Stampin’ Up! Showing off NEW Fancy Flora 6×6 DSP

Good Wednesday! It has been a week today since hubby had total left knee replacement. The week SEEMS to have flown by, but not really.My craft room is upstairs and I keep bringing items down to the main floor to work as I can. And you know what – it ALL has to return to its rightful place SOON – in time for family to arrive Christmas Day. And… I desperately need to wrap presents!!! Does everyone have their wrapping complete but me? 🥴

Fancy Flora 6×6 DSP is new in the Jan-Apr 2023 Mini Catalog – and at first I didn’t really like it much. But as I work with it, it’s really growing on me. Today I have combined the Fancy Flora DSP with Something Fancy stamp set & coordinating dies, but also the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder. As I mentioned in an earlier post, this paper reminds me of oils and Monet and this embossing folder just ‘goes’. I’ve also used Natural Finish Ribbon, Opal Rounds, and Sahara Sand ink.

Stampin' Up! Fancy Flora DSP.1

What I did:

  • Cut a panel of Fancy Flora 6×6 DSP (available Jan 5, 2023) to cover the entire front of an A2 card.
  • Emboss this panel with the Painted Texture 3D EF; adhere panel to a Thick Basic White card base
  • Cut a length of Natural Finish Ribbon, trim ends to your liking, fold over and add to card front with glue dots
  • Stamp sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set with Sahara Sand ink; die cut with coordinating Something Fancy Dies
  • Adhere die cut over the ribbon with dimensionals
  • Add three Opal Rounds and the front is done!
Stampin' Up! Something Fancy stamp set
Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Dies

Something Fancy stamp set and Something Fancy Dies – (available Jan 5, 2023). These also coordinate with the Fancy Floral bundle. The sentiments are great for lots of different occasions.

Stampin' Up! Fancy Flora DSP, card inside
Stampin' Up! Fancy Flora DSP completed card & envelope

You can see I stamped a sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set – Sahara Sand ink, then added a strip of the Fancy Flora 6×6 DSP to the bottom. For the envelope, more of the same pattern Fancy Flora DSP adhered to flap & trimmed to fit. Voila! Look at some of the papers in this pack and see if you could create something similar – but a masculine card. I think you can!

If you would like to order any of the products to make this card from my online store or any other items, that’s really easy to do. And remember to use my current HOST CODE 4BGN9HG4 to earn credit from me.

Stampin’ Up! Sneaky Peek Two-Tone Flora

Good Sunday morning everyone! Who can tell me what happens just one week from today? 🎄That’s a hint. Yay! Christmas! A time for celebrating Christ’s birth. A time for sharing our love for one another. Rejoice!

Today I’m sharing a sneaky peek of new products from the Jan-Apri 2023 Mini Catalog. This is such a sweet, soft all occasion card with an absolutely beautiful die as the focus. But in this sneaky peek I will show you the other dies and the stamps in this set as well as the new DSP that coordinates with it. Let’s look at the card first.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Dies

Is this gorgeousness or what?! It’s die cut with a single die with Thick Basic White card stock. I like to use the Thick paper for a die cut like this as it gives it more strength. You can see I added a Linen bow with a glue dot after stamping the sentiment (Inspired Thoughts stamp set) in Blushing Bride ink. Then with my paper snips I created the end and attached the stamped strip with dimensionals. Done!

Here’s the coordinating die.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Dies.1

It looks as though I didn’t clean all the paper out of the die cut. Yep – I’ll have to do that prior to using it again. This decorated card front is 4 1/8 x 5 1/2. You could make it 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 prior to running it through the die cutter. And I layered this on coordinating Fancy Flora 6×6 DSP. Both were attached to the card base of Blushing Bride 4 1/45 x 11, scored at 5 1/2. Here’s a look at the DSP. Keep in mind it looks similar to oil paints, a Monet perhaps.

Stampin' Up! Fancy Flora 6x6 DSP, side 1
Stampin' Up! Fancy Flora 6x6 DSP side 2

The colors in the DSP are Balmy Blue, Basic Gray, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Evening Evergreen, Fresh Freesia, Night of Navy, Orchid Oasis, Pool Party, Soft Sea Foam, Soft Suede, Soft Succulent.

