Welcome to Friday! I have a very fun card for you today and a sneaky peek of another stamp set in the new Mini September -December 2023 catalog. and simple as ever. I enjoy coloring and my Stampin’ Blends came in very handy for that :O)
This card also introduces some of the sort of ‘funky’ Designer Series Paper called Merry & Bright (available September 6 as part of the Mini Sep-Dec 2023 catalog).
For Stampin’ Blends, I used Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, Dark Poppy Parade, Lemon Lime Twist, Dark Granny Apple Green, Crumb Cake, the Color Lifter, and Wink of Stella to the star. I stamped the image from Festive & Fun stamp set in Pebbled Path ink on a Basic White panel 2 1/2 x 4 5/16. Once I finished coloring, I adhered it to a Shaded Spruce 2 9/16 x 4 1/2, then mounted it with dimensionals to another Basic White panel wrapped in Metallic Woven Ribbon in Parakeet Party. The card base is also Shaded Spruce card stock 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2, layered with Granny Apple Green card stock 4 x 5 1/4 and the awesome panel of Merry Bold & Bright DSP 3 3/4 x 5.
Look at this adorable beast at the bottom of the inside – also from the Festive & Fun stamp set, stamped in Pebbled Path and colored with Stampin’ Blends: Crumb Cake, Poppy Parade and Wink of Stella was added to the candy cane. The sentiment comes from – yep, you guessed it – Festive and Fun stamp set and is stamped in Poppy Parade ink.
For the envelope, I stamped another adorable image from the Festive & Fun stamp set: stamped in Pebbled Path ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends Dark Poppy Parade, Pool Party and Daffodil Delight. The envelope flap was covered in the same Merry Bold & Bright DSP trimmed to fit. So, so cute! These would make wonderful gift tags as well! Another day… :O)

Welcome to another Thursday… and the amazing Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We have a color challenge for this hop.
I found the directions for this card and it seemed a clever way of making the card more flexible – and just had to give it a try. Susan Campfield was the demonstrator and had another name for it. Here’s what it looks like open.
Notice how there is a gap between the front of the card and the back of the card – that’s the split. And here’s how the card looks from the top.
Directions to make this card are not all that complicated – and all the colors for the color challenge are in the DSP :O) I used Blueberry Bushel for the card base, Pretty Peacock for stamping one of the sentiments and Bubble Bath and Lemon Lime Twist are in the DSP – so we’re good.
Cut the card base back from Blueberry Bushel 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
Cut the card front in two parts: Blueberry Bushel 1 3/4 x 5 12 & Masterfully Made DSP 3 x 5 1/2
Adhere the two front panels together so they measure 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
Cut the ‘M’ section from Blueberry Bushel 11 x 4 3/4 and score on the long side @ 2 3/4, 5 1/2, 8 1/4. Burnish as valley, mountain, valley as shown above.
Decorate panels as desired: Basic White layers are 2 1/2 x 4 1/2
Panel 1 is stamped with Pretty Peacock ink using the Charming stamp set; Radiating Stitches Dies was used to die cut the heart from Masterfully Made DSP
Panel 2 is a layer of Masterfully Made DSP 2 14 x 4 1/4 on the Basic White panel
Panel 3 is the same Masterfully Made DSP pattern as the heart, cut 1 x 4 1/4 adhered to the Basic White panel. Here I will write my message.
Panel 4 is this pretty stamp from Gorgeously Made stamp set, stamped with Pretty Peacock ink, stamped off once. Over that is another sentiment, this time from So Sincere stamp set (available Sep.6 in the Mini Sep-Dec 2023 Catalog) in full strength Blueberry Bushel ink on the Basic White panel.
On the inside of the back of the card, I used the Gorgeously Made stamp set and Blueberry Bushel ink to stamp these pretty images
Adhere the now decorated ‘M’ fold to the inside of the card front, keeping bottom edges even with card front; secure to back in same fashion.
Decorate the card front:
The sentiment was stamped in Blueberry Bushel ink to a Basic White scrap using the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set, then die cut with the coordinating Wonderful Thoughts Dies. This was adhered to the card front with dimensionals cut in half. Three Berry Burst embellishments were added from the Tinsel Gems 4 Pack.
I used another pattern of the Masterfully Made DSP to adhere to the envelope, trimmed to fit – 2 1/4 x 6.
Fun card to make! I hope you give it a try and share your photos with me.
Now, on with the hop! See what creative folks we have on our team. you won’t want to miss a single one!

