Stampin’ Up! Back To Back Blooms CAS

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. I’m very excited to be a Guest Designer for the month of January for the CAS Colours & Sketch Challenge. I used the new Stampin’ Up! Back To Back Blooms Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card. Here is my card for today.

Here are the Colours & Sketch Colors for Challenge #401 this week.

I started by stamping the flower and leaf images from the Back to Back Blooms stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I colored the images in using my Bermuda Bay and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the largest flower from the Back to Back Blooms stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the image in using my Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the image using my Paper Snips.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Lovely You Cling Stamp Set on the top of the Whisper White panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I embossed the panel using my Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the fussy cut flower to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered the matted card front to a Cherry Cobbler card base using Stampin’ Seal and added a few Cherry Cobbler Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the top by the sentiment.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Path of Petals Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the large flower image and the leaf image from the Back to Back Blooms stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Bermuda Bay and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Cherry Cobbler card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the large flower image and the leaf image from the Back to Back Blooms stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and the smaller flower images on the envelope flap. I colored the images in using my Bermuda Bay, Cherry Cobbler and Pool Party 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! Heal Your Heart CAS

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s weekend going? Why is it weekends go so quick and weekdays seem to drag? I’ll be working again today and I have a feeling it’s going to be a slow day, like watching paint dry slow. Yesterday I worked a little later than I expected, I forgot it was the 1st of the year and I had to do a little extra with my bills.

For today I have another Black & White card for you. I’m usually all about color, not quite sure what’s going on with me. I used the Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart Cling Stamp Set for my card which is a Sale-A-Bration item. Here’s my card for today.

I played along with the TGIF Color Challenge #297.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Heal Your Heart stamp set (available January 5th) on the bottom of a Whisper White panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I embossed the panel using the Dandelion 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted card front to a Thick Whisper White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Heal Your Heart stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the dandelion image from the Stampin’ Up! Garden Wishes Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the dandelion image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the True Love Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my Clean and Simple, Quick and Easy card for today and will give it a try. This stamp set is a free set during Sale-A-Bration starting Tuesday January 5th, with a qualifying order of $50. If you are in need of a catalog, please feel free to drop me a note and I will get one out to you ASAP. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Hello

Good Saturday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s long weekend going? I have to go into work for a bit today. Since the store was closed yesterday I have to go in today to get all my bills out. Hopefully everything will go nice and smooth and I’ll be out shortly after noon.

For today’s card I used the Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Bundle which is in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog along with some gorgeous DSP that will be available in the Sale-A-Bration Catalog starting on Tuesday January 5th. Here’s my card for today.

My design was inspired from the Global Design Project #272.

I played along with Just Us Girl’s Challenge #565. They have a Word Week.

I started by adhering a panel of the Oh So Ombre 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper (Sale-A-Bration item available Jan. 5th) to a Rococo Rose card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Just Jade Stampin’ Blends Markers and cut the image using one of the border dies from the Curvy Dies. On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment and 2 birds from the Quite Curvy stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the birds in using my Balmy Blue and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers and cut them out using the Curvy Dies. I cut the sentiment out using the smallest Stitched So Sweetly Dies, I also cut the next size larger die from a panel of Just Jade cardstock.

I adhered the curved border to the left side of the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the birds 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 Quite Curvy stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the leaf image and the bird images from the Quite Curvy stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the images in using my Balmy Blue, Just Jade and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Rococo Rose mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Rococo Rose card base using Multipurpose Liquid glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the leaf and bird images from the Quite Curvy stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom front of the envelope and colored the images in using my Balmy Blue, Just Jade and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Oh So Ombre 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! Art Gallery Sympathy Sneak Peek

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s weekend going? I had to work all day yesterday and again today. I’m looking forward to another short week coming up, how about you?

For today’s card I used the Stampin’ Up! Art Gallery Photopolymer Stamp Set to make a sympathy card for you today. This set will be available January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Try Stamping On Tuesday Challenge #487. Here is their sketch.

