Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I pulled out the sweet One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper again to use with the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made bundle for a simple friendship card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a pretty sketch challenge this week and I used the torn edge dies from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made bundle to change it up a bit:

I used liquid glue to adhere a strip of patterned One Horse Open Sleigh designer series paper to the right side of the front of a Crumb Cake card base.

I cut the right side of a Copper Clay panel with the torn edge die from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made dies and adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP (the one with the sweet fox) to the front with liquid glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made cling stamp set in Copper Clay ink and cut it out with the jagged edge label die. I adhered a loopy Linen Thread bow to the back of the label with a glue dot and adhered the label to the card front with dimensionals. I finished the card with Copper Clay dots.

For the inside of the card, I trimmed the side of a Basic White panel with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love the images in the One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series pack and they work just as well for a Christmas card as as any occasion.

Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures Gratitude Card

Good Morning! I used the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures bundle for a thank you card today and featured the beautiful Earthen Elegance designer series paper for my vase. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I embossed a Crumb Cake panel with the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Crumb Cake card base. I adhered a panel of Earthen Textures designer series paper to a Copper Clay mat and adhered it to the card. I made a fishtail banner from a Pretty Peacock strip of the DSP and adhered it to the card front with liquid glue. I cut the ‘X’ motif die from the Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures dies from Pebbled Path card stock and adhered it to the card.

I stamped the wheat from the Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures stamp set in Wild Wheat ink on Basic White and cut it out with the coordinating die. I cut the palm branch die from Old Olive and two of the stick bundle dies from Copper Clay. I cut the medium vase from a panel of Earthen Elegance DSP – I love how this looks like a real pottery vase! I adhered a stick bundle, the wheat and the palm branch to the card with liquid glue and popped the vase over it with dimensionals.

I adhered the second bundle of sticks over the bottom of the vase with liquid glue and skinny cut up dimensionals. I adhered a length of Natural Wavy trim with glue dots and stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink on a strip of Earthen Elegance DSP. I trimmed the label with my paper snips and adhered it to the card with liquid glue. I finished the card with Copper Clay In Color dots to add some shine.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the wheat from the Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures stamp set in Wild Wheat ink on the sides of a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink and trimmed the bottom with a strip of Earthen Elegance DSP. I adhered the panel to a Copper Clay mat and adhered the layered panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love the Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures bundle! You can make so many natural arrangements that are full of rich texture! And it gets even better when combined with the Earthen Elegance DSP.

Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made Hello Card

Good Morning! I was playing with the beautiful Countryside Inn designer series paper and it struck me that I should use it with my new Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made bundle! You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered adhered a panel of Countryside Inn designer series paper to the front of a Misty Moonlight card base with liquid glue. I cut both sides of a strip of Countryside Inn DSP with the jagged edge die from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made dies and adhered the strip to the card front with liquid glue.

I stamped the branch from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made cling stamp set in Boho Blue ink on a Basic White panel. I used a blending Brush to apply some Boho Blue ink to the panel and stamped the faded newsprint in Gray Granite. I cut the top with the spiral notebook die. I also cut the top of a Countryside Inn panel with the die and adhered the DSP to the stamped panel. I cut a Boho Blue card stock panel with the leaf die and adhered the die cut leaf to the layered panel before popping it on the card front with dimensionals.

I made a bow with a single strand of Boho Blue jute and adhered it to the card with a glue dot. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made stamp set inn Misty Moonlight ink on a Basic White strip and cut it out with the jagged label die. I adhered the label to the card with dimensionals and finished the card front with Misty Moonlight tinsel gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the branch from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made cling stamp set in Boho Blue ink on the sides of a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of Countryside Inn DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Gorgeously Made bundle is beautiful and I’m happy to see that it is just as beautiful with a different designer series paper in a different color palette.

