Stampin’ Up! Earthen Textures Bundle

Posted on August 2, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good morning sweet folks. It’s mid-week and a gorgeous 58 degree morning. This is pretty surprising since a week ago it remained between 87-92 at night. This cool is quite a reprieve. My card today uses a ‘new to me’ bundle that’s been sitting on my desk begging for use.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Masculine card

My card base is Copper Clay 4 1/4 x 11 and scored at 5 1/2. I’ve added a mat of Gray Granite 4 x 5 1/4 and a layer of Earthen Elegance 3 7/8 x 5 1/8 to the card front. I cut a strip of Gray Granite 3/4 x 4 1/4 and added it about 2″ from the bottom. Then I got busy die cutting using the Earthen Textures Dies: more Earthen Elegance DSP for some “grasses”; Rose Gold Specialty DSP for two fronds and the ‘xx’ pattern on the strip, and this gorgeous large leaf in Very Vanilla. Once these pieces were die cut, I began layering: the two ‘xx’ patterns were adhered to the strip – one on each end; the two grasses (one of them trimmed), then the fronds and finally the large leaf (this on dimensionals). I tied a bow with Bakers Twine Essential Pack in gray and attached it with liquid glue to the large leaf. While this was drying, I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark ink then sprinkled White Embossing Powder over it and heat set – all on a strip of Copper Clay 1 x 3. The sentiment comes from Earthen Textures stamp set. I die cut with one of the Stylish Shapes Dies and adhered it with double dimensionals over the large leaf & bow. And the front was complete.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Elegance Masculine card inside

For the inside: Copper Clay ink and one of the wonderful leaf stamps from Earthen Textures stamp set, stamped on a Very Vanilla panel (3 7/8 x 5 18) and adhered to a Gray Granite 4 x 5 1/4 and added to the cards inside.

Stampin' Up! Earthen Textures Masculine card & envelope

The envelope got more of the Earthen Elegance DSP on the flap and the same leaf stamp from Earthen Textures stamp set in Copper Clay ink on the front. This would make an elegant masculine card!

I have to say, I don’t know why I waited so long to play with this bundle. It’s gorgeous. The dies, die cut so cleanly and they are delicate yet more than that. And the leaves, fronds – love, love.

Stampin’ Up! Center Step Fold Card with One Horse Open Sleigh DSP

Posted on July 17, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Monday morning. I’ve been playing with an ONLINE EXCLUSIVE product, part of the One Horse Open Sleigh suite. I wanted to create another ‘scene’ kind of card and had not done this Center Step fun fold in a while – and thought, why not?

Stampin' Up! One Horse Open Sleigh DSP, Center Step fold

The card base is Boho Blue, mats are Misty Moonlight. The DSP layers are from the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP pack, and I used a couple of different ones which you’ll see as you look at photos. The very fun snowflakes are from this suite of products and they are Adhesive-Backed Snowflake Assortment in copper, gold and white. I added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel in the center of each snowflake. The ribbon is Night of Navy 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon. It’s best to add the layers to the card base prior to adding the center step fold.

I began by cutting my DSP center step panel as the focus of the card, adhered it to the mat for that panel and the mat to the center step. (HINT: I cut my DSP piece at 4″ , cut the focus panel out and used each remaining side piece for the side panels, trimmed to proper size.)

Center step base:
- Boho Blue, 3 x 6 and scored at 4 1/4 on the long side
Center step mat:
- Misty Moonlight 2 7/8 x 4 1/8
Center step DSP:
- 2 3/4 x 4

Create the card base: Boho Blue 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, score @ 3, 6, and 7. Burnish with 3″ score line as a mountain fold, the 6″ score as a valley fold and the 7″ score another mountain.

Stampin' Up! Center step fold card, side view

Attach side panels on middle section allowing for narrow edge (1/16″):

Misty Moonlight mat 2 7/8 x 1 1/8 (Cut 2)
DSP 2 3/4 x 1 (Cut 2, using the remaining pieces from the initial removal of the focal panel; one from each side piece so the flow of the design carries to both sides. :O)

Add inside pieces. This is where you write your message :O)

Misty Moonlight mat 2 7/8 x 5 3/8
Basic White 2 3/4 x 5 1/4 (I added a strip of the DSP 5/8 x 2 7/8 and a copper Adhesive-Backed Snowflake & Rhinestone Basic Jewel)

Add center step fold (the 6 x 3 scored piece) to the very bottom of the card front, but do not attach the back of this panel just yet. Add bottom side panels to either side.

