Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. Did you do anything fun this weekend? I hope all the mothers out there had an extra special day yesterday.

Today’s card I played with some Online Exclusive products along with some new DSP. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Fluffiest Friends Cling Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive So Sincere Cling Stamp Set along with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder, To Market Designer Series Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

My colors for today are from the Color Throwdown Countdown Challenge #792

My design is from Try a Sketch on Tuesday Challenge #646

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of To Market DSP to a Boho Blue card base using Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Basic Beige in half on a diagonal using the Paper Trimmer. I embossed the triangles using the Eyelet EF. I cut the panel of Boho Blue in half on a diagonal using the Paper Trimmer. I adhered the Basic Beige triangles to the Boho Blue triangles using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the 2 layered triangles to the card front using Liquid Gue. On a panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the cat image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I cut the image out using the 3rd largest square from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I colored the image using Boho Blue, Pecan Pie and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the image to a Boho Blue mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set in Boho Blue Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the 2nd smallest circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a 2023-2025 In-Color Opaque Sparkle Dot to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set in Boho Blue Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. I stamped the flower image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink along the bottom of the panel. I colored the flowers using Boho Blue and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Beige panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Boho Blue card base.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope, I stamped the cat and flower images from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of To Market DSP to the envelope flap.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Hearts & Hugs CAS

Good Sunday morning stamping friends and Happy Mother’s Day!!! I hope you are all enjoying your weekend and have some plans for today. My plan is to spend some time in my craft studio doing with I love to do. Usually on Mother’s Day I’m outside planting flowers of plants, but it’s going to be a very rainy day and crafting seemed like a better idea.

I have a quick card for you today playing with a new bundle and a new In-Color. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' UP! Hearts & Hugs CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Hearts & Hugs Bundle along with the 2024-2026 In-Color 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' UP! Hearts & Hugs CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of 2024-2026 In-Color DSP to a Summer Splash card base using Liquid Glue. Using the Hearts & Hugs Dies, I cut the hearts from a panel of Petal Pink. I adhered the Petal Pink panel to a Calypso Coral mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' UP! Hearts & Hugs CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the hamster image from the Stampin’ Up! Hearts & Hugs Cling Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink. I colored the image using Crumb Cake and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the Hearts & Hugs Dies.

Stampin' UP! Hearts & Hugs CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Hearts & Hugs stamp set in Summer Splash Ink on a panel of Basic White. I cut the image out using the Hearts & Hugs Dies. I adhered the hamster image to the Petal Pink panel below the die cut hearts, using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment banner across the hamster using Stampin’ Dimensionals on the ends and a Glue Dot in the center. I added some of the die cut hearts to the banner using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' UP! Hearts & Hugs CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Hearts & Hugs stamp set in Summer Splash Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered some of the die cut hearts on either side of the sentiment using Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Calypso Coral mat then to the inside of the Summer Splash card base.

Stampin' UP! Hearts & Hugs CAS 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the heart image from the Hearts & Hugs stamp set in Calyp0so Coral Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of 2024-2026 In-Color DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Citrus Blooms for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends and welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop.

This week we have Sketch Challenge. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s sketch.

Stampin' Up! Citrus Blooms Hello 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Citrus Blooms Cling Stamp Set along with the Stylish Shapes Dies and Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our sketch for this week.

Stampin' Up! Citrus Blooms Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Mediterranean Blooms DSP to a Basic Whtie Thick card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Citrus Blooms Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the single orange image from the Citrus Blooms stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lolly and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the largest circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I cut a panel of Garden Green using the largest banner die from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

Stampin' Up! Citrus Blooms Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut the banner in half using Paper Snips. On the top of the banner, I stamped the sentiment from the Citrus Blooms stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I adhered the 2 banner pieces to the card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered the artwork to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimemsionals. I added a few Opal Rounds Assortment.

Stampin' Up! Citrus Blooms Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Citrus Blooms stamp set in Garden Green Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the flower images from the Citrus Blooms stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on either side of the sentiment. I colored the images using Daffodil Delight and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a strip of the Mediterranean Blooms DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Lemon Lolly mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Citrus Blooms Hello 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the single orange image from the Citrus Blooms stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Mediterranean Blooms DSP to the envelope flap.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Filled With Fun Hello

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some plans in the works. I’ll be at work again all day today. I finally have tomorrow off, so I’m hoping to play catch up.

