Stampin’ Up! Festive Words Noel

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. How was everyone’s weekend? Sunday was an absolutely gorgeous day here in NJ. It was a little chilly in the morning, I actually needed a jacket when I took the pup for a walk. I was able to get all my DSP and ribbon cut for my shares and with a lot of help from my friend and customer, I was able to get everything packed up and ready to go. So, if you ordered shares from me watch you mail.

I have a quick CAS card for you today playing with new sets from the Sept-Dec 2024 Mini Catalog. 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! Festive Words Noel 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Festive Words Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Bundle, Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper, Snowflake Sky 3D
Embossing Folder
and Stampin’ Up! Christmas Labels Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches #652.

Stampin' Up! Festive Words Noel 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Start by stamping the hat/sentiment image from the Festive Words stamp set on a Basic White card front. I inked up the stamp using Basic Black, Cherry Cobbler and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Write Markers. I gave it a little huff and stamped it on the card front. I embossed the panel using the Snowflake Sky EF.

Stampin' Up! Festive Words Noel 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere a panel of Nests of Winter DSP to the bottom of the panel using Liquid Glue. Wrap a piece of Shaded Spruce 1/2″ Satin & Sheer Ribbon around the card front panel and adhere it on the back using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Liquid Glue. Add Cherry Cobbler berries, from the Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Adhesive-Backed Berries (an Online Exclusive), to the berries on the hat.

Stampin' Up! Festive Words Noel 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the bough image from the Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Color the image using Cherry Cobbler, Pool party and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers. Cut the image out using the Winterly Tree Tops Dies. Adhere the bough to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Festive Words Noel 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, stamp the sentiment from the Christmas Labels stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the bough image from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Color the image using Cherry Cobbler, Pool Party and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Shaded Spruce mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Festive Words Noel 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish the card, decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the bough image from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set on the envelope front. Color the image the same as the card. Adhere a panel of Nests of Winter DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Thanks

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. I have to go into the office today for the end of the month paperwork. I’m hoping to get done quickly so I have the rest of the day to do what I want. Can you believe it’s the last day of June? I can’t. That means it’s also the last day to get the additional 10% off the Stamp & Dies Bundles.

Today’s card is another one that I made last Saturday at the Creativity Now event. This one was a lot of fun to make using the new suite that will be coming in September in the mini catalog. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops Thanks 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Bundle that will be available for purchase in September, along with the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops Thanks 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by using the center panel of the die cut from the card I made at the Creativity Now Event last Saturday. You can see that card Here. I placed the die cut panel on a panel of Basic White and using my Small Blending Brush I added Mossy Meadow Ink. I flipped the panel around and added more Mossy Meadow Ink using the Small Blending Brush. I wrapped a piece of the Natural Tones Linen Thread (available in September) around the panel twice and tied a bow. I adhered the panel to a Mossy Meadow card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops Thanks 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Smoky Slate, I stamped the double bird image from the Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using the Balmy Blue and Watercolor Pencil for the birds and Crushed Curry Watercolor Pencil for the berries I cut the image out using the Winterly Tree Tops Dies. I adhered the birds to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops Thanks 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch. I adhered the sentiment to the card front over the linen thread using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Earthtone Shimmer Gems (available in September) to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a panel of Basic White. I placed the die cut center panel on the top of the Basic White panel and added Mossy Meadow Ink using the Small Blending Brush. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Smoky Slate mat then to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops Thanks 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the double bird image from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image using Balmy Blue and Crushed Curry Watercolor Pencils. I used the center die cut panel again on the envelope flap and added Mossy Meadow Ink using the Small Blending Brush.

Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops in Gray

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. Here we are halfway through another week. Summer is in full spring here in NJ with the temps being in the 90’s again. I really don’t mind the heat, it’s when the humidity comes with it that I can’t breath. Yesterday was 92 and it was just beautiful out.

I have another sneak peek for you today of the products from the suite coming in the upcoming September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. 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! Winterly Tree Tops in Blackberry Bliss

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I had the Creativity Now event yesterday and I got a few sneak peeks at some things coming in the September – December 2024 Mini Catalog. I got to play with and make a few cards using a new suite too. Today I’ll be at work all day.

Today’s card is one of the cards I made yesterday with the new bundle coming in September. Of course, I had to change mine up a little from what the directions said.  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.

Here’s a little peek of the new suite coming in September and the products we used yesterday.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops in Blackberry Bliss 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Bundle along with the Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Winterly Tree Tops in Blackberry Bliss 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a panel of Blackberry Bliss using the new Birch Wood EF. I adhered the embossed panel to a Blackberry Bliss card base using Liquid Glue. I embossed a panel of Crumb Cake using the Birch Wood EF. I adhered the embossed panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped 3 of the sprigs and the double bird images from the Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images using Bronze, Ivory and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Markers. Once I was done coloring the image, I went over it with the Stampin’ Blends Color Lifter to lighten the color. I cut the images out using the Winterly Tree Tops Dies. I adhered the sprigs to the back of the bird image using Glue Dots. I adhered the bird image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Natural Tones Linen Thread (available in Sept) and adhered it to the sentiment using a Glue Dot. I added a few Earth Tones Shimmer Gems (available in Sept). to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the sprig image from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on either side of the sentiment. I colored the images using Bronze and Ivory Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Crumb Cake mat then to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the double bird image from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the sprig image from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope flap. I colored the images using Bronze, Ivory and Cherry Cobbler Stampin Blends Markers.
