Stampin’ Up! Artisan Sketched Garden DSP for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday blog Hop

Posted on by

Welcome to Thursday & our fabulous hop! We have a sketch challenge today & I played with the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP to create this beautiful card – that & the Shimmer Brushes to color the flowers.

Stampin' Up! Blog Hop Sketch Challenge

And here’s my card. I took a piece of the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP – it’s an all black & white images pack that I love!- and cut it to 4 1/4 x 4 1/2. Then I set about coloring it with the Shimmer Brushes… Crisp Cantaloupe, Golden Glow and finally Hydrangea Hue. I added this to a Crisp cantaloupe card base 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2. I took the backside of this same paper and cut two strips 1/4″ wide and added these top & bottom. I stamped thre sentiment using the Words & Wishes stamp set in Memento ink on a Basic White strip, added a piece of Crisp Cantaloupe to the bottom, and angled the one end, attached dimensionals to the back & set it aside to make a double bow from Black Baker’s Twine (it comes in a pack of 5 different colors). This was attached to the back of the sentiment panel with a glue dot, then the strip was added to the card front. Final touch – three 2026-2028 In Color Dots in Crisp Cantaloupe.

For the inside of the card I stamped another sentiment from Words & Wishes stamp set in Memento ink on the Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 panel, then added another strip of the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP. To finish this off, I cut out a vase from another one of the papers in this fabulous pack & colored it: Cloud Cover for the water and Shimmer Brush in Crisp Cantaloupe for the flowers – then attached as though the polka dot strip were a table.

For the envelope – same coloring on the same pattern of flowers from the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP was added to the flap & trimmed to fit. And another sentiment from the same Words & Wishes stamp set was stamped in the lower left front of the envelope. Done & ready to send to someone fabulous!

Stampin’ Up! Opulent Oasis & Berry Botanical Vellum Paired with a Fun Fold

Posted on by

Good morning! Oh my goodness, we have such a beautiful day here on the Jersey coast. It’s only going up to 75 (now 60) and the humidity is low – I’m in heaven. Today’s card is a bit of that as well. So here ya go…

Opulent Oasis & Berry Botanical Vellum fun fold with belly band
Stampin' Up! Opulent Oasis & Berry Botanical Vellum Fun Fold card open

Isn’t this pretty? And so incredibly easy!!! Here are the basics… the card base is 11 x 5 1/2 scored @ ! 3/4, 5 1/2, & 9 3/4 – mountain, valley, valley. Layer W/ DSP: 2 @ 3 1/2 x 5 1/4, 1 1/2 x 5 1/4, & 2 @ 1 x 5 1/4. Basic White panel is 4 x 5 1/4 & stamped with the Opulent Oasis stamp set in Bubble Bath & Strawberry Slush stamped off once, leaves are in Peaceful Pine. The belly band is 1 x 10 & wrapped around loosely and secured in front. I used the Sweet Words Dies, Basic White & another piece of the Vellum to create the background for the flower & adhered over the secured Belly Band. The flower is stamped in Bubble Bath & strawberry Slush stamped off once using the Opulent Oasis stamp set then die cut with the corresponding dies. Leaves were die cut from Peaceful Pine using the Opulent Oasis Dies. The leaves were attached with liquid glue to the back of the flower, and the flower attached to the banners with dimesnionals. In the center are several Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels.

Here’s how the card looks from the top.

For the envelope front … The same Opulent Oasis flower stamped in Bubble Bath & Strawberry Slush stamped off once. Center color is Daffodil Delight.

Stampin’ Up! Violets Fun Fold for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by
3

Welcome, welcome. We have a wonderful floral challenge for us today & I’ve chosen a new, soon to be released July ONLINE Exclusive to use in this shutter card. The Framed Violets bundle is part of the Violet Dreams Suite of products: Adhesive-Backed Blooms, 1/4″ Satin Ribbon in Fresh Freesia, Violet Dreams 12×12 DSP & the Framed Violets bundle already mentioned.

Stampin' Up! Framed Violets Shutter fold card front

When looking at this card, notice the stamped sentiment on Basic White, then notice below the stamped sentiment on Hydrangea Hue – that’s all part of the slider mechanism. It is so cool in person!

