Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Sympathy Card

Good Morning and Happy Saturday! Here is a Fall sympathy card made with the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves bundle and sentiments from the Something Fancy and Phrases for All stamp sets. The All About Autumn 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper add a touch of fall elegance to the card. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I embossed a Copper Clay panel with the pretty Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Copper Clay card base. I adhered a panel of Pretty Peacock and copper foil All About Autumn 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper to the card front with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered another panel to a Pretty Peacock mat and adhered it to the card front with liquid glue.

I cut a small maple leaf from Pumpkin Pie with the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies and adhered it with glue dots. I cut two little leaves from Oxidized Copper specialty paper and adhered those with glue dots. I stamped the sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set in Versamark ink and sprinkled it with copper embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool. I cut the sentiment out with the label die from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies.

I looped some copper ribbon on the card front, adhering it with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the label over the ribbon and leaves with dimensionals and finished the card front with Brushed Metallic dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Phrases For All stamp set in Copper Clay ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the large maple leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves stamp set in Pumpkin Pie ink in the corner and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Sympathy cards are difficult, and I hope that the copper foil adds seasonal elegance to the card without being inappropriate. I do think that the sentiments are perfect along with all the Fall leaves.

Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow and Joy Of Noel Christmas Card

Good Morning! Today’s card is a simple Christmas card made with the pretty sentiments in the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow cling stamp set. I paired it with the beautiful Joy of Christmas designer series paper and and I used one of the pretty images from the Joy of Noel stamp set to decorate the inside. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Joy of Christmas designer series paper to the front of a Real Red panel with liquid glue. I wrapped the layered panel with Real Red ribbon and made a bow and adhered the panel to the front of a Garden Green card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the beautiful sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set in Real red ink on Basic White. I cut it out with the pretty Labels Aglow die and popped it on the card front with dimensionals.

I decorated the label with a rhinestone and holly leaves from the Loose Holly Gems and Sequins, adhered with glue dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set in Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. Rather than DSP, I stamped the image from the Joy Of Noel stamp set in stamped off Pebble Path ink in the bottom corner. I colored the image in Granny Apple Green, Garden Green and Real Red inks using a Blender Pen. I adhered the panel to a Real Red mat before adhering it to the inside of the card.

This was so simple, but the beautiful sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set make it a card anyone would love to receive. And I love how well the Joy Of Noel stamped image on the inside coordinates with the pretty DSP!

Stampin’ Up! Bag of Bones for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones bundle is a fun Halloween theme stamp and die bundle that has the best skeleton stamps and dies for a Haunted Halloween. I paired this bundle with the wonderful Them Bones designer series paper for a card depicting a spooky night of fun. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a theme challenge this week and and I chose Halloween:

I adhered a panel of the night time graveyard Them Bones designer series paper to the front of a Starry Sky card base. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones photopolymer stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Pumpkin Pie and cut it out with the second smallest banner from the Nested Essentials dies. I adhered it to the card with liquid glue.

I cut a skeleton from the Them Bones designer series paper with the Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones dies. I cut the cowboy hat and boots from Crumb Cake and adhered them to the skeleton with liquid glue and adhered the skeleton to the card front with pieces of dimensionals.

I use the cat and dog skeleton dies to cut skeletons from the Them Bones designer series paper and adhered them to the card front with liquid glue. I finished the card front with glow in the dark bats.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones stamp set in Cajun Craze ink on Basic White. I stamped the bats in Memento Tuxedo Black and trimmed the bottom with a strip of DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Thanks to the coordination between the dies in the Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones bundle and the Them Bones designer series paper, this card came together pretty quickly! Alternatively, when I finish cutting the skeleton images from the DSP, I can stamp them and cut them out with the dies. So this is going to provide Halloween crafting fun for a long time!

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

Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch Blessings Card

Good Morning and Happy Monday! The Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch bundle is a fun stamp and punch bundle that is perfect for Fall and Holiday crafting! The stamp set has so many cute pumpkin and other fall stamps and some of them can be punched out with the coordinating punch. I paired it with the Glorious Gingham designer series paper and the wonderful Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder for today’s card. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Glorious Gingham 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Basic White mat and popped it on the front of a Pecan Pie card base with dimensionals. I cut two Basic White panels with the 3rd and 4th largest Deckled Rectangles dies and embossed the smaller one with the pretty Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder. I adhered the embossed rectangle to the larger one and wrapped them with Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine and made a bow.

