Unfrogettable Stamping!

Sunday Fun Day: "W" fun fold Hues of Happiness birthday card

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! Today's theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog is fun fold cards. I saw a great card called a "W" fold on Sharon Armstrong's blog (see it pinned here) and decided to try one. So fun and easy!

 

  I used the new Happiness Abounds stamp set and coordinating Hues of Happiness DSP from the Annual catalog for today's card along with some stampin' blends for coloring.  These colors just scream summer to me (although kind of tricky to photograph)!  Click on either photo to hop over to my online Stampin' Up! store to place an order. 

 

 

 Here is a closer look at the front of the card. I used a large piece of the DSP for the background, then stamped the sentiments with Gorgeous Grape ink and stamped the flowers and leaves with Memento Jet Black ink so I could color them using my Stampin' Blends (Melon Mambo combo, Daffodil Delight combo and Granny Apple Green combo).  I cut the flowers and layered them on top of the leaves that were stamped directly on the card stock panel.

 

 

  These photos show the inside of the card, making it the "W" fold.  Once again I relied heavily on the gorgeous DSP for 3 of the 4 panels.

 

 

 As you can see, on the left side of the card I used a piece of the DSP featuring the yellows, reds and oranges and stamped the panel with a mango melody flower image to match. The sentiment was inked with Gorgeous Grape ink. For the bottom of that panel, I tried (not so successfully) to ink the sentiment across the bottom. Note to self - stamp this BEFORE gluing the strip for the W onto the card base.

 

 

  On the right side of the card I used a piece of the DSP for one panel, and then from another design in the pack I cut out several flowers and layered them together on the 4th panel. So easy outside of the cutting that I had to do.  I left the bottom of the inside panel blank for any sentiment I want to write inside the card when I send it.  

 

  Want to make one yourself? Here are the dimensions that I used today:

Card Dimensions

Base card: Granny Apple Green CS 11” x 4-1/4″ scored at 5 1/2″

Card front mat: Granny Apple Green CS 3-1/4″ x 2-3/4″

Card front panel: Basic White CS 3″ x 2-1/2″

Basic White CS scraps for flowers

“W” strip: Granny Apple Green CS 11” x 1-1/2″ scored at 2 3/4″, 5 1/2″, 8 1/4″

Inside panels: DSP (2) and Basic White CS (2) 2-1/2″ x 2″

Sunday Fun Day: Sweet as a Peach Mini Scrapbook

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! This week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog is mini scrapbooks. I'll be honest, I was a scrapbooker before I became a stamper, but it has been a long time since I've worked on any scrapbooking projects. I had a lot of fun with this project today and hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it.  Now I just have to print some photos to add to it!  

 

 

  The products I used with today's card are seen above. All three products are on the Last Chance list so if you want them, make sure to place your order ASAP!  Click on photo above to hop over to my Stampin' Up! store to place an order.  If ordering online, please be sure to use Host Code SGCN9HKF.  

 

 

  Here are photos of the pages that I created using the stamp set, DSP and card stock colors from the color palette of the DSP. The covers are old coasters that I had in my stash from a chain restaurant that measured 4" x 4". I covered the front and back with DSP pieces and then used my snips to round the corners. I then covered the inside pieces with balmy blue card stock. The inside pages are six sheets of 7-1/2" x 3-3/4" pieces of basic white card stock folded in half. I glued each half back to back with the folds at the top. It is much easier to embellish all your pages first, then attach the first and last pages to the covers (ask me how I know, ha ha).  Once I had the covers attached I added an additional piece of card stock for the binding.  Anyway, I had fun with this and hope you give it a try!

 

 

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

Sunday Fun Day: Saying goodbye to the Prized Peony and Wild Roses stamp sets

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! For this week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are saying goodbye to some favorite stamp sets. The 2021-2022 Annual catalog is ending in a few weeks, have you checked out the Last Chance Products promotion? Many of the retiring products are on sale, grab them while you still can!

 

 

 

  The two stamp sets I featured today, Prized Peony and Wild Roses, are both on sale!!  In addition, I used several In Colors, the Stitched So Sweetly dies set and Flowers for Every Occasion ribbon combo all of which are retiring.  Grab them before they're gone...  click on photo above to hop over to my Stampin' Up! store to place an order.  If ordering online, please be sure to use Host Code S43YYXBG.  

 

 

  For my first card, I used retiring 2020-2022 In Colors Magenta Madness, Just Jade and Cinnamon Cider stampin' blends to color my flower image. The background is Just Jade card stock that I stamped the Wild Roses stamp set onto using Just Jade ink for a beautiful monochromatic designer paper feel.  I added ribbon from the retiring Flowers for Every Occasion ribbon combo featuring Just Jade in a gingham check. This color combination definitely gives the card a more whimsical feel, perfect for a birthday, thank you or any occasion card.  I left the inside blank so I had more versatility.

