Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Step Card for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
10

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have any plans for the weekend yet? I will only be at Ace all day Sunday working, I have off from the dog bakery this 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 Stampin’ Up! Pansy Petals Suite Collection for my fun fold card today.

My colors are from the Global Design Project #297.

This is the template to reproduce this card. I really hope you will try it out.

Once I made all the card base cuts, I decorated the card base. I started by stamping the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on a strip of Basic White cardstock. I adhered the sentiment to a Fresh Freesia mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the bottom of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered 2 panels of the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper to Fresh Freesia mats using Stampin’ Seal and then to either side of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the small pansy image from the Pansy Patch stamp set 3 times. Once in Blackberry Bliss full strength, once in Blackberry Bliss stamped off once and the 3rd in Blackberry Bliss full strength with Fresh Freesia over the top. I cut the 3 flowers out using the Pansy Dies. I cut 4 solid leaves, 4 detailed leaves and 2 stems from a panel of Pear Pizzazz cardstock using my Pansy Dies. Using my Sponge Dauber I added some Pear Pizzazz Ink to the detailed leaves. I adhered the detailed leaves to the solid leaves using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and adhered the 2 stems on top of one another using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the stems to a Basic White panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the leaves and flowers to the stem using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat using Stampin’ Seal. I wrapped a piece of Fresh Freesia 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon around the matted panel and tied a bow. I adhered the artwork to the middle panel of the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a little Bumblebee Trinket near the flowers.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the small pansy image from the Pansy Patch stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Blackberry Bliss Ink using the Masking Technique. I stamped the solid leaf image in Pear Pizzazz Ink, stamped off once and the detailed leaf image in Pear Pizzazz Ink on top of the solid leaves. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small pansy image from the Pansy Patch stamp set 3 times on the bottom front corner of the envelope using the masking technique. 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. If you do CASE this card, please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under this post.

Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by
12

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 Sketch Challenge. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this weeks Sketch.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers Cling Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set for today’s card.

My colors are from the Fab Friday Challenge #216.

I started by adhering a panel of the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper to a Flirty Flamingo mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I wrapped a piece of the black bakers twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack around the matted panel and tied a bow. I adhered the card front to a Flirty Flamingo card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the small sunflower image from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink next to the sunflower. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Fresh Freesia 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the small sunflower image from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a strip of the Pattern Party Host 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 Flirty Flamingo card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small sunflower image from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it in using my Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Pattern Party Host DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Seascape Thank You

Posted on by

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend. Is anyone starting to make plans?

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concept.  The inspiration photo is Long Summer Days. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bundle for my Clean and Layered card. The first thing that caught my eye when I looked at this photo was the blue seahorses then the wooden tray and other beach themed items.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concept and join us for our challenge #158. This will be our last challenge before our summer break and we will be keeping the link open until Monday, August 23rd, so be sure to stop by and play along. How are you inspired by this photo.

I started by adhering a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper to a Gray Granite mat using Stampin’ Seal. I cut a panel of Basic White cardstock using my Nature’s Thoughts Dies and using my Blending Brush, I brushed Balmy Blue Ink on it.

I cut a seahorse from a panel of Ombre Specialty Paper using my Sea Life Dies. Using the same dies, I cut the coral from a panel of Just Jade cardstock. I also cut the fish out of a scrap of Rainbow Glimmer Paper.

On the Basic White panel which I brushed with Balmy Blue Ink, I stamped the sand image from the Stampin’ Up! Seascape Cling Stamp Set in Sahara Sand Ink. I stamped the seaweed image from the Seascape stamp set in Just Jade Ink, stamping off once. I stamped the sentiment from the Seascape stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on the top of the panel. I adhered the panel to the card front using Stampin’ Seal and wrapped a piece of Gray Granite bakers twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack around the bottom of the panel. I adhered the coral to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I wrapped the seahorses tail around the coral and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added one of the little fish I had cut from the Rainbow Glimmer Paper to the artwork using a Glue Dot. I added a few of the Clear Epoxies from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials to the artwork.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Seascape stamp set in Night of Navy Ink towards the top of a Basic White panel. I stamped the sand image from the Seascape stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink along the bottom of the panel. I stamped the seaweed image from the Seascape stamp set in Just Jade Ink on either side of the panel. I added the other fish to the inside using a Glue Dot. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Gray Granite mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Gray Granite card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sand image from the Seascape stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink along the bottom front of the envelope. I stamped the seaweed image from the Seascape stamp set in Just Jade Ink on either side of the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the 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! In Symmetry Friendship

Posted on by
20

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I hope all the Father’s out there got a little spoiled.

