Stampin’ Up! Everyday Details Vase

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you are working on some fun plans for the day or weekend. I’ll be in my house all day, too cold out there and still not at 100%. It snowed here all day yesterday, but it was so light and slow that my daughter never had to go out to shovel. It snowed on the grass but never the driveway or sidewalk. She was very happy. To say that Coraline loves the snow is an understatement. She heads out to our backyard and immediately sticks her nose in it, grabs a mouthful and runs.

I have a quick card for you today playing with some new products, Online Exclusive DSP and 2022-2024 In-Colors that will be leaving us this year. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made my card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details Vase 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Everyday Details Bundle along with the Online Exclusive Delightful Floral Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I played along with the Inspire. Create. Stamping Challenge #159

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details Vase 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by using the largest rectangle die from the Everyday Details Dies and cut the center out of a Delightful Floral DSP card front. I adhered the framed piece to a Basic White mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to an Orchid Oasis card base using Stampin” Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Everyday Details Vase 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the vase image from the Stampin’ Up! Everyday Details Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of the panel. I colored the image using Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly, Orchid Oasis and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the largest rectangle die from the Everyday Details Dies. I adhered the colored image to the center of the frame on the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Everyday Details stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink. I cut the ends on an angle using Paper Snips. I tied a small bow using the 2022-2024 In-Color Baker’s Twine. I adhered the bow to the side of the raised artwork using a Glue Dot. I adhered the sentiment to the card front over the bow using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2022-2024 In-Color Pearls to the card front.

Good Monday morning stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I stayed in most of yesterday, it was too cold and windy out for me. I can handle some cold, but when it’s windy out too I end up with a migraine, so best to stay indoors.

Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine 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 Color Challenge. 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 using this week’s colors.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Heartfelt Hellos Cling Stamp Set, Bee Mine Designer Series Paper and Hot Air Balloons Dies for my card today.

These are out colors for this week

My design is from Sunday Stamps Challenge #326.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Bee Mine DSP to a Pool Party card base using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered 2 more panels of Bee Mine DSP to Pool Party mats using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the larger layered panel to the card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered the smaller layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Hot Air Balloons Dies, I cut a heart from a panel of Sweet Sorbet. I stamped the honeycomb image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on the heart. I adhered the heart to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a strip of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink. I cut the ends on an angle using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few of the Tinsel Gems Four Pack to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Sale-a-bration Heartfelt Hellos stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered 2 strips of Bee Mine DSP on either side of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pool Party mat then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the honeycomb image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Bee Mine 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! Fluffiest Friends for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We are already halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend. How is everyone’s week going? It’s been nothing but rain for the last 24 hours. Heavy rain and windy. We were in a State of Emergency starting yesterday because of flooding. I was up half the night listening to the rain, wind and my sump pump gong off every 2 minutes. The good thing is, it’s going off and keeping the water away from my house the best it can. I believe the flood warnings are in effect until 6pm tonight.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We are doing month-long challenges now, so you have all month to enter multiple times.  The inspiration photo #203 is New Year Love. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Valentine 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet Photopolymer Stamp Set, Tree Rings Hybrid 3D Embossing Folder, Deckled Circles Dies, Bee Mine Designer Series Paper and One Horse Open Sleigh 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 203.  How are you inspired by the photos?

I joined in with Global Design Projects #427.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Valentine 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a panel of Pecan Pie using the Tree Rings EF. I adhered the embossed panel to a Garden Green mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered 2 panels of Bee Mine DSP to the card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Sweet Sorbet card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Valentine 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the adorable beaver image from the Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the wood pile image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the same panel. I colored the images in using Ivory, Neutrals #300 & #800, Pecan Pie, Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using the Fluffiest Friends Dies. Using the Deckled Circles Dies, I cut a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP. I adhered the circle to the card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered the beaver and wood pile to the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Valentine 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Country Bouquet stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink. I adhered a piece of Sweet Sorbet Bakers Twine from the 2022-2024 In-Color Bakers Twine Pack to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the Bakers Twine using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added an Adhesive Backed Hearts & Flowers embellishment to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Valentine 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment form the Country Bouquet stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink. I stamped the beaver image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the top of the wood pile image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink below the beaver. I colored the images the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Sweet Sorbet card base,

Stampin’ Up! Inspirational Sketches Grateful

Good Sunday morning stamping friends and Merry Christmas Eve!! I hope you are getting the last of everything finished up and getting ready for the big day. To my surprise, I don’t have to work today, which I’m really happy about. I still have wrapping to do and I haven’t made the rice pudding yet. My mom always made it every year for Christmas and my husband got used to having it and loves it. So that will be the first thing on my list of things to do today. 

