If you just arrived here be sure to click on the icon at the end of each post to see it all.  Or maybe you just arrived from Melissa's blog.  I love her style! 

I'm focusing on the Garden Wishes stamp set & Dandy Wishes dies today. Both are marked down 40-50% right now!  

This first card is bright & colorful in Magenta Madness, Black & White.  I love a black & white card with a pop of color.  

Floating Technique All Together Save

The Designer Paper is the All Together 6 X 6" DSP; it's a special collection ending in May. 

I used the 'Floating' technique here.  I adhered strips of various widths of Designer Series Paper to a piece of Window Sheet and die-cut it out with the largest circle in our Layering Circle dies.  Then I added dimensionals to the back and adhered it to a 4 X 5 1/4" White card stock that's been textured with the Gingham embossing folder. 

Products retiring:

  • Dandy Wishes dies
  • Garden Wishes stamp set
  • All Together 6 X 6" DSP

I just love these Dandy Wishes die-cuts!  They are unique. fun and give lots of texture to our projects.

Next is a pretty card that's soft and almost ethereal instead of bright & bold.  The colors include Pool Party, White & Calypso Coral.  

I used the same greeting from the Garden Wishes stamp set and the same round 'Dandy Wishes' dies but also added more die-cuts in the set. I also sponged the center of the round die-cuts with Calypso Coral ink.

Notice the two sizes of the White 'dandelions'? I trimmed off a few of the thin, outer petals on one for a smaller flower. The Designer Paper background is from the Flowering Fields DSP in the 2022 January-June catalog. 

I am SUPER SAD that the Tailored Tag punch is retiring.  It's so easy to layer this one! Just cut a second one in half horizontally. It's my 'go to' punch for greetings. If you don't have this punch, get it now; it's on sale! 

Retiring items:

  • Dandy Wishes dies
  • Garden Wishes stamp set
  • Flowering Fields DSP
  • Tailored Tag punch

  • 3 sets of quick Stack & Cute cards; with video & template!

    One week ago I shared my Stack & Cut cards in a FB live video.  I couldn't stop at one set since they're so quick & easy.  I made 3 different sets of cards!  Click here to watch the video. 

    Follow me on FB here; so you can watch my weekly videos. 

    This first set features the Hues of Happiness designer paper from the upcoming new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  It goes live tomorrow and you can all start ordering (collecting) new products!

    The card bases are Pool Party and the large layer is Highland Heather.  I used a variety of circle dies for the main greeting.  The stitched banners are from a new set of dies called Stylish Shapes; it's filled with stitched circles, squares and banners.  

    Here's the template I used for the 'Stack & Cut' pieces.  Choose 4 sheets of DSP and cut two at once.  They're layered on a 4" X 5 1/4" piece then added to your main card base.  So quick & easy and it uses up that Designer Paper you're hoarding!

    The 2nd set of cards features the Tea Boutique designer paper.  It's a 6 X 6" stack filled with all of the new In Colors!  The greeting is from the Good Feelings stamp set.  

    The colors include Sweet Sorbet and Starry Sky.

    Here are all of them in one photo.  If you make a set of these cards please share them here in my FB group by May 8th to get in on Prize Patrol for a free embellishment.  I'd love to see YOUR version of these neat cards.

    And lastly here is the first set I made with the Heart & Home DSP from the January-June catalog. This paper is filled with soft prints and a variety of whitewashed wood on each sheet.  The colors include Pale Papaya, Garden Green White & Smoky Slate.  The greetings are from the Blessings of Home bundle; which is carrying over into the new Annual Catalog.

  • A CUTE Kite Delight card idea; shared in a video with blending & coloring tips

    Here is another playful card made with the Kite Delight stamp set in the 2022 January-June Stampin' Up! catalog.  

    Kite Delight clouds Save

    I used a Blending Brush and Coastal Cabana ink to create a soft sky background.  Then the kite tails were stamped using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers.  Each kit was stamped using the coordinating color of card stock – Highland Heather, Daffodil Delight and Coastal Cabana.  They are fussy cut since there is not a set of dies to match.  I don't mind this at all since they're easy to cut out. 

    This stamp set is NOT carrying over into the new catalog and will retire at the end of May. See it here:

    I used the Pick a Banner punch on the Highland Heather greeting banner.  The banner & kits are all popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals.

    I also created two other cards during the video.  See all three cards below:
