Stampin’ Up! Curvy Christmas Pines Sneak Peek

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. Happy November. Hope everyone remembered to turn your clocks back. How was everyone’s Halloween? We had more trick or treaters that normal, I think we had 10 this year. It was perfect Halloween weather here, a beautiful crisp Autumn day. I’ll be at work most of today since it’s the 1st of the month, but I think I may take tomorrow off as a treat to myself.

I have another sneak peek for you today using a stamp set coming November 3rd. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Curvy Christmas Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Curvy Dies for today’s card.

On the 4 ¼” X 5 ½” panel of Whisper White cardstock stamped the pine bough image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink. I cut the bottom of the panel using the die with the dots from the Curvy Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink matching the curve on the bottom of the panel. Using my Paper Trimmer I cut the panel down to 3″ X 5 1/4″

On one of Whisper White cardstock panels I adhered a 1 1/4″ panel of the Classic Christmas 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to the bottom using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a 2 3/4″ panel of the Classic Christmas DSP to the top using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the curved panel to the top of the DSP using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the bow image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the image in using my Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the bow using my Paper Snips. I cut 4 sprigs from the Curvy Dies out of a panel of Just Jade cardstock. I adhered the sprigs to the card front using Glue Dots and adhered the bow on top of the sprigs using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Thick Whisper White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Cherry Cobbler ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the tree image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink along the bottom front of the envelope.

I adhered a panel of the Classic Christmas 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 items used today will be available to you in 2 short days on November 3rd. Stay tuned for something extra from me starting on November 3rd too. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Sneak Peek Thank You

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How has everyone’s week started off? I hope you are all having a productive one. We’re having a rainy week here in NJ, Autumn is in full bloom here also. Leaves have changed and are starting to cover the ground. Most of the trees that is. We have one in our front yard and one in our backyard that haven’t even begun to show signs of changing color let alone drop their leaves. They usually wait till we get all the raking done and the leaves are picked up to drop their leaves. It’s almost like they are watching us and laughing at us.

I have another sneak peek for you to day at the stamp set coming in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Bundle for you again. I’m really loving this set. My colors were inspired by Fab Friday Challenge #200. Here are their colors. I know the colors probably scream Halloween to you, but I saw them as flowers and dragonflies.

I started by adhering a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper to an Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of 1/2″ Whisper White Faux Linen Ribbon from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack around the card front and tied a bow. I adhered the card front to a Garden Green card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the wild flower image from the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Cling Stamp Set (available January 5, 2021), in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the image in using my Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the 2nd largest square from the Stitched Shapes Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a panel of Whisper White cardstock and colored the wings in using my Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Dragonflies Punch and brushed the wings using my Clear Wink of Stella. I adhered the dragonfly to the bottom of the floral image using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and cut it into a banner using my Banner Pick A Punch. I adhered the banner to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Pumpkin Pie Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on either side of the panel and colored them in using my Highland Heather and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Granny Apple Green mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Garden Green 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 and colored them in using my Highland Heather and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I adhered a panel of the In Good Taste DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card. The stamp set and punch used will be available to you January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. The DSP used is available now at a discounted price, but only until Saturday October 31, 2020.

Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Is anyone doing anything fun this weekend? I’ll be working both days again. Ever since my daughter said that she wanted to go apple picking I have been working extra.

Today’s card I made Wednesday on my Facebook Live Video. If you were able to join me live or you watched the replay, thank you very much.  If you’d like to view my video either on Facebook or YouTube, the links are below. Here’s my card for today.

The Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Bundle will be available for purchase in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. The Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Bundle will be available November 3rd.

I started by scoring and folded a Misty Moonlight card base at 1 1/2″ & 4 1/4″. I folded the card base in half and then folded the 1 1/2″ fold back. I adhered the larger of the 3 Dandy Garden 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper panels to the front fold of the card base using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the other 2 panels of the Dandy Garden DSP to the inside of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On the inside Whisper White panel, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Cling Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink. I stamped the tiny dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink above and below the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the floral image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored some of the image in using my Calypso Coral, Misty Moonlight and Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the 2nd largest Stitched Nested Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals, hanging off the left side. On another panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and stamped the wing fill color in Misty Moonlight Ink, stamping off once. I adhered the dragonfly to the artwork using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I cut a panel of Whisper White cardstock using my Curvy Dies then stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Photopolymer Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals on the right side and a Glue Dot on the artwork. I added a couple of the adorable Ladybug Trinkets to the sentiment and the card base using Glue Dots.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the tiny dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink along the bottom front of the envelope.

