Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Wishes!

Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Wishes!

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Wishes, Wildflower Designs, and Country Birdhouse Stamp Set along with Distress Tile 3D Embossing Folder, and dies from Sketched Butterflies Dies.

These are the card cuts needed to create this card.

  • Basic Black cardstock
    • card base — 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″
    • mat for art piece — 2-3/4′ x 2-3/4″
  • Basic White cardstock
    • mat on card front — 4″ x 5-1/4″
    • art pieces — Cut 3 — 1-1/4″ x 1-1/4″
    • inside panel — 4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Wildly Flowering Designer Series Paper
    • background piece — 3-3/4′ x 5″
    • inside strip — 1-1/4″ x 4″
    • envelope flap — 2-1/4″ x 6″

I am enter these challenges:

Can You Handle The Pressure (CYHTP) Challenge

Never Before Used Schtuff  (NBUS) Challenge.  The designer series paper is the Never Before Used Schtuff.

 

The cardbase is Basic Black cardstock.  Cut a piece of the same for the background diamond.   Adhere the Wildly Flowering Designer Series piece to a piece of the Basic White cardstock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Emboss the two piece  using Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder, now that they have been adhered together.  Wrap White Twine from Basic Twine Essential Pack around the embossed piece three times, adhered in the back using tape.  Adhere the piece to the card base using adhesive of choice.  I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

  Die cut three butterflies from 2024-2026 In Color Glimmer Paper using dies from Sketched Butterflies Dies.  Using stamps from Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Wishes and Wildflower Designs Stamp Sets stamp the flower images on the Basic White squares.  I used Stampin’ Write marker to color each stamp, then stamped on the squares.  The Stampin’ Write Markers I used are Berry Burst,Crushed Curry, Fresh Freesia, and Granny Apple Green.  I then used Stampin’ Blends in the same color to color the inside of the flowers.  

Adhere the three flower squares to the Basic Black square, making sure the square is turned to create a diamond.  You can see the photo.  Adhere the three butterflies using a Glue Dot.  Pop Gems from Tinsel Gems Four Pack around the card front and on each butterfly.  The 7th Gem is inside.  On a piece of Basic Black cardstock, stamp a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Stamp Set in Versa Mark, sprinkle White Embossing Powder over the Versa Mark and heat emboss using a heat tool.  Use an Embossing Buddy to swipe the Basic Black piece so the embossing powder will only stick to the piece where the Versa Mark is stamped.  Cut the greeting into three pieces and pop on the card front, see the photo.

On a piece of Basic White cardstock stamp in Memento Black ink a sentiment using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Stamp Set. 

Adhere a piece of Wildly Flowering Designer Series Paper to a Basic White envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Products Used In Creating This Card


Stampin’ Up! Layers Of Beauty – Thinking Of You

Stampin’ Up! Layers Of Beauty – Thinking Of You

The card I am sharing today, turned out to be a real beauty!  I think it is so beautiful and hope that you like it also.  I used Stampin’ Up! Layers Of Beauty Stamp Set for the main focal part.  The flowers turned out beautifully.  I used Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Stamp Set for the greeting and Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs Stamp Set for the sentiment.

These are the card cut you will need to create this card:

  • Basic White cardstock
    • card base — 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″  score at 4-1/4″  This will be a landscape card.
    • embossed layer — 4″ x 5-1/4″ (1st layer on card front)
    • layer that image adheres — 2-3/4″ x 3-3/4″ (4th layer)
    • embossed strip inside — 3/4″ x 5-1/2″
    • inside layer image adheres  — 2″ x 2″
  • Balmy Blue cardstock
    • mat 2nd layer card front  — 3-1/4″ x 4-1/4″
    • mat inside layer — 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″
  • Crumb Cake cardstock
    • mat – 3rd layer card front — 3″ x 4″
    • mat — inside layer — 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″
  • Basic Black cardstock
    • scrap for greeting & sentiment inside
  • Subtles 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper
    • envelope flap — 2-1/4″ x 6″

The card base is Basic White cardstock with a panel and strip of the same embossed using Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder.  The panel is adhered to the card base front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  The embossed strip will be adhered to the inside of the card. (see photo later)  Adhere the Balmy Blue piece over the embossed panel centering it on the panel, then add the Crumb Cake panel and the Basic White panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere.

Using the large flower image from Stampin’ Up! Layers Of Beauty stamp  2 images in Versa Mark on a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock. Sprinkle White Embossing Powder over the stamped images, then emboss using a heat tool. Color the images using White Craft ink and a Water Painter.  You color first with the White ink so you will be able to add color to the images, other wise there will be just a dark blob.  Let the piece dry thoroughly before adding color. Color using Flirty Flamingo, Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Granny Apple Green, and Mossy Meadow inks.  Squeeze drops of each color onto a stampin block or something you can add a few drops of water to mis with each color.  Color until you get the color you desire.  Let dry, then die cut the image using a die from Layers Of Beauty Dies.  Stamp a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Versa Mark on a scrap of Basic Black cardstock.  Sprinkle White Embossing Powder and heat set using a heat tool.  Fussy cut the greeting and cut into two pieces, adhere the two pieces to the card front.

Adhered the Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake, and Basic White pieces together, then adhered over the embossed strip.  Cut one of the flower images from the 2nd flower tha was colored.  Adhere the flower over the piece adhered over the embossed strip.  Fussy cut the sentiment from Stampin’ Up!  Wildflower Designs stamp set stamped in Versa Mark and embossed using White Embossing Powder.

It isn’t necessary to add an extra panel to the back of a card, but I like to do so in case, I have a lot to say.  A panel of Basic White is adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and one of the remaining flowers is added to the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. 

A Basic White envelope gets a panel of Subtles 6′ x 6″ Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I am happy you stop  by today.  I hope you take the time to linger and look at my other blog posts 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 wilbe 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! In The Grove

Stampin’ Up! In The Grove

The card I am sharing with you today is a CAS of one Amy Koender’s created.  Click on her name and it will take you to her YouTube channel and you can watch her create the card.  Click here  and you can download her pdf of the card.  Her instructions are much more detailed than ones I can give. So if you want to make this card click on her link.

I am entering my card in the following challenge:

Krafty Chicks Challenge  

I used a different pattern of Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper, as I had used the one she used.  Mine turned out rather nice.  I colored my flowers with Stampin’ Write Markers instead of stamping all in one color.  I used Stampin’ Up! In The Grove, Grassy Grove, Wildflower Designs and Coffee With Friends Stamp Sets in creating my card. A die from The Grove Dies is used to die ut the front of the card.

I, also, die cut the row of little trees, adhering them with Multipurpose Liquid Glue in the backgound.  I added Glossy Dots from Glossy Dots Assortment to some of the trees.

This is the way the card looks when you open it to the first opening.

This is the inside of the card.  A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs Stamp Set is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock.  Trees from Stampin’ Up! In The Grove Stamp Set are stamped in the lower corner of the panel.  The panel is adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White envelope gets a panel of Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Friends For Life

Stampin’ Up! Friends For Life

The card I am sharing today is a very easy one to create, yet it turns out beautiful cards.  This will create two cards at the same time.  I used Stampin’ Up! Friends For Life Stamp Set and Dies.  I love the way the word FRIEND turned out.

I am entering  NBUS Challenge as this is a new stamp set for me.

I started with a Pecan Pie cardstock card base.   Cut two coordinating different patterns of Designer Series Paper 3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″.   I used Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper.   It made for a real nice card.   Place the two pieces of Designer Series Paper one on top of the other and be sure to keep edges together when you place them in the paper trimmer.  

Make a mark with a pencil at the top of your paper a little off center at maybe 1-3/4″ – 2″.   Turn to the long side and make a mark at 2-1/2″ – 2-3/4″.  Line these two marks up in the paper trimmer, you will be making a diagonal cut.  Once you have made the cut,  take the cut piece and place a piece from each pattern so you have two card focal panels. I also cut a piece of Basic White cardstock  3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″ to adhere the two pieces of the Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper on.  Cut a mat, 4″ x 5-1/4″, I used Basic White cardstock.

Adhere the Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper after it has been adhered to the 3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″ of Basic White cardstock to the Basic White mat.  I wrapped two lengths of Faux Leather Trimer around the piece adhering in the back of the panel with tape.  I scrunched up a Glue Dot long ways and placed under the trim on the card front to keep it in place.  I placed Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the panel and popped on the Pecan Pie card base.

I stamped a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Friends for Life Stamp Set in Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White cardstock.  I trimmed the greeting using the paper trimmer, dipped the edges of the greeting piece in Pecan Pie ink, then popped on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I stamped in Memento Black in on a piece of Pecan Pie cardstock, the word friend from Stampin’ Up! Friends For Life Stamp Set, then die cut using a die from Friends For Life Dies.

Neutral Adhesive Back Sequins are popped around the card front.

A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Stamp Set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White cardstock. An image from Stampin’ Up! Lovely & Sweet Stamp Set is stamped in Memento Black ink in the corner of the panel and colored using a Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I am happy you stop  by today.  I hope you take the time to linger and look at my other blog posts and cards and that you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.

This is just a diagram I created to show how to die cut the opening.   Keep the card open, you do not want to accidently cut through both pieces of your card.   See the card for the Lovely Lavender  paper. After die cutting the opening, emboss the panel using Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder, then adhere to the card front. Be sure to emboss the side that faces up when you take the panel from the card base after die cutting so the two pieces will fit together again.  If you emboss the other side they will not fit.

Cut the pop out mechanism 1″ x 5″ scoring at 1-1/4″, 2-1/2″, and 3-3/4″.  The second photo shows how the pop out will look once folded.Now add the Pop Out Mechanism inside of the card by adding adhesive to one end first,  (see photo,) it adhered right at the score line of the card base, then fold the mechanism in half and adhere adhesive to the area marked on the card front, then close card front (note your mechanism  will be hanging down into the window)

This is the way the Pop Out Mechanism works once it is attached.  The greeting label will adhere to the Pop Out.

Stamp a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves stamp set on the cut out label, then adhere to the Pop Out Mechanism.

Using dies from Wildflowers Designs Dies die cut these two pieces from Gorgeous Grape cardstock. This is just my sample. You can see the photo of the actual card above.

The photos will show how each frame is adhered to the card front around the greeting even though the greeting label does not show in this photo.  You can see it in the photo of the card.

You can see I adhered another panel of Basic White with a sentiment and flowers before adhering the Pop Out Mechanism.  This is how the Pop Out looks flat.

I used a piece of the inside of  an envelope from the Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin to go on the envelope flap.  Don’t ask me why I didn’t just use the envelope, it just now dawned on me, that is what I should have done. 

I am happy you stop  by today.  I hope you take the time to linger and look at my other blog posts 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 wilbe 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!

If you love card making as a hobby, you can still be a demonstrator and get that discount to help get more card making items,  or you can be like I was and buy Stampin’ Up! products for 10 years before I became wise enough to become a demonstrator to get the discount.  When I think of all the stamping products that 20% would have brought over those 10 years, I cringe.
