Stampin’ Up! Sailing Home with Friends Are Like Seashells

Sunday everyone, are you watching the Indy 500, which seems to be a Memorial Day tradition. I have a race fan so of course, he’s watching waiting for the NASCAR one after this one is over.

The card I am sharing today is a combination of Stampin’ Up! Sailing Home and Friends Are Like Seashells Stamp Sets along with the Smooth Sailing Dies and the Seabed Embossing Folder.

My inspiration for today’s card is the Card Concept Challenge. I love the overall theme, but did not make it red, white, and blue.

The card base is Basic White card stock with a panel of the Whale of A Time DSP embossed using the Seabed Embossing Folder, then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A panel of Basic White card stock is embossed using the Seabed Embossing Folder and adhered over the Whale Of A Time DSP panel.

The ship’s wheel and a portion of the seagrass are cropped from the same panel of DSP as the background panel. The seashells and starfish are stamped in Just Jade ink on Pearlescent Specialty Paper, fussy cut, and popped over the Seabed embossed panel. The lighthouse and sailboat are from the Sailing Home Stamp Set and are stamped in Just Jade ink, cropped, and popped on the Basic White panel. The ship’s wheel gets a Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewel popped in the middle of the wheel. The ship’s wheel is popped against the lighthouse.

The inside panel of Basic White card stock has three sailboats from the Sailing Home Stamp Set stamped in Just Jade ink, then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

The medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of Whale Of A Time DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms with Grace’s Garden

Happy sunny Saturday or I hope it is sunny where you are!

The card I am sharing today is another made using Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms. I have also used the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder and the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.

Inspiration for my challenge today is from Addicted to Stamps and More — theme this week is Make Your Mark.

And Little Red Wagon Challenge — their theme is flowers

I started with a Basic White card stock base with a panel of the same embossed using the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder, then adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the card base.

A panel of the Hand Penned DSP is cropped using an Ornate Frames Die and adhered over the embossed panel. Blossoms from the Forever Blossom Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a Basic White card stock panel then cropped using a Stitched So Sweetly Die. The blossoms are colored using Melon Mambo ink and alcohol. I mixed the two together and then used extra alcohol to get the right color of pink. I used a Stampin’ Blends Color Blender marker that no longer worked to add the ink to the blossoms. The leaves are colored using a Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Marker.

The blossoms are also stamped on the top of the inside panel leaving ample space for a note of birthday wishes, thinking of you, sympathy, or any type of note.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Hand Penned DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern

Can we call this Wacky Wednesday? That is usually the way it goes. Hope your day is going fantastic.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Stamp Set and the new 2021-2023 In colors Classic Stamp Pads, along with the Ornate Frames Dies, the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder, and a butterfly from the Brilliant Wings Dies.

Sunday Stamps has some great colors for their challenge this week, so I have chosen to participate as their colors match the new In colors so well.

I started with a card base of Soft Succulent card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder. The embossed panel is adhered to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A Basic White card stock panel is cropped using a die from the Ornate Frame Dies. This panel is also adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using the Forever Fern Stamp Set and the new In Colors the images are stamped in Polished Pink, Evening Evergreen, Pale Papaya and an old basic Calypso Coral ink. Once all are stamped they are cropped using the Forever Flourishing Dies. I then arranged them on the Basic White card stock panel, took a picture so I would know how to adhere them on the panel and then adhered. I cropped a butterfly from Basic White card stock using a butterfly die from the Brilliant Wing Dies.

Using the dot stamp from the Forever Fern Stamp Set, dots are stamped in Evening Evergreen around the floral arrangement. A greeting is stamped in Soft Succulent ink on the Basic White panel in the upper corner. A Champagne Basic Jewel is popped beside the greeting.

Two images from the Forever Fern Stamp Set is stamped in Pale Papaya and Evening Evergreen ink on a Basic White panel.

A medium Basic White envelope gets art using Forever Fern stamped to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden

Happy Monday. Have a great week.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set, the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, and Stampin’ Blends Markers. I was looking on Pinterest for a Fun Fold card and I found this one created by Melissa’s Crafting Treehouse.

I chose the daisies and the bees from the Card Concept Challenge as my theme for my card today.

The card base is So Saffron card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Tasteful Texture Embossing Folder. The embossed panel is adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Cut the following.

Mossy Meadow card stock–Fun Fold — 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 3″, 5-1/2″, 8″ and 9-1/2″ Adhere a length of ribbon colored using a So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Marker.

Stamp the flowers from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set in Smoky Slate ink. Color the flowers in So Saffron, Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather, and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers.

The sentiment on the first panel with a sentiment comes from the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set. It was too long for the panel so I stamped it in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and cut the line apart and placed it on the panel in a zig-zag design, adding three bees.

A panel of Dandy Garden DSP is adhered to the first panel above. A bee and dragonfly are fussy cut and popped on the panel. The Very Vanilla card stock panel with the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. The flowers are stamped from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set also and colored using the same Stampin’ Blends Markers.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Dandy Garden DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Because I Care

Happy Sunday, I hope you are having a blessed day. We are blessed to get to attend a most important graduation — our great daughter’s pre-school graduation. You know how important those are! I didn’t get to share a card with you before I attended that all-important graduation. I started before we left to try to get this finished, but one thing after another prevented it. I am finally getting to share.

This is a vintage stamp set so if you desire to re-create this card, you can use the Hydrangea Haven Stamp Set. You can see the Because I Care Stamp Set below in the product used to create this card.

My design inspiration is from the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.

My card base is Basic White card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Subtle Embossing Folder. The embossed panel is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A strip of Basic White card stock is cut and using paper snips flagged at one end. It is then matted on a Highland Heather card stock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Thinking of you is stamped in Highland Heather ink and the strip is embossed using the Subtle Embossing Folder and adhered to the card front.

An image from the Because I Care Stamp Set is stamped in Highland Heather ink on a panel of Basic White card stock. It is stamped in two parts, first the hydrangea in Highland Heather ink and the leaves in Soft Succulent ink. I fussy cut the hydrangea and popped on the flagged strip. Three 2021-2023 In Color Jewels are randomly placed around the flagged strip.

A hydrangea from the Hydrangea Hill DSP is fussy cut and adhered to the corner of a Basic White card stock panel. it is then adhered inside the card.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Hydrangea Hill DSP applied to the envelope flap.
