Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Tara’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “For the Boys/Men”. We can interpret this however we want. Here’s my card for today.
I couldn’t wait to use the new Stampin’ Up! Fun On Wheels Bundle along with the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder for my card today. This one will be for my husband. He likes taking his bike and riding all around town with it.
I started by embossing a Boho Blue card front using the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Boho Blue card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On the 3 panels of Basic White, I stamped the road map image from the Stampin’ Up! Fun On Wheels Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the 3 stamped panels to 3 Pecan Pie mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered 2 of the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the 3rd layered panel in the center using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut the bike die cut from a panel of Real Red using the Fun On Wheels Dies. I cut the wheel die cuts and seat from a panel of Basic Black using the Fun On Wheels Dies. I adhered the pieces together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the bike to the center panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Fun On Wheels stamp set in Boho Blue Ink. I adhered a strip of Pecan Pie behind the sentiment using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Opaque Ovals to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Fun on Wheels stamp set in Boho Blue Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the bicycle image from the Fun On Wheels stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Boho Blue card base.
To complete my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the bike image from the Fun On Wheels stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I embossed a panel of Boho Blue cardstock using the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the envelope flap.

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions.
MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS: BR9XGSTC
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 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the January-April 2023 Mini 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.
Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards!
Happy Stamping, Karen

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:
- 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….
- 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.
