Stampin’ Up! Cup Of Tea Sneak Peek Video Tutorial for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
4

Good Friday morning my stamping friends welcome to my fun fold Friday. How are you all doing today? Are you ready for the weekend? I’ll be working just Saturday this weekend, they gave me off Sunday, YAY!!! My catalogs should be here today, YAY!! I will get them packed up and shipped out just as soon as I can. Luckily my post office is open until 7pm, so I should be able to get them out today. If you are a customer of mine, be watching your mail in the next week.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday using all new products from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. 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’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Cup of Tea Bundle along with the Tea Boutique 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today. All the items used are in the new 2022-2023 Annual Catalog and will be available on May 3, 2022.

I started by scoring and folding a panel of Orchis Oasis cardstock as listed below. I adhered 2 panels of the teapot design from the Tea Boutique DSP to Parakeet Party mats and then to the Orchid Oasis card front.

Using my Teacup Dies, I cut the solid teacup from a panel of Orchid Oasis cardstock. I cut the details teacup from a panel of Parakeet Party cardstock. I stamped the teabag tag image from the Stampin’ Up! Cup Of Tea Photopolymer Stamp Set on a panel of Basic White cardstock in Parakeet Party Ink and the sentiment in Orchis Oasis Ink. I cut the tag out using my Teacup Dies. I adhered a small piece of the Orchid Oasis 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon to the back of the teacup and to the tag using a Glue Dot. You can’t see it until the last picture, but I stamped the teabag tag twice and adhered them together so it would have a back and front. I added a 2021-2023 In-Color Jewel to the teabag tag.

I adhered 2 smaller panels of Tea Boutique DSP to the sides of a Parakeet Party card base. I adhered the folded card base to the Parakeet Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I adhered 2 panels of the Tea Boutique DSP to Parakeet Party mats and then to the inside side panels of the card base. I stamped the sentiment from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored it using my Orchid Oasis and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Parakeet Party mat and then to the inside of the Orchis Oasis card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the teabag tag in Parakeet Party Ink and the sentiment on the tag in Orchid Oasis Ink. I colored the teacup in using my Orchid Oasis and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Tea Boutique DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Maybe this suite or bundle is on your shopping list? How about the new cardstock colors? I’d be more than happy to help you out with getting them. If you need a catalog, please contact me and I will get one in the mail to you ASAP.

Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness Sneak Peek

Posted on by
6

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I had my OnTour event yesterday and it was fun seeing some of the new products being used. I can’t wait for mine to arrive. I’ll be at work all day today having fun petting puppies and giving them treats.

I have a sneak peek for you today. I received a stamp set for attending OnTour and I couldn’t wait to play with it. I made a clean and simple card using just Stamps, Ink and Paper (along with a little embellishment). I also did the masking technique. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness Photopolymer Stamp Set for my CAS card today.

I started by cutting a Post-It Note using the 2nd smallest hexagon die from the Beautiful Shapes Dies. I adhered the hexagon Post-It Note to the center of a Basic White card front. Using my Blending Brush, I added Blushing Bride Ink

I stamped the leaf image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade Ink on either side of the hexagon mask. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set on the leaf images in Misty Moonlight Ink.

I removed the hexagon Post-It and stamped the sentiment from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. I added a few Blushing Bride Adhesive-Backed Hexagons to the card front. I adhered the card front to a Just Jade mat and then to a Misty Moonlight mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Blushing Bride card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set over the leaf image in Misty Moonlight Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the inside of the Blushing Bride card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral images from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade and Misty Moonlight Inks on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my CAS card and might just have this set on your shopping list. I’ll be making more with it very soon. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! New Shipping Fees Beginning April 1

I want to let you know about a change to Stampin’ Up!’s shipping and handling pricing.  Starting April 1, the minimum shipping charge will increase by $1.00, from $6.95 to $7.95—or by one percentage point, from 10% to 11% of the total order amount—whichever is greater.

