Golden Honey Birthday Candles! So cute!

March 18, 2020

I saw a card like this online and HAD to make one! I believe the original designer is Libby Fens. Look at this colorful, clever card!

I wish I'd come up with the idea myself but I cased it. Sometimes I feel a bit guilty casing from others. But when people case me I take it as a huge compliment. So I get over my guilt pretty quickly! 😉

The candles are made from the Golden Honey specialty designer paper that was available as part of our Sale-a-Bration offering. It is now sold out but I know many of you own it already so I thought I'd share the card for you. Or maybe you own some similar patterned paper you could use instead.

The candles are about 3/8" wide and 3" tall. The paper is originally white with gold diagonal dashes. I colored them in with Blends markers in light and dark of each color. The colors are Real Red, Flirty Flamingo, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather.

For the flames I punched out a daisy from the Medium Daisy punch in Gold Glimmer paper. I cut off the petals and adhered them under the top of each candle. Then I popped up each candle with mini dimensionals.

Other Details

The Let's Celebrate You greeting is from Bonanza Buddies set on page 34 of the 2020 January-June mini catalog.
The stitched rectangle is from the Stitched so Sweetly dies
Granny Apple Green

Here's a view of the Stitched So Sweetly bundle; it includes a fabulous stamp set and amazing dies. If you buy it this month you'll earn a free Sale-a-Bration choice! See it here.

You Are Amazing cards with Blending Brush ideas

February 15, 2021

Last week on my Tuesday Live I shared three cards featuring the You Are Amazing stamp set & the new blending brushes. I've always loved sponging and these new brushes are incredible! They are so popular they are currently on back-order; but you can still order them!

This was my favorite and also loved by many others too. I created a few 'star stencils' with the Stitched Stars dies and sponged in the windows.

I added a few Artistry Blooms sequins for extra bling.

And on this card I sponged on the True Love polka dot paper. It was Black & White but is now two-toned!

Welcome cards made with scraps & Field & Flower DSP

February 11, 2021

This week I've been sharing cards made with this beautiful Flower & Field DSP; it's free with any $50 order in February during Sale-a-Bration. See it here.

I created a colorful group of cards for my new Team members last week. I had a bunch of random pieces in the pack of Designer Paper and I decided to challenge myself to use mostly extras & just create!

Look at the fun colors and layouts! I grabbed my bags of scraps and a pile of White CS strips and just played. Have you ever done this?

Save

This Flower & Field DSP (seen here) has so many different color combos in it; all with a Black background. Honestly at first I wasn't sure I liked it. However I love to accent with black; it seems to make a card stand out beautifully. Looking at these cards now I just love i

This Designer Paper is free with any $50 order this month. But it ends February 28th! Plus you never know if they could run out. So don't wait!

Save

If you have a nice size wish list I hope you'll consider purchasing the Stampin' Up! Starter kit. It is such a great deal and no one on my Team has ever regretted it! In fact most say they wish they'd done it sooner!

While I'm very, very grateful for the $100 orders I'm getting I cannot help think that the order could be a Starter Kit purchase! Free shipping and 20% off future orders.

Save

Did you know?

In the Starter kit you get $125 of product of your choice, 5 packs of 6×6 DSP ($57.50), a free past Paper Pumpkin kit ($21) with no shipping on any of this ($20.35).

So instead of $223.85… you pay just $99?! What? Amazing!
