Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Stampin' Up! Color Challenge for the hop

Stampin' Up! Unbounded Beauty Th hop 7/25

This is one of those ‘ideas’ to save to use for just about any DSP. Notice how the DSP image goes across the page, so when it was cut, it was intentional to cut it so the image ‘flowed across’. I does depend how the card is opened. If it opend from the top, the DSP ‘image’ would be from top/ down. got it?

Basics:

Card base 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 (opens from side) [Summer Splash]
Layer: 3 3/4 x 4 1/4 [Pretty in Pink]
DSP layer: 3 1/2 x 3 3/4 cut into thirds so 1 1/4 x 3 1/2 [Unbounded Beauty DSP]

Instructions:

Add DSP to layer, wrap with ribbon & secure w/ glue dot at knot
Add this to card front w/ dimensionals
Create die cuts and slip under ribbon, adhering w/ liquid glue (die cuts are from Flowers of Beauty Dies & cut from Summer Splash and Berry Burst card stocks)
Stamp sentiment (Berry Burst ink using Unbounded Love stamp set); die cut (Unbounded Love Dies) and add with glue dot or dimensionals, depending on ribbon
Add embellishments (24-26 In Color Resin Dots Pretty In Pink)

Card inside:

Layer: 3 1/2 x 4 1/4
Basic White: 3 1/4 x 4

Products used:

Unbounded Beauty DSP
Unbounded Love Bundle
Flowers of Beauty Bundle
Frayed 3/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon
24-26 In Color Resin Dots (Pretty in Pink)
Summer Splash card stock
Pretty in Pink card stock
Basic White card stock
Inks: Berry Burst (front), Pretty in Pink & Summer Splash

Envelope… more Unbounded Beauty DSP on the flap trimmed to fit; leaf from Flowers of Beauty stamped in Summer Splash full strength and then second generation.

And there you have it – all done! Change up the color of card stock, DSP, ribbon, die cuts and it becomes an entirely different card!

Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on July 18, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Hello Thursday! And that means another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We have a sketch challenge today and I’ve chosen to work with the Wildflower Designs stamp set, the Labeled with Love Punch and Full of Life 6×6 DSP to create my card.

Stampin' Up! Wildflower Designs card front

I began by punching these fun shapes using the Labeled with Love Punch and Basic White card stock. I used scraps but you could cut two pieces 2 1/2 x 4 1/2. I stamped these with two different flower designs – in Memento ink using Wildflower Designs stamp set. I colored these with Stampin’ Blends In Colors: Peach Pie, Pretty In Pink, Petunia Pop and Shy Shamrock. I then used the Summer Splash ink and the splotch stamp in the same Wildflower Designs stamp set, stamped it off once and then on the flower. I varied the placement of the stamping so it didn’t look too uniform. With the stamping and coloring completed, I cut a Full of Life 6×6 DSP 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, added two strips of Pretty in Pink card stock 1 x 4 1/8 with stampin’ Seal, then added the stamped flowers with dimensionals. I like to place my center panels first, then use equal spacing for the rest. I wrapped Black Bakers Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack around the card three times and tied a bow, securing it with a glue dot. I put dimesnionals on the DSP and adhered it to a Petunia Pop card base – 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. My final touch for the card front was adding Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins in two colors.

Stampin' Up! Wildflower Designs card inside

For the inside, I stamped the sentiment in Memento ink using the Wildflower Designs stamp set. I added a 1/2 x 4 strip of the same DSP as the card front. I also had a length of the Black Baker’s Twine that I tied in a bow and added as an enhancement. This panel was adhered in place and the card was complete.

Stampin' Up! Wildflower Dedsigns card & envelope front

Stampin' Up! Wildflower Designs card & envelope back

For the envelope – a bit of another panel of Full of Life 6×6 DSP on the flap adhered in place and trimmed to fit. I stamped another of the pretty flowers from Wildflower Designs stamp set on the DSP and yet another flower on the envelope front – both in Memento ink. Again, I used the splotch stamp and Summer Splash ink to stamp over the flower in second generation ink. This is such a happy card – and I know to whom I’ll send it!

Stampin’ Up! Charming Duck Pond for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on July 11, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Today we have a theme challenge titled ‘birds’ and I have chosen to use the Charming Duck Pond bundle & it’s coordinating Lily Pond Lane 6×6 DSP – and made another front flap fun fold :O) For my birds – I chose to use these sweet ducks.

