Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts with Parisian Blossoms

Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts with Parisian Blossoms

Good morning all on this chilly Friday in Georgia!  What are your plans for the weekend?  Fun and relaxation? Reading a good book and enjoying an extra cup of Earl Grey tea–or coffee?  I once was a big coffee drinker–but a health challenge stopped that enjoyment.  Funny I can drink tea but not coffee.  Well, that’s enough on the weather forecast for today and tea or coffee.

The card today features the Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper.  Quite a combination, would you not say?

I believe I have two challenges today that I draw inspiration from — The Sisterhood of Crafters — with a theme of  Patterned Paper

And…

Tuesday Morning Sketches with this lovely sketch.

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Pool Party card stock base, add a layer of the same embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder.  Add a layer of the Stampin’ Up! Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper with the Pool Party portion cropped using a dies from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Be Mine Dies.

Fussy cut a cluster of blossoms from the Parisian Blossoms DSP and pop on the Pool Party portion of the card front.  Add a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Baker’s Twine bow popped on with a Stampin’ Up! Glue Dot.  Add three Stampin’ Up! Adhesive Backed Sequins and a greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts Stamp Set and your card front is finished.

The sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on the Whisper White card stock panel.  A cluster of blossoms is adhered at the bottom of the panel.

Give the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap a panel of the Parisian Blossoms DSP and your project is finished.

hank 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

Hello everyone, it looks like it will be another soggy day in Georgia!  Don’t you just love me giving the weather forecast?

The card today is created using the Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper, a product of the 2nd release of Sale-A-Bration, Stampin’ Up! Well Said Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Forever Lovely Stamp Set.  This card is similar to one I have made recently, someone wanted to know what it would look like if it had a black card base and the colors I have used.  Now we know!

My inspiration for today comes from the Joy of Sets Challenge.  I chose watercolor, embossing, and floral.

Start with a Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock base, add a panel of the same card stock embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Stone 3D Embossing Folder matted on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock.   Adhere to the base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

One focal panel is cut from Stampin’ Up! 6″ x 6″ 2018-2020 Incolor Designer Series Paper and the other is cut from Stampin’ Up! Old Olive card stock that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Scripty 3D Embossing Folder.  A Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Craft Inkpad is lightly rubbed over the embossing so the scripty embossing will show up more. They are both matted on a Whisper White mat.  The Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Die is used to crop the label panel for the greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Well Said Stamp Set and for the flower to be popped onto.  Stampin’ Up! Rhinestone Basic Jewels are colored using a Stampin’ Up! Dark Lovely Lipstick Stampin’ Blends Marker then popped on the label.

The blossom is watercolored using Stampin’ Up! Lovely Lipstick and Old Olive Classic Stamp Pads and an Aqua Painter. Drag your stamp pads over a piece of aluminum foil and add water from your Aqua Painter.  I have found this the easiest method when watercoloring.  I have also used a mirror to do the same.  I even colored a length of the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Polka Tulle Ribbon, you can see it behind the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Baker’s Twine wrapped around the card.  A triple loop bow is made and popped on the blossom using a Stampin’ Up! Glue Dot.

The sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Forever Lovely Stamp Set is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Lovely Lipstick ink on a Whisper White panel.  Blossoms from the Stampin’ Up! Flowering  Foils Designer Series Paper are watercolored along with the blossom on the card front. 

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!

Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed

Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed

Happy rainy Thursday!  The rain is so heavy, I believe I even saw a few cats and dogs falling from the sky!🙂  A good day to just stay in and make cards!

My pretty feminine card today is created using Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed Designer Series Paper (DSP),  Forever Blossoms Stamp Set, and Beautiful Moments Stamp Set. This DSP is so pretty it alone can make a beautiful card without any additions, I snipped a few blossoms to add around my greeting label.

Challenges for the day are  Watercooler Wednesday –  Heidi’s Challenge: Anything Goes With a Feminine Twist

And…

Through The Craft Room Door — Anything Goes

And…

Just Us Girls — Word Week — Bow

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock with a Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather card stock mat for the Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed DSP focal panel.

A panel of the Best Dressed DSP is matted on Highland Heather and popped across the front of the main focal panel.  Blossoms are fussy cut from the DSP and popped over the Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Dies.  The greeting on the label is from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Moments Stamp Set and is stamped in Highland Heather ink. A single rhinestone from Stampin’ Up! Nobel Rhinestones is placed by the greeting. The hearts in the corner of the label are cropped from a die in the Stampin’ Up! Stiched Be Mine Dies.

The bow is created using Stampin’ Up! Whisper White  Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon.  It is popped on the corner of the label using Stampin’ Up! Glue Dots.

The sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Stamp Set and is stamped in Highland Heather ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  Blossoms, from the Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed DSP,  are adhered across the top and down the side.

In finishing, the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the Best Dressed Designer Series Paper.

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!
