Stampin’ Up! True Love Pansy Patch CAS

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How has everyone’s week started off? We’re going to have a warm week here. I looked ahead and we’re in the upper 80’s all week, YAY!!! Looks like summer might be here.

I have a CAS card for you today using the Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Photopolymer Stamp Set and the True Love Designer Series Paper. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Fab Friday Challenge #213.

I started by adhering a panel of the True Love DSP to a Thick Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I fussy card a flower from another panel of the True Love DSP using my Paper Snips. I colored the image in using my Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I adhered the flower image to the center of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Using my Pale Papaya Stampin’ Write Markers I edged the strip to give it a little color. I adhered the sentiment over the flower image on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Fresh Freesia 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in the center of a Basic White panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I fussy cut another flower from the True Love DSP using my Paper Snips and colored it in using my Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the flower to the bottom of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basie White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the True Love DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Tasteful Touches Black and White

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Hope you have a fun weekend planned. I’ll be at work both days this weekend.

Today’s card is another one that we made at my class last week. Everyone’s card came out a little different. Here’s my card for today.

We used the Stampin’ Up! Tasteful Touches Cling Stamp Set for our card along with some of the retiring True Love Designer Series Paper.

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered a panel of the True Love DSP to the side using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the flower, sentiment and feather images from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the images out using my Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I adhered the rectangles to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Matte Black Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the flower image from the Tasteful Touches stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Tasteful Touches stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the True Love DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Flowering Blooms Thank You

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How has everyone’s week started off? I hope you are all having a productive one. Last night after a long day at work, I did a quick Facebook live video sharing my new produce pre-order from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. If you missed it and want to see some of the goodies, you can see it here.

For today’s card I did not use new product, but I did use some retiring product. I used the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Blooms Bundle and the True Love Designer Series Paper. This stamp set is one of my favorite sets that will be retiring in May. I just love the images in this set and I’ve used them so much. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Inspire. Create. Challenge #087.

I also played along with Just Us Girls Word Week Challenge #578.

I started by adhering 2 panels of True Love DSP to Melon Mambo mats using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Basic White card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic Black card base using Stampin’ Seal.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the rose image from the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Blooms Cling Stamp Set. I colored the image using my Just Jade and Melon Mambo Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the leaf image from the Flowering Blooms stamp set in Just Jade Ink twice on the Basic White panel. I cut the images out using my Flowering Dies. I embossed a panel of Basic White cardstock using the Pinewood Planks 3E Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Melon Mambo mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered the die cut leaves to the back of the rose image using Glue Dots. I adhered the rose image to the embossed panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the artwork to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On the panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from Flowering Blooms stamp set in Just Jade Ink and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the artwork using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Just Jade 2020-2022 In-Color Enamel Dots to the artwork.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Blooms stamp set in Just Jade Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the rose image from the Flowering Blooms stamp set on the bottom of the panel, coloring the stamp using my Just Jade and Melon Mambo Stampin’ Write Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Melon Mambo mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Basic Black card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose image from the Flowering Blooms stamp set on the envelope front coloring it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of True Love DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthdays Brilliant Wings

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I was able to attend our quarterly meeting in person. It was only my team leader and myself along with everyone else virtually, but I really enjoyed myself. It was great getting out for a bit with someone other than my co-workers.

Today’s card is one that we made at our team meeting and it was designed by one of my team members and upline Jaimie Babarczy. She always designs simple yet elegant cards. All the cards we made yesterday used the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance Collection in one way or another. I’ll be showing my cards throughout the week. Here’s my card for today.

I’m playing along with the Inspire. Create. Challenge #086.

I started by embossing a Terracotta Tile card front using the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered a panel of True Love Designer Series Paper to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal then adhered the matted panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Terracotta Tile card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Brilliant Wings Dies, I cut the largest butterfly out of a panel of Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. I adhered the cut DSP to a Basic White mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut another one of the same detailed butterflies out of a panel of Basic Black cardstock. I adhered the butterfly over the Butterfly Bijou DSP using Multipurpose Liquid Glue just on the body of the butterfly. I adhered the matted panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic Black cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthdays Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment using my Tasteful Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dot. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. Remember that butterfly I cut out of the Butterfly Bijou DSP panel? I adhered it below the sentiments using Multipurpose Liquid Glue just on the body. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Terracotta Tile card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Butterfly Bijou DSP to the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the True Love DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Don’t forget, Terracotta Tile is one of the 2019-2021 In-Colors that will be retiring May 3rd. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Dressed To Impress for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s week? We got another 8″ of snow yesterday topped with a little ice. I’m really ready for spring and to start planting my flowers. Are you ready for the weekend? I’m actually only working on Sunday this weekend. I was shocked when I looked at my calendar, but it was a very pleasant surprise.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you very much. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. I used the Stampin’ Up! Dressed To Impress Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today. I really didn’t think I was going to like this set when it came out last year, but I have gotten so much use of it between birthday cards and Mother’s Day cards. I’m really loving this set. Here’s my card that I made.

