Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia CAS

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? Did you all remember to spring ahead with your clocks. Most of ours do it on their own, so I only had a couple to take care of. It poured here in NJ yesterday and last night. I’m just so tired of all the rain. I have hydrangeas all around my home. One of the one’s in my backyard is not surviving all the rain, I’m going to have to try to save it by transplanting it to dryer grounds. My backyard is a giant sponge.

Today I have a super simple quick and easy card for you using some Online Exclusive products. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made today’s 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 Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Simply Zinnia Cling Stamp Set along with the Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper and Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a panel of Flowering Zinnias DSP using the Zinnia EF. I adhered the embossed panel to a Lemon Lime Twist mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Blackberry Bliss card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink. I adhered the sentiment to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted sentiment to the card front using Liquid Glue.

I tied a small bow using the 1/8″ Lemon Lime Twist Ribbon from the Ribbon Duo Combo Pack and adhered it to the sentiment using a Glue Dot. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Shining Sequins to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a Basic Whtie panel. I adhered a strip of Flowering Zinnia DSP to a Blackberry Bliss mat then to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Lemon Lime Twist mat then to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of Flowering Zinnia DSP to the envelope front and a panel 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.

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! Inspirational Sketches Daisies

Good Monday morning stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? It was a gorgeous day here yesterday in the upper 60’s with the sun shining bright. Today, well it’s a totally different story. It’s supposed to be 50’s and cloudy today and rainy the rest of the week.

I have a quick CAS card for you today using one of my absolute favorite sets from the mini catalog. As most of you know I’m not a fan of Yellow. Stampin’ Up!’s Lemon Lolly has changed my mind. I think this is my favorite yellow ever. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made today’s card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s My card for today.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Daisies 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! inspirational Sketches Cling Stamp Set along with the Radiating Stitches Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Daisies 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the daisy image and sentiment from the Inspirational Sketches stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on a panel of Basic White. I colored the daisy centers using the Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Daisies 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut the panel using the largest Radiating Stitched Dies. I adhered the card front to a Lemon Lolly mat using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Inspirational Sketches Daisies 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I wrapped a piece of Lemon Lolly ribbon from the 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack around the layered panel and tied a bow. I adhered the layered card front to a Basic White thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Tinsel Gems Four Pack to the card front.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Lemon Lolly mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin’ Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. How is your weekend going? I was at work all day yesterday and I’ll be working all day today too. It rained and rained all day yesterday. It was a slow day at work, which tends to make the day long. Luckily the people I work with are all fun and we like to talk.

I have a fun card with lots of layers. I LOVE making cards with layers. 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! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set, Sending Dies, Scalloped Contour Dies and Bee Mine Designer Series Paper for my card today. Because Valentine’s Day is over it doesn’t mean you can’t still use this adorable DSP.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Bee Mine DSP to a Petal Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Sweet Sorbet card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Petal Pink using the Scalloped Contours Dies. I adhered a panel of Bee Mine DSP to the center of the die cut panel using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Using the Sending Dies, I cut the sentiment mat from a panel of Sweet Sorbet and the detailed sentiment from a panel of Basic Whtie.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the detailed die to the mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the die cut sentiment to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Sending Smiles stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on a strip of Basic White. I cut the sentiment out using the Sending Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the bottom of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the bumblebee image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Daffodil Delight, Petal Pink and Tuxedo Black Ink above the sentiment. I adhered a strip of Bee Mine DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat then to the inside of the Sweet Sorbet card base.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bumble bee image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set on the envelope front in Daffodil Delight, Petal Pink and Tuxedo Balck Inks. I adhered a panel of Bee Mine 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.

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.

Stampin' Up! Silly Goose 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

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.

Stampin' Up! Silly Goose 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

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.

Stampin' Up! Silly Goose 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

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.

Stampin' Up! Silly Goose 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

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! Ice Cream Swirl Thanks

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans in the works or maybe you’re just going to spend some time crafting and relaxing. I’ll be working today and I’m pretty sure it’s going to be a slow day. It’s that time of the year when it’s too cold to do work outside and they’ve gotten most of their inside projects done.

I have a fun card today using a bundle from the January-April Mini Catalog that I finally was able to play with. 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! Ice Cream Swirl Thanks 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Ice Cream Swirl Bundle along with the Sale-a-bration Most Adored Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from Tuesday Morning Sketches #745.