I started by adhering a panel of the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper to a Pretty Peacock card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut the edges of a panel of Pretty Peacock cardstock using the Ornate Borders Dies. I adhered a strip of Fine Art Floral DSP to the die cut panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted DSP to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink. I cut the sentiment into a banner using my Banner Triple Punch and stamped it with the large floral image from the Art Gallery stamp set in Pool Party Ink, stamping off once. I adhered the bannered sentiment to a strip of Pool Party cardstock, which I cut using the Banners Pick A Punch, using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set in Pretty Peacock Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the large floral image from the Art Gallery stamp set in Pool Party Ink, stamping off once, over the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Pool Party mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pretty Peacock card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I stamped the floral image from the Art Gallery stamp set in Pool Party Ink on the envelope front. I stamped once full strength and a couple more times stamped off once. I adhered a panel of the Fine Art Floral DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. The stamp set and DSP will be available in less than 10 days from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Happy Stamping!!

WHISPER WHITE CARDSTOCK PRODUCTS- AVAILABLE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

Stampin’ Up! announced this information related to the Whisper White paper products late last evening:

Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.

We know Whisper White has a huge fan base; we’re big fans, too! And we are crushed that it’s going away. Even though this decision was out of our hands, rest assured that we jumped right into action to find the best replacement paper possible. We have dedicated many hours to source and test alternative cardstock options from several suppliers to find the perfect fit that still maintains the Stampin’ Up! quality you know and trust. We are happy to share that we have found a winner for our new cardstock, Basic White!

The quality of our new Basic White was thoroughly tested by our quality assurance and product teams. It also tested very well with demonstrators and concept artists who gave it a huge thumbs up. We believe in the quality of the new Basic White cardstock and we know it will become your new crafting staple!

What does this mean for you?

With Whisper White going out of production, this means a number of Whisper White products will be affected. Below is a list of all products that will be replaced with our new Basic White cardstock. These items are now available while supplies last with an order limit of 2 per item per order.

  • Whisper White 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cardstock (124302)
  • Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes (149710)
  • Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes (131527)
  • Whisper White 3″ x 3″ (7.6 x 7.6 cm) Envelopes (145829)
  • Whisper White 8-1/2″ x 11″ Cardstock (100730)
  • Whisper White 8-1/2″ x 11″ Thick Cardstock (140272)
  • Whisper White Medium Envelopes (107301)

Our new Basic White products will become available to purchase as soon as we have them in stock. This means that some Whisper White and Basic White products may be available at the same time. Additionally, due to the nature of sourcing, some Basic White products may not be available before the Whisper White products sell out. Please know that we are working on getting these products available to you as fast as possible.

Stampin’ Up! Oh Snap Sneak Peek

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s Christmas? I had a very quiet one this year, it was just my husband, daughter and I at home. We usually have all the family over for Christmas Eve, but with everything going on right now, I felt better with no one coming over. I hope you were all able to spend some time with loved ones in one way or another. Was Santa good to all of you? Maybe some new stamp sets or DSP.

I have a sneak peek for you of an upcoming set from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. I saw this set and my little nephew loves alligators and crocodiles so I just had to get it. It’s the Stampin’ Up! Oh Snap Photopolymer Stamp Set. Here’s my card for today.

My colors are from the Fab Friday Challenge #204. Here are their colors.

I played along with Crazy 4 Challenges #565 using sketch #518. Here is their challenge.

I started by stamping the crocodile, fish and frog images from the Oh Snap stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the leaf image from the Oh Snap stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the images in using my Poppy Parade & Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz Stampin’ Write Markers.

I stamped the sentiments from the Oh Snap stamp set in Seaside Spray Ink on the panel on top and center of the crocodile.

