Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. 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 Mary’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Love”. We can interpret this however we want. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Country Bouquet Valentine 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Country Bouquet Valentine 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Country Floral Lane DSP to a Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered 2 panels of Country Floral Lane DSP to Mossy Meadow mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Country Bouquet Valentine 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the leaf image from the Country Bouquet stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink. I stamped the floral image from the Country Bouquet stamp set over the leaf image in Petal Pink Ink. I adhered the stamped panel to a Mossy Meadow mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2022-2024 Matte Decorative Dots to the stamped image.

Stampin' Up! Country Bouquet Valentine 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Country Bouquet stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I cut the sentiment using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensional and Stampin’ Seal. I colored a couple of the Heart Pearls using my dark Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Marker. I adhered the Heart Pearls to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Country Bouquet stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the small outline heart image from the Country Bouquet stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on either side of the sentiment. I stamped the small solid heart image from the Country Bouquet stamp set over the outline image in Petal Pink Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mossy Meadow mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the outline heart image from the Country Bouquet stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink twice on the envelope front. I stamped the solid heart image from the Country Bouquet stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the outline image. I adhered a panel of Country Floral Lane DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Drapery Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora Bundle and the Stampin’ Up! Something Fancy Cling Stamp Set along with the Fancy Flora 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my Drapery Fold card today.

Our theme this week is a Fun Fold YAY!!!

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Drapery Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by scoring, cutting and folding a panel of Fancy Flora DSP as in the diagram below.

This is my template for the drapery fold.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Drapery Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on the top of the panel. I stamped the tall leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pool Party Ink along the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to the top of a Fresh Freesia mat using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the drapery folded panel of Fancy Floral DSP to the bottom of the mat using Tear & Tape on the top of the panel and Multipurpose Liquid Glue along the larger side of the panel. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, stamp 3 of the flower images from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set. Stamp the detail images in Orchid Oasis Ink and the solid images in Fresh Freesia Ink. Stamp the leaf image from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink 4 times. Cut all the images out using the Two-Tone Flora Dies.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Drapery Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I wrapped a piece of the Pool Party 3/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon around the layered panel and adhered it to the back using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the die cut flowers to the top of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the leaves under the flowers using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Glue Dots. I adhered the panel to the Orchid Oasis card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Pastel Gems to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Drapery Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped 2 of the flower images from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set on the top and bottom of the panel. I stamped the details images in Orchid Oasis Ink and the solid images in Fresh Freesia Ink. I stamped the leaf image from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set by the flowers in Soft Succulent Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat then to the inside of the Orchid Oasis card base.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Drapery Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small flower cluster image from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set in Orchid Oasis and Fresh Freesia Inks on the bottom front of the envelope. I adhered a panel of the Fancy Flora DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you. I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Sketch Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s sketch.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy Sale-a-bration Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Design A Daydream Host Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our sketch for this week.

My colors are from Inspire. Create. Stamping Challenge #132.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Design A Daydream DSP to a Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the outline image of the large floral image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Early Espresso Ink. I stamped the flower fill image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Petal Pink Ink. I stamped the leaf fill image in Granny Apple Green Ink. I stamped the flower center and the splotch image around the flowers in Rich Razzleberry Ink. I adhered the stamped image to an Early Espresso mat. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a strip of Early Espresso cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensional and Stampin’ Seal. I added a few Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

For the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the outline floral image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the flower fill image in Petal Pink Ink and the leaf fill image in Granny Apple Green Ink. I stamped the flower center and the splotch image in Rish Razzleberry Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to an early Espresso mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set on the envelope front the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Design A Daydream DSP to the envelope flap.

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.

The theme this month is “Celebrate”. We can interpret this however we want. I’m celebrating with a Birthday card. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Framed Florets Bundle along with the Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Fitting Florets DSP to a Blushing Bride card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. From a panel of Blushing Bride Brushstroke Specialty Paper, I cut the frame using my Framed Florets Dies. I adhered the frame to the card front. I stamped the sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the sentiment using the same frame die from the Framed Florets Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the inside of the frame using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Fitting Florets DSP, I cut 2 of the flower images out using the Framed Florets Dies. I adhered the flower images to the sides of the framed using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I brushed a panel of White Glimmer paper using my Blending Brush and Soft Succulent Ink. I cut 4 of the leaf dies from the Framed Florets Dies from the panel. I adhered the leaves to the card front just under the flower image using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I brushed the die cut flower images from the Fitting Florets DSP using my Clear Wink of Stella Brush. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Opal Rounds to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the leaf image from the Framed Florets stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink below the sentiment. I stamped the flower images on either side of the sentiment in Blushing Bride Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat then to the inside of the blushing Bride card base.

