Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves and Fall

Whew – my computer seems to be OK today – wonder what happened? A gremlin maybe 🙂 Usually the computer transfers my photos immediately from my phone; yesterday it was over 24 hrs.! Today’s card uses the Gorgeous Leaves Bundle from the Jul-Dec 2021 Mini Catalog on page 47. I’ve paired it with Expressions In Ink Specialty DSP and Gold Foil Sheets, plus a couple of other Stampin’ Up! products.

Gorgeous Leaves Hello.1

What do you think? Two of the leaves are die cut from Gold Foil using the Intricate Leaves Dies and the other leaf is die cut from a piece of Expressions In Ink SDSP. And the background is another piece of the Expressions In Ink SDSP layered onto Gold Foil Sheet die cut with the Stitched Rectangle Dies. The sentiment was stamped prior to embossing the Basic White panel with the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder. The sentiment comes from the Artistically Inked stamp set and was stamped in Evening Evergreen. I added three (3) Matte Decorative Dots in Old Olive for a final touch. The Basic White panel was added to a Pear Pizzazz panel then to the front of the card (
Evening Evergreen is the card base!).

Gorgeous Leaves Hello.2

For the inside I wanted to bring in the color from the one maple leaf on the front of the card, so stamped the maple leaf with Cinnamon Cider ink, stamping off first then not re-inking. The Basic White panel was adhered to a piece of Pear Pizzazz then added to the inside of the card. And voila – the card is done.

sFor the front of the envelope, I chose the same maple leaf but stamped it in Pear Pizzazz ink to coordinate with the Expressions In Ink SDSP on the envelope flap. Done, done, done! I like this – the sentiment makes it so it could be a masculine card, thinking of you, just saying hello – lots of options. And I like the textures & color.

Stampin’ Up! Painted Christmas DSP Shows Off

WOOHOO! The Jul-Dec 2021 Catalog is L-I-V-E! Yay… Welcome. Today I’m sharing a card using the Painted Christmas DSP that is now available for purchase. It’s beautiful.

Painted C’mas DSP Shows Off.1

I’ve used a rather non-traditional color for the card base – Pear Pizzazz. It coordinates so well with this particular sheet of DSP. I’ve used the Christmas Season stamp set to stamp on the die cut sentiment banner in Soft Succulent 2nd generation. I used the Seasonal Labels Dies to create the banner. And finally, I used the Christmas to Remember stamp set to stamp the sentiment in Evening Evergreen. I set this aside while I put the card together.

  • Pear Pizzazz for the card base
  • Painted Christmas DSP adhered to Evening Evergreen card stock. Dimensionals on the back and adhered to the card base
  • Cut a length of Reversible Ribbon and adhere with glue dots.
  • Put dimensionals on the back of the sentiment banner and adhere over the ribbon
  • Add three Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels and the card front is complete.
Painted C’mas DSP Shows Off.2

For the inside I used a couple of the stamps in the Christmas Season stamp set to create a beautiful ‘header’. I used Soft Succulent 2nd for the larger leaf. I then stamped the pine needles in Evening Evergreen ink 2nd & 3rd generation. Of course, these were stamped on Basic White card stock. I adhered this to a panel of Evening Evergreen, then into the inside of the card.

Painted C’mas DSP Shows Off.3

For the envelope I added more of the same beautiful DSP to the envelope flap, then stamped the pine stamp from Christmas Season stamp set in Evening Evergreen. And – done. A quick card that is just beautiful. These stamps and dies may be found on pages 16-17 of the Jul-Dec 2021 Mini Catalog.

Remember that I mentioned the Jul-Dec 2021 Mini Catalog is now live – as of today! Click below to go straight to the catalog.

