Stampin’ Up! Snowman Season Video Tutorial

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? Were you able to join my team yesterday on our World Card Making Day Facebook live videos? It was so much fun watching and stamping along with my fellow team members.

Today’s card is from the 1st video I did yesterday. If you were able to watch live, thank you so much. If not you can watch the replay on the World Card Making Day Facebook page, my Facebook page of my YouTube Channel. Links are all below. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Mojo Monday Sketch #546. Here is their sketch.

I also played along with Watercooler Wednesday Anything Goes Challenge #291.

I joined in with Jingle Bells Dashing Through The Snow Challenge.

I started by embossing a panel of Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper using the Winter Snow Embossing Folder. I adhered it to a Thich Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Snowman Season Photopolymer Stamp Set in Smoky Slate Ink on the small square panel of Snowflake Splendor DSP. I adhered the 2 rectangle panels and the sentiment panel of Snowflake Splendor DSP to Silver Foil mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted panels to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the snowman image from the Snowman Season stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on a small panel of Whisper White cardstock. I colored the image in using my Highland Heather, Pool Party, Pumpkin Pie and Color Lifter Stampin’ Blends Markers and cut the image out using the 2nd largest circle from the Stitched Shapes Dies. I cut the matching scalloped circle from the Layering Circle Dies from a panel of Silver Foil paper and adhered the artwork to it using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Snowflakes to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Snowman Season stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the snowflake image from the Snowman Season stamp set around the sentiment in Pool Party Ink, stamping off once. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Pool Party mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the snowflake image from the Snowman Season stamp set in Pool Party Ink on the bottom of the envelope.

I adhered a panel of Snowflake Splendor 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 list of supplies are below along with the measurements if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video.  You can watch it on our Inkin’ World Card Making Day Facebook page Here.

Stampin’ Up! Rooted In Nature Peekaboo 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?  Tomorrow is World Card Making Day and our team has a whole day planned out with videos from 9am-9pm, information below about it.

Today’s card is one that I made on Wednesday afternoon on my Facebook Live video.  If you were able to join me or you watched the replay, thank you very much.  If you’d like to view my video either on Facebook or YouTube, the link is below.   My card is actually a peekaboo card and not a folded one today.  Here’s my card.

I started by lightly adhering a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper to a Gray Granite card base using the tiniest amount of Stampin’ Seal.  Using the largest tree die from the Nature’s Roots Dies, I cut the center of the card front.

I removed the DSP from the card base, very carefully not to tear the cardstock.  I stamped the large tree image from the Stampin’ Up! Rooted In Nature Cling Stamp Set in Gray Granite Ink, stamping off once.   I stamped the tree image through the card front so that it was aligned perfectly..

I adhered the DSP back to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut and embossed the smallest leaf from the Nature’s Roots Dies in Bumblebee, Misty Moonlight and Seaside Spray cardstock.  I adhered the leaves to the card front using Glue Dots for the bottom 2 and Stampin’ Dimensionals for the top leaf.  I added a multi-looped bow I made using Linen Thread and Misty Moonlight/Silver Bakers Twine from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Comb Pack, with a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Goodness Photopolymer Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink in the center of the tree.  I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Many Mates Cling Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the bottom of the panel.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Gray Granite card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, making sure the tree lined up with the die cut card front.  I added a couple Bumblebee 2020-2022 In-Color Enamel Dots to the tree and the card front.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the largest leaf image from the Rooted In Nature stamp set on the bottom front of the envelope in Misty Moonlight, Bumblebee and Seaside Spray Inks.  I adhered a panel of In Good Taste 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 list of supplies are below along with the measurements if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video.  You can watch it on my Facebook page Here.

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

Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Wedding for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday.  How was everyone’s week?  We’re upon the weekend and it’s supposed to be another beautiful one here. Love these cool mornings and warmer afternoons.

Today’s fun fold card is one that I made on Wednesday afternoon on my Facebook Live video.  If you were able to join me or you watched the replay, thank you very much.  If you’d like to view my video either on Facebook or YouTube, the link is below.  I needed another wedding card for my boss from my family, here’s what I came up with.   I’m calling it a folded gate fold with a belly band.

I started by scoring and folding my Thick Whisper White card base at 1 1/4″, 3 3/8″, 7 5/8″ & 9 3/4″.  I adhered 4 panels of Peony Garden Designer Series Paper to 4 Gray Granite mats using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered 2 of the matted panels to the outside panels of the card base and 2 to the inside panels of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid glue.

