Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora Hugs Card

Good Morning! I’ve used the pretty Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora bundle with the Regal Winter designer series paper for a simple hugs card You can find the currently available supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

I cut a Petal Pink card stock panel with the large postage die from the Perennial Postage dies and adhered a panel of Regal Winter DSP to the center. I was pleased at how well the the Petal Pink coordinates with the DSP! I popped the layered die cut on the front of a Blackberry Bliss card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora stamp set using Blackberry Bliss ink on a Very Vanilla panel and cut it out with the pretty label die. I adhered the outer outline die to the card with dots of liquid glue and popped the center on using dimensionals, lining up the bottom right corners.

I made a Blackberry Bliss bow and adhered it to the top right and finished with three Blackberry Bliss foil gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sprig from the Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora stamp set using Bubble Bath ink in the corner of a Very Vanilla panel. I used my Blue and Fresh Freesia colored pencils to outline and accent the leaves and dotted the berries on the twigs with the Real Red colored pencil. This tied the sprig colors nicely to the DSP! I trimmed the side with DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora bundle is really pretty and the Regal Winter DSP is too. It’s a perfect set for making cards for different occasions during the cold winter months. These products are on the Last Chance list, and are only available while supplies last.

Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations with Adventurous Sky Masculine Birthday Card

Good Morning! I’ve been having fun playing with the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations bundle and I wanted to make a masculine birthday cake card. So I teamed this bundle up with the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky stamp set and dies and a pretty plaid designer series paper from the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog that will be available on January 7, 2025. You can find the currently available supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

I adhered a panel of Timeless Plaid 6″ x 6″ designer series paper (available January 7, 2025) to a Night of Navy mat with liquid glue and adhered them both to the front of a Crumb Cake card base. On a Basic Beige panel, I stamped the metal plate from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky stamp set several times using stamped off Basic Beige ink to give the panel some texture. I adhered the panel to a Night of Navy mat and popped it on the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped the large shadow from the Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations stamp twice using stamped off Balmy Blue ink on Balmy Blue card stock and cut it out with the large cake die. I cut the triple frosting die from Basic Beige and adhered it to the cake. I was surprised and pleased at how the one cake die cut could make a triple layer cake! I also cut out the cake stand pieces and adhered them to the bottom of the cake. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky stamp set using Night of Navy ink on Old Olive and cut it out with the Unbounded Love die. I adhered the die to the card with glue dots and popped the cake on with dimensionals.

I stamped the little airplane from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Air stamp set using Old Olive ink on Basic Beige. I colored it with the SU007 Stampin’ Blend (from the Medium Light Stampin’ Blend markers), light Smoky Slate and light Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends and cut it out with the coordinating die. I adhered it to the card with glue dots. I hope this looks like an airplane topped birthday cake. Should I have added candles? Or the banner?

For the inside of the card, I stamped the airplane from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky stamp set using Old Olive ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment using Night of Navy ink and trimmed the bottom with DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations bundle is so versatile – there are so many options to make the cake, with the different sizes, frosting styles and accessories using stamps and dies. It was fun to personalize the cake top with the little plane from the Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Sky bundle. And don’t forget the pretty plaid designer series paper coming in the new January-April 2025 Mini Catalog, January 7, 2025.

Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis Christmas Card

Good Morning! It’s late, but I finally made a Christmas card with the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis bundle. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

I adhered a Real Red panel of Take A Bow 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Basic White mat and then to a Garden Green Take A Bow panel. I adhered the layered DSP to the front of a Thick Basic White card base. I used the Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis dies to cut the flowers, stems and centers from Real Red, Garden Green and Basic Beige card stock.