Interestingly, my card uses Blushing Bride, Petal Pink and Merry Merlot + Pear Pizzazz for the green. And it works! Let’s look more closely at the stamp set and the other dies. I haven’t used other dies on this card – but will soon use in the future. :O)

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora stamps
Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora stamps, stamped

The closest photo is those very stamps, stamped on paper to dimply ‘see’ what they look like and how they coordinate with one another. I’ve tried to put stamp them together with the stamps that coordinate. it isn’t perfect, but you can easily see how they work.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Dies, 2

In this photo at left you see the coordinating floral and leaf dies. For each of the individual solid floral stamps, there is a coordinating die – and same is true for the leaves: a leaf spray + the two-leaf stamp.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Bundle, inside

The large flower is stamped in Blushing bride and Merry Merlot for the detail. The detail doesn’t show very well :O( However, the two other flowers are stamped in Petal Pink with Merry Merlot for the detail and you can see how well that works. The same two-leaf stamp is used to stamp around the flowers with Pear Pizzazz ink. This was done on Basic White, then adhered to the inside of the card.

The sentiment on both the front and inside are stamped in Blushing Bride ink and come from Inspiring Thoughts stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Two-Tone Flora Bundle, completed card

The envelope got more of the very same pattern of Fancy Flora DSP trimmed to fit after adhering in place to the flap. The flower ‘burst’ is stamped in Petal Pink with Merry Merlot for detail. And here’s tip: stamp the more solid stamp as step 1, step 2 is the detail.

If you would like to order any of the products to make this card from my online store or any other items, that’s really easy to do.

Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight Sneaky Peek

I played with this new bundle (Dainty Delight) a bit ago, but not like this. This time I stamped all the stamps and die cut all the dies, mostly to see what was in the set, how they go together, how to use. And since I hadn’t really done this to this extent in the past, I found it very helpful.

Stampin' Up! Dainty Delight stamp set

In the third photo you can clearly see how dies coordinate with a good many of the stamps in the bundle. Remember, this set will be available in the Jan-Apr Mini Catalog that goes live Jan 5, 2023! And, in keeping with this set, I used a coordinating DSP that is actually a FREE item with a $50 purchase during the Jan/ Feb Sale-a-bration. And here are those papers.

Stampin' Up! Dainty Flowers DSP

Aren’t these colors just lovely? The paper I used for the card I’m sharing is in the 2nd photo, far left, but another section. The coordinating colors are Blushing Bride, Old Olive, Crushed Curry, Starry Sky & Rich Razzleberry. I’ve also included Pear Pizzazz on my card. Let’s take a look.

Stampin' Up! Dainty Delight Sneaky Peek. card front

Stampin' Up! Dainty Delight Sneaky Peek.completed set

Card stock colors: Blushing Bride for the dainty flowers; Crushed Curry, daisies, Fresh Freesia for another small flower, Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive for the background leaf fronds. The ribbon is Old Olive Twill Ribbon from the Combo Pack & Linen Thread. I also added some bling: Iridescent Pearls, Gold Adhesive-Backed Swirls and Brushed Brass Butterflies. The card base is Old Olive and the stamping uses Soft Suede ink.

Stampin’ Up! Adorable Owls Fun Fold

Oh my goodness… I received some preorder items from the Jan-April Mini Catalog along with a few Jan/Feb Sale-a-bration items and I’m having SO MUCH FUN! Today’s card features Dandy Designs DSP and the Adorable Owls stamp set from the Sale-a-bration catalog – AND it’s a super easy Fun Fold. Let’s take a peek…

Stampin' Up! Adorable Owls Fun Fold

Isn’t this little guy just the cutest! And the sentiment ‘Hoot! Hoot!’ is also from the Adorable Owls stamp set. Actually it’s a partial sentiment… meaning I used some retired Washi tape to cover the part I didn’t want to use. I also used some White 6×6 Glimmer Paper for the upper DSP. The other DSP is called Dandy Designs DSP and is a large pack of 30 sheets of 12×12. The dots are the reverse of the sideways stripes. :O) Let me share with you how to make this fun fold design…

