Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend. We’re also a little bit closer to spring!!

I have a pretty simple card for you today using the beautiful Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Sale-a-bration Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper along with the Amazing Thanks Dies for my card today.

My design in from Sunday Stamps Sketch Challenge #276. I love cards that are off set like this, and it pushes me outside of my comfort zone. I’m a straight on symmetrical kind of person.

I started by embossing a Very Vanilla card front using the Gingham Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Very Vanilla Thick card base.

I cut 2 panels of Daffodil Afternoon DSP using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered the 2 panels together on an angle using Stampin’ Seal then adhered them to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Amazing Thanks Dies I cut the solid thanks from a panel of Flirty Flamingo cardstock and the detailed thanks from a panel of Mossy Meadow cardstock. I adhered the 2 die cuts together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a piece of the White 3/4″ Frayed Ribbon to the card front using a little Stampin’ Seal to hold it in place. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals on the top of the die cut only. I added a few Crushed Curry Playing with Patterns Resin Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I adhered a strip of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Very Vanilla mat and then to the inside of the Very Vanilla Thick card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Daffodil Afternoon 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!!

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 my blog. This week we have a Sketch Challenge.  Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this week’s Sketch.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Flowing Flowers Cling Stamp Set along with the beautiful Sale-a-bration, Simply Marbleous 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Here’s our sketch for this week.

My colors are from Just Us Girls Color Week Challenge #615.

I started by adhering a panel of Simply Marbleous DSP to a Smoky Slate card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Flowing Flowers stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink. I stamped the large flower image from the Flowing Flowers stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink around the sentiment. I stamped the small floral image from the Flowing Flowers stamp set in Smoky slate Ink as a fill.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Silver Foil mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Sale-a-bration, Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Smoky Slate Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large flower image from the Flowing Flowers stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink on the top and bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Balmy Blue mat and then to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic Whie Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Flowing Flowers stamp set in Balmy Blue and Smoky Slate Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Simply Marbleous 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 all our projects today.

Product List

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I had to work all day yesterday to come home to my husband undecorating the house. My plan was to do it today, but he got a head start so I’m not complaining. I thought I was going to get to come home from work to relax and do some stamping, but instead I was packing up Christmas and cleaning. It’s just about done, now I have to jump up in the attic to put away all the boxes. I have a certain way (my OCD strikes again) that I put the boxes so that I know where everything is. Also, I’m the shortest one in the house and I don’t hit my head nearly as much as everyone else. After I’m done with that, I have my monthly team meeting, which I always look forward to. That’s when I’ll get to relax and maybe stamp for a while.

To kick off the new January-June 2022 Mini Catalog last week I offered DOUBLE CREATIVE STAMPING DESIGNS REWARDS. This will end tomorrow at 11:00 pm ET. If you haven’t gotten your order in and you want to earn Double Rewards, you have until tomorrow evening. Don’t miss out on getting to your $40 in free product quicker.

How My Rewards Work:

• For each $50 that you order from my online store (before Tax, S & H) and when you add my current Host Code, you will earn 2 Rewards.  Orders of $49.99 or below DO NOT earn any rewards.
• $50+ = 2 Rewards, $100+ = 4 Rewards, $150+ = 6 Rewards etc.
• When you have earned 8 Rewards you will get a FREE product order valued up to $40.00, your choice and mailed directly to you!
• You also earn my monthly Online Class Tutorial with projects that are exclusive to my classes!
• For any order $50 or more you will also receive 1 free gift from me valued up to $10.

Update to Stampin’ Up!’s Backorder Policy Beginning December 1st

Stampin’ Up! provided us with the following update related to their backorder policy:

As you may have heard reported in the news, unprecedented shipping and logistics issues have resulted in a global supply chain crisis. This is affecting businesses world-wide and Stampin’ Up! is no exception. Due to extreme difficulties caused by these issues, starting 1 December 2021, Stampin’ Up! will no longer take orders for products that are not in stock.

In other words, Stampin’ Up! will no longer accept backorders. This change will help to reduce frustrations from unpredictable product availability and allow you to order products that will be delivered right away, rather than products that may not be delivered for months.

If you’d ever like to know if a product is available, please check the online store Here.

The online store is a great resource to browse products, determine availability, and place orders for in-stock items with me.

Thank you to all those that sent me birthday cards in the mail and sent me tons of birthday wishes. Last week was my birthday and I was overwhelmed this year with cards, flowers and gifts. It was so much fun opening all my cards from all my talented team members and friends. A couple days before my birthday I went into work and my desk was all decorated with crape paper, flowers and a balloon. A couple of my cashiers thought it would be fun to decorate my desk for me. That day they surprised me with a delicious cake too. Then on my birthday I went in to more flowers and gifts galore on my desk. That afternoon my husband thought it would be fun to tune into my Facebook live video with his coworkers and they were all wishing me a happy birthday while I was live. I’ve always kept my birthday to myself, but I have to admit, it was a fun day. I thought I would share some of the gorgeous cards that I received.

