Stampin’ Up! Market Goodness for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Are you ready for the weekend? I hope you are starting to make some fun plans.

Today’s card I played with a whole suite collection. This is one that I wasn’t sure if I wanted or not. When I got the DSP for my shares I fell in love with it, but still wasn’t sure about the bundle. I really like the sentiments from it but wasn’t totally convinced yet. Then we had that additional 10% off sale last month and I decided to order it. I’m so happy I did, it’s so much fun to play with. 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! Market Goodness Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! To Market Suite Collection for my card today, which includes the Stampin’ Up! Market Goodness Bundle and To Market Designer Series Paper.

I started by scoring and folding a Blackberry Bliss card base at 2 1/8″(mountain fold), 2 1/4″(mountain fold) and 5 1/2″(valley fold).

Stampin' Up! Market Goodness Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a panel of To Market DSP to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to a Peach Pie mat using Liquid Glue. Adhere the layered panel to the Blackberry Bliss card base on the first 2 1/8″ section using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Market Goodness Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the 1″ panel of To Market DSP to a Peach Pie mat using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to the left 1 1/4″ section of the Blackberry Bliss card front using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Market Goodness Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, using the Stampin’ Up! Market Goodness Photopolymer Stamp Set, stamp the tomato image in Real Red Ink, carrot image in Pumpkin Pie Ink, beet image in Blackberry Bliss Ink and the details lettuce image in Garden Green Ink. Stamp the tomato stem image from the Market Goodness stamp set in Garden Green Ink on the tomatoes. Stamp the carrot and beet leaf images from the Market Goodness stamp set in Garden Green Ink on top of the carrots and beets. Stamp set solid lettuce image from the Market Goodness stamp set in Garden Green Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on top of the detailed lettuce image. Cut all the image out using the Market Goodness Dies. From a panel of Basic Beige, cut the bag die using the Market Goodness Dies. Arrange the vegetables in the bag the way you want them and adhere the bag to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Stamp the sentiment from the Market Goodness stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a strip of Basic White. Adhered the sentiment to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Stampin’ Seal. Adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin Dimensionals. Add a few Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Market Goodness Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, stamp the sentiment from the Market Goodness stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the carrot, tomato and lettuce images from the Market Goodness stamp set on the panel the same as for the card front. Adhered the Basic White panel to the left side of the Peach Pie mat. Adhere the 1″ strip of To Market DSP to the right side of the mat. Adhere the layered panel to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base.

Stampin' Up! Market Goodness Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish the card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the beet, carrot, lettuce and tomato images from the Market Goodness stamp set on the envelope front the same as I did for the card front. I adhered a panel of To Market DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. What kind of plans do you have for the weekend? I’ll be working all day today and after work one of my cashiers invited all the employees to her house for a company picnic.

I have a quick and easy card for you today using a suite from the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog and new dies coming July 3rd from the Online Exclusives. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Unbounded Love Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty Photopolymer Stamp Set, Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and the new Online Exclusive Greetings of the Season Dies, that will be available starting July 3rd, for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Unbounded Beauty DSP to a Calypso Coral card base using Liquid Glue. I adhered a smaller panel of Unbounded Beauty DSP to the card front using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Calypso Coral using the largest die from the Greetings of the Season Dies. I stamped the leaf image from the Flowers of Beauty stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the tag. I tied a small bow using White Baker’s Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack on the top of the tag. I adhered the tag to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Unbounded Love Photopolymer Stamp Set in Calypso Coral Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Unbounded Love Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a couple 2024-2026 In-Color Resin Dots to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Unbounded Love stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the leaf image from the Flowers of Beauty stamp set in Peach Pie Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the panel of Basic White to a Peach Pie mat then to the inside of the Calypso Coral card base.

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Flowers of Beauty Tag 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from the Flowers of Beauty stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Unbounded Beauty DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops in Gray

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. Here we are halfway through another week. Summer is in full spring here in NJ with the temps being in the 90’s again. I really don’t mind the heat, it’s when the humidity comes with it that I can’t breath. Yesterday was 92 and it was just beautiful out.

I have another sneak peek for you today of the products from the suite coming in the upcoming September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops in Gray 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Bundle along with the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Here are the products in the Nests of Winter Suite (minus the card bases)

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops in Gray 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Basic Gray using the largest die from the Winterly Tree Tops Dies. I adhered a panel of Nests of Winter DSP t the back of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered panel to a Misty Moonlight card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops in Gray 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Gray Granite, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals only on the bottom of the panel.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops in Gray 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the single bird and spray images from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images using Balmy Blue, Cajun Craze, Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry and Night of Navy watercolor pencils from the Watercolor Pencils Assortment #2. I cut the images out using the Winterly Tree Tops Dies. I adhered the spray on an angle to the card front tucked under the sentiment. I adhered the bird on top of the spray using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Earth Tones Shimmer Gems to the card front.

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend!!! Does anyone have plans in the works today? I have a virtual event that I’ll be attending, Creativity Now, and we’ll be using a new suite of products that products will be available in the September – December 2024 Mini Catalog.

I started by adhering the folded portion of the Summer Splash card base together using Liquid Glue. I adhered the panels of Full of Life DSP to Pretty Peacock mats using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Changing Leaves Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Very Vanilla, I cut the larger duck, wing and beak using the Charming Duck Pond Dies. From a panel of Lemon Lolly, I cut the 5 baby ducks using the Charming Duck Pond Dies. I colored the beak on the large Very Vanilla duck using the Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers. Fo the smaller ducklings, I colored the solid duckling body where the wing would be using the Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers. I colored the beak using the Peach Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I made a mark where the eye is on the small duckling using the Basic Black Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the detailed duckling body to the solid duckling body using Liquid Glue.

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! Under The Moon So Sincere

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends Happy Juneteenth!! Today is a special day, it’s my son’s 29th birthday. It’s hard to believe he’s 29 already, I feel like he was just a baby yesterday. I went to another graduation yesterday which was outside in the wonderful heat wave we’re having. As hot as it was, there was a breeze, so the heat didn’t feel too bad. It was my oldest niece’s son graduating yesterday and her daughter graduated Monday from 8th grade. It was so nice seeing her and the kids who I haven’t seen in a while. Afterwards we were able to catch up and chat for a bit.

I have another super quick card for you today where I let the DSP do most of the work. It’s one of my cashier’s birthday this week and she loves sailing. I always try to make cards for them having to do with something they like. 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! Sketched Butterflies

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend!!! It’s supposed to be a beautiful one here in NJ. I’ll be working all day today, and I’m guessing with a beautiful day ahead it’s going to be crazy busy.

I have a super quick thank you card for you today. I’m trying to get some thank you cards done for my daughter. She has gotten some graduation gifts and asked me to make her a few cards. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Thanks 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Bundle along with the Full of Life 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a piece of Adhesive Sheet to the back of a panel of Basic Black and cut the 3 butterflies using the Sketched Butterflies Dies from a panel of Basic Black. I adhered a Full of Life DSP card front to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Thanks 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered panel to a Daffodil Delight card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the die cut butterflied to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Thanks 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Cling Stamp Set on a panel of Basic White in Tuxedo Black Ink. I tied a bow using the Basic Black Baker’s Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack and adhered it to the card front using a Glue Dot. I adhered the sentiment over the bow using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Faceted Gems to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Thanks 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered 2 strips of the Full of Life DSP to the top and bottom of the panel. I stamped the cluster of butterflies image from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink next to the sentiment. I colored the butterflies using Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist and Peach Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat then to the inside of the Daffodil Delight card base.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Thanks 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the butterfly image from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Daffodil Delight and Peach Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Full of Life DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies 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!!

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

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.

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share and Ribbon share from the Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on May 1st. 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 May 13th. You can order just the DSP share or just the ribbon share or you can order both.

Do you want all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers in the Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog but can’t afford everything?  I’m doing a Designer Series Paper Share! What is a Paper Share you ask?

New Designer Series Paper Share – $65.00 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 NameItem # and Colors in the pack and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!  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 need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   GVPUUBAZ

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.