Stampin' Up! Ice Cream Swirl Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Most Adored DSP to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered 3 smaller panels of the Most Adored DSP to the layered panel using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Flirty Flamingo card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Ice Cream Swirl Thanks 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Ice Cream Swirl Dies, I cut the solid ice cream from a panel of Basic White, the ice cream swirl from a panel of Flirty Flamingo, the sprinkles from a panel of Early Espresso and the dish (which is the top of the ice cream cone) from a panel of Coastal Cabana. For the dish, I used the large ice cream cone die, cut them apart at the fold line and cut the bottom using Paper Snips. I adhered the Flirty Flamingo swirl to the Basic White ice cream. I adhered the layered ice cream to the dish using Glue Dots. I adhered the dish of ice cream to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Ice Cream Swirl Thanks 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a small panel of Basic White, I stamped the cherry image from the Stampin’ Up! Ice Cream Swirl Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the Ice Cream Swirl Dies. I adhered the cherry and sprinkles to the ice cream using Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Ice Cream Swirl stamp set in Real Red Ink. I cut the sentiment into a banner using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Sequins Trio to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Ice Cream Swirl Thanks 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the ice cream image from the Ice Cream Swirl stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the sentiment from the Ice Cream Swirl stamp set in Real Red Ink on top of the swirl image. I adhered a strip of Most Adored DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Coastal Cabana mat then to the inside of the Flirty Flamingo card base.

Stampin' Up! Ice Cream Swirl Thanks 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the ice cream image from the Ice Cream Swirl stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ini on the envelope front, stamping off on scrap paper once. I stamped the sentiment from the Ice Cream Swirl stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink on top of the swirl image. I adhered a panel of Most Adored DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Softly Sophisticated for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. This week just flew right by it seems. Are you ready for the weekend? Is anyone starting to make plans? I’ll be working all day Saturday and I have a workshop that I’ll be doing on Sunday. I’m pretty excited about doing the workshop, I’m going to get to meet some new stampers and I hope they like the cards that I designed for them to make.

Today’s card uses all Sale-a-bration items again. These items are free with qualifying orders, but only until next Thursday February 29th. 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! Softly Sophisticated Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sophisticated Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper and Sunny Days Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Softly Sophisticated Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the leaf image from the Softly Sophisticated stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the larger flower image from the Softly Sophisticated stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink on the leaf image. I stamped the sentiment from the Softly Sophisticated stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the top of the panel. I adhered the artwork to a Pecan Pie mat, a Poppy Parade mat and a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal.

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! Stippled Roses for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends and welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Theme Challenge. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s theme.

Stampin' Up! Stippled Roses Thanks 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Stippled Roses Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Softly Sophisticated Photopolymer Stamp Set and Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our theme for this week.

Stampin' Up! Stippled Roses Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Softly Stippled DSP to a Calypso Coral card base using Liquid Glue. I adhered a smaller panel of Softly Stippled DSP to a Calypso Coral mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Stippled Roses Thanks 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Stippled Roses Dies I cut the leaves from a panel of Lost Lagoon and the flowers from a panel of Petal Pink. On a panel of Softly Stippled DSP I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Stippled Roses Cling Stamp Set in Pebbled Path Ink. I adhered the sentiment to a Calypso Coral mat using Glue Dots..

Stampin' Up! Stippled Roses Thanks 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the layered sentiment to the card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered the leaves between the sentiment DSP and the mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the flowers to the leaves using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Opaque Faceted Gems to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Stippled Roses Thanks 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Softly Sophisticated stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on a panel of Basic White. I colored the small rose stamp from the Stippled Roses stamp set using Lost Lagoon and Petal Pink Stampin’ Write Markers. I gave the stamp a little huff and stamped the small rose image on the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat then to the inside of the Calypso Coral card base.

Stampin' Up! Stippled Roses Thanks 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose image from the Stippled Roses stamp set on the envelope front, coloring it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Softly Stippled DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Meandering Thanks

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week is going well.

I have a super quick card for you today where the embossing folder is doing all the work with the DSP. 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! Hope You Know Thanks 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Cling Stamp Set along with the Layered Floral 3D Embossing Folder, Meandering Meadow 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Thoughtful Expressions Dies for my card today.

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

I started by embossing a Meandering Meadow DSP card front using the Layered Floral EF. I adhered the embossed panel to a Highland Heather mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Blueberry Bushel card base using Stampin’ Seal.

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

I added some Balmy Blue Ink to a panel of Basic White using a Blending Brush. I stamped the sentiment from the Hope You Know stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink over the inked panel. I cut the sentiment out using the 2nd largest Thoughtful Expressions Dies.

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

I added a piece of Balmy Blue/White 1/2″ Variegated Ribbon to the back of the sentiment using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Purple Fine Shimmer Gems to the card front.

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

On a panel of Basic White, I added some Balmy Blue Ink using a Blending Bursh. I stamped the sentiment from the Hope You Know stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink over the inked area. I adhered a strip of Meandering Meadow DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Highland Heather mat then to the inside of the Blueberry Bushel card base.

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

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sentiment from Hope You Know stamp set in Highland Heather Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a strip of the Meandering Meadow DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the 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.

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:   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.