I adhered another design from the Dandy Garden 6 X 6 DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card.  The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. Items used won’t be available until January 5th, but you can use any DSP and stamp set to recreate this card.  You can watch it on my Facebook page Here.

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

Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Sneak Peek

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Are you ready for a new week? I’ve got another busy working week ahead.

I have a sneak peek for you today. Are you ready? I’ve told you about our OnStage events that we go to twice a year. Well this years is going to be a little different because of Covid. We’ll be attending it virtually. Since I was registered for OnStage I got to order a bundle that won’t be available until the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. It’s called the Dandy Garden Project Collection. I ordered mine last week and got to play with it this weekend. Here’s my 1st card I made with it.

I’ll try to give you a few more sneak peeks this week.

I started by adhering a panel of the Dandy Garden 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper (available January 5, 2021) to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a panel of Bumblebee cardstock I stamped the tiny dragonfly image from the Stampin’ Up Dragonfly Garden Cling Stamp Set in Bumblebee Ink multiple times.

I adhered the Bumblebee panel to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered a Mossy Meadow panel to the center of the Bumblebee panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I embossed a small panel of Whisper White cardstock using my Dandelion 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Dandy Garden DSP mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered it to the top of the Mossy Meadow panel on an angle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Smoky Slate cardstock I stamped one of the dragonfly images from the
Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink and cut the image out using my Dragonflies Punch. I brushed the wings of the dragonfly using Clear Wink of Stella and adhered it to the embossed panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a small strip of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink. I cut the strip into a banner using my Banner Pick A Punch and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Ladybug Trinket to the banner using a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the tiny dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Bumblebee Ink above and below the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Bumblebee mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the tiny dragonfly image from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Bumblebee Ink across the bottom front of the envelope.

I adhered a panel of the Dandy Garden 6 X 6 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 will be available starting January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. I’ll try to have a few more sneak peeks for you in the next couple weeks. Happy Stamping!!

I have a sneak peek for you today from the up coming January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. This bundle will be available to you starting November 3rd. This is one you might want to get your hands on. I went for a drive yesterday to my team leaders and the leaves were all changing and it was such a gorgeous drive. The only thing that would have made it better is if it wasn’t pouring rain. That inspired me to make today’s card. Here’s my card for today.

My sketch for today is from Freshly Made Sketches #457. Here is their sketch.

I played along with The Spot Challenge #132. Here is their theme.

I also played along with CAS on Friday Challenge #191. Their Theme is ‘PLAID’.

I started by adhering a panel of Plaid Tidings 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Pretty Peacock card base using Stampin’ Seal.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the curvy leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the leaves in using my Cajun Craze, Mango Melody and Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the artwork on top of the plaid panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Pretty Peacock cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Quite Curvy stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using my Curvy Dies by lining up the top of the sentiment with the curve of the die and cutting. I then flipped the die and cut below the sentiment lining up the dies curve with the top curve the best that I could. I trimmed the sentiment down and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Pearls to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the curvy leaf image from the Quite Curvy stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink towards the top of a Whisper White panel and colored the leaves in using my Cajun Craze, Mango Melody and Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Quite Curvy stamp set below the leaves, matching the curve, in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pretty Peacock card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I adhered a strip of Plaid Tidings DSP to the front of the envelope.

I adhered a panel of Plaid Tidings DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. The Quite Curvy Bundle will be available for you to purchase November 3rd along with the Curvy Christmas and the Classic Christmas 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper. The Quite Curvy Bundle will be carrying over to the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog, but the Curvy Christmas and DSP will only be available until January 4th. I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy the gorgeous Autumn weather. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Curvy Christmas Sneak Peek

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. Happy Columbus Day!! How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun? I’ve got a busy couple weeks ahead of me with work. I think in the next 2 1/2 weeks I have 2 day’s off. I did have yesterday off and was able to squeeze in a little craft time once I got my yard work done. I rushed in the morning to get things done since they said it was going to rain. It never started till later on at night.