If you ever use the expedited shipping options, those fees are going up a bit too.  Here are the new fees for expedited shipping:

  • Next Day Upgrade: $38.00 USD ($3.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
  • 2nd Day Upgrade: $23.00 USD ($3.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
  • 3 Day Shipping Upgrade: $15.00 USD ($5.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
  • The expedited shipping option rates above are calculated in addition to the standard shipping rate (e.g., the next day shipping option would cost $7.95 USD or 11%—whichever is greater—plus $38.00 USD)

I want to make sure you’re aware of this change, as it impacts both you and me.  Stampin’ Up! has worked to keep the increase as minimal as possible so they can continue bringing you the unique, high-quality, and coordinated paper crafting products that you love.

Stampin’ Up! Waves of Inspiration Sneak Peek for Fun Fold Friday with Video Tutorial

Posted on by
6

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I have off tomorrow so I finally get to go to my great nephew’s basketball game. Sunday I’ll be at work all day and we have our monthly team meeting which I’m hoping to sign into while working.

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’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Waves of Inspiration Bundle (available March 1), along with the Stampin’ Up! Gentle Waves Cling Stamp Set and the Waves of The Ocean Designer Series Paper (available March 1), for my fun fold card today.

I started by scoring and folding the 2 card bases as listed in the measurements below. I adhered panels of the Waves of The Ocean DSP to the front of the larger card base and to the inside of the large card base. I adhered the smaller card base to the center back of the large card base first using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I folded the card and adhered the front of the smaller card base to the front of the large card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

This is how the large and small Z-Fold card bases will look adhered together.

I adhered a panel of the Waves of The Ocean DSP to the front of the smaller card base. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the Gentle Waves stamp in Coastal Cabana Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Waves of Inspiration Stamp Set in Pacific Point Ink.

On a small panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the pelican image from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the image out using my Waves Dies. I colored the image using my Crumb Cake, Smoky Slate and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the image to the sentiment panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment panel to a Pacific Point mat and then to the front of the smaller card base so that it is hanging off the right edge. I added a few Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the wave image from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set in Pacific Point Ink, stamping off twice on scrap paper, on a Basic Whtie panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set in Pacific Point Ink over the wave. I stamped the bird image from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to the inside of the small card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the pelican and bird images from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it using my Crumb Cake, Smoky Slate and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the Gentle Waves stamp on the bottom of the envelope front in Coastal Cabana Ink. I adhered a panel of Waves of The Ocean DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post. I’d love to see your take on the card.

Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Hello for The Card Concepts

Posted on by
2

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already and on our way to the weekend. I hope you are starting to make some plans.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Fresh New Year.  Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Bundle along with the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper for my Clean & Layered card today. I was inspired by the beautiful roses in the photo along with the colors.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge #166.  How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by adhering a panel of the Pattern Party DSP to a Basic White Thick card base.

From a panel of Flirty Flamingo and Petal Pink cardstock, I cut a detailed and solid flower using my Ranunculus Dies. I adhered them together using a tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the flower to the card front.

From a panel of Basic White cardstock I cut the largest circle from my Layering Circles Dies. I stamped the rose image and sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the images using my Ranunculus Dies. I colored the rose image in using my Flirty Flamingo and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Markers. I embossed the large circle using my Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. I cut the largest scalloped circle using my Layering Circles Dies from a panel of the Brushed Metallic cardstock. I adhered the embossed circle to the gold circle using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a piece of the Petal Pink 5/8″ Organdy Striped Ribbon to the circle then the flower over it using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered circle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment to the bottom of the circle using a Glue Dot and Stampin’ Dimensional. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. This set is a Sale-a-bration item and can be earned FREE with a qualifying order. I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel and colored it in using my Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Petal Pink mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image in using my Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Pattern Party DSP to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Amazing Silhouettes CAS Birthday

Posted on by
2

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. I hope you all had a wonderful long weekend and are ready to take on a new year.

