Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Symphony for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
2

Good Friday morning stamping friends, welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. HAPPY SPRING! My Crocuses are blooming, my Daffodils are starting to pop up, and I’ve even seen the start of my tulips. Now if the temps here would get a little warmer it would feel like spring too. I have so much yard clean-up to do, but it’s just too cold to go out and do it, plus the ground is still a frozen.

I have a quick masculine card for you today. I always struggle with those cards. There are a couple bundles coming in the new catalog that might just make them a little easier to make. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Symphony Masculine 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Symphony Bundle along with the Nature Walk Designer Series Paper and Stampin’ Up! Framed All Around Stamp Set for my card today.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Symphony CAS

Posted on by

Good Snowy Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. We are under blizzard warning conditions here in NJ. So far, we have 15″ and it’s supposed to continue until 6pm tonight. No work today since only plows and emergency vehicles are allowed out. I let my pups out this morning, and they were buried, both of them are only about 20″ when standing on all 4’s. I saw that this is the 1st time in 30 years that we’ve had this bad of a blizzard warning. I thought I’d share this picture of 30 years ago when my son was 6-months old and this was his 1st snowstorm.

Today I have a quick and easy CAS card for you featuring one of my go to sets. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

A week before the class I will send you the complete PDF of the cards so you can cut all your cardstock gather your supplies, so you are ready to go.  We will NOT be cutting cardstock or doing any die cutting live since all the cards will be different.  Everyone’s cards will be unique since you will pick which color cardstock and ink you want to use along with the Designer Series Paper, Ribbon & Embellishments for each card.

The class will be held on Sunday February 22nd from 1pm – 4pm Eastern Time via Zoom.  This will allow everyone all over the United States to participate live!

Stampin’ Up! Winter Scenes for The Card Concepts

Posted on by
4

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend already. I’ve been busy getting my product shares cut up and packaged. I’m hoping to head over to the post office after work today to get them sent out to everyone.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo #223 is Cozy New Year. I used lots of layered on my card, since that is one of my favorite kinds of cards to make. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Winter Scenes Banner 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Winter Scenes Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Kisses Stamp Set, Country Woods Designer Series Paper, Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder, Party Banner Dies and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today. I was inspired by the colors for my clean and layered card today.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 223.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Winter Scenes Banner 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere a panel of Country Woods DSP to a Pecan Pie card base. Using the Party Banners Dies, cut the panel of Real Red Two-Tone cardstock. Emboss the banner using the Birch Wood EF, use a sanding block on the banner.

Stampin' Up! Winter Scenes Banner 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Wrap a piece of Linen Thread around the top of the banner and tie a bow. Adhere the banner to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Using the largest circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies, cut the panel of Basic White. Stamp the cabin image form the Winter Scenes stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on the die cut circle. Stamp the sentiment from the Snowflake Kisses stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on the top of the die cut circle. Mask the image with a sticky note and add Pool Party Ink using the Small Blending Brush.

Stampin' Up! Winter Scenes Banner 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Color the image using Pecan Pie and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. Go over the snowy areas using the Wink of Stella Brush. Adhere the artwork to the banner using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a Streaked Dot to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Winter Scenes Banner 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment form the Snowflake Kisses stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on the panel of Basic White. Stamp the cabin image from the Winter Scenes stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on the bottom of the panel. Mask and color the image the same as for the card front. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Real Red mat then to the inside of the Pecan Pie card base.

Stampin' Up! Winter Scenes Banner 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete your card. Stamp the cabin image from the Winter Scenes stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on the envelope front. Mask and color the image the same as for the card front. Adhere a panel of Country Woods DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Symphony Masculine Card

Posted on by

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week and the last Monday of 2025. Another year just about gone and a new one to start in just a few days. How was your weekend? I didn’t do anything that I planned to do. I was going to spend time in my card studio getting some cards made and just enjoying some creative time. That did not happen. I need everyone in my house to go back to work so I can have the house to myself.

