Here’s a photo of a card/ envelope & the inside made with the Irresistible Blooms Suite. You can my post here.

Isn’t this stunning? The stamps, dies, DSP and the embellishments are some of the best yet.

Stampin’ Up! has some really fun & interesting kits available as well. And again, if you join my team, these are also available at that 20% discount.

OK, time for me to sign out for now. Our beloved English Springer Spaniel is having a major health crisis and hubby & I are pulling ourselves together for that final goodbye. I’m telling you, this is not going to be easy. He’s a gem of a family pet and we’re struggling – not going to lie about it. He’s gentle and loving and made me his ALPHA. He’s been beside me no less than two feet away for a very long time, often lying on my feet or touching me if he could. Today is not a happy day… so bear with me.

Tell those you love, you love them. Hold them tight and be thankful, grateful for their presence in your life.

And by the way, my site is under ‘reconstruction’, so be patient there too. 🄓

Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms

Good Saturday! I have a beautiful new bundle I worked with – an ONLINE EXCLUSIVE that I tried resisting, and couldn’t. šŸ˜€ It is stunning! It is called – of all things – Irresistible Blooms Suite and what comes in the suite is: stamp set, coordinating dies, gorgeous 6×6 DSP and Loose Frosted Dots in three colors. An older color is coming back – Lost Lagoon – and that shows in these papers. Another cool thing is the dies die cut the two sizes of flowers in the DSP as well as three leaf shapes. I’ve created a very feminine card with this suite. Let’s take a peek.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms

See that stunning flower? It’s die cut from one of the papers! And see the leaves under the flower and under the sentiment? Those are also die cut from the DSP. And isn’t that wreath fun? It’s one of the dies as well. The DSP under it all is one of the papers in the pack. It has these cute little bubbles same as the wreath. And see the Loose Frosted Dots? The Petal Pink ones are on the banner while the Soft Seafoam are in the wreath – and notice, three sizes too. They adhere with a tiny dot of adhesive. The sentiment is from the stamp set, stamped in Flirty Flamingo ink , a coordinating color of the DSP, and die cut with the smallest of the Deckled Rectangle Dies. The bow is Sating Edge Ribbon with Gold and added with a glue dot. I don’t know if you can see it in the photo, but I added Shimmery Crystal Effects to the flower on several of the white sections.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms, inside

The inside of the card is every bit as feminine: more of the DSP on the bottom of the white panel, a smaller die cut flower from the paper, three small leaves die cut as well. The Basic White panel overlays a Flirty Flamingo panel, same as the front, and adhered to the Thick Basic White card base.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms card & envelope

The DSP on the envelope flap is the back side of the DSP on the card front. I used the entire 6×6 sheet on this card! I was hoping you could see the Crystal Effects, but it doesn’t really show. Oh well… This suite of products will be available on March 1 and I encourage you get it! You will not regret the purchase. Stampin’ Up! is promoting an ONLINE EXCLUSIVE line of products that will not be included in any catalog, that will only be available as an ONLINE product. This is their premier showing of the first suite. March 1st I’ll be able to share more products that you will be able to order right then. It’s kind of exciting, this new idea.

Stampin’ UP! Scenic Garden, Sale-a-bration HOST Set

I finally pulled out my Scenic Garden stamp set ~ it’s a Sale-a-bration HOST set that I had fun playing. This particular stamp is right up my ally – I’m a gardener, I keep playing in the dirt. Of course, here in the Northeast, it’s not quite time yet to do much in the garden, but bulbs are beginning to pop out of the ground. So here’s my card…

Stampin' UP! Scenic Garden - HOST.1

Love these pots stacked upon one another! Wish I were better at coloring them. So here’s how I did this… I stamped this in Memento ink on a Basic White piece then colored it with Stampin’ Blends: Cajun Craze for the pots and a bit of Color Lifter to create a highlight; Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, a bit of Starry Sky & Orchid Oasis. Once colored I die cut the desired size with the third smallest of the Deckled Rectangle Dies. Then I created a mask for the bottom of the pots… with Stampin’ Up! Masking Paper: stamp on the Masking Paper, cut out the image, remove the backing & place it over the stamped image. It looked like this…