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! Desert Details for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you. I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Sketch Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s sketch.

Stampin' Up! Desert Details 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the New Stampin’ Up! Desert Details Bundle along with the Delicate Desert Designer Series Paper for my card today. These products will be available in the upcoming January – April 2023 Mini Catalog starting January 5, 2023.

This is our sketch for this week.

Stampin' Up! Desert Details 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering 2 strips of the new Dry Brushed Metallic Specialty Designer Series Paper to the top and bottom of a Pale Papaya card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a panel of the Delicate Desert DSP to the center of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I stamped the large flower image from the Stampin’ Up! Desert Details Cling Stamp Set on the DSP card front. I inked the flower image with Soft Succulent Ink and used my Sponge Dauber to add some Evening Evergreen Ink around the edges.

Stampin' Up! Desert Details 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the large flower image from the Desert Details stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink adding Evening Evergreen Ink to the edges using my Sponge Dauber. I cut the image out using my Desert Details Dies.

Stampin' Up! Desert Details 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Soft Succulent cardstock, I cut the aloe die from the Desert Details Dies. I adhered the die cut flower and aloe to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Desert Details stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front over the die cut images using Glue Dots. I added a few of the new Gold Faceted Adhesive-Backed Sequins to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Desert Details 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Desert Details stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large flower image from the Desert Details stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Soft Succulent Ink using my Sponge Dauber to edge the flower in Evening Evergreen Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Calypso Coral mat then to the inside of the Pale Papaya card base.

Stampin' Up! Desert Details 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Desert Details stamp set on the envelope front in Soft Succulent Ink. I adhered a panel of the Delicate Desert DSP to the envelope flap.

I started by randomly stamping the snowflake images from the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink all over the Starry Sky card front. I sprinkled the panel with Clear Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the card front to a Starry Sky card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Joyful Flurry 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Joyful Flurry stamp set in Starry Sky Ink. I used one of the snowflake dies that doesn’t completely cut out the image, from the Frosted Flurry Dies and cut above the sentiment. I cut the panel using my Deckled Rectangle Dies.

Stampin' Up! Joyful Flurry 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the Basic White panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Starry Sky mat then to the inside of the Starry Sky card base.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry Cling Stamp Set along with the Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Joyful Flurry CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Joyful Flurry stamp set in Pacific Point Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the snowflake images from the Joyful Flurry stamp set in Pacific Point Ink around the sentiment, some stamped off once and some twice. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Balmy Blue mat and then to the inside of the Pacific Point card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the snowflake images from the Joyful Flurry stamp set in Pacific Point Ink on the envelope front. Some stamped off once and some twice. I adhered a panel of Storybook Gnomes 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! Jingle Jingle Jingle 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 having a good week. If you are starting with me, thank you. I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Color Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s Colors.

Stampin' Up! Jingle Jingle Jingle 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Jingle Jingle Jingle Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Very Best Occasions Cling Stamp Set along with the Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Here are our colors for this week.

Stampin' Up! Jingle Jingle Jingle 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Sweetest Christmas DSP to a Garden Green mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Sweet Sorbet card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Jingle Jingle Jingle 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the 2 sentiments from the Jingle Jingle Jingle stamp set in Garden Green Ink. I stamped the sentiment fill image from the Jingle Jingle Jingle stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink over the outlined image. I adhered the stamped panel to a Garden Green mat. I wrapped a piece of 2022-2024 In-Color Bakers Twine Pack around the side of the panel and tied a bow.

Stampin' Up! Jingle Jingle Jingle 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Flat Jingle Bell Trinket by the bow with a Glue Dot. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Seasonal Sequins to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Jingle Jingle Jingle 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Very Best Occasions stamp set in Garden Green Ink. I stamped the string of lights image from the Jingle Jingle Jingle stamp set in Garden Green Ink. I stamped the lights in with Sweet Sorbet, Pool Party, Real Red and Garden Green Inks. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Garden Green mat then to the inside of the Sweet Sorbet card base.

Stampin' Up! Jingle Jingle Jingle 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the string of lights image from the Jingle Jingle Jingle stamp set across the top of the envelope front in Garden Green Ink and filled the light images in with Sweet Sorbet, Pool Party, Real Red and Garden Green Inks. I adhered a panel of Sweetest Christmas DSP to the envelope flap.
