This is our sketch for this week.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood In Pink

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. Well, the month is just about over and so is Sale-a-bration. I hope you’ve gotten all the free goodies that you were wanting. We actually had spring like weather here in NJ yesterday and we’re expecting the same today with rain. I’m done with the cold, I’m ready for the warm weather to get here so I can start fixing my gardens up. How about you?

Today’s card is the last one that I made using Sale-a-bration product. I also used some new Online Exclusive products that will be available starting on March 5th. If you like pink, then this card is definitely for you. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made today’s card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Hreee’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood in Pink 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Magnolia Mood Bundle that will be available starting March 5th for my card today along with the Sale-a-bration Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper that will be going away tomorrow.

Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood in Pink 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting the detailed magnolia using the Magnolia Mood Dies from a panel of Basic White. I adhered the die cut to a Flight & Airy DSP card front using dots of Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood in Pink 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the large magnolia image from the Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood Cling Stamp Set in Gray Granite Ink. I colored the image using Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the Magnolia Mood Dies. I adhered a piece of Bubble Bath ribbon from the 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack in a Z on the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the large magnolia to the card front on top of the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood in Pink 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Magnolia Mood stamp set in Gray Granite Ink. I fussy cut the sentiment using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Festive Pearls to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood in Pink 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Magnolia Mood stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the large magnolia image from the Magnolia Mood stamp set in Gray Granite Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Gray Granite mat then to the inside of the Bubble Bath card base.

Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions with Flight & Airy

Good snowy Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the long holiday weekend. I woke up this morning to at least 7″ of snow and it’s still coming down. I heard it was going to snow, but lately the weatherman hasn’t gotten the weather correct, so I was in disbelief. I LOVE when it snows and looking outside at the beautiful blanket of white. I especially love when I get to stay inside and look at it all day, but I’ll be at work all day and I’m guessing it’s going to be busy with all those people who suddenly don’t have shovels, want to buy the snowblowers and need salt. Do you have any plans in the works? Who’s lucky enough to have a long weekend for Presidents day?

Wit the beautiful blanket of snow, I have a quick and easy springy card for you using some of the Sale-a-bration DSP. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions Bundle along with the Layered Floral 3D Embossing Folder and Sale-a-bration Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions CAS 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions Cling Stamp Set in Boho Blue Ink on the bottom of a Basic White card front. I embossed the top section of the card front using the Layered Floral EF.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a strip of Flight & Airy DSP to the embossed panel using Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Boho Blue card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Flight & Airy DSP, I cut the bird image using the Thoughtful Expressions Dies. Using the next size larger Thoughtful Expressions Dies, I cut a panel of Boho Blue. I adhered the die cut DSP to the die cut Boho Blue panel using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Glossy Dots Assortment to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Thoughtful Expressions stamp set in Boho Blue Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Flight & Airy DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Boho Blue mat then to the inside of the Boho Blue card base.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions CAS 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of Flight & Airy DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

January-April 2024 Mini Catalog Paper Shares Ordering Is Open

Do you want all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers and pretty Ribbon in the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog but can’t afford everything?  I’m doing a Designer Series Paper Share and a Ribbon Share! What is a Paper Share and a Ribbon Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers and the Ribbon from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Minil Catalog.  If you were to purchase all of the DSP and Ribbon in the new Mini Catalog, it would cost you over $141.00 plus shipping.

New Designer Series Paper Share – $15.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail Shipping

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Mini Catalog and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on January 4th. 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 January 15th.

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!  Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!

New Designer Series Paper Share – $15.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail shipping

You will receive one 6×6 sheet of each design from the following DSP packs (the number after the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):

Double DSP Share – $30 + $8.50 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″ × 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.

As a Thank you gift for joining in on my paper share, I will be including a sampling of some of the new Sale-a-bration DSP that will be available with qualifying orders. I believe there are 5 different DSPs in the Sale-a-bration catalog. I’m not sure yet which ones I’ll be including, it might be 1, 3 or all 5.

New Ribbon Share – $10.00 plus $8.50 Priority Mail Shipping

Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings Smile

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? I hope your weekend plans are working out. It’s supposed to be a little nicer here in NJ today. I’m off and I’ll be attending our monthly meeting via zoom.

Today’s card was one I made a week ago Saturday for World Card Making Day. I attended the virtual Stampin’ Up! event and this was one of the sets they used. I kind of did my own thing with it. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made the card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings WCMD 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings Bundle along with the Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Banner Pick A Punch for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings WCMD 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP to an Azure Afternoon mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Lemon Lolly card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings WCMD 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings Photopolymer Stamp Set in Blueberry Bushel Ink. I punched the sentiment out using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch. I only needed the top of the circle, so I didn’t punch the whole circle. I adhered the half circle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings WCMD 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a scored strip of Azure Afternoon cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink. I cut both ends of the strip using the Banner Pick A Punch. I folded the strip on the score lines and adhered it to my card front over the bottom of the half circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Tinsel Gems Four Pack to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings WCMD 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the sun ray image from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Lemon Lolly Ink above the sentiment. I adhred teh Basic White panel to an Azure Afternoon mat then to the inside of the Lemon Lolly card base.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings WCMD 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sun ray image from the Circle Sayings tsamp set in Lemon Lolly Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP to the envleope flap.