Stampin’ Up! Inked and Tiled Congratulations for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I used the pretty Stampin’ Up! Inked and Tiled bundle for a congratulations card today, and I used both the beautiful stamp set and both punches! You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a color challenge for our Blog Hop this week – perfect with the Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ designer series paper:

I stamped the large leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Inked and Tiled cling stamp set using stamped off Lost Lagoon ink randomly on a plaid panel of Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ designer series paper. I adhered a panel of Crushed Curry Inked Botanicals DSP across the front with liquid glue and adhered the layered pannel to the front of a Lost Lagoon card base.

I embossed a Pool Party panel with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder and adhered it to a Calypso Coral mat. I used the punches from the Stampin’ Up! Inked and Tiled bundle to punch 6 shapes from different designs in the Inked Botanicals DSP. I arranged them on the embossed panel and adhered the ‘x’ punched shapes with liquid glue. I adhered the star punched shapes with dimensionals to the embossed panel.

I popped the embossed panel onto the card front with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Inked and Tiled stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink on a Daffodil Delight strip. I punched the ends with the ‘x’ punch and adhered a folded length of Pool Party ribbon to the back with glue dots. I adhered the label to the card front with dimensionals and finished with iridescent pastel gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the small flower from the Stampin’ Up! Inked and Tiled stamp set using stamped off Calypso Coral ink randomly around the edges of a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of Inked Botanicals DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love how the punches in the Stampin’ Up! Inked and Tiled bundle fit together – it’s like a quilt pattern. What a great way to show off the different designs in pretty designer series paper!

Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh Christmas Card

Good Morning! The beautiful One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper is perfect for making quick Christmas cards. There are so many pretty images that you can easily cut to size and mount on a card base. Add some embellishments and sentiments and you’re done. I used another image from the paper pack with the wonderful sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set to make today’s quick Christmas card. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to a real Red mat with liquid glue and popped it on the front of a Misty Moonlight card base with dimensionals.

I stamped another panel of the DSP with the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh photopolymer stamp set using Versamark ink. I sprinkled it with white embossing powder and shook off the excess. I heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I used one of the Deckled Rectangle dies to cut it out, cutting the top and left sides first and then cutting the bottom and right. It’s so easy to use a two step die cutting technique with these dies because you don’t have to match anything!

I adhered the die cut label to an Early Espresso mat with liquid glue. I looped some silver trim on the card, adhering it with glue dots and popped the label over the top with dimensionals. I adhered white adhesive snowflakes around the scene and filled the center with small rhinestones for extra sparkle. I finished the label with another rhinestone.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the tree from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set in stamped off Crumb Cake ink on Basic White and the sentiment in Real Red. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The touches of green and Real Red in the label and mat really bring in the holiday spirit with this panel of DSP! I love the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set as they are perfect for sending a quick handmade Christmas greeting! These stamps and the DSP are part of the latest drop of new Online Exclusives from Stampin’ Up!

Stampin’ Up! July Paper Pumpkin Kit – Fun in the Sun!

Good Morning! Have you seen the Stampin’ Up! July Paper Pumpkin kit cards? These are so cute and so much fun! They’re side step fun fold cards with a wonderful summer theme reflecting the best times at the beach. I put together one of each card – and they came together rather quickly! Here they are:

Here’s the July 2023 Paper Pumpkin kit unboxing video from the Paper Pumpkin YouTube channel showing the kit contents and steps for making each card. The card bases come pre cut and scored, but do take your time folding the first few, it can seem a bit tricky at first.

Here’s a closeup of each card. The first is a gorgeous, peaceful sunset – I think I need a pina colada to go with this one.

I love the beach chair die cut with the umbrella and toys. Perfect for summer fun!

Here’s the last one with colorful surf boards and the cute crap is actually holding the sentiment banner!

