Unfrogettable Stamping!

Fabulous Friday: Monochromatic birthday card

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring monochromatic cards.  I know technically this is considered grayscale but I really love how it turned out and I wanted to use my new ribbon.  So there you go...

 

  I kept things super simple with just a simply stamped background panel featuring the Burlap stamp set which adds nice texture.  I added a piece of the new Black/Silver striped metallic ribbon from the Classic Garage product suite in the Occasions catalog.  The focal image is from the Birthday Wishes for You stamp set.  I love that you can color in the letters!

 

  I was going for an ombre effect and love that you can blend the Stampin' Blends markers so easily.  I only used the Smoky Slate combo, starting with the dark and working down with the light and blending in between.  I also tried to soften the light marker using the Color Lifter - not sure I pulled it off or not.  It does look a little smoky, doesn't it?!

 

  I kept it super simple on the inside of the card, adding the other sentiment from the Birthday Wishes for You stamp set.  This leaves plenty of room to write if you want.

 

 

  Here is one last view of my monochromatic card.  I am really happy with how this turned out - and I think it is a great masculine card with lots of texture both from the ribbon (that isn't too girlie) and the Burlap stamp.  For even more fabulous  monochromatic card ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

February 2019 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop: Celebrating 5 Years of Hopping!!

  Hi there and welcome to the February 2019 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop!  This month we are celebrating 5 years of hopping!  How cool is that?!  I was lucky enough to be invited to join this wonderful group of stampers 1-1/2 years ago and have loved the challenges and inspiration I have received ever since!  This month is an "Anything Goes" theme and I was torn about what to create.  There are so many wonderful Stampin' Up! products and techniques out there and I finally settled on this U-Fold card featuring the fun How Sweet It Is DSP from the Occasions catalog.

 

  Isn't this a fun card? I'll be honest, I was looking for some inspiration so just searched for "3D cards" on Pinterest hoping to find a new fun fold card to try and saw a few that I liked. This snowman card has a tutorial but the card was too big and this wine bottle card went to a link that wasn't in English so didn't help.  I finally just took out some scrap paper and played around until I figured it out.  If you'd like to receive a link to a tutorial, I will send it to my subscribers over the weekend (if you aren't a subscriber, please add your email address at the top of my blog). 

 

  Since this is a 3D card it was difficult to capture without some shadows.  I hope you can see how it looks from the different angles I used to photograph it.

 

  This card came together relatively easily once I got the dimensions figured out because it is mostly DSP - even the cupcake was cut out from a sheet in the pack. I did stamp the sentiment from the Hello Cupcake stamp set using Gorgeous Grape ink.  Did you know that if you place a $50+ product order from me you get this set for FREE during Sale-a-Bration?!  How great is that??  I did use my Big Shot and the Layering Squares framelits to cut out both the window on the card front and the scalloped square that the cupcake is attached to on the inside of my card.  The only other embellishment is the cute little bow made from the mint macaron twine found in the Nature's Twine pack in the annual catalog.  

  Just think, if you were to purchase the Layering Squares framelits ($35), How Sweet It Is DSP ($11) and Nature's Twine ($9) you could earn the stamp set for FREE!, but only through March 31st while the Sale-a-Bration promotion is in effect.  Contact me to place an order or use the current Host Code online and get the Sweet Pins & Tags ($5.00) as a thank you from me (see below in the Promotions section for more details).

 

  Here's a photo of how the card folds to fit in a standard A2 envelope.  Pretty nifty I think!

 

 Here is one more view of my card - I really love how this turned out and think it might end up being a project for my Card Club later this month.  Be sure to check back tomorrow to see my Fabulous Friday project for the Sisters in Stamping blog and don't forget to follow the hop to see what the other designers created for the 5 year anniversary celebration.

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!!

Fabulous Friday: Sweet Valentine's Day treats

 

  Hello and Happy Friday (yikes, it is Saturday - I forgot to publish my post yesterday)!  This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring sweet Valentine's Day treats.  I went the totally quick and easy route and altered this cute little coffee cup.  You may recall these that I have shared these in the past:  Earring Holder, Christmas K-Cup & chocolate treat holder and these fun K-Cup favors.

 

  I kept things super simple with just a piece of Lovely Lipstick DSP from the 2018-2020 In Color 6" x 6" DSP stack, a cute little heart cut out using the Big Shot and the Wood Crate framelits and a sentiment from the Bella & Friends stamp set.  Here is a close-up view of the embellishment - cute, right?

 

  I love how quickly and easily this comes together!  I have a template that I created for the cup and use that to cut out the DSP - it is adhered with tear & tape adhesive.  This little 4 oz cup holds lots of chocolate kisses!  And do you know how I cut out the sentiment? First cut out using the Classic Label punch. Then stick that to the sticky part of a 3x3 post it note.  Slide it back into the punch so you can see where you are cutting and slide it over to cut it smaller - the post it note allows you to maneuver the card stock around to you have the correct placement.  Easy-peasey!

 

  Here is one last view of my favor.  I really love how cute it is!  For even more fabulous  Valentine's Day treat ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

Fabulous Friday: Botanical Butterfly Glitter Window card

 

  Hello and Happy Friday!  This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring the Glitter Window technique on our cards for Fabulous Friday.  My card features several products from the new Occasions catalog as well as the Botanical Butterfly DSP that you can earn for FREE with a qualifying $50 product purchase during Sale-a-Bration.

 

  If you aren't familiar with this technique, you can check out this tutorial on the SplitcoastStampers website here.  Rather than stamp, I cut out a beautiful butterfly from the Botanical Butterfly DSP to put behind my glitter window.  The butterfly I chose is colored with a combination of grapefruit grove and highland heather, so that determined the color scheme of my card.  I love the large gingham check grapefruit grove DSP piece from the Gingham Gala stack so used that along with a strip of highland heather card stock.

 

  Here is a close-up view of the texture that I added to the highland heather card stock strip using the new Lace dynamic texture folder from the Occasions catalog. Isn't it beautiful?!

 

  The ""window" frame for the butterfly was cut out using the new Rectangle Stitched framelits in the Occasions catalog.  The sentiment is from the Butterfly Gala stamp set and the ovals were cut using the Layering Ovals framelits.  My Big Shot did triple duty for this card!!

 

  Here is another view of my card.  I really love how glittery this card is.  For even more fabulous glitter window card ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.