Oh my goodness – such a cute array of stamps and dies in this bundle. I especially like the dies! So let me explain how I did this card.

The card base is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 in Pretty Peacock. I layered it with a panel of 4 x 5 1/4 Lily Pond Lane 6×6 DSP. I cut another piece of Pretty Peacock card stock 3 x 8 1/2 and scored it at 4 1/4. This was adhered to the card base front with the fold at the top and centered – this is the front flap fold. I decorated this first with another piece of Lily Pond Lane 6×6 DSP in the same pattern as the card front, cut 2 3/4 x 4 and adhered it in place. From a Basic White panel 4 x 3 3/4 I centered this stunning circle die that cuts & embosses the fun design. It has cattails and reeds and lily pads – perhaps you can see the embossing on the cattails from this die. I created another die cut with Granny Apple Green card stock 1 x 3 for additional lily pads – and a scrap of Pretty Peacock for one more lily pad – and a flower in Pretty in Pink card stock. I layered these in place with liquid glue. The additional reed and cattails were die cut from another piece of the Lily Pond Lane 6×6 DSP and adhered these also with liquid glue. I took yet another piece to showcase these adorable ducks & cut this 3 7/8 x 3 5/8 and adhered it to the back of the Basic White die cut. These I added to another piece of Pretty Peacock cut 4 1/8 x 3 7/8 and adhered this to the front flap. For a sentiment… I used the Labeled with Love Punch and Pretty Peacock to create the sentiment banner. I cleaned the piece with the embossing buddy then stamped the sentiment in VersaMark ink, then sprinkled with embossing powder over it and heat set with the heat tool. I punched another banner from basic White and adhered it to the back, trimmed the one end so as not to cover mamma duck and adhered it in place with liquid glue. As a final touch I added three Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins and the card front was complete.

For the inside I took a piece of basic White 2 3/4 x 4 and added a strip of Lily Pond Lane 6×6 DSP, then attached this to the inside of the flap. Done!

Stampin' Up! Charming Duck Pond card & envelope back

The envelope back has a piece of Lily Pond Lane 6×6 DSP adhered & trimmed to fit. The envelope front is stamped with two images from Charming Duck Pond stamp set in Memento ink, then colored with other stamps in the set: the duck… beak & feet with Pretty in Pink ink, body in Gray Granite ink, tail feathers in Pretty Peacock ink; the frog… body in Granny Apple Green ink and the lily pad in Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends. What a fun set! Hope you enjoy this card.

Stampin’ Up! Fun Fold for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

Posted on July 9, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

We have a fun fold challenge for this Tuesday team blog hop and I’m using several of the new ONLINE EXCLUSIVE products from the Season of Green & Gold Suite Collection. Let’s take a peek.

Stampin' Up! Season of Green & Gold Easy Flap Fun Fold card front

This card is called a Front Flap Fun Fold.n I did a bit of die cutting using the Golden Greenery Dies and Season of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper (better known as SDSP) and the Graceful Greenery Vellum. The bells are die cut from the SDSP and the wonderful fronds from the vellum.

Card instructions:

Card base is Mossy Meadow 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Layer a panel of SDSP (here I used the Season of Green & Gold SDSP, plaid pattern), attaching with adhesive.
Cut a 3 x 8 1/2 Mossy Meadow piece and score at 4 1/4: attach to center of card, with fold at top of card base.
Cut 2 panels of Basic White 2 3/4 x 4 1/4 & decorate
- Front panel of Basic White
  - I cut two Garden Green fronds and one Old Olive frond from the Graceful Greenery Vellum and adhered to one of the Basic White panels, centering them at top
  - I die cut the single bells from the Season of Green & Gold SDSP, adhered them together then added them over the fronds with dimensionals
  - I added a double Linen Thread bow to the top of the bells with a glue dot.
  - Stamp the sentiment and ampersand sign in Cherry Cobbler ink using the Greetings of the Season stamp set (this also comes as a bundle – with dies – but I did not use those for this card)
  - Embellish with several Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems
  - Adhere this panel to the folded Mossy Meadow
- Inside panel of Basic White
  - Stamp the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink using the Greetings of the Season stamp set
  - Stamp the fronds detail stamp in stamped off once Mossy Meadow ink
  - Stamp the fronds full stamp in stamped off twice Mossy Meadow ink
  - Add panel to inside of flap card panel – and done!

