Lovely Lily Pad with Lily Pad dies to match!

February 20, 2020

Waterlilies are so trendy now and these reversible Lovely Lily Pad stamps in the 2020 Sale-a-Bration catalog are beautiful!

I'm sharing more of my Team swaps from our meeting earlier this month. Many of my team choose to join in our monthly swaps. Our swaps are optional and work like this: design one card and make one for everyone in the swap. If there are 12 people in the swap you make 12 of the same cards. Then send or bring them to me and I sort them out and return them to everyone participating. It's so fun to get all different cards back when you only had to create one!

First is Mary's pretty card:

Save

She used the Stitched Rectangle dies on three of her layers here! Her colors are Bermuda Bay, Grapefruit Grove and Old Olive. A little bit of Rococo Rose and Coastal Cabana too. The Lily Impressions designer paper has tons of pretty colors in it.

Roxann made this next card. She also used a Bermuda Bay card base but focused on Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green as her colors.

Save

It truly looks like water is reflecting the flowers on this pretty Lily Impressions designer paper. This paper is a free choice with any $50 order right now. See them here.

Her greeting is from the Sending you Thoughts set; also a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.

Bobby created this pretty card below. It also reminds me of a water garden with lilies in it.

Save

Her colors are Pretty Peacock, Pool Party and Grapefruit Grove. Isn't that border die beautiful? I also like that peek of a vellum lily behind the largest lily. I have a bunch of talented ladies on my Team!

True Love Designer Paper; GORGEOUS!

January 6, 2021

The True Love Designer paper is my very favorite designer paper in the 2021 Spring Catalog; it has gorgeous Black & White patterns. I have always found Black & White paper to be the easiest to work with since I can add almost any color I want to set it off. Bright or soft colors all work wonderfully!

I made this card for another online swap a few weeks ago. I just love the easy layout and how it makes the best use of both the Designer paper AND your card stock.

Save

Products used:

Black, White & Magenta Madness CS, True Love DSP, Black ink, Black glittered ribbon, Sweet Ice Cream stamp set , Treasured Tags pick a punch for White CS strip, Matte Black dots

Since Stampin' Up! had to stop offering their Whisper White card stock (manufacturer went out of business) we now have Basic White products. And they're all available again! Yay! Check out this flyer here. Download BASIC-WHITE-ANNOUNCEMENT-FLYER_US

Paper saving tip:

With this layout you can get sixteen 3" square pieces from a 12" sheet of DSP; or 4 pieces from a 6 X 6" piece.

You can get 5 pieces of the main colored layer from a sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" card stock. The cutting template for this is below; I love to use it for my inside layer especially.

This cute machine has a compact footprint for easy storage and travel. The 3-1/2" (8.9 cm) platform works with many of Stampin' Up!'s smaller dies and embossing folders. Includes 1 Mini Base Plate, 2 Mini Cutting Plates, 1 Mini Embossing Plate, and 1 Mini 3D Embossing Plate

Are you enjoying these sneak peaks from the new 2021 Stampin' Up! Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs? It's always fun to play with brand new products. Today I'm playing with new 2021 Sale-a-Bration (or SAB) items.

The Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper is full of flowers and fun color combos! I decided to use my Stitched Rectangle dies to create this layered effect. If you want to watch a video on how to do this click here.

Save

I used the third smallest and the third largest die in the Stitched Rectangles set. It looks like I wasted a ton of paper but the entire card is made with one piece of DSP measuring 5 1/4" X 4". It's so cool!

Navy layers are:
- Main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- Smallest rectangle is 3 3/8" X 2", middle is 4 1/2" X 3 1/8"
You might wonder what I used for the greeting. The White piece is a new die from the Potted Succulent dies seen here. The Rococo Rose layers are punched pieces; 2 of them. I used a 1" X 3 3/4" strip and the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the ends. The center piece is the Story Label punch. The pearls on the label are the NEW Pastel Pearls on page 19 of the new Spring Catalog seen here.

Save

Thanks for stopping in today; stay tuned for more projects tomorrow!

Free Quick & Easy One Sheet Wonder template for 12″ designer paper

January 4, 2021

When I saw the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper I thought it would work wonderfully with a one sheet wonder. It's amazing and gorgeous paper that you can get FREE during Stampin' Up!'s 2021 Sale-a-Bration promotion. It starts on Tuesday, January 5th so I cannot give you a link to the products quite yet. But I can show you my cards!

Save

Aren't they sweet? All are made with just one sheet of 12 X 12" Berry Delightful paper. I needed just a few additional strips and layers along with greetings. The colors are Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, White & Flirty Flamingo.

Here's the template I created. You can watch the video below to get some tips on making these cards.

Save

I used the Berry Blessings stamp set which is included in the free bundle along with the Sweet Strawberry set & punch bundle from the new Spring catalog.

This stamp set & Designer Paper are free with a $100 purchase during SAB.

Save

Here's the Sweet Strawberry bundle I used. I love that the punch has 4 parts that match the stamps! (You can tell which images coordinate with the punch; they're highlighted.) And notice how the fonts in both of these sets match?!!

Save

After I made the strawberry cards I wanted to try the blueberries sheet so I made these cards with that one.

Save

I'm offering the 10 strawberry cards as a free pre-cut kit to go to anyone who chooses the Berry Delightful bundle from me during Sale-a-Bration; which runs from January 5th – February 28th. However, the supply may be limited in February.

Or if you already own the bundle and want the pre-cut kit you can order it here in my Shop.

**Kits ordered in January will ship out at the end of January and can be combined with my other monthly kits to save on shipping.

Below is the video where I share some tips on using my OSW Template:

Remember; Sale-a-Bration starts tomorrow; Tuesday, January 5th! It's the best time to purchase Stampin' Up! products!
