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

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! Otterly Amazing Panels

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off well. I have one of my least favorite appointments today. I have to go once a year to a retina specialist. 27 years ago, at a regular eye appointment, my Dr found that I had detached retinas in both eyes. I had gone partially blind and didn’t even know it. I had to have surgery to have them repaired, and this was before laser surgery was a thing. They were able to repair the tears but not my blindness. I am so grateful that he found it or I would have gone completely blind. So, every year I have to go to make sure everything is still intact.

Today’s the day you can finally order the new Online Exclusive products, YAY!!! Today’s card uses some of the Online Exclusive products. I’m loving this new DSP. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin’ Up! Rustic Crate for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend already.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We are doing month-long challenges now, so you have all month to enter multiple times.  The inspiration photo #210 is Pumpkin Season. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Rustic Crate Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Rustic Crate Dies, Country Woods Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies, Stampin’ Up! Caring Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set and Online Exclusive Deckled Circle Dies and Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder for my Clean & Layered card. I was inspired by the pumpkins in the photo along with the overall rustic feel of the photo, the colors and of course the gingham.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 210.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Emboss a Gray Granite card front using the Leaf Fall EF. Adhere the embossed panel to a Gray Granite card base using Liquid Glue. From a panel of Basic Black, cut the Deckled Circle Die and from a panel of Basic White, cut the largest circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Adhere a panel of Country Woods DSP to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the pumpkin/sunflower image from the Rustic Crate stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the Basic White die cut circle. Color the image with Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Pecan Pie and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the artwork circle to the Basic Black Deckled circle using Stampin’ Seal. Cut the crate using the Rustic Crate Dies from a panel of Country Woods DSP. Adhere the crate on top of the stamped image using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Cut the sentiment from a panel of Gray Granite using the Rustic Crate Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the bottom of the layered panel.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Marker, color a piece of Black & Very Vanilla 3/8″ Large Check Ribbon. Wrap the ribbon around the layered panel and tie a bow. Adhere the artwork over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the layered panel to the card front using Liquid Glue. Add a few Pumpkin Pie Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, stamp the sentiment from the Caring Leaves stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the pumpkin image on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black.
