Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Triple Box Card

Posted on February 17, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Good morning! I’m still in my birthday week and folks have been so generous, both in sending cards and the giving of gifties. Of course, the best gift of all is the gift of friendship :O) Today’s card is just super cute – a triple box card. I may have done one of these in the past, but some time ago.

Stampin' Up! Translucent Florals Triple Box Card

Is this cute or what?! The Translucent Florals stamp set is a distinctive stamp set, which means it has lots of dimension in the stamp. And it prefers an ink pad that is not too inky. The flower is stamped in Fresh Freesia ink and the leaves are stamped in Parakeet Party ink – both stamps from the Translucent Florals stamp set. Each was die cut with the coordinating Translucent Florals Dies. I also used the Leaves Punch and Vellum to punch some background for the main flower. These are attached to a Basic White Hexagon Punched background, some with with Stampin’ Seal or liquid glue. The flower is on a dimensional in order to tuck the leaves and Vellum elements behind it. The double bow is made with Baker’s Twine Three Color Pack, Lemon Yellow & attached with a single glue dot to hold it in place.

The box itself is made with Berry Burst for the card base and Delightful Floral 12 x 12 DSP.

Card base: 8 1/4 x 4, scored at 2, 4, 6, & 8

Small boxes for front (2) – same color as card base: 8 1/4 x 2 scored at 2, 4, 6, 8

Mechanism to hold decorated element- same color as card base: 3 x 1/2 scored at 1/2, 1, 2, & 2 1/2

DSP (Designer Series Paper): (2) 3 3/4 x 1 3/4; (10) 1 3/4 x 1 3/4

Directions:

Burnish all score lines. See photos for reference
Add adhesive to smallest scored section, fold over and adhere. Do this for all three boxes.
Add DSP to inside of tallest box sections. This will be the inside back of the box.
Adhere one of the smaller boxes to the tall front box.
Adhere the other smaller box beside it.
Decorate fronts of all three boxes with the 1 3/4″ DSP – this will use six (6) pieces
Adhere shorter pieces of DSP to inside of smaller boxes – this will use the last four (4) 1 3/4″ squares.

Stampin’ Up! Lifetime of Love and Paper Butterfly Accents

Posted on February 10, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Friday morning! Another week and where did it go? I have a sweet card for you today using the Lifetime of Love Bundle and then Paper Butterfly Accents. I love a monochromatic look with just a bit of soft color and this card is it.

Stampin' Up! Lifetime of Love & Paper Butterfly Accents

I started with coloring the Paper Butterfly Accent with Orchid Oasis ink and a Blending Brush. Then I took my Stampin’ Blend in Orchid Oasis and flicked color on the butterfly. I set this aside to stamp the floral design from Lifetime of Love stamp set in Pebbled Path ink. I colored the flower with Stampin’ Blends Light Fresh Freesia and Dark Highland Heather. The leaves are colored with Stampin’ Blends Light Parakeet Party and Dark Granny Apple Green. I die cut this with the coordinating Lifetime of Love Dies and set this aside as well.

The card base is Thick Basic White. I added a layer of Basic White trimmed 1/4″ less than the card front and added it with liquid glue.; two layers on dimensionals: one is Basic White cut with a Perennial Postage Dies; the other is a Basic White trimmed to fit inside the die and run through the Softly Sophisticated 3D Embossing Folder. I love this embossing folder. It is one of my favorite! These two pieces were adhered together with liquid glue then added to the card base with dimensionals. I die cut this wonderful leaf circle from the Lifetime of Love Dies in Basic White and centered it on the card front using dabs of liquid glue. I added the colored floral image with dimensionals, then the butterfly both with liquid glue & dimensionals trimmed to fit under various wing areas. I wanted a bit of sparkle so added two of the Purple Fine Shimmer Gems to the butterfly and dabs of Wink of Stella to the flowers. They shimmer beautifully but it doesn’t show well in the photos.

Stampin' Up! Lifetime of Love & Paper Butterfly Accents card inside

For the inside… again, a Basic White panel trimmed 1/4″ smaller than the card was added to the inside. On that is the outside rim of the die cut from the Perennial Postage Die used on the card front. :O) I also stamped a small flower in Orchid Oasis ink and used my Blender Pen to move the ink around on the flower portion only. It gives depth to the flower. I die cut it with the floral di from Lifetime of Love Dies and adhered it with liquid glue.