I embossed 2 panels of Gray Granite cardstock using the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder and adhered them to the narrow front panels of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

For the belly band, I adhered a panel of Petal Pink cardstock to a panel of Gray Granite cardstock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I wrapped the belly band around the card and adhered it using Tear & Tape. I wrapped a piece of 1/4″ Gray Granite Shimmer Ribbon around the belly band securing it down with Glue Dots.  On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Cling Stamp Set in Gray Granite Ink.  I stamped one of the leaf images from the Forever Fern stamp set in Soft Seafoam Ink, stamping off once,  on either side of the sentiment.  I cut the sentiment out using the frame die from the Wild Rose Dies.  I cut 2 of the largest fern dies from the Forever Flourishing Dies from a panel of Vellum cardstock and adhered them to the belly band using Glue Dots.  I adhered the die cut sentiment to the belly band using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the sentiment die.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Path of Petals Photopolymer Stamp Set in Gray Granite Ink in the center of a Whisper White Panel.  I stamped the leaf image from the Forever Fern stamp set in Soft Seafoam Ink on the bottom of the panel.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Gray Granite 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 leaf image from the Forever Fern stamp set in Soft Seafoam on the envelope front once full strength and once stamped off.  I adhered a panel of Peony Garden 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 list of supplies are below along with the measurements if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video.  You can watch it on my Facebook page Here.

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

Stampin’ Up! Seasons Greetings In The Pines

Good Saturday morning my fellow stampers.  How is everyone doing today?  The weekend is upon us, does anyone have any plans?  It’s suppose to be like a beautiful fall day here.  I’ll be at work all day, but I do have off tomorrow.

Today’s card is the one I made on Wednesday for my Facebook Live video.  If you were able to watch live or the replay, thank you.   You can also watch it on my YouTube channel.  Here is my card.

My design is from Atlantic Hearts Challenge #386.  Here is their sketch.

I started by embossing a panel of Shaded Spruce cardstock using the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder and adhering it to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut a panel of ‘Tis The Season 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper using the Stitched Rectangle Die.  There wasn’t a die the size I needed, so I ran the die partway through my Stampin’ Cut & Embossing Machine. I moved the die to the size I wanted it matching up the stitches, turned it around and ran it through again only partway.  I adhered the stitched rectangle to a Whisper White mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I cut a panel of Whisper White cardstock Using the Pine Woods Dies and adhered it to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the matted panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! In The Pines Photopolymer Stamp Set in Just Jade Ink on a strip of Whisper White cardstock and went around the edges using my Just Jade Stampin’ Write Marker. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensional and a Glue Dot.  I stamped the pinecone image from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Boughs Cling Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink on a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock twice.  I cut the images out using the coordinating die from the Beautiful Boughs Dies along with the smallest bough die in Just Jade cardstock.  I adhered the pine bough and the pinecones to the Whisper White panel using Glue Dots.  I made a bow using Linen Thread and adhered it  to the pinecones using a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel.  I stamped the pine bough image from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Just Jade Ink, stamping off twice, on the top of the panel.  I stamped the pinecone image from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink, stamping off once, on the top of the panel.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Shaded Spruce 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 pine bough from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the envelope front.  I stamped the pinecone image from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Crumb Cake in on the bough.  I adhered a panel of ‘Tis The Season 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 list of supplies are below along with the measurements if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video.  You can watch it on my Facebook page Here.

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

Stampin’ Up! Nothing’s Better Than Cookies

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends.  How is everyone doing today?  I have the whole weekend off, YAY!!!  I needed off tomorrow for our in person (virtually) team meeting, so I thought I’d give myself today off too.  I have an advantage, I’m the one who makes up the monthly schedule at work so if I need a weekend off I get first dibs.

Today’s card is one I did a video tutorial on Facebook live Wednesday.  I’ve also uploaded it to my YouTube channel so you can view it there also.  Here’s my card.

I started by stamping the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Nothing’s Better Than Photopolymer Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink on a Whisper White panel.  I embossed the panel using my Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a strip of Whisper White cardstock I randomly stamped the outline cookie image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Early Espresso Ink.  I stamped the cookie fill image over the outline image in Crumb Cake Ink, stamping off once.  I randomly stamped the small star image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Real Red Ink around the cookies.  I adhered the artwork to a Crumb Cake mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the Love You More Than Dies I cut the word ‘cookies’ out of a panel of Early Espresso cardstock adhered to a Foam Adhesive Sheet.  I adhered it to the card front  between the 2 sentiments.  I added a few Real Red Wonderful Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Early Espresso Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel.  I stamped the outline cookie image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamps set in Early Espresso Ink on the top and bottom of the panel.  I stamped the cookie fill image in Crumb Cake Ink, stamping off once.  I stamped the star image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Real Red Ink around the cookie images.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Crumb Cake 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 outline cookie image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the envelope front and flap.  I stamped the cookie fill image in Crumb Cake Ink, stamped off once, over the outline image.  I stamped the little star image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Real Red Ink.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and will give it a try.  The list of supplies is below along with the measurements.  If you’d like to stamp along while watching the video, you can watch it on my Facebook page Here.

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

To celebrate my victory of getting over doing Facebook Live videos, I’m giving away a pack of Wonderful Gems to everyone who places a $50 or more order on my Online Store until Monday September 14th. Please remember to use my current Host Code G39RYMEX.  Please note, per the Demonstrator rules from Stampin’ Up!, I am only able to ship Stampin’ Up! merchandise to addresses within the United States.

Stampin’ Up! Tasteful Touches CAS

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends.  How is everyone doing today?  We’re halfway through our week already and on our way to the weekend.  You just have to love these 4 day work weeks.

