Stampin’ Up! Phrases & Frames Birthday

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. I hope you are having a good week so far. Have you gotten those orders placed? I was up at 2am yesterday placing my order. I wanted to make sure I got everything I wanted and needed.

Today I have a quick card featuring Designer Series Paper. I love Stampin’ Up! DSP and especially when you can make your whole card with it. The panel I used reminds me of a corner store called Heidi’s that was by my grandparents’ house growing up. It had a Hershey Ice Cream sign outside just like the one on this panel. My cousin and I would ride a bike over to get some of the Hershey’s Ice Cream that was so yummy. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin’ Up! Fern & Flora Thanks

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. My niece, daughter and I had a lot of fun last night at the fund raiser. I always enjoy going out and spending time with my niece and daughter.

I have another sneak peek for you today or a card we made at OnStage. I actually finished mine at home since they didn’t give us enough time to finish them there. I can’t wait to get this new DSP, I think it’s my favorite. Here’s my card for today.

I used the New Stampin’ Up! Fern & Flora Bundle along with the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper for my card today. Both products will be available May 5th. At OnStage, they had all the pieces die cut for us. All we had to do was stamp on the die cut pieces.

Using the Blender Pens, add Golden Glow Ink to the flowers and Peaceful Pine Ink to the leaves. At one of the stations during our Product Experience at OnStage, we used the Brayer with Golden Glow Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the butterfly image from the Fern & Flora stamp set on the panel and cut it out using the Fern & Flora Dies.