This beautiful card is from my amazing friend and team leader Amy Koenders. Love how the leaves are in the 3 metallic colors.

This gorgeous fun fold card is from my fun and energetic friend and upline Jaimie Babarczy. LOVE this DSP and the fun fold.

This beautiful card is from my team member Barb Ross. The pretty flowers are from the rainbow glimmer paper and it’s more gorgeous in person

This pretty blue butterfly card is from my friend and team member Christian Rizzo. I just love butterflies

This beautiful card is from my friend and team member Karen Finkle. Love this design

This beautiful card is from my team member Lori Callies. Love this cake image and colors. It’s so beautifully colored too.

This amazing fun fold is from my friend and team member Rosie Kean. Love this fold and I’m going to have to try doing this for one of my Facebook lives.

This beautiful card is a sneak peek from the upcoming mini catalog made by my friend and team member Marilyn Hoseit.

This beautiful card is from my friend and team member Susan Kuenzel. LOVE this design and that beautiful DSP.

This stunning card is from my friend and team member Shirley Gentry. That DSP is so realistic and those leaves are just gorgeous.

This adorable fun card is from my friend and team member Dee. I just love that little frog

This beautiful card is made by my best friend Barbara Dalessio. We made this card at one of my card classes using my absolutely favorite set.

I hope you enjoyed seeing all the beautiful cards from my friends and team members as much as I enjoyed receiving them. I am part of an awesome and fun team and I’d love to have you join us. These are the kind of things we do, make and send cards to each other, along with stamping together and right now we are even having an ornament exchange. If you are interested in joining us now is the perfect time. See the joining special Stampin’ Up! has going on right now until November 30th below.

Happy Stamping, Karen!

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? After OnStage @ Home Thursday, Friday and Saturday, I had to work on Sunday. It was chilly here on Sunday, I think winter might be coming, though it is suppose to be in the 60’s this week.

Today’s card is another one that we made during our OnStage @ Home event Saturday. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Bundle along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by stamping the floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Cling Stamp Set in Cinnamon Cider Ink randomly on the front of a Cinnamon Cider card base.

On a panel of Shimmery White cardstock I stamped the smaller floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. Using my Water Painter, I pulled some of the ink spreading on the flowers and leaves. I adhered the image to a panel of Heart & Home DSP using Stampin’ Seal and then to the Cinnamon Cider card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

From panels of Cinnamon Cider, Fresh Freesia and Garden Green cardstock, I cut some of the dies from the Flowers of Home Dies. On a strip of Shimmer White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the artwork using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the die cut pieces under the sentiment .

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Cinnamon Cider Ink and used my Water Painter to pull the color again. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the inside of the Cinnamon Cider card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Heart & Home DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. The items I used today will be available for purchase on January 4, 2022 from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. Happy Stamping!!

Product List

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Hope your weekend is starting off good. I’m at my OnStage @ Home today all day.

Today’s card is one that we made at our meeting on Tuesday. My upline is doing Mystery Stamping with us each month. It’s a lot of fun and hard at the same time. Jaimie sends us just the measurements we will need and the rest is a surprise. Since we don’t know the design at all it’s hard to pick the colors and stamp set we want to use. I actually didn’t like the shape of my 1st card I made, so I had to remake it. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season Bundle, the Stampin’ Up! Christmas To Remember Cling Stamp Set along with the Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by making a mask from a sheet of copy paper. I cut the largest circle from the Layering Circle Dies and placed it over a panel of Basic White cardstock. Using the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season Photopolymer Stamp Set I stamped the pine boughs in Evening Evergreen, the leaf image in Soft Succulent, the stems and berries in Soft Suede and Real Red Inks randomly around inside the circle.

I adhered a panel of the Painted Christmas DSP to an Evening Evergreen card base. I adhered a smaller panel of the Painted Christmas DSP on an angle to the card front. I adhered the Basic White artwork panel to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals straight. I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas to Remember stamp set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Real Red cardstock. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using my Seasonal Labels Dies.

I adhered a piece of the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon to the artwork and adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Real Red Wonderful Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas to Remember stamp set in Evening Evergreen on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the pine boughs, leaf image and stems & berries from the Christmas Season stamp set the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Real Red mat and then to the inside of the Evening Evergreen card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the pine boughs, leaf image and berries from the Christmas Season stamp set on the envelope front in the same colors I used on the card front. I adhered a panel of the Painted 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. Happy Stamping!!
