Stampin’ Up! Amazing Silhouettes for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. I hope everyone is doing well today. If you are hopping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have a Sketch Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s Sketch.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Amazing Silhouettes Cling Stamp Set along with the Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our sketch for this week.

I started by adhering a panel of Design A Daydream DSP to a Blackberry Bliss card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the butterfly image from Amazing Silhouettes stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink. I embossed the panel using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the Amazing Thanks Dies, I cut the detailed sentiment from a panel of Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I cut the mat for the sentiment from a panel of Fresh Freesia cardstock. I adhered the detailed sentiment to the mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Glue Dots. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Cottage Rose Cling Stamp Set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the butterfly image from the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set in Fresh Freesia Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat and then to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base.

to complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the butterfly image from the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set on the envelope front in Blackberry Bliss Ink. I adhered a panel of Design A Daydream 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 and see everyone’s projects today.

Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have something fun in the works this weekend.

I played with a few different things for today’s card, stamps, ink, paper, dies, punch, embossing. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness Bundle along with the Fabulous Frames Dies and the Timeworn Type 3e Embossing Folder for my card today.

My colors are from the Color Throwdown Challenge #695.

I started by stamped the leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Highland Heather Ink over the leaf image. I cut the image out using the largest die from the Fabulous Frames Dies making sure the floral image was towards the top. I embossed the floral image panel using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Very Vanilla Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

From a panel of Brushed Metallic cardstock, I cut the corner die from the Fabulous Frames Dies. I adhered the corners to the Very Vanilla frame using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the frame to the Very Vanilla Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the outline bottle image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink. I stamped the bottle fill image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. I cut the bottle out using the Vintage Bottle Punch. I adhered the bottle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Brushed Brass Butterflies to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set in Highland Heather Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set on the bottom of the panel the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the Very Vanilla Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set on the envelope front the same as I did for the card. 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 card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Cup of Tea for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. I hope everyone is doing well today. If you are hopping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have a Color Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s Colors.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Cup of Tea Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments Bundle and the Tea Boutique 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

These are our colors for this week, the 2022-2024 In-Colors.

I started by adhering the largest panel of Tea Boutique DSP to a Starry Sky card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the longer thin panel of Tea Boutique DSP to the medium rectangle panel of Tea Boutique DSP using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the smaller rectangle panel of Tea Boutique DSP to the top of the layered panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I wrapped a piece of Starry Sky 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon around the layered panel and tied a bow. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I cut the 4th largest Layering Circles Die from a panel of Basic White cardstock. I embossed the panel using my Hive 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a scalloped circle which I cut with the coordinating Layering Circle Dies from a panel of Tahitian Tide cardstock. I adhered the layered circles to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Cup of Tea Photopolymer Stamp Set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Tahitian Tide cardstock. I sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder from the Basic Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using the Teacup Dies. I adhered the teacup to the center of the layered circles using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut the hearts using the Teacup Dies from a small panel of Sweet Sorbet cardstock. I adhered the hearts to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Starry Sky Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Sentiment Silhouettes Dies. I stamped the sentiment in the same place on a panel of Sweet Sorbet cardstock in Starry Sky Ink. On the bottom of the Basic White panel, I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using my Parakeet Party and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to the Sweet Sorbet mat, lining up the sentiment with the negative die cut area. I adhered the layered panel to the inside of the Starry Sky card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the teacup and teabag tag images from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the teacup in using my Parakeet Party and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Cup of Tea stamp set in the tag in Starry Sky Ink. I drew a line using my Starry Sky Stampin’ Write Marker from the cup to the tag. I adhered a panel of Tea Boutique 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 and see everyone’s projects today.

Stampin’ Up! Fresh Cut Flowers Thank You

Good Monday morning my stamping friends and Happy Memorial Day. I hope you can enjoy your day with family and friends getting together for a picnic or some fun activities. Please take a moment to remember all those who have served for us.

Today I have a Clean and Simple card for you. This card is perfect for that beginner stamper. If you ever wanted to give stamping a try, this is a great card to start with, a little stamping, a little coloring and you’re done. I could have dressed it up, but I thought I would stick to the basics, Stamps, Ink and Paper. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Fresh Cut Flowers Cling Stamp Set, the Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Cling Stamp Set.

I stamped the large flower image from the Fresh Cut Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White card front.

I colored the image in using my Daffodil Delight, Orchid Oasis, Parakeet Party, Sweet Sorbet and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the card front. I adhered the card front to a Thick Basic White card base using Stampin’ Seal

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of a Basic White panel. I stamped the silhouette floral image from the Fresh Cut Flowers on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base using Stampin’ Seal

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small floral image from the Fresh Cut Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images in using my Orchid Oasis, Parakeet Party, Sweet Sorbet and Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the 2022-2024 In-Color 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 will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Cottage Rose Go To Greeting

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans for this long weekend. I’m off today, YAY!! I do have to go in tomorrow for a couple hours in the office, but then I have off on Monday.