Stampin' Up! Scenic Garden with mask

The white part on the bottom pot is the mask – pretty cool, huh? I wanted to have the pots look as though they were sitting on rocks. I laid this small white panel on another Basic White that would go on the card front; stamped the stones in Memento ink then colored the stones with Gray Granite Blends.. I adhered a Basic Black panel to the small front panel then used my small Blending Brush & Gray Granite ink to add color around the stones, as if there was a path. I removed the mask & adhered this panel in place. In retrospect I should have run the larger piece through a Brick Embossing Folder – I think that would make a very cool backdrop. But I didn’t… and the white panel needed something. So butterflies – but not very big ones. I pulled out my Brilliant Wings Dies and found these two which seem the perfect size. I die cut these from 2022-2024 In Color 6×6 Glimmer Paper in Orchid Oasis. Then I sprinkled in a few Brushed Metallic Butterflies and liked the combination. The sentiment comes from Charming Sentiments stamp set and it’s stamped in Memento ink on a scrap, backed with Basic Black and adhered to the card front. The Basic White panel is adhered to Basic Black then to Daffodil Delight, put on dimensionals and attached to the Thick Basic White card base.

Stampin' Up! Scenic Garden, inside

For the inside I stamped these wild flowers in Memento ink then colored with Orchid Oasis & Old Olive Stampin’ Blends and attached the panel to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Scenic Garden card w/ envelope

For the envelope, I stamped the same flowers as the inside, but colored them in Daffodil Delight Blends, leaves are Old Olive. I’m not real happy with this card… guess I’ll need to do it again at some point, it’s just too plain. AARGH. Oh well. I do love the stamps.

Stampin’ Up! Beautifully Happy and Framed Florets Dies 3 Ways

Good Monday Morning! It’s President’s Day today. I do remember celebrating President’s Day as a youngster… and found it fascinating how the president’s accomplished what they did. Today, not so much – I’m not even going to go there. Let’s change the subject, shall we?

I have three cards for you today, all using the Beautifully Happy stamp set that is FREE during Sale-a-bration with a $50 order. And that freebie ends at end of day February 28. If you want this stamp set, now’s the time… do not wait, do not hesitate šŸ˜€

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy e Ways.1

All the cards are first stamped in Soft Suede ink and colored with Flirty Flamingo & stamped off Old Olive. I have used the same process for each envelope, changing out the bouquet for a single flower. The stamped floral pattern is also fussy cut in all the cards. On this first card, an additional bloom was fussy cut & added with a dab of liquid glue. Each of the stamped floral bouquets is added to the card front with dimensionals.

Card #1: This card uses Playing In the Rain DSP that was die cut with the Framed Florets Dies, added to a Basic White panel slightly larger then added to a thick Basic White card base.A leaf spray and a single leaf were added, die cut with more dies from the Framed Florets Dies. Adhesive-Backed Milky Dot were added: a Mango Melody for the flower center and four White. A Linen Thread bow was tied around the stem and secured with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 3 Ways.2

Card #2: This card began by die cutting a panel of Basic White with the Split Card Textures Dies, and adhering that to a smaller panel of Dandy Designs DSP, then adding it to the card front with dimesnionals. This DSP is also FREE with a $100 order during Sale-a-bration. Two leaf sprays were die cut with the Framed Florets Dies and added with liquid glue, then the floral bouquet added with dimensionals. Again, an Adhesive-Backed Milky Dot was added to the center flower, in Mango Melody. Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins in Petal Pink, were added for glam, and a Linen Thread bow was added with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 3 Ways.3

Card #3: This card began with a Basic White panel being run through the Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder and added directly to the Thick Basic White card base. Another die from Framed Florets was used to make the larger, more intricate die cut. A left over die cut oval from Playing in The Rain was added after placing the plain oval die cut in the center. This created a perfect frame for this card. Two additional leaf sprays were die cut from Basic White and a couple of the small leaves – all with the Framed Florets Dies. Three Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots were added plus a Linen Thread bow.

None of these cards has a sentiment on them, which means they can be used for any purpose necessary. A sentiment could have been added, but I really thought it would detract from the beautiful design.

For the inside of the card, I kept the design really simple for all three cards. A single flower stamped & colored the same as the envelope: Soft Suede for the outline, Flirty Flamingo for the flower, stamped off Old Olive for the leaves and a bit of Mango Melody for the stamped center.

Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy 3 ways.inside

I absolutely love these cards, and of course, the DSP could be changed out and the flowers colored to coordinate and it would look totally different. Such a breath of fresh air!

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Welcome to Thursday… and the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! We have a sketch challenge today and I’m using the Fragrant Flowers Bundle and the Favored Flowers DSP to create it.

