Stampin’ Up! Otterly Amazing Panels

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off well. I have one of my least favorite appointments today. I have to go once a year to a retina specialist. 27 years ago, at a regular eye appointment, my Dr found that I had detached retinas in both eyes. I had gone partially blind and didn’t even know it. I had to have surgery to have them repaired, and this was before laser surgery was a thing. They were able to repair the tears but not my blindness. I am so grateful that he found it or I would have gone completely blind. So, every year I have to go to make sure everything is still intact.

Today’s the day you can finally order the new Online Exclusive products, YAY!!! Today’s card uses some of the Online Exclusive products. I’m loving this new DSP. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora Postage

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. Well, today is the last day of our vacation and it’s also my 36th wedding anniversary. We’ll be flying home late tonight, so we’ll have the whole day to wonder around Disney Springs doing some shopping and grab a bite to eat. The end of vacation is always bittersweet for me. I hate for it to end, but at the same time I can’t wait to get home to my pups and my normal routine. We hopped around to 3 parks yesterday. by the end of the day my feet were killing me. We started in Magic Kingdom (which surprisingly wasn’t crowded at all). Next, we headed over to Hollywood Studios and ended the day in Epcot. It was a very full day with LOTS of walking and fun.

Today’s card is the last one of my One Sheet Wonder where I took a piece of 6 X 6 DSP and cut it up to make 4 cards. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora Bundle along with the Regal Winter Designer Series Paper, Perennial Postage Dies, 1 3/4″ Circle Punch and Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Cling Stamp Set for today’s card.

Stampin’ Up! Splendid Autumn Expressions

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all enjoying the weekend. I can’t believe this is the last full weekend of August. the summer flew right by.

Today’s card was another oops from our mystery stamping a couple weeks ago. I refused to waste perfectly good DSP, so I made it work. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Splendid Autumn Expressions 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Autumn Expressions Bundle along with the Splendid Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Splendid Autumn Expressions 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Cut a panel of Splendid Autumn DSP in half diagonally. Adhere the panels of Splendid Autumn DSP to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal.

Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Expressions Cling Stamp Set on the bottom of the Basic White mat in Cajun Craze Ink. Adhere the layered panel to a Cajun Craze card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Cut a leaf out using the Autumn Expressions Dies from a panel of Cajun Craze. Adhere the leaf to the card front using a Glue Dot. Tie a double bow using the Natural Tones Linen Thread (available Sept 4th) and adhere it to the leaf stem using a Glue Dot. Add a few Faux Glass Dots (available Sept 4th) to the card front.

On the inside, stamp the sentiment from Autumn Expressions stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink on a panel of Basic White. Cut 2 more leave using the Autumn Expressions Dies from a panel of Cajun Craze. Adhere the leaves to either side of the sentiment using Glue Dots. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Garden Green mat then to the inside of the Cajun Craze card base.

September-December 2024 Mini Catalog Paper and Ribbon Shares Open for Ordering

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on September 4th and I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of September 9. Wouldn’t you love to have all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers in the Stampin’ Up! September-December 2024 Mini Catalog?  What is a Paper Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers from the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!  If you were to purchase all of the DSP in the new Catalog, it would cost you over $135.00 plus shipping and if you were to purchase all the ribbon it would cost you over $60.00.

New Designer Series Paper Share – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail Shipping

How my shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Designer Series Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ X 6″ pieces (or 6″ X 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list.  I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag with labels listing the NameItem # and Colors in the pack and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!  

New Designer Series Paper Share – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail shipping

In all, you’ll receive 61 – 6” X 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!

Double DSP Share – $42.00 + $9.00 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, I’m offering those too!  I’ll cut the 12″ X 12″ designer paper sheets into 6″ X 12″ so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet and you’ll get double sheets of the 6″ X 6″ since they’re already precut.

New Ribbon Share – $17.00 plus $9.00 Priority Mail Shipping

All ribbons will come individually wrapped and labeled with the name and number of the product. Please note that ribbons are being divided differently, you will be getting one fourth of a roll of each of the Ribbons.