Misty Moonlight mat 1 1/8 x 1 3/8 (cut 2)
DSP 1 x 1 1/4
Wrap with ribbon (Night of navy 3/8 Border Ribbon) and adhere in back with glue dot.
Slip another length under the front piece and tie a knot; adhere at knot with glue dot; trim ends

Close card with center step fold folded over and laying on back of card. Add glue to adhere to card back. (I added liquid glue at the edge of the fold of the card back and at the end of the center step fold back.)

Add Misty Moonlight mat 2 7/8 x 5 3/8
Add DSP 2 3/4 x 5 1/4

Stampin' Up! Center Step Fold card & envelope with One Horse Open Sleigh DSP

For the envelope, I added more of the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to the flap, trimmed to fit and that was it, no extra pattern or stamp on the envelope front.

Stampin’ Up! Countryside Blossoms Fun Fold for the Happy Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

Posted on July 13, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Thursday morning. Is it HOT where you are? It is HOT here… and the humidity makes it difficult to breathe. Ugh… Having said all that, this is a sunshiny kind of card. It’s just fresh looking and clean. And pretty much monochromatic. Did this tease you a bit? Hope so!

Stampin' Up! Countryside Blossoms Fun Fold

I began by cutting a length of card stock 4 x 10 and scoring it at 2 1/2 at each end. With the card stock still folded, with the largest die in the Countryside Dies, die cut this piece. The die will hang over a bit on each folded end – this is good! This actually creates the fun fold :O). With the next to largest die, die cut another Basic White piece and emboss it with the Countryside Blossoms Embossing Folder. There IS a CENTER point to the embossing folder, a main flower. Use that to center the panel you are embossing.

Stampin' Up! Countryside Blossoms fun fold.2

Attach this embossed piece to the left front fold of the fun fold panel. I chose to decorate this embossed piece just a bit. I had in my stash, a flower already created. It was made with dies from the Paper Florist Dies, Basic White and Crushed Curry card stock. Is this a sweet flower or what! I then added these small Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels, four on each side, on a bump of the embossing. And the front was done.

Stampin' Up! Countryside Dies Fun Fold.2

For the inside… with Wild Wheat card stock, I used the 2nd largest die from Countryside Dies to cut a panel and centered it on the inside of the fun fold. I stamped the sentiment in Memento ink on a Basic White panel and die cut this with the third largest die from Countryside Corners Dies. Another flower was on my desk created using the Paper Florist Dies and I attached it to the card. It used Basic White and Crushed Curry card stock.

I felt this card needed a back as it was only about 3 1/2 x 5 and might get lost in the envelope. I added a piece of the Fresh as a Daisy DSP to a Wild Wheat piece (both 4 1/4 x 5 1/2) and centering the fun fold, added it to the new card base. YAY!

Stampin' Up! Countryside Blossoms Fun Fold.3

For the envelope, I added more of the same Fresh as a Daisy DSP, then stamped the sentiment in Wild Wheat ink. This card can now be used as a thank you, a special occasion, a thinking of you, just about any reason :O)

Now, time to HOP on over to see what others have created. Click the ‘next’ button or click on a name.

Stampin’ Up! Delightfully Eclectic Card Gift Bag

Posted on July 3, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

It’s Tuesday July 3 – and a blueberry picking day! We love blueberries and this is the right time of year… they are ripe and we are ready to go. We freeze most of them to have this first picking. Then we pick more and make muffins or pancakes or cobblers or jus eat the fresh to our hearts content.

Today’s post has nothing to do with blueberries :O). It’s a card gift bag.