Now for the envelope… cover the flap in a piece of the Season of Green & Gold SDSP and trim to fit. On the envelope front, stamp a different detail front in stamped off once Old Olive ink. Stamp the full frond in stamped off twice Old Olive ink – and this card is ready for that Christmas card pile.

Stampin’ Up! Season of Green & Gold for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on July 4, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

We have a fun sketch challenge today and I’m sharing a sneak peek of new DSP that’s part of the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES and a suite of products: Season of Green & Gold 12×12 SDSP, Greetings of the Season stamp set (it’s a bundle really, but I only used the stamp set), and Golden Greenery stamp set (also a bundle but only used the stamp set for this card.)

Stampin' Up! Season of Green & Gold SDSP card front

This DSP is gorgeous – and I used the Basic Borders Dies for the fun accent trim. The final touch was adding Pecan Pie Ribboned Adhesive-Backed Dots. To create this card…the card base is Garden Green card stock cut 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 and scored at 4 1/4. I added a piece of the Season of Green & Gold SDSP cut 4 x 5 1/4 and adhered directly to the card base. I turned this same SDSP over to the other side and cut a piece 2 1/2 x 3, then trimmed it at an angle. I adhered only the far left corner to the card front. With the Basic Border dies and a strip of Old Olive 3/4 x 5, I cut a trim piece, then adhered that to a piece of Very Vanilla 1 x 5, then slipped it under the corner piece, adhering it in place. After all was adhered in place, I trimmed the overlapping Basic Border trims. I then added three embellishments in Pecan Pie from the Pecan Pie and Clear Ribboned Adhesive-Backed Dots.

Stampin' Up! Greetings of the Season, inside card

For the inside, I cut a Very Vanilla panel 4 x 5 1/4 and stamped it in Garden Green ink with the Greetings of the Season sentiment stamp. I added a strip of Basic Border die cut in Garden Green to coordinate with the card front.

Stampin' Up! Season of Green & Gold SDSP card & envelope

For the envelope, I added a piece of the Season of Green & Gold 12×12 SDSP to the envelope flap then stamped the front of the envelope using the Golden Greenery stamp set and the pine bough stamp – first in Old Olive ink, then the detail pine bough in Mossy Meadow ink. And WooHoo, first holiday card!

Now, just have to say… I had unfinished elements of a card on my desk (anyone else have that?) and decided to use the pieces to follow the sketch. This card uses some retired SU! products but also uses a current bundle called Stippled Roses. The roses were stamped in Smoky Slate ink and colored with Blending Brushes and several inks: Pretty in Pink, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, and Old Olive. After coloring I used Wink of Stella to add glam to all the dark lines of the design. The leaf die cuts are from Old Olive card stock. The embellishments are Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins – another ONLINE EXCLUSIVE. The card base is Thick Basic White. The additional layers are Smoky Slate and a retired free DSP the name of which I do not remember. On the inside of the card is stamped the gorgeous leaves from Stippled Roses stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink. I will add shopping information for this card as well, but separately. My main purpose is to share how using a sketch can bring a different level of creativity depending on the stamps/ dies/ and other elements used. Hope you enjoyed this bit of ‘extra’.

Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop Group

Posted on June 11, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Welcome! It is the 2nd Tuesday of the month and time for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop. I hope you enjoy the creations you see today. The theme is ‘celebrate summer’ and we can interpret that any way that inspires. I think you may see a lot of different ideas here today. I have chosen to work with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper and the Country Birdhouse bundle to prepare today’s card.

Stampin' Up! Country birdhouse card front

This card uses two particular bundles: Country Birdhouse and it’s coordinating dies and Nested Friends and it’s coordinating dies. Nested Friends is now an ONLINE EXCLUSIVE set, while Country Birdhouse is in the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. I began by making the birdhouse portion first then the rest of the card followed.

Directions:

Fold a piece of the Country Woods DSP (8 1/2 x 11 to 4 1/4 x 11)
Lay the birdhouse die (from Country Birdhouse Dies) along the fold line with one side of the roofline extending beyond the cutting line until it is OVER the fold – meaning it will NOT cut along the fold. (You can place either side of the roof beyond the fold). Die cut. You now have a birdhouse that opens & closes along one side of the roof. :O) YAY!
Die cut the hole opening using the appropriate die
Die cut the additional roof decorations from Country Woods DSP – noting the direction of the grain (this happens to be the Misty Moonlight color in the pack)
Die cut the bottom panel on the birdhouse – adhere all pieces. There is one die cut from Basic White and I layered it over the other two, where they are adhered together.
See that little small circle piece below the opening – that is supposed to indicate a landing spot for the birds!
Stamp the bird on the front in Memento ink and color with Watercolor Pencils: Real Red, Early Espresso, Basic Gray
- These are house finches – the male has the red head and a bit of red down the front breast. Intermixed is some gray & brown.
- I used short strokes, not covering the entire bird at once, to make it look more like feathers.
- I colored the eye with a Basic Black Marker using the fine tip end
- I clipped the beak down the center of it, cut a short length of Linen Thread, took the fibers apart and ‘encouraged’ them into the cut of the beak. I turned this item over and added a dot of liquid glue to secure the thread in place. I put dimensional on the bird and added it to the birdhouse front. The male finch is helping it’s partner build a nest – it’s what they do!
To create the opposite facing bird is called ‘reverse stamping’.
- Using Memento ink, ink the stamp and stamp a Window Sheet, then turn the window sheet over and place it on a Basic White scrap. Rub over the window sheet without it moving, then lift window sheet. A bird stamped in reverse has been created!
- Color it with Watercolor Pencils: mostly Early Espresso, Basic Gray, just a bit of real Red and some Crushed Curry. Keep going over this until satisfied with the result. This is a female finch!

Stampin' Up! Step 1 Reverse Stamping — Step 1: stamp window sheet

Stampin' Up! Step 2, turn window sheet over onto card stock, ink side down — Step 2: turn window sheet over, ink side on card stock

First of all, more photos should have been taken! What you are seeing is the female finch bird already die cut & adhered in place. :O(

I used the Nested Friends stamp set for the nest, inked with Early espresso ink then used a sponge dauber to add a bit of Copper Clay in places, then stamped it directly to the inside of the birdhouse. I adhered the female finch inplace with liquid glue. I diec ut another piece of Country Woods DSP for the bottom strip on the birdhouse inside.

The card base is Early Espresso, 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2. Adhered to that is a Country Woods panel 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 that I ran through the Timber 3D embossing folder. I stamped this wonderful branch in Early espresso ink using the Nested Friends stamp set, then die cut it with Nested Friends Dies. I adhered the tree branch in place with mini stampin’ dimensionals. I took a length of Linen Thread and put it over the branch and adhered it in place with Seal+. I adhered the birdhouse over that with liquid glue – to make it appear as though the birdhouse was hanging from the tree branch.

With the card front complete, I worked on the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse card w/ Nested Friends

I began by stamping the branch from Nested Friends in Early Espresso ink on the Basic White panel. Using the Country Birdhouse stamps, I stamped the bird on the left in Memento ink, then stamped the bird on the right using the Reverse Stamping method. I colored the leaves with Stampin’ Blends: Granny Apple Green. I stamped the sentiment from Country Birdhouse in Early espresso ink. With the stamping complete, I adhered this to a slightly larger Misty Moonlight, then to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Country Birdhouse card & envelope

For the envelope, I used more of the Country Woods DSP to add to the flap, trim to fit. I stamped the bird on the right side using the reverse stamping technique as mentioned above.

Stampin’ Up! Full of Life & Flowers of Beauty Dies for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on May 30, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

It’s Thursday and time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We have a color challenge today and I can hardly wait to see what others on the team have created.

Stampin' Up! Happy Inki9n' Thursday Blog Hop color challenge

Stampin' Up! Full of Life DSP & Flowers of Beauty Dies card front

Aren’;t these great colors? Bright, cheery, happy colors. I have someone specific in mind for this card. It was really quite quick and simple – and sometimes that’s best.

I began with a 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2, Basic White card base and adhered a piece of the Full of Life 6×6 DSP to the front (4 1/4 x 5 1/2). I die cut the fronds using the Flowers of Beauty Dies and adhered with dabs of glue. I stamped the sentiment on a piece of Basic White using Pumpkin Pie ink and the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set. I die cut this with the Stitched Shapes Dies. I folded over a piece of the Bordered Ribbon in Peach Pie and added it with glue dots over the fronds. I put dimensionals on the die cut circle sentiment and placed it over the ribbon. Finally, I added three Opal Rounds Assortment in Night of Navy.

For the inside, I stamped the sentiment in Pumpkin Pie ink using another stamp in the Wonderful thoughts stamp set and another panel of Basic White 4 x 5 1/4. I added this to the inside of the card, then adhered a strip of the Full of Life DSP at the bottom, full width of 4 1/4.