Thanks for stopping by. May you have a beautiful day!
Good Wednesday – mid-week, what’s up!? I played today with making a couple of PP alternatives. There was one extra Lotus Blossom on a lily pad left over fvrom the August PP kit, so I used it to make another card, similar to the cards in the August PP kit.
I used my Blending Brush and Misty Moonlight ink to create a pale sky on a Basic White panel, then added more ink to create the water below. Once darker, I added a bit of Orchid Oasis ink in the same manner. I then stamped lily pads in Pretty Peacock ink using the appropriate stamp from the August PP kit. I then added the cutout from the kit on dimensionals I added three of the ‘watger-like’ embellishments from the kit. This was added to a slightly larger Misty Moonlight card stock. These two were added to the Basic White Notecard with dimensionals – and the card front was complete.
On another same size Basic White panel, I stamped a Lotus flower in Berry Burst ink, stamping off once first. And yes, thsi stamp is from the August PP kit!. I added this to a Misty Moonlight piece then adhered them both to the inside of the card. DONE!
Alternative Card 2:
Using the Forget-Me-Not stamp from the August PP kit, I stamped in memento ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the image with Stampin’ Blends: Tahitian Tide, Shaded Spruce and Lemon Lolly. I put this panel in my scoring tool and scored around each side: 5/8″ & 1/2″ from the back side. This allowed the ‘bump’ to show from the front :O). I added adouble Linen Thread bow with a glue dot, attached tghe panel to a slightly larger Tahitian Tide panel and added them to the front of a Basic White note card with dimensionals.
With the same size Basic White Panel and Tahitian Tide ink, I stamped the sentiment using a stamp from the August PP kit.. This piece was added to a slightly larger Tahitian Tide, then attached to the inside of the Basic White Note Card with liquid glue.
I love how these turned out and thought of making several more of this second card by varying the blues used for coloring and a layer. That didn’t happen today! Note cards standard size are 3 1/2 x 5, so the layers were Basic White 3 x 4 1/2 and the colored layer was 3 1/8 x 5 3/8. They are perfect for a short note or for a gift! I don’t use these nearly enough, but really like the size. Stampin’ Up! offers them in Very Vanilla as well. :O)

Good morning! My August Paper Pumpkin arrived the other day and I sat right down to play. There are eight cards in the Paper Pumpkin and very feminine and sweet. The back of the cards share comments about the particular flowers on the card: forget-me-nots and the lotus flower. And I love the 3D look and cut-outs!
This is the For-Me-Not card… notice the delicate cutout for the front and the flowers on dimensionals on the inside. This was not the only option for a sentiment on the provided banner, but it is what I chose. Even the Linen Thread is provided!
This shows the beautiful Lotus Flower and lily pads. Hopefully you can see the ‘water droplet’ embellishments provided in the kit. They are clear, so difficult to see – but there are at least five on each of the Lotus cards.
A Paper Pumpkin subscription is a fun way to be creative each month, with sometimes tags, boxes, or cards. Each month is unique for the season. And there is the opportunity to say, ‘not this month’ if the timing isn’t right or the kit is not something you want to do. In your very first subscription, an acrylic block is provided. In all subscriptions there is an ink spot, stamps, and appropriate supplies – along with picture directions. Here is what is in the September kit and information about it.
Express your love and gratitude in elegant style with the September Paper Pumpkin Kit inspired by Shelli! This kit includes eight treat packages (you can also use for small gifts) and eight miniature note cards with matching envelopes and specialty gold foil embellishments. Whether you’re needing a hostess gift, a sweet surprise for dinner guests, or have another reason to give love and thanks, this kit has you covered.
Plus, don’t miss the Thoughts of Thanks Journal! It matches both the design and intent of the kit, giving you an even more personal way to document and express your gratitude. It’s available as an add-on, but only while supplies last!
What’s better than a box full of crafts you can use to express your love and gratitude? How about the kit packaged in a custom, matching box that’s just as beautiful? The With Love & Gratitude comes with a custom box you can use to store all kinds of things: your finished treat packages and cards, crafting supplies, or you can fill it individual notes with all the reasons you have to be grateful—write each one down and fill up the box, then pull out a note of inspiration whenever you need it!

