Stampin’ Up! You Are Remarkable Sunflower

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all having a great weekend. It’s the last day of August, which means I have to work in the office today.

Today’s card I played with some of the Two-Tone cardstock and did the sanding technique. 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.

Stampin' Up! You Are Remarkable Sunflower 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! You Are Remarkable Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder and Perennial Postage Dies for my card today.

Stamp the sentiment from the You Are Remarkable stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on a panel of Basic White. Cut the sentiment out using the Perennial Postage Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals over the ribbon. Add a few 2025-2027 In-Color Flat Pearls to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment from You Are Remarkable stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the splatter image from the You Are Remarkable stamp set in Strawberry Slush Ink around the sentiment. Emboss a small panel of the Two-Tone cardstock using the Sunflower EF. Rub it lightly with the sanding block and adhere the panel to the bottom of the Basic White panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Secret Sea mat then to the inside of the Strawberry Slush card base.

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

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! Regal Flora Postage

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. Well, today is the last day of our vacation and it’s also my 36th wedding anniversary. We’ll be flying home late tonight, so we’ll have the whole day to wonder around Disney Springs doing some shopping and grab a bite to eat. The end of vacation is always bittersweet for me. I hate for it to end, but at the same time I can’t wait to get home to my pups and my normal routine. We hopped around to 3 parks yesterday. by the end of the day my feet were killing me. We started in Magic Kingdom (which surprisingly wasn’t crowded at all). Next, we headed over to Hollywood Studios and ended the day in Epcot. It was a very full day with LOTS of walking and fun.

Today’s card is the last one of my One Sheet Wonder where I took a piece of 6 X 6 DSP and cut it up to make 4 cards. 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.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora Bundle along with the Regal Winter Designer Series Paper, Perennial Postage Dies, 1 3/4″ Circle Punch and Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Cling Stamp Set for today’s card.

Stampin' Up! Under The Moon Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

This is our theme for this week

Stampin' Up! Under The Moon Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the water image from Under the Moon stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink on the bottom of a Basic White panel. I stamped the setting sun image from Under the Moon stamp set on top of the water. I inked the stamp with Lemon Lolly Ink then I added Calypso Coral Ink to the bottom half using a Sponge Dauber. I stamped the sailboat image in Night of Navy Ink.

Stampin' Up! Under The Moon Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the sentiment from Beach Day stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on the top of the panel.

Stampin' Up! Under The Moon Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I stamped the cloud image from Under the Moon stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink under the sentiment, stamping off on scrap paper once. I added an Adhesive-Backed Metallic Gem to the card front. I cut a panel of Basic White using the largest Perennial Postage Die. I adhered the artwork to the die cut mat using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered panel to a Night of Navy card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia for my Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. I hope you are all starting to make plans for the weekend. I’m here in Houston TX for our Stampin’ Up! OnStage Event. Last night was so much fun stamping with friends and getting our 1st new bundle from the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. I’m so excited to see what they have for us today. Our days here are starting early and ending late, but well worth it.

Today’s card is one that we made at our team meeting on Sunday. This card was designed by Carol Buckelew using Online Exclusive products. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia Fun Fold Thank You 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Simply Zinnia Bundle and Flowering Zinnia Designer Series Paper along with the Perennial Postage Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia Fun Fold Thank You 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering panels of Flowering Zinnias DSP to Daffodil Delight mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to a Mossy Meadow card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia Fun Fold Thank You 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the single zinnia from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia Cling Stamp Set in Flirty Flamingo, Highland Heather and Pumpkin Pie Inks. I stamped the leaf image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink 3 times. I cut all the images out using the Simply Zinnia Dies. I colored each of the flowers and leaves with the coordinating Stampin’ Blends Markers and the flower centers using Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia Fun Fold Thank You 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Perennial Postage Dies. I cut a panel of Berry Burst using the next largest Perennial Postage Die. I adhered the sentiment to the Berry Burst mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the flowers and leaves around the sentiment using Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia Fun Fold Thank You 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the other 2 panels of Flowering Zinnias DSP to Daffodil Delight mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the back panels of the card base using Liquid Glue. I kept the back inner panel very simple by just stamping the single zinnia image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Pumpkin Pie Ink on the bottom of a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink by the flower. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Daffodil Delight mat then to the back of the Mossy Meadow card base.

Stampin' Up! Simply Zinnia Fun Fold Thank You 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the single zinnia from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Pumpkin Pie Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the leaf image from the Simply Zinnia stamp set in Old Olive Ink by the flower. I adhered a panel of Flowering Zinnias DSP to the envelope flap.

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.
