#simplestamping – Stampin' in the Meadows

Good Morning! Here’s a simple card made with the pretty Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles photopolymer stamp set from the upcoming 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. And I used all of the new 2022-2024 In Colors in making it! You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used and remember that all these products will be available on Tuesday when the 2022 – 2023 Annual Catalog launches!

I stamped the Sending sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles stamp set in the new In Color Starry Sky on a Basic White panel. I stamped the smaller sentiment below it in the new Tahitian Tide ink and the stem in Parakeet Party. I stamped the two flowers in Sweet Sorbet and used Daffodil Delight ink to stamp the flower centers.

I adhered the stamped panel to a Sweet Sorbet mat with Stampin’ Seal and then adhered the layered panel to the front of a Orchid Oasis card base. There – I got in all five of the new 2022-2024 In Colors (with a small touch of Daffodil Delight)!

I finished the card front with light Starry Sky In Color Dots. These dots are ombre, so it’s hard to tell the light Starry Sky from the dark Orchid Oasis.

For the inside of the card, I stamped little stem from the Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles stamp set in Parakeet Party in the corner of a Basic White panel. I topped it with the small flower in Sweet Sorbet and Daffodil Delight and adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

The bold new In Colors are perfect with the bold graphic flowers in the Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles stamp set for a clean and simple card.

Join me for a Facebook Live this Afternoon!

I’m planning to go live on my Facebook Page at 1:00 ET this afternoon to make a card. Join me as I use the Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles bundle to step this card up with a little die cutting and embossing. Look forward to seeing you then!

Good Morning! I wanted to make a Christmas Card with stamped Christmas greenery and the pretty Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season photopolymer stamp set was perfect. And I did not use any dies – I just stamped the images on Basic White and I’m pretty happy with how it came out. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Christmas To Remember stamp set in Cherry Cobbler on a Basic White panel and proceeded to stamp the greenery along the side and bottom of the panel.

I first stamped the large pinecone from the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season stamp set in Crumb Cake and Soft Suede – this a two step stamping image that comes out pretty nice. Then I stamped the leaves next to the pinecone in Pear Pizzazz, masking the top cluster so it would appear behind the pinecone. I added pine sprigs in Soft Succulent and berries in Cherry Cobbler. I added some filler greenery and finished it with some Bumblebee dots.

I adhered the panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat with liquid glue and adhered it to the front of a Pear Pizzazz card base with dimensionals. I finished the card front with Old Olive matte dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped some greenery and berries from the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season stamp set in the corners of a Basic White panel and stamped the sentiment in Cherry Cobbler. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

This was so easy and fun to do. I was surprised at how nice the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season images look when they’re stamped on top of each other because I’m usually worried about positioning the stamp perfectly. I don’t know if it’s the shading in each stamp or the casualness of the images, but it’s very forgiving and looks very artistic. And did I say it was easy? Give it a try!
