Stampin’ Up! Toile Christmas

October 19, 2019 admin Comments 6 comments

Happy Weekend. It is in full swing. Hope your plans are for rest, fun, rest more fun! Have a great weekend!

The card I am sharing today is from the Stampin’ Up! Toile Christmas stamp set and the Stampin’ Up! Toile Tiding Designer Series Paper.

My inspiration for the card comes from the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge — Heidi’s Masculine “Anything Goes” Challenge. I have chosen to make a masculine Christmas card as I have many friends that are single and this would be suitable for them.

You can see all the snips and clips I made creating this card. The card base is Stampin’ Up! Garden Green card stock with a panel of Garden Green card stock embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder as is the Stampin’ Up! Cherry Cobbler card stock mat for the Stampin’ Up! Toile Tiding Designer Series Paper.

The cardinal from the Stampin’ Up! Toile Christmas stamp set is stamped using Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock. The cardinal is then colored using Stampin’ Blend Markers in Light Real Red, Light Cherry Cobbler, Light Old Olive, and Light Mango Medley.

The word Merry from the Stampin’ Up! Merry Christmas dies is cropped four times from Stampin’ Up! Cherry Cobbler card stock and adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. After popping the word on the card, it was highlighted with a Wink of Stella to give some sparkle.

The inside sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Toile Christmas stamp set is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Garden Green ink.

The Stampin’ Up! Very Vanilla envelope gets a bit of the Stampin’ Up! Toile Tidings DSP on the front corner and the envelope flap cover with it.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad

October 17, 2019 admin Comments 6 comments

Happy Thursday everyone! Hope your day is going to be fantastic and you accomplish much of whatever you want to do!

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Wells Said Bundle.

The design inspiration for the challenge I am entering today comes from Case This Sketch Challenge. I was skeptic at first when I saw this sketch, thinking what can I do, but once started my card has turned out rather well. I just may use this sketch for another card even if there is not a challenge.

This was an easy card again to make, just a few snips and cuts and a bit of fussy cutting and it was finished. The card base is Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock with a mat for the art pieces that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder.

The art pieces have a Basic Black mat and a Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake art piece that has been sprinkled with Tuxedo Memento Black ink using the sprinkle stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Waterfront Stamp Set.

The feathers are fussy cut from a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad DSP. The feathers make me think of Fall leaves that have changed colors, therefore, I am also playing at the Paper Players because my feathers are the colors in their challenge.

I cropped the word “thanks” 4 times using the die from the Stampin’ Up! Well Written Dies, three from Basic Black card stock and one from Stampin’ Up! Cajun Craze card stock.

The inside sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Well Said Stamp Set is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Cajun Craze ink on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock.

The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets covered using a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad DSP.

Stampin’ Up! Christmastime

October 16, 2019 admin Comments 6 comments

Happy Wednesday ya’ll!

The card I am sharing today is from the Stampin’ Up! Christmastime Is Here Suite. This is a limited edition stamp set and will be available for sale on November 1.

My design inspiration comes from the Sketch Saturday challenge.

The card cuts are at the end of this post. This was an easy card. This is the way the process goes, cut the Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow card stock mat. Cut and adhere with Liquid Glue a panel to be embossed with the Stampin’ Up! Sweater Knit 3D Embossing Folder.

Cut and adhere the banners from Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow card stock, Cherry Cobbler card stock and the soon to be for sale Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper. See the picture below to see this suite.

The Cherry Cobbler focal panel is also from the same DSP. The rose is fussy cut from this DSP and popped on the center of the card. The greeting is stamped on a sliver of Cherry Cobbler card stock using Versa Mark and then heat embossed using Stampin’ Up! Gold Embossing Powder. Several pearls from Stampin’ Up! Pearl Basic Jewels are randomly placed around the card front.

The sentiment is from Stampin’ Up! Everything Is Rosy Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow ink. Roses are fussy cut from the DSP and adhered with Liquid Glue to the corners.

A rose was fussy cut and adhered to the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope front and a panel of the Cherry Cobbler DSP is adhered to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Beauty with Snow Front

October 15, 2019 admin Comments 14 comments

Happy Tuesday all! A bit late today, but life got in the way so you know how that goes you deal with it! My card today is not one you send with joy and happiness, but we should make a few to have on hand at such a time.

The card I am sharing today is from two stamp sets, Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Snow Front Stamp Set. You need both these sets in your stash as there are so many options with these two sets.

My challenge for the day is with two challenges.

Just Us Girls — Frame It

And… Stamping Sensations — Trees and/or Leaves and/or Autumn

This was one of those cards where you can not decide what the card base will be and you cut and emboss and each time come up with Nah, I don’t like that color with this. Finally, you find one that you think does pretty well with the colors in the art piece. The card base is Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Grape card stock with an embossed layer using the Stampin’ Up! Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder instead of embossing the card front. This works best for me.

The art piece is a square cropped using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Shapes Dies. It is also framed using another square of the same size. The art piece is a combination of Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Snow Front Stamp Set. I stamped the trees first in Tuxedo Memento Black ink then added the grass and water using Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Pencils and a Stampin’ Up! Aqua Painter.

I added little snippets of dried grass also stamped in black ink. The mountains are stamped in Stampin’ Up! Smoky Slate ink. Again, I used watercolor pencils for the sky. Stampin’ Up! Gingham Gala Adhesive-Backed Sequins are used on the card front randomly. The greeting is stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink using the “Thinking of You” stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Colorful Seasons Stamp Set.

The inside sentiment is from Stampin’ Up! Flourishing Phrases Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Grape ink on a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock. Trees are stamped in the corners using Gorgeous Grape ink also.

I stamped trees in Gorgeous Grape ink on the front and the flap of my Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope.

Stampin’ Up! Everything Is Rosy

October 14, 2019 admin Comments 12 comments

Happy Monday everyone, or is it still Sunday– whichever have a great week ahead!

The card I am sharing today is from the Stampin’ Up! Everything Is Rosy Product Medley. This is a product that was available in May and Stampin’ Up! has decided to bring it back to us again.

My challenge is with CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #342.

Do you think my card looks anything like these blues and pinks? Nay! Mine is in the Orange family– Can you guess what I did? I used my Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends to color them in the orange family, I used Light Pumpkin Pie and Light Old Olive to color over the pinks and blue. Makes for a nice color –right? Since there were blue and pink flowers with the suite, I just used three of them and colored and popped on the Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock base that had been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Brick and Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. The happy is cropped from the happy dies that come in the Stampin’ Up! Well Written Dies.

The inside sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! Well Said Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy ink. The flowers in the corner are also from the Everything Is Rose Product Medley. I colored the same as the flowers on the card front.
