Stampin’ Up! Creative Haven Hobby

Good Snowy Sunday afternoon stamping friends. I hope you are enjoying your weekend. We woke up to 6″ of snow outside today. I got myself bundled up, brought the pups out and shoveled the back steps and patio making a path to the back door. My husband got to do the driveway and sidewalks. If it stays cold and doesn’t rain, there’s a chance of having a white Christmas this year. I worked all day yesterday and thought I would be coming home to our Christmas tree inside. Unfortunately, my husband went to multiple places around us, and they didn’t have one for us. A lot of 4′ trees (which definitely is NOT tall enough, some that we’ve gone to in the past were sold out and everywhere he went wanted cash. You know he didn’t leave the house with enough cash; those trees were all $75 and up. I believe he’s trying a couple more places today, I’m staying home to get my baking list together.

Today’s card is another card that we made at our quarterly meeting last Sunday afternoon. My team member Nicole Bloxom designed this fun card. I did change mine up a little bit. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Creative Haven Hobby 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Creative Haven Stamp Set along with the Hobby Haven Designer Series Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

Only 2 Weeks Left for the Stampin’ Up! Joining Special

Good Friday afternoon stamping friends. We made it through the week, and the weekend is right around the corner. I hope you are all starting to make some plans. We are in full swing Autumn here in NJ. It’s a little cooler than I like, but I’m loving all the beautiful fall colors on the trees. I’ve got yellow trees in my back yard and purple/red in the front.

A little over 7 years ago I made the best decision ever and joined the Stampin’ Up! community. I’m part Amy’s Inkin’ Krew which is the best team you would ever want to be on. There’s never any pressure to sell, we all just love stamping and sharing. I have made more friends than I’ve had my entire life, and my heart couldn’t be any fuller. One of the best things is when we all get together at the Retreat (which I’ll be going on next week) or meeting up at OnStage, and getting together on Zoom every month. We all have so much fun together sharing what we have a passion for, stamping. Whether it’s in person or on Zoom, we always laugh and have a great time together. Pictured below are only a few from the team that were able to make it to NC in March for OnStage. When we’re all together we laugh till our sides ache and just enjoy each other’s company.

Tara and I (pictured below) have such a wonderful friendship that I never thought I’d have. Tara is from MO and I’m from NJ, but we are able to get together a couple times a year, and we offer Online Classes together each month. We talk and text on a regular basis sometimes just to see how each other are. I can’t wait to see her again next week at the retreat. If you love stamping and love sharing and would love to be a part of this amazing stamping friendship community, why not think about joining us. I’d be more than happy to help you get signed up. Join as a hobby demonstrator and if you decide you want to sell to your family and friends then you can think about the business side. More than 90% of our team are hobby demos and do it to enjoy the discount for themselves. As a hobby demo you get to go to OnStage and enjoy all the other perks of being a demo.

Stampin’ Up! Peace On Earth

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend and Happy World Card Making Day!! I hope you have some plans in the works, maybe even making some cards to send out. I’ll be working all day today and as of now, I’m planning on digging up one of my gardens in the front of my house tomorrow. This garden was made because we couldn’t get grass to grow in that area. In the past year, the grass decided to grow in the garden to the point I couldn’t keep up with removing it. I’m giving in and letting the grass take over. Now I just have to find a new home for my 50+ bearded Iris bulbs.

I played with one of the suites from the mini catalog for today’s card. 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.

Stampin' Up! Peace On Earth 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Peace on Earth Bundle along with the Peaceful Greenery 3D Embossing Folder, Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper, Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Words for The Season Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Peace On Earth 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere a panel of Peaceful Garden DSP to a Cloud Cover card base with Stampin’ Seal. Emboss another panel of Peaceful Garden DSP using the Peaceful Greenery EF. Adhere the embossed panel to the card front with Liquid Glue.

Stamp the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Peace On Earth Photopolymer Stamp Set on a Basic White panel in Secret Sea Ink. Using the Peace On Earth Dies, cut the sentiment out along with both of the dove die cuts. Cut a panel of Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper using the larger die from the Peace On Earth Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the Glimmer Paper mat with Stampin’ Seal. Brush the die cut dove using the Clear Wink of Stella. Adhere the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Fluff the dove’s wings using a Bone Folder and adhere the dove to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Peace On Earth 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Tie a bow using the Misty Moonlight Silver Edged 1/2″ Ribbon. Adhere the bow to the card front with a Glue Dot. Add a Hues of Blue Flowers to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment from the Words for The Season stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on a panel of Basic White towards the left side. Brush the other die cut dove using the Clear Wink of Stella. Adhere the dove next to the sentiment with Glue Dots. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Secret Sea mat then to the inside of the Cloud Cover card base.
