Stampin’ Up! Simply Said Hello Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! Here’s a simple hello card made with the Stampin’ Up! Simply Said stamp set and the pretty Celebration Sips designer series paper. 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:

Adhere a panel of Celebration Sips designer series paper to a Berry Burst card base with liquid glue. Cut another panel of DSP with one of the Textured Notes rectangle dies and adhere it to a Timid Tiger mat. Adhere the layered DSP panel to the card with dimensionals.

Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Said stamp set using Blackberry Bliss ink on Timid Tiger. Cut it out using the Textured Notes die using the two step method so that it is shorter and fits the sentiment.

Use the light Berry Burst Stampin’ Blends marker to color a length of white ribbon. Fold the ribbon and adhere it to the back of the sentiment label with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the label to the card with dimensionals and finish with Blackberry Bliss Shimmer Gems.

For the inside, use the small flower dies from the Impressions Abloom dies to cut Berry Burst, Daffodil Delight and Timid Tiger flowers. Use the Black Stampin’ Write marker to color the center and adhere them to a corner of a Basic White panel. Adhere a strip of DSP to the bottom of the panel and adhere it to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Simply Said stamp set is my go to set for simple sentiments. They are the most commonly used sentiments and the fonts will go with many different styles.

Stampin’ Up! Spooky Halloween Card

Good Morning! Are you ready for Halloween? The Stampin’ Up! Spooky Halloween bundle is such a cute set for Halloween and I’m using it with the Celebratory Sips designer series paper to make a Halloween card. You can find the card stock cuts along with the supplies at the bottom of my post.

Adhere a strip of Secret Sea Celebratory Sips DSP to a striped Timid Tiger panel with liquid glue and adhere them both to the light side of a Timid Tiger two-tone card stock mat. Adhere the layered DSP to the front of a Timid Tiger card base with liquid glue.

Cut the haunted house from Secret Sea card stock using the die from the Stampin’ Up! Spooky Halloween dies. Fussy cut a Daffodil Delight panel to cover the back of the die cut holes and adhere it to the back of the house. Use blending brushes to apply Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Timid Tiger, Berry Burst and Secret Sea inks to a Basic White panel. This makes a simple outdoor sunset background. Stamp the bats in the corner using Secret Sea ink. Adhere the blended panel to a Secret Sea mat and adhere the layered panel to the card front.

Adhere the haunted house to the blended panel with dimensionals. Use the bare tree die from the Loveliest Tree dies to cut an Early Espresso panel and adhere it next to the house. Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Spooky Halloween stamp set using Granny Apple Green ink on Basic White and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes banner die. Adhere the label with dimensionals and finish with tiny white glitter stars.

For the inside panel, stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Spooky Halloween stamp set using Timid Tiger ink on a Basic White panel. Stamp the bats in Secret Sea and adhere DSP to the bottom. Adhere the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The haunted house from the Stampin’ Up! Spooky Halloween dies is just wonderful (along with the rest of the stamps and dies in the great little bundle)! But did you ever think the Celebratory Sips DSP could be used for a Halloween card? The Timid Tiger stripes make a perfect backdrop. And I love to do blended nighttime backgrounds with a haunted house for Halloween card. This one was super simple!

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Stamping!!