Stampin’ Up! Diagonal Gatefold Envelope

Hi there! It’s Wednesday the 28th – just days away from the END of the 15% off select DSP sale (Aug 2) and the LAUNCH of the Jul-Dec 2021 Mini Catalog (Aug 3) & Sale-a-bration catalogs (Aug 3 – Sep 30). WhooHoo! Shall we call this WooHoo Wednesday? Silliness, right? OK … today’s project is the envelope for a Diagonal Gatefold card. The card information was shared in yesterday’s post which you may see here. The envelope is created with one of the paper packs avail in the 2021- 2022 Annual Catalog called Pattern Party DSP. It is available when you make a purchase of $300 or more. The pack is wonderful – black & white on one side and colorful on the other. Below is the finished envelope for a look see. The “address” label on the front shows the other side of this particular piece.

Diagonal Gatefold Envelope.1

The how to…

  • Cut the DSP 8 1/2 x 12: score on the LONG side 3/4, 7 3/4; score on the SHORT side 7/8, 6 3/4
  • Burnish all score lines and trim – see photo for reference
Diagonal Gatefold Envelope.2
  • Use the Detailed Trio Punch to round the edges of the flap
  • Add Tear n Tape to the outside pieces just long enough for the fold up of the bottom.
  • Add Tear n Tape to the flap as well
Diagonal Gatefold Envelope.3
  • Fold up bottom and adhere. You can clearly see that I ran the Tear n Tape too long on the sides. I simply rolled it down once the covering was removed and it worked perfectly.
  • Using the Seasonal Labels Dies to cut a panel for the front to use as an address label. I used some of the same Pattern Party DSP for the label. The seasonal Labels Dies will be available in the Jul-Dec 2021 Mini Catalog beginning Aug 3. It is part of the Christmas Season Bundle.

Love how this envelope turned out – and so glad I had the Pattern Party DSP pack to use for it!

Stampin’ Up! Birthday w/ In Good Taste DSP Fun Fold

Happy Monday and all that… hope you enjoyed your weekend. We had spectacular weather, so good for working outside some. Today – well, hot and humid once more so working inside will be more productive I’m thinkin’.

Today’s card is super easy, a bit of a fun fold, perfect for using some In Good Taste DSP – which is on SALE for 15% off (more details below).

B’day w/ In Good Taste DSP.1

Both of the DSP on this card come from In Good Taste DSP pack and they look great together. One of the things about this card is it can so easily be a masculine card – or not. I appreciate its versatility. This smaller strip of DSP looks as though it has texture, but doesn’t. It also opens to the inside of the card. In other words, The background DSP is a flat surface :O). Here’s how to do this…

  • Night of Navy card base is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
  • In Good Taste DSP layer is 4 x 5 1/4
  • Basic White panel 2 1/2 x 10 1/2, with DSP layer (2 1/2 x 5 1/4) adhered to the front of it
  • Basic White panel adhered to card base
  • Add Just Jade strip (1/4 x 5 1/4) left of panel
  • Create sentiment strip
    • stamp sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink on a Basic White strip (1/2 x 3 1/2); angle end.
    • add BW strip to Night of Navy (5/8 x 3 3/4) with liquid glue; angle end
    • add Flowers for Every Season Ribbon in Just Jade to the sentiment strip w/ Seal+
    • put dimensionals on the back of the panel and add to card panel
    • add three Playing with Resin Dots in Just Jade to the left of the sentiment
B’day w/ In Good Taste DSP.2

For the inside… stamp the sentiment in Just Jade ink using the Pansy Patch stamp set again. Add a strip of the In Good Taste DSP to the bottom of the panel – and voila! This card is complete.

B’day In Good Taste DSP.3

For the envelope i did some fussy cutting of the In Good Taste DSP to create a fun edge and adhered it to the env envelope flap… done.done.done.

I like how easy this card was to make and how fun to have a different width for the additional panel. If you wanted, you could easily add a Basic White panel (4 x 5 1/4) to the back of the card to have more writing space. Remember this DSP is currently 15% off – see more info below.

Stampin’ Up! Cork DSP Sneak Peek

Hello again – happy Saturday! It is one gorgeous day here on the East coast and I am enjoying the freshness of the air. I am creating my post while on the front porch 🙂 It has been so exceedingly hot lately that I would not have even considered doing this earlier in the week. But here we are… I hope you have something fun planned for today.

