Stampin’ Up! Silly Goose

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun? I had a lot of fun at my workshop stamping along and showing others how to make the cards I designed. I believe the ladies that were there enjoyed stamping together too.

I have a quick CAS card for you today playing with product from the Annual Catalog, January-April Mini Catalog and Online Exclusive. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made my card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Silly Goose 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Silly Goose Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Everyday Details Dies and Online Exclusive Hello, Irresistible 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches #624.

Stampin' Up! Silly Goose 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by using the Everyday Details Dies and cutting the rick rack on a Basic White card front. I stamped the goose image from the Silly Goose stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink above the rick rack.

I colored their feet and beaks using Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Silly Goose stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink above the image.

I adhered 2 strips of Hello Irresistible DSP to the side and bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Liquid Glue. I added a Daffodil Delight Glossy Dot Assortment by the sentiment.

On the inside, I stamped the goose image from the Silly Goose stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the image using Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the bottom of the panel using the rick rack die from the Every Day Details Dies. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the goose image and sentiment from the Silly Goose stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Hello Irresistible DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Detailed Dogwood Mother’s Day

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? Did you know it’s National Love You Pet Day? I don’t know about you, but every day is Love Your Pet Day in my house. Before I get started with my card, I wanted to share a couple pictures of how I have to make cards with Coraline at my side and how I do things in the kitchen with her.

I usually stand when making cards so I can get around easily without getting up and down. She doesn’t make it easy to get around.

In the kitchen, she has to be right under my feet at all times or around them. Think she’s a mama’s girl?

Today’s card I used some Sale-a-bration items again. I want to use them as much as possible before they are gone. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made today’s card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Mother's Day 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Detailed Dogwood Cling Stamp Set, Softly Sophisticated 3D Embossing Folder and Sunny Days Designer Series Paper along with the Stampin’ Up! Perennial Postage Bundle for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Mother's Day 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Basic Gray card front using the Softly Sophisticated EF. I adhered a panel of Sunny Days DSP to the panel using Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Basic Gray card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Mother's Day 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the large dogwood image from the Detailed Dogwood stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. I colored the image using Old Olive and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Perennial Postage Cling Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink next to the dogwood image.

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Mother's Day 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the artwork to a Basic Gray mat using Stampin’ Seal. From a panel of Basic White, I cut the 2nd largest die from the Perennial Postage Dies. I adhered the layered artwork to the die cut panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a couple dragonflies from the Online Exclusive Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds. I added a Petal Pink gem from the Petal Pink & Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems.

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Mother's Day 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiments from the Perennial Postage stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the smaller dogwood image from the Detailed Dogwood stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the dragonfly image from the Detailed Dogwood stamp set in Basic Gray Ink next to the sentiment, stamping off once on scrap paper. I colored the dogwood image using Old Olive and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat then to the inside of the Basic Gray card base.

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Mother's Day 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large dogwood image from the Detailed Dogwood stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the dragonfly image from the Detailed Dogwood stamp set in Basic Gray Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the envelope front. I colored the image the same as I did the card. I adhered a panel of Sunny Days DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Latte Love Thank You

Hello stamp0ing friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? We got a lot mor snow than expected yesterday. They said 1″-3″ and we got about 10″-12″. Good thing it was the light and fluffy kind. Now it’s back up to the 40’s today and melting.

I have a quick card for you today using some Online Exclusive products that will be available starting March 5th. If you’d like to get your hands on them early, you can add these to your starter kit. 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! Latte Love Thanks 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Latte Love Bundle along with A Little Latte Designer Series Paper (both these items will be available starting March 5), Stylish Shapes Dies and Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

My design is from Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #431.

Stampin' Up! Latte Love Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing A Little Latte DSP card front using the Painted Texture EF. I adhered the DSP card front to a Pecan Pie mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered 3 strips of A Little Latte DSP to the card front using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Latte Love Thanks 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of A Little Latte DSP, I cut 3 of the cup images using the Latte Love Dies. I adhered 2 of the cups using Glue Dots and the top cup using Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Latte Love Thanks 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Calypso Coral, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Latte Love Photopolymer Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few of the Adhesive-Backed Swirl Dots (available March 5), to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Latte Love Thanks 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the large cup image from Latte Love stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the sentiment from the Latte Love stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the cup. I stamped the coffee in the cup and the steam images from the Latte Love stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Calypso Coral card base.

Stampin' Up! Latte Love Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large cup image from Latte Love stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the coffee image and the steam image from the Latte Love stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the cup. I adhered a panel of A Little Latte DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Latte Love Thanks 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

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

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:

  1. 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….
  2. 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.

Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Nature for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends and Happy Valentine’s Day. How is everyone doing today? Is anyone doing anything for Valentine’s Day? It’s Wednesday, so I’ll be working.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We are doing month-long challenges now, so you have all month to enter multiple times.  The inspiration photo #204 is Winter Warmth. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Nature Bundle (available March 5th) along with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. I was inspired by the pine trees in the photo along with the color scheme for my Clean & Layered card today. 

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 204.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the branch circle from the Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Nature Photopolymer Stamp Set on a Very Vanilla card front in Early Espresso Ink. I cut the center of the circle out using the Encircled In Nature Dies. I embossed the die cut panel using the Timber EF.

