Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy CAS Birthday

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend?

I have a quick CAS card for you today using a Sale-a-bration item and a new embossing folder that will be available March 1. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy CAS Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Beautifully Happy Photopolymer Stamp Set and the upcoming Basics 3D Embossing Folder for CAS my card today. This stamp set is FREE with a qualifying order of $100 during Sale-a-bration.

I started by stamping the large outline flower image, the bumblebee image and the sentiment from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on a Basic White card front. I stamped the solid leaf images from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I stamped the solid flower image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink. I stamped the splatter image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in So Saffron Ink around the flower image.

I embossed the panel using one of the new Basics 3E Embossing Folders which will be available starting March 1, 2023. I adhered the panel to a Basic White mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. On the bottom of the panel, I stamped the small outline flower image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Soft Suede Ink. I stamped the solid flower image in Blushing Bride Ink and the solid leaf image in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I stamped the splatter and flower center images in So Saffron Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

*********************************************************************************************************

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! Irresistible Blooms for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? I’m finally going for my MRI today of my shoulder. To say I’m not looking forward to it is an understatement. I DO NOT like being in that tunnel at all, but I need to know what the next step for this shoulder is. Last time I was at the Dr’s they said about a reverse shoulder replacement. We’ll see what the MRI says. Does anyone have plans for the weekend? Will anyone be watching the Super Bowl? Are you Go Team Chiefs or Go Team Eagles? I might watch the commercials and halftime show, but if I miss it, I won’t be upset. I’ll be at work tomorrow all day and Sunday we have out monthly team meeting. I’m also hoping to get in some craft time.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms Bundle and the Hello Irresistible 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today. These items will be available to customers starting on March 1, 2023. This is the 1st of Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Products.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by scoring and folding an Evening Evergreen card base at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″ making a ‘Z’ fold card. I scored the small card base at 1″ and adhered it to the card base on the right side using Stampin’ Seal +.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Fine Shimmer Paper using the long die from the Irresistible Blooms Dies. I adhered the die cut panel to a panel of Hello Irresistible DSP. I adhered the panel of Hello Irresistible DSP to a Fine Shimmer Paper mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the Evening Evergreen card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered another panel of Hello Irresistible DSP to a Fine Shimmer Paper mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the front of the small Evening Evergreen card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On panels of Blackberry Bliss and Fresh Freesia cardstock, I stamped the flower images from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled the images with Gold Embossing Powder and set them using my Heat Tool. On a panel of Soft Sea Foam cardstock, I stamped the leaf images from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink. I cut all the images out using the Irresistible Blooms Dies. I cut the detailed leaves dies from a panel of Fine Shimmer Paper using the Irresistible Blooms Dies. I arranged the die cut images on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals, Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Glue Dots. On a strip of Evening Evergreen cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with my Gold Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I made a banner using my Banner Pick A Punch. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Loose Frosted Dots (available March 1) to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink. On the bottom of the panel, I stamped the flower image from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Fresh Freesia Ink. I masked the image and stamped the leaf images around the flower in Evening Evergreen Ink. I colored the flower image using my Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends Markers and the leaves using my Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the card base.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms Bundle, the Hello Irresistible 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and the Basics 3D Embossing Folders for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Soft Sea Foam card front using 1 of the new Basics 3D Embossing Folders. I adhered the card front to a Soft Sea Foam card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Basic Whtie cardstock using the Irresistible Blooms Dies. I adhered the die cut panel to a panel of Hello Irresistible DSP using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampn’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On panels of Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo and Petal Pink cardstock I stamped the flower images from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled the images with my White Embossing Powder and set them using my Heat Tool. On a panel of Soft Sea Foam cardstock, I stamped the leaf images from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled the images with my White Embossing Powder and set them using my Heat Tool. I cut all the images out with the Irresistible Blooms Dies. I arranged the flowers and leaves on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a strip of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Gray Granite Ink. I cut the edge using the Happy Labels Pick A Punch. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Pretty Peacock Loose Frosted Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the small flower image from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set on the top corner in Daffodil Delight Ink and colored it using my Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the large flower image from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored it using my Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the leaf images from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink around the flowers and colored them using my Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat then to the inside of the Soft Sea Foam card base.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Hello 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large flower image from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using my Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the leaf images from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink around the flower and colored them using my Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Hello Irresistible DSP to the envelope flap.

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.

Today I have a card that we made at our Creativity Now event from Saturday night. The designers from Stampin’ Up! came up with 4 different cards that we made. Some of them were not exactly my style, but I made them anyway. They adhered DSP and dies crooked on the card fronts. Those that know me, know that I like things straight. These cards were out of my comfort zone, and I liked them lol. I’ll be showing the others over the next week. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Splendid Thoughts Bundle (available July 1st) along with the Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Photopolymer Stamp Set and Splendid Day Specialty Designer Series Paper (available July 1st) for my card today.

I started by embossing a Fresh Freesia card front using the Hive 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Fresh Freesia card base. I adhered a panel of the Splendid Day DSP to the card front on an angle using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I colored a panel of Basic White cardstock using my Fresh Freesia and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I colored the top half with my Light Pool Party and the bottom half with my Light Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends Marker. I colored of the center of the panel with Dark Pool Party and Dark Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends Marker (I hope this makes sense). I stamped the bumblebee image from the Stampin’ Up! Splendid Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Pool Party and Fresh Freesia Inks on their respective colors. I adhered the panel to the card front at the opposite angle of the DSP using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Fresh Freesia Ink. Using my Paper Snips, I cut the ends into a banner. I cut 2 of the leaf dies from the Splendid Stems Dies from a panel of Soft Sea Foam cardstock. I adhered the dies to the back of the sentiment using Glue Dots. I adhered a piece of the beautiful Soft Sea Foam 3/8″ Seam Binding Ribbon (available July 1st) behind the sentiment using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Opal Rounds to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Fresh Freesia Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the eucalyptus and bumblebee images from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Pool Party Ink on the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Sea Foam mat and then to the inside of the Fresh Freesia card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the eucalyptus and image from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Pool Party Ink on the envelope front and the bee image in Fresh Freesia Ink. I adhered a panel of the Splendid Day DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card. The bundle and DSP used for my card today will be available for purchase starting on Friday July 1st. I hope that you are getting those shopping lists ready. I have mine ready to go first thing in the morning. Happy Stamping!!

Paper Pumpkin Price Increases Beginning March 1

On March 1, 2022, Paper Pumpkin kits will see a slight increase in price for both month-to-month orders and prepaid subscriptions. Despite Covid’s continued strain on the global economy, Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin kits–including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing in order to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit.

Here are the details:

You will begin to see the price change on paper pumpkin.com

beginning February 11, with the start of the March subscription period.

Shipping added based on order total at time of check out. 

Prepaid codes–both redeemed and unredeemed–purchased before the 1 March price change will maintain their full value. No additional payment will be required. 

Prices for past kits and refills released before March 1, 2022 will remain unchanged.

Let me know if you have any questions about the price changes.  ***If you purchase Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Kits during February, you’ll save a few $$ and possibly earn some free Sale-a-bration items too!