My card today uses a mix of new products coming in the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog and product from the Annual Catalog. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made my card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Grateful 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Inspirational Sketches Cling Stamp Set along with the Bee Mine Designer Series Paper both are from the upcoming mini catalog. I also used the Darling Details Dies for my card today.

The colors in my card were from the Global Design Project Challenge #425.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Grateful 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers and the Ribbon from the Stampin’ Up!

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 with labels listing the NameItem # and Colors in the pack 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!

As a Thank you gift for joining in on my paper share, I will be including a sampling of some of the new Sale-a-bration DSP that will be available with qualifying orders.

Stampin’ Up! Lovely & Sweet Notes of Nature

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. Well, there are only 5 more sleeps until Christmas. I’ll be going out shopping with my daughter today after I’m done with work, and she’s done with her last final exam. We’re heading to a quaint little town with all kinds of little shops. It’s supposed to be a sunny cool day, so it’ll be nice walking around the town. I’m hoping to get whatever else I need today so that I can get things wrapped. I’m going to be playing it close since I have to work the next 5 days and I don’t have my normal time off.

I played with a new suite from the upcoming January-April 2024 Mini Catalog for today’s card. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

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.

January-April 2024 Mini Catalog Paper Shares Ordering Is Open

Do you want all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers and pretty Ribbon in the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog but can’t afford everything?  I’m doing a Designer Series Paper Share and a Ribbon Share! What is a Paper Share and a Ribbon Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers and the Ribbon from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Minil Catalog.  If you were to purchase all of the DSP and Ribbon in the new Mini Catalog, it would cost you over $141.00 plus shipping.

New Designer Series Paper Share – $15.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail Shipping

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Mini Catalog and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on January 4th. 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 January 15th.

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 with labels listing the NameItem # and Colors in the pack 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!

New Designer Series Paper Share – $15.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail shipping

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

  • Bee Mine – 6
  • Forever Love – 6
  • Just Kiddin’ -6
  • Light Than Air 6″ X 6″ – 8
  • Nature’s Sweetest – 6

  • Rock & Roll – 6

In all, you’ll receive 50 – 6” x 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!

Double DSP Share – $30 + $8.50 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, I’m offering those too!  I’ll cut the 12″ x 12″ designer paper sheets into 6″ × 12″ so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet and you’ll get double sheets of the 6″ x 6″ since they’re already precut.

As a Thank you gift for joining in on my paper share, I will be including a sampling of some of the new Sale-a-bration DSP that will be available with qualifying orders. I believe there are 5 different DSPs in the Sale-a-bration catalog. I’m not sure yet which ones I’ll be including, it might be 1, 3 or all 5.

New Ribbon Share – $10.00 plus $8.50 Priority Mail Shipping

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Forest Sympathy

Good Sunday morning stamping friends and Happy Sunday. It’s a very gloomy day here in NJ with rain expected. My backyard still hasn’t dried out from last weekend’s rain, it’s like walking on a sponge back there. Because of it being so spongy and wet, Coraline can’t go out and run around. Well, she can but then that means I have to give her a bath immediately. My husband went to get out tree yesterday, brought it in and got it all set up and decorated. NOW my decorating is complete. I’ll be putting together cookie trays today so that I can deliver they all by Wednesday at the latest.

Today I have a very quick CAS card for you using one set that is carrying over from the Sept-Dec Mini Catalog and one from the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog. 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! Fragrant Forest Sympathy 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Forest Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle for my card today.

