Stampin’ Up! Art Gallery Sympathy Sneak Peek

Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s weekend going? I had to work all day yesterday and again today. I’m looking forward to another short week coming up, how about you?

For today’s card I used the Stampin’ Up! Art Gallery Photopolymer Stamp Set to make a sympathy card for you today. This set will be available January 5, 2021 from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Try Stamping On Tuesday Challenge #487. Here is their sketch.

I started by adhering a panel of the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper to a Pretty Peacock card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut the edges of a panel of Pretty Peacock cardstock using the Ornate Borders Dies. I adhered a strip of Fine Art Floral DSP to the die cut panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted DSP to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink. I cut the sentiment into a banner using my Banner Triple Punch and stamped it with the large floral image from the Art Gallery stamp set in Pool Party Ink, stamping off once. I adhered the bannered sentiment to a strip of Pool Party cardstock, which I cut using the Banners Pick A Punch, using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set in Pretty Peacock Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the large floral image from the Art Gallery stamp set in Pool Party Ink, stamping off once, over the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Pool Party mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Pretty Peacock card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I stamped the floral image from the Art Gallery stamp set in Pool Party Ink on the envelope front. I stamped once full strength and a couple more times stamped off once. I adhered a panel of the Fine Art Floral DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you liked my card. The stamp set and DSP will be available in less than 10 days from the January-June 2021 Mini 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.

Stampin’ Up! Woven Heirlooms Thinking of You

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers and Happy Memorial Day.  Please take a moment to remember all the men and women who risked their lives for us and all the those who still do.  Remember to thank them when you see them.  My dad was one who fought in WWII for us and I think of him everyday, not just today.  Is anyone able to do anything today?  My niece and her boys are coming over for a very small picnic and to celebrate my daughters birthday.  We usually have a big picnic, but under the circumstances we are not.  In the past years, there has been a huge bike race in our town on Memorial Day.  This year the parade and race have been cancelled.

For today’s card I made something a little different than I usually do.  I’m usually all about the colors, well not today.  Here’s my card for you today.

I started by embossing a Very Vanilla card front using the new Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder (available June 3rd).   I adhered it to a Very Vanilla card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut out an oval frame using the Heirlooms Frames and embossed it using the Heirlooms 3D Embossing Folder.  This set will be retiring June 2nd.  On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set in Rococo Rose Ink.  I cut the sentiment out using the largest oval from the Layering Ovals Dies.

I adhered the sentiment to the back of the frame using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I adhered the frame to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Rococo Rose.  I stamped the flourish image from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Rococo Rose above and below the sentiment.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the Very Vanilla card base using Snail.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope using some of the retiring Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and will give it a try.  Don’t forget, if you like this Heirlooms Frames & 3D Embossing Folder grab it while you still can.  I hope you all enjoy the rest of your Memorial Day. Stay safe everyone.  Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Sympathy Pressed Petals CAS

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends.  How has everyone’s weekend started off?  I’ve gotten 4 of my 7 gardens cleaned up and mulched.  My gardens are encircled with very large rocks and every couple years I have to lift all the rocks and rake the dirt under them and put them all back.  Since last year I had shoulder surgery and couldn’t do anything, this is the year to do it.  My other 3 gardens I will clean up and re-do the rocks and I’m planning on putting small rocks instead of mulch.  Does anyone have plans for today?  It’s suppose to be rainy here, so I won’t be working outside much.  I love crafting on rainy days, so I’m hoping to get some time in between work.

So for today I have a super easy Clean and Simple card for you.  As I said yesterday, I’m trying to use up some of my DSP before it retires for good.  Here’s my card.

Unfortunately I’ve used up the sympathy cards I keep on hand so I thought I’d make one to keep in my box. I like to keep a couple on hand, just in case.

I started by cutting a panel of the Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper that already had the encircled flowers on it.  I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set in the center of the oval in Mossy Meadow Ink.

