Stampin’ Up! Apple Harvest — Greatest Gift

June 14, 2023 admin

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Apple Harvest stamp set and coordinating dies (I believe the dies are retired) I am happy this set carried over in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog as I have not used it before today. It seems I get stuck on a stamp set and I continue using it over and over.

I first prepared a piece of Basic White card stock to appear to be a canvas for a painting. I use Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Gorgeous, Grape, Highland Heather, Pumpkin Pie, and Tahitian Tide inks with a crumbled up piece of aluminum foil to apply the ink. On some spots, I stamped the ink on a piece of scrap paper before applying to the piece of card stock. I have seen this technique on Pinterest and You Tube a few times but never really watched the videos just saw the person squeezing the foil into a ball so thought I would look again and I found one that Terri Gaines did. You can watch her video by clicking her name.

You will notice that some of my picture of my card has bling on the front others do not. I wanted to see which way looked best. I stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink an apple image from Stampin’ Up! Apple Harvest stamp set. I colored using Cherry Cobbler, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the branch and blossoms in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored using Crumb Cake, Bubble Bath, and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. These are popped on the canvas using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The piece I call my canvas is then adhered to a Tahitian Tide card stock piece and popped on the Highland Heather card stock base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A panel of Basic White card stock gets two flowers adhered to the lower corner. I stamped the flowers in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored the flowers with a Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blends Marker. The leaves are die cut from Basic White card stock and colored using a Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Marker. The panel is then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I used an envelope left over from a Paper Pumpkin kit as it matches the card well.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you took the time to linger and look at my other blog post and cards and that 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. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!

Stampin’ Up! Dainty Flowers — with faith…

April 28, 2023 admin

The card I am sharing today is an easy Faux Step Card. I used Stampin’ Up! Dainty Daisies Dies and Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper to create this card.

I am entering Tic, Tac, Toe Challenge. I am choosing the diagonally from left top to right bottom — flowers, yellow, gems.

I am also entering Creative Creases Challenge as my card is a fun fold and their theme is always a fun fold.

My card base is Garden Green card stock. You can see from the diagram above how each piece is cut, scored, and folded. #4 is after the card is put together and the Basic White piece is added for space to sign or write a short note.

This is the panels that are created to add to the step base. Cut two Basic White pieces 2-7/8″ x 4-1/8″, one will be used as a mat for the card front the other will be an art piece on the card back. Cut two Basic White pieces 1-7/8″ x 3-3/8″. These will be mats for the front and back of the short side of the step. Next cut pieces of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper in these sizes. 2-3/4″ x 4″ and 1-3/4″ x 3-1/4″ cut two. You can see from the picture above how they are adhered to each piece of Garden Green using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I die cut daisies from Basic White card stock using a die from Stampin’ Up! Dainty Flowers Dies. The vine is die cut from Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper. The daisy centers are die cut from a piece of Early Espresso card stock. After they are adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals the panels are adhered as you can see below.

This is the way the card looks after the two panel are adhered to the Garden Green step. There are many videos on YouTube for making a faux step card. You can put it in search and find lots of instructional videos.

This is how the back side of the card looks. The greeting and sentiment are from an old retired stamp set, but I thought so appropriate for this card. You can use any greeting and sentiment you choose.

You can see from this side view how each panel adheres to the step base.

A Basic White Medium Envelope gets a piece of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay –Thinking Happy Thoughts…

April 27, 2023 admin

I hope everyone is having a sunny day even if it is raining where you are, as it is here in Georgia today. You can always have a happy day and that will make sunshine in your heart and give you a happy spirit. Give someone your sunny friendly smile today, it maybe the only smile they see the entire day and it will help brighten their rather dreary day. Have a blessed day where ever you maybe and do.

The card I am sharing today is from the Jan – April 2023 Mini Catalog and it carries over to the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalog coming May 2, 2023. I have not shared this stamp set very much, so it is good it is carrying over and I will be able to use it until April 30, 2024.

I am entering Tuesday Morning Sketches for this card. Come join the fun challenges are always fun to do.

I started with a Pool Party card stock card base. I added a panel of By The Bay Designer Series Paper matted to a panel of Night of Navy card stock. I adhered this to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut a strip of By The Bay Designer Series Paper 1-1/2″ x 5″ matting on Night of Navy card stock. I adhered this across the card front.

I cut a piece of By the Bay Designer Series for the art piece matting on Night of Navy card stock. I stamped birds from Stampin’ Up! Lets Set Sail stamp set in the upper right corner using Night of Navy ink. I adhered this piece to the card front positioning it over the banner. To this piece I added birds that were either fussy cut from By The Bay Designer Series Paper or stamped in Night of Navy ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay stamp set. These birds are popped on the bottom of the art panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Seashells are also fussy cut and popped on the card front. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! On The Farm stamp set is stamped in Night of Navy ink in the left corner. Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels are popped around the card front. This finishes the card front, now on to creating the inside panel to write a note or sentiment.

A panel of By The Bay Designer Series Paper is matted on Night of Navy card stock after having seashells and a bird stamp across the bottom of the panel. The shells are stamped in Crumb Cake ink and the bird is stamped in Night of Navy ink. Even with the design on the panel it is light enough to write a message. This finishes the inside of the card, now on to making sure there is no naked envelope.

A Basic White Medium Envelope gets a piece of By The Bay Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Two Tone Flora Meets Hues Of Happiness — Hey There

April 23, 2023 admin

The card I am sharing today is created using Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper and a die from Stampin’ Up! Two Tone Flora stamp set.

I am entering Krafty Chicks Challenge for this card.

I started by die cutting from a panel of Basic White card stock, the large flora die from Stampin’ Up! Two Tone Flora Dies. This die cut is adhered to a panel of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper, then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I fussy cut flowers from a panel of Hues of Happiness Designer Series paper adhering them to the Basic White die cut panel. I stamped a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink, fussy cut and popped on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The inside sentiment panel is left blank for a note or maybe a future sentiment may be added, except for a few flowers at the bottom of the panel. The Mossy Meadow card stock vine is die cut using a die from Stampin’ Up! Dainty Flowers stamp set.

Stampin’ Up! By The Bay — Sending Hugs

April 21, 2023 admin

Sometimes you can let the Designer Series Paper do the creating and that is what I have done today with the card I am sharing with you. I used By The Bay Designer Series Paper, along with an embossing folder from Stripes and Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. I am entering the Global Design Project Challenge for this card.

I cut nine squares from a panel of By The Bay Designer Series Paper. These square are adhered to a Basic White card stock panel and a Distressed Gold Specialty Paper is used to mat the Basic White card stock panel. I embossed a panel of Coastal Cabana cardstock using an embossing folder from Stripes and Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. This panel is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. The panel with the nine squares is adhered to the middle of the embossed panel. A greeting from Stampin’ up! Through This Together stamp set is stamped in Coastal Cabana ink in the center square. Three Gold Adhesive Backed Swirls are popped in the middle square above the greeting.

A panel of By The Bay Designer Series Paper is adhered to the inside of the card base for a sentiment of choice or a short note.

A Basic White Medium Envelope gets a piece of By The Bay Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
