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.

To purchase items to make this card… Jan- Apr 2024 Mini Catalog. + the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

Stampin’ Up! Layered Florals 3D EF Sympathy Card

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

Hello folks. The Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder is just beautiful. I’ve paired it with the Thoughtful Expressions Bundle and Lifetime of Love stamp set, all of which may be found in the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog.

Stampin' Up! Layered Florals 3D EF Sympathy Card front

I used a Thick Basic White card base and paired it with Azure Afternoon card stock. I ran the Azure Afternoon panel through the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder to get this marvelous deep impression. I pulled out the Whisper White re-inker and put a couple of drops on an acrylic block. With a sponge dauber, I tapped into the ink then swiped the dauber gently across the raised parts of the panel. As various portions dried the ink became lighter and I kept applying where I wanted a bit more of the white, until I was satisfied.I adhered this to the card base with liquid glue. I used my embossing buddy to clean all static from a Basic White scrap, stamped the sentiment in VersaMark ink, sprinkled it with Silver Embossing Powder and heat set with the heat tool. I love watching the silver as it melts and becomes shiny. The sentiment is from Thoughtful Expressions stamp set. I die cut the piece with the Thoughtful Expressions Dies. I looped a piece of the Silver trim from the Gold & Silver Trim Combo Pack, to make it look like a bow and adhered it in place with glue dots. I added dimensionals to the die cut sentiment piece and attached it over the bow. As a final touch, I added three Festive Pearls in Silver.

Stampin' Up! Layered Florals 3D EF Sympathy card inside

For the inside… I again used the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder to create an edge pattern on the sentiment insert. I stamped the sentiment in Azure Afternoon ink using the Thoughtful expressions stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Layered Florals 3D EF Sympathy card & envelope

For the envelope… I embossed the flap with the same Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder, then stamped this lovely flower in Azure Afternoon ink. The flower is so similar to the large flowers of the embossing folder, I simply HAD to use it. It comes from the Lifetime of Love stamp set.(which also has gorgeous coordinating dies BTW!)

The Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog has the embossing folder listed on page 65; Thoughtful Expressions bundle on 62 and Lifetime of Love bundle on page 16..

Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions for the Happy Thursday Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

Posted on February 1, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

It’s Thursday and time for a Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!!! We have a sketch challenge today and it’s always interesting how others interpret a challenge,.I have used the Thoughtful Expressions Bundle aND Inspirational Sketches stamp set for my card today. I used other items as well, but these are from the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions Grateful Card. Thu Hop 2/1

My card base is Thick Basic White 4 1?4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2, a very basic card base. The next layer is Crushed Curry that has been run through the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. I layered another panel of Basic White on top of that 3 3/8 x 4 5/8 then Basic Gray run through the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder 3 14 x 4 1/2. The very front layer is this stunningly gorgeous die cut from Thoughtful Expressions Dies in Basic White, stamped with this beautiful stamp of daisies from Inspirational Sketches stamp set in Basic Gray ink and added to the card front with dimensionals. The sentiment is also from Inspirational Sketches stamp set and is stamped with VersaMark ink then sprinkled with Black Embossing Powder and heat set with the heat tool – all on a scrap of Crushed Curry card stock. It was adhered with liquid glue and a dimensional on the far left end. For a final touch I added several Iris=descent Pearly /Basic Jewels for glam. This was another ‘first play’ with Inspirational Sketches stamp set– love this set!

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions for the Thursa Blog Hoop 2/1

For the inside… A panel of Crushed Curry 4 18 x 5 3/8 then a Basic White panel stamped: Basic Gray ink with flowers from Inspirational Sketches stamp set in opposite corners and a sentiment from Thoughtful Expressions stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Expressions Bundle for the Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop 2/1

For the envelope… I stamped this floral image in Basic Gray ink from the Thoughtful Expressions stamp set on the envelope front – and left it at that. I often emboss the envelope flap, but chose not to this time. I like the simplicity for this card.

Stampin’ Up! Lifetime of Love Bundle

Posted on January 27, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Hello to the weekend! Hope you have something fun planned. We’ve hads a week of pretty nasty weather – cold, windy, rain (like pouring rain). Today we were able to walk without getting drenched.

I pulled out another new product for today’s card – can’t believe I haven’t played with this bundle yet – Lifetime of Love Bundle. This set can be used for so many cards: anniversary, just because, valentines, wedding. I especially love the dies :O) And here’s just one of them.

Stampin' Up! Lifetime of Love Bundle, card front

I die cut the image from Delightful Floral 12×12 DSP – a Calypso Coral side, using the Lifetime of love Dies. I then colored the flower with a sponge dauber and Calypso Coral ink. Next I added more color to the leaves: Pretty Peacock then Parakeet Party, both with sponge daubers. I pulled Petal Pink card stock, ran it through the Softly Sophisticated 3D embossing folder (a FREE Product with a qualified order during Jan-Feb 2024 Sale-a-Bration), then tapped it lightly with the Whisper White ink pad. I laid the die cut image on the embossed panel to determine where the sentiment should be, then stamped that sentiment from Lifetime of Love stamp set in Early Espresso ink. I probably should have stamped it prior to the embossing, but didn’t. – shame on me. It still turned out well. I adhered the die cut piece with small dabs of liquid glue and added it to the card front. I cut a piece of Basic White slightly larger and adhered the two together, put dimensionals on the back and attached it to a Petal Pink card base. For a bit of flourish, I added three Iridescent Foil Gems from the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog and a bow from the Ribbon Duo Combo Pack in Petal Pink. This duo is in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

Stampin' Up! Lifetime of Love Bundle, card inside

For the inside, I stamped the leaf from Lifetime of Love stamp set using Parakeet Party ink than a sponge dauber to bring in some Pretty Peacock. The sentiment is from Lifetime of Love stamp set and is stamp in Pretty Peacock ink. If you have never tried adding extra depth of color with a sponge dauber – DO! It can make a dramatic difference. Here I wanted a subtle effect of color on the leaf and like it a lot.

Stampin' Up! Lifetime of Love Bundle card & envelope

For the envelope… I ran just the flap of the envelope through the embossing folder by placing the the flap inside the embossing folder and folding the remainder of the envelope under the folder. You can see the direction is different, but that’s ok. For the front of the envelope, I stamped the floral image in Calypso Coral ink – and that was that.

I mentioned using products from three Stampin’ Up! catalogs: the 2023 Annual Catalog, the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog and the Jan-Feb 2024 Sale-a-Bration Catalog. If you do not have a demonstrator and need catalogs – it’s always more fun to see the product on real pages and with lots of ideas on how to use them – contact me and I’ll get them to you lickety split.

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.

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! Notes of Nature Bundle for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on January 25, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

It’s Thursday and that means a whole host of creations by this extra special team of crafters. Thanks for joining on this Blog Hop. Our theme today is love – to be interpreted individually. Does that mean hearts to you, or showing appreciation or gratitude? Whatever it is – you will see a variety on today’s hop. Mine is sharing praise and being thankful for others kind of card using the Notes of Nature Bundle.

Stampin' Up! Notes of Nature Congratulations. Thu hop. 1/25

I used some fun products on this card – the Notes of Nature bundle and the Lovely & Sweet stamp set. These can be found on pages 40-43 in the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog. From the suite of products shown on those pages, I also used the Nature’s Sweetness 12×12 SDSP and the Adhesive-Backed Cork Dots. I din’t think I would like these – but I DO!. I used the fun die cut from Notes of Nature Dies to die cut from Vellum Basics SDSP the long leaf die. I continued to die cut from that same Vellum Basics SDSP and the Notes of Nature Dies, various leaf patterns. I also die cut from the Nature’s Sweetness SDSP, the gold leaves shown under the sentiment.. Once those were all die cut, I began assembling the card… Thick Basic White for the card base, the Nature’s Sweetness SDSP cut to cover the card front.. I then cut the next layer of Nature’s Sweetness SDSP to about 2 1/2 & 5 1/2. I cut two strips of Pebbled Path card stock about 14″ x 5 12 and adhered it to the back of the Pebbled Path SDSP, then attached it directly to the card base. I added the vellum die cuts with glue dots, then the 1/4″ strip of Pecan Pie card stock at an angle. the gold leaf was attached with dimensionals. The sentiment comes from Lovely & Sweet stamp set (page 42) and is stamped in Pecan Pie ink on a Basic White scrap, then attached with dimensionals at each end. I added the Adhesive-Backed Cork Dots for texture – and love the effect!

For the inside… I stamped the cross-hatch pattern using the Lovely & Sweet stamp set & Pebbled Path ink; then stamped the sentiment from Lovely & Sweet stamp set in Pecan Pie ink. This Basic White panel was adhered to the inside of the card – and sending love & congratulations all at once.

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

For the envelope… more of the Pebbled Path pattern from Nature’s Sweetness 12×12 SDSP on the flap, trimmed to fit. Then I stamped the fun image from Lovely & Sweet stamp set in Pebbled Path ink – and done. I really like this card and am so pleased with the finished product. Love in action in a congratulations card!

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 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.