I think this bundle and DSP that I used for today’s card has to be my favorite since I find myself using it a lot. I especially love DSP that has script on it.  If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Symphony Masculine 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Symphony Bundle along with the Nature Walk Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #717.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Symphony Masculine 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere a panel of Nature Walk DSP to a Misty Moonlight card base. Adhere a smaller panel of Nature Walk DSP to the center of the card front.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Symphony Masculine 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Cut the leaf die with snips and adhere the pieces to the card front. Adhere the Misty Moonlight wood die piece over the leaf stems.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Symphony Masculine 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from the Nature’s Symphony stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Faux Bronze Pentagons to the card front.

Stamp the wood grain image from the Nature’s Symphony stamp set in Basic Beige Ink over the sentiment. Ahere the Basic Beige panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper Share, Two-Tone Cardstock Share, Ribbon Share & Embellishment Share from the September-December 2025 Mini Catalog, along with the upcoming September Online Exclusives and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on September 3rd and I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of September 8th. Wouldn’t you love to have all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers in the Stampin’ Up! September – December 2025 Mini Catalog and the upcoming September Online Exclusives?  What is a Paper Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers from the Catalog and Online Exclusives. Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!  If you were to purchase all of the DSP in the new Catalog and Online Exclusives, it would cost you over $165.00 plus shipping and if you were to purchase all the ribbon it would cost you over $75.00.

New Designer Series Paper Share – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail Shipping

How my shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Designer Series Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ X 6″ pieces (or 6″ X 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list.  I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag with labels listing the Name, Item # and Colors in the pack and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!

Stampin’ Up! Layered Thoughts CAS

Posted on by

Good HOT Tuesday morning stamping friends. It’s supposed to hit just about 100 here in NJ today with the real feel of 110. Add the humidity and poor air quality to that and you have an inside crafting day. I did head out for a quick walk early this morning before the heat got too bad.

I have a super quick and easy card for you today for those times when you are heading out the door and realize you forgot the birthday card. I think I put this one together in less than 10 minutes. The stamp set I used along with some of the beautiful DSP makes a perfect quick card that others will think you took much longer to make. It took me longer to take the pictures than to make it. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Layered Thoughts CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Layered Thoughts Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Thoughtful Journey 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Layered Thoughts CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiments from the Layered Thoughts stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a panel of Thoughtful Journey DSP.

Stampin' Up! Layered Thoughts CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the stamped panel to a Cajun Craze mat with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to a Petal Pink card base with Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Layered Thoughts CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Add a Low-Profile Sparkle Dot to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Layered Thoughts CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Layered Thoughts stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. Adhere a panel of Thoughtful Journey DSP to the bottom of the panel Adhere the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! Layered Thoughts CAS 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Finish your card by decorating a Basic White Medium Envelope. Adhere a strip of the Thoughtful Journey DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend already.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo #218 is Summer Days. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Sunrise Sailing Congratulations 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Sunrise Sailing Bundle along with the Beautiful Gallery 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper. I was inspired by the theme ‘Summer Days’ along with the 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 218.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Sunrise Sailing Congratulations 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Cut the panel of Beautiful Gallery DSP into 1 1/4″ & 2 1/2″ panels with your Paper Trimmer. Adhere the 2 panels to a Secret Sea mat with Stampin’ Seal, leaving a little space in between the panels. Adhere the layered panel to a Cloud Cover card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Stamp the bird image from the Stampin’ Up! Sunrise Sailing Photopolymer Stamp Set in Secret Sea Ink on the card front panel a few times.

Stampin' Up! Sunrise Sailing Congratulations 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

From scraps of Beautiful Gallery DSP, cut the medium and small sailboats using the Sunrise Sailing Dies. Cut each of them 2 times and using Paper Snips, trim the sails off one and adhere them to the other sailboats. Adhere the sailboats to the card front with Liquid Glue.

Stamp the small leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Notes Cling Stamp Set in Basic Beige Ink on the corners of the die cut panel.