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic Card Gift Bag

The card is made with Delightfully Eclectic DSP and Basic Black card stock for the sides, bottom and handles. The label is Basic Black and Basic White, stamped with the Countryside Corners stamp set. Here are the dimensions:

Designer Series Paper: 6 x 4 1/2, cut 2
Coordinating card stock 3 x 6 (bottom panel) scored on both long sides @ 1/2″
same coordinating card stock 3 x 5, cut 2 (side panels), score on three sides @ 1/2″. Mark center on remaining short side and score from that mark to the right bottom corner where score lines meet. Score again from that same center mark to the bottom left corner where score lines meet.
Burnish all score lines
Trim bottom corners of side panels at angle – see photo below

Directions:

Add Tear n tape to the 1/2″ score lines on all pieces, adding it to the scored edge, close to the score line.
Attach DSP panels first, then side panels as shown.

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic Card Gift bag.2

Do one side at a time, removing tape of bottom side panel and attaching it to the bottom panel, then attach that same side panel to the DSP piece
Now do the same to the other side

Handles:

Cut 4 handles and adhere two together for strength. Here I used the Countryside Corners Dies to create the handles

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic Card Gift bag.3

Add Tear n Tape to the bottom portion of each handle and attach to each inside of the DSP see photo above
Decorate as desired:
- Ribbon used: Satin Edged Ribbon & Baker’s Twine Essential Pack in white for bow
- Basic Black and the Countryside Corners Dies for label
- Basic White and Countryside Corners stamp and Countryside Corners smallest die
Fill with decorated cards to gift :O)

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic Card Gift bag complete

The label allows you the freedom to write in a name for the gift of goodies. And I guess you wouldn’t have to fill with cards, but could fill with just about anything. Just be careful the items aren’t too heavy! :O)

If you had a new team member, this would be a nice gift to fill with various adhesives – or as a hostess gift for someone hosting a party.

BONUS DAYS! Because do you know what’s a great deal? Getting rewarded for all the crafting supplies you’re already going to buy!

Stampin’ Up! Dan’s Fun Fold

Posted on June 9, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Friday morning. I have an easy card for you today, that my grandson Dan made for his Dad for Father’s Day. Remember, I have limited supplies with me (only three stamp sets!) so no Happy Father’s Day stamp. I know… I should have planned better. Here’s his card.

I cut and scored the papers, he did everything else, including choosing the sentiments. I really like this card and know his Dad will too. Basic White Thick card stock for the card base, scored at 2 1/4 and 5 1/2. The 5 1/2 score is a valley fold and the 2 1/4 a mountain fold. it looks like this.

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made Fun Fold side view

This could be an easel card, but it isn’t :O) The three card front panels are adhered together and attached to the upper panel, making certain the adhesive is only on the upper portion. The sentiment is stamped in Memento ink on a Basic White scrap using the Layered Leaves stamp set & die cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies. It was attached with dimensionals. The embellishments are the 2023-2024 In Color Dots in Moody Mauve.

For the inside… The sentiment was stamped in Memento ink using the Layered Leaves stamp set ~ on a Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 panel. This was adhered in place and the 1 1/4 strip were added in various widths – Dan’s idea! I really like how it carries that DSP throughout the card.

Oh, and the DSP at the top of the card… I forgot to mention that. It’s 3 1/8 x 4 1/4. You can also see I took the photo AFTER he wrote on it… I didn’t think it was appropriate to share his thoughts here. His Dad is in hospital right now and it’s likely the kids won’t be with him on Father’s Day. Here’s another photo of the card.

Stampin’ Up! Delightfully Eclectic & Circle Sayings for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on May 25, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I’ve a cheerful card for you today using the sketch challenge.

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic w/ Circle Sayings

You can see I took some liberties with the sketch by first turning it sideways :O) and the center panel is off-set. I think it still works. Here’s what I did… I die cut the Delightfully Eclectic DSP (stripe) on with the largest of the Deckled Rectangle Dies and layered it on a piece of Misty Moonlight, just slightly larger. Both of these were added to the Thick Basic White card base. I took another piece of the Delightfully Eclectic DSP (the small floral print) and die cut it with a smaller die of the Deckled Rectangles Dies and adhered it to Misty Moonlight panel just a bit larger. I put dimensionals on these and attached them to the card front. I stamped this fun image from Circle Sayings stamp set in Memento ink and colored it with Stampin’ Blends: both Light & Dark Daffodil Delight for the sun and a mix of Pool Party and Light Balmy Blue for the ocean waves. I die cut this with the one of the circles from Stylish Shapes Dies. Before adding it to the card front, I cut a length of the Textured Ribbon in wild Wheat, folded it over and attached it with a couple of glue dots. The fun sun image was then added over this with dimensionals. The part that is off the smaller rectangle has two dimensionals together to make it even. The final touch was three In Color Dots in Wild Wheat.

