Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Nature

April 24, 2024 admin Comments 4 comments

My card I am sharing today is a birthday card for my grandson and is created using Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Nature stamp set, Stampin’ Up! Lazy Days stamp set, Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set, Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder, and Stampin’ Up! Meadow Dies.

I am entering Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenge for this card.

I started with a Blueberry Bushel cardstock card base, adding a layer of Basic White cardstock embossed using Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder, then a half layer of Blueberry Bushel cardstock embossed with the same embossing folder.

I colored a piece of Basic White card stock using Blueberry Bushel ink and a Blending Brush. Using a die from Encircled In Nature dies, I lightly drew a circle on the colored piece. I stamped the trees from Stampin’ Up! Encircled in Nature stamp set in Shaded Spruce ink over the edge of the circle. The moon and stars were stamped with Versa Mark ink, sprinkled with White Embossing Powder and heat set using a heat tool. The art piece is popped over the embossed pieces using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A die from Encircled in Nature Dies is die cut from a piece of Pecan Pie cardstock and adhered around the lightly drawn circle. Trees are die cut from Shaded Spruce and Old Olive cardstock. The trees are popped around the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow stamp set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White cardstock, die cut using a die from Meadow Dies. Two pieces of Gold Faux Leather trim is looped through the ends of the greeting piece and popped on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Lazy Days stamp set and Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set are stamped in Memento Black ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. Trees are stamped in the corner of the panel using Shaded Spruce ink.

A piece of Blueberry Bushel cardstock is embossed with the same embossing folder as used on the front of the card. It is then adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

AMY’S INKIN’ KREW APRIL 2024 BLOG HOP

April 9, 2024 admin Comments 17 comments

Welcome! It that time, the 2nd Tuesday of the month you have been waiting for with excitement, a fun team blog hop from Amy’s Inkin’ Krew. The theme this month is “for the ladies/girls” and you can interpret that any way that you’d like and use any products that you’d like for your project. You are in for a treat seeing all the talent these ladies present to you. Sit back with your favorite beverage and enjoy. You will see cards that will inspire you to get creative as you jump from blog to blog.

My card I am sharing today is created using a card from Sweet Thoughts Memories and More Card Pack, Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow stamp set for the greeting, Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set and Stampin’ Up! Hooray For Surprises stamp set for the sentiment inside the card.

The card base is a card from Sweet Thoughts Memories and More Cards & Envelope pack. The Pretty Peacock one is used. One of the large butterflies with flowers is used as the card focal point. All the flowers on the butterfly are covered with Wink of Stella to give it some glitz and sparkle, but I do not know how well it shows up. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow stamp set (retiring soon) . A few sequins from Adhesive Backed Sequin Trio are popped around the card front.

The sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set and Stampin’ Up! Hooray For Surprises stamp set is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. Flowers are fussy cut from one of the cards from Sweet Thoughts Memories and More Card Pack and adhered across the bottom of the panel.

An envelope from Sweet Thoughts Memories & More Cards & Envelopes is used instead of a Basic White that is always decorated on the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Coffee With Friends — Enjoy Your Day

April 4, 2024 admin Comments 7 comments

Kind of been under the weather the past few days and just did not have the energy to even make a card. It was a chore to just walk across the floor. Haven’t had one of these in a while. It is so irritating when it happens. All I can do is lie down until it passes. Lasted longer this time, but much better now. Have you enjoyed my tale of Whoa!?😁

My card today is created using Stampin’ Up! Coffee With Friends stamp set. I also used one of the wood trees from March 2024 Paper Pumpkin and a piece of one of the cards. I believe these cards in this Paper Pumpkin coordinate well with Meandering Meadow Designer Series Paper.

My challenge for this card is Krafty Chicks Challenge. I just finished as Guest Designer there for the month of March. It was quiet an experience. Makes me appreciate with lot of admiration for the ones that are in charge of Challenges.

Ellibelle’s Crafty Wednesday – April Challenge

My card base is Highland Heather cardstock with a layer of Gorgeous Grape as a mat for the piece of the card from the March Paper Pumpkin that I used. The Paper Pumpkin piece was trimmed and adhered to the Gorgeous Grape cardstock mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue

A wood tree from the Paper Pumpkin is colored with Granny Apple Green ink and a Blending Brush. I was a bit afraid to use my Blends because it being wood, I thought it might ruin the tip of the pen. I find that just coloring a rhinestone or pearl fuzzies up the tip. The Paper Pumpkin piece was trimmed and adhered to the Gorgeous Grape cardstock mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

An image from Stampin’ Up! Coffee With Friends stamp set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White cardstock. It is colored using Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends. The image is then fussy cut and popped on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhesive Backed Dragon Flies and Birds are popped around the card front.

The sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set and Stampin’ Up! Lazy Days stamp set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a panel of Basic White card stock. A scrap from Meandering Meadow Designer Series Paper is adhered down the left side of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

An envelope from the March Paper Pumpkin is used as the envelope instead of decorating the flap of a Basic White envelope.

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Cards

Thank you to each and every person who sent me a birthday card. Each one means so much to me, you will never know. Thank you for making me feel so special with all the cards.

These are some of the birthday cards I received. I have grouped them in fours. If you don’t see your card, it probably hasn’t arrived. I received cards today that were dated two weeks ago. It could even be like the cards I sent my sisters in November. I received one back two weeks ago and the other one three. They were undeliverable according to the sticker on the envelope. No such address, but the addresses were correct.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today. Come back tomorrow for one of my own creations.
