Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. How was everyone’s weekend? Yesterday wasn’t too bad here until after I got out of work. We had some pretty bad storms and flooding in my town. It was like someone turned a faucet on the way it was coming down.

I have a sneak peek for you today using a new set from the upcoming September-December 2024 Mini Catalog along with some DSP that is on sale right now. I love stamp sets that look like sketches.  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.

Stampin’ Up! Market Goodness for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Are you ready for the weekend? I hope you are starting to make some fun plans.

Today’s card I played with a whole suite collection. This is one that I wasn’t sure if I wanted or not. When I got the DSP for my shares I fell in love with it, but still wasn’t sure about the bundle. I really like the sentiments from it but wasn’t totally convinced yet. Then we had that additional 10% off sale last month and I decided to order it. I’m so happy I did, it’s so much fun to play with. 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! Market Goodness Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! To Market Suite Collection for my card today, which includes the Stampin’ Up! Market Goodness Bundle and To Market Designer Series Paper.

I started by scoring and folding a Blackberry Bliss card base at 2 1/8″(mountain fold), 2 1/4″(mountain fold) and 5 1/2″(valley fold).

Stampin' Up! Market Goodness Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, using the Stampin’ Up! Market Goodness Photopolymer Stamp Set, stamp the tomato image in Real Red Ink, carrot image in Pumpkin Pie Ink, beet image in Blackberry Bliss Ink and the details lettuce image in Garden Green Ink. Stamp the tomato stem image from the Market Goodness stamp set in Garden Green Ink on the tomatoes. Stamp the carrot and beet leaf images from the Market Goodness stamp set in Garden Green Ink on top of the carrots and beets. Stamp set solid lettuce image from the Market Goodness stamp set in Garden Green Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on top of the detailed lettuce image. Cut all the image out using the Market Goodness Dies. From a panel of Basic Beige, cut the bag die using the Market Goodness Dies. Arrange the vegetables in the bag the way you want them and adhere the bag to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Stamp the sentiment from the Market Goodness stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a strip of Basic White. Adhered the sentiment to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Stampin’ Seal. Adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin Dimensionals. Add a few Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots to the card front.

On the inside, stamp the sentiment from the Market Goodness stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a panel of Basic White.

Adhere the 1″ strip of To Market DSP to the right side of the mat. Adhere the layered panel to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Attention Shoppers Bundle along with the To Market Designer Series Paper and Nested Essentials Dies for today’s card.

Stampin' Up! Attention Shoppers Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered one of the 1″ X 5 1/4″ panels, one of the 3 1/2″ X 5 1/4″ panels and the 1 1/2″ X 5 1/4″ panel of To Market DSP to coordinating Blackberry Bliss mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to a Petal Pink card base using Liquid Glue.

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:

  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! Bistro Burger for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Is everyone ready for the weekend? I hope you all have Monday off to enjoy a picnic with friends and family.

Last Tuesday was our Stamping Studio and I led Mystery Stamping. The card I posted last Friday was where I got my design from to share. Today’s card is the one I made during mystery stamping. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Bistro Burger Easel 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bistro Burger Bundle along with the To Market Designer Series Paper and Nested Essentials Dies for my card today. I adhered 4″ X 4″ & 1″ X 4″ panels of To Market DSP to Crumb Cake mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the 1″ X 4″ layered panel to the top scored section of a Basic Beige card base using Liquid Glue. I adhered the 4″ X 4″ layered panel to a Basic Beige mat using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the bottom 2 1/8″ scored section of the Basic Beige card base using Liquid Glue

Stampin' Up! Bistro Burger Easel 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the burger and fries’ images from the Stampin’ Up! Bistro Burger Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green, Old Olive, Pecan Pie, Poppy Parade and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using the Bistro Burger Dies. Using the Bistro Burger Dies, I cut the cutting board die and knife handle die from a panel of To Market DSP, and the knife die from a panel of Smoky Slate. I adhered the knife handle to the knife using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the cutting board die cut to the bottom of the card front using Stampin’ Seal, trimming off excess using Paper Snips. I adhered the burger, fries and knife using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the happy Father’s Day sentiment from the Bistro Burger stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. I fussy cut the sentiment using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Bistro Burger Easel 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Bistro Burger stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the 1″ X 4″ panel of Basic Beige. I adhered the sentiment to a Crumb Cake mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the scored section of the Basic Beige card base using Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic Beige I stamped the sentiment from the Bistro Burger stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I adhered the Basic Beige panel to a Crumb Cake mat then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.

Stampin' Up! Bistro Burger Easel 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the sentiment from the Bistro Burger stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Nested Essentials Dies. This sentiment is the stopper for the easel card. I adhered the sentiment towards the bottom of the inner liner using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Textured Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Bistro Burger Easel 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the fries image from the Bistro Burger stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Wild Wheat Stampin ‘ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of To Market DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. Did you do anything fun this weekend? I hope all the mothers out there had an extra special day yesterday.

Today’s card I played with some Online Exclusive products along with some new DSP. 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.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Fluffiest Friends Cling Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive So Sincere Cling Stamp Set along with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder, To Market Designer Series Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

My colors for today are from the Color Throwdown Countdown Challenge #792

My design is from Try a Sketch on Tuesday Challenge #646

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of To Market DSP to a Boho Blue card base using Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Basic Beige in half on a diagonal using the Paper Trimmer. I embossed the triangles using the Eyelet EF. I cut the panel of Boho Blue in half on a diagonal using the Paper Trimmer. I adhered the Basic Beige triangles to the Boho Blue triangles using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the 2 layered triangles to the card front using Liquid Gue. On a panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the cat image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I cut the image out using the 3rd largest square from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I colored the image using Boho Blue, Pecan Pie and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the image to a Boho Blue mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic Beige, I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set in Boho Blue Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the 2nd smallest circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a 2023-2025 In-Color Opaque Sparkle Dot to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set in Boho Blue Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. I stamped the flower image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink along the bottom of the panel. I colored the flowers using Boho Blue and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Beige panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Boho Blue card base.

Stampin' Up! fluffiest Friends Cat 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope, I stamped the cat and flower images from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of To Market DSP to the envelope flap.
