Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed

Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed

It is TGIF for all of us!  There used to be a restaurant here called that when I still worked at the school system, but it has ended up being called just Friday’s.  Teachers gathered there after school on Friday.

My card today features Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed Designer Series Paper(DSP) and the Stampin’ Up! Very Versatile Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Verdant Garden Stamp Set.

The House That Stamps Built — What If? — Wednesday Sketch Challenge is my challenge for the day.

Start with a card base of Stampin’ Up! Purple Posy card stock and add a background panel of Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed Designer Series Paper.  To this background panel, add on the left side, a narrow panel which is the reverse side of the background panel and matted on a Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock panel.  

Add another narrow matted panel on the right side which is also from the Best Dressed DSP. Over these two narrow panels adds two mats for the art piece that have been cropped from Petal Pink and Purple Posy card stock using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Dies.  Adhere these together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, then pop over the two narrow panels.  To the top of the Purple Posy panel add the three hearts that have been cropped using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Be Mine Dies.  Two of the hearts are embossed using the Subtle Embossing Folder just as the Stitched So Sweet panel has been.

The greet “LOVE” is from the Stampin’ Up!  Verdant Garden Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Pretty Peacock ink on a scrap of Petal Pink card stock and then fussy cut around the word.  Several sequins from Stampin’ Up! Basic Adhesive-Backed Sequins are randomly placed on the card front. A tiny Whisper White Twine bow is added to the top heart.

The sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Forever Lovely Stamp Set is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock and adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A little collage of flowers are fussy cut from the Best Dressed DSP and adhered to the panel.

The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of DSP from the Best Dressed DSP.

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! Back On Your Feet

Stampin’ Up! Back On Your Feet

Welcome!  Here it is Monday and we have a whole new week ago, so make the most of it.  Time once gone can never be regained!

I found these two fun challenges so I am giving them a try.  

The first is Crafty Animals.

And …  2 Crafty Critter Crazies.    


Stampin’ Up! Back on  Your Feet is the stamp set used to create this card I am sharing with you today.  It is a cute stamp set with little critters and a pain in the neck giraffe.  My card base is Stampin’ Up! Granny Apple Green card stock with a Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Grape card stock mat for the art piece. 

The art piece is stamped on Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock using Tuxedo Memento Black ink to stamp the images.  The images are from the Stampin’ Up! Back on Your Feet Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Verdant Garden

The images are colored using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends  Light and Dark Granny Apple Green, Light Daffodil Delight, and Light and Dark Crumb Cake.  The greetings are stamped in Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather ink and Granny Apple Green ink.

The sentiment is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather ink on a panel of Whisper White.  The critters are stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored the same as the ones on the card front.

The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Garden Lane Designer Series Paper added to the envelope flap for the final finishing touches. 

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.
