Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some plans for the weekend. I’ll be working all day today and last I saw we’re expecting rain all day today. We’ll see what happens, it’s NJ and they don’t always get the weather correct. Tomorrow I have my in-person quarterly meeting. I always look forward to these meetings and getting together with team members.
I have a quick birthday card for you today using one of my favorite sets from the new catalog. Here’s my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings Bundle along with the Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.
I started by adhering a panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP to a Berry Burst mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to an Azure Afternoon card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the circle sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Circle Sayings Photopolymer Stamp Set in Azure Afternoon Ink. I stamped the cupcake image from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink inside the sentiment. I colored the image using Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch.
I adhered a piece of 3/8″ Lemon Lolly Sheer Ribbon from the Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack, to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the punched sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Tinsel Gems Four-Pack to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Azure Afternoon Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of Bright & Beautiful DSP to the top of the panel. I stamped the cupcake image from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. I colored the image using Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Berry Burst mat then to the inside of the Azure Afternoon card base.
To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the cupcake image from the Circle Sayings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions.
MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS: GVEBWYZ6
Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the January-April 2023 Mini 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:
- 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….
- 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.