Stampin' Up! Full of Life & Flowers of Beauty Dies card & envelope

For the envelope, I took a piece of the Full of Life 6×6 DSP cut 2 1/4 x 6, adhered it to the envelope flap – and that was it. I love the simplicity but also the effectiveness of this card – full of thanks and appreciation.

Stampin’ Up! Wildly Flowering DSP for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on May 23, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Good morning! Happy Thursday and welcome to our hop… We have a sketch challenge today and I have chosen to create two cards using the Wildly Flowering 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. One is a bit simpler than the other, just to show a comparison.

Stampin' Up! Wildly Flowering DSP card front

This DSP is so stunning… love the colors and pretty images too! You notice I took a bit of liberty with the sketch by changin g where I placed the sentiment. I did not want to cover up the flower! Here are the basics:

Card base is 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 (Misty Moonlight)
DSP largest layer 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 adhered directly to card front
Bubble Bath layer 3 1/4 x 4 1/2 adhered directly to DSP layer
DSP layer 3 1/8 x 4 3/8 adhered directly to Bubble Bath layer
Sentiment is stamped in Moody Mauve ink on 5/8 x 3 Basic White (Sweetly Scripted stamp set – ONLINE ONLY). This was added with dimensionals
Embellishment: Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls, 3

Stampin' Up! Textured Floral stamp set, inside of card

For the inside… A layer of Bubb leBath card stock cut 4 x 5 1/4 was adhered directly to the inside of the card. A Basic White panel was stamped with images from the Textured Floral stamp set: Bubble Bath for the flower/ Moody Mauve for the stamen. For the leaves, I inked them with Old Olive ink then used the Mossy Meadow Marker to add some depth and shadow. This panel (3 7/8 x 4 1/8) was added to the inside – and the card was complete.

Stampin' Up! Wildly Flowering DSP card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the same Wildly Flowering 12 x 12 DSP on the flap, trimmed to fit. On the front, Textured Floral stamp set, Bubble Bath ink for the flower and Moody Mauve for the stamen. This completes the look and coordinates the entire card. :O)

Here is the other, more minimalistic card – no stamping except for the sentiment: Sweetly Scripted in Moody Mauve ink and same Flat Adhesive- Backed Pearls.

Stampin' Up! Wildly Flowering DSP Card 2, card & envelope

Stampin' Up! Wildly Flowering DSP, card 2, inside

This card 2 is so similar, yet, simpler. Forthe beginning crafter, little stamping and supplies needed. Must the sentiment be on dimensionals – no! Must the beginning crafter add embellishments – no! I did because I like the look of layers and depth dimensionals create, and I like the added embellishments, but it is NOT necessary. Use what you have. Could I have added a Linen Thread bow behind the sentiment – on both cards? Absolutely!!! But for this, I kept it fairly simple.

Now, on with the hop… I can’t wait to see what others on the team have created! Click on the ‘next’ button or click on a name. Either way, enjoy the hop! See below how to purchase the products shown in this cardn. – from me!

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

Posted on May 16, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Thursday morning! You KNOW what Thursday means, right? A blog hop by this awesome group. You may have come from the creative team member Tara or just hopped right in here – however you got here, welcome. We have a theme challenge of outdoors today – and I have chosen to work with the Thoughtful Wishes bundle and the Thoughtful Journey 6×6 DSP – and created a fun fold for you :O)

Not sure what to call this fun fold, Center Pleat maybe – it was inspired by Susan Campfield who did a multi-pleat with 12 x 12 DSP. Thoughtful Journey DSP is 6×6 and I did not purchase the tutorial from Susan – just played around with this until it worked :O)

Begin with a card base 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 – this particular card is Boho Blue. For the card front, I wanted to use the new So Swirly dry embossing folder and ran a 4 x 5 1/4 Basic panel through it and adhered it to the card front. I stamped three images of the floral stamp from Thoughtful Wishes stamp set on Basic White – coloring the stamp with Stampin’ Write Markers to do so… Blackberry Bliss for the flower and Mossy Meadow for the stem/ leaves. I added these colors after each stamping. Because of the inside DSP I chose, I wanted these to look like a water color – soft and less defined images – so… I took my Water Painter, squeezed it until the brush was wet, then added just brush strokes of water on the flowers and then the leaves. I really like the effect it gave. I had tried spritzing the inked stamp but it didn’t give me what I was looking for, that’s why the water painter. Then I die cut the images with the coordinating Thoughtful Wishes Dies. I also stamped the leaf/weed image in Mossy Meadow ink and mov ed the ink on all the leaves with the water painter – die cut it with a coordinating die as well. I adhered the one flower image directly to the card front with liquid glue, attaching it at an angle to make it look as though it were being blown over by the swirling wind :O) I added trimmed down dimensionals to both the leaf image and the remaining flower image and added them as you see them. I stamped the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink and fussy cut it with my paper snips, adding dimensionals to it as well. I had an extra leaf and slipped it under the sentiment, attaching with a dab of adhesive. Finally – three Purple Fine Shimmer Gems to complete complete the card front.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey 6x6 DSPb & Center Pleat Fun Fold

