Want to know how I move my stamped images to the background (behind the tree trunks)? I have done this before with other sets, but just had to try it with the moose. The moose is a two step stamped image and I wasn't sure if it would work or not, but here is my first try! On the inside of the embossing folder, I tapped the side with the logo, direct ink to folder (Balmy Blue). This is the side where the tree trunks are recessed. After I am done inking with the Balmy Blue, I stamped my trees... Continue reading

This Gift Card Holder Card is so pretty in real life! The Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper with the Copper Foil Accents is beautiful and elegant. The layout of this card was inspired by Jill Olsen. My card is slightly different, but just think of all the possibilities with different paper and stamp sets and occasions! My head is spinning with all the cards I want to create with this layout. I am a designer series paper hoarder, so I will start cutting and creating with this basic layout. Measurements are below.

Finally getting to play with this bundle! My hubby had extensive back surgery, and was in the hospital Monday through Friday, and will have a long recovery, but I just had to have some stamping therapy! I love the Wrapped in Plaid 6" x 6" designer series paper! It has gold foil accents on some of the designs. This paper is just soooo pretty in real life. The bottom two cards of the top picture have 3 and/or 4 strips of the designer series paper. The strips blend in with the cardstock so it is hard to see. Stampin'Up! supplies... Continue reading

This bundle includes the Woven Heirlooms stamp set and the Heirloom Frames Dies and 3D Embossing Folders! You can also do the one number ordering of the whole Woven Threads Suite!

I love how several Stampin'Up! stamp sets and dies coordinate to make beautiful projects, whether it is a card or sampler or home decor! I made this card as a thank you for an online order for the Colorful Seasons stamp set, and the Seasonal Layers Dies. But I had the Sailing Home Bundle and the High Tide stamp set so just had fun combining all! Loved how it turned out! I actually used pieces from leftover projects. My card base was 8.5" x 11" with a 4.25" x 5.5" piece cut out. I scored at 4.25" and 5.5" also.... Continue reading

I love punches and I love it even more when the punch coordinates with designer series paper! I used the Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper for my strip on the side, and the snowman and hat were punched from the same designer series paper! One side of the sheets are winter-themed and the other side is glittery, some heavily glittered as is the snowman! The felt scarf is from the Let It Snow Embellishment Kit, which includes 60 stitched felt accents; 96 enamel shapes; 36 felt snowballs, washi tape, and a pretty designer box. Stampin'Up! supplies are below.... Continue reading

When I saw this beautiful designer series paper, I just had to pair it with the die from the Jolly Season Dies. The Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series paper is 6" x 6" and is a specialty paper because of the hand drawn designs with silver foil on one side and photographic imagery on the other. It is sooooo pretty. I am also using the Ornate Frames Dies again. They are so versatile as they can be used for many different sentiments or seasons. Stampin'Up! supplies are below. Just click to order. If you order the Holly Jolly Christmas... Continue reading

Reversible stamps! Love it! Be sure and watch the video below on how to stamp with this stamp set! I "season" my stamps first by stamping with Versamark a few times and then cleaning them. My "thankful" card shows that you don't have to have a Christmas card, but can stamp any season or sentiment to suit your needs. I just swapped out the Night Before Christmas Designer Series Paper with the Come to Gather designer series paper. Stampin'Up! supplies are below. Just click to order and if you order one of these bundles from me, I will send you... Continue reading

I am not a fan of coloring, but I do love this Santa and the Holly Jolly Christmas Bundle! And I love the Night Before Christmas Designer Series Paper! This card base does require 12" x 12" cardstock. I used Very Vanilla here and you can buy packages of just Very Vanilla or Whisper White with 12 sheets each, or Assorted Color Collections, but then you only get 2 of each color. My card base is 5.5" x 12", scored @ 4.25", 7.25", and 10.25". My designer series paper strips are 5.25" x 1.5", 5.25" x 2.75", and 5.25" x... Continue reading

Wow, I love the product in the Night Before Christmas Suite, pages 24 & 25 of the new Holiday Catalog! Yes, I have it all and I love the ease of one number ordering! I didn't use all the products on this Fun Fold Card but it will get used on future projects! This card is a basic card base of 8.5" x 5.5", scored in half. I used the Stitched Rectangles dies for the cut out on the front and the piece behind the "to be Jolly", and the inside white layer for your sentiment and signature. My designer... Continue reading