I adhered a panel of Pear Pizzazz Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Pear Pizzazz card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut the smallest circle from the Layering Circles Dies out of a scrap of Poppy Parade cardstock and adhered it in the top corner of the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and added a piece of the Seaside Spray 1/4″ Metallic Ribbon to the right side using a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the crocodile and fish images from the Oh Snap stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a Whisper White panel. I stamped the sentiments from the Oh Snap stamp set in Seaside Spray Ink on the panel. I colored the images in using my Poppy Parade and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Poppy Parade mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pear Pizzazz card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. Since I am hand delivering the card I stamped the whole crocodile image from the Oh Snap stamp set on the front of the envelope along with the fish image. I colored the images in using my Poppy Parade and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Subtle DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you like my card. The stamp set I used will be available on January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. If you need a demonstrator and would like a copy of the catalog, drop me a line at creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com and I will get one out to you. Happy Stamping!!

WHISPER WHITE CARDSTOCK PRODUCTS- AVAILABLE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

Stampin’ Up! announced this information related to the Whisper White paper products late last evening:

Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.

We know Whisper White has a huge fan base; we’re big fans, too! And we are crushed that it’s going away. Even though this decision was out of our hands, rest assured that we jumped right into action to find the best replacement paper possible. We have dedicated many hours to source and test alternative cardstock options from several suppliers to find the perfect fit that still maintains the Stampin’ Up! quality you know and trust. We are happy to share that we have found a winner for our new cardstock, Basic White!

The quality of our new Basic White was thoroughly tested by our quality assurance and product teams. It also tested very well with demonstrators and concept artists who gave it a huge thumbs up. We believe in the quality of the new Basic White cardstock and we know it will become your new crafting staple!

What does this mean for you?

With Whisper White going out of production, this means a number of Whisper White products will be affected. Below is a list of all products that will be replaced with our new Basic White cardstock. These items are now available while supplies last with an order limit of 2 per item per order.

  • Whisper White 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cardstock (124302)

  • Whisper White Medium Envelopes (107301)

Our new Basic White products will become available to purchase as soon as we have them in stock. This means that some Whisper White and Basic White products may be available at the same time. Additionally, due to the nature of sourcing, some Basic White products may not be available before the Whisper White products sell out. Please know that we are working on getting these products available to you as fast as possible.

Stampin’ Up! Pampered Pets

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s week starting out? The next 2 weeks will be short working weeks for most. I know I’m looking forward to having Thursday and Friday off this week. I’ve gotten most of my cookie trays done, so I’m going to deliver a few this morning before going in to work. I’ll deliver the rest tomorrow.

For today’s card I pulled out the Stampin’ Up! Pampered Pets Bundle from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog and mixed it with the Stampin’ Up! Many Messages Bundle from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #466. Here is their sketch.

I started by adhering a panel of Playful Pets Designer Series Paper to a Real Red card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a small panel of Playful Pets DSP using Stampin’ Seal over the 1st panel.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the dog bowl image from the Stampin’ Up! Pampered Pets Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I added a tiny amount of color around the edges of the bowl using my Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Marker then used the Color Lifter to remove most of the color. I embossed the panel using my Subtle 3D Embossing Folder. On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the dog image from the Pampered Pets stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the dog in using my Flirty Flamingo, Real Red and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Pets Dies and adhered it to the embossed panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the panel to a Real Red mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue then adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Many Messages Cling Stamp in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Messages Die. This bundle is 1 stamp with many sentiments on it and 1 die that cuts out all the sentiments at once and will be available January 5, 2021. I adhered the sentiment to the bottom of the artwork using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a couple of the Playful Pets Trinkets, one to the sentiment and one on the dog.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pampered Pets stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the dog and bowl images from the Pampered Pets stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored the image in using my Flirty Flamingo, Real Red and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Real Red mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Real Red card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the dog and bowl images from the Pampered Pets stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the front of the envelope. I colored the image in using my Flirty Flamingo, Real Red and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Playful Pets 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! Posted For You for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends and welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. How is everyone doing today? It’s very cold here. We got quite a bit of snow yesterday and it’s continuing into today. Perfect day for me to be baking. If you are hopping over from Akiko, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a color challenge. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s awesome projects.
Here are our colors for this week

Here’s my card using these colors.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Posted For You Cling Stamp Set for my card today. My design is from Try Stamping on Tuesday Challenge #486. Here is their sketch.

