Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch

Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch

Hey everyone, can you believe it is Friday already, seems it was just here yesterday!  I’ve heard that time flies when you get older and you wonder where the time has gone. I will let you know when I get older if this is true!  It seems as such, especially this past week with all the hecticness (is that a word?) that has gone on around here.

The cute little cheerful card, I am featuring today is created with Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper (this is one of the exclusive coordination products, the DSP coordinates with several Stampin’ Up! stamp sets).  Also used is a Sale-A-Bration stamp set — Sending You Thoughts (free with a $50 purchase until March 31), Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Greetings and the Stone 3D Embossing Folder, another Sale-A-Bration item.

The design inspiration for today comes from the {Mojo} Monday Challenge.  

And…

Wordart Wednesday

Start with a base of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock, add a layer of the same embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Stone 3D Embossing Folder.

Add two panels that have been cropped using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly next to the largest die, popped on using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Crop a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock circle using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Shape Dies.  Stamp a greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set in Stampin’ Up! Calypso Coral ink. Add a bannered strip over the two Pleased As Punch rectangles and pop the circle over it. Fussy cut the umbrellas and tiny flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper, pop all of these on the circle.  Add a few Stampin’ Up! Nobel Peacock Rhinestones and your card front is finished.

Crop a panel of Whisper White card stock using the largest dies from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Rectangle Dies, stamp the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set and Sending You Thoughts from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure in Calypso Coral ink.  Fussy cut two umbrellas from the Pleased As Punch DSP and adhere to the corners.

A panel of Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper is given to the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap and your project for the day is complete.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.  My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself.  Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me.  Have a blessed day!

Stampin’ Up! Lovely Day

Stampin’ Up! Lovely Day

I hope you will have a Lovely Thursday and no rain or snow!

The card I am featuring today is created using the flower stamp from the Stampin’ Up! February 2020 Paper Pumpkin called Lovely Day.  I believe it is a larger version of the flowers on the Sale-A-Bration Happy Birthday To You Stamp Set.

The inspiration for my design comes from the Tuesday Morning Sketches Challenge. This week’s design is by Melissa Craig.

I am also playing at Addicted To Stamps and More — Make Your Mark

And…

Wordart Wednesday — Anything Goes

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Rich Razzleberry card stock base, add a panel of the same card stock, embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder matted on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock. Pop it on the card base and you are ready for the banners and flower.

The banners are cut from Stampin’ Up! 6″ x 6″ Regal Designer Series Paper and 6″ x 6″ 2019-2021 Incolor Designer Series Paper. They are both matted on a Whisper White mat.  The Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Die is used to crop the label panel for the greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set and for the flower to be popped onto.  Three Stampin’ Up! Rhinestone Basic Jewels are colored using a Stampin’ Up! Dark Rich Razzleberry Stampin’ Blends Marker, then popped on the label.

Stamp the flower, using Tuxedo Memento Black ink, from the February 2020 Paper Pumpkin on Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Thick card stock, the flower is watercolored using Stampin’ Up! Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive ink.  The smaller flower is stamped on the sentiment panel. A tiny bow made using Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Baker’s Twine is popped on the flower using a Stampin’ Up! Glue Dot.

The sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Hold On To Hope Stamp Set is stamped in Rich Razzleberry ink on the Whisper White panel.  As I said earlier the flowers are from the February 2020 Paper Pumpkin Lovely Day Stamp Set and are also watercolored.

A panel of Stampin’ Up! 6″ x 6″ 2019-2021 Incolor Designer Series Paper is given to the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap and your project for the day is complete.

Stampin’ Up! Bonanza Buddies

Stampin’ Up! Bonanza Buddies

Happy Monday everyone to another soggy, wet day in Georgia.  I think I may have to buy a rowboat.  I hope your day is going fantastic so far.

The card featured is a new to me stamp set.  It is from the Stampin’ Up! Jan.-June 2020 Mini Catalog — Bonanza Buddies Stamp Set.  It was probably created with making children’s’ cards in mind, but I think with the right paper and design you can use for adult cards.

I have two challenges that inspired by design and layout for today.

Try Stamping on Tuesday with this cute heart design. 

And…

Sunday Stamps Challenge with this cute design featuring Tag You’re It.

I’ve done a combination of both so I can use both designs.

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Pretty Peacock card base, add a panel of Terracotta Tile card stock which I forgot to emboss using the Subtle Embossing Folder.

Cut a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock to use as a base for the following.  From the Stampin’ Up! Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper and  See A Silhouette Designer Series Paper cut narrow strips that you will glue on the Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  You can see the DSP’s used below.

Once you have all the strips glued down allow the panel to dry for a short while so all the strips will be adhered well.  After drying crop with a Stampin’ Up! Rectangle Stitched Die.  I believe I used the next to the largest die.  A small strip was left after I cropped the panel so you will see it on the sentiment panel.

Crop your tags using the Stampin’ Up! Tag Topper Punch and Stampin’ Up! Terracotta Tile and Daffodil Delight card stock.  Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Twine in Grapefruit Grove was used to make the frayed knots at the top of the tag along with a bit of Stampin’ Up1 Braided Line Trim.

Using a die from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Be Mine Dies, a heart is cropped from the Stampin’ Up! Birthday Bonanza DSP and popped on the tag.  An extra little bear is fussy cut and popped over the one on the heart using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.  This gives a bit more dimension to the card.

The greeting from the Stampin’ Up! A Little Lace Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and then the words are snipped apart so adhering to the tag is made easier.

Stamp your sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bonanza Buddies Stamp Set on a panel of Whisper White card stock using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink.  The piece that was cropped from the focal panel is adhered with Multipurpose Liquid Glue  around the right edge and lower portion of the panel.

Give a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope a panel of the Birthday Bonanza DSP to the envelope flap, add 3 of the fussy cut little bears that scrapped to the edge of the flap and the project is finished.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.  My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself.  Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me.  Have a blessed day!

Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms

Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms

Happy Sunday everyone, I hope you have a fantastic day.  We still have a bit of snow hanging around making the landscape look ugly as it melts.  Hopefully, this will be all we get for the year.  

I am featuring the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Stamp Set in today’s cards.  I am also using the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Sending You Thoughts Stamp Set.

The design inspiration comes from this week’s challenge with Case This Sketch. 

 

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Pool Party card stock with a background panel from the Stampin’ Up! Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper that has been matted on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede card stock.  The Happy Birthday is from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set.

A  short panel of Stampin’ Up! Pool Party card stock is embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Hammered Metal 3D Embossing Folder.

A panel of Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock is cropped using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Dies and the blossoms from the Forever Blossoms Stamp Set is stamped in Soft Suede ink on the Petal Pink panel.  The blossoms are then colored using  Light and Dark Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers and Light Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Marker.  A small Whisper White Baker’s Twine bow is popped on the blossoms stem.

The sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! Sending You Thoughts Stamp Set, stamped in Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock the same as the blossoms are.  The blossoms are then colored using Stampin’ Up! Light and Dark Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends  Marker and Light Granny Apple Green Stampin Blends Marker.

In finishing my project for today, I gave a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap a panel of the Parisian Blossoms DSP to match the card front.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.  My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself.  Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me.  Have a blessed day!
