Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by
8

Good Thursday morning and Merry Christmas Eve my stamping friends, welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. Is everyone ready for the big day? I’m as ready as I’m going to be this year. If you are hopping over from Akiko, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a sketch challenge. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s awesome projects.
Here is our sketch for this week.

Here’s my card using the sketch.

I used the Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental Bundle for my card today.

I started by coloring a panel of the new True Love Designer Series Paper (coming in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog) using my Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the panel using my Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I adhered a panel of the True Love DSP to a Cherry Cobbler card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the stitched rectangle panel to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Seal.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and cut it out using my Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered a piece of 1/4″ Old Olive Ribbon from the Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo Pack with Glue Dots. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Cherry Cobbler Rhinestones from the Holiday Rhinestones Basic Jewels.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Onate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the flower from the Stampin’ Up! Painted Poppies Cling Stamp Set on the bottom of the panel and colored them in using my Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a strip of the True Love DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Cherry Cobbler card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I adhered a panel of the colored True Love DSP to the envelope front and 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.

WHISPER WHITE CARDSTOCK PRODUCTS- AVAILABLE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

Stampin’ Up! announced this information related to the Whisper White paper products late last evening:

Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.

We know Whisper White has a huge fan base; we’re big fans, too! And we are crushed that it’s going away. Even though this decision was out of our hands, rest assured that we jumped right into action to find the best replacement paper possible. We have dedicated many hours to source and test alternative cardstock options from several suppliers to find the perfect fit that still maintains the Stampin’ Up! quality you know and trust. We are happy to share that we have found a winner for our new cardstock, Basic White!

The quality of our new Basic White was thoroughly tested by our quality assurance and product teams. It also tested very well with demonstrators and concept artists who gave it a huge thumbs up. We believe in the quality of the new Basic White cardstock and we know it will become your new crafting staple!

What does this mean for you?

With Whisper White going out of production, this means a number of Whisper White products will be affected. Below is a list of all products that will be replaced with our new Basic White cardstock. These items are now available while supplies last with an order limit of 2 per item per order.

  • Whisper White 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cardstock (124302) – SOLD OUT

Our new Basic White products will become available to purchase as soon as we have them in stock. This means that some Whisper White and Basic White products may be available at the same time.

Stampin’ Up! Snowman Season Birthday for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
12

Good Friday morning my fellow stampers and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? I can’t believe that Christmas is just 1 week away. I’ve mailed my cards and I’ve got my cookie batters mixed and by the time you read this I will have probably baked off a few of them. Shopping and wrapping is another story. I’ll get it done, I hope.

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 very much. 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 that I made.

I used the Stampin’ Up Snowman Season Photopolymer Stamp Set from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog and the Stampin’ Up! Approaching Perfection Cling Stamp Set from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog coming January 5, 2021. I played along with Cardz 4 Guyz Challenge #260. The theme is ‘Snowman/Men’.

I started by adhering a panel of the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper to a Misty Moonlight mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I wrapped a piece of the Misty Moonlight 1/4″ 2020-2022 In-Color Ribbon around the card front and tied a knot. I added a Glue Dot to hold the knot in place.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the snowman image from the Snowman Season stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink. I colored the nose, scarf and hat in using my Just Jade, Misty Moonlight and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Approaching Perfection stamp set on the top of the panel in Misty Moonlight Ink. I adhered the artwork to a Misty Moonlight mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the overlapping card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added some Adhesive-
Backed Snowflakes where the stamped snowflakes are. I adhered the small card front to the back of the card base, centering in, using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Approaching Perfection stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped another one of the snowman images from the Snowman Season stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, over the small card base tab.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the small snowman image from the Snowman Season stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Snowflake Splendor 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. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

You can also view the video on my YouTube channel Here. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Art Gallery Birthday Sneak Peek

Posted on by
4

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? I finally had time to sit down with write out all my Christmas cards. I was doing it at 1am, but I got them done. Who needs sleep this time of year anyway?

I have a sneak peek for you today from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my cardl

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Art Gallery Photopolymer Stamp Set and the new Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper.