Stampin' Up! Blog Hop sketch challenge
Stampin' Up! Fragrant Flowers Blog Hop.2/16.1

To make this card I took a panel of Dainty Flowers DSP and adhered it to the Blackberry Bliss card front. I then took a piece of Basic White card stock and ran it through the Split Card Textures Dies and adhered that over the DSP. I then die cut a couple of flowers from the Favored Flowers DSP using the Fragrant Flowers Dies. It is SO COOL when the dies coordinate with designer series papers. I also die cut two leaves from Evening Evergreen and buds from Fresh Freesia – all using the Fragrant Flowers Dies. The two larger flowers were added to the front with dimensionals, the lower flower adhered directly to the card front, and the buds and two leaves adhered directly as well. I stamped the sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink using the Fragrant Flowers stamp set on a piece of the Dainty Flowers DSP, then die cut it with a die from Fragrant Flowers Dies. That was added with liquid glue and dimensionals on the ends.For a final touch: Opaque Adhesive-Backed Gems in Gorgeous Grape and a fun Open Weave Ribbon bow in Evening Evergreen (this was added with a glue dot). Both the Dainty Flowers DSP AND the Favored Flowers DSP are FREE – each with a $50 order during Sale-a-bration!

Stampin' UP! Fragrant Flowers Blog Hop 2/16.2

For the inside, another set of flowers die cut from Favored Flowers DSP added to a panel of Basic White. The sentiment is stamped in Blackberry Bliss using a stamp from Fragrant Flowers stamp set. A single Opaque Adhesive-Backed Gem in Fresh Freesia was added.

Stampin' Up! Fragrant Flowers Blog Hop 2/16.3

The envelope… more Favored Flowers DSP to the flap trimmed to fit and a single flower die cut using the Fragrant Flowers Dies and the Favored Flowers DSP – now completed & ready to send. This card is going to a friend who has struggled with knee issue for over a year, just had meniscus surgery on one knee and anticipates the other knee in about a month. Let’s hope this works for her!

Now, time to hop along to see what the others have created. Use the ‘next’ button below or click on a name. Enjoy the hop!

Stampin’ Up! Happy Birthday for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop Group

Good Tuesday morning and HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! Appreciate your loved ones, all of them. Send them a note or give them a call, whatever works for you. It’s never too late to let folks know you care about them. Thank you for joining me today – remember, I care about you! And welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop Group!

Today’s card plays along with the challenge for this week – a birthday card. And it’s a Diamond Flip card that’s fun to do, and did I say easy?

Stampin' Up! Diamond Flip Fold.1

Gosh, the photo is a bit dark… but isn’t this a sweet card? Here’s a photo of it unfolded showing the outside.

Stampin' Up! Diamond Flip Fold.2

And here’s one of it folded showing the inside. Notice the diamond on the left is ‘flipped’, or folded.

Stampin' Up! Diamond Flip Fold.3

And one more photo… this one shows the front again, with the diamond fold to the inside. This way you clearly see how it’s all put together.

Stampin' Up! Diamond Flip Fold.4

Directions:

  • Cut card base (here I used Granny Apple Green) 4 1/4 x 11 and score at 2 1/8 & 5 1/2
  • On the 2 1/8 end, mark the center point, on the short side which happens to be 2 1/8.
  • Fold card in half – on the 5 1/2 score line
  • Cut from the 2 1/8 score line to the point mark on a diagonal, going through both layers.
  • Now do the other cut from 2 1/8 score line to point. By cutting both ends at the same time, this makes the ends exactly the same!
  • Cut a 3″ square, also from Granny Apple Green, and adhere to the 2 1/8 end, adhering just to score line. This allows that end to be flexible.And this is the end to be decorated.
    • Add a 2 7/8″ square, this time in a coordinating color or Basic White. I chose Textured Shimmer Paper in Balmy Blue
    • Stamp the floral image from True Beauty stamp set in Blushing Bride ink, then die cut with coordinating die from Organic Beauty Dies.
    • Stamp the leaves in Granny Apple Green ink using True Beauty stamp set. Die cut with coordinating die using Organic Beauty Dies
    • Adhere the floral image with dimensionals to the now diamond. Slip the leaves under this a bit and adhere with liquid glue.
    • Cut a banner 1/2 x 3 1/4 and stamp with sentiment from Sentimental Park stamp set, in Merry Merlot ink. Slip banner just under flower and adhere with liquid glue.
    • Add bow ribbon with glue dot: Twill Ribbon Combo Pack in Old Olive
    • Add Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins in Petal Pink (Jan-Apr Mini Catalog)
    • Cover floral image with Wink of Stella
  • Add Balmy Blue panel 3 1/4 x 4 1/8 to card front
  • Add Awash In Beauty DSP over Balmy Blue, 3 1/8 x 4 1/8