I adhered the DSP to a Mossy Meadow mat using Snail and then to a Mossy Meadow card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Well Said Cling Stamp Set in the center of a Very Vanilla panel in Mossy Meadow Ink.  I adhered 2 strips of the Pressed Petals Specialty DSP to the top and bottom of the panel using Snail.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope.  I adhered a strip of the Pressed Petals Specialty DSP to the front of the envelope 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! Path of Petals Heirloom for Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my fellow stampers.  I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed your time with family and friends.  We celebrate on Christmas Eve, so our Christmas Day was a very quiet relaxing day.  Welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are hopping over from Akiko, thank you for stopping by. This week we had a Color Challenge.  Be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here’s my card using our colors.

Here is my card using these colors.

I started by adhering a panel of Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper to a Soft Suede card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut a panel of Rococo Rose cardstock using the Heirlooms Frame Dies and 3D Embossing Folder.  On a small panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink.  I cut the sentiment out using the largest die from the Layering Ovals Dies.  I stamped the stem image from the Stampin’ Up! Path of Petals Photopolymer Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink, stamping off once, over the sentiment on the oval.  I stamped the flower image from the Path of Petals stamp set in Rococo Rose Ink, stamping off once, on the stem.

I adhered the sentiment oval to the back of the Rococo Rose frame using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I adhered the frame to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Path of Petals stamp set in Soft Suede Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the stem image from the Path of Petals stamp set in Soft Suede Ink, stamping off once, to the bottom of the Very Vanilla panel twice.  I stamped the flower image from the Path of Petals stamp set in Rococo Rose Ink, stamping off once, on the stem image.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Rococo Rose 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 stem image from the Path of Petals stamp set in Soft Suede Ink, stamping off once, on the front of the envelope.  I stamped the flower image from the Path of Petals stamp set in Rococo Rose Ink on the stem image on the envelope front.  I adhered a panel of the Pressed Petals Specialty 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.

Stampin’ Up Woven Heirlooms Sympathy

Good Thursday morning my fellow stampers.  How has everyone’s week been?  The weekend is right around the corner, I hope you are starting to make some fun plans.

For today I have a quick and easy card for you, despite the layers.  These cards unfortunately I always like to have on hand.  Here’s my card.

My card played along with a few challenges today.  I joined in with TGIF Color Challenge #228.  Here are their colors.

I played along with Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #522.  Here is their sketch.

I also played along with Inspire. Create. Theme Challenge #051.  Here is their theme.

I started by embossing a panel of Merry Merlot cardstock with my Subtle 3D Embossing Folder.  I adhered the card front to a Merry Merlot card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered a panel of Merry Merlot Neutrals 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Very Vanilla mat using Snail.  I adhered the matted DSP to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a small panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I stamped the scroll image from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Merry Merlot Ink on the top and bottom of the panel.  I adhered the sentiment panel to a Very Vanilla mat using Snail.  I adhered the matted sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I colored 2 Rhinestone Basic Jewels using my Dark Basic Black Stampin’ Blend Marker and adhered them to the scroll image.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to the center of a Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the scroll images from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Merry Merlot Ink around the Very Vanilla panel.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the Merry Merlot card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope.  I adhered a panel of the Merry Merlot Neutrals 6 X 6 DSP to the envelope flap and the front of the envelope.

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

Stampin’ Up Woven Heirlooms Laser-Cut Thinking of You

Good Thursday morning my fellow stampers.  How is everyone’s week going?  We’re around the bend to the weekend now, hope you are starting to make some fun plans.  I’m on my way to the beach for the day.  It’s suppose to be beautiful today, hopefully the sand won’t be blistering hot that we can’t even walk on it.  The beach is my ‘Happy Place’ where I can sit back and relax.  It’s one of the few places that I can actually relax just listening to the waves and seagulls.  I also get inspiration there walking along the water and searching for shells and sea glass.

So onto today’s card.  For those of you that know me, you know that I do not like fussy cutting.  It’s just something I am not good at.  I am determined to conquer this fussy cutting problem.  I did a lot of fussy cutting for my card today, right down to the tiny bee on the sentiment strip.   Here’s my card.

I used the Bird Ballad Laser-Cut Cards & Tin for my card base today and the Mosaic Mood Specialty Designer Series Paper for all my artwork.  These cards are so delicate and beautiful.  I adhered a panel of Garden Green cardstock behind the laser cut panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue to make the laser-cutting stand out more.

