Sunday Fun Day: Rustic Harvest Fall birthday cards

Sorry, this post is a little late this week... enjoy!

  Hello and Happy Sunday Monday! This week we are sharing fall-themed cards over on the Sisters in Stamping blog.  I have several friends with October birthdays, so created two different cards featuring the Rustic Harvest DSP from the Holiday catalog.  I love these patterns and check out how totally different these cards are!

 

 

  Don't you just love this DSP? It is in the Holiday catalog and is perfect for your Fall projects. Please click any of the images above to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store (don't forget to use Host Code 9D2TRR97 with your online order at checkout through September 30th).  

 

  Here is the first card - don't see the colored leaves DSP in the product image above? That is because this is a black and white paper and I colored the different leaf images with Stampin' Blends markers: Cherry Cobbler, Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Mossy Meadow and Pumpkin Pie. I added some fun texture with the Gingham embossing folder used with the Crushed Curry card stock and the Natural Woven ribbon in the top corner that I tied in a knot. It doesn't really show in the images, but I also used a Wink of Stella glimmer brush to add some shimmer and shine to the leaves and "colored" in the birthday letters on the punch.  The friend for whom I created this card doesn't like the mess of glitter, so this way she will get some bling without the mess.  I hope she likes it as much as I do!

 

 

 

  For this card I was going for more of a masculine feel. I really let the pumpkins pattern shine as the focal point of the card. 

 

 

  Wondering what ribbon I used on the punch? That is actually a very thin strip of mossy meadow card stock that I used to make a knot. In order to do so, I had to first break the fibers using my bone folder. It adds the perfect touch, don't you think? I also colored in the birthday letters using a cajun crazy stampin' write marker.  For the inside of the card, I added a small strip of the DSP from the front of the card. I really love how this one turned out!

 

 

 

    Here's one more look at my cards.  Which is your favorite? For even more fall card ideas and inspiration, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to check out what Karla and Rachel created this week.

Sunday Fun Day: Perfectly Penciled Wedding Wishes card

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! This week we are showcasing wedding cards over on the Sisters in Stamping blog in honor of Rachel's son's wedding this weekend.  I am not quite there with my kids, but look forward to the day they get married.  Wedding cards are always difficult for me, but thankfully I had some beautiful DSP to help me with this card.

 

 

 

  Don't you just love this DSP? It is ON SALE now during Week 3 of September's Weekly Deals (but only through September 21st). I colored the gorgeous pattern with my Stampin' Blends alcohol markers and what an easy card!  Want to place an online order? Click any of the images above to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store (don't forget to use Host Code 9D2TRR97 with your online order at checkout through September 30th).  

 

  Here is another view of my card. I used Petal Pink for the flowers, Pumpkin Pie for the flower centers and butterflies, and Soft Sea Foam for the foliage. The colors are soft and go well with the Smoky Slate card base.

 

 

 

  I cut a small strip of the DSP and flipped it over (the pattern is also beautiful), and stamped the matching verse to the outside of the card from the Celebrate You stamp set. This is a great set an is so versatile!

 

 

 

    Here's one more look at my card.  For even more wedding card ideas and inspiration, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to check out what Karla and Rachel created this week.  

 

Be sure to check out the Week 3 Deals before they end on 9/21 and a new list of products go on sale.

Sunday Fun Day: Nuts about You congratulations card

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! This week we are showcasing Congratulations cards to help celebrate the achievements of our family and friends over on the Sisters in Stamping blog.  I love sending these cards to people and decided to make one that is perfect for fall, gender-neutral and age-appropriate for anyone.

 

  Don't you just love this DSP? It is from the Host selection Celebrate Everything DSP pack in the Holiday catalog. It pairs perfectly with the Nuts about You stamp set, right?  The sentiments (card front and inside panel) are both from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set and I used the Decorative Circle punch on the front of the card.  Want to place an online order? Click any of the images above to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store (don't forget to use Host Code 9D2TRR97 with your online order at checkout through September 30th).  