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic and Circle Sayings, inside

For the inside… I stamped the sentiment from Circle Sayings stamp set in Misty moonlight ink, then added a strip of the Delightfully Eclectic DSP to the bottom. Notice it also has a Deckled Rectangle edge at the bottom of it :O). It was a scrap from die cutting the larger rectangle. This was added to a panel of Misty Moonlight, also die cut with the Deckled Rectangle Dies, then onto the inside of the card base.

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic and Circle Saying card & envelope

For the envelope, more of this same stripe from Delightfully Eclectic DSP added to the flap. Notice it too has a deckled edge to it :O) On the front, another sentiment from Circle Sayings stamp set stamped in Misty Moonlight. This card is going to a dear friend who fell recently and is struggling with pain. She is an amazing organist and individual and I wanted to send something light-hearted and cheerful to lighten her spirits.

I do hope you will take the time to make the rounds of the blog hop of this fun group. I’m always amazed at the variety and talent shared. You may click on the ‘next’ button or click on a name to visit a particular blog.

Stampin’ Up! Cheerful Daisies on Pecan Pie

Posted on May 23, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Not long ago I had a card class and we made a card with the Cheerful Daisies bundle. The background for all the cards were from Glorious Gingham DSP. The card I shared with you was done on Blueberry Bushel and it really made the daisies pop. I had an extra left over, but this time in Pecan Pie, so I made that one up as well – and that’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Cheerful Daisies on Pecan Pie

Isn’t this pretty? I used the Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends for two of the flower centers and an actual piece of Daffodil Delight card stock for the largest flower. You can see the Blends is slightly darker, so a nice contrast. Behind the leaves is Granny Apple Green card stock. The greeting comes from Go-to Greetings stamp set and was stamped in Pecan Pie on the Basic White strip. A little Linen bow was added for fun and Wild Wheat dots from the 2023-2025 In Color Dots pack. The vellum is from Vellum Basics and is a 2″ wide strip.

Stampin' Up! Cheerful Daisies on Pecan Pie, inside

For the inside of this card, I stamped this partial daisy from Cheerful Daisies stamp set in Bubble Bath, then the center in stamped off Daffodil Delight ink. I should have maybe stamped the flower in daisy Delight and the center in Pecan Pie – – – but I didn’t.

More of the Glorious Gingham on the envelope flap and the same stamped daisy from Cheerful Daisies stamp set on the envelope front: Bubble Bath ink for the petals and stamped off Daffodil Delight for the center. If you want to see the card on Blueberry Bushel -here’s a link to the Blueberry Bushel post. Love this bundle of Cheerful Daisies and the Glorious Gingham DSP together!

Stampin’ Up! Masterfully Made Suite

Posted on May 16, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Oh goodness, I just played with a new suite of products and didn’t want to quit… This Majestically Made DSP is just beautiful: love the colors and the variety of patterns. And the Majestically Made stamp set & dies are beautiful. I chose to make a top fold card using the Lost Lagoon card stock and Lemon Lime Twist for contrast.

I cut a panel of DSP 4 x 5 and made five 1 x 4 pieces. I added these to a 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 panel of Lemon Lime Twist While this ribbon is not part of the suite of products found on pages 102-103 in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, I decided a simple fold over and adhered with a couple of glue dots. I die cut this gorgeous leaf using the Masterfully Made Dies and lemon Lime Twist card stock. I adhered the leaf in place with glue dots as well. I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink on a scrap of the Masterfully Made DSP and die cut it with the banner die from Masterfully Made Dies. I added it over the ribbon & die cut leaf with dimensionals. For final touch I added three Adhesive-Backed Sequins Trio in White – also a part of this suite. This entire panel was added to the Lost Lagoon card stock with dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made Suie, inside

For the inside of the card, I used Lost Lagoon ink and the Masterfully Made stamp set and randomly stamped the ‘wording’ stamp in second generation ink. I then stamped the large leaf from the same stamp set in the same second generation manner with Lost Lagoon ink. I adhered this to a panel of Lemon Lime Twist, then into the inside of the Lost Lagoon card base.