I have a quick card for you today using a new set that I just got. Here’s my card for today.

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

My colors are from the Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #366.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #490.

I started by adhering a panel of the Sweet Symmetry DSP to a Bumblebee card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a panel of Bumblebee card stock to the card front using Stampin’ Seal.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the flower image from the In Symmetry stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink. I stamped the stem image from the In Symmetry stamp set in Just Jade Ink twice below the flower. I stamped the small, medium and large leaves from the In Symmetry stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the stem. I fussy cut the flower image using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the In Symmetry stamp set in Just Jade Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front 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 flower image from the In Symmetry stamp set twice, stamping off once each time, in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the In Symmetry stamp set in Just Jade Ink on top of the flower 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 decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the In Symmetry stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the stem and leaves in Just Jade Ink. 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!!

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!

Stampin’ Up! Spiral Dye Biggest Wish

Posted on by
10

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!!

Stampin’ Up Forever Fern Wedding

Posted on by
8

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend. Hope you have something fun planned for the weekend. Today’s my son’s 26th birthday. I can’t believe he’s 26 already, not sure when he got older, but I haven’t. He gets to celebrate with a broken fibula and a ruptured ankle, not much of a celebration. I have to work today, but to my surprise I have off tomorrow, YAY!!! Unfortunately my husband has to work. My intentions now are to get one of my gardens redone. We’ll see how that goes.

Today’s card is something different than my normal. No color. Years ago when my children were little, I did child care. A friend of mine and I both needed to work part-time so we decided to swap kids a couple days a week. It was an even swap till she had a 3rd child and needed me twice a week. I ended up watching her girls along with a couple others 2-3 times a week. I loved the girls that I watched and loved watching them grow up with mine. I was sad when the last one went off to Kindergarten and I only had them in the summer. Well, her middle child is getting marries and I’m going to make a few different wedding cards till I decide which one I want to give her. So here’s my first card for her.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Cling Stamp Set for my White on White card.

My design and color is from the Try Stamping On Tuesday Challenge #510.

I started by cutting a panel of Shimmery White cardstock using the Potted Succulents Dies and adhered it to a Thick Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I embossed a panel of Basic White cardstock using the Dotty Hearts Embossing Folder and adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a small panel of Shimmery White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Forever Fern stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Silver Embossing Folder and set it using my Heat Tool.

I adhered a piece of 1/2″ White Faux Lined Ribbon from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Pack to the back of the sentiment panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Forever Fern stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I cut 3 flowers from a panel of Shimmery White cardstock using the Potted Succulent Dies and adhered them on either side of the sentiment using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Shimmery White mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of In Good Taste 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!!

Changes To The Upcoming July-December Mini Catalog And Second Sale-a-bration


Stampin’ Up! has shared the following update with us related to the upcoming July-December Mini Catalog and second Sale-a-bration this year.  With the global shipping delays, they will be moving the start dates for those two publications back by one month.  Here are the details from Stampin’ Up!:

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!

Stampin’ Up! Jar of Flowers

Posted on by
15

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Hope you were able to take some time for yourself.

Today’s card I used an older set from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog, using all the new 2021-2023 in-Colors. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Jar of Flowers Photopolymer Stamp Set for today’s card.

My design is from the Just Add Ink Challenge #558.

I also played along with Inspire. Create Challenge #092.

I started by adhering a panel of the 2021-2023 In-Color 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Soft Succulent card base using Stampin’ Seal. I embossed a panel of Basic White cardstock using the Macramé 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to an Evening Evergreen mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the matted panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the flower image from the Jar Of Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Evening Evergreen, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Layering Circles Dies. I cut a scalloped circle from a panel of Evening Evergreen cardstock using my Layering Circles Dies and adhered the artwork to the scalloped mat using Stampin’ Seal then to the embossed panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I made a small bow using the Fresh Freesia 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon and adhered it to the artwork using a Glue Dot. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Friendship Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the 2021-2023 In-Color DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Evening Evergreen mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Soft Succulent card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Jar Of Flowers stamp set on the envelope front and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of the 2021-2023 In-Color 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! Dressed To Impress Hello

Posted on by
14

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? Is anyone doing anything fun? I’ve got today off for my team meeting, YAY!!!

