Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Irresistible blooms bundle is a beautiful new bundle that is in the Online Exclusives section in the Online Store. It has gorgeous florals and beautiful sentiments! It’s so popular that the dies and the beautiful Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper are sold out – but don’t worry because more is on the way! I used both the bundle and the DSP to make a simple, sweet thank you card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge this week:

I cut a panel of Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper with the 3rd largest stitched rectangles die. I adhered the die cut panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat with liquid glue and then adhered the layered panel to the front of a Petal Pink card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the beautiful sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms cling stamp set in Flirty Flamingo ink on Basic White. I cut it out with the curvy rectangle label die from the Painted Labels dies and adhered it to the card with liquid glue.

I used the dies from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible blooms dies to cut two leaf clusters and a large flower from the Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ DSP. I adhered the leaves to the card with liquid glue and adhered the flower with dimensionals. I brushed some Wink of Stella on the flower to add some sparkle and adhered iridescent pearls to the card for shine.

For the inside of the card, I kept it simple, adhering a strip of Hello Irresistible DSP to the side of a Basic White panel and adhering the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal. This leaves plenty of room to write a personal message.

The Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms bundle and Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ DSP will not be listed in any catalog and will be available only in the Online Store as part of the New Online Exclusives collection. These gorgeous products make it so easy to make pretty cards!

Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay Thank You Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay bundle is a beautiful nautical set with both undersea and shore images and dies. I used the crab and shells to make an undersea thank you card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge this week:

I adhered a panel of wood grained By The Sea 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper to the front of a Sahara Sand card base. I cut a panel of By The Sea 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper with the fourth largest Stitched Rectangles dies. I stamped the fishes from the Sea Turtle photopolymer stamp set in Versamark ink o the die cut DSP and sprinkled it with gold embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny.

I stamped the sand and sand and shell stamps from the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay cling stamp set in Sahara Sand ink across a Sahara Sand strip. I cut the top using the sand die from the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay dies and cut the bottom with the fourth largest Stitched Rectangle die. I adhered the die cut sand to the bottom of the DSP die cut rectangle with liquid glue and adhered the layered panel to a Soft Suede mat.

I cut three sea grasses (two short and one long) from the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay dies from Mint Macaron and adhered them to the undersea panel with glue dots. I stamped the three small sea shells in Sahara Sand ink on Petal Pink and cut them out with the coordinating die. I adhered them to the panel with glue dots. I stamped the crab in Night of Navy ink on Basic White and cut it out with the coordinating die. I colored it with a light Pool Party Stampin’ Blend and adhered it to the panel with glue dots. I cut a pair of small shells from Distressed Gold paper and adhered them to the panel with glue dots.

I stamped the sentiment (inking up only the thank you part of the stamp) from the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay stamp set in Versamark ink on Balmy Blue and sprinkled it with gold embossing powder. I shook off the excess powder and heated the sentiment with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I cut it out with the small skinny stitched rectangle die. I looped Linen Thread twice around the end and tied a knot and adhered the label to the panel with dimensionals. I adhered the panel to the card front with dimensionals and finished it with flat pearls.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the crab from the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay stamp set in Night of Navy ink on a Basic White panel. I colored it with the light Pool Party Stampin’ Blend and stamped the bottom with the seashell and sand and sand stamps using Sahara Sand ink. I colored the shells with the dark Petal Pink Stampin’ Blend and adhered the die cut Mint Macaron sea grass and Distress Gold seashells to the bottom. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay bundle goes great with the By the Bay specialty DSP and other ocean themed stamp supplies. And the sentiments are wonderful!

Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy Thank You Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy photopolymer stamp set is a pretty two step floral stamp set with lovely sentiments and it’s one of the items that you can choose for free with a $100 order (before shipping and handling) during Sale-A-Bration. For today’s card, I wanted to make a garden of these pretty flowers, so I used the masking technique to stamp multiple images. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped the large flower from the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy stamp set on a panel of printer paper and fussy cut it with my paper snips to make a mask. I stamped the flower in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on the left side of a Basic White panel. I covered it with the mask and stamped the image again on the left side a little lower than the first image. When stamping the flowers, the stamp extends beyond the panel, and I wanted to center the flowers in a pleasing manner on the panel.

I used the filler stamps from the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy stamp set to color the flowers and leaves by stamping. I used Sweet Sorbet ink for the flowers stamp and Granny Apple Green ink for the leaves stamp. I used the mask to cover the first flower each time I stamped the color on the second flower. I stamped the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black in the corner of the panel and adhered the panel to a Pale Papaya mat. I stamped the flower twice in Memento Tuxedo Black on a second panel of Basic White and stamped the detailed Flowers in Sweet Sorbet. I colored the centers with the dark Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blend and fussy cut the flowers with my paper snips. I popped the flowers on the panel with dimensionals.

