Favorite Things: Clearance Rack

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~ Today I wanted to share a few of my favorite items from the Clearance Rack. I’ve already shown you the All Together Designer Paper, so lets see what else is on my list!

First up …. I had to pick the cute little Scottie Dog Punch

Here’s a cute Christmas card using the Scottie Dog punch ….

If you would like to see how I created the holiday pattern on this card CLICK HERE. I have another card sample for you … Halloween and using up some of my scrap designer paper.

Since we’re talking Halloween, let’s look at the Scary Silhouettes Dies ….

Here is a fun card that I created with these dies and a watercolor wash background ….

I have one more product to show you today along with several card samples; the Rustic Harvest Designer Series paper ….

You will notice that these sheets have colorful designs on one side, and black and white on the other. If you look back at my Halloween Scottie Dog you will find some of these patterns on that card too!

My first card uses the black and white for the background, then with my blending brushes, just added some color!

The next card shows how you can bring the color level up a notch (or leave it just the way it is) I used the Stampin’ Blends because the work so well on designer paper too ….

And the last card highlighting the Rustic Harvest Designer paper, shares the before and after using the Stampin’ Blends on the Dahlia’s ….

So many uses for this paper …. take it beyond Harvest time and use the black & white for any occasion … grab some ink or markers and discover the possibilities!

These are just three of the great finds you will discover while shopping the clearance rack … I noticed that my favorite “Glitter Washi Tape” had already sold out! I will be tomorrow with a few more that I just loved using!

Thanks for stopping by, and have a happy Monday!

All Together: Cute Cards & Stamping Tips

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’m going to share with you some cute cards that highlight the All Together Designer Paper that is in the Clearance Rack! I’ll share the Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends markers … I use these markers all the time, but they seem to get overlooked in the catalog. See them on page 136 of our Annual Catalog.

I am really enjoying these Stampin’ Blends with this designer paper … it’s so much fun, and so needed in these times. I feel stampers are conduits to a happier world … sending joy one card at a time!!

This card highlights 3 different patterns from the All Together designer paper. The designer paper was created with a nice and simple design so we don’t feel like we have to go crazy with shading and trying to create a realistic hand! It’s easy and fun to make … and share! I believe that every act of kindness truly does change the world.

Check out the layering on this card …

I created this color pallet of sorts with the 10 Naturals Stampin’ Blend markers …. I will have links below so you can check them out for yourself.

Now … when you get your markers, you can write in the numbers like I did below and then try some color combinations of your own. I did a little experimenting on one of the patterns in the designer paper.

Here’s a sample of how you can use this pattern of raised hands … So simple to create, and to show your support for another. Behind the card you’ll see more of the All Together Designer paper patterns.

Here is another card that highlights two pattern in the paper stack and the Stampin’ Blends … This really is a versatile designer paper pack and your can have a whole lot of fun with it!

Here are two fun techniques that you can use on Black & White Designer paper like the All Together Designer paper that is ON SALE in the Clearance Rack.

A super simple technique to change the look of your designer paper is to simply color in the images … Image, you can that these hearts “Bubble Bath” for It’s a Girl card or use Balmy Blue for an It’s a Boy! Don’t stop there … Real Red for Valentines, or Multi-Colors to show support, or choose any color that supports a loved one fighting for cancer.

For my next technique … OMBRE; you can do this several ways!! You can use your Stampin’ Blends to simply apply the color. Another way is to use a layering of color with the use of your Blending Brushes … this creates a soft look. Speaking of a soft look … how about watercoloring; use your Water Painters and ink or a paint brush. You could also use your Watercolor Pencils and Blender pens. So many ways to create the Ombre look.

The paper patterns shown are from the All Together Designer Series Paper. Don’t forget … Stampin’ Up! has add many new items to the Clearance Rack today!! Have fun and grab those discounts … Your sales will qualify your for the BONUS Days Coupons / Reward as well.

Thank you for spending time with me today, I hope you have enjoyed the cards and stampin’ tips for black & white designer paper!

Have an awesome day and don’t forget to share your smile 🙂

Whimsical Hello Card …

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

I took the weekend off but I’m back to say HELLO in a fun & whimsical way. I am using the Delightfully Eclectic 12 x 12 Designer Series paper. This paper is so much fun with a total of 48 sheets … you’ll get 4 sheets each of 12 double-sided designs. That is 24 “delightfully eclectic” patterns. I’ve used several already and I’m sharing one of them with you today.

My pattern choice today was the fun floral in Fresh Freesia and Basic Black. I matted my paper with the black and chose the Fresh Freesia cardstock as my base. Once layered I added the Black & White 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon which I tied in a cute little bow.

With such a fun and whimsical pattern, I chose the Alphabest stamp set and coordinating Best Label punch. I first stamped the outer design in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and then stamped my greeting in the Fresh Freesia ink.

With the Alphabest being photopolymer stamps, it’s a breeze to align the letters inside your stamped outer designs.

I popped up my greeting using the Mini Dimensionals and attached them in a playful way … I find this a “no stress” way to add my individually punched pieces because I don’t have to make sure it’s perfectly straight.

To finish off the card, I added my favorite “Iridescent Ice” Rhinestones … they go on everything!! I love the way the pick up the colors that are one your card. Perfect for a super simple, fun and whimsical card.

Thank you for joining me today. I hope you have a great week ahead.

Getting Punchy ….

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I want to share some of my favorite punches and the card samples created from them. Let’s get started right away with the Heart Punch Pack …

There are two hearts in this pack … your initial heart and then a scallop punch to mat or create some extra drama! Let’s take a look at another one, and another trio of hearts. I must like this layout … lol.

CLICK HERE TO SEE ORIGINAL POST

One more “Heart” …. Ok two more!! I embossed the background and then punched out the heart. The negative was turned into a Shaker Card and the other was matted with the scallop heart.

Now for one of my “go to” punches for creating quick cards is the Daisy punch. So very versatile for any occasion. Let’s take a look …

You can see another card & full post by clicking Here!

Here are a selection of cards that highlight the Daisy Punch while I used different backgrounds to create some fun cards.

You can always cluster your daisy with other flowers to create a bouquet ….

These are just 2 of the many punches on sale right now, and fun shapes that Stampin’ Up! offers. I love the simplicity of a punch which makes cardmaking so quick and easy … just add paper!

I’m glad you stopped by today and got to check out these cute cards you can create with our punches … again, so many more to choose from.

Have a good day ~

We created six new dies that coordinate with stamp sets in the 2022–2023 Annual Catalog and the July–December 2022 Mini Catalog. These coordinating dies will only be available during this promotion and will not be offered in any catalog.

Our second promotion runs though out September but changes each week. I’m also thrilled to see that WEEKLY DEALS have returned.

If you have been stamping with me for a while, this was something that we all looked forward to … each week in the month of September they’re offering a selection of discounted products. Discounts and product selection will vary from week to week… New products added each week on 1, 8, 15, and 22 September!

Click on this flyer and print it … The flyer includes a QR code so you can scan the code and easily find the deals offered each week.

Here are the WEEKLY DEALS for September 1st …

That is a lot of good news for one post and a lot of savings. Feel free to contact me and let me know if you have any questions concerning these specials, I’m here to help.