Today I have a sneak peek of a couple new sets for you using just Stamp, Ink and Paper. One you can buy and one you can earn for FREE. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Amazing Silhouettes Cling Stamp Set, which will be available for purchase starting tomorrow January 4th. I also used the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set, which is a FREE Sale-a-bration item you can earn starting tomorrow January 4th.

I started by using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool to make the background panel of Misty Moonlight cardstock. I put the cardstock in on an angle and using my Stylus, I scored the panel of cardstock every 1/2″. I turned the cardstock and scored again to make the diamond embossed panel, scoring every 1/2″. I flipped the cardstock so the raised side was up and adhered it to a Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the butterfly silhouette image from the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the bottom of the panel.

I adhered the artwork to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the butterfly silhouette image from the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set next to the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the butterfly silhouette image from the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the 2020-2022 In-Color DSP to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Queen Anne’s Lace Thank You

Posted on by
4

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? Hope you are enjoying your long weekend. For me, it’s the beginning of the month which means I have to go into work to do the bills. Not sure if I’m going to have to work at the register in between or not. We’re having a bit of a Covid outbreak in the store this past week, so I’ve been scrambling to get all the time filled in so that we have all the cashiers we need.

Today I have a mix of old and new for my card. I used a set from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog and an Embossing Folder from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the gorgeous Stampin’ Up! Queen Anne’s Lace Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the new Gingham Embossing Folder (available January 4, 2022), for my card today.

I started by stamping the stem image from the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on a Basic White card front. I stamped the floral image from the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the stem. I stamped the sentiment from the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink next to the floral image.

I adhered the card front to a Soft Sea Foam mat and then to a Basic White mat. I wrapped a piece of the new Petal Pink 1/8″ Cotton Ribbon from the Cotton Ribbon Combo Pack (available January 4, 2022) and tied a bow.

I embossed a panel of Soft Sea Foam cardstock using the new Gingham Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Soft Sea Foam card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Champagne Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the artwork.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on a Basic Whtie panel. I stamped the floral image from the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set on the side of the panel the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Sea Foam mat and then to the inside of the Soft Sea Foam card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set on the envelope front the same as I did for the card. I embossed a panel of Soft Sea Foam cardstock using the Gingham Embossing Folder and adhered it to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
4

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Happy New Year’s Eve!!! Does anyone have any plans for tonight or tomorrow? It’ll be a quiet night at my house.

I used a set today from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. Sometimes I forget about the annual catalog when the new catalogs are available. Here’s my card for today,

I used the Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Cling Stamp Set along with the Expressions In Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Artistically Inked stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the bottom of a Pale Papaya card front. I stamped the small floral image from the Artistically Inked stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink around the sentiment. I embossed the panel using the new Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder (available January 4, 2022).

I took a panel of Expressions In Ink DSP and scored, cut & folded it as in the diagram below. I adhered the cut & folded panel to the Pale Papaya card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue along the top edge, left side and the small right side.

I wrapped a piece of the Old Olive/Pretty Peacock 3/8″ Reversible Ribbon around the top of the panel and tied a small bow. I adhered the card front to a Pale Papaya card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Gilded Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Artistically Inked stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the small flower image from the Artistically Inked stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink on either side of the sentiment. I stamped the leaf images in Old Olive Ink on the flowers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pale Papaya mat and then to the inside of the Pale Papaya card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the small flower image from the Artistically Inked stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink on the envelope front and the leaves in Old Olive Ink. I adhered a panel of Expressions In Ink DSP to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance for the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog Blog Hop

