Stampin’ Up! A Touch of Ink

Good Morning! Are you happy it is Friday or does your weekend come in the middle of the week. That does happen to so many people they have two days off from work in the middle of the week and work weekends.

The card today is a Thinking of You card with the greeting being from the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set. When you have a Thinking of You card it can be made into a birthday card, sympathy, encouragement, or any kind you chose by the sentiment you have on the inside of the card. That is what is so great about putting Thinking of You as the greeting. This card also features the A Touch of Ink Stamp Set, using the hummingbird and flower for the art piece.

Inspiration comes from the Fusion Challenge. I am playing with both sides, the sketch & the photo.

Start with a card base of Basic White card stock. Adhere a panel of Bermuda Bay card stock over the front of the card base. Next, adhere one of the green panels of DSP from the Oh So Ombre DSP. Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere these panels together.

On a panel of Basic White card stock stamp in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink the flower from the Touch of Ink Stamp Set. Stamp the Thinking of You greeting from the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set.

Stamp the hummingbird on a separate panel of card stock from the A Touch of Ink Stamp Set so it can be fussy cut. Color the hummingbird and flower using Stampin’ Blends Markers in Shaded Spruce, Highland Heather, and Purple Posy.

Cut two strips of DSP, one from the Oh So Ombre DSP and one from the Butterfly Bijou DSP. Flag one end of the Oh So Ombre strip. Adhere the flagged strip over the longer strip then adhere both to the right edge of the card front. Pop three pearls from the Pastel Pearls to the card front.

On a pink panel of the Oh So Ombre DSP stamp a sentiment from the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set. Stamp the flower and hummingbird from the A Touch of Ink Stamp Set and color with the same markers as the flower and hummingbird on the card front.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Flower & Field DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Prettiest Birthday with Flower & Field

Can you believe there are only a few days left in February? Christmas will be here before you know it.

The card today is another created using a Sale-A-Bration Free item. Sale-A-Bration will end on February 28, so only a few days left to get free items. The featured products used in this card are the Prettiest Birthday Stamp Set for the greeting and the Flower & Field DSP.

My inspiration for my card comes from As You See It Challenge — The Colour That Makes Me Feel the Most Cozy Is. The colors that make me feel the coziest are reds and black. Guess I am a Dawg fan at heart!

I started by adhering a panel of Flower & Field DSP to a Real Red card stock base.

Cut a panel of the Flower & Field DSP and crop a heart using a dies from the Stitched Be Mine Dies. Adhere to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Cut a panel of Vellum card stock and adhere on the left side using a Mini Glue Dot. Pop the Flower & Field heart over the Vellum using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. Stamp the Happy Birthday greeting from the Punch Party Stamp Set in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on the red heart.

Randomly place the red and white heart from the Resin Hearts around the card front.

On a panel of Basic White card stock, stamp a sentiment from the Prettiest Birthday Stamp Set in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. A border of the Flower & Field DSP.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Flower & Field DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Hey Chick

This is a cute little card that I CASEd from Debbie O’Neil. Here is her video on creating this cute card.

This is the outside when the card is closed.

Her instructions are very detailed and easy to follow. Her instructions are much more than I could write on creating this card so for written instructions, go to her site.

This is the first view after you open the doors.

This is what you see when you have the card all the way open.

I am entering my card in the Creative Fingers Challenge. Anything Goes.

Stampin’ Up! Hey Chick

Have a great Friday! I think we are going to have sunshine.

My card today is with the fun Hey Chick Stamp Set. I made my cute little chick into a leprechaun. How do you like that little hat? I think I may start a hat business — what do you think? I also use the Subtle Embossing Folder, the Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder, and the Painted Labels.

My challenges are:

Addicted to Stamps and More — Any Occasion

And Watercooler Wednesday – Dawn’s Challenge: Anything Goes With A Masculine Twist.

Start with a Garden Green card stock card base. Emboss a panel of Night of Navy card stock using the Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder. Adhere to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I did not have a panel of DSP the color I wanted so I created my own with a panel of the In Good Taste DSP. Cut a panel of the In Good Taste DSP and color using Garden Green ink and a Water Painter. I drug the ink pad over the DSP panel then dropped water from the Water Painter and spread it around with the brush. I let it dry overnight so that it would be thoroughly dry.

After the panel has dried overnight, adhere to the Night of Navy panel. Crop the Basic White card stock circle using a die from the Painted Label Dies. Adhere it to the Garden Green DSP.

Stamp the funky chicken from the Hey Chick Stamp Set on a small panel of Basic White card stock using Tuxedo Memento Black ink. Color using a Cajun Craze Stampin’ Blends Marker to color the hair. Use Mango Melody Stampin’ Blends Marker to color the chicken, with accents of Pumpkin Pie on his tail and feet. Pop the bowtie that has been cropped from a scrap of the made DSP at his neck.

The Happy Saint Paddy’s Day is fussy cut from an old magazine and popped over the Basic White card stock circle using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cropped hearts from the Stitched Be Mine Dies using Garden Green card stock and embossed each one with a different embossing folder, Hammered Metal, Scripty, Ornate Floral, and Seabed Folders to create shamrocks. The big shamrock is cropped and adhered to the top of the card. The smaller shamrock is cropped from the Basic White card stock and then the Garden Green pieces are adhered behind each heart to create the shamrock.

The medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the created Garden Green DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Playful Pets

Monday is here. Are you ready for another great week? Have you been making one Christmas card a day to get ahead of the rush. I think it is only 316 days until Christmas so you have 300 days. If you make two-three a week, you will be finished early. Use a simple stamp set that you know will be returning next Christmas season.

My design inspiration for today is the TGIF Sketch Challenge for the week.

Since all my little creatures are fussy cut from DSP I believe it would qualify for Crafty Hazelnuts Pattern Paper Challenge.

Since my card is lots of animals, I believe I am eligible for the Crafty Animals: Challenge #47.

And 2 Crafty Critter Crazies Challenge.

My cute critters are from the Playful Pets Designer Series Paper as is the background panel with all the writing. My card is a CASE of Krista Cleary-Yagci’s card. You can see her card here.

The card base for my critters is Real Red card stock. The black and white stripe mat you see is from the True Love DSP. The red stripe is from the Playful Pets DSP.

All the little critters are fussy cut from the Playful Pets DSP as are the hearts that surround them. The Love is cropped from Real Red card stock using a dies from the Well Written Dies.

The sentiment panel has a strip of the Playful Pals DSP applied at the bottom of the Basic White card stock panel. One of the little critters wants to play with us so she is hiding and only showing her tail.

The medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Playful Pets DSP adhered to the envelope flap. Multipurpose glue and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals are the two adhesives used for adhering the critters to their places on the card front.