 

  Here is another view of my card. I pulled the colors from the DSP - crushed curry for the card base, shaded spruce for the mat and punch, and poppy parade to mat the sentiment banner.

 

 

  How stinkin' cute is this little squirrel? I colored him using gray granite ink and the acorn is stamped with crumb cake and soft suede. I love that this set is 2-step - the solid image stamps, which are photopolymer and therefore clear, make it so quick and easy to stamp and color the images!  The thing that took me the longest on this card was fussy-cutting the squirrel with my paper snips. I popped him up with dimensionals onto the punched piece. To make it super easy, that punch was cut from the mat piece on the card front.

 

 

  I kept the inside of the card super simple with just a matted strip of the DSP and another sentiment from the Hand-Penned Petals set.

 

 

    Here's one more look at my project.  For even more congratulations card ideas and inspiration, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to check out what Karla and Rachel created this week.

More envelope gift card holder ideas featuring the SAB selections Wonderful World bundle and Hippest Hippos

  Hello and thanks for stopping by mid-week!  On Sunday I shared these fun envelope gift card ideas using the Sale-a-Bration selections Wonderful World DSP and Hippest Hippos stamps and coordinating dies. 

 

 

  I made a few more using some of the other gorgeous patterned papers from the Wonderful World bundle plus the Hippest Hippos stamp set and coordinating dies, Sweet Songbirds stamp set and Lasting Label punch.  Be sure to also check out my summer flowers card post and this birthday card post for more projects featuring this gorgeous DSP.   With Sale-a-Bration winding down TOMORROW (August 31st), you'll want to place an order to earn one or more of these items before they're gone!  Be sure to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store to place an order (don't forget to use Host Code 9KTH7QVD with your online order at checkout through August 31st).  If your order is $50+ you also get to choose a free Sale-a-Bration item, too!  If you want to earn this Wonderful World bundle, make sure your product total is at least $100.

 

 

 

  I made one more gift card holder using the Hippest Hippos stamp and dies because it is just too cute!  What do you think of this one?   Instead of using the crinkled seam binding ribbon to tie this one shut, I pulled out my In Color bakers twine. I really like this one!

 

 

 Here is one I made using the Wonderful World DSP and Sweet Songbirds stamp set and coordinating punch.  I wanted to show the inside so you could see how cute the punched out little birdie is along with the rest of the sentiment from the front cover. 

 

 

 

  Here are two more that include sentiments from the Sweet Songbirds stamp set. For the top card, I used my Dark Orchid Oasis stampin' blend marker to color basic rhinestone jewels to embellish the oval punch. Did you know that stampin' blends are great for coloring rhinestones, pearls and even ribbon?

 

 

 

  This graphic shows how I took a piece cut out using the Lasting Label punch and cut it to make two new mats. Make sure you are getting the most from your tools by thinking outside the box and cutting them.

 

 

    Here's one more look at all of my envelope gift card holders.  Which one is your favorite? Don't forget, if you love the Wonderful World bundle or the Hippest Hippos stamp set and coordinating dies, you only have until TOMORROW (August 31st) to earn them for FREE with a qualifying order. Want all 3? Make sure to place a $200 order... not only will you earn these products for free, but you'll also earn $20 in free host rewards.

Sunday Fun Day: Wonderful World Hippest Hippo envelope gift card holder

  Hello and Happy Sunday! We are featuring alternate uses for envelopes today for our projects over on the Sisters in Stamping blog .  With the end of the current Sale-a-Bration promotion coming this week (August 31st!!), I wanted to once again feature the Wonderful World DSP (did you see my summer flowers card post or catch this birthday card post earlier?).   In addition to this DSP, I also used the Hippest Hippos stamp set and coordinating dies which are also SAB selections (each separately free with a qualifying $50 order).  I also used two new punches - the Lasting Label punch from the Annual catalog and the Handmade Tag punch from the Holiday catalog. Want to place an order? Be sure to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store to place an order (don't forget to use Host Code 9KTH7QVD with your online order at checkout through August 31st).  If your order is $50+ you also get to choose a free Sale-a-Bration item, too!  If you want to earn this Wonderful World bundle, make sure your product total is at least $100.