It’s Sunday and a glorious 60 degrees! But what that also says to me is summer is coming to an end… and I’m sad about that. Don’t get me wrong, fall is gorgeous, but there is something about the long days of summer that I really like; dawn at 5 AM and sun going down about 9:30 PM. This card is another sneaky peek at the Beary Cute stamp set and coordinating DSP. I love these bears, their faces mostly, whimsical.
The bear was fussy cut from the Beary Christmas 12×12 DSP. I put dimensionals on him & set this aside. The next was die cutting this gorgeous die from Holographic Trio DSP using the Christmas Classics Dies. As you can see, the die has lots of detail. I did peel one of the layers off the back to make the paper a bit thinner; then sprayed it lightly on the back with water to soften it. Then I ran it through the Cut & Emboss machine. :O) I next die cut the layer on which the bear is attached – a die from the Christmas Classics Dies and from Earthen Textures DSP. I put dimensionals on this and attached it to the larger die cut, then added the bear. I cut a piece of Misty Moonlight card stock 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 and ran it through the NEW Snowflake Sky 3D embossing Folder. This will be available to customer Sep 6 in the Mini Sep-Dec 2023 Catalog. If you don’t have a Stampin’ Up catalog yet, please connect with me & I’ll get it in the mail ASAP!
Next I created the Dutch Door card base: Very Vanilla card stock cut 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2. On the short side, cut at 2 1/8 to the score line. Remove paper, rotate and cut along score line to the 2 1/8 cut, removing the top front half of the card base. (Save this for the inside of the card.) And that’s your dutch door! I ran that bottom ‘door’ through the same Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder to create more texture for the card. I added the square decorated panel with the bear, adhering it just to the ‘door’ of the card front, centering it. I added three Festive Pearls in silver.
I cut a length of the Beary Christmas 12×12 DSP 2 x 5 3/8 and adhered it to the top half of the inside card base. The removed Very Vanilla panel to make the dutch door, was cut down to 2 x 5 3/8. I stamped this cute bear in Misty Moonlight ink using the Beary Cute stamp set. I adhered this to the inside of the card and worked on the sentiment. On a scrap of Very Vanilla, I stamped the sentiment in Real Red ink using Beary Cute stamp set. I angled the ends, added dimensionals and attached it in the center of the card. I added three Festive Pearls in silver.
For the envelope: more of the same pattern from Beary Christmas 12×12 DSP for the flap trimmed to fit; and this adorable bear stamped across the envelope front in Misty Moonlight ink using the Beary Cute stamp set.
OK, I mentioned these stamps and dies will be available Sep 6 via the Mini 2023 Sep-Dec catalog.

Good Thursday morning! How’s your week going? Mine is good, lots going on, but that’s OK. Working with others is medicine for my soul :O) We have a sketch challenge for our hop today and I’m excited to share a new product from the Mini Sep-Dec 2023 Catalog – or maybe a few new products. :O)
Let me just say, I am LOVING this bundle! This comes in a suite of products called Joy Of Christmas and includes two stamp sets with dies, stunningly glorious DSP (2 packs), ribbon and gems & sequins. They may be found on pages 28-31 in the Min Sep-Dec 2023 Catalog. If you don’t have a catalog, reach out to me… I can ‘fix’ that!
This is a slimline card… card base is Shaded Spruce card stock with a layer of some of this gorgeous Joy of Christmas 12 x 12 DSP then a layer of Vellum adhered to that and a smaller piece of another panel of the Joy of Christmas 12×12 DSP. Then… I took out this glorious die for the background banner. It includes these off-shoots of leaves and holly, etc. I decided to die cut from yet another panel of the Joy of Christmas 12×12 DSP. I pulled out the Joy of Noel Dies to die cut holly (from Garden Green card stock) and pine sprigs (from Shaded Spruce card stock.) These were added to the back of the banner die cut from DSP with Stampin’ Seal then added to the card front with dimensionals. I pulled out a Basic White scrap and stamped this fun mixed font message which is from Christmas Classics stamp set and stamped it in Shaded Spruce ink. I die cut that with a die from the Christmas Classics Dies and added it to the larger banner with dimensionals. I added the Real Red gems from the Loose Holly and Gems & Sequins Pack.
For the inside of the card… a piece of Real Red card stock with a layer of Basic White. Before adhering the Basic White panel I stamped it with the holly in Shaded Spruce ink, then the sentiment in Real Red ink. Both come from Christmas Classics stamp set.
Stampin’ Up! does not have envelopes that fit this size card, but I happened to have one in red :O). I stamped the cute holly stamp in Shaded Spruce ink on the front and on the envelope flap – and then didn’t take a picture of it. Ugh!
Card cuts for this card:
Shaded Spruce (card base): 7 x 8 1/2 scored @ 3 1/2 on the short side
Joy of Christmas 12×12 DSP: 2 5/8 x 8 1/2; 1 3/4 x 5 (plaid strip); 3 3/4 x 4 1/4 (banner die cut)
Vellum : 2 5/8 x 5 12
Real Red: 3 x 8 (inside)
Basic White: 2 1/2 x 7 1/2 (inside); 1 x 3 3/4 (front sentiment banner)

Good Wednesday morning! We took our walk early this morning and it was sprinkling just a bit – and you know what, it was refreshing. :O) But you aren’t here for that… I have a really F-U-N card for you today.
What I like about this card: colors, three dimension, texture and fun fold! All these wrapped up in one :O) I used Masterfully Made DSP for each of the panels; Gorgeously Made bundle for the die cuts and sentiment; Adhesive-Backed Sequin Trio Pack and Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack; and Vellum. The card base is Berry Burst. Here’s a view from the top.
Here’s a view of the back where you add your additional message.
This was stamped in Pretty Peacock ink and the stamp is from Gorgeously Made stamp set;Basic White panel.
Envelope front and envelope back…
The envelope front was stamped in Pretty Peacock ink. The envelope flap was stamped in second generation Smoky Slate – both stamps from Gorgeously Made stamp set.

The theme for today’s hop is “Fall Frenzy” and I had such fun creating these cute treat bags. The hop is Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop.
The background for the fall tags are the wonderful 2023-2025 In Color Treat Bags.
The tag bases are Copper Clay for 2 and Wild Wheat for one (2 1/2 x 4 1/2). I marked the center & punched the ribbon opening with the Very Best Trio Punch, then used that same punch to trim the top corners. Setting that aside, I worked on the rest of cutting & punching and using the sponge dauber :O). Using the smallest of the Radiating Stitched Dies and Crumb Cake, I cut three pieces. I used a sponge dauber & Cajun Craze ink to color the edges to give each a more rustic look. I cut pieces of Them Bones DSP (from the soon to be released – Sep 6 – Mini 2023 Sep-Dec Catalog), just a bit larger that the Crumb Cake piece. I adhered these two together then to another piece, again slightly larger in Wild Wheat. I guess there is one of these I did the other way around! I added these to the tag base with dimensionals. I then stamped these gorgeous leaves from the Autumn Leaves stamp set, inking them with a sponge dauber in Cajun Craze, Wild Wheat & Lemon Lime Twist inks. They were stamped on a Basic White scrap. Then veins were stamped with Wild Wheat ink. then die cut with the appropriate die from Autumn Leaves Dies. From Pumpkin Pie card stock I punched three ovals for each tag using the Double Oval Punch. I sponged the edges of each of these ovals in Copper Clay then adhered them together to create a pumpkin. The center oval is on dimensionals :O) The leaves were attached to the tag with liquid glue, and the pumkins added next. I tied a double loop bow using Linen Thread and attached it with liquid glue. The ribbons used are: Textured Ribbon in Wild Wheat and that was tied with Lemon Lime Twist from the Ribbon Combo Pack. I adhered them to the bag with Stampin’ Seal. The bag top is simply folded over.
Now, be sure to visit the others on the hop today for they will have some fun ‘fall frenzy’ designs to share. Click on the links or click on a name.