Here’s a closeup of the stamp set and Daffoddil Delight ink spot:

Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I used the Online Exclusives Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh photopolymer stamp set with the beautiful One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to make a simple Christmas card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a theme challenge for our Blog Hop this week:

I adhered a Real Red panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to an Early Espresso mat. I cut another panel of the DSP featuring the sweet little deer and adhered it to an Early Espresso mat before adhering it to the Real Red panel. I adhred the layered panel to the front of a Gray Granite card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set in Real Red ink on Basic White. I trimmed the ends of strips of One horse Open Sleigh DSP and gold More Dazzle specialty paper with my paper snips and adhered them to the back of the label with liquid glue.

I adhered a length of gold Simply Elegant trim to the card front with Stampin’ Seal to and ad the label on top with dimensionals. I finished the card front with gold snowflakes.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set in Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. I trimmed the side with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP and More Dazzle specialty paper and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The simple Christmas sentiments in the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set are perfect for pairing inside and outside sentiments on Holiday cards. And the pretty One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper has so many pretty winter landscape images, making it perfect for a quick Christmas card.

Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched Friendship Card with Video Tutorial

Good Morning! Here is a monotone friendship card in yellow and gold using the pretty Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched cling stamp set. I’ve paired the cotton ball image with some Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ designer series paper and Crushed Curry and Wild Wheat card stock to get a natural look. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I made a video tutorial for this card and posted it to my YouTube Channel and you can view it HERE.

Adhere a panel of Crushed Curry Inked Botanicals DSP to the front of a Wild Wheat card base with liquid glue. Stamp the cotton ball image from the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set in Wild Wheat ink on a Wild Wheat panel. After the ink dries, color the cotton balls with a white watercolor pencil. This gives the cotton a soft highlight! Adhere the stamped panel to a Crushed Curry mat with liquid glue.

Wrap a length of Wild Wheat jute around the panel and tie a knot. Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set in Wild Wheat ink on a Crushed Curry strip. Use paper snips to make a fishtail banner on one end. Adhere the label to the stamped panel with glue dots.

Cut a panel of leafy vellum with the leaf sprig die from the Gorgeously Made dies and adhere it to the card front with glue dots. Adhere the die cut to the card front with glue dots. Adhere the stamped panel to the card front with dimensionals.

For the inside of the card, stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set in Wild Wheat ink in the corner of a Basic White panel. Trim the bottom with a strip of Inked Botanicals DSP and adhere the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The pretty images from the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set are perfect for stamping on card stock and coloring with watercolor pencils. The result is softer than coloring with markers and it’s pretty easy to do. I hope you like the colors – I don’t think that they’re for everyone, but I do like the way the card came out. Experimenting with different colors is a big part of the fun!

Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Hello Card

Good Morning! Here is a simple hello card made with the pretty Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves photopolymer stamp set with the Glorious Gingham designer series paper. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a Berry Burst panel of Glorious Gingham 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the front of a Berry Burst card base. I used the second largest circle from the Stylish Shapes dies to cut a leafy panel of Vellum Basics paper and adhered it to the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I stamped two leaf sprigs from the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves stamp set in Garden Green ink on Basic White and punched them out with the coordinating Bough Punch. I stamped three flower sprigs in Berry Burst ink on Basic White and punched them out. I adhered the leaves and flowers to the card front with dots of liquid glue. I adhered a loopy Sweet Sorbet metallic ribbon bow with a glue dot to the bottom of the sprigs.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves stamp set in Versamark ink on Berry Burst card stock. I sprinkled it with white embossing powder and shook off the excess. Ii heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny and cut it out with the label die from the Cheerful Daisies die. I adhered it to the card with dimensionals and finished the card with Berry Burst tinsel gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves in Berry Burst ink on Basic White. I covered it with a punched mask and stamped the leaves in Garden Green ink on top. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of Glorious Gingham DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Glorious Gingham 6″ x 6″ designer series paper has fresh gingham designs that are pretty for simple backgrounds. And they’re a perfect backdrop for the beautiful sentiments and flowers in the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves stamp set!