For today I have a sneak peek for you. Next month we have a new collection coming out called Curvy Celebration. Part of it is for Christmas and will only be available until January 4th. The bundle part of the collection will be available through June. It will be in the new January-June 2021 Mini Catalog, YAY!! Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #456. Here is their sketch.

I started by adhering a panel of the upcoming Classic Christmas 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Sahara Sand card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the pine tree image from the Stampin’ Up! Curvy Christmas Photopolymer Stamp Set (available 11-3-20) in Shaded Spruce Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink below the tree image. Using one of the Curvy Dies, I cut below the sentiment lining up the curve in the die with the curve in the sentiment. I adhered the artwork to a Shaded Spruce panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered another strip of the Classic Christmas DSP to the card front using Stampin’ Seal and adhered the artwork overlapping the strip using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the bow image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on a panel of Whisper White cardstock and colored the image in using my Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the bow using my Paper Snips. I cut 2 sprigs from the Curvy Dies out of a panel of Shaded Spruce cardstock. I snipped the sprigs to the size I wanted and adhered them to the corner of the artwork using Glue Dots, I adhered the bow on top of the sprigs using a Stampin’ Dimensional.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the pine tree image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on the bottom of the panel and the star image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink above the tree image. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Shaded Spruce mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Sahara Sand card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the pine tree image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on the bottom of the envelope front. I stamped the star image from the Curvy Christmas stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink above the tree image.

I adhered a panel of the Classic Christmas 6 X 6 DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Double Time Stamping

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends.  How is everyone’s weekend going?  I have the next few days off from work, so I’m doing a happy dance.  Plans are to get my daughter’s room painted today and tomorrow, then Tuesday put everything back in place.  We’ll see what happens.

I have a clean and simple card for you today doing the Double Time Technique.  All I used was Stamps, Ink and Paper, just the basics.  Here’s my card for today.

I lightly adhered a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock to a Very Vanilla card base making sure it was centered.  I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cajun Craze Ink in the center of the panel.

I first stamped all the outlines of the leaves from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Shaded Spruce Inks randomly around the panel.  I stamped all the fill images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in the leaves, all stamped off once, in Bumblebee, Just Jade and Real Red Inks.  I stamped the wheat image from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink.

I carefully removed the Very Vanilla panel and adhered it to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered the matted panel, making sure to line up all the leaves and stems, to the Very Vanilla card base using Stampin’ Seal.

On the inside is stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the outline leave images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Shaded Spruce Inks.  I stamped the leaf fill images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set, all stamped off once, in Bumblebee, Just Jade and Real Red Inks.  I stamped the wheat image from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Very Vanilla card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope.  I stamped the outline leaf images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Shaded Spruce Inks on the envelope front and flap.  I stamped the leaf fill images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set, all stamped off once, in Bumblebee, Just Jade and Real Red Inks.  I stamped the wheat image from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on 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! Autumn Goodness for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends.  How was everyone’s week?  The weekend is here, ready or not.  I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for this week to be over.  I’m starting to feel like I live at work.  Has anyone made any plans for the weekend?  I’m working tomorrow, but I’m suppose to have off on Sunday, YAY!!!

For today I have another new fun fold for you.  It’s a bridge fold card and it is super easy.  Here’s my card for today.

I played along with the Stampin’ Up! Only Challenge #254.  The theme is ‘Coloring‘.

I started by scoring and folding an 8 1/4″ X 4 1/4″ Mint Macaron card base at 1 3/8″, 2 3/4″, 5 1/2″ & 6 7/8″. I adhered 4 panels of Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper to 4 Early Espresso mats using Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered them to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

This is not a real good photo, but I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Goodness Photopolymer Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink on a Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the pumpkin image from the Autumn Goodness stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the bottom of the Very Vanilla panel.  I colored the image in using my Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron, Old Olive, Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to an Early Espresso mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered a panel of Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP bridge to an Early Espresso mat using Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered the bridge to the card front using Tear & Tape.  I first adhered the left side then I folded the card flat and adhered the right side.