My card today is super easy – and uses the new (out Aug 3 in the Jul-Dec 2021 Mini Catalog) Cork 12 x 12 DSP. I like using our Note Cards & Envelopes, so this is one of those. Here’s the cork is a close-up photo.

Cork w/ Dragonfly Garden.1

Can you see the wonderful texture in this cork? It’s easy to work with. I’ve layered this on Pear Pizzazz and adhered them both to the Basic White Note Card with liquid glue. I then die cut a Basic White piece using the Tailor Made Tags Dies and stamped it with the Dragonfly Garden stamp with Early Espresso ink. I love this stamp! It is one of my favorites. I then colored it using various Markers: Pear Pizzazz, Bumblebee, Highland Heather and Soft Suede. I added a sweet Bumblebee trinket and then some Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon, put dimensionals on the back and added it to the card. Simple, sweet and it would make a nice gift set if several were made. I may do that – we’ll see. If I do, I would probably put them in a similarly decorated mini Paper Pumpkin box. Hmmm – another project, another post 🙂

Cork w/ Dragonfly Garden.2

Here you can see the finished project. With the envelope I covered the flap with Subtles 6×6 DSP in Pear Pizzazz and stamped the front with the same stamp but chose not to color it. It’s beautiful as is.

Stampin’ Up! Painted Christmas Suite

Yesterday I indicated today’s card would b e from the new catalog – and it definitely IS! This Painted Christmas Suite has just beautiful products in it: Gold Holly Leaves; two stamp bundles (yes! TWO!), ribbon (not used on this card), and gorgeous, gorgeous Designer Series Paper.

Painted C’mas Suite.1

Here you can see the Gold Holly Leaves (adhered with a glue dot), these extra fun banner dies, and the stunning pine cone dies. The pine cone dies are in two parts: a more solid background and the more intricate top layer. I die cut the more solid layer in Basic White then there were a couple of single pine cone dies with the intricate pattern – and those were die cut from Shimmer paper. (there is also a large intricate die, but I chose not to use that here.) These were adhered to the DSP with liquid glue.

The sentiment banner is two separate dies and the cute little white ‘add on’ are also part of it. The larger is die cut from Evening Evergreen card stock and layered on the card with dimensionals. The small white pieces were added with just a dot of liquid glue. The sentiment is from Christmas to Remember stamp set (in the suite of products), stamped in Evening Evergreen and added with dimensionals. Then the Gold Holly Leaves were attached with glue dots.

The layers are: Evening Evergreen card base, Basic White and the Painted Christmas DSP.

Painted C;mas Suite.2

For the inside the sentiment is from the Painted Christmas stamp set and the pine needles are from Christmas Season stamp set – both stamped in Evening Evergreen on the Basic White panel.

Painted C’mas Suite.3

Here it is much easier to see how beautiful this piece of DSP is – on the envelope flap. And the pine needle stamp is the same used on the inside of the card stamped in Evening Evergreen.

This suite of products includes two stamp bundles: Christmas Season, which includes images of pine cones, berrries, leaf spray, holly leaves and more and it’s coordinating Seasonal Labels Dies; and Christmas To Remember stamp set that has various sentiments and it’s coordinating Christmas Pinecone Dies that includes the dies (and more) that I used on the card front. As mentioned earlier, this suite also includes the Gold Holly leaves, the ribb on and the DSP – all to coordinate. They may b e found on pages 16-19 of the Jul-Dec Mini Catalog.If you do not have a catalog, nor a demonstrator, I can help you with that. 😁 Items from this catalog will be available to customers August 3.

As a thank you to my customers, when the order is between $50-$150 I offer a SU! item of your choice valued at $10. Remember to use MY NEW HOST CODE for July – 4TKMUNQH . When the order is over $150, you still receive that free gift from me, but SU! has Stampin’ Rewards that may be used for additional products, so don’t use the host code at that time.