I started by embossing a panel of Pool Party cardstock using the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the floral image from the Posted For You stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I colored the image in using my Old Olive and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the round sentiment from the Posted For You stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the same panel of Whisper White cardstock. I cut the images out using the Stitched Shapes Dies. Using the Layering Circles Die, I cut 2 circles from a panel of Flowers For Every Season 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper. I cut 4 scalloped circles from a panel of Early Espresso cardstock matching the sizes of the circles, using the Layering Circles Dies. I adhered the circles to the scalloped circles using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Posted For You stamp set in Versamark Ink on a strip of Misty Moonlight cardstock. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the panel of Misty Moonlight cardstock to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a small piece of 1/4″ Old Olive Ribbon from the Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo Pack using a small amount of Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the 2 stamped circles to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the 2 DSP circles to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Cling Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Posted For You stamp set in Pool Party Ink, stamping off once, over the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to an Early Espresso mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Posted For You stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the front of the envelope. I colored the image in using my Old Olive and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Flowers For Every Season 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.

WHISPER WHITE CARDSTOCK PRODUCTS- AVAILABLE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

Stampin’ Up! announced this information related to the Whisper White paper products late last evening:

Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.

We know Whisper White has a huge fan base; we’re big fans, too! And we are crushed that it’s going away. Even though this decision was out of our hands, rest assured that we jumped right into action to find the best replacement paper possible. We have dedicated many hours to source and test alternative cardstock options from several suppliers to find the perfect fit that still maintains the Stampin’ Up! quality you know and trust. We are happy to share that we have found a winner for our new cardstock, Basic White!

The quality of our new Basic White was thoroughly tested by our quality assurance and product teams. It also tested very well with demonstrators and concept artists who gave it a huge thumbs up. We believe in the quality of the new Basic White cardstock and we know it will become your new crafting staple!

What does this mean for you?

With Whisper White going out of production, this means a number of Whisper White products will be affected. Below is a list of all products that will be replaced with our new Basic White cardstock. These items are now available while supplies last with an order limit of 2 per item per order.

  • Whisper White 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cardstock (124302)
  • Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes (149710)
  • Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes (131527)

  • Whisper White 8-1/2″ x 11″ Thick Cardstock (140272)
  • Whisper White Medium Envelopes (107301)

Our new Basic White products will become available to purchase as soon as we have them in stock. This means that some Whisper White and Basic White products may be available at the same time. Additionally, due to the nature of sourcing, some Basic White products may not be available before the Whisper White products sell out.

Stampin’ Up! Darling Donkey Sneak Peek

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s weekend going? I have to work again today, but at least I don’t go in until noon.

I have a sneak peek for you today of a Sale-A-Bration item that will be available January 5, 2021. I used the adorable Stampin’ Up! Darling Donkey Cling Stamp Set. Here is my card for today.

My design is from the Fab Friday Challenge #203. Here is their sketch.

I started by adhering a panel of the 2019-2021 In-Color 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Terracotta Tile card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I embossed a panel of Pretty Peacock cardstock using the new Painted Texture 3 D Embossing Folder (available January 5, 2021). On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the donkey image from the Darling Donkey stamp set in Early Espresso Ink. I colored the image in using my Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green, Ivory and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the star image around the donkey in Pretty Peacock Ink and cut the image out using the Stitched Shapes Dies. On a strip of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiments from the Darling Donkey stamp set in Early Espresso Ink.