It’s been taking my a while to make this decision, but I have finally decided to start doing Facebook Live videos.  I’ve done a couple before, but I thought I would give it a shot.  I will be going live today at 4pm.  I’d love feedback from everyone letting me know if this is a good time.  I’ve tried to pick a time that my team members don’t go live, since I like to watch them, and boy was that hard.  If you able to watch that would be awesome, if not, I will be posting the videos with the card on my blog and on my YouTube channel.  You can click on the Facebook icon above and it will take you to my Facebook page.  Fingers crossed all goes well.

To celebrate my victory of getting over doing FaceBook Live videos, I’m giving away a pack of Wonderful Gems to everyone who places an order through my online store of $50 or more from today, September 9th, until Monday September 14th.  This is in addition to my $10 gift of your choice.  Please remember to use my current Host Code G39RYMEX.  Please note, per the Demonstrator rules from Stampin’ Up!, I am only able to ship Stampin’ Up! merchandise to addresses within the United States.  Thanks for your understanding.

For today’s card I have a Clean and Simple one for you.  This is actually the design I am making today live, just a little different.  So if you want to stamp along, the measurements are below.  Here’s my card for today.

I started by stamping a panel of Whisper White cardstock using the flower from the Stampin’ Up! Tasteful Touches Cling Stamp Set randomly around in Misty Moonlight Ink.

I stamped the splatter image from the Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Cling Stamp Set in Just Jade Ink around the flowers.  I adhered the artwork to a Misty Moonlight mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I stamped the sentiment from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper and adhered it to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added a few Misty Moonlight 2020-2022 In-Color Enamel Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel.  I stamped the flower image from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in the top and bottom corner of the panel in Misty Moonlight Ink.  I stamped the splatter image from the Forever Fern stamp set in Just Jade Ink around the flowers.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Misty Moonlight 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 flower image from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the envelope front and the splatter image from the Forever Fern stamp set in Just Jade Ink around the flower.  I adhered a panel of In Good Taste 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! Cup of Christmas Cards

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers.  How was everyone’s weekend?  Were you able to join us for our Facebook live videos?  We all had a lot of fun making them.  I did my first ever video and I have to admit, I had fun with it.  If you were able to watch, thank you very much.

For today I have the 2 cards from the video for you.  Both cards are the same style just different color bases and Designer Series Paper.  My directions are the same for both cards just the different colors.  Here are my cards.

My card played along with the Just Add Ink Challenge #477.  Here is their sketch.

I started by embossing the Cherry Cobbler and Shaded Spruce card fronts using the Winter Knit 3D Embossing Folder.  I adhered the Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper on the Coastal Cabana mat and the Wrapped In Plaid Designer Series Paper on the Gold Foil Sheet using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I adhered the matted DSP to each of the card fronts using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut out Flirty Flamingo, Night of Navy, Real Red and Shaded Spruce cups using the Cup of Cheer Dies.  On the Night of Navy mug I cut out the stripes from the Cup of Cheer Dies in Shaded Spruce cardstock and adhered them to the cup using Fine Tip Glue Pen.  For the Flirty Flamingo cup I cut out a snowflake from the Seasonal Layers Dies in Sparkle Glimmer Paper and adhered it to the cup using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

For the Real Red and Shaded Spruce cups I stamped them both using sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Cup of Christmas Photopolymer Stamp Set with Versamark Ink.  I sprinkled the Real Red one with Shimmer White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and the Shaded Spruce one with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder.  I immediately used my Heat Tool to set them.  I adhered the cups to the card fronts using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I cut out the steam with a scroll die from the Christmas Cardinal Dies in Smoky Slate cardstock.  I adhered them to the cups using my Fine Tip Glue Pen.  I adhered the Cherry Cobbler card front to the Cherry Cobbler card base and the Shaded Spruce card front to the Shaded Spruce card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the insides I stamped one of the Whisper White panels in the center with the sentiment from the Cup of Christmas stamp set in Night of Navy Ink.  I stamped the holly image from the Cup of Christmas stamp set on either side of the sentiment in Shaded Spruce Ink.  On the other Whisper White panel in the center I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Frosted Foliage Cling Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce Ink.  I stamped the snowflake image from the Frosted Foliage stamp set in Coastal Cabana Ink, stamping off once, on either side of the sentiment.  I adhered the one stamped with the Night of Navy sentiment to the Shaded Spruce mat and the one stamped with the Shaded Spruce sentiment to the Coastal Cabana mat using Snail.  I adhered the Shaded Spruce matted sentiment to the inside of the Cherry Cobbler card base and the Coastal Cabana matted sentiment to the inside of the Shaded Spruce card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my cards I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the polka dot cup image from the Cup of Christmas stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on the envelope front.  I adhered a panel of the Wrapped in Plaid DSP to the envelope flap.

For the other Medium Whisper White Envelope I stamped the snowflake image from the Frosted Foliage stamp set in Coastal Cabana Ink on the envelope front.  I adhered a panel of Let it Snow Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my cards and will give them a try.  Let me know which one you like better.  The list of supplies are below along with the measurements if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video.  You can watch it on my Facebook page Here.

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