 

 

 

 Here is a closer look at the first card. Isn't this hippo the CUTEST?!?   I colored her using Gray Granite (light and dark), Dark Melon Mambo and Light Old Olive stampin' blends markers.  To create the mat for the Lasting Label punch, I cut the ends from a melon mambo piece and glued offset to the basic white one.   

 

 

 

 

  Here is my second card. I am not sure which one I like better. For this hippo, I colored it the opposite way from the first card with the gray granite stampin' blends and added the little flower with the dark Orchid Oasis stampin' blend marker. 

 

 

 

  I am sure you are wondering "where is the envelope?"  Well, this card is sized at 4-1/2" x 3-1/8" and the inside is an envelope folded in half to form a pocket to hold a gift card holder.  Here is the inside of the card. I added a card stock mat and panel to the right side and left the opening on the left to hold a gift card and additional room to write.  The card is held closed by this beautiful crinkled seam binding ribbon.  Keep reading for more photos and how-to instructions. 

 

Materials and dimensions needed for gift card holder:

• Medium envelope
• Card base 6-1/4" x 4-1/2", score on long side at 3-1/8" 
• Card front mat 4-1/4" x 2-7/8" (use the Handmade Tag punch to cut out a piece from the center before adhering to DSP)
• DSP panel 4-1/8" x 2-3/4"
  
• Inside mat 4" x 2-1/2" (use the Lasting Label punch to cut out a piece before adhering the inside panel) 
• Inside panel 3-3/4" x 2-1/4"
• Skinny scrap of DSP to embellish the inside panel
• Ribbon 20" piece

 

Steps:

1. Take a medium envelope and fold the flap INSIDE the envelope.
2. Fold the envelope so that the "pocket" is on the inside.  Use a bone folder to ensure a crisp fold
3. Fold card base in half and line up folded envelope inside. Glue one side, then the other.
4. Wrap ribbon around card so that the tails face to the right. Tape down in the center of both the front and back of card.
5. Adhere DSP & mat to the front over the ribbon to secure.
6. Add a punch to secure the ribbon on the back.
7. Embellish as desired.

 

 

    Here's one more look at my envelope gift card holders.  For even more envelope ideas and inspiration, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to check out what Karla and Rachel created this week.  Be sure to check back this week - I actually cut enough card stock to make 4 more gift card holders using other patterns of the Wonderful World DSP and will be sharing those in the days leading up to the end of Sale-a-Bration.

Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous week!

Sunday Fun Day: Wonderful World of Flowers card

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! We have a theme of summer flowers for our projects over on the Sisters in Stamping blog today.  With the end of the current Sale-a-Bration promotion coming soon (August 31st), I wanted to feature the Wonderful World bundle one more time (did you catch this birthday card post earlier?).   In addition to this bundle, I also used the new Handmade Tag punch from the Holiday catalog and  Celebrating You stamp set. Want to place an order? Be sure to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store to place an order (don't forget to use Host Code 9KTH7QVD with your online order at checkout through September 30th).  If your order is $50+ you also get to choose a free Sale-a-Bration item, too!  If you want to earn this Wonderful World bundle, make sure your product total is at least $100.

 

 

  Here is top view of my card. It is a very clean and simple layout, my favorite!

 

 

  This view shows a little better how I layered the two punches cut using the Handmade Tag punch. I pulled the colors used for this card (melon mambo, pear pizzazz and polished pink) from the DSP piece.

 

 

    Here's one more look at my card.  For even more Christmas card ideas and inspiration, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to check out what Karla and Rachel created this week.

