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.

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.

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.

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! 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! Under The Moon So Sincere 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Under The Moon Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! So Sincere Cling Stamp Set and Thoughtful Journey 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my CAS card today.

Stampin' Up! Under The Moon So Sincere 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a Thoughtful Journey DSP card front, I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the side of the panel.

Stampin' Up! Under The Moon So Sincere 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sailboat image from the Under the Moon stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink 2 times on the card front panel. I stamped the cloud image from the Under the Moon stamp set in Versamark Ink on the top of the panel. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it with the Heat Tool.

Stampin' Up! Under The Moon So Sincere 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the Thoughtful Journey DSP card front to a Petunia Pop mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Misty Moonlight card base using Stampin Dimensionals. I added a few Online Exclusive, Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds to the card front.

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! Labeled With Love Birthday

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already. Hope you are having a good week so far.

Last night was our Stamp Camp Card Class. On of the cards one of the ladies picked used the Brights DSP. I only had one of each color so everyone had a different color card. I had scrap pieces left over from their cards so I decided to make a card with them. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels.

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the frame image from the Stampin Up! Labeled With Love Photopolymer Stamp Set in Lemon Lie Twist Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Labeled With Love stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink inside the frame. I cut the sentiment out using the Labeled With Love Dies.

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! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks

Good Monday morning stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? It was beautiful here in NJ, sunny and not too hot.

I have a super quick card for you today, that once again, I let the DSP do the work for 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 is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Thoughtful Journey DSP to a Mossy Meadow card base using Liquid Glue.

I cut a panel of Cajun Craze using the arch from the Garden Meadow Dies. I adhered the die cut card front to the Mossy Meadow card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Unbounded Love Dies. I tied a double bow using Linen Thread and adhered it to the card front using a Glue Dot. I adhered the sentiment over the linen thread using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Metallic Gems and Adhesive Back Dragonflies and Birds to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a panel of Basic White, I stamped the leaf image from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the side of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat then to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base.

Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Birthday

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. How was your Memorial Day? Did anyone have or go to a picnic? We planned a picnic the last minute and then saw the weather forecast, which was rain and thunderstorms. We decided to cancel unless any of my husband’s friends wanted to come over to hang out and play games. A few came over and we had an extremely small inside picnic. I went into work for a little bit in the morning even though the store was closed. I was able to get my work done in silence without any interruptions of the phone or customers, now I have off until Friday since I did that.

I played with one of my favorite bundles from the new catalog and my favorite DSP and colors. 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! Country Birdhouse Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Bundle along with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a panel of Country Woods DSP to a Petal Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Pool Party card base using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the birdhouse and bird images from the Stampin’ Up Country Birdhouse Photopolymer Stamp Set in Smoky Slate Ink. I stamped the tiny flower image from the Country Birdhouse stamp set on the scalloped part of the birdhouse in Misty Moonlight Ink. I colored the images using Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake, Lemon Lolly, Misty Moonlight, Petal Pink, Pool Party and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut the images out using the Country Birdhouse Dies. I cut the bow die from a panel of Basic Beige. I adhered the bow to the birdhouse using Liquid Glue. I adhered the birdhouse to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the bird to the bird house using Stampin’ Dimensionals.. I added a few Tinsel Gems Three Pack to the birdhouse.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic Whtie. I adhered a strip of the Country Woods DSP to the side of the panel. I stamped the flower image from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the images using Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly, Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the front of the envelope. I colored the images using Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly, Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Country Woods DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? Does anyone have plans for tomorrow yet? We’ll be having our yearly Memorial Day picnic and we’ll be celebrating my daughter’s and Coraline’s birthdays. Today is both of their birthday’s we have just always celebrated Kara’s on Memorial Day.

I have a quick and easy card for you today. I used a red, I hardly ever use red since I always get all inky from 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 is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Wishes Cling Stamp Set along with the Brights 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Scalloped Contours Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a panel of Brights DSP to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Poppy Parade card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Basic White using the Scalloped Contours Dies. Using Post-It Note Tape along the bottom and sides of the panel, I stamped the small flower image from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel. I colored the image using Granny Apple Green and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped teh splotch image from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink, stamping off 2 times on scrap paper first, around the flowers.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I wrapped a piece of Black Baker’s Twine around the bottom of the panel and tied a bow. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Brushed Brass Butterflies to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the small flower image from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the images using Granny Apple Green & Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the splotch image from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink, stamping off on scrap paper first, around the flowers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat then to the inside of the Poppy Parade card base.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small flower image from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Granny Apple Green and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the splotch image from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink, stamping off on scrap paper first. I adhered a panel of the Brights DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Wishes Thanks 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

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! Poised Peony Hello 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Poised Peony Cling Stamp Set along with the Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Irresistible Blooms Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

This is our sketch for this week

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a panel of Unbounded Beauty DSP to a Pretty In Pink card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the large and medium peony images from the Poised Peony stamp set. I inked the stamps using the Pretty In Pink and Shy Shamrock Stampin’ Write Markers by coloring the stamps and huffing on them to reactivate the ink before stamping. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Shy Shamrock mat using Stampin’ Seal. I stamped the splatter image from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Peach Pie Ink, stamping off on scrap paper first. I adhered the layered panel to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Shy Shamrock Ink on a strip of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Peach Pie behind the sentiment using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Shy Shamrock Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the small peony image from the Poised Peony stamp set next to the sentiment, inking it up with Pretty In Pink and Shy Shamrock Stampin’ Write Markers. I stamped the splatter image from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Peach Pie Ink, stamping off on scrap paper first. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Shy Shamrock mat then to the inside of the Pretty In Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Hello 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the medium peony image from the Poised Peony stamp set on the envelope front, inking it up the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Unbounded Beauty DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Sympathy

Good Monday morning stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? It was a rainy one here on Saturday but yesterday was a gorgeous day, especially in the evening.

Today’s card is one of those cards you hate to make but sometimes just have to. We lost one of our fellow workers last week. He was such an awesome guy, that always made us laugh until our sides hurt. He was all about helping the customers find what they wanted and help them to fix things they needed help with. He is going to be truly missed. I wanted to send a special card to his wife and family. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Sympathy 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Painted Lavender Photopolymer Stamp Set, Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper and Countryside Corners Deis for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Sympathy 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered 5 panels of Perennial Lavender DSP to a Pretty Peacock card base using Liquid Glue

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Sympathy 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Lost Lagoon, I stamped the sentiment from Hope You Know stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Countryside Corners Dies.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Sympathy 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a piece of Basic Beige 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Brushed Brass Butterfly to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Sympathy 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Hope You Know stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the leaf image from Painted Lavender stamps et in Lost Lagoon Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Crumb Cake mat then to the inside of the Pretty Peacock card base.

Stampin' Up! Hope You Know Sympathy 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from the Painted Lavender stamp set on the envelope front in Lost Lagoon Ink. I adhered a strip of the Perennial Lavender DSP to the front of the envelope and a panel to the envelope flap.

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

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:   6C44QBJA

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.