I adhered the circle to the embossed panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a piece of the Terracotta Tile 1/2″ Scalloped Linen Ribbon to the bottom of the artwork using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Cling Stamp Set in the center of a Whisper White panel in Early Espresso Ink. I stamped the stars on either side of the sentiment in Pretty Peacock Ink. I adhered a strip of the 2019-2021 In-Color DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I stamped another one of the donkey images from the Darling Donkey stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored it in using my Crumb Cake, Ivory and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Pretty Peacock mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Terracotta Tile card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the donkey image from the Darling Donkey stamp set on the envelope front in Early Espresso Ink. I colored the image in using my Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green, Ivory and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of 2019-2021 In-Color DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. The Embossing Folder I used will be available for purchase starting January 5, 2021. The Darling Donkey stamp set will be a free Sale-A-Bration item with a qualifying order of $50. If you would like a copy of the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog, drop me a line at creativestampingdesigns@gamil.com and I will gladly get one in the mail to you. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Tasteful Touches CAS

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Hope your weekend is starting out great. I’m working the whole weekend between my 2 jobs. My husband went to pick out our tree yesterday, he had to go to a couple different places. I can’t believe how many places are sold out of trees already. He unboxed all the ornaments last night and is planning on decorating it today. I can’t touch the tree, I’m allergic to it, lucky me. We do not put up traditional ornaments, our tree is filled with Disney ornaments and others similar toy type ornaments.

For today I have a Clean and Simple card for you where I made my own DSP. I went to the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog and used the Stampin’ Up! Tasteful Touches Cling Stamp Set. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #465. Here is their sketch.

My colors are from Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #354. Here are their colors.

I started by stamping the images from the Tasteful Touches stamp set randomly on a panel of Whisper White cardstock in Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Misty Moonlight. Some are stamped in full strength and some are stamped off once.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink in the center. I stamped the feather image from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink, stamped off 3 times, over the sentiment. I adhered the sentiment to a panel of Misty Moonlight cardstock using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered the card front to a Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a piece of Misty Moonlight 2020-2022 In-Color 1/4″ Ribbon to the top of the sentiment.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the images from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Misty Moonlight Ink around the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I stamped the images from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Misty Moonlight Inks on the envelope front and flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Sometimes we get so focused on the items in the mini catalogs that we forget about all the beautiful sets that are in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. I think this is one of my favorites. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Warm and Toasty Yule CAS

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s weekend going? We had a rainy day yesterday, but today is sunny, cold and windy. I’m looking forward to our quarterly ‘In-Person” team meeting today virtually. I always have so much fun at our meetings getting together with my team members, talking and laughing. Hopefully by the next meeting we will be able to really meet in person again.

Just when I thought I was done with my Christmas cards, my aunt asked to make 7 special cards for her. She said she would rather buy them from me than the store, which I was honored about. I used the Stampin’ Up! Warm & Toasty Cling Stamp Set for today’s.

My design is from Try Stamping On Tuesday Challenge #485. Here is their sketch.

My colors were inspired by The Color Throwdown Challenge #622. Here are their colors.

I also played along with the Paper Players Theme Challenge #520. Here is their theme.

I started by embossing panels of Cherry Cobbler and Real Red cardstock using the Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folder and adhering them to a Crumb Cake card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a panel of ‘Tis The Season 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper in the center of the embossed panels using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the adorable deer from the Warm & Toasty stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the image in using my Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Ivory and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Stitched Nested Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Warm & Toasty stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I cut the end into a banner and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and a Glue Dot on the end overlapping the artwork.

I did not stamp a sentiment on the inside yet. This one is for her Great Grandson and I need to see what she wants. I stamped the deer image from the Warm & Toasty stamp set on the bottom of the Very Vanilla panel and colored it in using my Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Ivory and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cherry Cobbler 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 Medium Very Vanilla Envelope. I stamped the deer image from the Warm & Toasty stamp set on the envelope front and colored it in using my Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Ivory and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the ‘Tis The Season 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!!

The Christmas season is a busy time of year for sending and receiving packages, so naturally shipping may take longer than normal. If you are placing any orders for Christmas gifts, please submit them by December 9th. We cannot guarantee that orders placed by December 9th will arrive in time for Christmas, but orders submitted after this date are unlikely to arrive before Christmas. 

So get your orders in early to ensure delivery for the holidays!