I adhered a panel of Lovely Linen designer series paper to a Pale Papaya mat with liquid glue and adhered the floral panel on top with dimensionals. I adhered the layered panel to the front of a Sweet Sorbet card base with dimensionals and made a bow with the black gingham ribbon and adhered it to the card with a glue dot. I adhered a dragonfly trinket with a glue dot and finished the card with gold adhesive sequins.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the flower from the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the filler flower in Sweet Sorbet and the leaves in Granny Apple Green. I colored the center with the dark Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blend and adhered a strip of Lovely Linen DSP to the bottom. I adhered the panel to a Pale Papaya mat and adhered it to the inside of the card with liquid glue.

The Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy stamp set is perfect for using the two step stamping technique and it can also be colored with any of your favorite coloring techniques. Be sure to check out this pretty and fun Sale-A-Bration stamp set!

Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy Thank You Card

Good Morning and Happy February! I wanted to make a vintage style card with the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy Sale-A-Bration photopolymer stamp set and so I looked at cards from 10 to 15 years ago. Boy, was that fun seeing all the old favorite stamp sets and designer series papers! I decided to make it with layers of Regency Park 6″ x 6″ designer series paper and use a sponge dauber to distress the edges. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I used a sponge dauber to apply Crumb Cake ink around the edges of my panels of Regency Park 6″ x 6″ DSP. I picked a floral Petal Pink pattern for the front background and inside trim and a Petal Pink polka dot pattern for the vertical strip. I embossed the front background and inside trim papers with the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder and adhered the background panel to the front of a Soft Suede card base with liquid glue. I adhered the vertical strip to a Soft Suede mat and adhered it to the card front with liquid glue.

I stamped the large floral bouquet from the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy stamp set in Early Espresso ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the flowers in Petal Pink and the leaves in stamped off Mint Macaron. I stamped the spatter stamp around the flowers using stamped off Crumb Cake. I then used my sponge dauber to apply Crumb Cake ink around the bouquet. I adhered the panel to Soft Suede and Petal Pink mats and wrapped it twice with Crumb Cake baker’s twine and tied a bow. I colored the flowers with Wink of Stella to give them some sparkle.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy stamp set in Early Espresso in Petal Pink and adhered it to a Soft Suede mat. I adhered the label over the baker’s twine with dimensionals and adhered the layered floral panel to the card front with dimensionals. I finished the card with iridescent gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the little flower from the Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy stamp set in Crumb Cake ink in the lower corner of a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with the Regency Park 6″ x 6″ distressed and embossed DSP strip and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy Sale-A-Bration stamp set is a gorgeous two-step stamp set with pretty flowers and wonderful sentiments. It is one of the items that you can get for free with a $100 order (before shipping and taxes). It was fun to make a vintage style card and I didn’t use a single die!

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers Thank You Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle is a pretty floral bundle with bold sentiments. The Sale-A-Bration Favored Flowers designer series paper coordinates perfectly with the bundle and some of the designs can even be cut out with the dies. I used them both for my card today, but instead of the beautiful bold sentiments, I used the Simply Succulent stamp set and coordinating Potted Succulent dies for my sentiments. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped the big floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the flowers with Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends and the leaves with Old Olive Stampin’ Blends and cut it out with the coordinating die. The coloring process was a little tedious, but I love the way it came out – it coordinates beautifully with the flowers in the DSP. I just took my time coloring it one petal at a time focusing on coloring the flower’s detail lines.

I adhered a panel of geometric Favored Flowers designer series paper to a Basic Black mat and then adhered it to a floral DSP panel with liquid glue. I adhered it all to a Basic Black mat and then adhered it to the front of a Petal Pink card base with liquid glue. I cut two large and one small leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers dies from Mossy Meadow and adhered them to the card with dots of liquid glue. I popped the stamped and die cut flowers on top with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Succulents cling stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black on Mossy Meadow and cut it out with the label die from the Potted Succulents dies (these label dies are so pretty!). I folded a length of Petal Pink ribbon and adhered it to the card front with glue dots and adhered the label on top with glue dots and dimensionals. I finished the card front with pastel iridescent gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the large flower from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set in Petal Pink in the corners of a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Succulents stamp set (Isn’t this the best sentiment?) in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and trimmed the bottom with a strip of Favored Flowers DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set comes in both cling and photopolymer versions, so you can choose the version that you prefer (you can also get either version with the bundle). The Simply Succulents sentiments aren’t as bold as the ones in the new bundle, but I love these sentiments and they fit better on this card design without covering the pretty flowers too much. And for today I even took the time to make a decorated envelope by stamping the flower in Petal Pink and adhering a strip of DSP to the back flap. The pink and black is so pretty and so dramatic and you can choose it as a free item with a $50 order (before shipping and taxes) during Sale-A-Bration.

Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight Thank You Card

Good Morning! Today I have another sneak peek of the pretty Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight bundle from the upcoming January-April 2023 Mini Catalog that will be available tomorrow. I also used Sale-A-Bration Dainty Flowers designer series paper that will also be available tomorrow when Sale-A-Bration starts! I made a Thank You card and you can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I embossed a panel of Dainty Flowers designer series paper with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the front of an Orchid Oasis card base with liquid glue. I adhered a floral strip of Dainty Flowers DSP to a Mossy Meadow mat and adhered it to the card front with liquid glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight cling stamp set using Orchid Oasis ink on an Orchid Oasis panel and cut it out with the large label die from the Fragrant Flowers dies (also available Jan 5). I adhered it to the card front with glue dots.

I used my Old Olive watercolor pencil to color an area of a Basic White panel and cut a pair of leaves and stem from the Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight dies. I colored another area with Gorgeous Grape and Rich Razzleberry watercolor pencils and cut it with the fluffy flower top die. I adhered the flower top and leaves to the stem with glue dots and adhered it to the label with glue dots. I finished the card front with 2022-2024 In Color dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped one of the small flower clusters from the Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped another flower in Mossy Meadow next to the first and at the top corner. I colored the flowers with watercolor pencils – Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, Early Espresso, Gorgeous Grape and Rick Razzleberry. I embossed a strip of Dainty Flowers DSP with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing folder and adhered it to the bottom and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

It’s always fun to use a new coloring technique. I was happy to pull out my watercolor pencils for today’s card and I’m happy with the results. The subtle shading differences work well with the images in the DSP.

Here’s a picture of the pretty Dainty Delight bundle:

Here are the pretty papers in the Dainty Flowers Sale-A-Bration designer series paper pack:

All these pretty items will be available tomorrow when the new January – April Mini Catalog is open for orders and Sale-A-Bration begins!

Saying Thanks Kit – New Kits Collection Kit

A new kit is being added to the Kits Collection tomorrow – Saying Thanks! This kit will make 9 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ Thank You cards – three each of three designs and comes with coordinating envelopes. This kit has printed die cut words, precut pieces, white baker’s twine, iridescent diamond sequins and adhesives. This is a no stamping kit, so it’s perfect for beginner card makers. Here are the kit contents:

This is another new goodie that will be available tomorrow. The item number is 162361 and the price is $13.

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers Sneak Peek II

Happy New Year! Today I have another sneak peek of the pretty Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle with the Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration designer series paper. Today I have a simple masculine thank you card! The January – April 2023 Mini Catalog will be available later this week on Thursday January 5th and Sale-A-Bration will start on the same day, too! You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a panel of Favored Flowers designer series paper to an Evening Evergreen mat and adhered it to the front of an Old Olive card base with liquid glue.

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set in Evening Evergreen ink on Old Olive card stock. I stamped it 4 times and there were still a few splotches (I think I need to re-ink my ink pad), so I used my Evening Evergreen Stampin’ Write marker to dab some ink in a few of the lighter areas. I cut the sentiment out with the large label die in the bundle and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I finished the card with two bronze brushed metallic dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the geometric design from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set using Evening Evergreen ink in the corner of a Basic White panel and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal. I love how this little design picks up on so many of the designs in the Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration DSP!

This is such a simple masculine card, and the bold sentiment and label die from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle are perfect!

Here is the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle with the Favored Flowers designer series paper pack:

Both of these items will be available on January 5th when ordering begins for the new January-April 2023 Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration!

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers Sneak Peek

Good Morning! It’s less than a week until the new Stampin’ Up! January – April 2023 Mini Catalog is open for ordering! Yay!! On the same day, Sale-A-Bration 2023 will begin! Double Yay!! And today I have a sneak peek of the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle from the upcoming catalog along with the Sale-A-Bration Favored Flowers designer series paper that coordinates with the bundle. You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a strip of Petal Pink geometric Favored Flowers designer series paper to an Evening Evergreen panel with liquid glue. I adhered a panel of floral DSP next to it and wrapped it with Basic Black baker’s twine, making a bow. I adhered the layered DSP to the front of a Petal Pink card base with dimensionals.

