Stampin’ Up! Eden’s Garden Paneled Hello

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to a New Year!!! How does everyone celebrate bringing in the New Year? It’ll be a quiet one at my house again I believe.

Today’s card features the gorgeous Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper that will be going away on Monday January 3,2022, that’s in just 5 more days. You might want to grab a pack or 2 (or 3) if you haven’t gotten yours yet. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Eden’s Garden Cling Stamp Set along with the Ever Eden DSP for my card today.

I started by cutting and adhering 3 equal strips of the Ever Eden DSP and adhering them to an Evening Evergreen card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, so I had a little wiggle room. I adhered the panel to a gold mat from the Brushed Metallic Paper.

I wrapped a piece of Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon around the layered panel and tied a small bow. I adhered the layered panel to an Evening Evergreen card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the floral image from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink over the floral image. I cut the image our using my Layering Circle Dies and adhered it over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Garden Gems, which will also be going away January 3, 2022, to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the floral image from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on top of the floral image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Succulent mat and then to the inside of the Evening Evergreen card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Ever Eden 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! Special Moment CAS Sneak Peek

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Was everyone able to visit with family and friends for Christmas. I worked yesterday and it was like watching paint dry. It always amazes me with retail how it’s busy, busy, busy then it just dies.

I have a clean and simple card today using all Sale-a-bration items. Do you know that Sale-a-bration starts in just 8 days? I’m so excited!!! I can’t wait to get my hands on more of the free items. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper for my card today. Both of these items are free with a qualifying order during Sale-a-bration

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Evening Evergreen cardstock. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I punched the sentiment out using my Label Me Fancy Punch and punched the slits on either side of the punched sentiment.

I threaded a piece of the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Chevron Ribbon through the punch and wrapped it around a panel of Daffodil Afternoon DSP adhering it on the back using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the panel to a Flirty Flaming card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added some Garden Gems (only available for 1 more week) to the sentiment and the flower centers.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I adhered a strip of the Daffodil Daydream DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Evening Evergreen mat and then to the inside of the Flirty Flamingo card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the daffodil image from the Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the throat of the flower using my Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to the envelope flap. I realized after I adhered it, that I used the wrong DSP oops.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my CAS card. Items will be available with a qualifying order starting on January 4, 2022. Get those shopping lists ready! Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Awesome Otter for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends Merry Christmas Eve and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Will you be spending time with friends or family tomorrow? We’ll be spending the day relaxing just my husband, daughter and me. My son and his girlfriend will be going to her family’s house. My niece and her family will be going to her husband’s family like they always do. So, our plan is to relax, watch Christmas movies, maybe stamp a little and just enjoy the day.

Today I have my simple go to fun fold card, another Z fold using some new product coming in the January-February Sale-a-bration catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Awesome Otter Cling Stamp Set along with the Simply Marbleous Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by scoring and folding a Misty Moonlight card base at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″. I folded the card base in half first and then folded the front back along the 2 3/4″ score line.

I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous DSP to a Balmy Blue mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the otter image from the Awesome Otter stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Balmy Blue, Calypso Coral and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image our using my Layering Diorama Dies. I cut the next size larger Layering Diorama Die from a panel of Balmy Blue cardstock and adhered the artwork to it using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals only on the left half of the panel. I added a few of the new Pebbles Enamel Shapes on the bottom of the artwork.

On the inside I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous DSP to a Balmy Blue mat and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base. I stamped the sentiment from the Awesome Otter stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped another otter image from the Awesome Otter stamp set on the bottom of the panel and colored it in using my Balmy Blue and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Balmy Blue mat and then to the inside left of the card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the otter image from the Awesome Otter stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it using my Balmy Blue and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. The items I used for my card today will be available starting January 4, 2022. Both the DSP and the stamp set are free with qualifying orders. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends, Merry Christmas Eve, Eve! Is everyone just about ready for the big day? I’m not. I have to work all day today and I don’t have 1 gift wrapped. I still have to pick up a gift or 2, which may end up having to wait. The lines in the store were crazy the other day. Now if it’s something I can buy at the dog bakery or the hardware store, then I will get it.

Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are hopping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Sketch Challenge. I can’t wait to see what everyone has created this week. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s awesome projects. Here is my card using this weeks Sketch.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream Cling Stamp Set along with Sale-a-bration items, the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set and Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Here is our sketch for this week.

I started by cutting the center of a panel of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP using the 3rd largest Stitched Rectangle Die.

I adhered the larger piece of the DSP to a Pale Papaya card base. I took the center piece that I cut out and flipped it over and adhered it to the center of the adhered piece on the card base. Can we just take a moment to look at this gorgeous DSP!!!

On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the daffodil image from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink, stamping off 3 times on a piece of scrap paper. I colored just the throat of the daffodil using my Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends Markers. I went over what I colored using the Color Lifter Stampin’ Blend Marker so there was just a very light color. I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink over the stamped image. I cut the image our using the 4th largest Layering Circle Dies. I adhered a piece of the Pale Papaya 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon to the card front and adhered the circle over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the daffodil image from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink, stamping off 3 times on scrap paper, and colored it the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Basic Black mat and then to the inside of the Pale Papaya card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the daffodil image from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it using my Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today. Items used for my card today will be available starting January 4, 2022, from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog and the Sale-a-bration catalog. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through all our projects today. If you click on the Next Blog button, you’ll go to Tara’s page.