I started by adhering a panel of the new Fine Art Floral DSP to a Merry Merlot card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I embossed a panel of Merry Merlot cardstock using the new Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered a panel of Fine Art Floral DSP to the embossed panel on an angle using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the embossed panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a piece of Fine Art 3/8″ Ribbon to the angled DSP using a little Stampin’ Seal.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the 2-step flower image from the Art Gallery stamp set in Bumblebee Ink. I stamped the detailed image full strength and the fill image stamped off once. I stamped the sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set in Merry Merlot Ink over the flower image then cut the image out using my Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I cut the larger die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies from a panel of Bumblebee cardstock. I adhered the stamped image to the top of the Bumblebee die using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Gilded Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bloom & Grow Photopolymer Stamp Set in Merry Merlot Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the 2-step flower image from the Art Gallery stamp set in Bumblebee Ink. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Bumblebee mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Merry Merlot card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I adhered a strip of Fine Art Floral DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. Products from today’s card will be available starting January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Happy Stamping!!

WHISPER WHITE CARDSTOCK PRODUCTS- AVAILABLE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

Stampin’ Up! announced this information related to the Whisper White paper products late last evening:

Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.

We know Whisper White has a huge fan base; we’re big fans, too! And we are crushed that it’s going away. Even though this decision was out of our hands, rest assured that we jumped right into action to find the best replacement paper possible. We have dedicated many hours to source and test alternative cardstock options from several suppliers to find the perfect fit that still maintains the Stampin’ Up! quality you know and trust. We are happy to share that we have found a winner for our new cardstock, Basic White!

The quality of our new Basic White was thoroughly tested by our quality assurance and product teams. It also tested very well with demonstrators and concept artists who gave it a huge thumbs up. We believe in the quality of the new Basic White cardstock and we know it will become your new crafting staple!

What does this mean for you?

With Whisper White going out of production, this means a number of Whisper White products will be affected. Below is a list of all products that will be replaced with our new Basic White cardstock. These items are now available while supplies last with an order limit of 2 per item per order.

  • Whisper White 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cardstock (124302)
  • Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes (149710)
  • Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes (131527)
  • Whisper White 3″ x 3″ (7.6 x 7.6 cm) Envelopes (145829)
  • Whisper White 8-1/2″ x 11″ Cardstock (100730)
  • Whisper White 8-1/2″ x 11″ Thick Cardstock (140272)
  • Whisper White Medium Envelopes (107301)

Our new Basic White products will become available to purchase as soon as we have them in stock. This means that some Whisper White and Basic White products may be available at the same time. Additionally, due to the nature of sourcing, some Basic White products may not be available before the Whisper White products sell out. Please know that we are working on getting these products available to you as fast as possible.

Stampin’ Up! Simply Succulents Thanks Sneak Peek

Posted on by
4

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Are your decorations up yet? Gifts bought and wrapped? Cards mailed? The holidays are going to be here in a blink of an eye. I’m not ready. I planned on getting my cards done this weekend, that didn’t happen. At least they are made though, so I just have to write my notes and address them.

My card for today was designed by one of my team members Sue Prather. We had our team meeting yesterday and we had 3 presenters with some beautiful cards. I’ll have another to show you later this week. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Simply Succulents Bundle for my card along with many colors.

I started by adhering a panel of the Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper (this is a Sale-A-Bration item that will be available January 5th 2021) to a panel of Whisper White cardstock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I then adhered it to a Blackberry Bliss card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On panels of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the large succulent image and the 2 single images from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Succulents Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. Using the awesome new Blending Brushes coming in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog, I added color. I started with Soft Seafoam, Mint Macaron and Pear Pizzazz, then added a little Highland Heather and Rich Razzleberry. Once I had the color the way I wanted, I cut all the images out using my Potted Succulents Dies. I stamped the flowerpot image from the Simply Succulents stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on a panel of Cajun Craze cardstock and cut the image out using my Potted Succulents Dies. I adhered the flowerpot to the bottom of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the largest succulent to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and the smaller ones on the top using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the new Blackberry Bliss 3/8″ Striped Ribbon (coming January 5, 2021) and adhered it to the flowerpot using a Glue Dot.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Succulents stamp set in Soft Suede Ink and cut it out using my Potted Succulents Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the top of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Succulents stamp set in Soft Suede Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the succulent images from the Simply Succulents stamp set in Mint Macaron, Pear Pizzazz and Soft Seafoam Inks on the top and bottom corners of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Soft Seafoam mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the succulent images from the Simply Succulents stamp set in Mint Macaron and Pear Pizzazz Inks on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Oh So Ombre DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. All products for my card will be available January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog and the DSP will be a free item from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. This is really a beautiful set that you’re going to want. If you are a customer of mine you will be getting you catalogs shortly, I just received them Friday. If you need a demonstrator and would like a catalog, send me an email and I will be sure to get one out to you. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Enjoy The Moment Sneak Peek for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
4

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s week? The weekend is upon us, does anyone have any plans? Besides trying to get my house back in order, I’ll be at work all weekend. We will finally be able to walk on our new floors today, but only with socks, no shoes. I’ll be happy to be able to sleep in my own bed tonight. The hotel was fine, but it’s not home. We probably won’t move our furniture back into the house until next week. My husband has a lot of painting to do now and he has to replace a lot of the molding. We figured it would be a lot easier to do without any furniture in place. I can’t wait till it’s all done and everything can be put back in place.

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 very much. 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. You won’t be able to make the exact card unless you were able to purchase this set already. The stamp set will be available in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog and the DSP I used is a free item from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog. Here’s my card that I made.

For my Fun Fold card I used the Stampin’ Up! Enjoy The Moment Cling Stamp Set that will be available in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog on January 5, 2021. I also used the Flower & Field Designer Series Paper that can be earned free with a qualifying order from Sale-A-Bration starting January 5, 2021.

This is the template for cutting your Drapery Fold card.

I started by cutting and folding the Flower & Field DSP as in the template above. I added a couple Glue Dots in between the folds to hold them in place.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Enjoy The Moment stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I trimmed the folded DSP to 5 1/4″ and adhered it to the Whisper White panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I wrapped a piece of the Just Jade 1/4″ 2020-2022 In-Color Ribbon around the card front and tied a bow. I adhered the card front to a Just Jade card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Misty Moonlight 2020-2022 In-Color Enamel Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Enjoy The Moment stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the flourish image from Enjoy The Moment stamp set in Just Jade Ink, stamping off once, on either side of the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Shaded Spruce mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Just Jade card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the flourish image from the Enjoy The Moment stamp set in Just Jade Ink, stamping off once, across the bottom front of the envelope. I adhered a panel of the Flower & Field 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. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. The stamp set for my card today will be available in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog on January 5, 2021. The DSP can be earned free with a qualifying order from Sale-A-Bration starting January 5, 2021. If you are one of my customers and have placed an order this past year, I will be sending you a catalog as soon as they are available. If you need a catalog and would like me to be your demonstrator, please drop me a line and I will be more that happy to get one out to you as soon as I can. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

You can also view the video on my YouTube channel Here. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Simply Succulents Sneak Peek

Posted on by
6

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun. Other than working, I packed up my living room and took all my pictures down from the hallways and staircases. All my furniture got moved into a POD for a couple weeks now. We’re having our floors refinished, so that means everything had to get packed and we’re moving out for a couple days. I’ll actually be coming home in the mornings to let the workers in and I’ll be staying in my basement for the day with my dog. She gets to come to the hotel to stay with us at night, I just don’t want to leave her there by herself during the day.

For today I have another sneak peek for you of a bundle coming in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Simply Succulents Bundle for my card. My son’s girlfriends birthday is tomorrow and she love her succulents, so when I saw this set I knew I had to buy it to make her a card. I used quite a few colors for my card along with a sneak peek of a Sale-A-Bration item coming soon.

I started by adhering a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper to a Just Jade card base using Stampin’ Seal. I embossed a panel of the Oh So Ombre 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper using the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder. The Oh So Ombre DSP will be a Sale-A-Bration item available in January/February 2021. I adhered the panel to the Just Jade card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Whisper White Cardstock I stamped 3 of the small succulent images, 1 of the larger succulent image, the flower pot image and the sentiment from the Simply Succulents stamp set (available January 5,2021) in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the images in using my Gray Granite, Just Jade, Rococo Rose and Soft Seafoam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using the Potted Succulents Dies (available January 5, 2021). Using the Potted Succulents Dies, I cut one die from a panel of Pear Pizzazz cardstock and two from a panel of Pretty Peacock cardstock.

I adhered the flower pot to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I arranged the succulents the way I wanted them and adhered them using Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment below the flowerpot using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few of the Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to my card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Best Year Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the largest succulent image from the Simply Succulents stamp set in Just Jade Ink, stamping off twice, over the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Rococo Rose mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Just Jade card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the succulent image from the Simply Succulents stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the envelope front and colored them in using my Just Jade and Rococo Rose Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of In Good Taste DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. The Simply Succulent Bundle and Oh So Ombre DSP will be available for you to purchase January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog and the Sale-A-Bration Catalog. If you are one of my customers and have made a purchase this year, I will be sending a catalog out to you as soon as they become available. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Friend Birthday Sneak Peek

Posted on by
4

Good Saturday morning my fellow stampers. How has everyone’s weekend started off? I’ll be at work all day today.

I have 1 more sneak peek card from last weekends OnStage@Home event for you. I can’t believe it’s already been a week since our OnStage@Home event. I’m loving these designs that the demonstrator came up with for these cards. They really showcase the whole suite. Here’s my take on the last design.

This card once again uses the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Bundle. Everyone’s card is a little different depending on which pattern of DSP they chose.

I started by stamping the wildflower image from the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Photopolymer Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink in the center of a Smoky Slate card front. I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the bottom of the panel.

I adhered the 3 panels of Dandy Garden 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper that I chose to the right of the flowers using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of the Mossy Meadow 3/16″ Braided Lined Trim (available January 5,2021) around the card front and tied a bow.

I cut 3 of the small dragonflies out of a panel of Whisper White cardstock using the Dragonflies Punch. I brushed them using my Clear Wink of Stella and adhered them to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Blackberry Bliss card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the wildflower image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on either side of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Smoky Slate mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the wildflower image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Dandy Garden DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. All items used for this card will be available from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog on January 5th, 2021. If you are one of my customers and have placed an order in the past year I will be sending a catalog out to you as soon as I receive them. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Garden Wishes Sneak Peek for my Fun Fold Friday

Posted on by
6

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? I hope you all had a productive one. Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be working all day tomorrow. It’s been a rainy few days here but of course it’s suppose to be sunny tomorrow.

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 very much. 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. You won’t be able to make the exact card unless you were able to purchase these set already. Both stamp sets and the DSP will be available in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s the card that I made.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Garden Wishes Cling Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Cling Stamp Set to make my card today.

I started by lightly adhering a panel of the Dandy Garden 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Bumblebee card base using a tiny amount of Stampin’ Seal just on 2 of the corners to hold it in place. I cut the center out using the 2nd largest die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I set the pieces to the side and adhered the Dandy Garden DSP to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I tied a piece of the Misty Moonlight 2020-2022 In-Color 1/4″ Ribbon around the card front and tied a bow. I added a Glue Dot under the bow to hold it in place.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the dandelion image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I stamped the flower center image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Bumblebee Ink, stamping off once, in the center of the dandelion. I colored the stem and leave in using my Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the 3rd largest die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered the artwork to the Bumblebee mat (which I cut out from the card base earlier), using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered a panel of Dandy Garden DSP to the inner card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue then adhered the matted artwork to it using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a couple of the Ladybug Trinkets to the artwork using Glue Dots.

On the inside Z-Fold card I stamped the wild flower image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Garden Wishes stamp set in the center of the Whisper White panel I stamped the dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on the top and bottom corners of the panel, masking it with a Post-It note so that I didn’t get ink on the side panel. I colored the flowers in using my Calypso Coral and Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the inner card base to a Misty Moonlight mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Bumblebee card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the dandelion image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the flower center image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in bumblebee Ink, stamping off once, in the center of the dandelion. I colored the leaves and stem in using my Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Dandy Garden 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. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. The stamp sets and DSP for my project today will be available in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog on January 5, 2021. If you are one of my customers and have placed an order this past year, I will be sending you a catalog as soon as they are available.

Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Thank You Sneak Peek

Posted on by
6

Good Wednesday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s week going? We’re halfway through and on our way to the weekend. Another month flying by. I was walking home from work the other day and noticed everyone’s leaves raked to the curb waiting to be picked up, except mine. Mine are still green on my tree. I have a purple plum tree in my backyard and it’s still purple full of leaves. Other that pine trees, I have the only trees with leaves that haven’t turned on our block. My trees are definitely laughing at me.

I have sneak peek for you today of another card that we ‘made’ at OnStage@Home this past weekend. This is another one that everyone’s will look different depending on which patterns of the paper everyone chose. Here’s my take on the card.

I played along with Always Fun Challenge #188. Their theme is ‘Thank You’.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Bundle which will be available for purchase January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog.

I started by stamping the small dragonfly cluster image from the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set in Bumblebee Ink along the side of a Whisper White panel. I adhered a panel of Dandy Garden 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper across the center of the panel using Stampin’ Seal.

I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Misty Moonlight Ink. On a panel of Bumblebee cardstock I stamped the wings fill image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Bumblebee Ink twice. From a panel of the Dandy Garden DSP I punched one of the dragonflies out using my Dragonflies Punch and adhered it to the Bumblebee panel, above the stamped wings so that it looked like a shadow, using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered the 2 shorter panels of Dandy Garden DSP to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Bumblebee panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a Ladybug Trinkets to the corner of the Bumblebee panel using a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in the center of a Whisper White panel in Misty Moonlight Ink. I stamped the dragonfly image from Dragonfly Garden stamp set twice on the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Bumblebee mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Bumblebee Ink twice on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Dandy Garden DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. All items used for today’s card, except for the Ornate Thanks stamp set, will be available from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog on January 5, 2021. If you are one of my customers and have placed an order in the past year, I will be sending you the catalog as soon as I get them. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Friend Sneak Peek

Posted on by
6

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I spent 2 1/2 days virtually at my OnStage@Home event. We had a lot of laughs, saw new items coming in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog, Sale-A-Bration Items and a learned a lot. I can’t wait to show you some of the new items coming. I’ll be getting my order either today or tomorrow so hopefully I’ll be able to show you some of them on my Facebook live on Wednesday.

For today I have a card that I made ‘at’ OnStage@Home. We were given card cut measurements and saw how the presenter put it together. I didn’t make mine the exact same way as she made the sample. Everyone’s card will be unique since we were able to choose which designs of the DSP we wanted to use. Here’s one of my cards from OnStage@Home.

My card used the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Bundle that will be available on January 5th 2021.

I started by stamping the cluster of small dragonflies image from the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Cling Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink across a Mossy Meadow card front on a diagonal. I embossed the panel using my Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and adhered the card front to a Mossy Meadow card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Bumblebee Ink twice. I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the top of the Whisper White panel. I adhered a Bumblebee panel to the Mossy Meadow card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered 3 strips of Dandy Garden 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper over the Bumblebee panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered the Whisper White panel to the card front on top of the DSP strips using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped another dragonfly from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on a panel of Whisper White cardstock and punched it out using the Dragonflies Punch. I adhered the dragonfly to the Whisper White panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Ladybug Trinkets to the card front using Glue Dots.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the dragonfly image twice on the panel in Bumblebee Ink. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Bumblebee mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set twice on the envelope front in Bumblebee Ink. I adhered a panel of Dandy Garden DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked the card. The Dragonfly
Garden stamp set, Dragonflies Punch, DSP and Ladybug Trinkets will be available in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog starting January 5, 2021. Happy Stamping!!