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! In The Moment for The Card Concepts.

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We are already halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend.

We’re back with inspiration challenges from The Card Concepts. We will be doing month-long challenges now, so you have all month to enter multiple times.  The inspiration photo #200 is Autumn Chill. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! In The Moments Autumn 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

My card today features the Stampin’ Up! In The Moment Cling Stamp Set along with the All About Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies and the Stampin’ Up! Bird’s Eye View Photopolymer Stamp Set (for the envelope). I was inspired by the different elements in the photo, the wood background, the sweater/blanket, the book and coffee cup for my Clean & Layered card.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 200.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! In The Moments Autumn 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of All About Autumn DSP to a Pebbled Path mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Pebbled Path card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered 2 more panel of All About Autumn DSP to Pebbled path mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the 2 layered panels to the card front using Multipurpose Liqiud Glue.

Stampin' Up! In The Moments Autumn 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the woman reading a book image from In The Moment stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Boho Blue, Copper
Clay, Ivory, Moody Mauve, Mossy Meadow, Pebbled Path, Pecan Pie and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the die cut artwork to a Pebbled Path mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! In The Moments Autumn 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a thin strip of Very Vanilla I stamped the sentiment from In The Moment stamp set in Pebbled path Ink. I cut the 2 ends into a banner using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment below the artwork using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few 2023-2025 In-Color Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! In The Moments Autumn 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from In The Moment stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I adhered a strip of All About Autumn DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Pebbled Path mat then to the inside of the Pebbled Path card base.

Stampin' Up! In The Moments Autumn 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the book image from the Bird’s Eye View stamp set on the envelope front In Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Copper Clay, Mossy Meadow, Pebbled Path and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of All About Autumn DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Monochromatic

Good Monday morning stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Were you able to enjoy some time outside? I was in all weekend, between working, the storms and the heat & humidity, I wanted nothing to do with outside. I did have to take Coraline for multiple walks though. For some reason when I’m home, she seems to need me to take her out walking every couple hours. When she’s home with my husband and daughter she sleeps all day.

I have a quick card for you today that could be a wedding card, an anniversary card, a birthday card or anything else you want to celebrate with someone. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves Monochromatic 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Gorgeous Garden Dies, 2″ Circle Punch and Bough Punch for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves Monochromatic 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting a Basic White card front using the Gorgeous Garden Dies.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves Monochromatic 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the die cut card front to a Basic Black mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves Monochromatic 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On panels of Basic White, I stamped 2 leaf images and the flower image from the Layering Leaves stamp set 2 times each in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the images out using the Bough Punch. I stamped the sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I cut the sentiment out using the 2″ Circle Punch. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the leaves and flowers under the sentiment using Multipurpose Liquid Gue. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves Monochromatic 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Layereing Leaves stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered the 2nd set of leaves and flowers to the bottom of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Layering Leaves Monochromatic 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf and flower images from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and flap.

Stampin’ Up! Ocean Front for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already. I hope you are all having a good week.

It’s time for an inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We have a new fun challenge this week.  The inspiration photo #198 is Summertime Fun. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Oceanfront Framed 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Ocean Front Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay Cling Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings Photopolymer Stamp Set for my Clean and Layered card today. I was inspired by the overall theme, beach and birds in the photo.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 198.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Oceanfront Framed 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping a Basic White card front using the Oceanfront stamp set. I stamped the center water image first using Tahitian Tide Ink. I then stamped the sky image using Tahitian Tide Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. Last I stamped the sand image on the bottom in Crumb Cake Ink. I stamped the detailed sand image from the Oceanfront stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink over the already stamped sand image. I stamped the tall grass image from the Oceanfront stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the side. I stamped the cattails image from the Oceanfront stamp set in Wild Wheat Ink next to the tall grass. I adhered the artwork to the center front of a Tahitian Tide card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Oceanfront Framed 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Pecan Pie cardstock using the Online Exclusive Radiating Stitches Dies. I cut the center out of the panel using the 4th largest Deckled Rectangle Dies to make a frame. I adhered the frame over the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Oceanfront Framed 4
 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sand piper bird image from the Seaside Bay stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I cut the birds out using the Seaside Bay Dies. I adhered one of the birds using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and the other two using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Circle Sayings stamp set on a panel of Basic White. I fussy cut the sentiment using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the top of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2023-2025 In-Color Dots to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the sand image from the Oceanfront stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the details sand image in Crumb Cake Ink. I stamped the tall grass image from the Oceanfront stamp set on either side of the panel in Old Olive Ink. I stamped the cattails image from the Oceanfront stamp set in Wild Wheat Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Tahitian Tide card base.

Stampin' Up! Oceanfront Framed 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sand image from the Oceanfront stamp set on the bottom of the envelope front and flap. I stamped the tall grass image in Old Olive Ink, the cattails image in Wild Wheat Ink and the sand pipers in Pecan Pie Ink.