 

 

  For this card I went with a more elegant color combination featuring Flirty Flamingo and Mossy Meadow. I added a tiny bow tied using the gold option in the Simply Elegant Trim set.  To make it easier to tie the gold cord, I punched a tiny hole in the diecut and threaded the cord through it to tie. This card would be perfect as a sympathy card, don't you think?

 

  

  Here's one more look at my card set.  Which is your favorite? For even more retiring stamp set card ideas and projects, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what Karla and Rachel created.

Sunday Fun Day: Shaped Cards

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! For this week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing shaped cards. I must admit, this was a struggle for me, but once I embraced it I had a lot of fun creating this Panda card!

 

 

  My inspiration came from Jennifer McGuire, whose cards I found on Pinterest (see that here). I knew I could create something similar with my Stampin' Up! products so challenged myself to come up with a card template for the panda's body and pulled in some punches to help me with the rest. Can you guess which ones I used?

 

 

  Did you guess correctly? I used the Double Oval and Strawberry Builder punches - read on to see how I used them.  Please click on either photo above to hop over to my Stampin' Up! store to place an order.  If ordering online, please be sure to use Host Code S43YYXBG.  

 

  To create my template, I took a piece of scrap paper, cut and folded it like a card with a top fold, then free-hand drew a panda.  I cut it out (first folding it in half to have symmetry), leaving the top of the ears connected at the fold. Once my template was done, I traced it with a pencil onto the back of piece of thick white card stock for my base card.  I cut it out using my paper snips and then embellished it.

 

  For the arms, ears and nose, I used the Strawberry builder punch with basic black card stock (see the pieces above). The nose was cut from the leaf piece (shown with the white gel pen markings). For the eyes, I used the oval from the Double Oval punch. I completed the look with the largest pearls from the Pearls basic jewels.  The scalloped oval punch pieces left over were glued to the legs as shown above, and once dry I cut around the edges on the back side of the card front with my paper snips (no waste!).

 

 

  The large flower (melon mambo card stock), middle flower layer (flirty flamingo card stock) and leaf (granny apple green card stock) were cut using a retired Bigz die (Island Floral). If you have the In The Tropics die set from the Annual Catalog, that would certainly work.  The smallest flower (mango melody card stock) was cut using the the Strawberry Builder punch.  I added an opal gem to the center for a little pizzazz.  I put the flower piece together, then mounted it on the panda's belly with stampin' dimensionals. The arms were also attached with stampin' dimensionals.

 

 

  Here you can see my rough-drawn template and completed card.  I love how this turned out and used the template to make a brown bear birthday card for my brother-in-law. I totally forgot to take a photo of it before popping it in the envelope. Instead of having the bear hold a flower, I used the Double Oval punch to stamp out a Happy Birthday sentiment to link the arms together.

 

  

  Here's one more look at my card. For even more shaped card ideas and projects, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what Karla and Rachel created.

Sunday Fun Day: Faux Stair Step fun fold Ladybug card

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! For this week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing fun/fancy fold projects and I decided to make faux stair step card featuring the Hello Ladybug bundle from the Spring January-June mini catalog.  I had seen one on Pinterest shared on Glenda Calkin's thestampcamp blog (see that pin here) and CASE'd it for my project today.  Check out her video tutorial to see how it's made.

 

 

  If this project looks familiar, it is because I had some of this sheet of card stock shown above that was left over from last week's project (see that gift card holder here) and decided to use it for this week's project.  Colors used to stamp the "designer paper " include daffodil delight, granny apple green, mango melody and poppy parade.

 

 

  Above you'll see the super adorable Hello Ladybug stamp set and punch bundle - the stamp set images were used to create my "designer paper" and the punch was used for the ladybug on the front of my card.  Please click on the photo above to hop over to my Stampin' Up! store to place an order.  If ordering online, please be sure to use Host Code QNTFU7G6. 

 

 

  Here is how you cut the base card and middle section of the faux stair step card. You end up using most of a single sheet of 8-1/2" x 11" piece of card stock, but I feel like it is a lot more sturdy than a traditional stair step card (I made one way back in 2012 that you can see here).

 

  Here is a close-up of the center panel - I added the punched lady bug to the center of the large leaf (strategically cutting my stamped "designer paper" card stock) and added the "hello" sentiment to a strip of basic white card stock and matted it with a strip of mango melody card stock.