Stampin' Up! Framed Violets shutter fun fold inside card

And here’s a top/ down view…

Stampin' Up! Framed Violets Shutter fun fold top/ down view

How to make this card… notice there are two colors used on this card, a light color (Hydrangea Hue) & a Basic White and there are two panels of the Hydrangea Hue.

Front Panel: Color 1 – 4 14 x 8 1/4 scored at 5 1/2. The smaller section is what creates the shuttle or ‘slider’ of the card. Cover the larger section with DSP cut 4 x 5 1/4. Use a 2″ hole punch to create the opening on the front side. Center Panel: this is Secret Sea – 4 1/4 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. Add a 4 x 4 DSP to each side. With the fold to the left, place so this panel is flush with the right edge of the card front; hold in place, trace the 2″ circle, then punch the 2″ circle where marked. Close this Secret Sea piece & trace the circle to the right side of the Secret Sea (see the floral pattern in the open card), punch the 2″ circle again using the tracing to line up.. There should now be three circles: front and both sides of the Secret Sea inside panel. Adhere the backside of the left section of this folded panel to the inside of the front panel, matching edges so they are even. DO NOT TRY TO LINE UP WITH THE FOLD! Back Panel: The color of this panel should match that of the card front. In my case – Hydrangea Hue: 4 1/4 x 5 3/4 score at 5 1/2. Cut a Basic White piece about 3 1/4 x 3 1/4 and adhere close to the score line and that becomes the stamped sentiment we see with the card closed. Do not adhere just yet :O) First, burnish the score line well, fold it inwards and add adhesive along the 1/4″ fold. With the folded edge in, add to the center panel even with the right edge of that panel. It will look like the photo at left, below. Now add the Basic White piece so it fits behind the opening and can be stamped. (yes, mine is a circle cut with the Stitched Shapes Dies). Now add adhesive along that score line as shown in photo at right and close card. This keeps the card from being floppy.

Stampin' Up! template of shuttle card.1
Stampin' Up! template image of shuttle card

Now you may do your stamping sentiments. With the card closed, stamp on the Basic White panel – that’s what shows when the card is closed. For my car rd I stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink and used the sentiment from the Framed Violets stamp set. Open the card and stamp on the ‘slider’ portion. Again, Gorgeous Grape ink and the sentiment is from Framed Violets stamp set.

Now it’s time to decorate the various layers: To create the ‘frame’ around the circle I used a 2 3/8 circle punch and a 2″ circle punch and adhered it to the front & one on the right inside circle as well. card front: I used the Framed Violets Dies to die cut the violets from Basic White then colored the violets using Stampin’ Blends in Highland Heather. I used the tiniest of the Rhinestone Basic Jewels for the flower centers. The leaves arew die cut using the Framed Violets Dies and Peaceful Pine. I added the flowers & leaves with dabs of glue then added the bow with a glue dot: 1/4″ Satin Ribbon in Fresh Freesia (part of the suite). The additional gems are Adhesive-Backed Blooms that add that final touch of sparkle. Love these!

And below is the card & envelope – this sweet, sweet violet from the Framed Violets stamp set stamped in Memento ink then colored with Highland Heather & Peaceful Pine Stampin’ Blends. The same pattern of DSP from Violet Dreams 12×12 was added to flap & trimmed to fit. This becomes such a beautiful gift to a birthday gal – all by itself. Love!!

Stampin’ Up! Sneak Peek of Summer Happiness, July ONLINE Exclusive for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by

Welcome to Thursday and this fun hop! We have a sketch challenge today & I chose to work a brand new July ONLINE EXCLUSIVE bundle. It’s called Summer Happiness. 😀

