3 completely different cards with the Friendly Hello bundle; WOW!

January 21, 2022

Our Sale-a-Bration promotion is everyone's favorite time of year; who doesn't love to get something free?!

This year our product line includes a stamp set & 12 X 12" designer paper combo called Friendly Hello. I love both the stamps and the DSP. The stamps include floral, botanical and greeting images and the paper can be either soft & pretty or bright & eye catching!

Save

Look at these three extremely different cards all featuring the same stamps & DSP:

Save

This card is one I made for an online swap I participated in. I chose to use the Granny Apple Green sheet of DSP and paired it with Black & White. It's a simple layout that really shows off the colors & products.

Details:

The greeting is stamped onto a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends die.
That delicate leaf die-cut is from the Tropical Layers dies in the Jan-June catalog.
The butterfly is from the Catching Butterflies Sale-a-Bration stamp set.

Next is a pretty swap Ginny made but so much softer in colors.

Save

She covered the entire card front with her Designer Paper and added a banner from another sheet of the DSP under the main White scalloped piece. She stamped in Gray Granite and colored in the bird & flowers with Blends markers.

Lastly today is another card I made for a swap. I paired the Pool Party sheet of this Designer Paper with Early Espresso. I've always loved these colors together. I stamped the flowers in Early Espresso ink onto our Vellum card stock and immediately heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Yes you CAN emboss with our Classic ink pads!

Save

I textured the Pool Party card stock with the new Gingham embossing folder and rounded the upper right corner. I also cut our new frayed 3/4" White ribbon in half lengthwise and wrapped it round the left edge of the card stock.

Thanks so much for stopping in to see my projects today! If you want to get this pretty pack of Designer Paper & the Friendly Hello stamp set click here to see it. It's free with any $100 purchase right now!

Spring Catalog display boards

January 26, 2024

I thought I'd share some of my display boards featuring Spring Catalog products. I've heard back that you enjoy these so here you go…..

First up is the Hot Air Balloon and Bee My Valentine projects:

Save

Remember that many of these are swaps and are not made by me. I like to group cards together that use the same stamp set or designer paper.

Here is the Hot Air Balloon dies display. See the Hot Air Balloon bundle here.

Save

Next is the Perennial Lavender suite plus the Hills of Tuscany stamp set on the lower left.

Save

Here's a close-up of the Perennial Postage dies I put together. These are fabulous! See them online here.

Next is the Nature's Sweetness suite that features two bundles!

Save

Below is the die display I created that is part of the Notes of Nature bundle seen here.

Below is the Lovely & Sweet dies display; see that bundle here.

The Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin kit is stunning! *get a pre-paid subscription & earn free SAB choices!

January 25, 2024
I received my January Paper Pumpkin kit yesterday and for the first time ever, I sat down and finished the entire kit! Here are my cards.

Save

The original kit makes 8 cards and 4 tags. I added 4 card bases and a few extra coordinating cardstock strips and ended up with 12 cards! They released the add on kit for the Lovely Lavender card kit today; it's just $11.50 and you can see it here. It comes with everything but the stamp set & ink spot!

*I love these cards so much I'm featuring the add-on kit in a card kit to go in February!

Here's another alternative idea I made with the kit:

Save

I used our Deckled Circle dies and the new Love of Spring 'add-on' dies for Paper Pumpkin subscribers. The 'love' and the label die-cut are from these dies! These dies can be seen here and are just $12.

I textured the white circle with the Exposed Brick embossing folder and added a 3/4" Garden Green strip to the Highland Heather card base. The twine is from the kit and the gems are our new Fine Shimmer Purple gems.

Save

If you aren't a Paper Pumpkin subscriber I want to consider it. The kits are worlds better than they were in the past. I love receiving one every month and having easy creative projects I can do when I have free time. No planning or prep; just creative fun!

Save

Here are your choices when subscribing to Paper Pumpkin:
1. Purchase a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month subscription here. *get free Sale-a-Bration choices through February!!
2. Subscribe to receive a kit each month here.
I highly recommend getting the 12 month pre-paid choice. When you do, if you add just $57 more to the 12-month subscription, you'll get 2 more for a total of 6 ($50) SAB choices + $36 hostess rewards + extra $30 hostess rewards! It's a pretty good deal!

Save
Did you know that you are in charge of which kits you receive? Once you purchase a pre-paid subscription or subscribe you can opt out of any kit you do not want. Stampin' Up! shares what's coming up each month so you can decide if you want it or not. You have complete control!

Gorgeous Rocker cards with a video tutorial & free project sheet!

January 24, 2024

Here's another special card I shared on last week's Live video. It's called a 'rocker card'.

Save

The pretty roses are from the Softly Stippled designer series paper – seen here in our Sale-a-Bration catalog. I fussy cut the roses on the upper circles and colored them with Pool Party ink and a Wink of Stella. I love coloring with my Wink of Stella as it adds a beautiful shimmer. Watch the video below to see how.

It's made with our Deckled Circle dies seen here. There are a ton of them in the set – 14 sizes! They carried over from our Holiday catalog and can be seen online.

Save

For the card base I used the second from the largest die; it's almost 5 1/2" wide. Once you cut it, score it in half at 2 3/4".

Of course you'll use the next size down for the front half layer and the inside.

I post at least two of these free tutorials each week! I hope you'll subscribe to my blog. Go to the right side and click on 'get email updates'. Then you won't miss a thing!

The second sample was made with Calypso Coral & Pebbled Path. It seems like Pebbled Path is a perfectly beautiful color to pair most of our soft colors with.

My greetings are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle seen here. It's paired with a beautiful embossing folder and is free with any $100 purchase from Stampin' Up!.