Yesterday I had some time to get to my card table for a bit. I was playing around with 1 main stamp set trying to decide on which color I liked best. Needless to say, I liked them both so today and tomorrow’s card are using the flowers I made. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Cottage Rose Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set and the soon to be retired Heart & Home Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Heart & Home DSP to a Fresh Freesia card base. I adhered a smaller panel of Heart & Home DSP to a Fresh Freesia mat and then to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the larger rose image from the Stampin’ Up! Cottage Rose Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using my Fresh Freesia and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Cottage Flowers Dies. From a panel of Pale Papaya cardstock I cut 3 of the sprig dies using my Cottage Flowers Dies. I adhered the rose to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sprigs under the rose image using Glue Dots.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I fussy cut the sentiment using my Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Pearl Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the medium rose image from the Cottage Rose stamp set next to the sentiment in Fresh Freesia Ink. I adhered a strip of Heart & Home DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pale Papaya mat and then to the inside of the Fresh Freesia card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Heart & Home 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 and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Lighthouse Point for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends.  I hope everyone is having a wonderful week. Did you ever have one of those days where you can’t get out of your own way? That was my day yesterday. Because of that, I had a very productive day. I had a hair appointment in the morning. I followed that by going grocery shopping (which I hate to do anymore). When I got home, I had no crafting mojo, so I went outside to weed 1 of my flower gardens. That led to weeding 3 of them, cutting some tree branches and cleaning up around my yard. Before I knew it my son was leaving for work, which was 3pm. I finished up outside and went in to do laundry. I finally was able to sit down to work on my blog when I got a text that my daughter was on the train on her way home from school. I picked her up and then it was off to Costco. Needless to say, I never got to my craft table, but I got a lot done and by the end of the day I was content that I did something on my day off.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Red, White & Blue. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Lighthouse Point Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Ocean Front Photopolymer Stamp Set, the Stampin’ Up! On The Horizon Cling Stamp Set and the Stamin’ Up! Gentle Waves Cling Stamp Set for my Clean Graphic Card. I was inspired by the colors from the inspiration photo.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge #176.  How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by using my Water Painter with Tahitian Tide Ink and coloring the top of a Basic White panel. I stamped the bottom of the panel using the Gentle Waves stamp with Starry Sky Ink. I stamped a strip of Sahara Sand cardstock using the sand image from the Ocean Front stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink. I tore the panel to give it the sand image. I adhered the strip of Sahara Sand cardstock to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I cut the panel using my Deckled Rectangle Die. I adhered the panel to a Starry Sky card base. I stamped the bird image from the On The Horizon stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel.

Using my Lighthouse Dies, I cut the solid lighthouse from a panel of Sweet Sorbet cardstock. I cut the detailed lighthouse from a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the lighthouse top from a panel of Basic Black cardstock and the rail from a scrap of Silver Foil Paper. I cut the top of the solid Sweet Sorbet lighthouse with my Paper Snips. I adhered the lighthouse top to the solid panel. I adhered the detailed lighthouse over the Sweet Sorbet lighthouse using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Silver Foil rail to the top of the detailed panel. I adhered the lighthouse to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Lighthouse Point Photopolymer Stamp Set in Starry Sky Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Lighthouse Dies. I tied a Carrick Bend Knot using my Crumb Cake Bakers Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack. I adhered the knot to the sentiment and adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Pebbles Enamel Shapes around the lighthouse and Faux Sea Glass Shapes along the sand.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Lighthouse Point stamp set in Starry Sky Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the lighthouse image from the Lighthouse Point stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the detailed lighthouse image over the solid image in Sweet Sorbet Ink. I stamped the splotch image from the Lighthouse Point stamp set in Tahitian Tide Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Sweet Sorbet mat and then to the inside of the Starry Sky card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the lighthouse image from the Lighthouse Point stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the 2022-2024 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper 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! Cup Of Tea Thanks

Good Monday morning my stamping friends and Happy National World Turtle Day. My daughter LOVES turtles so I know this day LOL. How was everyone’s weekend? I enjoyed my day off yesterday. After doing a little cleaning and weeding I got to spend some time at my craft table. I could weed every day and those weeds just don’t go away. My neighbors probably think I’m crazy out there weeding at 6am. I bring my dog out to the backyard and while I’m waiting for her, I pull some weeds. I have multiple flower gardens in my backyard and there always seems to be weeds in them no matter how much I try. Once everything really starts to bloom, I’m hoping you won’t really be able to see the weeds.

