Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Dreams Sneak Peek

Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Dreams Sneak Peek

Happy Friday everyone! I know you are looking forward to the weekend unless you are working.  Have a great weekend working or not!

I  used the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden stamp set (this is a sneak peek, it will be available January 3, 2021, in the new Stampin’ Up! 2020-2021 Mini Catalog) and the Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy stamp set which is soon-to-be-available (but only for a LIMITED time!) Can you believe 2021 is just around the corner?  Here hoping for a much better 2021 than 2020 has been.

My inspiration is from Catch the Bug Blog — Stella Says Sketch 817 

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Misty Moonlight card stock base.  No embossing for today’s card or die cuts, my Big Shot went on to it’s great rewards and the new one has not arrived, so I am back to the days before embossing was popular.

Cut panels of Stampin’ Up! Bumblebee card stock for your mats. Cut a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Dandy Gardens Designer Series Paper (DSP) and mat to one of the Bumblebee mats then adhere to the Misty Moonlight card base.  Cut a different pattern of the DSP and place it over the first panel.  Cut a 1/4″ strip of another and adhere across the top of the Bumblebee panel.

On a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock stamp in Tuxedo Memento Black ink the flower image from the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden stamp set.  Color the flowers using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends markers in Mango Melody and Mossy Meadow.  Add rhinestones from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

Stamp the greeting from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow ink on the lower right corner of the card base.

A sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy stamp set is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  Flowers from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set are stamped in Mossy Meadow also.

A Stampin’ Up! Medium Size Envelope has a panel of the Dandy Garden DS adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

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! No Matter The Weather

Stampin’ Up! No Matter The Weather

Good Morning All!  I hope your day turns out fantastic and you have a wonderful weekend.  I can’t believe it is just around the corner.  Easter will be here soon.  Sale-A-Bration will be ending in 12 days, so if there are still goodies you would like, you only have 12 days to get your shopping done.  Sounds like Christmas, but with Sale-A-Bration, it can seem like Christmas.

My card today is an alternative one from the Stampin’ Up!  March Paper Pumpkin.  If you haven’t seen the kit yet, you are in for a treat.

The challenge that inspired me to make this card is the sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches

 

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Terracotta Tile card stock base and a background panel of the same that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder. The embossed panel is then cropped using a Stampin’ Up! Rectangle Stitched Die.

A panel of the Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch DSP is adhered in the cropped portion of the panel.  A length of ribbon is wrapped around the embossed panel and then adhered to the card base.  All the images are added to the window of the card.  It does look like you are looking out a window at the rain.  Some of the images are stamped and some are from the Paper Pumpkin kit.  A leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Tropical Oasis Trinkets is popped on the card front.

The sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  The sides of the panel gets an umbrella added from the Pleased As Punch DSP.

A Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch DSP added to the panel.  All the card cuts for this card can be found at the end of the 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! Flowering Foils

Stampin’ Up! Flowering Foils

Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone! How is everyone doing in this crazy world we are living in for now?  Are you Irish, how are you celebrating?  I think celebrations will be limited with all the closings.

The card for today is created using Stampin’ Up! Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper.  As you can see from the pictures this is beautiful paper.

One of the challenges entered today is As You See It Challenge — My Favorite Type of Card to Send.  I like sending any card that gives encouragement to the recipient may it be a Thinking of You, Birthday, Get Well and other.  I always feel the recipient feels a bit encouraged when they receive a card.  They know someone is thinking of them.

Another challenge is Stamping Sensations — Floral

 

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! Subtle Embossing Folder.

The blossoms from the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper are fussy cut and then watercolored using Stampin’ Up! Melon Mambo Classic Ink, Pear Pizzazz Classic Ink, Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends Markers in Light & Dark Balmy Blue.  It is amazing the different tints you can make from one color when you add water.  For the buds, Melon Mambo was used full strength, to get the pink of the blossoms water was added to the Melon Mambo ink to obtain the color I wanted.  The same is true of the Pear Pizzazz Classic Ink.

The greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a small scrap of Melon Mambo card stock at adhered to the bottom of the Stampin’ Up! Coastal Weave Embossed panel.  Three Stampin’ Up! Noble Peacock Rhinestone are scattered around the card front.

The sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Heart to Heart Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  The side of the panel gets a partial strip of the blossoms from the Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper.

Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the 2019-2021 Incolor 6″ x 6″ DSP added to the panel.  All the card cuts for this card can be found at the end of the 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!

Here is an Irish Blessing for you today!  With the world in turmoil we all need a special blessing Irish or not.


Stampin’ Up! Born To Shine

Stampin’ Up! Born To Shine

Good morning stampers and non-stamper, blog lovers and all.  We’re headed toward the weekend, just a day away, can you believe–seems it was just here.  Why is time flying so fast?

The card for today features the Stampin’ Up! Born To Shine Stamp Set for the artwork and Stampin’ Up! Rustic Retreat for the sentiment.

The inspiration for the design comes from the Stella Says Sketch SSS 805

And…

Addicted To Stamps — Photo Inspiration.  The ballerinas are like tulips swaying in the breeze.

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock base. Add a layer of Stampin’ Up! See A Silouhette Designer Series Paper for the background. To the left side crop a small panel of Whisper White card stock with a die from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Be Mine Dies, punch a strip of the See A Silhouette DSP using the Braided Border Punch.  Adhere this piece to the opposite side of the Whisper White panel that was cropped.  Adhere the Whisper White panel to the background panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue as you did the other pieces adhered.

Using Tuxedo Memento Black ink stamp the ballerinas from the Stampin’ Up! Born To Shine Stamp Set on a panel of Whisper White.  To get both of the end ballerinas pointing to the one in the middle, reverse (I guess that what it is called, I do anyway) stamping is used.  Stamp the spray of stars also.  Color the ballerinas using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends Markers in  Light & Dark Rococo Rose, Call Me Glover, Balmy Blue, Calypso Coral, Mango Melody, and Crumb Cake. Cut out sections of the Whisper White panel for the background to show through.  

Pop the art piece onto the background panel using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.  The greeting is also from the Born To Shine Stamp Set and is stamped on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and fussy cut to the shape of the greeting.  It is then popped on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Scatter Stampin’ Up! Basic Rhinestone Jewels around the card front.

A panel of See A Silhouette DSP is adhered inside to the card base and an art piece and sentiment are adhered over the panel.  The sentiment panel is cropped using a die from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Dies. The sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Rustic Retreat Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink.

A Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the See A Silhouette DSP added to the 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!

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Moments

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Moments

Happy, sunny Saturday everyone.  The sun is finally shining with no soggy day in sight! YaY!

The card I am featuring today is one of my favorite stamp sets of the Jan.-June 2020 Mini Catalog. It is the Beautiful Moments stamp set.  I’ve probably said it before that it is one of my favorites, but you can hear it again.

The design inspiration for today comes from the Fusion Card Challenge — Decor.  I am doing the sketch challenge.

And…

CraftyHazelnut’s Patterned Paper Challenge

Start with a card base of Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock.

Add Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed 6′ x 6″ Designer Series Paper from two different designs.  I believe it is the same piece of DSP, just the reverse side.  Mat this on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Blackberry Bliss card stock, wrap a length of Stampin’ Up! Scalloped Lace Trim around the panel and tie in a bow and adhere to the Petal Pink card base.

Crop a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Rectangle Dies.  Stamp the lady from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Moments Stamp Set in Stampin’ Up! Smoky Slate ink onto the panel.  Color the artwork using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends Markers in Light Old Olive, Light Granny Apple Green, Light Flirty Flamingo, Light Highland Heather, and Light Petal Pink.  Create the splash of blue using a Stampin’ Up! Balmy Blue Watercolor Pencil and an Aqua Painter.  Add three sequins from the Stampin’ Up! Adhesive Backed Sequins.  Stamp the greeting in Stampin’ Up! Old Olive ink on a Whisper White scrap and fussy cut, pop on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Your card front is finished.

Stamp the sentiment in Old Olive ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock matted on a panel of Blackberry Bliss card stock.  Add a panel of the Best Dressed DSP to the lower half of your sentiment panel.  Adhere to the card base.

A panel of Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper is given to the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap and your project for the day is complete.

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!
