Stampin’ Up! Playing In The Rain — Hey There!

Stampin’ Up! Playing In The Rain — Hey There!

This was a fun card to create.  This is just a friendly card wishing a friend a happy day.  I used Rain or Shine Designer Series Paper, February 2023 Paper Pumpkin, Sunshine & Smiles, Raindrops Embossing Folder, and Stampin’ Up! Playing In The Rain stamp set and Playing In The Rain Dies to create this card.

I used a card base from the Sunshine & Smiles Paper Pumpkin Kit.  I embossed a panel of Balmy Blue card stock using the Raindrops Embossing Folder, adhering to the inside panel so the raindrops would show through the opening.  A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments stamp set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White card stock and cropped using a die from Sentiment Silhouettes Dies.  The greeting is popped in the upper corner using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a gray panel behind the opening on the card front. I cropped a bridge from Crumb Cake card stock using a die from Playing In The Rain Dies.  I popped this across the opening on the card front.  The cute Tommy Turtle is posted on one end of the bridge Roscoe Rabbit is posted on the other end.  They are so happy to be out in the sunshine once again, now that Spring is here.

Tommy Turtle has picked his Mom a flower from the flowers on the hill that appears in the open window.  A spring rain shower has just passed leaving a cloud and puddle behind that Roscoe Rabbit decided it would be fun to jump in. Roscoe Rabbit thought we need a bit of bling so he looked in the Sunshine & Smiles Paper Pumpkin and found just what he was looking for, taking a few in his hand, he threw them into the air. One of the gems landed at Tommy Turtle’s foot, one landed on the greeting and the other was coming back to land near him.

A piece of Old Olive card stock is cut to create a hill and embossed using one of the dies from Basic 3D Dies.  I think this die gives the appearance of grace blowing in the wind.  Freddie Frog and Charley Chick love the grass to play in. Charley Chick may decide to go pluck the centers out of the flowers on the hill, while Freddie Frog is thinking of joining Roscoe Rabbit in the puddle.  They are singing Happy Spring, happy, happy everything.  They found this sentiment on their Aunt Amy’s Pinterest when Happy Spring was popped in the search feature then came the task of finding the long-retired stamp set.

I used one of the envelopes from Sunshine & Smiles Paper Pumpkin Kit to go with this card.

Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms – i like you – Fun Fold

Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms – i like you – Fun Fold

This is an easy Fun Fold card that I am sharing with you today.  It is created using Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms stamp set and Dies also, the Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper.  This is a card we made today during our Team Meeting today. Carol Buckalew, a  team member,  did the demonstrating of the card .  She had sent instructions and card cuts so we would be ready to participate.  During our team meeting each month, three team members will volunteer to share their card making with the team.

I am entering the Daisy Chain Challenge for this card as their theme is flowers and my card is full of flowers.

The card base is Flirty Flamingo card stock cut at 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″.  The inside card is cut 2″ x 11″ from a piece of Flirty Flamingo card stock also. Score this piece at 2-3/4″, 5-1/2″, and 8-1/4″.

Cut three (3) pieces of Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″.  One for the front of the card, I used one that has flowers on it, it makes a beautiful card.  The two (2) pieces I cut for the inside is the Flirty Flamingo & Daffodil Delight Plaid.  You will see it in the next photo.

Crop six (6) leaves using a panel of the Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper. I used one of the Pretty Peacock panels.  Crop three (3) small flowers and one (1) large flower from a Flirty Flamingo panel of the Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper.

Cut a Basic White card stock strip 3/4″ x 5-1/2″.  This is to stamp a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Flirty Flamingo ink on the strip and then adhere across the card front. On one end of the greeting strip arrange the flowers and leaves  and adhere using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals.

This is the inside of the card with the panel on each end adhered down with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  The fold in the middle is a mountain fold, the other two are valley folds.  Before adhering to the card base, add the Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper to three of the panels.  On the first panel stamp a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink or Evening Evergreen ink, if you do not still have a Pretty Peacock stamp pad. (I believe Pretty Peacock ink will be one of the colors returning to us in May as Stampin’ Up! included it in the Designer Series Paper) then adhere to the first panel on the inside card, see photo above.  Adhere two of the small flowers and leaves cropped from the Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper to the two middle panels.  Add another sentiment onto the Basic White piece which is the last panel.

Add Iridescent Pastel Gems to the card front.

I adhered a panel of Hello Irresistible Designer Series Pa per to the flap of a Basic White Medium Envelope

Stampin’ Up! Regency Park with Irresistible Blooms

The card I am sharing today is created using Regency Park Designer Series Paper, Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms stamp set and dies, and Enjoy The Adventure Memories and More Card Pack.

I am entering the AAA Birthday Card Challenge as my card can be considered stripes as I have cut piece of different Designer Series Paper to create the stripes.

My card base is Basic White card stock.  I embossed half of a panel of Basic White card stock using one of the embossing folders from  Let’s Celebrate Embossing Folders.

I cut different size strips from Regency Park Designer Series Paper and adhered to the embossed panel.  I cropped  a circle using the lacy circle die from Irresistible Blooms Dies from Basic White card stock.  I adhered over the Regency Park Designer Series strips. 

I fussy cut flowers and leaves from a panel of the Regency Park Designer Series Paper.  I adhered the flowers around the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I stamped a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Night of Navy ink on a piece of Basic White card stock and cropped using the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch.  I popped the greeting on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Basic Rhinestone Basic Jewels are colored using a Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends Marker.  They are then popped around the card front. 

I adhered a panel of Regency Park Designer Series Paper to the flap of a Basic White Medium Envelope.

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Thistle with Fragrant Flowers

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Thistle with Fragrant Flowers

My card today is created using Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set and Dies.  I also used the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder, and a piece of Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper

My design today comes from the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.

My card base is Basic White card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder.  After embossing I adhered the embossed panel to the card base.  I cut a piece of Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper adhering down the left side of the embossed panel.

I stamped the flowers from Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Memento Black ink.  I colored the flowers using Polish Pink and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I cropped a leaf and flower buds from Basic White card stock tucking them under the flowers with a dab of Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered a greeting at the top of the card from and after adhering with Multipurpose Liquid Glue, I realized I should have adhered at the bottom of the card front, but being stuck tight I had to be happy with where I had placed it.

I stamped a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Thistle stamp set in Polished Pink on the inside panel adding a panel that I had created with what is called Twisted Ribbon on the side of the panel.

I adhered a panel of Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper to the flap of a Basic White Medium Envelope.

Stampin’ Up! Queen Bee Hello

Stampin’ Up! Queen Bee Hello

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Queen Bee stamp set and the Stampin’ Up! Honeybee Home stamp set.  This is a card I saw from Brandy Cox.

This challenge goes well with my card today, as there are always lots of bees in the Spring.

I am also entering the Creative Creases Challenge as it is always a fun fold and my card is a fun fold today.

I started with a piece of Basic White card stock 8-1/2″ x 11″  scored at 4-1/4″ on the short side and 5-1/2″ on the long side.  On the 8-1/2″ side cut down the score line to the 5-1/2″ score line. The piece cut out can be used to cut the 2-1/2 x 3″ piece for the inside sentiment.  This will be the card base. I stamped the Queen Bee from Stampin’ Up! Queen Bee stamp set in Versa Mark, sprinkled Gold Embossing Powder and heat embossed using a heat tool.  I cropped the bee using a die from Queen Bee Dies.  I stamped in Mossy Meadow ink the flower spray from Stampin’ Up!  Queen Bee stamp set.  I used Old Olive and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers to color.  I cropped flowers, twigs, sprigs, and leaves from Stampin’ Up! Honeybee Home stamp set from Old Olive and Mossy Meadow card stock.  I cropped one leaves bunch from Distressed Gold Specialty Paper.   I stamped a bee from Stampin’ Up! Honeybee Home stamp set and colored using Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Marker.  All of these will be arranged on the card front and inside once the card base is finished.

  1.  Cut 3-1/4″ off the bottom of the card front.  From the piece cut off, cut five 1/2″ x 4-1/4″ strips.  Cut the strip that is left in half, this gives you two strips that will be used to anchor the other strips together. 
  2.   With the sticky side out adhere a piece of Washi Tape to the middle of the card front so you can position the strips on the card front.
  3. Start at the bottom for the first strip, next place a strip at the top, leaving a space between the strip and the card base.  Place a strip in the middle. 
  4. Wait until you have all the strips positioned before pressing down on the tape. If you need to adjust the space between the strips it will be easier to do if they are not stuck tight to the Washi Tape.
  5. Place a dot of Liquid Glue on each strip and place one of the two strips left over the glue and press down.     I waited until I had both strips in place so I could adjust if necessary.
  6. Turn the over so the Washi Tape is showing and gently remove the tape. Pressing down on each strip as you pull the tape will help prevent tearing the card stock.
  7. This is how the card front looks after you have finished with all the strips and trimming the excess from the bottom of the card.

I cut a 3-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ piece of Daffodil Delight card stock and stamped it in Cajun Craze ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Queen Bee stamp set.  I  scored the piece at 4-1/4″ and cut from the score line to the corner, then wrapped the piece around the card front into the inside.  This is for a gift card or whatever you choose to place in the pocket.

I cut a piece of Mossy Meadow card stock 3-18″ x 3-7/8″ for a mat for the 2-1/2″ x 3″ Basic White piece.  On the Basic White piece, I stamped a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink.  These are adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and then adhered to the card base using the same.

I stamped a strip of Daffodil Delight card stock in Cajun Craze ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Queen Bee stamp set.  I adhered the strip to a Medium Basic White envelope and trimmed the excess from the flap.