For today’s card I pulled out an older set from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Dressed To Impress Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

My design is from CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #423.

My colors are from the Color Throwdown Challenge #646.

I started by embossing a panel of Smoky Slate card stock using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder. I adhered a panel of the Night of Navy Ombre Specialty Paper to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and adhered the card front to a Smoky Slate card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White Cardstock I stamped the perfume bottle and the shoe image from the Dressed To Impress stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Pool Party and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I brushed Wink of Stella on the shoe images to give it a little shimmer. I cut the images out using my All Dressed Up Dies. I adhered the die cut pieces to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a small panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Dressed To Impress stamp set in Night of Navy Ink. I stamped the splotch image from the Dressed To Impress stamp set in Pool Party Ink around the sentiment. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Dressed To Impress stamp set in Night of navy Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the splotch image around the sentiment in Pool Party Ink. I stamped the perfume bottle and shoe image from the Dressed To Impress stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the images in using my Pool Party and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pool Party mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the perfume bottle on the envelope front and the shoe image from the Dressed To Impress stamp set on the envelope flap in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the splotch image in Pool Party Ink on the envelope flap. I colored the images in using my Night of Navy, Pool Party and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers.

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

Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Square Card

Posted on by
6

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Hope you have some fun plans for the weekend. I’ll be at work today and tomorrow is our in person quarterly team meeting. I’m really looking forward to getting together with some of my team members to do some stamping and just talking, especially after the week I’ve had. It started with my dog last Saturday ending up at the animal hospital and ended Thursday with my son being brought to the ER. It’s going to be a long summer which is not going to go as planned. He had all these soccer camps lined up that he was going to be running, instead he will be healing with a broken leg and sprained ankle.

Today’s card is something different than what I normally do. I’ve made a square card. I’ve always stayed away from them because of not having the envelopes. I’ve figured a way around that. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper.

My design is from the Fab Friday Challenge #215.

I started by adhering a panel of the Pansy Petals DSP to an Evening Evergreen mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Soft Seafoam card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, I cut the largest frame from a panel of Evening Evergreen cardstock and the next size smaller from a panel of Basic White cardstock. In the center of the Basic White frame I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink. I adhered the Basic White frame the the Evening Evergreen using Stampin’ Seal then adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a few Loose Flower Flourishes to the card front using Glue Dots. In the center of the 2 larger flowers I added Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the small pansy images from the Pansy Patch stamp set on either side of the sentiment in Calypso Coral and Pale Papaya Inks, both stamped off once on scrap paper. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Evening Evergreen mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Soft Seafoam card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the pansy image from the Pansy Patch stamp set on the envelope front using Calypso Coral and Pale Papaya Inks. 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! A Good Man

Posted on by
8

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend. Is anyone starting to make plans?

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concept. For the next 2 weeks we have a Vacation Time challenge. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! A Good Man Cling Stamp Set for my card today. I was inspired by the trees in the photo and the woodgrain in the inspiration photo for my Clean and Layered card. I decided to make a card of a man vacationing and relaxing.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concept and join us this week to play along with our challenge #157. How are you inspired by this photo?

I joined in with Always Fun Challenges #217, “Layers”.

I started by adhering a panel of the Beauty of The Earth DSP to an Early Espresso card base using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered 2 more panels of the Beauty of The Earth DSP to Early Espresso mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the smaller panel to the card front using Stampin’ Seal and the ‘tree’ panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the image from A Good Man stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Ivory, Pool Party and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Hippo & Friends Dies. From a panel of Early Espresso cardstock I cut the next size larger Hippo & Friends Dies and adhered the artwork using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from A Good Man stamp set in Night of Navy Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around the sentiment twice and tied a knot. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from A Good Man stamp set in Night of Navy Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I adhered a panel of Beauty of The Earth DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Early Espresso mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Early Espresso card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the image from A Good Man stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Beauty of The Earth 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!!
