Stampin’ Up! Nested Friends — Thinking of You

Stampin’ Up! Nested Friends — Thinking of You

The card I am sharing today is a combination of Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight stamp set and Dies and Stampin’ Up! Nested Friends stamp set and Dies.  I also used Timber 3D Embossing Folder.

 

My card base is Pecan Pie card stock with a panel of the same card stock embossed using Timber 3D Embossing Folder.  The embossed panel will be adhered to the card base after the card front is finished.

I die cut four vines from Garden Green and Granny Apple Green card stock using a die from Dainty Delight Dies. I also die cut daisies from Balmy Blue and a scrap I had that had the pink color in a little spot.  As the scrap was in my scrap bin, I do not know the name of the DSP, but you can die cut daisies from any color you choose, if you choose to create this card. The bird nest is from Stampin’ Up! Nested Friends stamp set and is stamped in Pecan Pie ink.  The bird is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored using a Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers.  The three eggs are die cut using a die from Dainty Delight Dies and is colored using a Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends Marker.  Adhesive Backed  Sparkle Gems are popped in the center of the daisies and around the card front.

A panel of Basic White card stock gets flowers from Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight stamp set stamped on the panel and colored using Balmy Blue and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Markers.  The panel is then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White envelope get the same flowers as the inside panel stamped on the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Paper Pumpkin

Stampin’ Up! Paper Pumpkin

WHAT IS PAPER PUMPKIN?

What is Paper Pumpkin? Paper Pumpkin is our monthly One-Stop Box™ that offers a unique variety of paper projects for subscribers of any skill level to enjoy! These thoughtfully-themed and all-inclusive craft kits encourages us  as Stampin’ Up! customers to explore their creativity, try new techniques, and discover our potential in paper crafting.

Paper Pumpkin introduces us to an impressive collection of Stampin’ Up! products, from their one-of-a-kind ink pads to their eye-catching embellishments. Plus, the carefully-chosen components of each Paper Pumpkin kit highlight the unbeatable versatility and coordination of the products provide! This is an easy and exciting way to stock up on supplies—and create small-batch projects for occasions of any kind— it also inspires us to continue crafting after the kit is complete. Paper Pumpkin is a great way to collect the ink spots and stamp sets that you can use over and over again.  I have a great collection of the ink spots and use them often.

This is a picture of the diagram that comes with a Paper Pumpkin kit.  You can see how much I have changed the cards I have made by checking this picture.  I still have more cards to make from this kit, but don’t know when I will get back to it.  This is the April Paper Pumpkin.  You can see how fast I put the kits together.  I usually make them alternative cards using the elements in the kits to create my own designs.

Here are the cards I made.  If you want to know anything about any of the cards, send me a private message and I will get back to you.  I did an inside sentiment for some of the cards, some I left blank to write a note or stamp a future sentiment.

 

I used the envelopes that come with the kit and did no other decorating.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch — Thinking of You!

Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch — Thinking of You!

I am sharing another Pansy Patch card with you today.  I love this stamp set and so happy it carried over to the new catalog that went live June 1, 2023.  I made another Pansy Patch card and you can see the details here with all the diagrams and instructions for putting the pansies together.

I am entering the Stampin’ Up! Challenge.  Their theme is flowers.

I am also entering Use Your Stuff Challenge.

My card base is Fresh Freesia card stock. I embossed a panel of Blackberry Bliss card stock using the Splash 3D Embossing Folder from Stripes and Splashes 3D Embossing Folders.  I adhered the panel to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I die cut a piece of Basic White card stock using a die from Two-Tone Flora Dies.  This piece is adhered over the embossed panel.  I applied Multipurpose Liquid Glue sparingly on the delicate piece so as not to have glue spreading on the embossed piece as it was adhered.

This is a side view of the card showing how the card base is folded to create the easel. 

I started with a Fresh Freesia  card stock base cut 4-1/4″ x 11″. I then scored the piece at 2-1/8″ and 5-1/2″.  I folded and creased well.  The mountain fold of the 2-1/8″ piece becomes the piece you attach the card front to using adhesive of your choice. 

My card is an easel fold fun fold card.  I like them because they are easy to create and for displaying a card on your shelf or table.

Again, you can see the instructions for die cutting and assembling the pansies.

I matted a piece of Basic White card stock on a Blackberry Bliss card stock mat and adhered to the inside of the card.  This will give ample space to write a message.  A pansy is adhered at the bottom of the panel to become the stop for the easel.

A Basic White envelope gets a pansy stamped on the envelope flap.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Fresh As A Daisy — Thinking of You Today!

Stampin’ Up! Fresh As A Daisy — Thinking of You Today!

The card I am sharing today is created using Fresh As A Day Designer Series Paper.  The paper does all the work of creating a beautiful card.

I am entering Pammie’s InkyPinkies Challenge.

I used Pretty Peacock card stock as the card base and the mats for the Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series paper. Usually, when I make a card using the Triple Time Technique, I cut three pieces of card stock, adhere the three pieces together using a bit of removal tape to hold the piece together while stamping a design on them. The pieces are then matted and then adhered together creating the Triple Time Technique.  I did not know if this would work, but I wanted to give it a try, so I cut the largest piece, cut the second piece from it and then the third piece from the second.  It worked like a dream.


Below is the size of each panel you will need to create this card.  I the first panel of Designer Series Paper 4″ x 5-1/4″, out of this piece I cut the second piece 3″ x 4-1/4″ making sure borders were equal.  Out of the second piece I cut the 2″ x 3″ piece, again making sure the borders were equal.

Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper

  • 2″ x 3-1/4″
  • 3″ x 4-1/4″
  • 4″ x 5-1/4″

Pretty Peacock card stock for card base and mats

  • card base — 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″mats 
  • mat — 2-1/4″ x 3-1/2″
  • mat — 3-1/4″ x 4-1/2″

I cut the two mats and adhered the Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper to the mats and card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I added a greeting from Stampin’ Up! By My Side stamp set, stamping it in Versa Mark on a scrap of Pretty Peacock card stock, sprinkling White Embossing Powder over it and heat embossing using a heat tool.  I added three Flat  Adhesive Backed Pearls.

To a panel of Basic White card stock I added fussy cut flowers across the bottom.  The panel is then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

 A Basic White Medium Envelope  get a panel of Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