I stamped the wheelbarrow image from the Autumn Goodness stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock.  I cut the image out using my Autumn Wheelbarrow Dies.  I cut the wheel from the Autumn Wheelbarrow Dies out of a piece of the new Brushed Gold Foil Sheet.  I adhered the wheel to the wheelbarrow using a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional.  On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the floral image from the Autumn Goodness stamp set in Early Espresso Ink.  I colored the image in using my Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron, Old Olive and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I cut the floral image our using my Autumn Wheelbarrow Dies and adhered it to the top of the wheelbarrow using Glue Dots.  I adhered the wheelbarrow to the right side of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the back I stamped the cornstalk image from the Autumn Goodness stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the bottom of a Very Vanilla panel and colored it in using my Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I stamped the sentiment from the Autumn Goodness stamp set in Early Espresso Ink towards the top of the Very Vanilla panel.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to an Early Espresso mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the back of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope.  I stamped the pumpkin image from the Autumn Goodness stamp set in Early Espresso Ink.  I colored the image in using my Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron, Old Olive, Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I adhered a panel of Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

Just so you can see, this card folds flat and fits perfectly in the medium envelope.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and will give it a try.  The items for this card will be available for you to purchase on Tuesday August 4th.  Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Life is Beautiful Sneak Peek

Good Monday morning my stamping friends.  How was everyone’s weekend?  Hope you were able to spend some time doing something fun.

I have another sneak peek for you today from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.  Here’s my card.

I started by adhering a panel of the Plaid Tidings 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Pumpkin Pie card base using Stampin’ Seal.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the tree trunk image from the Stampin’ Up! Life is Beautiful Photopolymer Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink.  I stamped the leaf image from the Life is Beautiful stamp set multiple times on the tree in Pumpkin Pie Ink.  I cut the image out using the Celebration Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Life is Beautiful stamp set in Pumpkin Pie Ink.  I adhered a piece of Bumblebee  2020-2022 In-Color 1/4″ Ribbon on the artwork using Glue Dots and adhered the sentiment over the top using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added a few of the Iridescent Pearls to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Goodness Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pumpkin Pie Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel.  I stamped the leaf image from the Life is Beautiful stamp set on the bottom of the panel.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Pumpkin Pie mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pumpkin Pie card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the tree from the Life is Beautiful stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on the envelope front.  I stamped the leaf image from the Life is Beautiful stamp set in Pumpkin Pie Ink.  I adhered a panel of Plaid Tidings DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today.  I hope you liked my card.  The Items I used today will be available for purchase starting August 4th, that’s just a week from tomorrow.  Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Sneak Peek

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers.  How is everyone’s weekend going?  I got some yard work done yesterday first thing in the morning.  By 11am I was done and exhausted.  This humidity we have here wears me out when I’m working in the yard.  I have to work today straight through until next Sunday.  I’m hoping next week I won’t have to work as much, we’ll see what happens.

For today I have a sneak peek for you of a new bundle coming in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.  Items I used will be available on August 4th, YAY!!!  There are some really awesome things in this new catalog.  Here’s my card for today.

I started by adhering a panel of Just Jade 2020-2022 In-Color 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Soft Suede mat using Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered the card front to a Soft Suede card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Bumblebee cardstock I stamped 8 oak leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Photopolymer Stamp Set in Bumblebee Ink.  On a panel of Cherry Cobbler cardstock I stamped 8 maple leaves from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink.  On a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock I stamped 8 acorns from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink and stamped the tops of the acorns from the Beautiful Autumn in Soft Suede Ink.  I punched all the images out using the Autumn Punch Pack.  Using the largest circle and the 3rd largest circle from the Layering Circles Dies, I cut a panel of Soft Suede cardstock to make the wreath base.

I ran some Stampin’ Seal around the wreath base and adhered the leaves and acorns on it the way I liked them.  I had to add a few Glue Dots to hold some of the leaves in place.  I adhered the wreath to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  On a thin strip of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Soft Suede Ink and adhered it to the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots.  I tied a bow using the new 1/8″ Copper Grosgrain Ribbon, from the Basket Weave & Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack, leaving the tails long.  I adhered the bow to the wreath using a Glue Dot and adhered 2 leaves to the tails of the bow using Glue Dots.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Soft Suede Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the leaves and acorn images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Soft Suede Ink along the side of the panel.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Soft Suede card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope.  I stamped the leaves and acorn images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Soft Suede Inks along the bottom of the envelope front.  I adhered a panel of Just Jade 2020-2022 In-Color 6 X 6 DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card.  Supplies for this will be available on August 4th.  Hope you all have a great rest of your weekend.  Happy Stamping!!