I cut the largest stitched circle from the Stitched Shapes Dies out of Terracotta Tile cardstock.  I adhered the flowers that I had fussy cut from the Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP to the stitched circle using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I adhered the circle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I adhered the butterfly that I fussy cut from the Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set in Soft Suede In on a strip of Very Vanilla cardstock.  I sponged the edges of the strip with my Garden Green Ink to soften them a little.  I adhered the bee I fussy cut from the Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP to the corner of the sentiment strip with a tiny piece of a
Stampin’ Dimensional.  I adhered the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals and a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock.  I stamped the bottom with the grudge image from the Woven Heirloom stamp set in Terracotta Tile Ink.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Terracotta Tile mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Bird Ballad Laser-Cut card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the bottom front of the envelope that comes with the Bird Ballad Laser-Cut cards with the grudge image from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Terracotta Tile Ink.  I adhered a panel of the Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and will give it a try.

Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up Floral Essence Thank You Card

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers.  How was everyone’s weekend?  Did anyone do anything fun?  I went for a ‘walk’ with my husband and daughter to Duke Foundation which is right near where I live.  There are beautiful gardens, landscaping and waterfalls throughout the foundation.  There are bridges that go over different lakes on the property, one in particular leads to a meditation garden which is simply gorgeous.  Our walk ended up being over 3 hours and 7 1/2 miles long.

For today’s card I used a few different stamp sets.  I picked one for my focal image, one for the stripes and 2 different ones for the sentiments.  I like mixing stamps set on cards to give it a different look sometimes.  I was pretty happy how my card came out and all I used was Stamp, Ink and Paper, the basics to card making.   Here’s my card.

My card was inspired by 2 challenges.  First was the Colour & Sketch Challenge #326.  Here are their colors.

The other one that inspired me was the Just Add Ink Challenge #462.  Here is their sketch.

I started by stamping the sketched flower from the Stampin’ Up Floral Essence Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a panel of Whisper White cardstock.  I stamped the solid flowers from the Floral Essence stamp set on either side of the sketched flower in Gorgeous Grape Ink using the masking technique.  I stamped the leaves from the Floral Essence stamp set around the flowers in Mossy Meadow Ink.  I stamped the center of the flowers in Sahara Sand Ink stamping off once.  I colored the sketched flower in using my Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Light Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends Marker to color the leaves.  I adhered the artwork to a Gorgeous Grape mat using Snail.

On a Whisper White card front I stamped the distressed filigree image from the Stampin’ Up Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set using Calypso Coral and Mossy Meadow Inks.  I adhered the card front to a Gorgeous Grape card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the top corner of the artwork, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up New Wonders Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on an angle.  I adhered the matted artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the larger solid flower image from the Floral Essence stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the bottom corner of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the smaller solid flower image from the Floral Essence stamp set in Gorgeous Grape Ink, stamping off once, on either side of the Calypso Coral flower.  I stamped the leaves from the Floral Essence stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink around the flowers.  I stamped the flower centers in Sahara Sand Ink stamping off once.  I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Well Said Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of the Whisper White panel.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Gorgeous Grape card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the flowers from the Floral Essence stamp set on the envelope front the same way I did on the inner liner.  I stamped the distressed filigree image from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set on the envelope flap the same way I did on the card front.

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

Stampin’ Up Woven Heirlooms Sympathy Card

Good Thursday morning my fellow stampers.  How is everyone doing today?

For today I have a really quick and easy card for you that showcases one of the new Designer Series Papers that just came out in the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog.  Take a look.

I started with a panel of Mosaic Mood Specialty Designer Series Paper and adhered it to a Terracotta Tile card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Woven Heirlooms Cling Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink along the bottom section of the card base..

It always amazes me how one small panel of DSP can make such a beautiful card.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Early Espresso Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the small filigree image from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in the top two corners in Terracotta Tile Ink.  I stamped the border image from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set in Terracotta Tile Ink along the bottom of the Very Vanilla panel.  I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the Terracotta Tile card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope.  I stamped the border image from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set along the bottom front of the envelope in Terracotta Tile Ink.  I adhered a panel of the Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.  There you have it.  With a little DSP you can make the most beautiful cards ever.  You don’t need to add embellishments or anything.

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