Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern

Can we call this Wacky Wednesday? That is usually the way it goes. Hope your day is going fantastic.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Stamp Set and the new 2021-2023 In colors Classic Stamp Pads, along with the Ornate Frames Dies, the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder, and a butterfly from the Brilliant Wings Dies.

Sunday Stamps has some great colors for their challenge this week, so I have chosen to participate as their colors match the new In colors so well.

I started with a card base of Soft Succulent card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder. The embossed panel is adhered to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A Basic White card stock panel is cropped using a die from the Ornate Frame Dies. This panel is also adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using the Forever Fern Stamp Set and the new In Colors the images are stamped in Polished Pink, Evening Evergreen, Pale Papaya and an old basic Calypso Coral ink. Once all are stamped they are cropped using the Forever Flourishing Dies. I then arranged them on the Basic White card stock panel, took a picture so I would know how to adhere them on the panel and then adhered. I cropped a butterfly from Basic White card stock using a butterfly die from the Brilliant Wing Dies.

Using the dot stamp from the Forever Fern Stamp Set, dots are stamped in Evening Evergreen around the floral arrangement. A greeting is stamped in Soft Succulent ink on the Basic White panel in the upper corner. A Champagne Basic Jewel is popped beside the greeting.

Two images from the Forever Fern Stamp Set is stamped in Pale Papaya and Evening Evergreen ink on a Basic White panel.

A medium Basic White envelope gets art using Forever Fern stamped to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow

Terrific Tuesday everyone, hope your day is going fantastic with no glitches.

The card I am sharing today is the Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Stamp Set along with the Scalloped Contours Dies and the Stitched With Whimsy Dies.

The inspiration today is from Make My Monday – theme Floral Birthday. I made a bouquet of flowers with a ribbon around it. The happy birthday sentiment is inside. I always like to put something other than Happy Birthday on the card front so the person receiving is surprised as to what kind of card I am sending. I like to put “Thinking of You” or “Hello” on the front.

This was a quick and simple card to make as everything is created using Basic White card stock. The base has a panel of the card stock embossed using the Subtle Embossing Folder adhered to the front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A panel of the Basic White card stock is cropped using the Scalloped Contour Dies, I believe this is the largest one, it is then embossed using the Stitched With Whimsy Dies. This panel is popped on with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Before the Scalloped Contour panel is popped on a greeting from the Shaded Summer Stamp Set is stamped in Balmy Blue ink. A bunch of flowers is stamped using Smoky Slate ink in the middle of the panel. Another bunch is stamped and fussy cut and then popped on each side of the bunch stamped on the Basic White panel. All the flowers are colored using Balmy Blue and Granny Apple Green ink. The Blushing Bride twine I used to make a bow is from a Paper Pumpkin Kit. It is popped on with a Glue Dot. Three Pearl Basic Jewels are placed around the card front.

A panel of Basic White card stock is cropped using the Scalloped Contour largest die and the sentiment from the Shaded Summer Stamp Set and the Tranquil Thoughts Stamp Set, soon to be retired, is stamped in Balmy Blue ink.

A medium Basic White envelope gets embossed on the envelope flap using the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder.

Happy Monday. Have a great week.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set, the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, and Stampin’ Blends Markers. I was looking on Pinterest for a Fun Fold card and I found this one created by Melissa’s Crafting Treehouse.

I chose the daisies and the bees from the Card Concept Challenge as my theme for my card today.

The card base is So Saffron card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Tasteful Texture Embossing Folder. The embossed panel is adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stamp the flowers from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set in Smoky Slate ink. Color the flowers in So Saffron, Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather, and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers.

The sentiment on the first panel with a sentiment comes from the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set. It was too long for the panel so I stamped it in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and cut the line apart and placed it on the panel in a zig-zag design, adding three bees.

A panel of Dandy Garden DSP is adhered to the first panel above. A bee and dragonfly are fussy cut and popped on the panel. The Very Vanilla card stock panel with the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. The flowers are stamped from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set also and colored using the same Stampin’ Blends Markers.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Dandy Garden DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! You’re A Peach

Happy Thursday, I hope your day has been super. These days my blogs are later in the day, I have nurse duty during the day and once home I can create a card and blog.

The card I am sharing today, is made with the skills I learned in kindergarten, you know cut & paste. The only exception is the greeting from the Happy Birthday Chick Stamp Set. I’ve use You’re A Peach and Beauty of The Earth DSP to create this card.

My inspiration design comes from the Tuesday Morning Sketches.

The card base is Pear Pizzazz with a mat of Calypso Coral for the Beauty of the Earth DSP panel. A panel of the You’re A Peach DSP is matted on a panel of Calypso Coral card stock and popped over the Beauty of the Earth DSP panel. A length of Pale Papaya & White ribbon is wrapped all the panels once they were adhered to each other.

Peach blossoms are fussy cut and popped over several of the blossoms on the You’re a Peach DSP panel. Three were cropped using a small circle die, then fussy cut blossoms were popped over the ones on the circles. These were popped just under the edge of the ribbon using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. Happy Birthday is stamped in Pear Pizzazz ink on a scrap of Pear Pizzazz card stock and flagged on one end and popped over the ribbon using Glue Dots.

A strip of the You’re A Peach DSP is fussy cut and adhered to the bottom of a Basic White card stock panel, then the panel is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Glue.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the You’re A Peach DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms

Happy Wednesday! If you have been keeping up with Mary and Amy it looks as if they are having loads of fun, and special treats to eat. They well deserve this fun trip.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Stamp Set. It is a carryover to the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. I also use Love You Always DSP, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Meadow Moments Embossing Folder along the the card stock.

My color inspiration comes from the Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge. I have pink cherry blossoms.

The theme for Make My Monday Challenge is Sympathy. I have made one with the greeting Thinking of You and a lovely sentiment inside.

This will be a fun challenge as it is a fun fold card challenge — Creative Creases Challenge.

The card base is Sahara Sand card stock. This is a fun fold card so there are two score lines to fold. On the front panel, a panel of Blushing Bride card stock is embossed using the Meadow Moments Embossing Folder, then adhered to the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Two different design panels from Love You Always DSP is adhered to the card base. You can see from the card above where the DSP is adhered.

Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies two different size panels are cropped using two of the dies. I believe it is the largest and next to the largest. One is from Sahara Sand card stock the other Basic White card stock and this one has the sentiment stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink.

Cherry blossoms are also stamped in the corner and colored using Rococo Rose and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers, along with the color lifter marker. Mine was a bit dry, so I poured a little alcohol in a glass cup and dipped the marker in it then dropped the alcohol on the images of the cherries to get the color I desired.

A loopy bow is made using Basic White twine and popped on one of the flowers stems using Multipurpose Glue Several sequins are placed around the entire card.

Cherry blossoms are also stamped on the panel of Basic White card stock that is adhered to the back panel. They are colored with the same markers as the other blossoms.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of Love You Always DSP applied to the envelope flap.