I stamped two large pumpkins from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of the Patch stamp set in Pumpkin Pie and Petal Pink inks and punched them out. I stamped the smaller pumpkin in stamped off Lost Lagoon ink and punched it out. I stamped the last crooked neck one in Crushed Curry and fussy cut this one. I used the speckled stamp to decorate each pumpkin in the same color ink and adhered them to the die cut rectangles with glue dots and dimensionals.

I stamped the leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Mossy Meadow and the stems in Pecan Pie and punched them out. I adhered them to the pumpkins with liquid glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Pecan Pie ink on Basic White and cut it out with one of the Deckled Rectangles dies using the two step method. I adhered it to the panel with glue dots and popped the panel onto the card front with dimensionals. I finished the card with three Iridescent Pastel gems.

For the inside of the card, I adhered a strip of DSP to the bottom of a Basic White panel and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

This could be a simple fall themed note card or a lighthearted Thanksgiving card. The Stampin’ Up! Pick of The Patch bundle is also great for Halloween – I think that’s the next project!

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees Modern Christmas Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees bundle is a wonderful Christmas Tree stamp set set that is so versatile and fun! I paired it with the Merry Bold and Bright designer series paper for a modern Christmas Card in different shades of green and gold. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a strip of Merry Bold & Bright designer series paper to a larger panel with liquidd glue and adhered the layered panel to a Granny Apple Green mat. I wrapped a length of gold ribbon around the DSP seam and made a bow (In my short, I used gold trim which worked out great!). I popped the panel on the front of a Shaded Spruce card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees photopolymer stamp set in Shaded Spruce ink on Granny Apple Green and cut it out with the second largest tree die. I cut the tree stand and two stars from gold foil and adhered the detailed star to the solid star. I adhered the star to the tree top with a glue dot and adhered the tree stand to the card front with glue dots..

I adhered the tree to the card front with dimensionals and decorated the tree with gold sequins.

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

Here’s a picture of both cards, so you can see the gold trim. This design comes together real quick and would be a good choice for making multiples. The Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees sentiment on the solid tree is such a cheerful way to send Christmas greetings.

Stampin’ Up! Medley Mix Hello Card

Good Morning! Have you seen the Stampin’ Up! Medley Mix photopolymer stamp set in the Sept-Dec 2023 Mini Catalog? This is one of those easy to overlook stamp sets and it coordinates with the Inked and Tiled Punch Pack! I used it with the Merry Bold & Bright designer series paper to make a colorful Hello card. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Merry Bold and Bright designer series paper to the front of a Blueberry Bushel card base with liquid glue. I cut a panel of Basic White with the small rectangle from the Radiating Stitches dies and stamped it with the stitch stamps from the Stampin’ Up! Medley Mix stamp set in Flirty Flamingo and Pool Party inks. I adhered the die cut to the card front with liquid glue.

I stamped the fabric stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Medley Mix stamp set in Blueberry Bushel on Basic White and punched it out with the star punch from the Inked and Tiled punch pack. I stamped the starry grid stamp in Granny Apple Green on Basic White and punched it out with the star punch. I punched a Crushed Curry star panel of the DSP with the same punch and adhered them to the card front with glue dots.

I stamped the floral stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Medley Mix stamp set in Melon Mambo ink on Basic White and cut it out with a circle from the Stylish Shapes die. I adhered the circle to the card front with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment in Garden Green on Pool Party and trimmed the ends. I adhered the label to the card with dimensionals and glue dots and finished the card with a Sweet Sorbet baker’s twine bow and tinsel gems.

I left the inside of the card blank and simply trimmed the bottom of a Basic White panel with a strip of DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love all the colorful geometric elements in this card and the Stampin’ Up! Medley Mix stamp set with the Inked and Tiled Punches is perfect for this style!

Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals bundle is a pretty floral set and the Delightful Floral designer series paper that is part of the Special Release coordinates with it perfectly. 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 and I featured the pretty Delightful Floral designer series paper:

I adhered a adhered a panel of the Delightful Floral designer series paper to the front of a Parakeet Party card base with liquid glue and wrapped a length of Parakeet Party ribbon around the card front tying a bow.