For the inside

  • Add a 3 1/8 x 4 panel of the Awash in Beauty DSP to the panel on left
  • Stamp the sentiment using Sentimental Park stamp set and Merry Merlot ink on the Basic White panel (3 1/8 x 4)
  • Stamp the flower in Blushing Bride ink using the True Beauty stamp set, cover in Wink of Stella then add more Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins in Petal Pink
  • Cut a 2 7/8 square from Awash in Beauty DSP, cut in half creating two triangles. Adhere to each inside end

This card fits perfectly in a regular size envelope and I forgot to take a photo! However… here’s what I did… Cut another piece of Awash in Beauty DSP 2 1/4 x 6, add to envelope flap & trim to fit. Stamp a floral image from True Beauty stamp set in Blushing Bride, adding a bit of Merry Merlot to the center with your finger or a sponge dauber, then stamp on front of envelope. Cover with Wink of Stella.

Can’t wait to see what you create with this Diamond Flip Card – please do share with me! Such a treat… Now, it’s time to move forward on the hop – or go to previous if you like. Use the appropriate ‘buttons’ below or click on a name to take you on to others. Enjoy – and HAPPY VALENTINES DAY again!

Stampin’ Up! Flap Front Fun Fold Birthday

I am smitten with the Rain or Shine Designer Series Paper and have made a fun birthday card with it. This is so super easy you will want to make one too.

Flap Front Fun Fold

This little fox is just so stinkin’ C-U-T-E! Look at that grin & that sassy walk. That little guy is die cut straight from the Rain or Shine DSP and die with the Layering Circles Dies. It’s back layer is Mango Melody die cut with the Layering Circles Dies, scallop. Ok, directions.

  • Card base is 8 1/2 x 5 1/4 scored at 4 1/4 and I used Balmy Blue
    • Remove 1″ from card base front & trim that strip to 3 1/2″, then score one end at 1″
    • Attach the short end of this strip to the card back with the score line at the edge – long end to the right
  • Add a 1 1/4 x 5 3/8 strip of DSP over top of strip – see the raindrop strip in photo, that’s it.
Stampin' Up! Flip Front Fun Fold.2
  • Attach the circle die cut to the long end of the strip. I wanted a nice ‘finish’ to the back side so die cut another circle with the Layering Circles Dies from Brights 6×6 DSP in Mango Melody & adhered it to the back side.
  • A panel of Basic White 2 3/4 x 5 3/8 is stamped with the birthday sentiment from Something Fancy stamp set in Memento ink. Adhere to inside of card.
  • Back to card front… Add a panel of Rain or Shine DSP to the card front – 3 1/8 x 5 3/8
  • Stamp a sentiment in Memento ink on a Basic White Scrap & die cut with the Stitched Rectangles Dies.
  • Add a Mango Melody strip behind it 5/8 x 2 1/4. This could be a length of ribbon instead, or a pice cut slightly larger than the sentiment panel. Add with dimensionals to the card front
  • I added three Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots in Mango Melody for a bit of bling.

Super easy card – and you could easily change it up… front flap embellished could be a square, a rectangle, a heart. All kinds of possibilities!

Stampin' Up! Flap Front Fun Fold.3

For the envelope… more of the Brights 6×6 DSP for the flap, trimmed to fit and another die cut from the Rain or Shine DSP, this time die cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies. A super fun card to send & receive!

Stampin’ Up! Dainty Flowers Slimline Thanks Card

Hello Friends! I have a fun, different card for you today ~ it’s a slimline card using the FREE Sale-a-bration DSP Dainty Flowers. It’s available with a $50 purchase, but only during Sale-a-bration, which ends Feb 28 ~ soon. I saw this card, I think from Mary Fish, and decided to make one myself. You could make this card with any Designer Series Papers.

Stampin' Up! Dainty Flowers Slimline

I used Old Olive card stock as my card base, 7 x 8 1/2 scored at 3 1/2, then cut another panel of Old Olive 3 1/4 x 8 1/4. I cut two pieces of the Dainty Flowers DSP 3 1/4 x 8 1/4, laid them together kind of catty-wampas – you know, crooked, and adhered them together. I placed them on the additional Old Olive panel, marked the left edge & trimmed it. I then placed that trimmed edge on the Paper Trimmer & cut it to 8 1/8 in length so it would have a straight top edge & fit on that Old Olive panel – then adhered it to the Old Olive panel and added it to the card front with dimensionals. I pulled out the Something Fancy Bundle to stamp the sentiment in Starry Sky ink and die cut it with this fun hexagon die from the Something Fancy Dies. Then I die cut another piece as a background from another piece of the Dainty Flowers DSP and using yet another die from Something Fancy Dies, then cut another from Basic White. The Basic White die cut I cut in half lengthwise and adhered behind the DSP die cut to create a bit of frame. This I attached to the card front with dimensionals. I put the hexagon sentiment piece also on dimensionals and added it to the panel. For a bit of bling I added three Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls then a baker’s twine bow from the 2022-2024 In Color Baker’s Twine package – in Starry Sky. This is a double bow. And the card front was done :O)

