Stampin’ Up! Lifetime of Love

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some plans for the weekend in the work. I actually have off today. I’ll be spending the day celebrating my son and his fiancé at their engagement party. They are making a whole day of it at this quaint brewery. They wanted to keep it simple since that’s who they are. It will be a whole day of everyone coming and going and just getting together to celebrate and meet each other. We took care of ordering A LOT of pizzas. My daughter made about 80 cupcakes yesterday and they came out beautiful. I made caprese appetizer bites using my home-grown tomatoes and basil with a balsamic glaze. I’m looking forward to a fun day meeting everyone and it looks like the weather is going to cooperate with us.

So, since we have an engagement party, my daughter asked me if I would make a card for her to give them. That’s today’s card in the theme colors of the party. 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.

Together Let’s Raise Some Money for the Floods in Texas from July 4th

As of last night, July 18th, we’re at $180 of the $500 to be donated. We can Do this!!!

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.

NOTE: Orders and/or Donations must be placed by midnight Eastern Time on Saturday July 19 to be entered to win the machine.  One winner of the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine will be randomly chosen on Sunday July 20th from all of the entries received.

Any questions, please send me an email to creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com. I appreciate your help more than I can express.

Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning stamping friends and welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Theme Challenge. 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 using this week’s theme.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Arch 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Bundle along with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder, Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive It’s Okay Cling Stamp Set (available March 4th) and Everyday Arches Dies for my card today.

This is our theme for this week.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Arch 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the 4th from the smallest Everyday Arches Dies, cut the center of the Basic White card front out. Set the cut-out piece back in the center and stamp the small cluster of butterflies from the Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Cling Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink on the top and bottom of the panel. Stamp the leaf image from the It’s Okay stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the side of the arch. Stamp the sentiment from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Basic Gray on the die cut arch.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Arch 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Emboss the card front, with center piece, using the Exposed Brick EF. Adhere the large card front panel to a Petal Pink card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the center die cut arch to the card front, fitting it inside the large card front, using Liquid Glue. Cut the small, detailed butterfly using the Sketched Butterflies Dies from a panel of Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper. Adhere the butterfly to the top of the arch using a Glue Dot.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Arch 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Cut the three detailed butterflies from a panel of Petal Pink using the Sketched Butterflies Dies. Adhere the butterflies to the card front using Glue Dots. Add a few Basic Gray Pearls to the center of the butterflies.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Arch 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. Stamp the leaf image from the It’s Okay stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the butterfly image from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Petal Pink Ink next to the sentiment. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Lost Lagoon mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

Stampin' Up! Sketched Butterflies Arch 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete the card. Stamp the leaf image from the It’s Okay stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the envelope front and flap. Stamp the butterfly image from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the envelope front and flap. Stamp the cluster of butterflies from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on 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.

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.
