Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Happy Wednesday! Today I will be sharing the replay of my Facebook LIVE presentation from last night: Punchin’ with Heart: Creating Cute Valentine Treat Boxes I’m going to show you how quick & easy it is to make these cute boxes along with some fun tips for your Heart Punches. Did I mention cards too!!

Grab a beverage, sit back, relax and join me for my replay and the things that happen when your LIVE!

Hope you enjoyed and caught those tips! Here are the dimensions for the boxes. Start with a 12″ x 12″ – cut in half so you have a 12″ x 6″ sheet to start with.

  • Score at 2″ – 5″ – 7″ and 10″ at 11″ cut off end.
  • Turn paper 90 degrees and score at 1″
  • Turn 180 degrees and score at 1″

Burnish all score lines and cut and trim as shown in the video

Here is the card I created in the video too …

Simply Sunday: Amazing Silhouettes Stamp Set

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS, Sale-a-bration by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’d like to share a simple card created with the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set from our Annual Stampin’ Up! Catalog. Get back to nature with the nature-inspired images in the Amazing Silhouettes Stamp Set. Create beautiful silhouettes in one simple step. Use one color to make a bold impression or multiple colors for an ombre look.

My card base is Mossy Meadow and the beautiful designer paper is Sale-a-brations very own Dainty Flowers … the paper you can get for FREE with a $50 purchase. Because the Dainty Flowers paper has shades of Mossy Meadow and Old Olive, I used the Old Olive ink for my stamped silhouette and my greeting…. both on Basic White cardstock.

I wrapped bakers twine around my stamped image to create some texture and add a touch of nature to the card. This entire piece was popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The greeting is a bit more than what I usually use for a Simply Sunday card but I couldn’t resist. Meet the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set, which includes various sentiments in different stylistic fonts designed to be used for all occasions. With this set, say thank you and congratulations, wish happy birthday and good luck, and show people you care. Grab some ink, pair with the images of your choice, and create your personalized handmade cards.

Love this sentiment set, and it gets better because it has coordinating dies!! That’s right … you can stamp your sentiments directly or die cut them and add them anywhere on your card! I also cut out a mat using the greeting die for some additional layering and to enhance the sentiment.

A great sentiment stamp set (with dies) is a must have for any stamp room, and a good investment as you can use it with any other stamp set, or just to add it to some of our stunning designer paper that doesn’t need anything else!

A simple card today that could be used for a man or a women, perfect isn’t it? I thank you for taking time out of your Sunday for the visit.

Have a great day ~
