Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals

Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals

This is a pretty card.  I love this DSP.  Stampin’ Up! certainly has beautiful Designer Series Paper for the 2019-2020 year.  I whined because some of my favorite paper was retired, but this is for sure a great replacement.  The flowers look so real.  I used the Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals DSP to make this card and used Stampin’ Up! Well Said Stamp Set for the greeting on the card front.  The inside sentiment is from one of my favorite stamp sets which I did not like and did not order, then it was gifted to me and when I used it, I was regretful that I wasted time not having Stampin’ Up!’s Beautiful Promenade Stamp Set.  I have since used it so much.  I’ve probably said all this before about this stamp set.

My challenge for the day is FabFri165

The base is from the new Stampin’ Up! In-Color card stock Rococo Rose.  The background panel is from Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals DSP as is the art piece.  

The art piece and the mat for it have been cut using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Nested Label Dies.  

The trim at the bottom of the art piece is Stampin’ Up! Woven Threads Trim.

The word LOVE come from the Stampin’ Up! Well Said Stamp Set and is stamped in Merry Merlot ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock.  I then used my snips to trim each end to match the Stitched Nested Label Die.

The sentiment is from Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Promenade Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Merry Merlot ink on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock.  Flowers have been fussy cut from the Pressed Petals DSP and adhered in the left corner with Liquid Glue.

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the floral theme of the card.  I   gave the envelope flap a panel from the Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petal DSP.   Don’t you just love this DSP, it is so pretty! 

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you like my card and my wish is that your day be blessed.

Stampin’ Up! New Wonders

Stampin’ Up! New Wonders

There is nothing like getting your card for a certain challenge made at midnight and start to write the blog only to realize you have made the card entirely different from what the challenge is.  So what do you do?  You put it all away and go to bed, hoping for a better morning.  Well, here I am again with a totally different card and praying it works this time.

I am playing along again today at another challenge at Try Stampin’ on Tuesday.

I used the Stampin’ Up! New Wonders stamp set to create this cute little card.  I have been wanting to use this set and just kept waiting to do it.  It is a cute stamp set and is actually a Hostess Set, meaning you can earn it by having a $150 party or purchasing $150 personally.  Being a demonstrator means I had the opportunity to order it during pre-order (one of the perks of being a demonstrator) after OnStage in November 2018.  Has it really been that long since OnStage?  We have a new one coming in April and if you become a demonstrator, you have the privilege of going if you so choose.  That’s enough, now on to the card for the day.  Here are the basics of the card:

  • The base is Stampin’ Up! Coastal Cabana card stock.
  • Two panels from the Stampin’ Up! Follow Your Art Designer Series Paper, one is the mat and the other is the background panel.
  • A 2″ strip is cut fro the Poppy Parade, and adhered with Liquid Multipurpose Glue to the center portion of the background panel.  Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Twine is wrapped around this panel three times before it is adhered.  A bow is also made and popped on using Glue Dots.
  • Using a die from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Framelits Dies a border piece is cut for each side of the Poppy Parade panel.
  • Several Stampin’ Up! Pearl Basic Jewels are colored with the Stampin’ Up! Dark Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends and scattered about on the card front.
  • One of the images from the Stampin’ Up! New Wonders Hostess Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a 3″ square of  Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Paper.  After stamping, I cut it out using Stampin’ Up Layering Circle Dies.  Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends are used to color the image.  The colors used were Light Poppy Parade, Light Bermuda Bay, Light Daffodil Delight, Light Petal Pink, Light Crumb Cake, Light Balmy Blue, and Light Smoky Slate.

That’s it for the card front.  There is no inside sentiment only three hearts stamped in Stampin’ Up! Poppy Parade Ink using the small heart stamp from Stampin’ Up! Meant to Be stamp set.

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the background panel on the card front.  I  stamped the images from the Stampin’ Up! New Wonders stamp set on the front of the envelope and gave the envelope flap a panel from the Stampin’ Up! Follow Your Art DSP.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and my wish is that your day be blessed.

Stampin’ Up! Come Sail Away

Stampin’ Up! Come Sail Away

My card today is created using the Stampin’ Up Come Sail Away Memories and More card pack.  This is a simple card to make #simplestamping.  Really there is no stamping to it.  We learned it all in kindergarten, cut and paste!

The challenge I am playing along with today is Sketch Saturday

The card is put together using either Liquid Glue, Glue Dots or Stampin’ Up! Stampin Dimensionals.  The greeting panel is popped on using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The inside sentiment is created using the stickers in the  Come Sail Away Memories and More card pack.

The card from the card pack is adhered using Liquid Glue and the stickers one in the middle of the compass and the other just a bit below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

To finish my card I decorated a  Very Vanilla Envelope so it will coordinate with the background panel on the card front.  I popped the sticker images from the Stampin’ Up! Come Sail Away Memories and More card set on the front of the envelope.  

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and my wish is that your day be blessed.

Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Lane

Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Lane

My card today is created using the new Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper and the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set (available June 4)

Here are the challenges I think my card will fit today.  Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

And…   Craftyhazelnut’s Patterned Paper Challenge.  

And…  Watercooler Wednesday  Anything Goes Challenge

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow card stock.  Then there is a Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock mat for the Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper (available June 4).  These are adhered together using Liquid Multipurpose Glue. What do you think of the Mossy Meadow strip that is vertical down the panel of Magnolia Lane DSP?  It looks like a ribbon doesn’t it, but it is the strip that I cut off the Magnolia Lane DSP when I was cutting it for the correct size.  It even looks as if it has a Whisper White mat but that is just the strip on each side of the Mossy Meadow strip.  This is the reverse side of the Magnolia Lane panel. The greeting is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow ink on a Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock label that has been punched using the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Label Punch (from the Mosiac Mood Suite available June 4).  It is matted on a Mossy Meadow card stock mat that is cut with the same punch.  Two small Magnolias have been fussy cut and popped on the label and in the lower right corner along with a Stampin’ Up! Pearl Basic Jewel.  Two other pearls are popped in the upper right corner.

The envelope flap has been covered to coordinate with the Magnolia Lane panel on the card front.

Here is the first card I made for this challenge, but after making it I did not like it so I made the card you see above.  Quite a contrast right?

 

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope your day is blessed.

Little Twinkle

Little Twinkle

!, My card today is created by using a soon to be a retired stamp set, Little Twinkle.  It was an easy card to make and would be great for a beginning stamper.

My sketch is from the Try Stamping on Tuesday.

Night of Navy card stock is used for the card base.  A panel of Whisper White card stock is used for the mat for the Twinkle, Twinkle DSP used for the focal panel.  Three circles are cut using the Layering Circle Dies, one a bit larger than the next to make a border for the first circle that is cut from a panel of the Twinkle, Twinkle DSP.  The Petal Pink circle has the greeting stamped in Night of Navy ink. A length of Whisper White ribbon is wrapped around the Night of Navy star panel before the circles are popped over it using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Several silver stars are scattered around the card front and they may not show up too well.

The inside sentiment is from the Ribbons of Courage stamp set (retiring June 3) and I wish it wasn’t.

My envelope flap got some of the Twinkle, Twinkle DSP that was used for the focal panel.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Hope you like the card.  Have a blessed day!