Stampin' Up! Blog Hop
Stampin' Up! Sketch challenge

Stampin' Up! Summer Happiness card front

I began by stamping these fun summer images and using a different ink for each one: Timid Tiger, Daffodil Delight and Strawberry Slush. They are so absolutely typical summer! Then I took the Perennial Postage Dies to die cut the immediate background for each: under the drink is Summer Slush, under the sun is Daffodil Delight, and under the flip flops is Timid Tiger. Using the next larger die in Perennial Postage, I die cut three rectangles from Basic White. I adhered each of these layers together with dimensionals and set them aside to make the background for these cute images. The card base is Thick Basic White (11 x 4 1/4 scored @ 5 1/2) with a layer of Crisp cantaloupe (4 x 5 1/4). I used the largest die in Perennial Postage Dies to die cut the panel from 2026-2028 In Color Painted Patterns DSP. Each of these layers were added with liquid glue. Before placing my rectangles, I stamped the sentiment in Strawberry Sluch ink on a Basic White piece & adhered a narrow strip of Strawberry Slush to the back. I put dimensionals on the back and centered it on the bottom of the card. I then added the three rectangles, placing the center item first then the other two. These were attached with liquid adhesive. Final touch – a few embellishment in Strawberry Slush.

Stampin' Up! Summer Happiness card inside

For the inside… Another panel of Crisp Cantaloupe was added (4 x 5 1/4) then the Basic White panel (3 3/4 x 5). I stamped the sunglasses in Strawberry Slush ink and the card itself was complete!

Stampin' Up! Summer Happiness card & envelope

For the envelope… I added the same Crisp Cantaloupe color of Painted Patterns DSP to the flap & trimmed to fit. I then stamped the sentiment on the front from Summer Happiness stamp set in Timid Tiger. Such a fun, light-hearted card!

Below is the bundle used for today’s card. Aren’t these fun images & dies coordinate! I could have done this same challenge using the daisy stamp and three images of that – wouldn’t that be cute!

Stampin’ Up! Artisan Sketched Garden DSP + Framed All Around Sympathy Card

Posted on by
2

Hello Saturday! We are in full rain for the next 48 hours mode… Maybe I can play in my craft room 😀 or… get some other projects completed. Today I have a sympathy card made with Artisan Sketched Garden and some Stampin’ Blends and oh yes, some Berry Botanical Vellum.

Stampin' Up! Artisan Sketched Garden & Framed All Around Sympathy card front

I began by coloring the pretty floral images on the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP: Peaceful Pine for the leaves, Fresh Freesia & Golden Glow for the flowers. Interesting combination, right? I took my cue for this combination by looking at the Berry Botanical Vellum which has an even larger mix of colors. I backed this with a panel of Golden Glow card stock then wrapped it with 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon in Golden Glow. I took another short length and slipped it under the ribbon & tied a knot. I stamped the sentiment in Memento Black ink on Basic White scrap & fussy cut it & placed it on the front with dimensionals. I cut a piece of the grid vellum from the Berry Botanical Vellum pack & backed it with Fresh Freesia. This was adhered directly to the polka dot pattern of the Artisan Sketched Garden that was already on a Card base of Basic Black.

Stampin' Up! Artisan Sketched Garden & Framed All Around Sympathy card inside

For the inside… I stamped the sentiment using the Framed All Around stamp set & Memento Black ink then stamped the ‘frame’ in two places with Fresh Freesia ink. The Basic White was secured to the card base & the card was complete.

Stampin' Up! Artisan Sketched Garden & Framed All Around sympathy card & envelope

For the envelope… I stamped this leaf image in Memento Black ink & colored the leaves with Peaceful Pine Stampin’ Blends. On the flap is another of the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP in the polka dot pattern used for the card front. I love how this card turned out, sweet to look at and gentle thoughts.

Stampin’ Up! W/V Fun Fold with Silly Old Bear

Posted on by

Good morning, good morning! It is a bleak looking day here today – cloudy, overcast, 55 degrees. Of course 2 days ago it was 94! We made this card two weeks ago in card class & I forgot to post it 😖. It is so cute… Silly Old Bear DSP, Hundred Acre Woods embossing Folder & coordinating Sweet Words & Lab els bundle. These are all from the May ONLINE EXCLUSIVES.

Stampin' Up! Silly Old Bear May ONLINE W/V Fun Fold

I used the dies from Sweet Words & Labels to die cut this image straight from the Silly Old Bear DSP. The layer behind the DSP is Golden Glow card stock, one of the new In Colors for 2026-2028. I used Wink of Stella on the Balloon & Hydrangea Hue for stamping the sentiment from Sweet Words & Labels stamp set. Let’s look at the inside of the card so you can see the whole image.

