Stampin’ Up! Brew Some Fun CAS for Fun Fold Friday with Video Tutorial

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’m actually off on Saturday, but will be at work all day Sunday.

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. 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. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Brew Some Fun Cling Stamp Set along with the Neutrals 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my simple fun fold card today.

I started by embossing a panel of Merry Merlot using the Hello & Thanks Embossing Folder. I then cut a panel of Neutrals DSP from the center of the 5 1/4″ side I cut in 2″. I scored from the center cut line to the 2 corners and folded them out. I adhered the DSP to the Merry Merlot card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and adhered it to a Crumb Cake card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I cut the 3rd largest circle from the Layering Circles Dies from a panel of Basic White cardstock. On the circle I stamped the trio of flowers image from the Brew Some Fun stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them in using my Night of Navy and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. I colored the sentiment from the Brew Some Fun stamp set using my Merry Merlot and Night of Navy Stampin’ Write Markers and stamped it on the circle die. On the panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the coffee cup and the small bow from the Brew Some Fun stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Crumb Cake and Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the cup using my Paper Snips and cut the bow out using my Warm Wraps Dies. I adhered the bow to the cup using a Glue Dot and the cup to the bottom of the circle using a Stampin’ Dimensional.

I adhered the circle die to a scalloped circle which I cut from a panel of Night of Navy cardstock using the Layering Circle Dies. I adhered the layered dies to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Night of Navy Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in Merry Merlot Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Neutrals DSP to the bottom of the panel. I stamped the coffee cup on the bottom of the panel and colored it in using my Crumb Cake and Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Night of Navy mat and then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the coffee cup and trio of flowers images from the Brew Some Fun stamp set on the envelope front and colored them in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Neutrals 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. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post. I’d love to see your take on the card.

Stampin’ Up! Warm Wraps Decorated Jar

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? It’s a bit on the chilly side here, dropped to the 20’s last night.

I have something a little different for you today, no stamping. With the holiday’s approaching quickly I thought I’d show you a little gift jar that I made. I showed it to one of my cashiers at work yesterday that’s a preschool teacher and she loved it. She’s going to have her preschoolers make it for a parent gift. It a great idea for girl scouts to make or if you have enough for a class project. Great little gift for kids to make for their grandparents and fill it with chocolates. This is also a great idea if your children have holiday shopping at their school, you can whip these up in not time. This would make a perfect holiday or winter gift using the Whimsy & Wonder DSP. Here’s my little gift jar.

I used the Warm Wraps Dies and the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper for mine.

All you have to do is eat a jar (or 2) of the oui yogurt and you have a jar. The labels peel off really easy for easy washing. Cut 2 of the Warm Wrap Dies that are made to fit over our Mini Coffee Cups (#153493 page 137 from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog) in any color DSP that you like. They fit perfectly around the neck of the jar. Adhere the wrap together on one side, then wrap it around the jar and adhere it on the other side while on the jar. Wrap a ribbon of your choice around the jar and tie a bow. I added a Glue Dot under the bow to hold it in place.

I keep it on my craft table filled with some of my adhesives. You can decorated these however you like. I kept it simple since it sits on my craft table and I didn’t want it to be too bulky.

It fits a votive in it perfectly. Any parent would be proud to display their child’s artwork.

You can use it for small tealight candles that would glow through the paper. You can fit one of those small succulent plants in it too. Fill it up with some chocolates and you have the perfect teacher gift.

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

Stampin’ Up! Warm Hugs for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends and welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. Hope you are all doing well today.  If you are hopping over from Akiko, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Theme challenge. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects .
Here is our Theme for this week.

Here is my card using this Theme.

My design is from Try Stamping on Tuesday Challenge #477. Here is their sketch.

I also played along with “Just Us Girls” Word Week Challenge #556. Here is their word.

I started by adhering a panel of Plaid Tidings 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Shaded Spruce card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I embossed a panel of Shaded Spruce card stock using the Wrapped in Texture Embossing Folder and adhering it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut a panel of Cherry Cobbler cardstock using the largest square from the Layering Squares Dies. I cut a panel of Plaid Tidings DSP into a banner using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the Cherry Cobbler square using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted banner to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the outline mug image from the Stampin’ Up! Warm Hugs Photopolymer Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce Ink. I stamped the mug fill image in Shaded Spruce Ink, stamped off once. I colored the inside of the mug in using my Crumb Cake Stampn’ Blends Markers. I stamped the decorative round border image from the Warm Hugs stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Warm Hugs stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink. I cut the images out using my Warm Wrapped Dies. I cut the other small panel of Whisper White cardstock using the 4th largest square from the Layering Square Dies and stamped the steam image from the Warm Hugs stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink. I adhered the die cut mug below the steam using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals and the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the artwork to the banner using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Shaded Spruce Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Warm Hugs stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the outline mug image from the Warm Hugs stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the fill image in Shaded Spruce Ink, stamped off once, inside the outline. I stamped the steam image from the Warm Hugs stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink above the mugs. I colored the inside of the mugs in using my Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Shaded Spruce card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the mug image from the Warm Hugs stamp set along the bottom of the envelope front the same as I did for the card.

I adhered a panel of Plaid Tidings DSP to 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.
