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! Garden Meadow Easel Calendar

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Are you starting to make plans for the weekend yet? I’ll be working all day tomorrow. I’m hoping to get some time to relax a bit since these past couple weekends were so hectic.

Today’s card I made on YouTube Live 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, just above the supply list, along with the link to my YouTube channel. When I went on our retreat in November, one of my team members Susan Stanley had this card for us to make. I actually have 2 versions that I made in different colors and different patterns of DSP.  I liked it so much I used it for my Stamp Camp Card Class on Tuesday night. The ladies loved it. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Garden Meadow Easel Calendar 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

For both cards I used the Stampin’ Up! Garden Meadow Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Meandering Meadow 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper, Tailor Made Tags Dies and Stampin’ Up! Through The Year Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Garden Meadow Easel Calendar 2 creativestampingdesigns.com
Stampin' Up! Garden Meadow Easel Calendar 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering panels of Meandering Meadow DSP to Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green mats using Liquid Glue. I adhered the Layered panels to Blueberry Bushel and Melon Mambo card bases using Liquid Glue. On panels of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Garden Meadow stamp set in Blueberry Bushel and Melon Mambo Inks. Using the 2nd largest Tailor Made Tags Dies, I cut the sentiment partway through. I moved the die up and fit it in the stitches and cut from the other direction to make a smaller tag. I threaded a piece of Linen Thread through the top of the tag and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the small calendars using Stampin’ Dimemsionals.

Stampin' Up! Garden Meadow Easel Calendar 4 creativestampingdesigns.com
Stampin' Up! Garden Meadow Easel Calendar 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

I folded the smaller panel of Blueberry Bushel and Melon Mambo cardstock in half as a mountain fold. I folded the 2 ends as valley folds. I adhered the folded panel to the inside of the card base with the mountain fold up and Tear & Tape on the valley folds, to the bottom of the card base. I added a few Assorted Glossy Dots to the tag.

Stampin' Up! Garden Meadow Easel Calendar 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the back of the Blueberry Bushel card base, I stamped the sentiment from Through The Year stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. For the Melon Mambo card, I stamped the sentiment from Through The Year stamp set in Melon Mambo Ink on a panel of Basic White. I cut the sentiment out using All That Dies and adhered it to the back of the card base using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Garden Meadow Easel Calendar 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish the card, I decorated Basic White Medium Envelopes. I stamped the floral image from the Garden Meadow stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images using Granny Appl Green, Blueberry Bushel and Melon Mambo Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered panels of Meandering Meadow DSP to the envelope flaps.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my easel card calendar and will give it a try. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under my post. I’d love to see your take it. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my YouTube Channel Here.

If you watch this on my YouTube channel, please remember to subscribe so that you will get notified when a new video goes live. Thank you to those that have subscribed already. Happy Stamping!!

*********************************************************************************************************

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.

I adhered the Perennial Lavender DSP card front to a Pretty Peacock mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to an Orchid Oasis card base using Liquid Glue.

Using my Small Blending Brush, I added some Orchid Oasis Ink to one of the Paper Butterfly Accents. I adhered the butterfly to the card front using a Glue Dot. I added a few Blooming Pearls to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Perennial Lavender Postage 5 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.

More Kits And Kit Updates Coming in 2024!!

If you love the kits as much as I do, you’ll be happy to see changes coming to the Kits Collection in 2024! Here are some changes that you’ll see:

  • Doubling the yearly offering. Starting January 2024, Stampin’ Up! will release two kits per month in a variety of kit types and styles.
  • Discontinuing older kits. As the new kits are introduced, Stampin’ Up! will discontinue older kits.  So pick up any of the older kits that you’d like soon so that you don’t miss out!   
  • Removing printed artwork from kit stamp set acetate sheets. Stamps in kits will no longer have printed stamp set acetate sheets. This means the kit artwork will no longer be printed on the stamp acetate sheets.  This change will apply to both the Kits Collection kits and Paper Pumpkin stamp sets.  As a replacement for the printed stamp acetate sheet currently in each stamping kit, Stampin’ Up! will include a separate paper print piece that displays the stamp artwork and stamp name.  This new piece will be a great resource for identifying and storing kit stamps.
    • For Paper Pumpkin, the acetate sheet change will start with the first kit of 2024.
    • For the Kits Collection, the acetate sheet change will start with the first stamping kit release after June 2024.  This will be a rolling change, so kits released before June 2024 may be replenished with stamps that do not have printed acetate sheets. 

I hope that you’re as excited as I am about the upcoming Kits Collection changes!  Can’t wait to see what they come up with!

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
  • 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.

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

I started by adhering a panel of Bee Mine DSP to a Basic Thick card base using Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Basic White using the largest die from the Darling Details Dies. I adhered the die cut frame to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Grateful 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the center panel of the die cut, I stamped the bird image from the Inspirational Sketches stamp set in Early Espresso Ink. I colored the image using Daffodil Delight, Petal Pink and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Inspirational Sketches stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the top of the panel.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Grateful 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the artwork to the center of the frame on the card front using Liquid Glue. I added a few Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots (available Jan 4) to the artwork.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Grateful 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Inspirational Sketches stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Bee Mine DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Daffodil Delight mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Grateful 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bird image from the Inspirational Sketches stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Daffodil Delight, Petal Pink and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Bee Mine DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Grateful 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card, and this set and DSP are on your wish list for the upcoming catalog starting in January. This is one of my favorites. Happy Stamping!!

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   SMAQYYMJ

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

*********************************************************************************************************

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.

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):

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.

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Forest Comfort

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. Merry Christmas Eves, Eve. Hope you are getting things all wrapped up for the big day. I’ll be at work all day today and tomorrow and I’m sure both days are going to be super busy with all those last minute shoppers.

Today’s card is very similar to one that I made last weekend. I was happy the way the other one came out and I wanted to make one more using a different color ribbon. I also wanted one that could be used for any occasion.  Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Comfort 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin Up! Fragrant Forest Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Comfort 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the image from the Fragrant Forest stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I cut the panel down to 4 3/4″ X 5″ using the Paper Trimmer. I adhered the stamped panel to a Moody Mauve mat using Stampin’ Seal. 

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Comfort 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White mat using Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of Moody Mauve 3/8″ Textured Ribbon around the panel and tied a knot. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic Black card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Comfort 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Hope You Know stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink. I punched the sentiment out using the Double Oval Punch. I punched out the scalloped oval from a panel of Moody Mauve using the Double Oval Punch. I adhered the sentiment to the mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2023-2025 In-Color Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Comfort 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Hope You Know stamp set in Moody Mauve Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Moody Mauve mat then to the inside of the Baic Black card base.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Forest Comfort 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

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