Posted on by
8

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to our January-June 2022 Mini Catalog Blog Hop. If you’ve hopped over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by. We thought this would be a great way for you to see some of the beautiful products that will be available coming up Mini Catalog starting on January 4, 2022. We each got to pick a stamp set, bundle or suite that we wanted to feature. I hope you enjoy seeing everyone’s beautiful projects. Here’s mine using a new bundle from the Mini Catalog along with some of the gorgeous new Designer Series Paper.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Bundle along with the Heart and Home Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by stamping the rose image and the small floral image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set. I colored the stamps using my Fresh Freesia, Just Jade and Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Write Markers. I cut the images out using my Ranunculus Dies. I also cut a flower using one of the Ranunculus Dies from a panel of Pale Papaya cardstock. I adhered the die cut images on a Heart & Home Doilie using Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals

I adhered a panel of the Heart & Home DSP to a Basic Gray card base. On a strip of Fresh Freesia 2021-2023 In-Color Shimmer Vellum I stamped the postage image in Basic Gray Ink, stamping off once. I stamped the sentiment from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the shimmer vellum using Stampin’ Seal just where the doily was going to be adhered.

I adhered the artwork to the shimmer vellum using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Pale Papaya 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon and adhered it with a Glue Dot to the bottom of the flowers. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set on the bottom of the panel coloring it in the same with my Stampin’ Write Markers, as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Gray mat and then to the inside of the Basic Gray card base.

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

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through all our projects today.

Stampin’ Up! Special Moment CAS Sneak Peek

Posted on by
8

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Was everyone able to visit with family and friends for Christmas. I worked yesterday and it was like watching paint dry. It always amazes me with retail how it’s busy, busy, busy then it just dies.

I have a clean and simple card today using all Sale-a-bration items. Do you know that Sale-a-bration starts in just 8 days? I’m so excited!!! I can’t wait to get my hands on more of the free items. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper for my card today. Both of these items are free with a qualifying order during Sale-a-bration

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Evening Evergreen cardstock. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I punched the sentiment out using my Label Me Fancy Punch and punched the slits on either side of the punched sentiment.

I threaded a piece of the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Chevron Ribbon through the punch and wrapped it around a panel of Daffodil Afternoon DSP adhering it on the back using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the panel to a Flirty Flaming card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added some Garden Gems (only available for 1 more week) to the sentiment and the flower centers.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I adhered a strip of the Daffodil Daydream DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Evening Evergreen mat and then to the inside of the Flirty Flamingo card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the daffodil image from the Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the throat of the flower using my Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to the envelope flap. I realized after I adhered it, that I used the wrong DSP oops.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my CAS card. Items will be available with a qualifying order starting on January 4, 2022. Get those shopping lists ready! Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Awesome Otter for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
4

Good Friday morning my stamping friends Merry Christmas Eve and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Will you be spending time with friends or family tomorrow? We’ll be spending the day relaxing just my husband, daughter and me. My son and his girlfriend will be going to her family’s house. My niece and her family will be going to her husband’s family like they always do. So, our plan is to relax, watch Christmas movies, maybe stamp a little and just enjoy the day.

Today I have my simple go to fun fold card, another Z fold using some new product coming in the January-February Sale-a-bration catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Awesome Otter Cling Stamp Set along with the Simply Marbleous Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by scoring and folding a Misty Moonlight card base at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″. I folded the card base in half first and then folded the front back along the 2 3/4″ score line.

I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous DSP to a Balmy Blue mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the otter image from the Awesome Otter stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Balmy Blue, Calypso Coral and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image our using my Layering Diorama Dies. I cut the next size larger Layering Diorama Die from a panel of Balmy Blue cardstock and adhered the artwork to it using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals only on the left half of the panel. I added a few of the new Pebbles Enamel Shapes on the bottom of the artwork.

On the inside I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous DSP to a Balmy Blue mat and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base. I stamped the sentiment from the Awesome Otter stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped another otter image from the Awesome Otter stamp set on the bottom of the panel and colored it in using my Balmy Blue and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Balmy Blue mat and then to the inside left of the card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the otter image from the Awesome Otter stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it using my Balmy Blue and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. The items I used for my card today will be available starting January 4, 2022. Both the DSP and the stamp set are free with qualifying orders. Happy Stamping!!