I played along with the CAS On Friday Challenge #272 – Black, White and One Color.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Sympathy 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the large image from the Fragrant Forest stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White card front, larger than what I needed. I trimmed the edges using the Paper Trimmer.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Sympathy 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the card front to a Pecan Pie mat using Stampin’ Seal. I wrapped a piece of Pecan Pie 1/2″ Bordered Ribbon around the layered panel and tied a knot. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Sympathy 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the lined hexagon image from the Stampin’ Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink inside the hexagon image. I punched the sentiment out using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals and added an Opaque Faceted Gem to the sentiment. The Gems are a free product from the Sale-a-bration catalog starting January 4.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Sympathy 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the floral image from the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Pecan Pie Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Sympathy 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Sympathy 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

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

Stampin’ Up! Softly Said

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. This is the final countdown to Christmas. Have you gotten your shopping done, decorated and baking done? My decorating is done. I’ve gotten most of my baking done, I just have a little bit to finish up today. I haven’t gotten my cards out yet or gone shopping. I’m hoping to get some shopping done this weekend. I’m planning on writing out my cards this morning and get any finishing touches done on my cookies after that. I’m hoping to do a little bit of shopping when my daughter gets home from work with my car and maybe do some tomorrow. I made sure I had the whole weekend off to get all my baking done, and I got a lot more than I expected done yesterday. 

I have a quick card for you today using some Online Exclusive products. If you’d like to see how I made this card, Click Here to see my Instagram Reel. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Softly Said Thank You 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used some Online Exclusive products for my card today. I used Stampin’ Up! Softly Said Cling Stamp Set and Delightful Floral Designer Series Paper. I also used the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Cling Stamp Set.

My design is from Sunday Stamps Challenge #324.

Stampin' Up! Softly Said Thank You 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a Delightful Floral DSP card front to a Pretty Peacock mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Berry Burst card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Softly Said Thank You 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Delightful Floral DSP, I stamped the sentiment from the Softly Said stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using the 2nd largest die from the Deckled Rectangle Dies. I adhered the sentiment to a Pretty Peacock mat using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Softly Said Thank You 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered sentiment panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered 3 small knots to the card front with Glue Dots, that I made using the Pretty Peacock 3/8″ Metallic Ribbon (available January 4th).

Stampin' Up! Softly Said Thank You 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the flower image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Berry Burst Ink on the bottom of the panel, stamping off on scrap paper once. I stamped the leaf image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on the panel, stamping off 3 times on scrap paper. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pretty Peacock mat then to the inside of the Berry Burst card base.

Stampin' Up! Softly Said Thank You 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Berry Burst Ink on the envelope front, stamping off once on scrap paper. I stamped the leaves by the flower in Pretty Peacock Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. I adhered a panel of Delightful Florals DSP to the envelope flap.

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

  • Bee Mine – 6
  • Forever Love – 6
  • Just Kiddin’ -6
  • Light Than Air 6″ X 6″ – 8
  • Nature’s Sweetest – 6
  • Perennial Lavender – 6
  • Poetic Expressions – 6
  • Rock & Roll – 6

In all, you’ll receive 50 – 6” x 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!

Double DSP Share – $30 + $8.50 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, I’m offering those too!  I’ll cut the 12″ x 12″ designer paper sheets into 6″ × 12″ so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet and you’ll get double sheets of the 6″ x 6″ since they’re already precut.

As a Thank you gift for joining in on my paper share, I will be including a sampling of some of the new Sale-a-bration DSP that will be available with qualifying orders. I believe there are 5 different DSPs in the Sale-a-bration catalog. I’m not sure yet which ones I’ll be including, it might be 1, 3 or all 5.

New Ribbon Share – $10.00 plus $8.50 Priority Mail Shipping

All ribbons will come individually wrapped and labeled with the name and number of the product. Please note that ribbons are being divided differently, you will be getting one fourth of a roll of each of the Ribbons or Baker’s Twine.

One-Fourth of a Roll of each:

  • 1/4″ Sweet Sorbet Bordered Ribbon
  • 3/8″ Pretty Peacock & Gold Metallic Ribbon
  • Baker’s Twine Three Color Pack
  • 1/8″ Gold Faux Leather Trim

Double Ribbon Share – $20 + $8.50 Priority Mail Shipping – If you’d like double shares of the Ribbon, you will be getting 1/2 of the roll or each ribbon and baker’s twine.

If you would like the Designer Series Paper Share AND the Ribbon Share the cost will be:

$25 for a single share + $8.50 shipping

$50 for a double share + $8.50 shipping.