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers cling stamp set in Evening Evergreen ink on a Petal Pink panel. I stamped it 4 times, but since colored card stock is not as smooth as Basic White, I still had some splotchy spots. Since I wanted a smoother look, I used my Evening Evergreen Stampin’ Write marker to dab more color on some of the lighter spots. I cut it out with the big label die from the bundle and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I finished the card with 3 Petal Pink Elegant gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the small flower from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set using Petal Pink ink on a Basic White panel and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love this bold sentiment and label die from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle, and it goes wonderfully with the bold floral and graphic designs in the Sale-A-Bration Favored Flowers designer series paper. The DSP pack is one of the items that you will be able to get for free with a purchase of $50 during Sale-A-Bration. Here are the pretty papers in the pack along with the Fragrant Flowers bundle:

Both of these items will be available on January 5, 2023 and I can’t wait!!

Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay Sneak Peek

Good Morning! Today I have another sneak peek of the pretty Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay bundle from the upcoming January-April 2023 Mini Catalog that will be available on January 5, 2023. I made a thank you card featuring the sea birds in the bundle and more of the pretty By The Bay 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper. You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a panel of By The Bay 6″ x 6″ specialty Designer series paper to the front of a Night of Navy card base with liquid glue. I cut another panel of the DSP with the largest square in the Stylish Shapes dies and adhered it to a Crumb Cake mat. I folded a short length of Natural ribbon and adhered it together with glue dots before adhering it to the card front with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered die cut square over the ribbon with dimensionals.

I used the large seagrass die from the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay dies to cut a Mint Macaron panel and adhered it to the card with glue dots. I stamped the large bird in Soft Suede ink on a Basic White panel and cut it out with the coordinating die. I colored parts of the bird with the light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blend and adhered it to the card front with glue dots. I stamped the little bird in Soft Suede on Basic White and cut it out with the coordinating die and adhered it with a glue dot.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay stamp set in Night of Navy on Crumb Cake card stock. I cut it out with the Stylish Shapes banner die using the two step method and adhered it to the card with glue dots. I finished the card with Faceted solid jewels.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the seashells from the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay stamp set in Soft Suede ink on the bottom of a Basic White panel. I stamped the little bird next to the shells and stamped the sand around it all. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love that so many of the images in the Stampin’ Up! Seaside Bay bundle have coordinating dies. And I love that you have images for birds and shells, so you have lots of flexibility in designing shore themed projects – perfect for warming up cold Winter days!

Here is the pretty Seaside Bay bundle (I can feel the sand between my toes!):

Here are the pretty papers in the By the Bay 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper pack:

Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The upcoming January-April Mini Catalog has so many pretty new bundles and one of my favorites is the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora bundle. It is part of the Fancy Flora Suite that is pictured on the front of the catalog. I used many products in this suite for today’s card and they will all be available on January 5, 2023 when the catalog goes live. You can find the currently available supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge this week and here is the pretty card sketch we are using this week:

I cut a panel of ombre Orchid Oasis Fancy Flora 6″ x 6″ designer series paper with the large background die from the Stampin’ Up Two-Tone Flora dies and adhered it to another panel of Fancy Flora DSP with dots of liquid glue. A few pieces are separated from the main panel and need to be adhered individually. I adhered the panel to the front of a Pool Party card base.

I stamped the leaf spray from the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora photopolymer stamp set in Soft Succulent ink on Basic White and cut it out with the coordinating die. I adhered it to the card front with glue dots and made a loopy bow with Starry Sky metallic ribbon and adhered it on the leaf spray.

I stamped the sentiment from the Something Fancy cling stamp set in Orchid Oasis ink on Petal Pink card stock. I cut it out with the pretty label die from the Something Fancy dies and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I finished the card with three Calypso Coral iridescent jewels.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora stamp set in Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen in the corners of a Basic White panel and trimmed the bottom with a strip of Fancy Flora 6″ x 6″ DSP. I stamped the medium flower detail stamp in Orchid Oasis and stamped the solid flower over it in stamped off Orchid Oasis. I stamped the details of the small flower in Calypso Coral and the background in Petal Pink. I cut the flowers out with the coordinating dies and adhered them to the corners of the panel. I trimmed the flowers and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Fancy Flora Suite is beautiful and I really love the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora bundle! The two-step stamping flowers are fun to make and easy to do and they come out beautiful! I love that they all have coordinating dies and the beautiful floral background die is really gorgeus!