On another panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the rounded tree image and the tall tree image from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I stamped the moon and stars image from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Lemon Lolly Ink between the trees. I adhered the embossed card front to the stamped Very Vanilla mat using Stampin’ Dimensionals. From a panel of Mossy Meadow I cut the tree images using the Encircled In Nature Dies. From a panel of Crumb Cake, I cut the foliage image using the Encircled In Natures Dies. I adhered the die cut images to the bottom of the branch circle using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered card front to a Mossy Meadow card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the sentiment from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I cut the ends of the sentiment on an angle using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a double bow using Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack. I adhered the bow to the sentiment using a Glue Dot. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Cork Rounds to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I stamped the tree images from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Very Vanilla mat then to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base.

Stampin’ Up! Filled With Fun for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

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 Ann Louise’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Birthday”. We can interpret this however we want. A friend of ours, daughter’s 3rd birthday is coming up and this set seemed perfect for her card. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up! Filled With Fun Bundle (available March 5) along with the Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper, Stampin’ Up! Zany Zoo Cling Stamp Set and Hot Air Balloon Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Filled With Fun birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Fresh As A Daisy DSP to a Basic White thick card base using Liquid Glue. I adhered another strip of Fresh As A Daisy DSP to the bottom of the card front using Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Sweetly Scripted Thank You

Good Sunday afternoon stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? Are you ready for the big game tonight? I’ll be in my craft studio trying to create some cards. I listen and watch for the commercials mainly, I’m not a big football fan and it’s not my husband’s team playing so it’ll be fairly quiet here.

Today’s card is a quick and easy one using a New Online Exclusive set coming in March and some Sale-a-bration items that are only available until February 29th or while supplies last. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made my card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Sweetly Scripted Thank You 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Sweetly Scripted Cling Stamp Set (available March 5) along with the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Softly Sophisticated Bundle and Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Sweetly Scripted Thank You 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Sweetly Scripted stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on Basic White card front. I embossed the panel using the Softly Sophisticated 3D Embossing Folder. 

Stampin' Up! Sweetly Scripted Thank You 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a panel of Softly Stippled DSP to the bottom of the embossed panel using Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of the Sale-a-bration Pool Party 5/8″ Crinkled Ribbon around the panel and tied a bow. 

Stampin' Up! Sweetly Scripted Thank You 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Liquid Glue. I added a few of the Sale-a-bration Opaque Faceted Gems to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Sweetly Scripted Thank You 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Sale-a-bration Stampin’ Up!

I’m offering a little ordering special for Valentine’s Day again this year!  I call it my “Stuck on You Valentine” ordering special!

For all orders of $50 or greater (before shipping and taxes) that have my Current Host Code T9JKA3XQ applied or for individual orders of $150 or greater placed through me between now and Wednesday, February 14, you’ll get your choice of a free adhesive! You MUST remember to add my Host Code to your orders.

This can be anything that Stampin’ Up! sells that could be used as an adhesive!  And for the adhesives that are $5 or under, two packs will equal one choice (see the items with the (2) on the list below) so if you select those, you’ll get double, YAY!!

The adhesive will be in addition to the normal thank you gift that I order for you!!  Plus, since your order will be over $50, you’ll earn Sale-A-Bration item(s) too.  A big double YAY for more free goodies!!

***Please note, if your order is over $150, do not apply a host code.  If you apply a host code to your order, it will take away your host benefits and we don’t want that!  But don’t worry, you’ll still be eligible for the free gift and free adhesive offer!

Here is a list of the adhesives that you can pick from:

  • Adhesive Sheets
  • Multipurpose Liquid Glue
  • Mini Glue Dots
  • Tear & Tape Adhesive
  • Stampin’ Seal
  • Stampin’ Seal Refill
  • Stampin’ Seal +
  • Stampin’ Seal + Refill
  • Fine-Tip Glue Pen
  • Silicone Craft Sheet (even though it’s not an adhesive…it is an awesome tool for adhesives!)
  • Foam Adhesive Strips
  • Stampin’ Dimensionals (2)
  • Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (2)
  • Black Stampin’ Dimensionals Combo Pack
  • Foam Adhesive Sheets
  • Cling Adhesive
  • Heat & Stick Powder

I’ll be placing the order for the adhesives with my host orders on February 16th, so please be sure to send your selections right away when you order…otherwise I’ll pick one for you and send it out with your thank you gift!

*With Stampin’ Up!’s new backorder policy where numbers are turned off for ordering if they go on backorder, if the adhesive that you pick is turned off for ordering when I place the order on the 16th, I’ll order Stampin’ Dimensionals for you instead.

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   T9JKA3XQ

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 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog or from the Online Exclusives!  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:

  1. 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….
  2. 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.

Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia CAS

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

I have a sneak peek for you today featuring Online Exclusive product coming March 5th. I also went a bit out of my comfort zone with the colors just to challenge myself. 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! Simply Zinnia CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Simply Zinnia Cling Stamp Set today for my card. It’s a CAS card using just stamps, ink and paper.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of a Basic White card front. 

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the large flower image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set below the sentiment in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Melon Mambo and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the artwork to a Pumpkin Pie mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered a panel of Daffodil Delight to a Melon Mambo card base using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered artwork to the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large flower image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel. I colored the image using Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Melon Mambo and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pumpkin Pie mat, then to a Daffodil Delight mat and to the inside of the Melon Mambo card base.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia CAS 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small zinnia and leaf images from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and flap. I colored the images using Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Melon Mambo and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. 

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia CAS 7 creativestampingdesigns.com
