Two for Tuesday Cards & Stamp Sale!

Posted in Christmas, Fall / Autumn, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

We’re going to have some fun today with Two cards for Tuesday and a fun new Stampin’ Up! promotion. Let’s begin with the great news that was just announced … A STAMP SALE!

If you’ve had your eye on stamps from the 2023–2024 Annual Catalog, then we have some exciting news! On 19 July, these stamps will be 15% off for 24 hours (this offer does exclude host stamp sets). You heard us right, for one day only you can snag your favorite stamp sets for a stellar price!

Amazing right … all the stamp sets in the Annual catalog (the big one) are on sale for one day only. PLUS … While you are shopping, don’t forget the Clearance Rack. It was just updated recently, and that brings me to my 2 cards for this Tuesday!!

Both cards were created with the All Together 6 x 6 Designer Series paper …

I wanted to show how fun and versatile that this black & white paper can be. You can see more cards samples HERE from a previous post featuring the All Together Paper.

Tomorrow when you begin your sales shopping; you can use this link: https://www.stampinup.com?hostcode=PJ4UWCQB If you are spending more than $150 – Do Not use this link because you will qualify for Free Host Benefits & more!!

Both of today’s cards were “jazzed” up with my Stampin’ Blends! My first card is a fun Autumn card and I used the Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends to add a strip of color between the stripes on the designer paper ….

I used several items from the Stargazing Suite; the Designer paper and the dies! The fun pumpkin was created with both of those items … all I did was sponge the edges of the circles to create an illusion of depth. The greeting was also cut from the same designer paper pattern than I cut the circles. The “celebrate” comes from the “Wanted to Say” dies.

Next up is a Christmas Card ….

This plain black & white background was transformed by my Cherry Cobbler and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends … just drag your marked across the designer paper / I didn’t even use a ruler, it’s all free hand and easy but creates a fun colorful background. It is adorned with the trees and snow from the One Horse Open Sleigh Bundle.

One more thing while you create your shopping list …. Bonus Buys!! For each $50 you spend, you’ll receive a $5 coupon to shop with in August. So feel free to bundle your discounted stamp sets, with more savings from the Clearance Rack and pick up your Bonus Coupon too!

Those will be emailed to you by Stampin’ Up! so make sure you have an email address and you save your codes. Message me if you have any questions or if you would like help placing your order tomorrow.

Again, here is that link to shop: https://www.stampinup.com?hostcode=PJ4UWCQB

One more thing … I invite you to join me LIVE tonight on my Facebook page for another Free Class / Demonstration.

Thank you for joining me today and I hope I see you tonight.

All Together: Cute Cards & Stamping Tips

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS, ON SALE! by

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 🙂

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I have two cards that highlight the new Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends markers … Available May 1st. My Facebook followers knew I would showcase this sheet of designer paper because I am always asking them for “a show of hands” … lol

A simple card created by our Stampin’ Up! designers ….

I’m liking the new colors and grabbing all my stamp sets that I can use them on!! I was even cruising through the catalog again, but I’ve got some great ideas I will be sharing with you soon.

If you watched the video I shared yesterday, this card features two different designs from the All Together Designer Paper … and they even colored it like a rainbow! It looks great against the black background with the little white hearts.

I think the “pinky swear” stamp … at least that’s what it reminds me of, would make a perfect kids card as well. I’ll have to work on that one!

Here is the “All Together Collection” which includes the bundle, the set of 10 Stampin’ Blends and the Designer paper ….

I also have the Stampin’ Blends and the Bundle separate if you prefer ….

If you missed the download yesterday, I will leave it here ….

We’re in this Together …

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’m going to share with you two cute cards and a short video that highlights the All Together Collection by Stampin’ Up! I’ll share the new Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends markers … It’s a fun sneak peek as these will not be released until May 1st … luckily that is only a couple days away!

Let me begin with the video which is a replay of my Facebook LIVE mini-class.

I am really enjoying these new markers, and the stamp set and designer paper are 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!!

Now … when you get your markers, you can write in the numbers like I did above and then try some color combinations of your own. I did a little experimenting here …

You know I’m going to have to come up with a card using those raised hands … I’m always asking for a “show of hands” for this or that … lol

Here is my card where I highlight the stamp set and dies along with the markers. … This really is a versatile stamp set and your can have a whole lot of fun with it!

This card was fun to make … and always remember that you can pick designer paper or greetings from anything you have in your stash. I’m sure you can come up with some really cool stuff. And like I said, those markers are perfect for hair and/or fur!! lol

Thank you for spending time here today, and to those of you who hung out with me last night for the LIVE broadcast.
