Stampin’ Up! Flowering Rain Boots

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Hope you were able to do something fun. It was just too cold here for me. Maybe because I’m still not 100% since I was sick, but the cold just went right through me.

I got a new set in the mail on Thursday, thank you Amy. I just couldn’t wait to put some ink on it and play with it. This is one of those must have sets that I see myself using a LOT. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Rain Boots Bundle for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #518.

I started by stamping the flower stems and sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Rain Boots Photopolymer Stamp Set in Just Jade Ink on a Basic White card front. I stamped the tulips heads from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Daffodil Delight Ink on the stems.

I embossed the card front using my Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the rainboot image from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Polished Pink Ink. I cut the image our using my Rain Boots Dies and adhered them below the stamped flowers using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Just Jade Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the rainboots image from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Polished Pink Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic White mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the stems from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the envelope front and flap. I stamped the tulip image from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Daffodil Delight Ink on the stems on the envelope front and 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! Driving By Birthday

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I worked yesterday and I’m planning on staying in today. It’s cold here in NJ. I don’t mind it a little cold, but not when it makes my bones cold lol.

I played with one of the Sale-a-bration sets for my card today. It’s a set that I looked at when I first got the brochure and said “what am I going to do with that”. After playing a little with it, I like it, I have many other ideas I just have to get on a card now. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Driving By Cling Stamp Set along with the Brights 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors were inspired by the Color Throwdown Challenge #675.

I started by adhering Granny Apple Green and Pacific Point panels of the Brights DSP to a Smoky Slate card base. On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the car image from the Driving By stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Light Basic Black, Daffodil Delight and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I colored the balloons in using my Wink of Stella brush and my Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green and Pacific Point stamp pads.

I stamped the sentiment from the Driving By stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink above the card image. I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Nut About Squirrels Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink behind the card.

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

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Driving By stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the car image from the Driving By stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Basic Black, Granny Apple Green and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I colored the balloons the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Smoky Slate mat and then to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Brights DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap. I stamped just the balloons from the Driving By stamp set up the one side of the envelope and colored them the same as I did on the card.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream Anniversary

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. Can you believe it’s the middle of the month already? January usually drags for me, but it seems to be flying by. Does anyone have plans? Other than working my only plan is to try to stay warm, it’s supposed to be a cold one here.

Today’s card we made at our team lounge this past Tuesday. My upline Jaimie has a small meeting and then we do some mystery stamping. I really do enjoy it, even if she makes me go out of my comfort zone. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream Bundle along with the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from Global Design Project Color Challenge #325.

I started by embossing a Pool Party card front using the Gingham Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the butterfly and 2 daffodil images from the Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the images out using my Daffodil Dies. I colored the images using my Pale Papaya, Polished Pink and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to a Very Vanilla mat and then to the card front on an angle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the daffodil and butterfly images to the layered panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I tied a bow with my Pale Papaya 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon and adhered it next to the daffodils using a Glue Dot. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Love & Happiness Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink and cut it out using my Harvest Dies. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon and daffodils using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Love & Happiness stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the butterfly and smaller daffodil images from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel. I colored the images in using my Pale Papaya, Polished Pink and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Pool Party mat and then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the single daffodil image from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it using my Pale Papaya and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Daffodil Afternoon 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!!

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be working all day Saturday and have Sunday off.

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! Happy Hedgehogs Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Sunshine & Rainbows 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today. This DSP is a FREE Sale-a-bration item with a qualifying $50.

I started by adhering 2 panels of the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP to Bermuda Bay Mats. I adhered the layered panels to the Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment, mushroom, bird & hedgehog images from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Crumb Cake, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Petal Pink, So Saffron & Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Mango Melody Stampin’ Write Marker. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Bermuda Bay mat and then to the front of the small Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few of the Brushed Brass Butterflies to the artwork.

On another panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment, butterfly and hedgehog images from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Tuxedo Balck Ink. I colored the images in using my Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink, Pool Party and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Bermuda Bay mat and then to the inside of the small Pool Party card base. I wrapped a piece of Pool Party 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon around the large card base and tied a bow. I adhered the small card base to the small right panel of the large card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the tree image from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the image in using my Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Bermuda Bay mat and then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the 2 hedgehog images from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set on the envelope front and colored them using my Crumb Cake, Petal Pink and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Sunshine & Rainbows DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Love & Happiness 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 Karen Finkle’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Color Challenge.  Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this week’s Colors.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Love & Happiness Bundle along with the Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Here are this week’s colors.

