Stampin’ Up! Phrases & Frames Birthday

Posted on by
6

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! Phrases & Frames Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Phrases & Frames Stamp Set and Waterside Retreat Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Phrases & Frames Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere 3 panels of Waterside Retreat DSP to the front of a Pool Party card base. Adhere a panel of Waterside Retreat DSP to a Gray Granite mat.

Stampin' Up! Phrases & Frames Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the layered panel to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Fussy cut a bike from the Waterside Retreat DSP using Paper Snips. Adhere the bike with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Phrases & Frames Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stampin’ Up! Relaxing Waterside

Posted on by

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend.

I have a masculine card for you today using DSP and a set coming in the new May-Aug 2026 catalog. If you signed up for my paper shares, you’ll be getting a sampling of this DSP real soon. Masculine cards are always a challenge for me, but this DSP made it really easy. 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! Relaxing Waterside 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Relaxing Waterside Stamp Set, Waterside Retreat Designer Series Paper and the Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

My colors are from Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #487

Stampin' Up! Relaxing Waterside 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere a panel of Waterside Retreat DSP to a Pecan Pie card base. Cut a panel of the Waterside Retreat DSP using the 2nd largest square from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

Stampin' Up! Relaxing Waterside 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Cut a panel of Old Olive using the largest square from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Adhere the die cut DSP panel to the Old Olive mat. Adhere the layered pane to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Relaxing Waterside 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the banner die from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the card front. Add a few Earthy Matte Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Relaxing Waterside 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the sea grass image from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to an Old Olive mat then to the inside of the Pecan Pie card base.

Stampin' Up! Relaxing Waterside 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish the card. Stamp the sea grass image from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the envelope front. Adhere a panel of Waterside Retreat DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! The Right Words Triple ‘Z’ Fold Card

Posted on by
6

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week and the 1st week of March!! I hope you all had a great weekend. We had a bit of a tease here in NJ, it was in the 50’s on Saturday but then only the 30’s on Sunday.

I have a triple ‘Z’ fold card for you today. “Z” fold cards are the easiest fun fold, but when you add 2 more folds in, it could be a little tricky. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! the Right Words Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Inspiring Imperfections Bundle, Kintsugi Inspirations Specialty Designer Series Paper, Spotlight on Nature Dies and 2 3/8″ Circle Punch for my card today.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the panels of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP to the coordinating Petal Pink card bases. Do not put any DSP on the center panel of the 2nd card base.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

You can mix up and use however many different patterns of DSP that you would like.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Basic Whtie, using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch, cut the circle. Stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the panel of Basic White. Cut the sentiment out using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies. On the top of the small square of Basic Whtie, stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. Stamp the flower image from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the sentiment, stamping off once on scrap paper. Using the Spotlight on Nature Dies, cut the Gold Foil Paper. From a panel of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP, cut the vases and flower using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the small sentiment square to the center of the 2nd card base panel. Adhere the 2nd card base panel to the large card base, with the 4 1/8″ side to the left, lining up the bottom corners on both sides. Adhere the small 3rd card base to the large card base, with the 5 1/2″ side to the left, lining up the bottom corners on both sides. Adhere the punched circle to the center of the die cut gold foil circle. Adhere the vases and flower to the circle. Adhere the layered circle to the card front. Adhere the die cut sentiment to the card front. Add a few Flower Accents to the card front.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the tall vase image from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the side of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat then to the back of the Petal Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

Finish your card by decorating a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the vase images from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Misty Moonlight and Petal Pink Inks on the envelope front. Adhere a panel of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP to the envelope flap.

Posted on by

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend and the last day of February!! February is always a short month, but it seemed extra short this year, probably because of all the snow we had. I hope you are making some plans. I’ll be at work all day. It’s starting to warm up a little here in NJ. I think we’re supposed to hit 50 today.

Today’s card I played with some old favorites. I figured the annual catalog will be coming to an end in a couple short months and I don’t know if this set will be carrying over.

Stampin’ Up! Paradise Garden Sunflowers

Posted on by
2

Good snowy Wednesday morning stamping friends. Yup, another 2″ of snow to shovel this morning. At this rate, I’m not going to see my lawn and gardens until May. I hope you are having a good week; we’re already halfway through it and this is the last week of February.

For today’s card I did some dry embossing on Vellum. As a lot of you know, I’m not a fan of orange, but I love Timid Tiger. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder along with the Stampin’ Up! Paradise Garden Stamp Set (available March 3), Vellum Specialty Paper and Stampin’ Up! Notes & Totes Stamp Set for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Emboss a panel of Vellum Paper using the Sunflower EF. On the back of the embossed panel, color the sunflower centers using the Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the embossed panel to a panel of Timid Tiger.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Wrap a piece of the Timid Tiger 3/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon around the panel and tie a bow. Adhere the layered panel to a Petal Pink card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.. Go over the front of the embossed panel flower centers with Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from Paradise Garden stamp set in Timid Tiger Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the splatter image from the Notes & Totes stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the sentiment. Punch the sentiment out using the 1 3/4″ Circle Punch. Punch a mat from a panel of Petal Pink using the 1 7/8″ Circle Punch. Adhere the sentiment to the mat. Adhere the layered sentiment to the card front over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from the Notes & Totes stamp set in Timid Tiger Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the splatter image from the Notes & Totes stamp set in Petal Pink by the sentiment. Stamp the small flower image from the Paradise Garden stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Timid Tiger mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! Paradise Garden Sunflower 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the small flower image from the Paradise Garden stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the envelope front 2 times. Adhere a panel of 2025-2027 In-Color DSP to the envelope flap.

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