Stampin’ Up! Country Home Stamp Set – Stampin with Shirley G

Stampin’ Up! Country Home

October 7, 2019 admin

Well here it is Monday and we had a delightful weekend. World Card Making Day is in the history books now. We had a fantastic time with team members from Amy’s Inkin’ Krew and Mary’s Critters ‘N Krew celebrating the day. I hope you had the opportunity to see some of their presentations on card making. There was an event from 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. and it was awesome. Hopefully, another one will be planned before October 2020 when World Card Making Day occurs again.

Do you have stamp sets you have purchased and never used? Well, I have many and it is time for me to start using them instead of relying on the 2-3 that have become ole standbys.

The stamp set I am using today is one I may have used once, so I am giving it a try. It is Stampin’ Up! Country Home Stamp Set. This turned out to be a lovely card I think.

The challenge for today is with Sketch Saturday.

It looks all Christmasy because of the Stampin’ Up! Cherry Cobbler and Stampin’ Up! Shaded Spruce but it is a birthday card. I started with a Stampin’ Up! Shaded Spruce card stock as the card base and then embossed an additional panel using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder instead of just embossing the card front.

I stamped the image in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and then colored using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends in colors Light Crumb Cake, Light Cherry Cobbler and Light Shaded Spruce, Light Balmy Blue, Light Old Olive, and Light Mossy Meadow. I used a fine tip black marker to make the dots on the art piece.

The art piece is cropped using dies from Stampin’ Up! Two different sizes were used. I made a frame of Cherry Cobbler card stock to go around the art piece. A strip of Stampin’ Up! Wrapped in Plaid is adhered across the center of the card and the art piece is popped over it. A few sprigs of pine are cropped with one of the dies from the Stampin’ Up! In The Woods Dies. Three pearls are scattered over the front of the card.

The inside sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set and the greeting on the card front is from the Stampin’ Up! Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set.

My Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap got a panel of the Wrapped in Plaid DSP adhered, cause Mary Deatherage has taught us no “Neked” envelopes.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Country Home

July 17, 2019 admin

As my friend and teammate, Mary Deatherage would say “today is HAWWWP DAY!” Make it a happy one!

My card today is from Stampin’ Up! Country Home Stamp Set.

My card creation is all white with just the pop of the color of the art piece and ribbon. I think it makes the flowers pop.

My challenge for the day is Try Stamping on Tuesday.

The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock background panel has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Tin Tile 3D Embossing Folder. This is a nice embossing folder and I am so happy it is one of the ones that carried forward in the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. Before being adhered to the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue a length of Stampin’ Up! Terracotta Tile Scalloped Linen Ribbon is wrapped around the panel and adhered on the back with Stampin’ Up! Glue Dots.

The art piece is stamped using a stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Country Home Stamp Set and the flower stamp from the Stampin’ Up! May Paper Pumpkin, Hugs From Shelli. The pitcher is stamped using Stampin’ Up! Balmy Blue ink and then lightly coloring with the Balmy Blue watercolor pencil from the Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Pencils. The pitcher is masked so the flowers can be stamped.

The flowers are stamped using Tuxedo Memento Black ink and then colored using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends in Light and Dark Flirty Flamingo, Light and Dark Petal Pink and Light Old Olive. They too had to be masked so that three bunches of the flowers could be stamped to fill the pitcher. After coloring the art panel is popped on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. The greeting is stamped on a scrap of Whisper White card stock in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and cut and popped on the card front using a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional.

The inside sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Flourishing Phrases Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock. The art at the bottom is a semi portion of the art piece on the card front where once again, I had to mask the images so that I could stamp the flowers twice.

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the color theme of the card. I gave the envelope flap a little embossing using the Stampin’ Up! Tin Tile 3D Embossing Folder. It doesn’t show up very well on the white paper in the picture but if you look close you can see it.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you like my card and find inspiration from it. Have a blessed day!
