Stampin’ Up So Hoppy Together

Good Thursday morning my fellow stampers.  Well today’s the big day.  The new 2019 Occasions Catalog is live and with every $50 order you get a FREE Sale-A-Bration item.  This is my favorite Stampin’ Up time of year.  I don’t know about you, but I LOVE free items.

  • At the end of the 3 months you will get a gift from me.

If you are interested in joining, please contact me ASAP.  This is a great way to earn some free products and build your Stampin’ Up supplies.

Now on to my card for today.  For today I used some of the new DSP from the Occasions Catalog and a couple of the FREE items you can earn from Sale-A-Bration.  Take a look.

I started with a piece of Grapefruit Grove Gingham Gala 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper.  Using my Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Marker I drew lines between the checks to make it look like plaid.  I adhered a small piece of the DSP to the left side of a Whisper White card front using Snail.  I wrapped a piece of the Grapefruit Grove 1/4″ Organdy Ribbon around the card front on the seem.  I adhered the card front to a Call Me Clover mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  In the upper right corner of the Whisper White panel, I stamped the flies from the So Hoppy Together stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored them in using my Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Marker.

On a small piece of Whisper White cardstock, I stamped the Frog riding the unicycle from Stampin’ Up So Hoppy Together stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Call Me Clover Ink below the wheel.  I colored the frog and unicycle in using my Basic Black, Call Me Clover, Pineapple Punch, Smoky Slate and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Grapefruit Grove Stampin’ Write Marker.  I adhered the artwork to a Call Me Clover mat using Snail and then to a Soft Sea Foam mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered the matted artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card front to a Soft Sea Foam card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added 1 Grapefruit Grove Share What You Love Artisan Pearl next to the sentiment.

On the inside Whisper White panel I stamped the frog from So Hoppy Together stamp set on the bottom portion of the panel and the flies from the same set by the frog.  I colored it in the same as I did for the front of the card.  I adhered a small strip of the Gingham Gala 6 X 6 DSP to the bottom of the panel.  I stamped the sentiment from the Postcard Pals stamp set in Call Me Clover in the center of the panel.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Call Me Clover mat using Snail, then adhered it to the Soft Sea Foam card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card, I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the frog from the So Happy Together stamp set on both sides of the envelope front and colored them in the same as I did on the card.  I adhered a piece of the Gingham Gala 6 X 6 DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  This was really a fun card to make and I hope you will give it a try.  Happy Stamping.

Stampin’ Up Time For Tea for Fab Friday #153

Good Wednesday morning my fellow stampers.  Did you all have a nice Christmas?  Was Santa good to you?  Did anyone get some fun new stamping products?  Hope you all had an enjoyable day with your loved ones.

For today’s card I have a little sneak peek for you.  I played along with the Fab Friday sketch challenge #153.  Please be sure to stop by Fab Friday to play along and see what everyone has made.  Here is their sketch.

Here is what I came up with for the sketch.  Take a look.

I started with a Crumb Cake card base and using Snail I adhered a panel of the beautiful All My Love Designer Series Paper, which will be available January 3, 2019.  I adhered a smaller strip of the same DSP about 2/3 of the way down the card front.

On a small piece of Whisper White cardstock, I stamped the teacup image from the Stampin’ Up Time For Tea Photopolymer Stamp Set in Lovely Lipstick Ink.  Using my Lovely Lipstick Stampin’ Write Marker I colored part of the sentiment in and stamped it above and below the teacup.  I colored the teacup in using my Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends Markers.  Using my Big Shot and my Stitched Shaped Framelits Dies, I cut out the teacup with my second largest stitched circle.  I adhered the artwork to a Pearlized Doilie using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Big Shot, I cut a circle out from Balmy Blue cardstock using my Layering Circles Framelits Dies.  I adhered the Balmy Blue circle just under the Doilie.  I adhered the layered artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside on a Whisper White panel I stamped the bottom section of the sentiment from the Time For Tea stamp set in Lovely Lipstick Ink.  I stamped the teacup in Flirty Flamingo Ink, stamping off twice, on top of the sentiment.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Balmy Blue mat using Snail then adhered it to the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card, I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the teacup from the Time For Tea stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink on the front of the envelope.  I adhered a piece of the All My Love DSP on the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and will give it a try.  Only 8 days till you can order from the new 2019 Occasions Catalog and earn FREE products from the Sale-A-Bration catalog.  Happy Stamping.

Stampin’ Up Beauty Abounds Sneak Peak

Good Tuesday morning everyone.  Hope your week is starting off great.

I’ve got a sneak peak for you today from the up coming 2019 Occasions Catalog.  I’ve used the Stampin’ Up Beauty Abound Bundle for my card. Take a look.

I started with a Granny Apple Green card front and ran it through my Big Shot using the Layering Leaves Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  Again using my Big Shot, I cut the Butterflies from the upcoming Butterfly Beauty Thinlits Dies, available January 3, 2019, from Basic Black cardstock.  I adhered the butterflies to the embossed panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a small piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the Hello from the Beauty Abounds stamp set in Highland Heather Ink.  I bannered the sentiment and adhered it to the right side of the butterflies using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered the card front to a Basic Black mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I then adhered it to a Highland Heather card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I added some Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the butterfly.

On the inside I stamped the splatter image from the Beauty Abounds stamp set multiple times in the center of a Whisper White panel in Highland Heather Ink, stamping off once each time.  I then stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink over the splatter image.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Basic Black mat using Snail.  I adhered it to the Highland Heather card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the flower image from the Beauty Abounds stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink on the front left of the envelope.  I stamped the butterfly image from the same set in Highland Heather Ink by the flowers and on the back envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked the sneak peak.  This bundle will be available January 3, 2019.  Purchasing this bundle will also allow you to pick a free product from the Sale-A-Bration catalog which starts on January 3, 2019 and runs until March 31, 2019.  Who doesn’t like free products???  I’ll be posting more sneak peaks of the products coming in the new Occasions Catalog in the next few weeks.  Happy Stamping!