The inside… this is so pretty – well, I think so anyway… the Thoughtful Journey DSP is just so, so pretty – with a definite watercolor appeal n- maybe as though it were raining outside and looking through a wet windowpane. :O) Anyway – this is the image I chose, cut 4 x 4 1/2, scored at 1 1/4, 2 1/4 and 3 1/4. Burnish as valley, mountain, valley. Adhere only the end portions of this folded piece, keeping the center fold in the middle. The two end panels are: Blackberry Bliss cut 2 7/8 x 3 7/8 and adhered with even margins on each side. The Basic White panels are 2 3/4 x 3 3/4 with the piece on the left run through the So Swirly dry embossing folder then adhered. Again, the remaining die cut flower was attached with liquid glue. The other panel is left plain for writing your message. The sentiment is stamped on a Basic White strip with Mossy meadow ink and adhered with Stampin’ Seal just on the left side. The card doesn’t really need it but I added it nonetheless.

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey Center Pleat Fun Fold, looking down from the top

This is what the card looks like looking down from the top. It stands for display to show off that gorgeous inside.

The envelope got more of the Thoughtful Journey DSP attached to the flap and trimmed to fit. The front got this same leaves stamp in Mossy Meadow ink and the ink ‘moved around’ with a water painter. I love this look!

Stampin’ Up! Take To The Sky Suite for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

Posted on May 14, 2024 by TL's Bright Spot

WELCOME TO AMY’S INKIN’ KREW TEAM BLOG HOP! We have a theme challenge for today – ‘for the boys/ men’ and we can interpret that any way we like. I chose to use the Take To The Sky Suite for the challenge.

Stampin' Up! Amy's Inkin' Krew Team Blog Hop

Stampin' Up! Adventurous Sky Birthday card front

The Take to T/he Sky 12×12 DSP is so perfect for the flyers in our lives or for anyone really. Here’s what I did for this card…

The card base is 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 Smoky Slate card stock scored at 4 1/4. I added the plaid pattern in Smoky Slate from the Take To The Sky 12×12 DSP cut 4 14 x 5 1/2. I then took a design from the Take to The Sky 12×12 cut 3 x 4 and added it to Cajun Craze card stock cut 3 1/8 x 4 1/8. This got dimensionals and was attached to the card front, centering it. I stamped an airplane in Blueberry Bushel ink from the Adventurous Sky stamp set on a Basic White scrap and die cut it with a coordinating die from Adventurous Sky Dies. I used a Cajun Craze Watercolor Pencil to add some color to the plane, then moved the color around with a Blender Pen. I added the plane with a couple of small dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment on a Basic White scrap with Night of Navy ink, cut it apart and adhered it to a 1/4″ strip of Basic White, cut the end, added trimmed dimensionals and attached it to the card front, making it look as though the plane were carrying a banner in the sky.. The final touch was three Industrial Trinkets attached with glue dots -and the card front was complete.

Stampin' Up! Take To The Sky DSP for the card inside

For the inside of the card… another panel of the Take To The Sky DSP 3 x 4 adhered to a Basic White 3 1/8 x 4 1/8 and attached with glue to the inside of the card. The sentiment was stamped in Boho Blue ink using a stamp from Adventurous Sky stamp set. This was die cut with a coordinating die from Adventurous Sky Dies and added with glue to the inside of the card. I offset it to make it look as though it too was being trailed behind the airplane.

Stampin' Up! Take to the Sky Birthday card & envelope

For the envelope, I stamped another size plane from the Adventurous Sky stamp set, this time in Night of Navy ink – to the envelope front. On the flap I attached a piece of Take To The Sky 12×12 DSP and trimmed it to fit. And done! YAY! I love this card and it is so perfect for a special someone.