Stampin’ Up! Back On Your Feet CAS

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and only 3 days till Christmas. I haven’t wrapped a thing, let alone shopped. My husband has done a lot of the shopping for us this year, I’m just not feeling up to it.

I have a quick fun card today using product from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. Every once in a while, I like to pull things out I haven’t played with in a bit. Here’s my card today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Back on Your Feet Cling Stamp Set along with the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from Sunday Stamps Sketch Challenge #272.

My colors are from Inspire. Create. Color Challenge #106.

I started by embossing a Very Vanilla card front using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and adhering it to a Very Vanilla card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of In Good Taste DSP I stamped the sentiment from the Back on Your Feet stamp set in Versamark Ink on the bottom. I immediately sprinkled it with my white embossing powder from the Embossing Powder Basics and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the panel to a Cinnamon Cider mat using Stampin’ Seal. I colored a piece of White Bakers Twine using my Cinnamon Cider Stampin’ Blends Marker. Once it was dry, I wrapped it around the layered panel and tied a small bow. I adhered the panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a small panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sloth image from the Back on Your Feet stamp set in Early Espresso Ink. I colored the image in using my Cinnamon Cider and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the image using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots. I added a couple Cinnamon Cider 2020-2022 In-Color Square Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Back on Your Feet stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the turtle image from the Back on Your Feet stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cinnamon Cider mat and then to the inside of the Very Vanilla card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the sloth image from the Back on Your Feet stamp set in Early Espresso Ink and colored it using my Cinnamon Cider and Crumb Cake 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! Happiest of Birthdays CAS

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? Well, I finished my baking yesterday. There was another little hiccup in my day, but I got it done. I ended up having to go into work for a few hours, one of my cashiers was sick and I couldn’t get ahold of anyone else to go in 😦 So instead of finishing up all my baking by 4pm, I didn’t finish up until around 9pm. It’s all done, now just a few finishing touches and decorating, putting together all the trays I give out and I’m done for this year.

I have a super simple clean and simple card for you today using some product from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Happiest of Birthdays Cling Stamp Set along with the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the Pattern Party DSP to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Poppy Parade card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set in Tuxedo Black ink. I adhered the panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a few of the Basic Black Classic Matte Dots to the sentiment.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Pattern Party DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat and then to the inside of the Poppy Parade card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Pattern Party DSP 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! Ranunculus Romance Sneak Peek for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Do you have plans for the weekend yet? I spent all day yesterday mixing cookie batters and baking off my bar cookies. Today and tomorrow, I’ll be baking all day. I got a lot more done than I expected to.

Today I have my simple go to fun fold card, a Z fold. For me this is one of the easiest fun folds that you can make. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Cling Stamp Set along with the Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering panels of the Expressions In Ink DSP to Just Jade mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to a Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink next to the rose image and cut the image out using my Scalloped Contours Dies.

I adhered the artwork to the front folded panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals, only on the left side of the artwork. I tied a small knot using the Just Jade & Gold 3/8″ Braided Ribbon and adhered it to the flower stem using a Glue Dot. I added a few Garden Gems to the artwork.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the small, metered image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink, stamped off twice on scrap paper, by the sentiment. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Just Jade mat and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Expressions in Ink DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will consider purchasing this gorgeous set when it becomes available January 4, 2022. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Birthday CAS Sneak Peek

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? How is everyone doing with their holiday shopping, card mailing and decorating? My cards are all made, I just haven’t had the energy to write them out yet. Most of my house is decorated, but not how I normally do it. Shopping, well that’s another whole story lol.

Today’s card is another sneak peek for you using a set that we got to purchase before our OnStage event in November. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Cling Stamp Set along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper and the Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #449.

I started by stamping the small floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Heart & Home DSP. I colored the image in using my Cherry Cobbler, Mint Macaron and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the artwork to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the layered panel to a Subtle DSP card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of the White Bakers Twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack around the top of the panel and tied a bow. I adhered the card front to a So Saffron card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the strip into a banner using my Banners Pick A Punch and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Subtle DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a So Saffron mat and then to the inside of the So Saffron card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the flower in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of the Subtle DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card. These items will be available for purchase starting January 4, 2022 from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Honeybee Home CAS Sneak Peek

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans. I’ll be taking it really easy at work today. Being sick these past 3 weeks has really taken a toll on me and I don’t seem to be bouncing back like I normally do.

Today I have a sneak peek for you today with products from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Honeybee Home Cling Stamp Set along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from Global Design Project #321.

I started by adhering a panel of Heart & Home DSP to a Mint Macaron card front. I wrapped a piece of White 3/4″ Frayed Ribbon around the panel and adhered it on the back.

I stamped the sentiment from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel. I stamped the 2 bee images from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the Mint Macaron panel. I adhered the card front to a Garden Green card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White panel, I stamped the foxglove floral image from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink twice. I stamped the bee image from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink by the flowers. I colored the image in using my Cherry Cobbler and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the artwork to a Garden Green mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the bee images from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on either side of the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mint Macaron mat and then to the inside of the Garden Green card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Heart & Home DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap. I stamped the 2 bee images from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like my sneak peek. All items I used today will be available starting on January 4 from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. Happy Stamping!!