I cut three panels of Delightful Florals DSP with three circles from the Stylish Shapes dies. I adhered the two largest to the card with liquid glue, tucking them under the ribbon. I adhered the smallest circle with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals stamp set in Versamark ink on Berry Burst. I sprinkled it with white embossing powder, shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I did this in two steps, so that the words would be in a straight line instead of over each other. I cut the sentiment out with the long skinny banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies and adhered it with dimensionals. I finished the card with tinsel gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the small flower and stems from the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals stamp set in the corners of a Basic White panel. I stamped the stems in Pretty Peacock and the flowers in Berry Burst, Calypso Coral and Fresh Freesia. I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

A simple birthday card made with the pretty Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals bundle and Delightful Floral designer series paper.

Stampin’ Up! Carousel Horses Birthday Card

The Stampin’ Up! Carousel Horse bundle is such a cute set with stamps and dies you can use to make a pretty carousel. I used it to make a sweet birthday card with rainbow ponies and lots of pink sparkle! Plus, it’s a simple fun fold! You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Bright and Beautiful 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Berry Burst panel. I adhered a 2-1/2″ wide mini card base to the layered panel with liquid glue and adhered another panel of DSP to the front. I cut a Basic White panel with the second largest scalloped contours die and adhered another panel of DSP to the center.

I cut the main carousel from Melon Mambo using the pretty Stampin’ Up! Carousel Horses dies. I used the die again to cut the top two cutouts from Bubble Bath shimmer paper and cut the trim from Rose Gold iridescent foil. I adhered the post and base to the scalloped rectangle with glue dots and the shimmer paper with dimensionals.

I stamped the horses from the Stampin’ Up! Carousel Horses stamp set in Smoky Slate ink on Basic White. I stamped the saddle details in Berry Burst and colored the backgroundof the saddle with the light Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blend. I colored the manes and tales with lighht Melon Mambo, light Granny Apple Green, dark Lemon Lolly and light Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends for a rainbow pony look. I adhered the ponies to the panel with glue dots and adhered the top foil decoration with dimensionals. I adhered the panel to the mini card front with liquid glue and finished it with silver pearls.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Carousel Horses stamp set in Berry Burst ink on a Basic White panel. I cut some balloons using the Zany Zoo balloon die from Melon Mambo, Fresh Freesia and Bubble bath and adhered them to the corner. I drew some strings with a Basic Gray Stampin’ Write marker and adhered the panel to the inside of the mini card with Stampin’ Seal.

The ponies in the Stampin’ Up! Carousel Horses bundle are just as pretty as Unicorns and are sure to delight a little girl on her birthday. And even better, you can really ride carousel horses!!

Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Friendship Card

Good Morning! Here’s another quick card made with the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves bundle. This card is kind of CASE’d (copy and share everything) from a card in the Sept-Dec 2023 Mini Catalog but I really did change it up by making it a standard A2 size card rather than the elongated one in the catalog. But it worked and it came together pretty quick! You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I embossed Pretty Peacock card stock with the Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Pretty Peacock card base. I adhered a strip of All About Autumn 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper to the card front with liquid glue and adhered a length of natural ribbon to it with Stampin’ Seal.

I used the dotted embossing dies from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies to add texture to Very Vanilla card stock. I used the small maple leaf die to cut leaves from Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Crumb Cake and Pumpkin Pie card stock and Oxidized Copper specialty paper. I adhered the leaves to the Very Vanilla panel with glue dots and wrapped it twice with Linen Thread and tied a bow. I adhered the panel to the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Arrangements stamp set and used the skinny label die from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies to cut it out. I adhered it to the card front with glue dots. I finished the card with the pretty Speckled dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the large maple leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves stamp set three times around the edges of a Very Vanilla panel. I used stamped off Cajun Craze, stamped off Crumb Cake and stamped off Crushed Curry. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I loved using the dies to add texture to the very Vanilla panel! And I love the simple little maple leaf die cuts from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies. Can you believe that yesterday was the first day of Autumn? I guess it’s time for sweaters and falling leaves!