  • Cut the card base (here it is Balmy Blue) 5 1/2 x 7 1/4 and score @ 4 1/4
  • Cut another panel of Balmy Blue 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 (that’s the front largest square)
  • Cut DSP:
    • 2 3/4 x 5 1/4 (here I used the White 6×6 Glimmer Paper)
    • 4 x 5 1/4 for inside panel
    • 3 1/4 x 3 14
  • Adhere panels to the appropriate places with adhesive of choice.
  • Stamp the owl from Adorable Owls stamp set in Memento Black ink on Basic White panel
  • Color owl with Stampin’ Blends
    • Light & Dark Soft Suede for the body of the owl
    • Dark Daffodil Delight for the eyes
    • Dark Basic Black – for the smaller portion of the eyes
    • Light Basic Black for the beak + Color Lifter for highlighting
    • Dark Pumpkin Pie for the bow tie
  • Chalk Marker (white) for the eye highlight
  • Die cut owl panel with Stylish Shapes Dies
  • Adhere owl to the square panel, centering, with dimensionals
  • Stamp the sentiment from Adorable Owls stamp set, covering unwanted portion, in Memento Black
  • Adhere to square panel with mini dimensionals. The right end of the sentiment will need stacked dimensionals
  • Adhere completed square to top panel only
  • Add Fine Sparkle Adhesive-Backed Gems in Balmy Blue

For the inside… cut another Basic White Square 3 1/4 x 3 1/4. Stamp owl as listed above & color. Stamp sentiment using the Inspired Thoughts stamp set in Memento Black ink. To adhere… open card, lay this panel on the upper panel right side down & upside down, centering it on the square. Add adhesive and close the bottom portion of the card on the piece. Bingo – attached properly 😀👍

For the envelope… more of the same Balmy Blue & White stripe pattern from Dandy Designs DSP – on the flap of course. I chose not to stamp anything on the envelope front. This card was sent already… to a man friend who recently had surgery. I hope he likes it – and he feels better too!

Stampin’ Up! Textured Chic DSP and More for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday to you! Welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop with a fun sketch challenge.

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop 12/8
Stampin' Up! Blog Hop Sketch Challenge 12/8

Time is quickly nearing Christmas – how many days? I’m not going to count, it’s too scary! We have our tree up & decorated and I finally found the tree skirt :O) I put it away in a different place last year but couldn’t remember just where that was :O( We don’t usually put our tree up quite so early (it’s fresh cut) but hubby is having knee replacement surgery next week and everything will go on hold for a bit. I’m hoping to continue posting regularly but we’ll see. My goal is to prep ahead so I can give him all the time necessary, but … there’s always a but.

Today’s card uses two main stamp bundles: both the Seasoned Chic with Chic Dies and Christmas Banners with Christmas Banners Dies.

Stampin' Up! Season of Chic.Blog Hop 12/8.1

The card base is a typical A2 tent card on it’s side with Evening Evergreen. I’ve layered a panel of Textured Chic 12 x 12 DSP on Basic White and adhered it to the card front, leaving a border both top & bottom. Next I used the splendid Chic Dies to die cut snowflakes from Basic White and Soft Succulentcard stocks. Then I stamped the banner on Basic White with Soft Succulent ink and the Christmas Banners stamp set. The words on the banner are also Soft Succulent ink and come from the Christmas Banner stamp set. I attached the banner to the card front with dimensionals then added the snowflakes with liquid glue, glue dots or dimensionals.nFor a bit of extra glam and to bring in another color, I used the Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels and love the subtle contrast!

Stampin' Up! Season of Chic.Blog Hop 12/8.2

For the inside, snowflakes from the Season of Chic stamp set stamped randomly in Soft succulent ink. The sentiment comes from the Season of Chic stamp set and is in Evening Evergreen ink. All this on a Basic White panel then secured into the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Season of Chic.Blog Hop 12/8.3

For the envelope, a coordinating panel of the Textured Chic DSP for the flap and a few more snowflakes from Season of Chic stamp set in Soft Succulent ink on the front – and done! This card has a real elegance and simplicity at the same time: soft colors and not too fussy. This would an easy card to replicate if necessary.

Now – time to move along the hop to the fabulous Carol Buckalew. Either click on the ‘next’ button or on a name if you prefer to hop around.

Stampin’ Up! Season of Chic Bundle Thinking of You

Welcome to Tuesday! I’ve a fun card for you today that is pretty quick & easy – and we all like quick & easy, especially now. We had a Team Meeting Sunday afternoon and this card was demonstrated by Tara Carpenter. I’ve used different colors, but the idea is the same.