Each flower in the Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis dies are made with two die cuts. I used a sponge dauber to apply Real Red ink to the flower centers and and bottoms before adhering the petal clusters together with liquid glue. I adhered the centers with liquid glue and used liquid glue to adhere the leaves and little thingy to the stem. I adhered the stem and leaves to the card with glue dots and adhered the buds to the top of the stem with glue dots. I popped the two large flowers on the stems with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiments from the Greetings of the Season stamp set using Real Red ink on Basic White. I cut the sentiments out with the long label die from the Autumn Leaves dies and adhered the label to the card with dimensionals. I finished the large flower centers with clear dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set using Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with DSP and adhered the panel to a Garden Green mat before adhering it to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis dies make beautiful amaryllis flowers! I love these flowers during Christmastime – they’re so big and beautiful and brighten up the room! It’s late, but I’m glad I finally used them for a Christmas card. They’re on the Last Chance list, so get them before they’re gone.

Stampin’ Up! Iconic Imagery Peace Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Sentimental Christmas designer series paper pack is full of pretty, nostalgic Christmas images and I paired it with sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Iconic Imagery card for a holiday card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a color challenge this week that fits the Sentimental Christmas DSP pretty well:

I adhered a panel of striped Sentimental Christmas designer series paper to the front of a Pretty Peacock card base with liquid glue and then adhered another tree filled panel on top. I cut a panel with a sweet fawn with a Stylish Shapes circle die and adhered it to a Poppy Parade mat cut with a Spotlight On Nature die. I adhered the layered circle to the card with dimensionals.

I used the Winterly Treetops pine sprigs dies to cut Old Olive and adhered them together. I used the Stampin’ Up! Iconic Imagery berry dies to cut Poppy Parade card stock and adhered the berries to the pine sprigs. I cut a Shaded Spruce panel with the leafy sprig from the Sentimental Wishes dies and adhered the die cut greenery to the bottom of the circle on the card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Iconic Imagery stamp set using Poppy Parade ink on Basic Beige and cut it out with the coordinating small label die. I folded a short length of Shaded Spruce ribbon and adhered it to the back of the label and adhered the label to the card with dimensionals.

For the inside panel, I stamped sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Iconic Imagery stamp set using Poppy Parade ink on Basic White. I fussy cut some birds and greenery and adhered them to the top corner and trimmed the side with DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The sentiments images from the Stampin’ Up! Iconic Imagery bundle coordinate nicely with lots of different styles. It’s nice to be able to combine elements from different stamps and dies for your projects.

Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations for the Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

Good Morning! Welcome to the December Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop! The theme for this month’s hop is “Celebrate” and I used the pretty Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations bundle from the latest Online Exclusives release to make an Anniversary card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

This is a fun fold card that is wonderful for showing both sides of pretty designer series paper since it uses a folded piece of DSP for the ‘card base’. I folded and burnished a panel of Regal Winter designer series paper and adhered it to a gold foil mat and then to a Real Red card base.

For the card front, I embossed a Basic White panel with the Distressed tile embossing folder and cut a Gold Foil panel with the die from the Perennial Postage dies. I adhered the embossed panel to the die cut foil and adhered it to the short front flap of DSP. I also cut the cake stand from the Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations dies from Gold foil and adhered it together.

I cut the two pieces of cake from Basic White using the Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations dies and I cut the frosting from white glimmer paper. I adhered the frosting to the cake and adhered the two cake layers and cake stand together using thin lines of liquid glue. I adhered the cake to the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped several flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations stamp set using Real Red ink and leaves using Shaded Spruce ink. I cut them out with the coordinating dies and adhered them to the cake with glue dots. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations stamp set using versamark ink on Shaded Spruce and sprinkled it with white embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny and then fussy cut it with my paper snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card with pieces of dimensionals and finished with clear sparkle gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations stamp set in Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a die cut leaf sprig and flower in the corner and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Cake Celebrations cakes are beautiful, whether die cut or stamped. And the little flowers and leaf sprigs are perfectly sized for decorating the cake. It’s a wonderful bundle for making yummy cake cards.

Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstools Sneak Peek

Good Morning! The new January – April 2025 Mini Catalog is coming out on January 7, 2025 and I’ve got a sneak peek of a bun new bundle – the Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstools bundle. Sale-A-Bration will also start on January 7, and there’s a 6″ x 6″ designer series paper pack called Toadstool Gardens that coordinates with the new bundle. I’ve used both of them for today’s sneak peek card. You can find the currently avaliable supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

I adhered a strip of Toadstool Gardens 6″ x 6″ DSP to the side of a sweet garden background panel of the DSP with liquid glue and adhered them both to the front of a Pumpkin Pie card base. On a Basic White panel, I stamped the ground from the Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstools stamp set using Granny Apple Green ink. I used a Blending Brush to apply Pool Party ink to the sky.

I stamped the little mushrooms to the panel using Smoky Slate, Basic Beige, Peach Pie and Fresh Freesia inks and cut it out using a circle die from the Stylish Shapes dies. I stamped the large mushroom cap using Real Red ink on Basic Beige and punched it out using the Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstools punch. I punched the stem from Basic Beige and adhered them together with liquid glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstools stamp set using Melon Mambo ink on Basic White and cut it out with a die from the Unbounded Love dies. I popped the die cut circle on the card with dimensionals and adhered the label with dimensionals and a glue dot. I adhered the large mushroom with dimensionals and finished the card with shiny sequins.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstools stamp set using Garden Green ink. I trimmed the bottom of the panel with DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Here is the Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstools bundle with all the fun mushroom stamps and cute sentiments. Note that the punch cuts inside the stamped images, so that you won’t have white borders.

Isn’t it such a whimsical, fun set? The Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstools bundle will be available next month when the January-April 2025 catalog goes live. It will be perfect for crafting fun on cold January Winter days!

Stampin’ Up! Delightful Wishes Sneak Peek

Good Morning! One of the pretty new bundles in the new January-April 2025 Stampin’ Up! Mini Catalog is the Stampin’ Up! Delightful Wishes bundle and it’s part of the Floral Delight Suite. Here’s a sneak peek of a Love card made with this gorgeous bundle. You can find the currently available supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

I embossed a Pool Party panel with the Eyelet 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Pool Party card base with liquid glue. I adhered a panel of Floral Delight designer series paper (available January 7, 2025) to the card with liquid glue.

I stamped the stem from the Stampin’ Up! Delightful Wishes stamp set (available January 7, 2025) using Pecan Pie ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaves using Old Olive ink, lining them up with the stem. On a separate Basic White panel, I stamped the flowers using Daffodil Delight ink. I stamped the detailed flowers using full strength ink and I used the background flowers stamp to stamp Daffodil Delight ink after stamping off on scrap paper. I cut the flowers out with the coordinating die and adhered them to the floral panel with dimensionals.

I stamped the triple dots stamp using Pool Party ink and adhered the decorated panel to the card with liquid glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Delightful Wishes stamp set using Pecan Pie ink on Daffodil Delight card stock. I cut the sentiment out with the label die using a two step method and made a linen thread bow. I adhered the bow to the back of the label and adhered the label to the card with dimensionals. I finished the card with three Summer Splash shimmer gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the stem, leaves and flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Delicate Wishes stamp set using Pecan Pie, Old Olive and Daffodil Delight inks just like the card front. Only this time, I stamped the flowers on the same panel as the leaves and stems. I love how it’s the same, but the flowers are not popped up with dimensionals. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Here is the pretty Delightful Wishes bundle that will be available on January 7, 2025.

And here is the pretty Floral Delight designer series paper. I just love the variety of flowers!

The Stampin’ Up! Delightful Wishes bundle has beautiful two step stamping flowers and leaves with wonderful sentiments, like I used on today’s card. And there are die cut flowers, leaves and branches that you can layer for a completely different look. Plus, it has dies to make the word ‘wishing‘ that you can combine with the other sentiments for a truly versatile cardmaking experience. And it will all be available on January 7, 2025 when the new Jan-Apr 2025 Mini Catalog is open.

Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! One of the prettiest sets of designer series papers in the retiring Mini Catalog is the Regal Winter designer series paper and it goes beautifully with the Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora bundle. I used the pretty stamp set with the DSP to make a sending love card for today. 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:

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora stamp set using Versamark ink on the bottom front of a Shaded Spruce card base. 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 cut a panel of Regal Winter designer series paper into thirds and adhered the strips to a Basic Black mat with liquid glue. I wrapped the panel with a length of Shaded Spruce ribbon and tied a knot before adhering the panel to the card with dimensionals.

I finished the card front with faceted iridescent gems.

For the inside panel, I stamped leaf cluster from the Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora stamp set using Shaded Spruce ink on the corner of a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Regal Flora bundle and Regal Winter designer series paper are on the Last Chance products list and the DSP and the dies are currently discounted. So now is a great time to get these beautiful products before they’re sold out.

On with the Hop! Click on the Next Blog button to move forward to see the beautiful project Karen Ksenzakovic has created.

Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive with Greetings of the Season Christmas Card and Tags

Good Morning! Here’s a late post with a card and some pretty tags made with the Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive specialty designer series paper and the Greetings of the Season bundle.

Here’s a close up of the card using the pretty Christmas Tree from the Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive specialty DSP. I adhered it to a 3-5/8″ x 5-1/8″ gold foil mat before adhering it to the front of a Real Red 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ CARD BASE (scored at 4-1/4″). So simple, yet beautiful, especially with the gold foil touches on the tree.

For the inside, I stamped the sentiments from the Greetings of the Season stamp set using Real Red ink on a 3-3/4″ x 5″ Basic White panel and adhered a Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive DSP swag at the bottom.

I really went to town using the die cut tags from the Greetings of the Season! My thought was to layer the tags, pop the A Little Bit Festive cut outs using dimensionals and stamp the greetings using Real Red ink. I also used some retired ruffled Real Red ribbon, Gold Thread and Real Red Baker’s twine. For some of the tags, I loosely tied the loops so that the tags can be separated and swing loosely.

Here are the last two tags. The DSP patterns from the A Little Bit Festive pack layer nicely with Real Red, Pool Party and Basic White card stock. I love the long strip die cuts from the Greetings of the season dies

Just a quick post to show some pretty ideas for Christmas Tags. I don’t have card stock cuts, but I did include some product links at the bottom.

Oh, and I did hang the Rustic Christmas Countdown packets on my window! I made this last year and it ‘s still in pretty good shape! I’m getting ready for Christmas!!

Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Star Christmas Card

Good Morning! I still need to make more Christmas cards, so I pulled out the cute Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Star bundle to make one with Santa and Mrs. Clause. They’re so cute and look so festive with the Take A Bow 6″ x 6″ designer series paper. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Take A Bow designer series paper to the front of a Real Red Card base. I adhered another panel to a Real Red mat and adhered it to the card. I wanted to keep the card flat for safe mailing, so I only used dimensionals for Santa and Mrs. Claus.

I stamped Santa and Mrs. Claus from the Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Star stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Basic White and colored them with Stampin’ Blends. I used Real Red, light Basic Black, dark Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green for their clothes. I used the Natural Tones (Medium Light and Light) Stampin’ Blends for their faces, 008 for their faces and hands and 010 for Mrs. Claus’ cheeks and light Pecan Pie for her hair. I punched them out with the Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Star punch and adhered them to the card with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Star stamp set using Real Red ink on a strip of Basic White. I punched the ends with the scalloped side of the the Happy Labels Pick A Punch and adhered the label to the card with glue dots. I love how you can easily get decorative ends for your sentiment labels with this punch – and for any length sentiment! I looped a length of Real Red Baker’s Twine around the top and tied a bow.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Star stamp set using Real Red ink on Basic White and trimmed the bottom with DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The star Santa and Mrs. Claus are the cutest! And the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Star bundle are perfect for a lighthearted, fun and joyful Christmas card. And the sweet stamp set is on the Last Chance Products list on Sale!