My colors for today’s card were from Inspire. Create. Challenge # 084.

I started with a panel of True Love Designer Series Paper cutting the panel only to the flowers then fussy cutting them using my Paper Snips. I colored just the center flowers in on the DSP using my Rococo Rose Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I scored a Rococo Rose card base at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″, scoring and folding on both folds inward. I adhered a panel of Love You Always Specialty Designer Series Paper to the bottom front section of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the cut and colored panel of True Love DSP to the top of the DSP using Stampin’ Seal. I stamped the sentiment from the Dressed To Impress stamp set in Rococo Rose ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Dressed To Impress stamp set in Rococo Rose Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the 3rd smallest scalloped rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I stamped the flower image on the bottom of the die cut panel in Rococo Rose Ink. I stamped the rose fill image in Rococo Rose Ink over the outlined image stamping off twice. I adhered a panel of Sahara Sand cardstock to the inside of the Rococo Rose card base using Stampin’ Seal. I stamped the flower image from the Dressed To Impress stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink in the 4 corners of the panel. I adhered the scalloped sentiment to the Sahara Sand panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I made 2 small bows using the Blushing Bride 3/8″ Metallic Ribbon. I adhered 1 to the inside sentiment using a Glue Dot. I added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I first adhered the 2nd Blushing Bride bow to the top of the front of the card base using a Glue Dot. I adhered a panel of Love You Always Specialty DSP to the envelope flap. I stamped the outline flower image from the Dressed To Impress stamp set on the envelope front in Rococo Rose.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

You can also view the video on my YouTube channel Here. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart CAS

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s weekend going? Why is it weekends go so quick and weekdays seem to drag? I’ll be working again today and I have a feeling it’s going to be a slow day, like watching paint dry slow. Yesterday I worked a little later than I expected, I forgot it was the 1st of the year and I had to do a little extra with my bills.

For today I have another Black & White card for you. I’m usually all about color, not quite sure what’s going on with me. I used the Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart Cling Stamp Set for my card which is a Sale-A-Bration item. Here’s my card for today.

I played along with the TGIF Color Challenge #297.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Heal Your Heart stamp set (available January 5th) on the bottom of a Whisper White panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I embossed the panel using the Dandelion 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted card front to a Thick Whisper White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Heal Your Heart stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the dandelion image from the Stampin’ Up! Garden Wishes Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the dandelion image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the True Love Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my Clean and Simple, Quick and Easy card for today and will give it a try. This stamp set is a free set during Sale-A-Bration starting Tuesday January 5th, with a qualifying order of $50. If you are in need of a catalog, please feel free to drop me a note and I will get one out to you ASAP. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! A Touch Of Ink Sneak Peek CAS

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. Happy New Year’s Eve Eve. Well, it’s almost time to say good bye to 2020. I have to admit, I’m not going to miss this year. There were a few highlights for me, one was after 14 years we finally went on a family vacation to Disney. I’m hoping 2021 will be a healthy year for all and we can get past this Covid and go back to our ‘normal’ lives. How about you, what are you all hoping for?

For today’s card I went out of my comfort zone a little bit, every once in a while I like to do that. Everyone knows I love my colors. Sometimes I use 2 or 3 and other times I used 5 or 6. Well, not today. Today is Black and White. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! A Touch of Ink Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today. This set is a free Sale-A-Bration item with a qualifying purchase. I also used the True Love Designer Series Paper, but didn’t add color this time.

I started by embossing a panel of Whisper White cardstock using the Meadow Moments Embossing Folder. I adhered a panel of the True Love DSP to the right side of the embossed panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the humming bird, butterfly and sentiment from the A Touch of Ink stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the images out using the Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I adhered the die cut images to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Matte Black Dots to the artwork.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Happiest of Birthdays Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I adhered 2 strips of the True Love DSP to either side of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered The Whisper White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the butterfly and humming bird images from the A Touch of Ink stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of True Love DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. The items to make this card will be available January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog and the Sale-A-Bration Catalog. Happy Stamping!!