Today’s card features an Online Exclusive set along with a new set from the upcoming Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Filled with Fun Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the new Stampin’ Up! Simply Said Photopolymer Stamp Set and Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Distressed Tile EF. I adhered the embossed panel to an Azure Afternoon card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a pane of Azure Afternoon to the card front using Liquid Glue. I then adhered a panel of Balmy Blue to the card front using Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the flower image from the Filled with Fun stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Said stamp set in Azure Afternoon above the flower image. I colored the image using Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst, Balmy Bue, Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the artwork to an Azure Afternoon mat using Stampin’ Seal. I wrapped a piece of Azure Afternoon 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon from the 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack (retiring April 30th), around the layered panel and tied a bow. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Filled with Fun stamp set in Azure Afternoon Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the flower image from the Filled with Fun stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the image using Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst, Balmy Blue, Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Balmy Blue mat then to the inside of the Azure Afternoon card base.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Filled with Fun stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image the same as I did for the card. I embossed the envelope flap using the Distressed Tile Embossing Folder.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun Hello 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

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

Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Are you ready for the weekend? I sure am. It has taken me all week to get back to my ‘normal’ routine. I think the plane flight last week really threw me off. I have been suffering with migraines all week.

Today’s card I made on YouTube Live on Wednesday and it’s a sneak peek of some new product coming in the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. 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. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! country Birdhouse Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the brand new Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Bundle along with the Country Wood Designer Series Paper and Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder for my card today. These products will be available to purchase starting on May 1st. If you’d like to get your hands on them early, you can join as a demonstrator and put them in your starter kit starting on April 2nd. I also used the Designer Tags Dies, Deckled Circles Dies and Deckled Rectangle Dies.

Stampin' Up! country Birdhouse Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting all the parts out for the birdhouse using the Country Birdhouse Dies and Country Wood DSP, Basic Beigh, Misty Moonlight and Poo Party cardstock.

Stampin' Up! country Birdhouse Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I embossed 2 Misty Moonlight card front panels using the new Eyelet EF. I adhered the embossed panels to a Misty Moonlight card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! country Birdhouse Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I put the pieces of the birdhouse together using Liquid Glue. I adhered a panel of Country Wood DSP to a Basic Beige mat that I cut using the 3rd largest Deckled Rectangle Dies. I adhered the birdhouse to the layered panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front panel to the left side of the card base using Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the bird image from the Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Photopolymer Stamp Set in Gray Granite Ink. I stamped the flower image from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Gray Granite Ink 5 times. I colored the images using Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, Gray Granite, Peach Pie and Summer Splash Stampin’ Blends Markers. On the panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Gray Granite Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Designer Tags Dies. I tied a bow using Linen Thread to the tag. I adhered the sentiment to the bottom of the card front using Stampin Dimensionals. I added a Basic Gray & Smoky Slate Pearl (available May 1) to the sentiment flower center.

Stampin' Up! country Birdhouse Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Gray Granite Ink. I stamped the bird and flower images from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Gray granite Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the images using Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, Gray Granite, Peach Pie and Summer Splash Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whit panel to a Basic Beige mat then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

Stampin' Up! country Birdhouse Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish mu card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the bird and flower images from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on the envelope front and colored the images the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Country Wood DSP to the envelope flap.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Happy Hedgehogs Go To Greetings for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? Less than 24 hours before I leave for out OnStage convention in Houston TX. To say I’m excited doesn’t even begin to describe what I’m feeling. I can’t wait to share what I can with you.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We are doing month-long challenges now, so you have all month to enter multiple times.  The inspiration photo #205 is Spring Has Sprung. Believe it or not, my card only uses Stamps, Ink and Paper, no dies or punches. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Happy Hedgehogs Spring 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Happy Hedgehogs Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set and Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper for my card today. I was inspired by the entire photo and colors for my Clean & Layered card today. 

