Encouragement – Stampin with Shirley G

Stampin’ Up! Kiddin’ Around

January 12, 2024 custom

This was a fun card to create. It is also a fun fold Z fold. The Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper made for a fun creating. I also used the Stampin’ Up! Kiddin’ Around stamp set.

My card base is Pool Party card stock. As this is a Z-fold card, I started with a 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ piece of card stock, scoring at 2-1/8″ and 4-1/4″. Fold the card as you would a regular card, then fold into a mountain fold. It will be mountain fold for the first fold and the regular fold is a valley fold. I used Pretty Peacock card stock to create the mats for the Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper. You can find the card cuts at the end of this post. In the package of Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper there are 2 pieces of the Designer Series Paper that can be cut into sections to create a scene. I used two of the sections to create my card.

A castle is die cut from another pattern of Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper, two others are cut from Smoky Slate card stock. The three are adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue then adhered to the third panel where the sentiment is stamped on the Basic White panel in Pretty Peacock ink. A flag is die cut three times using Kiddin’ Around Dies. They are adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, then colored using Poppy Parade and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers.

One of the kids from the Designer Series Paper is fussy cut and popped on the panel in front of the castle. The boy’s hat, some of the books, the flags at the top of each panel, the dragon’s tongue, the blocks on the top shelf of the book case and the apple on the trees are brushed with Wink of Stella.

This is another view of the card. I stamped the girl from Stampin’ Up! Kiddin’ Around stamp set in Memento Black and colored using Balmy Blue, Poppy Parade, Tahitian Tide, Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers and one of the Blends for flesh color. I then die cut the girl and popped her on the stool that has been die cut from a piece of Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper (free during Sale-a-Bration with qualifying order).

A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Kiddin’ Around stamp set is stamped on a piece of Basic White card stock in Pretty Peacock ink. It is matted on a piece of Pretty Peacock card stock and adhered to the card front. Only half of the panel has Multipurpose Liquid Glue applied. If it was applied to the entire piece, it would glue the panel to the card and it could not be opened. Stars are die cut from pieces of Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper and popped around the greeting panel.

This is the back of the card for space for writing a note or just signing your card. Another scene is created on the left panel. The boy and girl are fussy cut from a panel of Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper.

The belly band is a piece of Pool Party card stock with a piece of Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper over it. A boy and girl are fussy cut from a panel of the Designer Series Paper and popped on the front of the belly band. Iridescent Rhinestones are popped in the corners.

A Basic White medium envelope gets a panel of Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Magical Meadow — Blessings

September 9, 2023 admin

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Magical Meadow Dies, Stampin’ Up! Fruitful Blessings stamp set, Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper, and Distress Tile 3D Embossing Folder.

I am entering the Tuesday Morning Sketches Challenge for this card.

I am also entering the NBUS Challenge for this card.

The card base is Basic White card stock with a panel of the same embossed using Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. This embossed piece of card stock is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Three strips of Joy of Christmas Designer Series paper is cut and adhered over the embossed piece using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

The flowers and greenery are die cut from Stampin’ Up! Magical Meadow Dies. They are colored with Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green, Shaded Spruce and Stary Sky Stampin Blends Markers. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Fruitful Blessing stamp set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White card stock, then trimmed to the size needed. The greeting is popped over the designer series paper using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The flowers and greenery are arranged around the greeting using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Sequins from Adhesive Backed Sequin Trio are popped on the card front.

I left the sentiment panel blank to write a note but added a bit of Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper and a few stems of flowers.

A Basic White envelope gets two strips of Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper added to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I used the two strips to match the card front.

Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures

August 28, 2023 admin

After the death of our son, my husband having a TIA and scaring me so, both of us having a respiratory infection and now my husband’s favorite, mine also, is on her way to heaven. She is 100, will be 101 in December. We can’t go see her because of our sickness, so I am happy to be able to finally make a card and blog. It has taken me a few days to get this finished but I was at least giving it a go.

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures Stamp Set and Dies. The greeting is from the same stamp set. The sentiments are from Stampin’ Up! Scenic Wonders Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Wildlife Wonder Stamp Set.

I am entering Creative Creases Challenge for this card. They are always a fun fold and my card is a fun fold.

I started with a 5-1/4″ x 8-3/4″ piece of Pretty Peacock card stock. I scored at 3-1/2″ and 5-1/4″. On the left side come in 1-3/4″ from the edge of the card stock and score down 1-3/4″. The card stock around so the lower right corner of the card stock is now on the top left, come in 1-3/4″ and scorn down 1-3/4″ The score line will be almost all the way to the 3″ x 3″ card. I find it easier to score by adhering the 3″ x 3″ card and the 3″ x 3″ mat before scoring.

This is how the card base looks after it is cut and folded. You can see the directions above.

This is a picture of the placement of the 1-3/4″ x 1-3/4″ squares. And the placement of the 3′ x 3″ card and mat on the right side

I used Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper for my 1-3/4″ squares. I embossed the squared using Timber 3D Embossing Folder. I also embossed the 2-7/8″ square.

I stamped in Crumb Cake ink the greeting and sentiments on Earthen Elegance Designer Series paper along with the wispy branches.

I die cut the Xs and some of the branches in the urns from Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper. The urns are die cut from Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper and Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper. Part of one urn is stamped with Pretty Peacock ink on a piece of the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper.

This is how the card looks when it is finished and standing. Sequins from Adhesive Backed Sequins Trio are popped around the card. Pictures of this card doesn’t show the real beauty of it. I have had that happen several times, when a picture is not beautiful like the card.

I added two panel on the back of the card in case I want to write a longer message than would fit on the 3″ card on the front.

I stamped in Crumb Cake in the wispy branches from Stampin’ Up! Earthen Texture Stamp Set on the square envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Lighting The Ways — Just Way To Say…

July 17, 2023 admin

I’m sharing another beautiful card that I just had to make. I got the idea from another of Elizabeth Price’s cards on Pinterest. I loved the idea she shared about the lantern. I used Stampin’ Up! Lighting The Way stamp set and Dies along with Stampin’ Up! Cheerful Daisies stamp set and Dies.

My card base is Pretty Peacock card stock cut 4-1/4″ x 11″ and scored at 2-3/4″ and 5-1/2″. Fold as you would for a regular card, then fold a mountain fold at the 2-2/4″ score line. This will create the part that become the easel to adhere your card front.

I cut two panel of Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper, one for the card front background and one for the inside. Using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Perched in A Tree stamp set and White Craft Stampin’ Ink, I stamped the dots all over the Masterfully Made DSP panels. One is adhered to the card front, the other to the inside using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a piece of Basic White card stock, a hole is punched using a basic hole punch to punch a hole and a length of gray twine from Basic Twine Essential Pack is tied in a bow. The twine was first tied through the lantern handle. I flipped the greeting up so the entire front of the card can be seen. You can see in the first photo how the tag hangs down the side of the card.

The lantern die is pressed into the Smoky Slate stamp pad to ink the die. The die is then carefully lifted and placed on the Basic White card stock and die cut. The ink comes off creating an aged look. A piece of Vellum is punch with a circle punch, colored using Daffodil Delight and Coastal Cabana Stampin’ Blends Markers. The Vellum is adhered to a Basic White circle punch with the circle punch, then adhered to the back of the lantern creating the illusion of a flame. The lantern is popped on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Daisies are stamped in Berry Burst ink on Basic White card stock, die cut and popped on the card front around the lantern with the greenery that has been stamped in Coastal Cabana ink. The fireflies are stamped in Bubble Bath ink.

A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms stamp set is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a piece of Basic White card stock is die cut using a die from Deckled Rectangle Dies. It is adhered to the inside of the card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White envelope gets a panel of Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

These are the challenges I am entering:

Stampin’ Up! Lighting The Way — Thanks

June 23, 2023 admin

I get the honor of being a guest designer for the Creative Creases Challenge for this challenge. I hope you will have the time to enter this challenge. To enter you can click on the link or the logo.

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Lighting The Way stamp set. This card is a faux step card.

I am entering the NBUS Challenge as I have never used this stamp set before. It is one of the stamp sets I bought just before the 2023 Mini Catalog ended.

Following is the pieces you need to cut to create the card.

Orchid Oasis card stock
- card base — 4-1/4′ x 10″ Score at 1″ and 2″ for the small step, then score 4-1/4″
- center step — 3″ x 8-1/2″ score at 5-1/2″
Basic White card stock
- background mat — 4″ x 4-1/8″
- mat center panel — 2-7/8″ x 5-1/4″
- inside panel — 3-7/8″ x 4″
- fireflies — 4″ x 4″
Stargazing Designer Series Paper
- background — 3-7/8″ x 4″
- center panel — 2-3/4″ x 5-1/8″
Bronze Foil
- lantern — 3″ x 3-3/4″

It is easier to put the mat and designer series paper on the card if you adhere while it is flat. I stamped fireflies in Orchid Oasis ink and Crush Curry ink. I then die cut the fireflies using a die from Lighting The Way Dies. I die cut the lantern from a piece of Bronze Foil using the lantern die from Lighting The Way Dies. I centered the front center piece adhering to the bottom using Tear & Tape, then adhered the back flap using Tear & Tape.

I stamped the sentiment in Orchid Oasis ink on a Basic White card stock panel. I also stamped a firefly and swish in Orchid Oasis ink. I stamped the lighting tail in Crush Curry ink. I adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

This is a side view of the card.

A Basic White envelope get a panel of the Stargazing Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
