Stampin’ Up! Year of Flowers

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans in the works. I’ll be at work all day today and I’m anticipating it being very busy. Last I heard there’s a snowstorm heading our way and it’s supposed to start today at 3pm and go through the night. Now, the weatherman has been wrong before, so we’ll see what happens.

Today’s card played with a new set from the Online Exclusives that’s coming on March 4th, along with some Online Exclusive DSP and an older set from the annual catalog.  If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

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

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.

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! Bee Mine Sending Smiles

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. How is your weekend going? I was at work all day yesterday and I’ll be working all day today too. It rained and rained all day yesterday. It was a slow day at work, which tends to make the day long. Luckily the people I work with are all fun and we like to talk.

I have a fun card with lots of layers. I LOVE making cards with layers. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made today’s card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set, Sending Dies, Scalloped Contour Dies and Bee Mine Designer Series Paper for my card today. Because Valentine’s Day is over it doesn’t mean you can’t still use this adorable DSP.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Bee Mine DSP to a Petal Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Sweet Sorbet card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut a panel of Petal Pink using the Scalloped Contours Dies. I adhered a panel of Bee Mine DSP to the center of the die cut panel using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Using the Sending Dies, I cut the sentiment mat from a panel of Sweet Sorbet and the detailed sentiment from a panel of Basic Whtie.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the detailed die to the mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the die cut sentiment to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Sending Smiles stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on a strip of Basic White. I cut the sentiment out using the Sending Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the bottom of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the bumblebee image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Daffodil Delight, Petal Pink and Tuxedo Black Ink above the sentiment. I adhered a strip of Bee Mine DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat then to the inside of the Sweet Sorbet card base.

Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Sending Smiles 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bumble bee image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set on the envelope front in Daffodil Delight, Petal Pink and Tuxedo Balck Inks. I adhered a panel of Bee Mine DSP to the envelope flap.

This week we have Color Challenge. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s colors.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Heartfelt Hellos Cling Stamp Set, Bee Mine Designer Series Paper and Hot Air Balloons Dies for my card today.

These are out colors for this week

My design is from Sunday Stamps Challenge #326.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Bee Mine DSP to a Pool Party card base using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered 2 more panels of Bee Mine DSP to Pool Party mats using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the larger layered panel to the card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered the smaller layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Hot Air Balloons Dies, I cut a heart from a panel of Sweet Sorbet. I stamped the honeycomb image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on the heart. I adhered the heart to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a strip of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink. I cut the ends on an angle using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few of the Tinsel Gems Four Pack to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Sale-a-bration Heartfelt Hellos stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered 2 strips of Bee Mine DSP on either side of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pool Party mat then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the honeycomb image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Bee Mine DSP 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.

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! Bee My Valentine Fractured Card 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Bundle along with the Bee Mine Designer Series Paper and Countryside Corners Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine Fractured Card 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting a panel of Basic White using the Countryside Corners Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the die cut panel to a Bee Mine DSP card front using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine Fractured Card 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered strips of Petal Pink along all the edges of the die cut up to the sides of the DSP, letting the excess hang over. Once I went all the way around with the strips of Petal Pink, I flipped the panel over and trimmed off the excess with Paper Snips. I adhered the card front to a Petal Pink card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine Fractured Card 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the solid bee image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Daffodil Delight Ink. I stamped the bee stripes and face from the Bee My Valentine stamp set on the solid image in Tuxedo Black Ink. I punched the image out using the Bee Builder Punch. I stamped the detailed wings image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the Basic White panel. I cut the wings out using the Bee Builder Punch. I adhered the wings to the back of the bee body using a Glue Dot. I stamped the dotted image and the antenna from the Bee My Valentine stamp set to the sentiment panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the bee to the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a heart from the Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers to the bottom of the panel.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine Fractured Card 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the solid bee image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Daffodil Delight Ink on the top of the panel. I stamped the bees stripes and antenna in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bee body. I stamped the wings image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on top of the bee. I stamped the dotted image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink all around the panel. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Petal Pink mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Buzz

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans in the works. I’ll be working today and tomorrow we have out quarterly meeting that I’ll be going to.