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 205.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Happy Hedgehogs Spring 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering squares of Delightfully Eclectic DSP to a Garden Green card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Bubble Bath card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Happy Hedgehogs Spring 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic white, I stamped the tree image from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Gray Granite Ink. I stamped the bird image from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on the branch. I colored the image using Balmy Blue, Berry Burst, Bubble Bath, Crumb Cake, Old Olive and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the artwork panel to a Bubble Bath mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Happy Hedgehogs Spring 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment form the Go To Greetings stamp set in Gray Granite Ink. I adhered the sentiment to a Bubble Bath mat using Glue Dots. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Happy Hedgehogs Spring 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the tree and bird images from the Happy Hedgehog stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on the panel. I colored the images using Balmy Blue, Berry Burst, Bubble Bath, Crumb Cake, Old Olive and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Garden Green mat then to the inside of the Bubble Bath card base.

Stampin' Up! Happy Hedgehogs Spring 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Berry Burst, Bubble Bath, Crumb Cake and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Delightfully Eclectic DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves CAS Zinnias

Good Monday morning stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? We had our quarterly in person team meeting yesterday. We got to stamp together and chat a bit. Quite a few of us are getting really excited for our OnStage convention coming up this weekend. We leave Thursday morning bright and early for Houston. I can’t wait to see the new catalog and the new 2024-2026 In-Colors.

Today’s card is a super quick and easy one that we made yesterday at our meeting. This card was designed and presented by Monica Hollis. All the card we made yesterday used Online Exclusive products so over the next week I’ll be sharing the cards we made. Here’s My card for today.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS Zinnias 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Simply Zinnia Cling Stamp Set and Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS Zinnias 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Flowering Zinnias DSP to a Pumpkin Pie card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS Zinnias 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered another panel of Flowering Zinnias DSP to a Daffodil Delight mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS Zinnias 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the All That Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves CAS Zinnias 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the single zinnia image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Pumpkin Pie Ink on the bottom of the panel and the leaf image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Pumpkin Pie card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the single zinnia image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Pumpkin Pie Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the leaf image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink by the zinnia. I adhered a panel of Flowering Zinnias DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood In Pink

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. Well, the month is just about over and so is Sale-a-bration. I hope you’ve gotten all the free goodies that you were wanting. We actually had spring like weather here in NJ yesterday and we’re expecting the same today with rain. I’m done with the cold, I’m ready for the warm weather to get here so I can start fixing my gardens up. How about you?

Today’s card is the last one that I made using Sale-a-bration product. I also used some new Online Exclusive products that will be available starting on March 5th. If you like pink, then this card is definitely for you. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made today’s card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Hreee’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood in Pink 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Magnolia Mood Bundle that will be available starting March 5th for my card today along with the Sale-a-bration Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper that will be going away tomorrow.

Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood in Pink 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting the detailed magnolia using the Magnolia Mood Dies from a panel of Basic White. I adhered the die cut to a Flight & Airy DSP card front using dots of Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood in Pink 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the large magnolia image from the Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood Cling Stamp Set in Gray Granite Ink. I colored the image using Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the Magnolia Mood Dies.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Heartfelt Hellos CAS

Good Monday morning stamping friends and Happy Presidents Day!! Is anyone lucky enough to have today off? I have to work today, but there’s no mail so I may get out a little early, but it all depends how the weekend went. How was everyone’s weekend? I had all these intentions of getting so much done in my craft room. That did not happen.

We’re down to our final 10 days of Sale-a-bration so I thought I’d make a card using some of the free products you can earn. 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! Heartfelt Hellos CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Heartfelt Hellos Cling Stamp Set and Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper along with the Hexagon Punch for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #623.

I also joined in with TGIF Product Challenge #440.

Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hellos CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Flight & Airy DSP to a panel of Bubble Bath using Liquid Glue. I adhered another panel of Flight & Airy DSP to the bottom of the panel on an angle using Liquid Glue. I trimmed off the excess using the Paper Trimmer.

Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hellos CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a strip of Garden Green along the seem of the DSP’s using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Bubble Bath card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hellos CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Flight & Airy DSP using the Hexagon Punch. I stamped the sentiment from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Sale-a-bration Opaque Faceted Gems to the card front.
