot of you know, I’m not a fan of orange, but I love Timid Tiger. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder along with the Stampin’ Up! Paradise Garden Stamp Set (available March 3), Vellum Specialty Paper and Stampin’ Up! Notes & Totes Stamp Set for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Emboss a panel of Vellum Paper using the Sunflower EF. On the back of the embossed panel, color the sunflower centers using the Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the embossed panel to a panel of Timid Tiger.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Wrap a piece of the Timid Tiger 3/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon around the panel and tie a bow. Adhere the layered panel to a Petal Pink card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.. Go over the front of the embossed panel flower centers with Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from Paradise Garden stamp set in Timid Tiger Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the splatter image from the Notes & Totes stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the sentiment. Punch the sentiment out using the 1 3/4″ Circle Punch. Punch a mat from a panel of Petal Pink using the 1 7/8″ Circle Punch. Adhere the sentiment to the mat. Adhere the layered sentiment to the card front over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from the Notes & Totes stamp set in Timid Tiger Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the splatter image from the Notes & Totes stamp set in Petal Pink by the sentiment.

  • Once you have made the purchase, fill out the Google Form HERE and submit.

A week before the class I will send you the complete PDF of the cards so you can cut all your cardstock gather your supplies, so you are ready to go.  We will NOT be cutting cardstock or doing any die cutting live since all the cards will be different.  Everyone’s cards will be unique since you will pick which color cardstock and ink you want to use along with the Designer Series Paper, Ribbon & Embellishments for each card.

The class will be held on Sunday February 22nd from 1pm – 4pm Eastern Time via Zoom.  This will allow everyone all over the United States to participate live!

If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Karen’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Birthday”. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Make A Wish Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Make A Wish Stamp Set (available March 3) along with the Perennial Postage Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Make A Wish Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the cobble stone walk, duck, dragonflies and flower images from the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Stamp the grass image from the Make A Wish stamp set in Garden Green Ink and the bushes in Shaded Spruce Ink. Color the cobble stones with Cloud Cover and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. Color the bushes with Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers and the flowers with Pretty in Pink, Strawberry Slush and Shy Shamrock Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin' Up! Make A Wish Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Small Blending Brushes add Balmy Blue Ink to the top of the panel and Garden Green Ink to the bottom of the panel. Cut the artwork panel using the largest Perennial Postage Dies. Adhere the die cut panel to a Strawberry Slush mat. Adhere the layered panel to a Pretty in Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! Make A Wish Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the Perennial Postage Dies. Since the die is smaller than the sentiment, cut 1/2 way through, move the die and lock it into the already cut area and cut from the opposite side. Adhere the sentiment to a Strawberry Slush mat. Adhere the layered sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Strawberries & Dots embellishments (avail Mar 3) to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Make A Wish Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Stamp the duck image form the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the grass image in Garden Green Ink. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Strawberry Slush mat then to the inside of the Pretty in Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! Make A Wish Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete the card. Stamp the flower and duck images from the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the envelope front. Stamp the grass image in Garden Green Ink. Color the images using the Pretty in Pink, Strawberry Slush, Shy Shamrock and Timid Tiger Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere a panel of 2024-2026 In-Color 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Framed All Around Birthday

Posted on by
4

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. Does anyone have any plans? It’s going to be a cold one here in NJ again today with temps in the teens and there’s a wind advisory; I’ll be at work all day today trying to stay warm. Who’s going to be watching the Super Bowl Sunday? I told my daughter I thought that would be a good time to go grocery shopping. Fun stuff huh?

Today’s card has a sneak peek of a new set coming out with the March Online Exclusives on March 3rd. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Framed All around Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Framed All Around Stamp Set (avail Mar 3) along with the Gallery Blooms 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper and Beautifully Celebrated Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Framed All around Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Color the flowers on a panel of Gallery Blooms DSP using the Cherry Cobbler Watercolor Pencil. go over the colored flowers using the Blender Pen to smooth the pencil streaks. Adhere the colored panel of Gallery Blooms DSP to a Cherry Cobbler mat.

Stampin' Up! Framed All around Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Wrap a piece of Basic Beige 3/8″ Classic Ribbon around the layered panel and tie a bow. Adhere the layered panel to a Basic Beige card base with Stampin’ Dimesionals.

Stampin' Up! Framed All around Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from the new Framed All Around stamp set in cherry Cobbler Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. Cut the sentiment out using the Beautifully Celebrated Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the card front, over the ribbon, with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a Pressed Flower Motifs to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Framed All around Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from the Framed All Around stamp set in cherry cobbler Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. Adhere a panel of the Gallery Blooms DSP to the side of the panel. Adhere the Basic Beige panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.

Stampin' Up! Framed All around Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish the card. Stamp the small flower image from the Gallery Blooms stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. Color the flower using the Cherry Cobbler Watercolor Pencil. Adhere a panel of Gallery Blooms DSP, that was colored the same way as the card front, to the envelope flap.