Stampin' Up! Silly Old Bear W/V Fun Fold inside card

The DSP layers here are all from the Silly Old Bear DSP – gorgeous aren’t they? And the card stock layers are Golden Glow. The card base is Very Vanilla and the embossed panel is also Very Vanilla, embossed with Hundred Acre Woods 3D embossing Folder as I mentioned earlier. The images for the V panel were fussy cut from the Silly Old Bear DSP & stamped with the Sweet Words & Labels stamp set: either Golden Glow or Hydrangea Hue.

Directions for a W/V fun fold:

  • The card base is 11 x 5 1/2 scored on the long side @ 1 3/4, 3 1/2, 5 1/4, & 7
  • Card stock layers 1 1/2 x 5 1/4 – cut 4; 3 3/4 x 5 1/4 + embossed panel 3 5/8 x 5 1/8
  • DSP layers 1 3/8 x 5 1/8 – cut 4, 2 different patterns
  • Die cut images from Silly Old Bear DSP using the Sweet Words & Labels Dies; die cut card stock layer for behind each image with next size larger die
  • Embossed the largest panel for the inside back – Hundred Acre Woods EF
  • Adhere Layers together & attach to card base
  • Cut another panel of card stock (here it is Very Vanilla) 6 x 3 & score on long side @ 3″; attache to front panel & last scored panel to create the V – see photo below. Decorate the right panel w/ card stock layer 2 3/4 x 2 3/4 then Very Vanilla layer 2 5/8 x 2 5/8. This last layer is stamped & decorated prior to attaching.
  • Attach die cuts from DSP; add additional fussy cut layer for inside back panel & stamp sentiment in Hydrangea Hue

Stampin’ Up! Waterside Retreat Father’s Day card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by
4


It’s Thursday & time for another Blog Hop from this fabulous Krew! We have a sketch challenge today that is so versatile and can be used for lots of cards – birthdays, sympathy, you name it. I chose this Waterside Retreat DSP as this card is for a fisherman for Father’s Day. I think this fits well!

Stampin' Up! Blog logo
Stampin' Up! Blog sketch challenge
Stampin' Up! Waterside Retreat sketch challenge

Here’s what I did to create this card… I first cut a panel of the Waterside Retreat DSP 3 3/4 x 5 1/2 & added a slip margin of Azure Afternoon card stock to the one side. I set this aside and cut a 1 x 5 1/2 piece of the same DSP (it’s the reverse side of the fish images) and added it to the 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 Azure Afternoon card base (yep, scored at 4 1/4. I then added the set aside panel. These were all added with liquid glue. I stamped the sentiment in Azure Afternoon ink using the Relaxing Waterside stamp set, on the Azure Afternoon 5/8 x 2 1/2″ strip. I attached this to a Crisp Cantaloupe 3/4 x 2 1/2 strip & slipped a large Linen Thread bow between dimensionals & attached it with a glue dot to the strip. The strip was added to the card front with dimensionals as mentioned. Final touch – 2026-2028 In Color Dots in Crisp Cantaloupe.

Stampin' Up! Waterside Retreat inside card

For the inside… A 4 x 5 1/4 piece of Basic White with a strip of the Waterside Retreat DSP 3/4 x 5 1/4 was then stamped with na sentiment from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Azure Afternoon ink. This was added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Waterside Retreat card & envelope

For the envelope… a 2 1/4 x 6″ strip of the Waterside Retreat was added to the flapn & trimmed to fit. On the front a simple grass stamped in Old Olive ink three times without re-inking in between. This gives a sense of dimension to the image. Love the simplicity!

Stampin’ Up! Showing Off Velvet Meadows SDSP for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by
10

Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! We have a sketch challenge today & I’m showing off a new Specialty Designer Series Paper for it. I’ve created three cards but the first is the first is my favorite. Why is it special – because it has raised areas that feel like velvet!!! Hence the name – Velvet Meadows

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Krew Blog Hop
Stampin' Up! blog hop challenge
Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow card front 1

This card began with one of the new IN COLOR card stocks – Peaceful Pine 11 x4 1/4 scored at 5 1/2 (side fold). I used a SDSP layer 4 x 5 1/4 from Velvet Meadows SDSP.. The next layer is another Peaceful Pine with the gorgeous velvet side of the Velvet Meadows SDSP – adhered together & added with dimensionals. I then die cut some of the flowers from the SDSP using the coordinating Flowering Meadows Dies. I fussy cut several leaves: leaves & flowers were added to the card front with dimensionals. Now we have two layers of dimensionals in total. The sentiment is stamped in Berry Burst using the Flowering Meadows stamp set and fussy cut, then added with dimesnionals. Final step – two stunning embellishments: Dreaming Flowers in whiten – yep, from the suite!

Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow card 1 inside
Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow card 1 & envelope

For the inside… I stamped this floral image from the Flowering Meadows stamp set in Berry Burst on a Basic White panel 4 x 5 1/4. This was attached to the inside side of the card.

For the envelope… I stamped this same image in Berry Burst on both the flap & the front of the envelope. This just ties everything together making it look so perfect!

Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow card 2 front
Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow Card 2 inside

My next card is again a card base of Peaceful Pine5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 (top fold). I embossed a Basic White panel 4 x 5 14 with the Paradise Garden 3D embossing Folder & attached it to the card front. The next layer is Peaceful Pine with a layer of the Velvet Meadows SDSP & attached with dimensionals. In this suite of products is the Velveteen Assortment Special Paper – this one used is white. I die cut these gorgeous small leaves using the Flowering Meadows Dies. On Basic White I stamped the daisyin Peaceful Pine ink, then die cut the center with the Velveteen Assortment Specialty Paper in White and attached this by adhering the stem with liquid glue & a mini dimensional on the back of the daisy flower.

For the inside, I stamped off the stems & image in Peaceful Pine on the Basic White panel 4 x 5 14 & attached it – no sentiment!

Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow card 3 front
Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow card 3 inside

For this last card, I used Berry Burst for the card base (5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 – top fold). I layered this with Velvet Meadows SDSP 4 x 5 1/4. The next is Berry Burst & another of the papers in Velvet Meadows SDSP – I LIKE this contrast! I’ve added no sentiment or any kind of embellishment. The SDSP speaks for itself.

For the inside, I stamped the double flower image in Berry Burst ink on the Basic White panel (5 1/4 x 4) & adhered this to the inside of the card. The sentiment is stamped in Peaceful Pine ink using the Flowering Meadows stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow card 2 & envelope
Stampin' Up! Velvet Meadow card 3 & envelope

Here are the envelopes for the two additional cards: the left stamped with Peaceful Pine ink: full strength then stamped again & once more without re-inking. This was sone on the envelope front & the flap. The envelope on right is stamped off erry Burst ink and the same double flowers image from Flowering Meadows stamp set.

Now… check out what others on the hop are creating. I had extra fun making cards with the same layout but each with different layers/ embellishments or very simple & just paper, Each is so different from the next, which makes it extra fun. Click the ‘next’ button or click on a name to vist the other participants.

Stampin’ Up! Slider Card Fun Fold with Sneak Peek Products

Posted on by
2

Good morning! I’m so excited to share this card with you – it’s a beauty, I used some new products that will be coming out in the May-August 2026 Catalog that you can order on May 5.

Stampin' Up! Slider Card fun fold, card front

The card base is Crisp Cantaloupe. Don’t you just love that name of a color? The layers are Peaceful Pine and various papers from the Bloom Boutique Specialty Paper Pack. The flowers & leaves come from a new bundle – Boutique Blossoms and the scalloped die cuts use the Scalloped Blooms bundle. Before I share all the details about how to make this card, let’s see the inside where the slider is.

Stampin' Up! Slider card fun fold inside

More gorgeous paper shown here from the same Bloom Boutique SDSP. And the slider? That’s the sentiment panel – and it slips inside the panel on the right.

So, directions… I chose to do the inside first so let’s start there.

  • The card base is the standard 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored on the long side @ 2 3/4 & 6 3/4. Burnish the score lines as both will fold to the inside.
  • Cut the left DSP panel 2 1/2 x 5 1/4 and adhere
  • Cut the center DSP panel 3 3/4 x 5 1/4 and adhere
  • Fold the last panel inwards with a narrow line of adhesive at just the top & bottom (see photo)
Stampin' Up! Slider card template

Decorate this folded over section with contrasting card stock (Peaceful Pine 1 1/2 x 5 1/4) then an overlay of DSP (1 1/4 x 5)

Creating the Slider for the card:

  • Cut a piece of card stock same color as card base (Crisp Cantaloupe) 3 3/4 x 4 1/4 & score 1/2″ on short side. Burnish & add adhesive to the scored end
  • Add this to the left inside panel even with the DSP & equidistant top to bottom
  • Fold this to the right, add a stamped Basic White piece 3 x 4 to the ‘slider’ front, then slip it into the opening on the right (I stamped the sentiment in Peaceful Pine ink – new In Color! and the flowers in Crisp cantaloupe – also new In Color! The sentiment is from Scalloped Blooms & the flowers are from Boutique Blossoms)

Now let’s decorate the front, which is really only the left panel 😀 Cut a contrasting card stock (Peaceful Pine) 2 1/2 x 5 1/4 and a DSP panel 2 1/4 x 5. Add to card front.

  • Die cut two panels of Scalloped Blooms Dies (Crisp Cantaloupe & Basic White) Stamp the BW piece in Peace Pine ink using a stamp from the Scalloped Blooms stamp set
  • Stamp small flowers in Peaceful Pine ink & the medium flower outline stamp in Crisp Cantaloupe. Stamp the filler stamp for both flowers in Barely Blush ink (another new IN COLOR!) Use the Light Peaceful Pine Stampin’ Blend to add color to the leaves of the small flowers. Die cut & set aside.
  • Die cut the small group of leaves (Peaceful Pine)
  • Add each of these die cuts to the die cut scallops and attach to card front.
  • Final touch… add three (3) 2026-2028 In Color Dots

Envelope… Add another piece of the Bloom Boutique SDSP 2 1/4 x 6 to the flap & trim to fit. Stamp the front with flowers from the Bloom Boutique stamp set with Crisp Cantaloupe ink. YAY – this is ready to send to someone special!

Stampin’ Up! Sneaky Peek of the Silly Old Bear Suite & a Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by

Do you remember the adorable stuffed animals of Winnie the Pooh, Eyeore and Piglet? There are others animals produced as well, but I have to say – I loved these animals and the stories that went with them. So when this suite of products became available to demonstrators, I had this suite at the top of my list.

Welcome to the Happy Inkin ‘ Thursday Blog Hop. We have a sketch challenge today & I chose to play with this Silly Old Bear Suite of products available to customers May 5.

Stampin' Up! Hop Sketch Challenge

Stampin' Up! Silly Old Bear card front

I am really appreciating the new IN COLORS! This card base is Hydrangea Hue 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2. I added this awesome picture panel, cut directly from the 12×12 Silly Old Bear Designer Series Paper. On the lower part of the card front is this stunning label, die cut from Very Vanilla card stock using the Sweet Words & Labels bundle. The sentiment? from the same stamp set – Sweet Words & Labels – stamped in Crumb Cake ink. The embellishments are Neutral Matte Dots.

Stampin' Up! Silly Old Bear card inside

For the inside of the card I used another sentiment from the Sweet Words & Labels stamp aet, stamped in Crumb Cake ink on Very Vanilla card stock. It was die cut using the Sweet Words & Labels Dies. I adhered it to a the inside of the card after attaching a piece of the Silly Old Bear 12×12 DSP. I then stamped the image of Silly Old Bear & Piglet walking together – using the Sweet Old Friends stamp set. This set also has coordinating dies – and they die cut images straight from the DSP. You are so going to LOVE THIS suite of products. This suite is a May ONLINE EXCLUSIVE and will be available May 5.

Stampin' Up! Silly Old Bear card & envelope

For the envelope, more of the Silly Old Bear DSP on the flap trimmed to fit and for the front, this sweet Pooh Bear & Piglet walking along. I did use Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends to add some shading – and for Piglet a bit of Old Olive for the top he’s wearing. Below is an image of the suite collection – look at those fun dies! Oh my gosh… so much fun! This takes me back to earlier years for sure.

This is a suite you will definitely want to add to your wish list for ordering May 5. More info about ordering from me is listed below. For now, I want to encourage you to visit others participating in today’s hop. Get ready to see some fabulous creations.
