Stampin’ Up! Mountain Air with A Good Man

Stampin’ Up! Mountain Air with A Good Man

Good Morning everyone!   We’ve made it another day, so we must have stayed safe yesterday.

My card today is a combination of Stampin’ Up! Mountain Air and A Good Man.  It makes for a great card.

Here are my challenges for the day.  Addicted To Stamps And More — Theme Make Your Mark.

Watercooler Wednesday –Helen’s Challenge:  All About Occasions —  my second entry for the week —

Word Art Wednesday –Anything Goes 

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock base with a panel of the same embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Hammered Metal  Embossing Folder.  Wrap a length of Stampin’ Up! Braided Linen Trim around the embossed panel and adhered on the back.

Using a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock panel as the base to build your art piece, stamp the dock first using Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake Classic Ink.  Color using a Stampin’ Up! Light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Marker.  Color the bird red using a Stampin’ Up Light Real Red Stampin’  Blends Marker.  Stamp the dock on a piece of masking paper and fussy cut, then adhered to the dock image.

Stamp the mountain image from the Stampin’ Up! Mountain Air Stamp Set using Stampin’ Up! Smoky Slate Classic Ink.  Stamp off once before stamping on the panel.  Next stamp the water from the Stampin’ Up! High Tide Stamp Set in Stampin’ Up! Seaside Spray Classic Ink.  Stamp the dirt using the sand/dirt image from the High Tide Stamp Set.  Stamp the grass image from the Stampin’ Up! By The Dock Stamp Set in Stampin’ Up! Granny Apple Green Classic Ink.

Stamp the man and child image from the Stampin’ Up! A Good Man using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink.  Let it dry well as it takes the darker inks a few minutes to dry.  You can speed the process by using your heat tool.  Color them using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends Markers in Light Call Me Clover, Light & Dark Crumb Cake, Light Flirty Flamingo, Dark Balmy Blue, Dark Daffodil Delight, and Light Petal Pink.  Using Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Twine in Crumb Cake loop and braid a length of the twine through an anchor from the Stampin’ Up! Sail Away Trinkets.

Stamp a greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Very Versailles Stamp Set in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.

Adhere a panel of the 6″ x 6″ Brights  DSP to a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap and your card project is finished.

Stampin’ Up! Happy Birthday No Matter The Weather

Stampin’ Up! Happy Birthday No Matter The Weather

Good Day everyone!  I hope you are staying in and staying safe and craftin’ away.  For some reason, I can’t seem to get my mind around card making and usually, that’s my favorite thing to do.  Too many distractions with all that is happening around us, I suppose.

My challenges for the day are The Sisterhood of Crafters — Spring is the theme.

And…

Watercooler Wednesday — Helen’s Challenge All About Occasions

 

Today, I am using the March Paper Pumpkin to help create my card.  I made my card and then saw the one Mary Fish had created when I received her post, great minds think alike, but I will say I CASEd hers since ours are similar.   Below is a picture of how the original kit looked when cards were finished.  Click here or on the picture and you can see a short video of the original creations.

 

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock base with a panel of the same embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder.

Crop the Paper Pumpkin piece using a die from the Stampin’ Up! Rectangle Stitched Dies. Mat with a panel of Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock and pop back in the spot it was cropped from.  Fussy cut an umbrella from the Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch DSP. Pop on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stamp a greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Very Versailles Stamp Set in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock. Fussy cut another umbrella from the Pleased As Punch DSP and add one of the boot elements from the No Matter The Weather Paper Pumpkin.  Adhere the panel to the card base.

Adhere a panel of the Pleased As Punch DSP to a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap and your card 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!

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Grape card stock base and a background panel of the same that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder.

Cut a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper (DSP) and adhere to the embossed panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Wrap a length of Stampin’ Up! 3/8″ Tricolor Ribbon around the DSP and embossed panel adhering on the back using Stampin’ Up! Glue Dots.

Crop an oval frame from  Stampin’ Up! Blackberry Bliss card stock and a circle from Stampin Up! Whisper White card stock using Stampin’ Up! Layering Oval Dies and Layering Circle Dies.

Stampin’ Up! Thanks Tropical Oasis

Stampin’ Up! Thanks Tropical Oasis

Good Day stampin’ friends and non-stampers also!  I hope your day is going swimmingly, yes it’s raining here again.  We probably won’t have a drop of rain when it gets summertime and it’s needed for the gardens.

My card today is an easy easy one.  It is created using the Stampin’ Up! Tropical Oasis Memories and More Card Pack.

The inspiration for the card comes from the Make My Monday Challenge. Their theme is something tropical.

And…

Artsystamper Digitals Challenge & Inspiration Blog –  Their theme is lots of layers and that I certainly have as I have four layers but it looks like three as the bottom layer embossed with the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Embossing Folder is the same color as the card base.

