Stampin’ Up! Seasonally Scattered Love is in the Air

The more I use this stamp set the more I love it!  I’ve used it for fall cards and for Christmas cards.  Now I’m using it for Valentine cards!  The hearts are from our new Confetti Heart Border Punch that will be available on 6 January 2015 from the Occasions catalog. The image was stamped with Versamark on Whisper White Card Stock.  I then added Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Emboss Powder… Read More »

Blended Bloom Nov 2014 Stampin’ Up!

Today’s card features the Blended Bloom and Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Sets.   The Blended Bloom is perfect for coloring with the blendabilities.  I’ve included a Stampin’ Up! video on some simple tricks to using our blendabilities. Because the card doesn’t lay flat, I added a band that slips off and on really easy.  The sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set.  It was punched out using the Modern… Read More »

Seasonally Scattered – Stampin’ Up!

How long do you think it would take you to make this card?  Once I had the card stock selected, it took me under ten minutes! I used the Seasonally Scattered Clear Mount Stamp Set to make this quick and easy card.  First thing I did was to color in the rhinestones using the darkest marker from the Wisteria Wonder Assortment Blendabilities – then set them aside to dry. I… Read More »

Simple Sunday I Heart You

Thought I’d get away from Halloween, Fall and Christmas Card and make a Valentine’s Card.  This was such a quick and simple card (under 10 minutes) but I like the way it turned out!  What do you think? I used the retired Color Spritzer Tool (one of my favorite tools) to add a little color to the background.  If you don’t have one, you can also use the splatter image… Read More »

Stampin’ Up! In This Together

To stop shopping is to stop breathing!  That the sentiment for this image from the In This Together Clear Mount Stamp Set.  And I have to admit that I am a bit of a shopaholic. I bought a thinlit die that matches the stamp set from Dies by Dave.   This is so cool and I hope he continues to make more dies for our stamp sets.  He is not affiliated… Read More »

Stampin’ Up! For All Things

We had our last cup of coffee on the back deck this morning.  Fall is here and it’s too cold (and dark!) at 7 am to enjoy our coffee outside.  The leaves have begun to turn – love the autumn in this area. Simple expressions of gratitude can be the most heartfelt. The down-to-earth For All Things clear- and wood-mount stamps will turn your thoughts to the traditions of fall… Read More »

Stampin’ Up! Flower Patch

Oh the flowers you can make with the Flower Patch Two-Step Photopolymer Stamp Set!  It’s got all the shapes and sizes you’ll want plus great greetings and several stems for endless possibilities. I really didn’t have pattern paper to match the colors I wanted to use for this card so I made my own!  Using a Sponge Dauber, I stamped a random pattern of circles using the Blushing Bride Classic… Read More »

Stampin’ Up! Wondrous Wreath

Today’s card uses the Wondrous Wreath Bundle like yesterday but I went with the more traditional colors of Real Red & Garden Green. Not sure which one I like more – what do you think?  Which one do you like the best?  See yesterday’s card here. To give the bow more textured, I ran it through the Delicate Designs Embossing Folder.  The sentiment is from the Bright & Beautiful Clear… Read More »
