If you’re liking what you have seen lately, you might want to register for our Online Class at the end of this month, but today’s the last day to do that. Today’s card was designed by one of my amazing team members, Nicole Bloxom. Nicole will actually be joining Tara and me for our August Class as a presenter, which I’m really looking forward to. Here’s my card for today designed by Nicole.

Stampin’ Up! Blooming Phrases Along These Lines

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans in the works. It’s supposed to rain here today, at least that’s the last I heard. I’ll be at work all day, so we’ll see what the day brings.

For today’s card I played with the same 2 sets I played with last week. When I won this set at OnStage, I wasn’t sure if I would even use it. Once I paired it up with the sentiment set, ideas were coming to me. 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.

Good afternoon stamping friends. This is my 2nd post today. If you are looking for my card, you can find it Here.

Tara and I are offering an Online Class on June 29th using the Cheers & Sips Bundle. If you are thinking about signing up for this class, I’m hoping you will sign up sooner than later. With the upcoming Buy 1 Get 1 at 50% off sale coming on June 3rd, I don’t want to be worrying about them selling out of any of the products from this suite. Once you sign up, if you are purchasing anything extra, I will send the invoice out right away. I’m planning on placing my order Monday night for any bundles that are ordered through me along with the ribbon and embellishments to ensure I get them. If you are ordering any of the products on your own, I highly suggest that you get your orders in early Tuesday morning.

Tara Carpenter and I are teaming up to offer a fun online class using Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Cheers & Sips Bundle.  We will be creating 6 different cards during the class including 2 fun folds.

Stampin’ Up! Gallery Blooms Birthday

Good Sunday morning stamping friends, Happy June!!! How is your weekend going? I’ll be at work super early today so I can get the bills done and have the rest of the day for myself.

Today’s card I did a little Emboss Resist Technique. I haven’t done this in a while, and I forgot how much I like it.  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! Gallery Blooms Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Gallery Blooms Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! the Right Words Cling Stamp Set, Irresistible Designs Specialty Designer Series Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

My design is from Sunday Stamps Challenge #361 In the Corner.

I also played along with the Tic Tac Toe Challenge #271 I went down the left side with Soft Colors, Paid and Flowers.

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Blending Brush, add Pool Party Ink to an Irresistible Designs DSP panel. Adhere the inked panel to a Pool Party card base with Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Petal Pink, stamp the floral image from the Gallery Blooms stamp set in Versamark Ink. Sprinkle the image with White Embossing Powder and set it with the Heat Tool. Cut the image out using the 2nd largest square from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Color the image with Petal Pink and Pool Party Stampin’ Write Markers. Gently wipe over the image with a tissue to remove any ink from the embossing. Adhere the artwork to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Pool Party Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and Stampin’ Seal. Add a few Antique Pearls to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Pool Party Ink. Adhere a strip of the Irresistible Designs DSP that has been inked up with Pool party Ink and the Blending Brush, to the bottom of the Basic White Panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Pool Party mat then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic white Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the flower image from the Gallery Blooms stamp set in Versamark Ink on the envelope front. Sprinkle the image with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. Color the image with Petal Pink and Pool Party Stampin’ Write Markers. Adhere a panel of Irresistible Designs DSP that was inked up with Pool Party Ink, to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Inspiring Imperfections

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. I hope you have off today for Memorial Day, and I hope you will take a moment today to remember all the men and women who gave it ALL to allow us the freedoms we enjoy in this country. Today is also my daughter’s birthday. Her birthday is almost always during Memorial weekend, and we always celebrate it on Memorial Day with a picnic.

Today’s card features my favorite color combo. As most of you know, I just love the Subtle colors, so that’s what I used for today. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Inspiring Imperfections Bundle along with the Join Together 3D Embossing Folder, Kintsugi Inspirations Specialty Designer Series Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Emboss the Pool Party card front using the Join Together EF. Adhere the embossed panel to a Pool Party card base with Liquid Glue. Adhere a panel of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP to a Lost Lagoon mat with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to the card front with Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Small Blending Brush, add Lost Lagoon Ink to a panel of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP. Cut the panel using the 2nd largest square die from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Adhere the die cut square to a Lost Lagoon mat with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to the card front with Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the small bowl image from the Stampin’ Up! Inspiring Imperfections Photopolymer Stamp Set in Petal Pink Ink. Stamp the crack image from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Versamark Ink over the stamped image. Sprinkle it with Gold Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. Using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies, cut the bowl out. Cut 2 of the flower dies cut from a panel of Petal Pink. Adhere the bowl and die cut flowers to the small, layered panel with Glue Dots.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies. Adhere a piece of the Gold Striped 3/8″ Mesh Ribbon to the card front with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the sentiment over the ribbon with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Flower Accents to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink. Using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies, cut another flower die and adhere it to the top of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Lost Lagoon mat then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish the card. Stamp the small bowl image from Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the envelope front. Adhere a panel of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP to the envelope flap.