Made this card last month. I had a different idea, but this is what I ended up with. All the stamped images and sentiment, except for the moon splotches are from the Merry Moose stamp set. The moose is punched with Night of Navy card stock. There are moose stamps, but I just punched card stock. My moon splotches are from a stamp in the Geared Up Garage stamp set. This is a very easy card. I just tore my whisper white card stock, and sponged. Stampin'Up! supplies are below. Just click to order. If you order this bundle from... Continue reading

Our daughter and her husband surprised us with the pregnancy announcement by wearing Mommysaurus and Daddysaurus tshirts. I have already made and posted the card saying Look who's hatched, but this card is for her baby shower tomorrow. Since baby is not here yet, I covered up the hatched part of the egg with the leaves. The sentiment is from the Wonderful Moments stamp set. I used the Stamparatus to get the mirror stamping done so I could have my dinosaurs facing each other. Did you know that you can order several of the items in the Dinoroar Suite by... Continue reading

Fall is my favorite season. I love the crisp chill of the air, and no humidity! We have apple trees, but this year they didn't do so well. It may have had something to do with the April blizzard we had. I love punches so had to have the new Apple Builder Punch which is bundled with the Harvest Hellos stamp set. You can make pumpkins, too. I am using the Ornate Frames Dies again. Those dies are so versatile for any season or sentiment. I stamped and punched 6 or 7 apples for each 3D apple. Just stamp, punch,... Continue reading

The coffins are already die cut for you and you can decorate however spooky/creepy you want! You can even line the inside with ribbon and make them even more coffiny, (okay, not a word). I love the Boo to You stamp set and the Assorted Googly eyes, too. My inside Monster Mash Designer Series Paper is 2.75" x 9", scored at 3". This holds a regular size Hershey Bar. The Ornate Frames can either be purchased by themselves, or you can bundle them with the Spooktacular Bash Stamp Set, saving you 10%. I love these Ornate Frames. I used them... Continue reading

Here is another card made with the Silhouette Scenes bundle and the Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper! It is hard to see but I added the Heart Epoxy Droplets. I thought the hearts as raindrops would be fitting for an anniversary card. I heat embossed my sentiment and image with Black Embossing Powder, and the "forever" is die cut with the Sweet Silhouettes dies in the Black Foil. Stampin'Up! supplies are below. Just click to order. If you order this bundle from me, I will send you a card made with it, either this one or a different one. I... Continue reading

These two cards will go to two granddaughters that have birthdays in August. I did use Wink of Stella and Shimmery White card stock. The one unicorn is fussy cut and popped up with dimensionals. The other is stamped directly onto the card stock and then masked while I stamped the swirls. This is a perfect stamp set for those unicorn lovers! Stampin'Up! supplies are below.

Check out this Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper on page 167 of the Stampin'Up! Annual Catalog! There are 24 sheets, 4 each of 6 double sided designs. You can use the same measurements of this sheet and get 8 cards from each sheet! These measurements are cutting out the layout of this sheet and I did do some trimming, slightly. Play with it for your card fronts. This paper is thinner than our regular designer series paper, but is sooooo pretty. I used the Butterfly Wishes stamp set for my sentiments and butterflies. Basic supplies are listed below. Just... Continue reading

There is a story behind this card and it does use the retired And Many Mower stamp set for the lawnmowers in the background and the "many mower" sentiment on the inside. A dear friend lost some toes/partial toes when the mower ran over her foot. She is recovering in a nursing home so just had to send her this card. I bet it will be a one of a kind card that she will remember and maybe enjoy! Do you hang onto your retired sets? I do, and I am glad I did. I also used the Well Said... Continue reading

I really wanted to check out the Pressed Petals Specialty Washi Tape but I wasn't sure what to do with it. I love the flower it makes and it adds just the right finish to this card. There are two different rolls of washi tape in this package. One is narrow and is a script. Then this roll has 100 peel & stick petals, that are Merry Merlot and Very Vanilla. My top card has the Very Vanilla cardstock with an extra layer of Crushed Curry. The bottom card is stamped on Whisper White. I think both turned out beautiful!... Continue reading