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made card & envelope.2

For the envelope… a left over piece of the Masterfully Made DSP for the flap and for the front, more of the stamped off ‘words’ in Lost Lagoon ink from the Masterfully Made stamp set. And the set was done. Love it!

I’m not sure how Stampin’ Up! does it, but the Designer Series Papers seem to get better & better and… I have learned to USE THEM not HOARD THEM :O) One of my problems though, is I want to just play with one set at a time and there are so many new ones I haven’t played with yet!!! Ah, time.

Stampin’ Up! Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on May 11, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

We have a sketch challenge for this week and I’m excited to share a couple of new porducts from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Sketch Challenge

Stampin' Up! Inked Botanicals card front

This card uses the Inked Botanicals DSP, the Inked & tiled stamp set AND the Timeless Arrangements Dies. I’ve mixed some colors together that I would not normally do – – and like it.

I pulled out this fun pattern of DSP from the Inked Botanicals, then started die cutting images using the Timeless Arrangements Dies in Lost Lagoon (love this new color!) Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry and I pulled in a bit of Basic White as well. I stamped the sentiment from Inked & Tiled in Lost Lagoon on a Very Vanilla scrap and die cut it with the Timeless Arrangements Dies. I adhered the layers of springs and sprays together with liquid glue, attached the sentiment as well then set about doing the rest. The DSP is cut 3 x 4, the Crushed Curry at 3 1/4 x 4 1/2 and added those two together with liquid glue. I put dimensional on the back of those two pieces and adhered them to the Lost Lagoon card base. The sentiment and sprays were added with dimensionals along the bottom of the sentiment and a bit of liquid glue for the upper section.

Stampin' Up! Inked Botanicals w/ Inked & Tiled stamp set

For the inside, I used a Very Vanilla panel 4 x 5 1/4 and stamped it with Crushed Curry ink and one of the flowers from Inked & Tiled stamp set, adhered it into the card and voila – card is complete.

Stampin' Up! Inked Botanicals card/ envelope

For the envelope, more of the Inked Botanicals for the flap and the same flower for the envelope front, just this time in Crushed Curry & Calypso Coral inks. Such a fun, lively card. – and my daughter is going to love it. It goes out today!!!

Stampin’ Up! Color Challenge for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on May 4, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

I have removed the links below but wanted you to see the challenge – and of course, my card..

Stasmpin' Up! Color Challenge for the Happy Inkin' Thursday hop

Stampin' Up! Cheerful Daisies for the hop 5/4

I started with a card base of Copper Clay and added a layer of Wild Wheat. Adhered to that is a Designer Series Paper layer of Fresh as a Daisy with the Moody Mauve side up. The top two layers are Wild Wheat & the Moody Mauve background of the Fresh As a Daisy DSP. Together, those were added with dimensionals. Next – die cutting the daisy using the Cheerful Daisy Dies in Basic White, two layers, and attaching them together with dabs of glue. I used the Light Wild Wheat Blends to add color to the center, then attached the daisy to the card front with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from Cheerful Daisy stamp set in Moody Mauve ink on a strip of Bubble Bath and slipped under the mounted daisy with a bit of glue on the backside. I added two die cuts of the branchy/twiggy thing, one in Wild Wheat and the other in Basic White. Because they are so thin, I added those with a coupler of glue dots. For a final touch, I added three Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots.

Stampin' Up! Cheerful Daisies, inside card

For the inside, a layer of Wild Wheat was added to the card base. I then stamped the Basic White panel with this pretty daisy from the Cheerful Daisy stamp set in Bubble Bath ink. I didn’t think I would like this color combination, but I really do :O) The Bubble Bath is really a sweet shade of pink.

Stampin' Up! Cheerful Daisies card & envelope

For the envelope, more of the Moody Mauve from the Fresh As A Daisy DSP for the flap. For the envelope front, a single sweet daisy from the Cheerful Daisy stamp set in Bubble Bath ink.