 

 

  Here is a view of the side of the card so you can see how it is put together.  The middle section is attached at the bottom to the accordion fold on the front of the card and also at the back of the card.

 

 

  Because of how you add the center folded piece, the card doesn't fully open. In the first photo above you can see the inside from a side angle and the second picture shows the card opened up from the front.

 

 

  Here's one more look at my faux stair step card. For even more fun/fancy fold card ideas and projects, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what Karla and Rachel created.

Sunday Fun Day: Quick and easy last-minute Valentine's Day candy favors

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! For this week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing quick and easy last-minute Valentine's Day candy favor ideas.  Mine started as these cute heart-shaped boxes filled with candy that I picked up at a Dollar store.

 

 

  Please see above for the products I used with today's project. They feature the cute images from the Nuts & Bolts stamp set that I colored with my Stampin' Blends markers (Poppy Parade and Smoky Slate) and cut out using the Label Me Lovely punch. Click on any photo above to hop over to my Stampin' Up! store to place an order.

 

 

  Here is my first little heart - I love this robot, so cute holding the heart. Poppy Parade stampin' blends perfectly matched the color of the plastic heart and the Smoky Slate stampin' blends are a great option for the robot images!

 

 

    And for my second heart, I used this little robot and stamped a heart in the corner (inking only the larger heart from the double-heart image in the set).  The cut panels were attached to the heart boxes with stampin' dimensionals. Doesn't get any faster than that!  For even more last-minute Valentine favor ideas and projects, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog.

Sunday Fun Day: Robot Sweet Talk note card and gift set

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! For this week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are celebrating all things hearts, just in time since Valentine's Day is right around the corner. I decided to make a cute valentine note card and matching little gift box using the Nuts & Bolts stamp set and Sweet Talk DSP from the Spring catalog.

 

 

  Please see above for the products I used for my card and gift set. Click on any photo above to hop over to my Stampin' Up! store to place an order.

 

 

  Today's entire project was inspired by a recent trip to the Dollar store... I saw this cute little paper box and small bag of chocolates. On a side note, when did the prices go up? These were still a bargain, though - for just $2.50 I had the beginning of a super cute Valentine's Day gift.  I decided to cover the box with the Sweet Talk DSP.

 

 

  I used the box lid on the reverse of the DSP design that I wanted to use as a template, and then simply cut it out with my paper snips. The lid was sunken in a little, so I added some mini dimensionals to prop up the DSP.

 

 

 

    The diameter around the box is exactly 12", so for the bottom I could use a single strip of DSP. However, for the lid I wanted some contrast using real red card stock, so cut two pieces at 6-1/2" inches and overlapped the first piece like so. Here's a tip - if you want to make your card stock wrap around a curved edge easier, use your bone folder to break the fibers much like you would with curling ribbon. 

 

 

     And here is the finished box, so cute right?!? Check out that robot image that I stamped on a piece of white card stock that I cut out using the Layering Circles dies. I added a few hearts as well and then colored everything using highland heather, real red and smoky slate stampin' blends markers.  The mini bag of chocolates fit perfectly inside the box.

 

 

  Here is the matching note card and envelope. I added a mat of real red card stock and just a small strip of the DSP. I love this robot image and the sentiment is great.  I added a few hearts and colored all with my stampin' blends.

 

 

  For the inside of the card I used the third robot image from the set. So cute and the sentiment goes with it perfectly (check out that "flower")!

 

 

    For the outside of the envelope, I stamped the same robot that I used for the gift box. To prevent the stampin' blends from bleeding through to the back of the envelope, I slid a piece of scrap paper in before I started coloring.

 

 

  Here is one more view of my sweet set.  For even more heart-inspired projects, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog.

Sunday Fun Day: Quick & Easy last-minute gift idea

 

  Hello and Happy Sunday! For this week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing Quick & Easy last-minute gift ideas. Mine is SUPER simple and easy to throw together because I always have the supplies on hand. I love buying the large assortment of hot cocoa packets at the big box store and who doesn't have candy canes and chocolates in their pantry at this time of year?  I also LOVE coffee mugs, and it is so fun picking out a few at the after-Christmas clearance sales. These are great to fill with this "snowman soup" (cocoa, candy canes and chocolates) or you could even stuff the mug with warm fuzzy socks, an assortment of teas - really anything - and then add a hand-stamped touch with a fun gift tag.

 

  These are the products I used for my tag, plus a mini hole punch and Evening Evergreen ink.

 

 

  For my gift tag I used the Tidings & Trimmings stamp set because I love the "merry & bright" sentiment and it happens to fit perfectly in the Label Me Lovely punch. I layered the white card stock with another label punched from real red card stock (which was cut in half) then added to the back. I also layered a banner of crushed curry (to match the belt buckle on Santa's belt) and then for a little more pop of color I added a piece of old olive card stock cut out with the Everyday Label punch.  This was tied onto the bag of chocolates with linen thread. I used a medium clear envelope (after cutting off the adhesive flap) and it fit perfectly into my mug.

November 2021 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop: Thankful/Grateful project

 

  Hi there and welcome to the November 2021 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop!  This month we are sharing projects with a Thankful/Grateful theme, which is perfect since Thanksgiving is right around the corner. I made a thank you card and matching candy favor with many of my favorite fall colors.

 

 

  I once again pulled out the Banner Year stamp set, such a great one with tons of images and sentiments perfect for this time of year.  Did you catch my project back in September that featured this set? Check it out here.  In addition, I used the Buffalo Check stamp set (sorry, I didn't realize this had retired!), along with the Double Oval and Everyday Label punches.  The color combo that I used includes Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Pumpkin Pie.  Be sure to click on any of the images above to visit my Stampin' Up! store to purchase.

 

 

  Here is the card - when I was designing it I envisioned a picnic blanket spread on the ground covered in beautiful fall leaves. The trees are so full of gorgeous colors here in Central Virginia right now, I love to see them when I walk my dog in the neighborhood - reds, oranges and yellows. Which is your favorite? 

 

 

 

  Since I didn't want to cover up much of the stamped background, I decided to stamp the sentiment and cut it out along with a mat using the Double Oval punch.  It was still a bit small, so I decided to add a banner of pumpkin pie card stock. I trimmed it to 1-1/2" wide and fed it through the Everyday Label punch from the top so that I could notch the end of the strip. It was still a little boring, so I spritzed the card stock with water and then crumbled it up. I then used my bone folder to flatten it out and now it kind of has a leathery look.  I really like the texture that it adds to the card!

 

 

 

  For the inside of the card, I kept it super simple and just stamped the leaf image down one side using all three colors to look like falling leaves. I love how it turned out!

 

 

  Here is another view of my card, you can really see the texture on the pumpkin pie card stock strip!

 

 

 

  I have a bunch of these little glass jars from the yogurt that I like and I hate to throw them away once I have eaten the yummy yogurt. I peel the labels off and run them through the dishwasher - they are perfect for holding a bone folder, my paper snips and Tombow adhesive (upside down so the glue is always at the tip). I thought it would be fun to fill one with chocolates and decorate it as a little favor. Wouldn't this be a cute little addition for each guest at your Thanksgiving table?!  I was thinking the scalloped ovals look a little like feathers or leaves. I inked up the Happy Thanksgiving sentiment (it is a single line, so inked each word separately to ad to the bumblebee oval), then glued them together and punched a hole in the top so I could tie them to the jar with linen thread. 

 

 

   Here is a close up of the tag - looks cute, right?!  I hope you and your family have a very Happy Thanksgiving!!  Be sure to visit each of the participating bloggers on the hop using the links below for even more inspiration.

 

Thanks for visiting and happy stamping!!

Sunday Fun Day: Happy Halloween!

 

  Hello and Happy Halloween!  For this week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing Halloween projects.  I decided to make a little favor treat bag to take to our neighbors across the street. My dog Bruno will be terrified of the constantly ringing doorbell tonight, so sadly I will not be handing out candy.

 

  I once again used this fun Clever Cats stamp set along with a middle sized rectangle die from the Stitched So Sweetly dies set.  To purchase the items used with today's project - please hop over to my Stampin' Up! store. 

 

 

  I pulled out my Tuxedo Black Memento pad, Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape and Pumpkin Pie ink pads and stamped the smaller images from the stamp set onto white tissue paper to make it more festive. Did you know that you can stamp on tissue paper to personalize it for any occasion? I haven't done this in a while and forgot how messy it can be - be sure to let it dry completely so you don't smudge! 

 

 

 

  Here is a close-up of the stamped panel that I attached to the front of the gift bag with stampin' dimensionals. I think this kitty cat is the cutest!  Remember how I warned you about smudging above? Well, I had some of the gorgeous grape ink on my fingers after inking the tissue paper and smudged my stamped panel when attaching it to the bag. You can see it a little by the cat's tail - I just stamped the sentiment again on a piece of Highland Heather card stock and snipped it to make a banner and hide it. Bet you wouldn't have known if I had not told you, right? Don't ever fret over a smudge, use it as an opportunity to add another layer.  

 

 

   Here is one last look at my little favor bag. I think it turned out super-cute!  Don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog for even more great Halloween ideas and inspiration!!  

 

Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous week!