Stampin' Up! Lifetime of Love & Pasper Butterfly Accents card & envelope

For the envelope… I embossed the flap using the same Softly Sophisticated 3D Embossing Folder. For the envelope front, I again stamped a single flower in Orchid Oasis ink and used my Blender Pen to move the ink on the flower only, not the leaves. And again, I used my Orchid Oasis Stampin’ Blend to flick ink around it. It’s subtle but adds a nice touch. This card could so easily be sympathy card or a birthday card, or happy anniversary or thinking of you – very versatile – and a sentiment may be added or not. Hope you like…

Many of the items needed to make this card are in the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog; some are in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

Stampin’ Up! Perennial Lavender Here For You card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on February 8, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Today is Thursday – which means, it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We have a color challenge today and I really like these color combinations. Perennial Lavender 12 x 12 DSP fits the bill perfectly!

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Stampin' Up! Perennial Lavender Here For you Card front

I started by determining the showy piece of Perennial Lavender DSP for the front of the card. I die cut the piece with a Deckled Rectangle Die. And yes, I could have used the Perennial Postage Dies instead – and you could easily make that change if you decided to CASE this card. I wanted a slightly less ‘edgy’ look and that’s why I used the Deckled Rectangle Dies. I backed the DSP with a Basic White panel. I used another piece of the Perennial Lavender DSP to die cut the floral image. I adhered it to the DSP panel with dimensionals that I trimmed down to size, then added a double Linen Thread bow and attached it with a glue dot. I wanted a sentiment and pulled out the Perennial Postage stamp set and stamped the sentiment in Gorgeous Grape ink, cut it apart & fussy cut around the single word – setting the rest aside. I created a Gorgeous Grape card base and covered it with another Perennial Lavender DSP panel just slightly smaller in size. I attached the showy DSP panel to the card front with dimensionals, then added the sentiment with glue on the one end and a dimensional trimmed down to size on the overhanging end. I added three Purple Fine Shimmer Gems near the sentiment for a glitzy touch.

Stampin' Up! Perennial Lavender Here for you, card inside

For the inside of the card, I used the other floral die cut and adhered it with liquid glue to the Basic White panel. I took the rest of the stamped sentiment from the card front & cut it apart, added it to a same pattern DSP as the large front panel, trimmed it to a unique shape and adhered it with liquid glue.

Stampin’ Up! More Fun with Nature’s Sweetness Suite

Posted on January 26, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

I couldn’t help myself – I simply HAD to play some more with the Lovely & Sweet Bundle + the Notes of Nature Bundle – and created today’s card. The Notes of Nature bundle has some very interesting stamps in it – perfect for creating an interesting background for a card or sentiments inside while the Lovely & Sweet stamp set has totally different images. I love how they work together! We made this card in card class yesterday and it’s interesting how folks react to having to use various stamps for a background as opposed to DSP. They really liked their card, but it took a different type of creativity to make it.

Stampin' Up! Monochromatic Nature's Sweetness Suite

I used Pebbled Path and Pecan Pie inks to create the background for this card on Thick Basic White card stock. I then took dies from both Lovely & Sweet Dies AND Notes of Nature Dies to die cut images from the Nature’s Sweetness SDSP. I also die cut the long leaf image from Vellum Basics SDSP. The sentiment is stamped in Pecan Pie ink on a Basic White scrap and adhered to Pecan Pie card stock then added to the card with dimensionals. For a final touch on the card front, I added the Adhesive-Backed Cork Dots, then a bow tied from Baker’s Twine Essential Pack in a Crumb Cake color with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Monochromatic Nature's Sweetness Suite card inside

For the inside of the card, I stamped the ‘notebook’ type image in Pebbled Path ink, then the sentiment in Pecan Pie ink on a Basic White insert, then attached that to the inside of the card. This turned out to be a very monochromatic card, which was not my goal when I initially made it – but I like the final outcome.

