Stampin’ Up! Tropical Oasis

April 26, 2020 admin Comments 10 comments

Happy Day everyone! I hope you are going to have a blessed Sunday.

The card today is created using Stampin’ Up! Tropical Oasis Memories and More Card Pack, Grace’s Garden Stamp Set, the Beautifully Braided Stamp Set, and Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper.

The inspiration for the card today comes from the Watercooler Wednesday – Dawn’s Challenge: All About Occasions Challenge.

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Cajun Craze card stock. Then a mat of Stampin’ Up! Pear Pizzazz card stock. Next comes a card from the Tropical Oasis Memories and More Card Pack that has been trimmed to fit the card. A flower is fussy cut from the Tropical Oasis DSP and popped across a piece of the Stampin’ Up! Braided Linen Trim.

The sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Braided Stamp Set and is stamped in Pear Pizzazz ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock with a flower stamped and colored in the right corner.

To finish the card project, the envelope is given a panel of the Tropical Oasis DSP.

All the card cuts are at the end of this post.

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! Beautiful Moments

April 22, 2020 admin Comments 8 comments

Hello everyone! I hope your day has started great and will end the same way! Happy Birthday to my oldest grandson. We have teased him about being an Earth baby since it is Earth Day. Happy Earth Day everyone.

The card I am sharing today is one my great-granddaughter did the artwork on. She saw me making a card with the embossed image and wanted to do one of her own. When I tried to show her how to watercolor it, (she is 4 yrs. old) her response was ( be ready for a good laugh) “GG everyone is an individual and everyone has their own ideas how to do something, so GG I am doing it this way and my card is going to be fabulous.” These are the exact words of a 4-year-old. Where did she get that wisdom?🙂

The design layout for the card comes from the Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge.

All the card cuts are at the end of this post.

Stampin’ Up! First Frost

March 31, 2020 admin Comments 8 comments

The inspiration for today’s challenge is from {Mojo} Monday. I chose the middle layout.

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Blackberry Bliss card stock card base.

Next, add a layer of the Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed 6″ x 6″ Designer Paper. Adhere to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Cut a strip of the Stampin’ Up! Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper and mat on a strip of Blackberry Bliss card stock. Adhere to the Best Dressed panel. Cut a small panel of the Best Dressed DSP and mat on Blackberry Bliss card stock also. Adhere it over the Perennial Essence DSP. Crop a circle using a die from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Shaped Dies. Stamp the greeting in Stampin’ Up! Blackberry Bliss Classic ink using a stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful You Stamp Set. Stamp two roses in Blackberry Bliss ink (doesn’t look like Blackberry Bliss, does it?) using a stamp from the Stampin’ Up! First Frost Stamp Set. Fussy cut and pop on the circle. Add 3 Stampin’ Up! Pearl Basic Jewels.

On a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock stamp the sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Sending You Thoughts Stamp Set. Fussy cut a rose from the DSP and adhere in the corner.

To finish the project, give a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope a panel of the Best Dressed DSP.

Good morning stampers! I hope your weekend was great fun-filled with family as we are still in the social distancing stage. Those who had to work thank you for going to the war zones for us.

This card features the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper.

The inspiration for the design comes from CAS(E) This Sketch .

Space the DSP pieces so as to give them a border. Once they are adhered down using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, adhere to the card base. Stamp the greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Band Together Stamp Set in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a small panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock, crop using a die from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Die Set. Add a single rhinestone, pop on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Crop a panel of Whisper White using a die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and stamp a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tulips Stamp Set. Stamp a cross from the Stampin’ Up! Hold On To Hope Stamp Set in Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather Classic Ink. stamp Off once before stamping over the sentiment. Adhere to the Stampin’ Up!

Stampin’ Up! Botanical Bliss

March 28, 2020 admin Comments 8 comments

Happy Saturday, I hope you are staying and staying safe. Boring isn’t it when we are forced to do it! What is it we often say, if only I had a little more time to get things done! Well, you have it now!!

My card today features a stamp set from the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog Botanical Bliss and if I remember correctly it may even be from 2018 but it is still a current stamp. Since it 2018, it will probably be a retiree this year. I loved this set especially the dies, so if you find that you like it, you may want to go ahead and purchase while you can. Two stamp sets from the Jan-June 2020 Mini Catalog are used for the sentiment, Peaceful Moments and Honey Bee.

The inspiration for my challenge comes from Time out Challenge –Lots or a Little Purple –use purple for Epilepsy Awareness.

.Start with a Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Grape card stock card base with a panel of the same embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder. For me, it is easier to emboss a separate panel and adhere to the card base than to try and emboss the front of the card base.

Cut a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock and emboss using the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Embossing Folder. Next, crop 2 bird die cuts (a bird from the second panel will be used later) from a panel of Gorgeous Grape card stock using the bird die from the Botanical Tag Dies. On this cropped panel stamp Happy Birthday in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink using the stamp from Botanical Bliss. Pop this on the Whisper White embossed panel using Stampin’ Up! Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stamp three flowers from the stamp set on scraps of Whisper White card stock again using the black ink. Color the flowers using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends in Light Granny Apple Green for the leaves and Dark Highland Heather and Light Mango Melody for the flowers. Arrange the three flowers across the bottom of the Gorgeous Grape cropped panel. Pop the bird in the corner of the Whisper White panel. Wrap a length of the Stampin’ Up! Tricolor Ribbon around the panel, adhere on the back of the panel using tape. Make a bow and pop over the ribbon. Add two Stampin’ Up! Nobel Peacock Rhinestones and a Pearl Basic Jewel to the card front and it is finished.

On a panel of Whisper White card stock stamp two flowers in opposite corners and color using the same Stampin’ Blends as I used on the card front. Stamp the sentiments using stamps from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Stamp Set and the Honey Bee Stamp Set in black ink. Adhere the panel to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Give the flap of a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope a panel of Stampin’ Up! 6″ x 6″ Brights Designer Series Paper and your card project is finished.