Stampin' Up! Season of Chic Thinking of You.1

I like that the colors are rather soft for the die cut. And I’m calling this particular die cut ‘mesh’ or ‘netting’, cuz that’s what I think of when I see it :O) – using the Chic Dies of course And I die cut it from Textured Chic 12 x 12 DSP. I set that aside and die cut a few of the outline flowers from the Chic Dies from 12 x 12 Foil Sheets – in Gold. Next I ran a 3 3/4 x 5 piece of Very Vanilla card stock through the Timeworn Type 3D embossing Folder and began assembling. Thick Very Vanilla for the tent card base, layer of Mango Melody card stock, then the embossed panel. Just a few dabs of liquid glue to hold the ‘mesh’ to the embossed panel. Stamp the sentiment from Season of Chic stamp set in Petal Pink ink and die cut with the smallest of the Deckled Rectangle Dies and adhere with dimensionals. I again used dabs of liquid glue to attach the two outline floral dies to the sentiment banner. For a final touch, three Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed dots in Rose Gold were added. And the card front was done!

Stampin'n Up! Season of Chic Thinking of you.inside

I kept the inside very simple – another of the floral outline die cuts from the Chic Dies was added to a panel of Very Vanilla card stock, and that was added to the inside of the card. Done. This card is going to a friend whose husband had a stroke recently, son lots of support needed for both of them!

Stampin' Up! Season of Chic Thinking of you.3

See the Textured Chic 12 x 12 DSP on the envelope flap? That is the very same DSP I used to die cut the ‘mesh’ on the card front! Remember, Season of Chic and Chic Dies – a great bundle!!!

Stampin’ Up Wisteria Wishes Birthday

Wow – Dec 1 was amazing, wasn’t it? All the goodies Stampin’ Up is offering in the LAST CHANCE SALE and the CLEARANCE RACK – it’s hard to say ‘no’. PLUS there is the ability to order the Fitting Florets Collection and well – lots going on in the Stampin’ Up! world.

So here I am with a different kind of card for you… I’m working with the Wisteria Wishes stamp set and coordinating Wisteria Dies. I’ve also included some stampin and a bit of the 2022-2024 In Color Glimmer Paper. The color I’m using is Orchid Oasis, cuz, wisteria is often purple, right? And glimmer paper is well, just sparkly & fun. I’ve also done some stamping. Let’s take a look.

Stampin' Up! Wisteria Wishes Birthday.1

The card base is Thick Basic White. The next layer is the 2022-2024 In Color 6×6 Glimmer Paper in Orchid Oasis. The next layer is Basic White that I ran through the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. Doesn’t it remind you of a brick wall? It does to me! Then I did some stamping and die cutting.

Stamping: In the background I hope you see the wisteria from Wisteria Wishes stamp set, in a different shade than the glimmer paper~ that’s a two-step stamp: first the background stamped in Highland Heather ink, then the detail stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink, then die cut with the Wisteria Dies. I also stamped the wisteria leaves/branch from Wisteria Wishes stamp set in Pear Pizzazz ink and used a sponge dauber to add some depth with Old Olive ink. I did some additional die cutting with the Wisteria Dies: leaves/branch from Pear Pizzazz card stock & three more wisteria, this time from the 2022-2024 In Color 6×6 Glimmer Paper in Orchid Oasis. Because the Glimmer paper is graduated in shade, it provides a really nice variance/ difference in each of those particular die cuts. The leaves/ branch die cuts are adhered with liquid glue; the stamped wisteria are adhered with dimensionals; the glimmer paper wisteria are added with liquid glue. I love how many of the leaves are loose to create depth ands the glimmer paper wisteria are free-flowing at the ends – also to create depth. The sentiment banner is stamped in Highland Heather ink on a Basic White strip using the Happiness Abounds stamp set. I trimmed the end into a ‘banner tip’ then added it to the card front with dimenstionals. Final step… the three 2022-2024 In Color Matte Dots in Orchid Oasis.

Stampin' Up! Wisteria Wishes Birthday.2

For the inside, I chose another branch die cut from the Wisteria Dies and Pear Pizzazz card stock, slightly trimmed, to adhere around the stamped Highland Heather ink sentiment from Happiness Abounds stamp set. At the bottom is a scrap of the leftover 2022-2024 In Color Glimmer Paper in Orchid Oasis.