Stampin' Up! Monochromatic Nature's Sweetness card & envelope

For the envelope… a piece of Pebbled Path from the Nature’s Sweetness SDSP pack for the flap, trimmed to fit. For the front of the envelope, a leaf image stamped in Pebbled Path ink using the Notes of Nature stamp set.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Sweetness Suite Notebook Cover

Posted on January 24, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Wednesday – midweek and I hope it’s going well. Our snow is almost gone but it is still quite cold out. We had a gloriously sunny day yesterday. Ok – doubt you need to hear all that – let’s see what we worked on…

Stampin' Up! Nature's Sweetness Suite Notebook Cover

This is a new suite of products for me – sort of first time playing – and I love this suite! It’s called Nature’s Sweetness Suite. This suite will make marvelous masculine cards, but also can be more feminine. I used the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog for a bit of inspiration – pages 40-43 and this notebook right at my fingertips. It was a bonus for attending OnStage@ Home convention this just fancied it up a bit. One of the things I like to do is use product on items I use at home all the time – like notebooks. They become less ordinary and inspire me in different way.s. I decorate Composition Notebooks all the time and give them away. Folks use them for journaling or note-taking and seem to enjoy a little special notebook. This one is for me :O) and I loved working with the stamps, dies, Fancy Leather Trim and the Adhesive-Backed Cork Dots. The Designer Series Paper – Nature’s Sweetness SDSP – is just gorgeous. What makes it special – patterns of gold on one side!!!

For this project I’m not going to give measurements as the notebook you use is probably going to be different. I used two of the Nature’s Sweetness SDSP for the front, then pulled out the stamps & dies from the two sets in the suite: Notes of Nature stamp set and Notes of Nature Dies + Lovely & Sweet stamp set and it’s coordinating Lovely & Sweet Dies. I also pulled out the Vellum Basic SDSP to do the long leaf die cut – Notes of Nature Bundle. It has such wonderful detail! I also die cut some leaves from Pebbled Path card stock – in keeping with the colors of the Nature’s Sweetness SDSP. I stamped the very front image using Pecan Pie ink – and the stamp & die from the Lovely & Sweet Bundle. Please note the tabs on the side of the notebook – so fun… they are die cut using a die from the Notes of Nature Dies! LOVE that I can do this too. The tabs were die cut from scraps of the Nature’s Sweetness SDSP. I backed each one with Basic White card stock for strength.

When you purchase from this Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog, there are bonus products to choose from in the Jan-Feb 2024 Sale-a-Bration Catalog with qualifying orders.

Stampin’ Up! Detailed Dogwood Hello Card

Posted on January 22, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Good morning! Another day, another week :O) and just a bit longer days – yay! I have this super sweet Detailed Dogwood stamp that is a free item as part of the Jan-Feb 2024 Sale-a-Bration. Let’s look…

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Hello card, front

To know what size Basic White for the very front of the card, I started by die cutting a frame with the Perennial Postage Dies. The Old Olive layer was determined after coloring the dogwood. I stamped the dogwood in Memento ink on a 2 7/8 x 4 1/8 panel and colored it with Stampin’ Blends Flirty Flamingo, Lemon Lolly and Old Olive. The sentiment is stamped in Memento ink from Softly Sophisticated stamp set – another FREE ITEM as part of Jan-Feb Sale-a-Bration. I then adhered it to an Old Olive panel 3 x 4 1/4, then to the Perennial Postage die cut frame. I ran a Basic White panel (4 x 5 1/4) through the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder and adhered that to a Thick Basic White card base (4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2). As a final touch, I added three Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins in Petal Pink. This card has a very feminine & friendly look.

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Hello card inside

For the inside… anopther image from the Detailed Dogwood stamp set was stamped in Memento ink on the Basic White panel (4 x 5 1/4). Again, it was colored in Stampin’ Blends Flirty Flamingo, Lemon Lolly and Old Olive. This was adhered to an Old Olive piece slightly larger and into the inside of the card. Love the softness.

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Hello card & envelope

Stampin' Up! Detailed Dogwood Hello card & envelope back

Using yet another stamp in this Detailed Dogwood stamp set, I stamped the dragonfly in Memento ink, both on the envelope front & envelope back.

The Detailed Dogwood stamp is a FREE ITEM during Sale-a-Bration with a qualified purchase.

Stampin’ Up! Doggone Friends Note

Posted on January 21, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

I had such fun working on this card. For one thing, I’m a dog lover and this stamp, Doggone Friends, just makes me smile. It’s single large stamp in the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog. I used the Notes of Nature stamp set (also from that catalog) to create the sentiment and taped off a portion to use just the part I needed.

Here’s the scoop:

* Thick Basic White 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2
* Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 run through the Basics 3D embossing Folder (ONLINE EXCLUSIVE), Cross Hatch – adhere to card base front
* Stamp Doggone Friends image on Basic White with Memento ink; trim to 2 3/4 x 4 1/4
* Add stamped image to Crumb Cake card stock – 2 7/8 x 4 3/8; then to Basic Black card stock 3 x 4 1/2
* Wrap with Black Twine from Basic Twine Essentials Pack, twice around and tie bow. Secure bow with glue dot.
* Add these to card front with dimensionals.
* Using 2″ Circle Punch (ONLINE EXCLUSIVE), punch a Vellum circle; add over twine with mini dimensionals
* Stamp sentiment from Notes of Nature stamp set in Memento ink, taping off the rest of the sentiment. Adhere to Vellum with Stasmpin’ Seal
* Add Classic Matte Dots for embellishment

Stampin' Up! Doggone Friends card, inside

For the inside…Trim remaining piece from original stamping to fit Basic White panel (4 x 5 1/4). Mine is about 1 1/4 as I wanted full dog faces to show!

Stampin' Up! Doggone Friends card & envelope

For the envelope… A bit of Zany Zoo DSP for the envelope as I wanted to stick with the black & white idea :O) For the front, I cut another section of the remaining stamped piece of Doggone Friends for the card front and adhered it in place with Stampin’ Seal. And that was it! I LOVE THIS CARD!!!! It’s friendly, can be used for a man or woman and for all kinds of occasions. The other part is, change the colors, use just about any DSP in lieu of the stamped panel, use ribbon instead of twine. It’s a fabulous layout.

Stampin’ Up! Big Hugs with Perennial Postage

Posted on January 6, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Saturday – shop, shop, shop til you drop. Have you done all that? The Stampin’ Up! Mini Catalog and Sale-a-Bration catalogs went live Jan 4. If you do not have those catalogs or a demonstrator, please reach out to me and we’ll get those to you ‘likety split’.

My card today is another one of those that can be used for several different occasions: love you, thinking of you, congratulations, feel better soon, even Valentines – all that.

Stampin' Up! Big Hugs w/ Perennial Postage

To make this card, I used a Sweet Sorbet card base and covered the front with this wonderful stripe from Bee Mine DSP. I then die cut the Basic White with Scallop Contour Dies and cut another coordinating panel of Bee Mine DSP to fit inside the ‘stitch’ lines of the die cut. These were both adhered to the card front with liquid glue. With the Stitched Shape Dies, I created a circle from Basic White. I punched the heart using the Country Bouquet Punch ‘cuz I like the shape of the heart :O). I stamped the sentiment first with VersaMark then sprinkled it with white embossing powder then heat set it. The sentiment comes from Perennial Postage stamp set. I adhered this with liquid glue to the circle and the circle to the card front with dimensionals. I tied a double bow with White Bakers Twine and attached it with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Big Hugs w/ Perennial Postage, inside

For the inside… I had a scrap of the stripe from Bee Mine DSP and simply added it to the top of the Basic White panel, then punched several hearts – again with the Country Bouquet Punch. The Basic White heart is from a scrap that had been embossed with the Tile 3D embossing folder and i really liked how it made the heart sort of ‘come alive’. These were adhered with liquid glue and the inside was complete.

Stampin' Up! Perennial Postage card & envelope

For the envelope, another punched heart with the Country Bouquet Punch for the envelope front and another piece of the stripe from Bee Mine DSP for the flap – and done!

Stampin’ Up! Perennial Lavender Suite

Posted on January 4, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

TODAY’S THE DAY… the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog AND the Jan-Feb 2024 Sale-a-Bration Catalog go LIVE. Whoopie! So here’s my card today, showcasing Painted Lavender Bundle and Perennial Postage AND the Perennial Lavender DSP– all are part of a suite of products found on pages 22-25.

I’ve used several of the suite products to make this card… Softly Sophisticated embossing folder is a FREE item in the Sale-a-Bration catalog with a qualifying purchase. It’s the background for this card and I love the delicate imprint. The next layer is a Crumb Cake piece die cut with the Scalloped Contours Dies. On that is Gorgeous Grape card stock, cut to fit inside the stitched lines of the die cut. Then of course is this stunning DSP – Perennial Lavender DSP, cut just a wee bit smaller. These three layers were adhered together and added to the Thick Basic White card base and embossing folder with dimensionals. I then die cut three ‘stems’: the largest from Lost Lagoon card stock, and the two smaller in Gorgeous Grape & Basic White. These dies come from Perennial Lavender Dies and were attached with liquid glue. I pulled out the Deckled Rectangle Dies to cut another piece of Crumb Cake for the sentiment. The stamped sentiment comes from Perennial Postage stamp set & is stamped in Crumb Cake ink. Before adhering the sentiment with dimensionals, I tied a large bow using the Woven Metallic Ribbon in Orchid Oasis and attached it with a glue dot and the sentiment panel goes right over it. I like the sparkle of the ribbon and how the shades of purple flow together and compliment one another. I think I’m going to have to add a few of the Purple Fine Shimmer Gems that are part of this suite!

Stampin' Up! Perennial Lavender Suite card, inside

For the inside… on a Basic White panel I stamped the sentiment in Crumb Cake ink slightly off-center (from Perennial Postage stamp set), then stamped the lovely floral bouquet (from Painted Lavender stamp set) in stamped off Highland Heather ink. This creates a wonderfully feminine effect that coordinates with the feminine front of the card.

Stampin' Up! Perennial Lavender Suite card & envelope

For the envelope, I stamped the same floral bouquet from Painted Lavender stamp set in stamped off Highland Heather ink on the envelope front. Love, love – and hope you do as well.

The sentiments used for this card make it an all occasion card that can be used for thinking of you to birthday greeting to missing you. I really like this flexibility!

OK – how to get these…. the suite number is 162613 or items can be ordered separately. Unless there is something I really, realloy don’t want in a suite of prodcuts, I usually order the full suite – one number does it all. And just so you know, there is no advantage other than inputting one number as opposed to several numbers on the order form. The bottom price is the same.

If you do not have a demonstrator and need a catalog, I can remedy that :O) Just let me know!

Stampin’ Up! Meandering Meadows DSP with Frame

Posted on December 24, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

It’s Christmas Eve morning and excitement is in the air! Before I get too far into my post and the card of the day, let me say thank you to those who follow my blog, post comments, purchase from me, are on my team – all that. Stampin’ Up! has afforded me the opportunity to share my creativity in a whole new way and I so appreciate all of you for sharing in my journey. So, thank you.

Family arrives later today for several days and I will be taking a bit of a break while they are here. I want my focus to be on them and not running to my computer to check for messages concerning this paper crafting business. Yes, each of you is important but family is a priority while they are here – thank you for understanding.

I had this Meandering Meadows DSP on my desk still and couldn’t help but continue playing with it. This time I added this wonderful ‘frame’ that is part of the Garden Meadows Dies. It is die cut from Very Vanilla card stock and added to the DSP with dimensionals. The DSP is adhered to Melon Mambo card stock just slightly larger and that is attached to a Blueberry Bushel card base with dimensionals. I added three Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies buzzing around the flowers for a bit of ‘meadow feeling’.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment in Basic Gray ink on a Very Vanilla panel, then the flowers at the bottom in Garden Green ink. This is a precious stamp! The Very Vanilla panel is added to another Melon Mambo piece just slightly larger then into the inside of the card base – and done!

Stampin' Up! Garden Meadows card & envelope

On the envelope I adhered the remaining piece of the Meandering Meadows 6×6 piece, just turned it to the other side. Then stamped that same sweet flower bunch in Garden Green ink on the front.

This set can be found in the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES of the Stampin’ Up! store – which you may find right here: Garden Meadows stamp set & dies, Meandering Meadows DSP AND the Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies & Birds elements. The card stock, envelopes and inks are all part of the Annual catalog which may be found here.