 

Staring with a Stampin’ Up! Old Olive card stock base and a background panel of the same that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Embossing Folder.

Cut a panel of Stampin’ Up! So Saffron card stock and emboss using the Stampin’ Up! Coastal Weave Embossing Folder, add to the card base. Cut a panel of Stampin’ Up! Cajun Craze card stock and emboss using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder, add to the top of the So Saffron panel.

Add the cropped art panel from the Stampin’ Up! Tropical Oasis Memories & More Card Pack to the layers. Add a little bling from Stampin’ Up! Glitter Enamel Dots. The thanks is also from the Tropical Oasis Memories & More Card Pack.

There is no sentiment only a blank panel from the Tropical Oasis Memories & More Card Pack to write a note.

A Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap gets a panel of Stampin’ Up! Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper.

Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts

Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts

I hope everyone has had a fantastic weekend and you got to enjoy something other than staying inside?

It has taken me two days to get this card made, this was to be my card for Sunday but life kept getting in the way of getting it finished.  My grandson told me to just write up the blog and post.  I told him I had to have pictures to explain what I was writing.  Could you make a card with just instructions and no pictures?  In my quilting days, we would do mystery quilts, you didn’t know what it was going to look like until the quilt was finished.  Each week you made a block and once all the blocks needed were finished you put the quilt together.  Mary, Amy how about a mystery card?  You are always doing things to peak our interest!

My card for today is being entered into the Cardz For Galz Challenge.  Their theme is Spring flowers.

And…

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge — Their theme is flowers.

And…

The Time Out Challenges — The theme is Birthday.  Happy 6th Birthday Time Out!

The card I am featuring today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts Stamp Set, the Very Versailles Stamp Set, and the Parisian Beauty Stamp Set.  My card is a CASE of Christine Versluis.  You can see her card here.

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock base and a background panel of the same that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Tin Tile Embossing Folder.

Crop a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock using a die from the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Thoughts Dies. Stamp in Stampin’ Up! Smoky Slate ink the script stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Very Versailles Stamp Set.  Over this script, stamp the postage stamp and postage markings from the Stampin’ Up! Parisian Beauty Stamp Set.  Adhere this panel to the embossed Tin Tile panel that has been adhered to the Whisper White card base.

Stamp the flowers and leaves from the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set using Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather, Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry Bermuda Bay, Pretty Peacock, and Old Olive Classic Ink. Crop using the matching die from Nature’s Thoughts Dies.  Arrange the flowers and leaves, taking pictures as you go so you can remember how you arranged it. Stamp the greeting words on Whisper White card stock scraps using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink, Fussy cut and place around card front.

The sentiment stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a Whisper White panel is from Positive Thoughts Stamp Set, and Special Someone Stamp Set, and Heart to Heart Stamp Set.  Butterflies from the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set are stamped in Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry and Bermuda Bay Classic Ink.

A Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope is stamped using the butterfly stamp from the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set.  The butterflies are stamped in the same colors as the ones on the card front and inside panel.

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!

April Paper Pumpkin 

FOR THOSE YOU LOVE MOST: MY WONDERFUL FAMILY

 

At Paper Pumpkin, we believe in making a difference—especially when it comes to helping you build relationships through paper crafting. For April, we created a fun, family appreciation themed card kit that would make it easy for you to share your heart with those you love most: mom, dad, daughter, son, sister, and brother. April’s kit even includes Mother’s Day and Father’s Day sentiments, giving you the perfect way to show your appreciation for beloved parents on their special days with a beautiful, handmade card.

One more thing about this “fam-tastic” kit: The Paper Pumpkin team knows that everyone’s clan is unique. With that in mind, we provided sentiments that would include anyone in your life who feels like family; for instance, “brothers” and “sisters” who have helped you along the journey of life.

Check out our promotional video to learn more, then share the link on social media—or send it directly to someone you think may be interested. They won’t want to miss this kit!

I added the quote to this picture, I have had the quote forever it seems.  It is so true what it says.  Enjoy your family and friends during these trying times. Time will pass never to return and you do not want to have the “if only”, “why didn’t I” running through your thoughts for the rest of your life. 

Enjoy the moments, DO NOT let homeschooling get in the way.  Like I have said before my daughter-in-law turned Disney into a homeschool class, so use your imagination– baking teaches math, enjoying playing in the yard, collecting what you can find is science.  There are lots of creative ways, non-stressful to teach it doesn’t have to be with a book.  It is teaching they will always remember because you made it fun.  How many drops of water does it take before a penny is covered in water?  Who can blow the biggest bubble?    Watch a movie then discuss it?  Make a card–math and English covered there.