WHISPER WHITE CARDSTOCK PRODUCTS- AVAILABLE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

Stampin’ Up! announced this information related to the Whisper White paper products late last evening:

Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.

We know Whisper White has a huge fan base; we’re big fans, too! And we are crushed that it’s going away. Even though this decision was out of our hands, rest assured that we jumped right into action to find the best replacement paper possible. We have dedicated many hours to source and test alternative cardstock options from several suppliers to find the perfect fit that still maintains the Stampin’ Up! quality you know and trust. We are happy to share that we have found a winner for our new cardstock, Basic White!

The quality of our new Basic White was thoroughly tested by our quality assurance and product teams. It also tested very well with demonstrators and concept artists who gave it a huge thumbs up. We believe in the quality of the new Basic White cardstock and we know it will become your new crafting staple!

What does this mean for you?

With Whisper White going out of production, this means a number of Whisper White products will be affected. Below is a list of all products that will be replaced with our new Basic White cardstock. These items are now available while supplies last with an order limit of 2 per item per order.

  • Whisper White 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cardstock (124302)
  • Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes (149710)
  • Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes (131527)
  • Whisper White 3″ x 3″ (7.6 x 7.6 cm) Envelopes (145829)
  • Whisper White 8-1/2″ x 11″ Cardstock (100730)
  • Whisper White 8-1/2″ x 11″ Thick Cardstock (140272)
  • Whisper White Medium Envelopes (107301)

Our new Basic White products will become available to purchase as soon as we have them in stock. This means that some Whisper White and Basic White products may be available at the same time. Additionally, due to the nature of sourcing, some Basic White products may not be available before the Whisper White products sell out. Please know that we are working on getting these products available to you as fast as possible.

Here is our sketch for this week.

Here’s my card using the sketch.

I used the Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental Bundle for my card today.

I started by coloring a panel of the new True Love Designer Series Paper (coming in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog) using my Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the panel using my Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I adhered a panel of the True Love DSP to a Cherry Cobbler card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the stitched rectangle panel to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Seal.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and cut it out using my Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered a piece of 1/4″ Old Olive Ribbon from the Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo Pack with Glue Dots. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Cherry Cobbler Rhinestones from the Holiday Rhinestones Basic Jewels.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Onate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the flower from the Stampin’ Up! Painted Poppies Cling Stamp Set on the bottom of the panel and colored them in using my Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a strip of the True Love DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Cherry Cobbler card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I adhered a panel of the colored True Love DSP to the envelope front and the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through all our projects today.

WHISPER WHITE CARDSTOCK PRODUCTS- AVAILABLE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

Stampin’ Up! announced this information related to the Whisper White paper products late last evening:

Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.

We know Whisper White has a huge fan base; we’re big fans, too! And we are crushed that it’s going away. Even though this decision was out of our hands, rest assured that we jumped right into action to find the best replacement paper possible. We have dedicated many hours to source and test alternative cardstock options from several suppliers to find the perfect fit that still maintains the Stampin’ Up! quality you know and trust. We are happy to share that we have found a winner for our new cardstock, Basic White!

The quality of our new Basic White was thoroughly tested by our quality assurance and product teams. It also tested very well with demonstrators and concept artists who gave it a huge thumbs up. We believe in the quality of the new Basic White cardstock and we know it will become your new crafting staple!

What does this mean for you?

With Whisper White going out of production, this means a number of Whisper White products will be affected. Below is a list of all products that will be replaced with our new Basic White cardstock. These items are now available while supplies last with an order limit of 2 per item per order.

  • Whisper White 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cardstock (124302) – SOLD OUT
  • Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes (149710)
  • Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes (131527) – SOLD OUT
  • Whisper White 3″ x 3″ (7.6 x 7.6 cm) Envelopes (145829)

  • Whisper White Medium Envelopes (107301) – SOLD OUT

Stop by the online store to get the following Whisper White products that you love before they’re gone forever!  The Thick Whisper White card stock, Whisper White 12″ x 12″ Cardstock, Medium Envelopes and Note Cards & Envelopes have already sold out!

Our new Basic White products will become available to purchase as soon as we have them in stock. This means that some Whisper White and Basic White products may be available at the same time. Additionally, due to the nature of sourcing, some Basic White products may not be available before the Whisper White products sell out. Please know that we are working on getting these products available to you as fast as possible.