This is a quick and easy card made for a friend who is undergoing chemo treatments and feeling really weak and tired. A pretty card is always a special ‘lift me up’ and lets the other person know they are being prayed for and love is being sent.
The colors are striking, aren’t they? One of the keys is pulling together colors from the DSP so it really ‘shines’. I’ve used Calypso Coral card stock for a layer, with Garden Green as the card base. And I’ve used the Deckled Rectangles Dies to cut the papers and the Distress Tile 3D embossing folder to create more texture for the card front. The ribbon is from the Real Red & Burlap Ribbon Combo Pack and the sentiment is stamped in Calypso Coral ink on a Basic White scrap using the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set, then die cut with the Wonderful Thoughts Dies. For additional sparkle I added three Blooming Pearls.
For the inside of the card, lots of room for sending cheer and a friendly message. A 5/8″ strip added to the Basic White panel, then a left over piece that has the deckled edge from the die cuts above. Both papers come from the Garden Walk 6×6 DSP package of papers.
For the envelope I used a couple of other products: Subtles 6×6 DSP in Calypso Coral for the envelope flap, trimmed to fit; and for the front these adorable stamped-off Calypso Coral flowers from Petal Park stamp set.
The Garden Walk 6×6 DSP, Distress Tile 3D embossing folder and the Blooming Pearls are all from the Mini 2023 September-December Catalog and can be ordered September 6. If you are interested in ordering those products now and get 20% off in the bargain, it’s easy to join my teamhere. And when you do join my team, there are other benefits as well.

Good Friday morning! I hope you have something fun planned for the weekend, cuz it’s a coming :O) I have a sneaky peek of a new bundle and a set of dies from the Mini 2023 September-December Catalog. The bundle is Beary Cute stamp set with coordinating Beary Cute bear punch. The Deckled Circle Dies are also featured prominently. Oh, and there’s an embossing folder too – Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder. These products may be found on pages 22-24 in the Mini Catalog.
Aren’t these the cutest bears! The big bear was punched from the Beary Christmas 12×12 DSP. The other two bears I fussy cut from the same paper. The circles were die cut from Misty Moonlight card stock using the new Deckled Circles Dies – love. The largest circle I ran through the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder after die cutting. Each bear was attached to its own circle with dimensionals. I set these aside to create the card base: Thick Basic White, standard A2 size; Old Olive 4 x 5 1/4 with a panel of Beary Christmas DSP just slightly smaller. These two top pieces were adhered together then added to the card front with dimensionals. Theen the circles with bears were attached with liquid glue. The medium circle does have a folded over length of Glittered Organdy Ribbon for an added bit of sparkle. I stamped the sentiment in Old Olive ink using the Beary Cute stamp set and a strip of Basic White. It was added to the card front with dimensionals. The final touch was these gorgeous Adhesive-Backed Glitter Sequins in white.
For the inside… the tree outline was stamped in full strength Old Olive ink; the inside of the tree was second generation Old Olive ink. The package is stamped in Real Red ink, and the sentiment in Old Olive ink. Each of these is from the Beary Cute stamp set. This Basic White panel was added to an Old Olive panel 4 x 5 1/4 then attached to the inside of the card.
The envelope… more of the same panel of Beary Christmas 12×12 DSP for the envelope flap trimmed to fit. The bears were stamped in stamped off Balmy Blue ink using stamps in the Beary Cute stamp set. Voila – another card for my Christmas stash :O)
With the introduction of a new catalog, I usually do Designer Series Paper Shares. So here’s my info:
