Simply Sunday: Love You Lots

Posted in 2020 Jan-Jun Mini Catalog, 2020 SALE-A-BRATION CATALOG by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’m going to share one of the cards that we made in our January Stamp Club using the Heartfelt Bundle.  I will tell you it’s not the best photo (I took it sitting on my couch) but I love the card … it is cased from fellow demonstrator Mary Fish.

The Heartfelt Bundle includes the Heartfelt Stamp Set and the Heart Punch Pack. Use the hearts and arrows in the Heartfelt Stamp Set to create treat tags, boxes, and cards for Valentine’s Day. The greetings are designed to convey love and friendship.

Use the Heart Punch Pack to create a paper heart and a scallop paper heart. Use punched images separately or layer for beautiful coordination. I wanted to show that the beautiful designer paper was created to be “punched” out if you choose. I teamed it up with another pattern from the designer paper.

We punched out the “designer” heart and backed it with a Flirty Flamingo heart punched from the scallop Heart punch included in the bundle.

The playful heart patterns in the From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper have red and pink foil accents on some designs. Some images from the paper can be cut out using the Heart Punch Pack. This paper is excellent for valentines, cards, and scrapbook pages.

You’ll get 12 sheets of patterned paper: 2 each of 6 double-sided designs.  It is Acid free and Lignin free! The designer paper colors include: Flirty Flamingo, Real Red, Whisper White … we found making our cards that if you stamp off the Flirty Flamingo, you will get that pretty pink that coordinates with the paper!

Oh I can’t wait to get back into my studio and start stamping!! Do you know how hard it is to have off work and not be able to get in your stamp room … I’m going crazy! lol

Thank you so very much for stopping in today. I love using punches, it makes card making go so quickly.

Have a beautiful day ~

I’ll Bee Yours …

Posted in Paper Pumpkin, Sale-a-bration by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Well … I did it this time!  On Tuesday night I had a meeting at work and we decided to walk to the meeting place and back, just about the time I got back to my car, my knee gave out. Woooh … haven’t felt that much pain since I herniated the disc in my back!

I actually went to the doctor and he put me on bed rest (which means I can’t get into my stamping room!!) and steroids. He believes it’s arthritis and that I had a flair up.  So … please be patient with me while I work through this. I’m going to do my best to keep you informed through my posts.

Meanwhile, Paper Pumpkin’s first kit of 2020 is all about L-O-V-E. Whether you want handmade favors for Valentine’s Day, a bridal shower, or a remarkably romantic wedding, this kit has your number: 20 treat bags, 10 mini cards and envelopes, and embellishments.

I love those little bee’s and can’t wait to get my kit in the mail … Maybe it will be here tomorrow, my kids will bring it in and I can play!!

How “Suite” are Peaceful Poppies …

Posted in 2020 Jan-Jun Mini Catalog by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

For the past two days, I have been sharing cards created using the Peaceful Poppies and today we’re going to step it up a bit and show you even more of this amazing product suite.  Let me start by sharing a short video … Grab a cup of coffee and join me as we discover the Peaceful Poppies suite …..

You can take your paper crafting to the next level with the Peaceful Poppies Suite by Stampin’ Up!  The Peaceful Poppies Suite has a lot to offer …  It comes with two stamp and die bundles, designer series paper, multiple embellishments, and beautiful poppy elements. Each piece is designed for coordination and beauty to give you an amazing crafting experience.

Can’t wait to show you what I have created ….

This little beauty highlights the stamps and dies of the product suite but there is so much more.  The Peaceful Poppies Suite Bundle includes two stamp set and die bundles for even more fun! The outline poppy images accented by watercolor effects allow you to choose from an array of inspiring coordinating colors to design your projects.

Whether you’re sending a birthday card, your deepest sympathy, or celebrating a friendship, your handmade creations are sure to shine as bright as a field of poppies. And here is a close up of a field of poppies, the border of my card …

There is also a close up of my greeting which was punched with the Timeless label punch. Once it’s cut, you can slide it into the punch and create a totally different look.

The fun little die cut design is a flutter of flowers that I just used to create interest to draw the eye to the circle of poppies.

This is such a fun product suite to play “create” with! And the sentiments are so sweet …. “Life is better with a friend like you”.

Thank you for checking back in today, it is appreciated.

Have a wonderful day ~

Simply Sunday: Peaceful Poppies

Posted in 2019-20 Annual Catalog, 2020 Jan-Jun Mini Catalog by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Hope you are enjoying your weekend and you have set aside some “peaceful” time for yourself. Yesterday I shared a card using the Peaceful Poppies bundle.  Today, I will be sharing a few cards that will show how easy it is to create with our Peaceful Poppies Designer Series paper.

First, let me share a quick video revealing all the beautiful paper designs …

Stunning, don’t you agree!?  The patterns are so pretty it was hard to pick just 2 for today’s cards. Let me start with the most obvious … the tall water colored poppies.  This one seems to be everyone’s favorite and it’s easy to see why …..

The color combination that I used is one of my favorite; Old Olive and Blackberry Bliss.  These two colors compliment each other so well and they really make the designer paper shine in all it’s glory. A simple  greeting is all you need, and I used the Peaceful Moments Stamp set from the Peaceful Poppies suite and punched with the Timeless Label Punch.

The next pattern is one of my favorites … the field of poppies. Poppies were always a favorite flower of mine, even as a child … my mom had them in the garden, the color is so bold and beautiful.

The poppy also commemorates the sacrifice of so many men and women who have given their lives fighting for their country.  Fitting that I used “sympathy” on this card, but it would be just as pretty as a birthday card.

The Pretty Label punch was used to punch out the sentiment, then I popped on a couple Peaceful Poppies Sequins to anchor the greeting.

Simple, simple cards … all you need is some beautiful designer paper and a couple of punches, that’s all it takes to create these pretty cards.

 

Thank you so very much for taking time out of your Sunday to join me and explore the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series paper.

I hope you continue to have an amazing day …  I will see you tomorrow with a card created using the Peaceful Poppies product suite.

Guest Stamper: Brenda M … Painted Poppies

Posted in 2020 Jan-Jun Mini Catalog by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

The weekend has begun and I am in my craft room preparing some classes, cards for club and planning my upcoming retreat. Today I have a card to share with you that was made for our Stars team meeting swap by Brenda Morateck … one of my team members.

Brenda used the NEW Painted Poppies bundle. The Painted Poppies Stamp Set is inspired by a field of poppies and features beautiful line-art images you can fill in with your choice of coloring techniques.

Brenda did a color on color technique by stamping the poppy image in Poppy Parade ink onto Poppy Parade cardstock… then brought some color by stamping a background of Poppy Parade and Crushed Curry and then stamping the field of poppies across the top of it.

So pretty in it’s simplicity … So much more can be done when you add the coordinating dies. Create labels, tags, gorgeous poppies and leaves, a swirly frame, and more for handmade cards, tags, and other fun paper crafts using the Painted Labels Dies.

Thank you so very much for checking in with me today …

I hope you have a wonderful day

What was your favorite? I know … there are too many to name but I will share one of my fav’s. Oh you knew it would be one of the Halloween sets.  Actually .. it’s an entire suite! MONSTER BASH … I just love it!! There are so many fun projects and cards you can make with this one, and here are a few …

Let’s start with the fun little Coffin Boxes …

Coffin Treat Box 150451

My grandkids got a thrill out of these little treat boxes. What a cute way to stash a treat!

Fully open …

We even used the Monster Bash Designer paper with the Mini Curvy Keepsake boxes to create more little treat giving projects! Fun little gifts to give the kiddo’s for place on your co-workers desk…

Mini Curvy Keepsakes Box Dies 150644

I must say that I love the glitz and beautiful holiday bundles they had this year, so many to choose from. One of my favorite stamp sets that is leaving for good is one that was on my “Must Have” list. Here are a few that I created with the GOD’S PEACE Stamp set …

Thanks for taking the time to check out my favorites today. Please let me know if I can help you pick up your favorites before they are gone for good.

Have a great day, I’ll see you tomorrow with a great card I created with another of my fav’s… this one from the NEW Jan-June 2020 Holiday Catalog.

Guest Stamper: Debi K. Sneak Peek!!

Posted in 2019-20 Annual Catalog, 2020 Jan-Jun Mini Catalog by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

And a Happy New Year to you and your family!! I hope your 2020 is amazing beyond expectations… healthy and happy.

Today I have a cute card to share that was made by one of my Star’s team members, Debi Krebsbach for our Star’s Christmas Party swap.  I was so excited to see all the swaps, and I will share those with you as well … this one however, I do not have the stamp set (yet) and I love it!!  It’s the new “Music From the Heart” stamp set found on page 57 of your 2020 Jan-June Mini Catalog.

Debi spritzed her background with alcohol and a few drops of Balmy Blue ink refill in the Stampin’ Spritzer.  Once she stamped her staff on her spritzed cardstock … she “tore” the cardstock to the desired shape. I love it … tearing is an old technique you don’t always see anymore, because we are pretty much caught up in all the fun “die cutting”.

She then stamped her “Clef Note” … whew, I remember that from grade school!! And fussy cut it out.

Love this stamp set and I thank Debi for sharing it with all of us.

Thank you for joining me this New Years Day!

See you tomorrow ~

New Mini Catalog Sneak Peek: So Sentimental Bundle

Posted in 2020 SALE-A-BRATION CATALOG, January - June 2020 Mini Catalog by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Oh my gosh … this is the last time I’ll be posting this year! We have come to the end … but not to worry, I have plenty to share with you in 2020, including some great classes, events, retreats, more cards & projects and some amazing specials!!

Today I’m sharing a card I’ve created with a leftover piece from the Kerchief Card Kit I showed you yesterday.  I just flipped over one of their pre-stamped greetings, which made it the prefect time to introduce  you to the So Sentimental Bundle that will be available January 3rd, 2020 in the Jan-June Mini Catalog (I’ll call it our Spring Mini or just the Mini Catalog).

I have an obsession with “Sentiment” stamp sets … you can never have to many right!? And this is a good one, and to make it even better, Stampin’ Up! paired it with the Stitched so Sweetly Dies. These dies pair nicely with the stamp set but can be used on any card or project your working on … this is what I call “the best value bundle” … both stamps and dies can be used on anything for everything!

I thought you would also love a peek at another Sale-a-bration FREE Item!!  This beautiful designer series paper “Lily Impressions” has impressionistic images with rich colors that create an elegant background … PERFECT for my “sentimental” stamp set!!

I used Grapefruit Grove cardstock and ribbon to highlight the touch of Grapefruit Grove in the designer paper.  I created this combination because if you purchase the “So Sentimental” Bundle and the Grapefruit Grove ribbon … you will get the beautiful “Lily Impressions” Designer Series Paper for FREE.  You will also receive a Virtual Rewards Point too!  I will be sharing more with you from this amazing trio in the future.

Thanks for hanging out with me on the last day of the year, it’s been a pleasure.  I’ll be back tomorrow with another “peek” into the catalog.

Happy New Year!!

Items shown in today’s blog post will be available for purchase January 3rd, 2020 …