I played with a new set from the upcoming January-April 2024 Mini Catalog for today’s card. This is such an adorable suite. I just received my catalog in the mail yesterday. There’s something about having a printed copy in front of me that I just love. I love the idea of being able to flip back and forth between pages to see things. I’ll be ordering my catalogs for my customers on Tuesday and packing them up and shipping them out as soon as I get them. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! bee My Valentine Buzz 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Bundle and Bee Mine Designer Series Paper for my card today. These items will be available for purchase starting January 4th.

Stampin' Up! bee My Valentine Buzz 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering the beehive panel of Bee Mine DSP to the top of the Basic White panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the plaid panel of Bee Mine DSP to the bottom of the Basic White panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! bee My Valentine Buzz 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Pool Party, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with Black Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I stamped the dotted image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Pool Party Ink on the top and bottom of the panel. I adhered the sentiment panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! bee My Valentine Buzz 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a small panel of Basic White, I stamped the bumble bee image from the Bee My
Valentine
stamp set in Daffodil Delight Ink. I stamped the bees’ strips and face from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink over the bee image. I cut the image out using the Bee Builder Punch. I stamped the antenna image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the panel and cut them out using the Bee Builder Punch. I stamped the wings image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Pool Party Ink on a panel of Vellum paper. I cut the wings out using the Bee Builder Punch. I adhered the antenna and wings to the back of the bee using Glue Dots. I adhered the bee to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Sweet Sorbet 1/4″ Bordered Ribbon (part of the Bee Mine Suite available in January) and adhered it to the card front using a Glue Dot. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers to the card front.

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.

January-April 2024 Mini Catalog Paper Shares Ordering Is Open

Do you want all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers in the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Mini Catalog but can’t afford everything?  I’m doing a Designer Series Paper Share! What is a Paper Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Minil Catalog.  If you were to purchase all of the DSP in the new Mini Catalog, it would cost you $108.00 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):

  • Bee Mine – 6
  • Forever Love – 6
  • Just Kiddin’ -6
  • Light Than Air 6″ X 6″ – 8
  • Nature’s Sweetest – 6
  • Perennial Lavender – 6
  • Poetic Expressions – 6
  • Rock & Roll – 6

In all, you’ll receive 50 – 6” x 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!

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.

Anyone is welcome to join in my share (please note, I can only ship to addresses within the US).  If you’d like to join, email the following information to creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com

  • Your first and last name

If you’d like to use Zelle, email me and I’ll give you the number associated with my account.

Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine OnStage At Home Card

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already. Time is just flying by too quickly.

This past Saturday was out Virtual OnStage At Home event. It’s kind of like a convention that Stampin’ Up! has every year. We get to do some make and takes, listen to what’s going on with Stampin’ Up! and BEST OF All we get to see the new upcoming January-April 2024 Mini Catalog. Can I tell you how awesome it is. My list is growing every time I look at it. We also got to see the January-February Sale-A-Bration catalog that’s filled with lots of FREE goodies. Today’s card is one that we made durint the event. I did my own thing as we went along. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Bundle along with the Bee Mine Designer Series Paper for my card today. These items will be available starting January 4, 2024.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the honeycomb image from the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set on a panel of Daffodil Delight in Daffodil Delight Ink. I adhered the 2 panels of Bee Mine DSP to the panel using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Daffodil Delight card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the panel of Basic Whtie Thick cardstock, I stamped the bee stripes and antenna images from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I I punched the images out using the Bee Builder Punch. I stamped the bees face image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Tuxedo Balck Ink on the punched-out bee. On the panel of Vellum Paper, I stamped the wing image from the Bee My Valentine stamp set 2 times and let it dry. I cut the wings out using the Bee Builder Punch. I adhered the antenna and wings to the back of the bee using Glue Dots. I colored the bees body using the Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the bee to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink. I cut the strip on an angle using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a small heart from the Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers to the card front.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Sweet Sorbet mat then to the inside of the Daffodil Delight card base.

Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Are you all ready for the weekend. I’ll be prepping all day today for next weekend’s retreat and my Stamp Camp Card Class that I’ll be having the day after I et home from the retreat.

Today’s card I made on YouTube Live 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, just above the supply list, along with the link to my YouTube channel. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends Bundle (available November 7th) along with the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set and Bee Mine Designer Series Paper (available in the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog), Stampin’ Up! Zany Zoo Cling Stamp Set and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by scoring and folding a Pool Party card base. The 3″, 7 1/2″ & 10″ score lines are all Mountain folds. The 6″ & 9 ” score lines are Valley folds. I adhered the 3 panels of Bee Mine DSP to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the 3 Sweet Sorbet panels to the 3 coordinating Petal ink mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the 3″ diamond to the center back, butting the corner right in the center fold. I lined the 2 3/4″ diamond in the center folded area and 2 1/2″ diamond on the front folded panel, lining up all 3 diamonds.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the bear, cat and hamster images from the Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends Cling Stamp Set in tuxedo Black Ink. I colored all the images using Copper Clay, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Ivory, Lemon Lime Twist, Natural Tones, Petal pink, Pool party, Smoky Slate and Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut all the images out using the Fluffiest Friends Dies. Using Glue Dots, I adhered the bear to the back panel, cat to the center and hamster to the front panel.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

I cut 6 pieces of grass from a panel of Lemon Lime Twist using the Fluffiest Friends Dies. On the Basic White panel, I stamped the sentiments from the Zany Zoo stamp set in tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiments out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the grass die cuts below the animals using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiments to the 1st and center images using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers (available January 2024) to the sentiments.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Bee My Valentine stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the bunny image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Lemon Lime Twist, Petal Pink, Smoky Slate & Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Petal Pink mat then to the inside of the Pool Party card base.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends Fun Fold 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bunny and hamster image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images with Lemon Lime Twist, Naturals Tone, Petal Pink, Pool Party, Smoky Slate & Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Bee Mine DSP to the envelope flap.

The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

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

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.

Product List

Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. Were you able to join us for our World Card Making Day presentations yesterday? How about the Stampin’ Up! event? I was glued to my computer all day yesterday.

Today’s card I made on our Facebook Live event yesterday. 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, just above the supply list, along with the link to my YouTube channel. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends WCMD 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends Bundle which will be available to customers starting in November. I used the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Photopolymer Stamp Set and Bee Mine Designer Series Paper, which will be available in the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog. Lastly, I used the Stampin; Up! Happy Labels Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends WCMD 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of Bee Mine DSP to a Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Using the Fluffiest Friends Dies, I cut the hive from the center of another panel of Bee Mine DSP. I adhered pieces of the Foam Adhesive Sheet to the back of the die cut DSP. Using the Fluffiest Friends Dies I cut the beehive from a panel of Daffodil Delight, the leaves & grass from a panel of Granny Apple Green and the branch from a panel of Pecan Pie.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends WCMD 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the larger panel of Basic White, I stamped the bee image from the Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the bees using Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers and Clear Wink Of Stella on the wings. On the smaller panel of Basic Whtie, I stamped the bear image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set. I colored the bear using Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Ivory and Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the Fluffiest Friends Dies.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends WCMD 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the die cut grass to the inside of the die cut hive panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the beehive and leaves to the tree branch using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel (with the bees stamped on it) to the center of the card front. I adhered the die cut DSP panel on top of the Basic White panel. I adhered the bear inside the hive, behind the grass using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the branch to the top of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Bee My Valentine stamp set on a strip of Basic White in Sweet Sorbet Ink. I cut the ends on an angle. I adhered the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends WCMD 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Labels stamp set in Sweet Sorbet Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the bee image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on either side of the sentiment. I colored the bees using Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers and Clear Wink of Stella for the wings. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Sweet Sorbet mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends WCMD 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bear & bee images from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images the same as I did for the card. I adhreed a panel of Bee Mine DSP to the envelope flap.