I have a quick card today using one of my favorite sets from the new 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Cup Of Tea Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Tea Boutique 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and the Amazing Thanks Dies for my card today.

My design is from the Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge #389.

I started by adhering a panel of the Tea Boutique DSP to a Petal Pink card base. I adhered a panel of Calypso Coral cardstock to the card front using Stampin’ Seal

I cut a panel of Basic White cardstock into a banner using my Paper Snips. I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on the banner. I stamped the leaf image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the top of the cup. I colored the teacup using my Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the banner to the card front. I added a few Fun Flowers Resin Shapes to the stamped leaf image.

Using my Amazing Thanks Dies I cut the sentiment from a panel of Calypso Coral cardstock. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on a Basic White Panel. I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Gray Granite Ink. I stamped the leaf image on top of the teacup in Soft Sea Foam Ink. I colored the image using my Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a strip of the Tea Boutique DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Calypso Coral mat and then to the inside of the Petal Pink 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 Gray Granite Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the leaf image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the cup. I colored the image using my Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam 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. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Cottage Rose Thank You

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you’ll be staying cool today. It’s supposed to hit near 100 here in central NJ today, but it’ll cool down Sunday to the mid 90’s. What happen to spring?

For today’s card I let the Designer Series Paper and Embossing Folder do all the work for me. I added a sentiment, and it was done. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Cottage Rose Cling Stamp Set along with the Pretty Prints Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by embossing a panel of Pretty Prints DSP using the Painted Posies 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic White mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Blackberry Bliss card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the large rose image from the Cottage Rose stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink, stamping off 3 times on scrap paper. I stamped the sentiment from the Cottage Rose stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink over the rose image. I cut the sentiment out using my Designer Tags Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

using my Designer Tags Dies, I cut out 2 of the sprigs and the butterfly from a panel of Rose Gold Specialty Paper. I adhered the sprigs behind the tag using a tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the die-cut butterfly to the top of the panel using Glue Dots.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large rose image from the Cottage Rose stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blackberry Bliss mat and then to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large rose image from the Cottage Rose stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Pretty Prints 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! Bouquet of Thanks for Fun Fold Friday with Video Tutorial

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 hope you are making some fun plans. It’s supposed to be a hot one here, last I heard was the upper 90’s.

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 Stampin’ Up! Bouquet of Thanks Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments Photopolymer Stamp Set and the 2022-2024 In-Color 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my easel card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the 2022-2024 In-Color DSP to a Sweet Sorbet mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I scored & folded the Crumb Cake card base as listed below. I adhered the smaller panel of Sweet Sorbet cardstock to the top section of the card base front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the bottom section of the card base front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the floral image from the Bouquet of Thanks stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock. I stamped the sentiment banner from the floral image on a panel of Shimmery White cardstock in Soft Suede Ink. I fussy cut the banner using my Paper Snips. I adhered the fussy cut banner to the stamped panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a small panel of Shimmer White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set in Soft Suede Ink. I adhered the sentiment to a Sweet Sorbet mat using Stampin’ Seal.

On the inside I stamped the top of the floral image from the Bouquet of Thanks stamp set in Soft Suede Ink, stamping off twice on scrap paper, on the side of the Shimmery White panel. I adhered the Shimmery White panel to a Sweet Sorbet mat and then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base. I figured out where I wanted to put the small sentiment and adhered it using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flowers from the Bouquet of Thanks stamp set on the envelope front in Soft Suede Ink. I adhered a panel of the 2022-2024 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. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under my post. I’d love to see your take on the card. 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.

Stampin’ Up! Mischievous Mice Thanks

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? It was a rainy one here Saturday but turned out to be pretty nice on Sunday. Yesterday after our team meeting, I finally got some of my Paper Pumpkin kits finished. I’m determined to get myself caught up with all the kits I have and then maybe I can get them done as they come in each month. I was able to finish 3 kits, which was 27 cards. I have one kit sitting on my table all taken apart to finish after work today.

Today’s card uses the basics, Stamps, Ink and Paper. I thought I’d do something simple for a change, lol. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Mischievous Mice Cling Host Stamp Set for my card today.

My design is from Inspire. Create. Challenge #116.

I started by stamping the mouse image from the Mischievous Mice stamp set on a panel of Basic White cardstock in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake, Flirty Flamingo, Gray Granite, Smoky Slate and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I stamped the splatter image from the Stampin’ Up! Color & Contour Photopolymer Stamp Set in So Saffron Ink on the 2 corners of the panel.

I stamped the sentiment from the Mischievous Mice stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink next to the mouse image on the card front. I adhered the card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Mischievous Mice stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the splatter image from the Color & Contour stamp set in So Saffron Ink on the 2 corners of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the mouse image and the sentiment from the Mischievous Mice stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image the same as I did for the card. 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 will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
