Stampin’ Up! Free As A Bird Around The Corner

Stampin’ Up! Free As A Bird Around The Corner

Welcome and Happy Chilly Monday!  51 Days until the “Big” event.  Think of all the work you have ahead for that big event and then it is over in the blink of an eye and you are exhausted!  We work so hard to make our Christmas celebration fun and beautiful and the day is over much too soon for all the work.  I think we should just take a cruise and enjoy Christmas on a ship someplace!  Wanta make reservations? 😉

The card for today is created let’s just say with Stampin’ Up! products, since there are so many I used today!

My design inspiration comes from CAS(E) This Sketch.  

In starting this card, the first thing I did was to color the art piece that I had cut from Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad DSP. I used Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends in Light Real Red and Light Mango Melody.  For the inside pieces, I then fussy cut them.  Don’t you just love fussy cutting, that why I have special scissors.😉

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock with a mat of Stampin’ Up! Real Red card stock that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder.  A banner created using Stampin’ Up! Garden  Lane Designer Series Paper and a Basic Black mat. This is adhered down the middle of the card front. 

The art piece is a 3-1/8″ Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad DSP and colored with Stampin’ Blends.  The mat is Basic Black card stock and has the greeting from Stampin’ Up! Around The Corner stamped in the lower-left corner in Stampin’ Up! Gold Delicata Metallic Ink.  Three Stampin’ Up! Gold Glitter Enamel Dots are adhered in the right corner.  A bow made from Stampin’ Up! Gold Shimmer Ribbon (from the Christmastime Is Here Suite) is popped on the corner of the art piece using a Stampin’ Up! Mini Glue Dot.

The sentiment is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and is decorated using flowers and a bird fussy cut from the Bird Ballad DPS.  As I stated earlier, the flowers were colored using Stampin’ Blends Markers.

The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the colored Bird Ballad DSP also to finish out my project.

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! Feels Like Frost with A Free Bird

Welcome to my post.  Hope you have  a Friday that is filled with whatever your heart desires and that the weekend holds fantastic adventures ahead.  56 days until Christmas are  you working on Christmas cards.  You only have about 46 days as you need to mail in time to reach the person before Christmas.  So get busy! Panic here!

The card I am sharing today is inspired by the design sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Seaside Spray card stock with a mat of the same color that is embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Scripty 3D Embossing Folder.

The silver leaf panel is from Stampin’ Up! Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper and is matted on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy.  The art piece has two mats cut from Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock and Seaside Spray card stock using Stampin’ Up! Layering Dies.  The Happy Birthday on the art piece is from the Stampin’ Up! Piece of Cake Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy ink.

The birds from the Stampin’ Up! Free As A Bird Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends Markers in Light Seaside Spray, Light Pineapple Punch, Light Crumb Cake, Light Old Olive, and Light Lovely Lipstick.  It is then popped onto the art circle using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals and Mini Glue Dots.

 

The sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! Everything is Rosy Product Medly and is stamped in Night of Navy ink.  The birds are stamped as colored as the birds on the card front.

My Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap gets a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Feels Like Frost  DSP.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Beauty

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Beauty

Happy Day, I am happy you stopped by today.  The card I created is a CAS(E)  of one that a team member, Akiko Sudano created.  You can find hers here.    She has much better instructions to create than I do, so I will make only a few comments about my card.

My card inspiration for today is from The Paper Players.  

ca

Stampin’ Up! Merry Merlot card stock was used as the card base with a background panel from the Stampin’ Up! Toile Tiding Designer Series Paper.  A banner from Stampin’ Up! Garden Lane Designer Series Paper is adhered across the background panel.  The trees from the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set is used to stamp two sets of trees on the Stampin’ Up! Very Vanilla card stock square that has been matted with a square from the Merry Merlot card stock.

The deer from Natur’s Beauty Stamp Set is stamped on a small panel of Very Vanilla card stock using Stampin’ Up! Early Espresso ink.  I used a Stampin’ Up! Light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Marker to then color the deer. The deer is popped on the art square using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals. The flourish on the left is actually the feather from the Stampin’ Up! Detailed Peacock Dies.  A Stampin’ Up! Designer Element that has been colored using a Stampin’ Up! Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Marker is popped in the center of the flourish.  Another of the elements is popped in the right corner. 

The sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp set is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Merry Merlot ink on a Very Vanilla card stock panel.  The trees are stamped in Garden Green ink in two corners.  The panel is then adhered to the card base.

Trees from Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set are stamped on the Stampin’ Up! Very Vanilla envelope flap to finish the project.

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! Pressed Petals

Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals

Happy Monday everyone.  Hope your day is fantastic with no glitches along the way!

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals Designer Series Paper.  It took a bit of fussy cutting to cut all the little flowers to make the wreath but I like the way it turned out.

My challenge inspiration for today is Crazy 4 Challenges — the theme is wreaths.

 

Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow card stock is the card base with a panel of the Mossy Meadow card stock embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder.  This panel is cut the same size as the card front to make embossing easier. It is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A  panel of the Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals DSP is adhered across the entire width of the card.  A circle was cut for the foundation of the wreath and a greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow ink on the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White circle cropped from one of the Stampin’ Up! Layering Circle Dies.

The flowers were fussy cut from a panel of the Pressed Petals DSP and adhered and popped around the circle to form the wreath using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Up! Glue Dots and Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Several rhinestones and pearls from Stampin Up! Rhinestone Basic Jewels and Pearl Basic Jewels were randomly placed around the card front.

I am proud of my bow!  I watched Mary Deatherage very close when she was tying a bow on her FB video on Saturday evening and so I gave it a try and it turned out maybe not as great as hers, but I am pleased I could tie it.  I used linen thread from Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack (I used the Mossy Meadow linen thread) and regular Stampin’ Up! Linen Thread .

The sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Forever Lovely Stamp Set is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  A strip of the flowers that coordinate with the flowers that created the wreath are adhered down the side of the panel.

The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the Pressed Petals DSP to complete the project.

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.
