Casing my friend with Caring Leaves & video

September 23, 2024

Last week I was out of town to see my son get married in the beautiful Grand Tetons National Park in Wyoming.

The photographer was incredible; I have to share some of her early shots with you. It was a quick trip but we were blessed to be there for the small ceremony. We had a wonderful time driving through the stunning park with the photographer scouting out photo opportunities. We're thrilled to add Katrina to our family!

Today I'm sharing the swap card I made for our Team card swap this month:

My colors include Pretty Peacock, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Beige & Very Vanilla. Peacock is one of my favorite 'outside the box' colors for autumn projects.

Two of my favorite types of stamps are 2-step and Distinktive and this set is both! It's a sweet & simple set & it's just $17. See it here.

CARING LEAVES PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET (ENGLISH)

When I was planning my card for the swap I came across the card on the left below. It's one my friend Susie Wood made awhile ago. I loved the layout and cased it using the Caring Leaves set.

Save

Casing a favorite card or layout is my go to when designing a new project. It's fun to switch up colors and products while using the same design.

I created a video that's posted below. I stamped the outline leaves on the large Pretty Peacock layer before embossing it with the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder. I also stamped an extra leaf to fussy cut and add under the tag. See the measurements below.

Measurements:

Basic Beige 4 1/4" X 11" score at 5 1/2"
Pretty Peacock 2 3/4" X 5 1/2", 2 3/4" X 4

Happy Thoughts Fun Fold cards kit to go; opt in by the 18th!

January 12, 2021

Lately I've been offering two different pre-cut card kits each month. I'm finding so many great products to feature; I cannot help it! And I like offering a variety of options for my customers.

Did you notice the Happy Thoughts stamp set in the new Spring catalog? It's filled with beautiful greetings; something many of us cannot get enough of. So I created a group of 8 fun fold cards around this set. Look!

Save

I also decided to use the Happy Blooms designer paper; I love the colors & patterns so much. This paper is free with any $50 online order from now through February 28th. See it here.

Here are two unique cards in this kit. Remember you get two of each in the kit; one to keep for ideas and one to send.

I also used a few images from the Pretty Perennials stamp set; but any floral set could work.

January’s Card Kits to go; 1st is True Love black & white with pops of color!

January 11, 2021
I was so happy when I saw the True Love designer paper in the new Spring Catalog. I absolutely LOVE black & white prints in our papers! I find it's the most versatile to use since you can add ANY COLOR you want to it and Black and White makes it POP!

Save

If you like to fussy cut or color you'll fall in love with this pretty paper.

Look at these pretty cards! And you can color the floral images with markers OR fussy cut them out to add beautiful detail to the cards.

Save

I created 5 cards; two of each design for a total of 10 cards. Three of the five designs are unique fun folds too. *see photo below

You'll receive all pre-cut, punched & die-cut pieces, 1/2 package of True Love Designer paper (6" X 12"), black glittered ribbon, Black matte gems and a share of 2020-22 In Color enamel dots so you can finish these cards at home.

I chose to use the Vine Design stamp set since it's full of a wide variety of greetings and the lovely vine and floral images too. You can add on either the stamp set or bundle at an extra 10%! It fits in the package and costs nothing extra in shipping costs. And if you do you can choose a free Sale-a-Bration choice also.

I used Black, Real Red and Just Jade inks. Remember you'll stamp your own images.

Who doesn't love free!? There is a bonus stamp set added to every order over $300 during Sale-a-Bration this year. It's called Punch Party & is available to both customers and demonstrators too! One thing I love about Stampin' Up! is that us demonstrators enjoy the same perks as customers!

Save

I was able to pre-order this set during December; another favorite perk of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.

Details:
- I also used a new and FREE Designer Paper called Paper Blooms here. The colors are Seaside Spray with Navy & White. I use this pretty color combo often.
- Can you tell it's a fun fold? The Seaside Spray is 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". I added texture with the Meadow Moments embossing folder. The Navy layer is a quarter sheet 5 1/2" X 4 1/4".
- I punched a white Small Bloom punch and added a pearl to the center. It's sponged for a bit of color.
- The main image is stamped and punched out with the Rectangular Postage Punch.
