Stampin’ Up! In The Pines Christmas

Posted on August 30, 2020 by Karen Ksenzakovic

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s weekend going? Hope you are enjoying some fun activities.

I have another quick and easy card for you today using one of the new bundles from the August – December 2020 Mini Catalog. Here’s today’s card.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches #450. Here is their sketch.

I started by adhering a panel of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper to a Mossy Meadow card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the outline tree image from the Stampin’ Up! In The Pines Photopolymer Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I stamped the fill image from the In The Pines stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink over the outlined images. I cut the 3 trees out using my Pine Woods Dies. On a panel of
Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Winter Woods Cling Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Stitched Rectangle Dies, making sure the sentiment was at the top of the rectangle.

I adhered the trees to the bottom of the rectangle using Multipurpose Liquid Glue for the bottom one and Stampin’ Dimensionals for the top 2. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the artwork.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Boughs Cling Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the fill image of the tree from the In The Pines stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the bottom of the panel, one full strength and the 2nd stamping off once.

To complete my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the outline tree image from the In The Pines stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the fill image tree from In The Pines stamp set over the outline image in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I adhered a panel of Heartwarming Hugs 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! Rustic Winter Woods Birthday

Posted on December 23, 2019 by Karen Ksenzakovic

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything exciting or fun? I was at work, but had a great time. I love working during the holiday season, watching everyone rush around trying to get all their gifts. In the mean time, I still have shopping to get done myself, UGH!!

I have a masculine birthday card for you today. Here’s my card.

My design was inspired by Sunday Stamps Challenge #220. Here is their sketch.

I started by embossing a Soft Suede card front using the Pinewood Planks 3D Embossing Folder.

I stamped the tree image from the Stampin’ Up! Winter Woods Cling Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I cut 2 of the trees out of Soft Suede cardstock using the In The Woods Dies. I adhered the trees on either side of the Very Vanilla panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Rustic Retreat Cling Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink on the top of the artwork.

I adhered the artwork to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of 5/8″ Burlap Ribbon around the card front and tied a knot. I added a Glue Dot under the knot to keep it in place. I adhered the card front to a Soft Suede card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Shaded Spruce Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the cottage image from the Rustic Retreat stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink, stamping off once, to the center of a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the trees on either side of the cottage in Crumb Cake Ink, stamping off once. I stamped the sentiment from the Rustic Retreat stamp set in Soft Suede Ink over the cottage image. I stamped the pine boughs image from the Rustic Retreat stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on the top of the Very Vanilla panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Shaded Spruce mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Soft Suede card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope. I stamped the cottage image from the Rustic Retreat stamp set on the envelope front in Crumb Cake Ink. I stamped the trees on either side of the cottage in Crumb Cake Ink. I stamped the pine boughs image from the Rustic Retreat stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink along each side of the envelope front. I stamped the tree image from the Winter Woods stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on 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! Wrapped in Plaid Winter Woods

Posted on December 4, 2019 by Karen Ksenzakovic

Good Wednesday morning my fellow stampers. Happy half way through the work week day!! Hope everyone’s week is moving right along. Other than my surgery getting delayed for 3 hours yesterday, everything went well. I got to be awake for the whole thing and was able to ask the doctor questions as he was performing the surgery. The first hand wasn’t too bad, but by the time he started the second the numbness was wearing off. He did numb it up again though. Having a bit of trouble using my finger now, but I’ll figure out how and keep moving right along.

For today’s card I used a stamp set from the Annual Catalog which I absolutely love. Here’s my card.

My colors were inspired by CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #350. Here are their colors.

I started by adhering a panel of Wrapped In Plaid Specialty Designer Series Paper to a Shaded Spruce card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the tree image from the Stampin’ Up Winter Woods Cling Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce Ink. I cut the image out using the largest Stitched Nested Labels Dies and cut the top section off. I adhered the artwork to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I needed a star for the top of the tree, so I grabbed the Stitched Stars Dies and cut a small star out of a scrap of Gold Foil Sheet. I adhered the star to the top of the tree using a Glue dot. I added Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels all over the tree.

On a strip of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Winter Woods stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink. I made a banner out of the strip using my Banner Triple Punch. I adhered a small strip of a Gold Foil Sheet to the bottom of the banner using Snail and adhered it to the bottom of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow from the Shaded Spruce/Gold 3/8″ Striped Ribbon and adhered it to the end of the banner using a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Merry Christmas To All Photopolymer Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the pine bough image from the Winter Woods stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on either side of the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Snail 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 tree image from the Winter Woods stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on the envelope front. I stamped one in full strength and another stamped off. I adhered a panel of the Wrapped In Plaid Specialty 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! Night Before Christmas Wish for Everything

Posted on December 2, 2019 by Karen Ksenzakovic

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers and Happy December!! How was everyone’s long weekend? Did anyone brave going out on Black Friday to start their holiday shopping? I definitely did NOT. I stayed in and got my house decorated for Christmas. This has been a tradition of mine for years to decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving. I decorate the inside and my husband does the outside. Sometimes I think he is trying to compete with Christmas Vacation though. I didn’t decorate as much this year as I normally do. Christmas usually explodes in my house, going all out decorating every room to the fullest. We are leaving for a vacation (finally after 5 years) on January 6th and I will need to pack up everything before I leave, I don’t want to have to come home to having to pack up Christmas.