I started by adhering a Sweet Talk DSP card front to a panel of Petal Pink cardstock to give is a little more stability. I adhered a small panel of Sweet Talk DSP to a Petal Pink mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Sweet Talk DSP card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I wrapped a piece of the Petal Pink 1/8″ Cotton Ribbon from the 1/8″ Cotton Ribbon Combo Pack around the card front and tied a bow. I adhered the card front to a Petal Pink card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using my Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder, I cut and embossed a panel of Basic Whtie cardstock. I adhered the embossed heart over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Love & Happiness Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Bouquet of Love Dies and adhered it to the heart using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the sentiment and heart.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Love & Happiness stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered 2 thin strips of the Sweet Talk DSP to either side of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat and then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Sweet Talk DSP to the envelope front and a panel 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.

Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Birthday

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already and almost halfway through the month. Another month flying by.

I have a quick card for you today. When I saw the colors for this challenge, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Calming Camellia Cling Sale-a-bration Host Stamp Set and the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I joined in with Seize the Birthday color Challenge #229.

I started by adhering a panel of the Heart & Home DSP to a Basic Gray card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the large floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink. I colored just the larger flowers in using my Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Balmy Blue mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Balmy Blue cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Silver Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered a piece of Silver Simply Elegant Trim to the card front using Stampin’ Seal and then the sentiment over the trim using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the smaller floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored just the larger flower using my Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Balmy Blue mat and then to the inside if the Basic Gray card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the smaller floral image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the envelope front and colored it using my Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Heart & Home 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! Calming Camellia Biggest Wish

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I actually impressed myself yesterday. Since my husband had started undecorating and packing up Christmas while I was at work on Saturday, I finished most of it Saturday night. Sunday morning, I got up and finished packing up anything else I had to do. By 10:30am I was completely finished packing up Christmas, had everything back in my attic and I rearranged my furniture and vacuumed. I had the rest of the day for me, well kind of.

Today I have a mix of Sale-a-bration, 2021-2022 Annual Catalog and January-June 2022 Mini Catalog for you. I was using a little of everything to make a CAS card. Here’s my card for today.

I used the gorgeous Stampin’ Up! Calming Camellia Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Artfully Composed Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My Theme is from the Inspire. Create. Birthday Challenge #107.

My colors are from the Paper Players Challenge #573. I used White as my neutral color.

My design is from Sunday Stamps Challenge #273.

I started by adhering a panel of the Artfully Composed DSP to a Pale Papaya card base. Using my Stamparatus, I stamped the large sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the 1st 2 sentiments then moved the sentiment to the bottom and stamped the bottom 2.

I stamped the large floral image and the swirl image from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink over the sentiments. I cut the panel in half at 2 3/8″. I adhered both panels to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal. I stamped the script sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Just Jade Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips.

I adhered the script sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Just Jade Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large floral image from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Just Jade mat and then to the inside of the Pale Papaya card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large floral image from the Calming Camellia stamp set on the envelope front in Pale Papaya Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Just Jade Ink over the image. I adhered a panel of Artfully Composed 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. Just a reminder that today is the last day to take advantage of my Double Creative Stamping Designs Rewards. It ends tonight at 11:00pm ET. If you haven’t gotten your order in yet, there’s still time. This is a great time to get those rewards built up. Happy Stamping!!

Double Creative Stamping Design Rewards Ends Tomorrow

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.

Stampin’ Up! Catching Butterflies

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend. Hope you have something fun planned.

Before I get started on my card today, I want to remind you about my Double Creative Stamping Designs Rewards going on right now. You can only qualify for my double rewards until Monday January 10th at 11:00pm ET. Click Here to see my Rewards program. Today I used all Sale-a-bration items for my card. I love getting free products. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Catching Butterflies Cling Stamp Set along with the Simply Marbleous Designer Series Paper and the Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper for my card today. All these items are Sale-a-bration items and can be earned FREE with a qualifying order.

I started by stamping the girl and butterfly images from the Catching Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the image our using my Encircled in Beauty Dies. I colored the image in using my Bermuda Bay, Bronze, Ivory, Pool Party and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the grass image below the girl’s foot in Soft Succulent Ink. As much as I dislike fussy cutting, I love Paper Piecing. On a small panel of Sunshine & Rainbow DSP I stamped the dress image of the girl in Tuxedo Black Ink and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips. I adhered it to the girl image using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the collage of butterflies from the Catching Butterflies stamp set on a panel of Simply Marbleous DSP in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the die cut girl image to the panel of DSP letting it hang over the edge a bit. I trimmed the die cut even with the DSP using my Paper Trimmer. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Catching Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered a piece of Pool Party 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon to the card front. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Glue Dots. I adhered the layered card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Catching Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the butterfly images from the Catching Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the panel around the sentiment. I adhered a strip of the Simply Marbleous DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Basic Black mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the butterfly image from the Catching Butterflies stamp set in Tuxedo Black on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Simply Marbleous 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!!