Stampin' Up! Dainty Flowers Slimline, inside

Remember those pieces I trimmed from the left edge? Here they are on the inside of the card, adhered to a Basic White 3 1/4 x 8 1/4 panel. And the card is d-o-n-e! Love this… and it would be a great style for a masculine card birthday or whatever. The envelope I us for this is from the Slimline Envelopes from the Annual catalog – just forgot to take photo!

If you would like to order from my online store, that’s really easy to do. And remember to use my current HOST CODE FDBTDY26 to earn credit from me. Here’s how it works… when you place an order of $50 or more (before shipping & taxes), you receive from me a SU! item valued up to $10 + Star-Studded Rewards.

You will still receive that FREE ITEM valued up to $10 from me + the Star-Studded Rewards. šŸ˜šŸ‘ Please note… I have had to remove card stock as a free item due to increased cost of mailing – ugh.

For every $50 that you order from my online store (before shipping & taxes) and when you add my current Host Code, you will earn 1 STAR Reward.  Orders of $49.99 or below DO NOT earn any rewards.Example $50 = 1 STAR Reward, $100 = 2 STAR Rewards , $150 = 3 STAR Rewards etc. When you have earned 8 STAR Rewards you will get a FREE product order valued up to $40.00, your choice, and mailed directly to you!

Stampin’ Up! Dandy Designs Box for Note Cards

Hello again.. as promised I have the easy box for the super cute Playing In The Rain Note Cards & Envelopes shared these past couple of days. It is made with Dandy Designs 12×12 DSP that is FREE with a $100 order during this time of Sale-a-bration (Jan to end of Feb 2023). I reinforced the box with the white backing that comes with DSP. It’s perfect for a project like this!

Stampin' Up! Box for Note Cards & Envelopes

As you can see I’ve tied it closed with a wonderful Metallic Mesh Ribbon, then tied the banner on with the Simply Elegant Trim in silver. Here’s what the box looks like on the inside with the reinforcement panels in place.

Stampin' Up! Box for Note Cards & Envelopes.inside

How to:

  • Begin by cutting a panel 9 1/2 x 12 and score on the long side @ 3 1/2, 5 1/2 9 1/2 & 11
  • Turn and score on short side @ 2″ & 7 1/2″
  • Burnish all score lines and trim as shown in next photo… trim just to 2″ score line on each side, remembering the flap is the smallest score (11) That first flap is also
Stampin' Up! Bor for Note Cards, scoring & trim
  • The top of the photo shows the front flap and the two trimmed flaps that are part of the top. Notice that I rounded the flap ends.
  • The next ‘flaps’ I am going to number as 2, 3. & 4 – and they relate to both sides
  • Fold in flaps 3 and put adhesive on both flaps 2 as they will be the sides and will attach to flaps 4 when folded.
  • Fold, keeping the # 3 flaps loose and on the inside.
  • Flaps #3 are now adhered to the sides – and done! However, I chose to add panels of the white boards from DSP packaging.
    • Cut pieces: sides ~ 2 x 3 1/2 (cut 2) and adhere to inside sides; front & back ~ 5 3/8 x 3 1/2 (cut 2) and adhere to insides front & back; and finally the bottom ~ 2 x 5 3/8 (cut 2 and adhere together) and adhere to bottom.
Stampin' Up! Box for Note Cards & Envelopes, reinforced

I have filled this box with six decorated note cards plus their coordinating envelopes. Those cards may be seen here and here. I did one more card just for fun.

The card front is Rain or Shine DSP covering the entire front of the card. I stamped the clouds using Smoky Slate ink and the Playing in the Rain stamp set, then die cut the clouds with the Playing in the Rain Dies. They are added to the card with dimensionals. The cute turtle is fussy cut from the Rain or Shine DSP and added with liquid glue. The banner is stamped in Smoky Slate ink with the Playing in the Rain stamp set and trimmed with the Banners Pick a punch then a strip of Old Olive added to the back with Stampin’ Seal then attached to the card with dimensionals. The inside of the card has an adorable flower bunch die cut from the Rain or Shine DSP with Stylish Shapes Dies and added with liquid glue. The envelope is stamped in Smoky Slate ink with Playing in the Rain stamp set and colored with Daffodil Delight & Old Olive Stampin’ Blends.
