Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. Do you have some plans in the works yet? I’ll be at work all day today.
Today’s card uses the Emboss Resist Technique. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Etched Autumn Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Branching Out Bundle and Stampin’ Up! Artistic Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.
Stamp the Etched Autumn image on a panel of Basic White in Versamark Ink. Sprinkle image with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool.
Using the Small Blending Brushes, add Blackberry Bliss, Darling Duckling, Old Olive and Timid Tiger Inks a little at a time. Remember you can always add more ink, but you can’t remove it. Wipe image with a tissue when you are done adding color to remove it from the embossed areas. Cut the image out with the largest Branching Out Dies. Adhere the colored panel to a Blackberry Bliss mat with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to a Timid Tiger mat with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to an Old Olive card base with Liquid Glue.
Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Branching Out Photopolymer Stamp Set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a panel of Basic White. Cut the ends into a banner using snips. Tie a multi-loop bow with the Old Olive Linen Thread. Adhere the bow to the card front with a Glue Dot. Adhere the sentiment over the bow with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few of the Low-Profile Sparkling Dots to the card front.
Stamp the sentiment from the Branching Out stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a pane of Basic White. Stamp the smaller leaf image from the Artistic Leaves stamp set in Timid Tiger Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on either side of the sentiment. Stamp the leaf highlight image from the Artistic Leaves stamp set in Old Olive Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the detailed image. Stamp the splatter image from the Artistic Leaves stamp set in Darling Duckling Ink around the leaves. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Blackberry Bliss mat, then to a Timid Tiger mat and to the inside of the Old Olive card base.
Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish the card. Stamp the smaller leaf image from the Artistic Leaves stamp set on the envelope front and flap in Blackberry Bliss and Timid Tiger Inks. Stamp the highlight image from the Artistic Leaves stamp set in Old Olive Ink and the splatter image in Darling Duckling Ink.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. Do you have any fun plans in the works? I’ll be at work all day today and tomorrow we will be hosting our August Online Technique Class. Tara and I are having so much fun with these classes and we invited Nicole in this month to present a couple cards.
I used all different products for today’s card along with a favorite technique of mine. I got the idea of putting this one together from Mary Deatherage’s card that you can see Here. There’s a sneak peek at dies coming in September, some annual catalog DSP and an Online Exclusive stamp set. I love how you can mix and match all of Stampin’ Up!’s products. 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.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Artistic Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Beautiful Gallery 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper, Stampin’ Up! Gallery Blooms Photopolymer Stamp Set and the new Branching Out Dies, available September 3rd for my card today.
Cut the panel of Beautiful Gallery DSP using the 2nd & 5th from largest Branching Out Dies. Cut a panel of Mossy Meadow using the largest & 4th largest Branching Out Dies.
Adhere the largest Mossy Meadow panel to the Basic Beige card base with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the largest Beautiful Gallery DSP panel to the top of the Mossy Meadow panel with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the other Beautiful Gallery DSP panels to the coordinating Mossy Meadow mats with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panels to the card front, matching up the pattern on the DSP,
On a panel of Basic Beige, stamp the sentiment from the Artistic Leaves stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. Tie a double bow using the Old Olive Linen Thread from the, Early Espresso & Old Olive Linen Thread Pack (available Sept 3rd), to the card front with a Glue Dot. Adhere the sentiment over the bow with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a couple Muted Palette Dots to the card front.
On a panel of Basic Beige, stamp the sentiment from the Artistic Leaves stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. Stamp the large floral image from the Gallery Blooms stamp set in Basic Beige Ink over the sentiment. Adhere the Basic Beige panel to a Mossy Meadow mat then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.
Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the large floral image from the Gallery Blooms stamp set in Basic Beige Ink on the envelope front. Color the leaves and stem on the flower with Mossy Meadow & Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. Stamp the floral image from the Gallery Blooms stamp set in Basic Beige Ink on a panel of Beautiful Gallery DSP and adhere the panel to the envelope flap.

Together Let’s Raise Some Money for the Floods in Texas from July 4th
We’ve all been watching – and crying – as we’ve watched the devastation caused by the flooding of the Guadalupe River in Texas on July 4th. It’s beyond horrible. Since there’s really nothing most of us can do that is hands-on – I try to help financially. I’m coming to you for HELP! So…I’m going to do a fundraiser that’ll start right now. I’ve selected Mercury One as the recipient of our donation.
Mercury One is a 501(c)(3) charity that was founded in 2011 by media personality, entrepreneur, and New York Times best-selling author Glenn Beck. It was created to inspire the world in the same way the United States’ space program shaped America’s national destiny by setting a goal and committing to reach it against all odds. The only limitations to achievement are those we place on ourselves, and we believe in the goodness and power of the individual to overcome any obstacle.
How can you help me help them??
Place a Stampin’ Up! Order Thru Me OR Donate Directly!
And – as an added incentive – if we hit our donation goal – $500– I’ll be giving away a new Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine to one winner!
I’m setting a goal of donating a total of $500 – and here’s how you can help me (and be entered to win a new Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine!).
1. – Shop Online:
For any orders placed through my Online Store between now and Saturday July 19,2025, I’ll be making a targeted donation of 20% of your merchandise total to Mercury One for Texas Hill County Flood Victims.
You’ll earn your Creative Stamping Designs Rewards with all order of $50 or more (before tax & shipping).
Anyone ordering $50+ (before tax & shipping) will be entered to win a new Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine from me to give away on July 20th.
OR…
2. – Make a Donation of $50+ directly to Mercury One at this LINK
For those in the US, send me a screenshot (to creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com) of the receipt for your donation of $50+ to Mercury One and you’ll be entered to win a new Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine from me to be give away on July 20th.
OR…
3. – Do Both!!
If you order $50+ through my Stampin’ Up! Online Store AND donate at least $50 directly to Mercury One, then your name will be entered TWICE to win the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine!
Please note: Per Stampin’ Up! rules, I’m only allowed to ship the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to addresses in the United States or military APO addresses. Only those with US/APO shipping addresses will be eligible to win the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Anyone outside the US is welcome to donate but will not be eligible to win the machine.
