Good Wednesday morning my fellow stampers. Happy 1st Day Of Spring!!!
There are less than 2 weeks left for Sale-A-Bration, yikes! If there are still items you wanted to get, don’t wait. Things are selling out. They’ve added a 3rd release, you can see it below.
For today’s card I have a real quick and easy card for you. Take a look.
I started by cutting the rectangles. I used the 3 middle Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies along with my Big Shot and cut the largest in Lovely Lipstick cardstock, the middle one in Flirty Flamingo cardstock and the smallest one in All My Love Designer Series Paper. Once I cut them out I layered them inside one another.
As you can see, this is a very flat card since they are inside and not layered on top of one another. I adhered the rectangles to a Whisper White card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I just love how the stitching looks on all the rectangles.
On a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Meant To Be Stamp Set in Versamark Ink and immediately sprinkled it with my Lovely Lipstick Embossing Powder. I heat set it using my Heat Tool then cut the circle out using my Big Shot and the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies. I also cut a scalloped circle from the Layering Circles Framelits Dies and adhered the stitched circle to it using Snail. I adhered the circle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and adhered a small Flirty Flamingo bow made from the All My Love Ribbon Combo Pack. I adhered the card front to a Thick Whisper White card base.
On the inside I stamped the single flower from Stampin’ Up Forever Lovely Stamp Set in Flirty Flamingo Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Lovely Lipstick Ink in the center. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the flower from the Forever Lovely stamp set on the envelope front. I adhered a piece of All My Love DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my quick and easy card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

I also joined in with the 
I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock and stamped the succulent flower image from the Painted Seasons stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink randomly around the paper. I stamped the star clusters from the same stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink around filling in empty spaces. I adhered the artwork panel to a Blushing Bride mat using Snail. I adhered the matted artwork to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up By The Bay Stamp Set, FREE Sale-A-Bration item with a $50.00 order, in Cherry Cobbler Ink on the bottom right of the card front. I added 3 Rhinestone Basic Jewels that I had colored in with my Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend Marker, to the top corner of the card front.
On the inside I stamped the succulent flower image from the Painted Seasons stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink on the two corners of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the star clusters from the same stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink by the flowers. I stamped the sentiment from the By The Bay stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink in the center of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I joined in with the 
I started with a Smoky Slate card front and ran it through my Big Shot using the Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
Using the soon to be available from the Sale-A-Bration Coordination collection, Story Label Punch (available March 1st), I punched a label out in Melon Mambo cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Part Of My Story Stamp Set (Free Sale-A-Bration item) in Versamark Ink on a strip of Whisper White cardstock. I sprinkled it immediately with my Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool. I adhered the sentiment to the label and trimmed the ends to the label. I added a Heart Epoxy Droplet, which I colored with my Dark Lovely Lipstick Stampin’ Blend Marker (that was the closest to Melon Mambo I could get). I adhered the label to the right of my artwork with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On the inside I stamped the flower from the Painted Seasons stamp set in Melon Mambo Ink on the two corners of a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I added a couple of the star clusters from the same stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by the flowers. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Itty Bitty Birthdays Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Melon Mambo mat using Snail and adhered it to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I am really loving my Stamparatus. I used it for this card and envelope and was able to line everything up perfectly. I started with a Whisper White card front and stamped the floral image from Forever Lovely stamp set. I first stamped the leaf image in Soft Sea Foam Ink. I then stamped the floral image, lining it up using my Stamparatus, in Petal Pink Ink.
I wrapped a piece of the gorgeous new Petal Pink/Whisper White Variegated Ribbon around the card front and tied a bow. This ribbon is so wonderful to work with and makes bows so easy. I added a Glue Dot under the bow to hold it in place. I added a few clear Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front by the flowers.
I stamped the sentiment from the Meant To Be stamp set in Petal Pink on a small piece of Whisper White cardstock and punched it out with the Pretty Label Punch. I adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Whisper White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
It is extremely hard to see, but I stamped the leaves and floral design, from the Forever Lovely stamp set, the same way I did on the card front, stamping off once, on the inside Whisper White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Forever Lovely stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the floral image. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Whisper White card base using Snail.
The other challenge I joined in with is Colour and Sketches #305. Stop by to see what everyone has made at 
I’ve made a very clean and simple card today for the 2 challenges. I don’t usually do simple, but every once in a while I like to add one in. Take a look.
I started by cutting 2 mats in Balmy Blue cardstock. On the larger mat I adhered a piece of Subtles 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper in Balmy Blue using Snail. I adhered the matted DSP to a Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Colorful Seasons stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink. I adhered the stamped panel to the smaller Balmy Blue mat using Snail. I then adhered it to the Night of Navy card base, using Stampin’ Dimensionals, over lapping the matted DSP panel.
On the inside I stamped the larger snowflake from the Colorful Seasons stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink, stamping off once, across a Whisper White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Night of Navy Ink over the snowflakes. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
The next one I played along with is Global Design Project Color Challenge #173. Be sure to stop by 
Here is what I came up with for the 2 challenges Take a look
I started with a Petal Pink card front and using my Big Shot I embossed it with my Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I then cut out the largest flourish from the Flourish Thinlits Dies in Soft Sea Foam cardstock 2 times. I adhered the one flourish on top of the second to make it a little thicker. I sponged the die cut with my Soft Sea Foam Ink then adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added some Wink Of Stella to the flowers on the die cut.
On a small strip of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Accented Blooms stamp set in So Saffron Ink. I cut the strip into a banner using my Triple Banner Punch and sponged the edges with the So Saffron Ink. I adhered the banner to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added a few So Saffron Share What You Love Artisan Pearls to the card front and the banner. I adhered the card front to a Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
Here is the CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge # 303.
Here is what I came up with for the 2 challenges. Take a look.
On a piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped 2 of the plant images from the Stampin’ Up Seasoned With Kindness Host Exclusive stamp set. I first stamped the outlines in Tranquil Tide Ink. I then stamped the inside of the leaves in Lemon Lime Twist Ink and the inside of the flower in Highland Heather Ink. I stamped the inside of the flower-pot in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I did all the stamping using my Stamparatus. It made lining everything up very easy. Using my Big Shot I cut the artwork out using the circle from the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies.
I adhered the circle to a small piece of Mint Macaron cardstock using Snail. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Easter Beauty stamp set in Tranquil Tide Ink around the bottom of the circle. I stamped another plant image from the Seasoned With Kindness stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink along the bottom of the Mint Macaron panel. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then took a piece of Whisper White Bakers Twine and colored it using my Pear Pizzazz Ink. I tied a small bow and attached it to the flower pot using a Glue Dot.
On the inside I stamped the plant images from the Seasoned With Kindness stamp set along the bottom of a Whisper White panel the same way I stamped them on the card front. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Tranquil Tide Ink in the center of the panel and adhered it to a Highland Heather mat using Snail. I then adhered it to the Tranquil Tide card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
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.
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.