Sunday Fun Day: Color Combo Sweet Songbirds CASE'd card

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! We are featuring a bright and cheerful color combination that Karla came up with for our Sunday Fun Day projects over on the Sisters in Stamping blog today. I decided to use the super cute Sweet Songbirds stamp set for my card.

 

 

  The color combination includes several In Colors: Pale Papaya and Polished Pink from the 2021-2023 collection plus the new Tahitian Tide from the 2022-2024 collection. I saw the cute balmy blue card in the Annual catalog (page 31) and decided to CASE it. I didn't have the same die that was used to cut out the circles, so improvised and use several circle dies from the Layering Circles die collection. I think I got pretty close, don't you? If  you would like to purchase any of these products, be sure to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store to place an order (don't forget to use Host Code 9KTH7QVD with your online order at checkout through August 30th).  If your order is $50+ you also get to choose a free Sale-a-Bration item, too!

 

 

  This view shows a little better how bright this Tahitian Tide card stock is - it's a little darker than the Tempting Turquoise that was retired a few years ago.

 

 

 Here is a close-up look at the punched birdie - so cute! You can see in the upper corner that I crinkled and sponged on crumb cake ink for my little sign.

 

 

    Here's one more look at my card.  For even more color combo card ideas and inspiration, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to check out what Karla and Rachel created this week.

Sunday Fun Day: Penguin Place Snowflake Christmas card

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! We are showcasing accessories in our Sunday Fun Day projects over on the Sisters in Stamping blog today and I decided to use one of the Wonderful Snowflakes for my fun penguin Christmas card. 

 

 

  The Wonderful Snowflakes are a product that was offered in last year's holiday catalog and thankfully carried over. They are iridescent on one side and matte on the other, so give you a lot of possibilities.  I also used the super-cute Penguin Place stamp set and coordinating Penguin Builder punch for my card.  If  you would like to purchase any of these products, be sure to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store to place an order (don't forget to use Host Code ZW9YEQMB with your online order at checkout through August 30th).  If your order is $50+ you also get to choose a free Sale-a-Bration item, too!

 

 

  This view is a little better - I don't know why, but the background is basic white but didn't photograph that way. 

 

 

 

  I stamped the sentiment on a strip of card stock and mounted it across the center of the snowflake with a stampin' dimensional. For the background piece, I stamped the tiny snowflakes all over with pool party ink and stamped the reindeer antlers right onto the card stock since I didn't want to cut them out. The penguin was stamped on a scrap of white and cut out using my Penguin builder punch. Easy-peasy!

 

 

    Here's one more look at my card.  For even more accessories ideas and inspiration, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to check out what Karla and Rachel created this week.

Sunday Fun Day: Christmas in July Scottie Dog card

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! We are celebrating Christmas in July over on the Sisters in Stamping blog today and sharing Christmas card ideas. It is never too early to get started on your Christmas cards, is it?  I decided to feature the Christmas Scottie bundle that I recently purchased from the Holiday catalog.  The stamp set and coordinating punch are so darn cute!

 

 

  In addition to the Christmas Scottie bundle, I also used the Layering Circles dies and the Artistic Mix decorative masks that are in the Annual catalog. If  you would like to purchase any of these products, be sure to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store to place an order (don't forget to use Host Code ZW9YEQMB with your online order at checkout through August 30th).  If your order is $50+ you also get to choose a free Sale-a-Bration item, too!

 

 

  This view shows how I punched out the dog and bow and popped them up on the layered circle die cuts. The plaid pattern on the inner circle was achieved using a stamping' blend brush with real red ink and the respective mask from the Artistic Mix decorative mask set.

 

 

 

 Here is a look at the inside of the card. I stamped the ribbon image along the top, a sentiment in the center and a peeking little pup in the lower left corner. 

 

 

    Here's one more look at my card.  For even more Christmas card ideas and inspiration, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to check out what Karla and Rachel created this week.