For this week, I’m doing some pretty quick and easy cards for you. We’re getting to crunch time to finish up Christmas cards, so I figured I give you some quick ones using up a lot of DSP. Today’s card was inspired by my upline Jaimie. I’ve had this piece of DSP and didn’t know how to use it without ruining the beautiful picture, Jaimie made a card last week using this paper and I loved it. Here’s today’s card.

This is one of the cards we are going to make at my Stamp Camp this week. I started by cutting the panel of Night Before Christmas Designer Series Paper in half so that I could make 2 cards from this one piece. Now everyone knows that I don’t make any 2 cards the same, but when I’m having a class everyone else makes my card.

I adhered the Night Before Christmas DSP to a Very Vanilla mat using Snail. I adhered the matted DSP to a Night of Navy card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut the Merry Christmas sentiment out of a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock using the Word Wishes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

They are a little difficult to see, but I added a few Gold Glitter Enamel Dots to the card front to add a little glimmer.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! A Wish For Everything Cling Stamp Set in Night of Navy Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the tree image from the Stampin’ Up Winter Woods Cling Stamp Set off to the side in Old Olive Ink. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Winter Woods stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Night Before Christmas 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! Winter Woods Fall Thank You

Posted on September 30, 2019 by Karen Ksenzakovic

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. I want to first start by thanking everyone for all your kind words, encouragement and sympathy cards. I am part of one of the best communities around. You have all helped me so much at this very sad time in my life and I will never be able to thank all of you enough. I am truly blessed to have you!!

I have a fall thank you card for you all today. My sketch and colors were part of my uplines challenge that she is doing for the month of October. Here is my card

I started by adhering a panel of Pumpkin Pie Regals 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Pumpkin Pie card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a small panel of Come To Gather Designer Series Paper to a Merry Merlot mat using Snail. I adhered the matted DSP to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the tree image from the Stampin’ Up! Winter Woods Cling Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink. I adhered the artwork to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Snail. I adhered the matted artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I cut out 3 leaves from the Gathered Leaves Dies, one in Blackberry Bliss, one in Merry Merlot and the last in Pumpkin Pie cardstocks. These dies are perfect because they don’t only cut the leave out, but they emboss the vines in the leaves too. I adhered a piece of the 5/8″ Burlap Ribbon across the artwork using Snail. I adhered the leaves on top of the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the tree image from the Winter Woods stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on either side of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Seasonal Wreath Photopolymer Stamp Set in Merry Merlot Ink in top center of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Merry Merlot mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Pumpkin Pie card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I finished my card by decorating a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Winter Woods stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Come To Gather 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 Winter Woods Friendly Silhouette Card

Posted on September 11, 2019 by Karen Ksenzakovic

Good Wednesday morning my fellow stampers. How has everyone’s wee been going? We’re already halfway through. Did you all have a chance to hop around yesterday with Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop and see all the beautiful projects my team members made? If not, you can still go back to yesterday’s blog and hop around.

For today’s card I did a technique that I haven’t done before (at least I don’t think I have. I used my Sponge Brayer to make the background on my card. I usually do the sponging technique using my Stamping Sponges, but I thought I’d try something new. Here’s my card.

My card played along with a couple challenges today. 1st off I joined in with As You See It Challenge #208. Their challenge is a Night Glow Color Challenge. Here are their colors.

Nest I played along with Fab Friday Challenge #171. Here is their sketch

I also played along with Always Fun Challenge #127. They have a Theme challenge this week. Their theme is “Create a Scene”.

I started by using my Sponge Brayer and adding color slowly to a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I started with the bottom and added Mango Melody Ink. I worked my way up and next used Coastal Cabana Ink. On the top of the panel I used my Sponge Brayer with Pretty Peacock Ink. After I was done adding the amount of color that I wanted, I stamped the multiple tree image from the Stampin’ Up Winter Woods Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of the panel.

I cut 2 of the trees out from the In The Woods Dies from Basic Black cardstock and adhered them to either side of my card front using my Fine Tip Glue Pen. I then cut the grassy cat tail die from the Friendly Silhouettes Dies out of Basic Black cardstock and adhered it to my card front using my Fine Tip Glue Pen. I adhered the card front to a Coastal Cabana mat using Snail

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Gather Together Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pretty Peacock Ink on a Whisper White panel. I adhered the sentiment strip to a thin Mango Melody strip of cardstock using Snail. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Coastal Cabana Glimmer Enamel Dot to the sentiment. I made a tiny bow from the Pretty Peacock/Old Olive 3/8″ Reversible Ribbon and adhered it to the sentiment using a Glue Dot. I adhered the card front to a Pretty Peacock card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the tree image from the Winter Woods stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on either side of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Friend Like You Photopolymer Stamp Set in the center of the panel in Pretty Peacock Ink. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Pretty Peacock card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Winter Woods stamp set on either side of the envelope front and on the envelope flap in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.

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