Stampin' Up! Wisteria Wishes Birthday.3

For the envelope… a 2 1/4 x 6 strip of the 2022-2024 In Color 6×6 DSP for the envelope flap, trimmed to fit. The sentiment is from Happiness Abounds and stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink. I made a bit of a ‘bluber’ (mistake) when I stamped, so used the Gorgeous Grape Marker to create this fun design around it to look like a postage stamp 🥴 And it’s ready for mailing! What do you think? Do you like?

Stampin’ Up! Fabulous Frames & By the Bay Specialty 6×6 DSP

Good Monday Morning! Oh my goodness… family was here for a couple of days and it was so so incredibly good! Lots of work keeping up with all the dirty dishes and constantly making food, but so worth it. Grateful, thankful, feeling very blessed.

Today’s card uses more of the Fabulous Frames Dies & By the Bay 6×6 Specialty DSP – and in a more feminine birthday card. The colors are so perfect for this young person.

Stampin' Up! Fabulous Frames Dies & By the Bay Sp 6x6 DSP.Jodi

The sentiment used the Let’s Celebrate embossing folder again, and this time I not only cut it down, but cut it apart :O) I die cut two frames using the Fabulous Frames Dies, one in Basic White and another in Pool Party, which is a coordinating color to the paper. I wanted the outside frame in the Basic White and the inner portion in Pool Party – now I have extra to play with another day . The card has a layer of the By the Bay Specialty 6×6 DSP on the Night of Navy card base, then the Fabulous Frame Die cut was adhered with liquid glue. The Pool Party panel is on dimensionals; the Happy Birthday is adhered with liquid glue, and the Fine Sparkle Adhesive-Backed Gems were added ~ and the card front is really complete.

For the inside, a b it of a strip of the By the Bay 6×6 Specialty DSP along the edge of the Basic White panel, which was then adhered to the inside of the Night of Navy card base. I left the inside blank ‘cuz I have lots of things to say to her. ❤️

Stampin' Up! Fabulous Frames Dies & By the Bay 6x6 Specialty DSP.Jodi

For the envelope, there was a short panel of the By the Bay 6×6 Specialty DSP remaining, so I used it on the front of the envelope. I took another piece of Pool Party card stock and embossed it with the Let’s Celebrate embossing folder and adhered that to the flap. Durn – forgot to take a photo!

At any rate – this By the BaySpecialty DSP is stunning and gorgeous and has a beachy feel to it – so versatile. It will be available in the Jan-Apr 2023 Annual Catalog.

Stampin’ Up! Birthday with By the Bay Specialty DSP

Hello – ’tis Sat and our families are here to celebrate Thanksgiving. We share with in-laws :O)and they come here after. It works. Today’s card is a shaker card for a special birthday young man. I’ve used a couple of new items: two new to me & one new in the Jan-Apr 2023 Mini Catalog: the Let’s Celebrate Embossing Folder and the Fabulous Frames Dies are both new items for me. The By the Bay 6×6 Specialty DSP is also new to Jan-April 2023 Mini Catalog and is gorgeous!

Stampin' Up! By the Bay 6x6 Sp DSP Shaker card

This DSP looks so ‘beachy’ to me so I’ve used Sahara Sand card stock to create the frame using the Fabulous Frames Dies. And the Let’s Celebrate Embossing Folder was used for just this sentiment. I cut it way down just for this. I should have taken more pictures 😖… Anyhoo… the By the Bay 6×6 Specialty DSP was adhered to a Sahara Sand card base so it encompassed the full front of the card. To secure the window sheet to the inside of the frame, I used Tear n’ Tape all around the frame, then put the window sheet in place, then the Foam Adhesive strips were adhered to that. I attached the ‘frame’ to the card front just at the bottom, then sprinkled in a few Effervescent Elements and secured the rest of the frame in place. The sentiment was adhered just to the frame. Very masculine, don’t you think?

I kept the inside really simple ‘cuz I have some special things I want to write. 😏 I adhered a strip of the very same By the Bay 6×6 Specialty DSP along the left side to a Basic White panel – and called it done. I kept the envelope simple as well – another strip of the same By the Bay 6×6 Specialty DSP, just wider, to the left edge of the envelope. I really do like the masculinity of this card.
