These first cards are done in shades of yellow – I love the classic black & yellow combo

And this one uses the Petal Pair Textured Embossing Folder (145656)

And here are some more cards

It’s A Good Day

Posted on April 27, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

It’s spring! And that always makes it a good day – I love all the shades of green as the earth comes to life. So today’s card is made with a stamp set called A Good Day (145870/145873), how can that not make you smile?

And this card uses the We Must Celebrate Stamp Set (145895/145898) which is quickly becoming one of my spring favorites!

And how about this card using the Beautiful Day stamp set (145912/145915) and our Brusho Crystal Colors (144101) for a taste of spring?

Love the Prussian Blue teamed up with our Pacific Point Card stock.

And last but not least – Let the Good Times Roll (145687) lol!

This card is a lot of fun – but you can make it pop by using the coordinating Thrill Ride Framelits Dies (145650) if you prefer

Brusho Masking Technique Video Tutorial

Posted on April 26, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

The Brusho Color Crystals are so much fun to play with I don’t want to stop! If you haven’t tried them yet, you won’t be disappointed with the variety of uses with your projects.

Here is a card we made during our April Team meeting that focused on different Brusho Techniques.

This card uses a simple masking technique that creates a wonderful look and was soooo easy to do with a bit of painter’s tape!

Want to make some too? Here is a tutorial for the card so you can play and create too.

Blue Mountain Stampers’ OnStage Stream Event

I love to share and so as a team we always gather together to share with those team members who weren’t able to attend the Stampin’ Up! event itself. We gather, have dinner, stream and stamp together with the new products introduced from the latest catalog – this time the NEW 2018 Annual Catalog & the color revamp!

Before the event my husband, Larry helped me do some prepping for one of our Make n Takes – everyone who attended was able to make a 2018 Color Ring with the NEW colors! He’s such a trooper! (Watch for information next month about how you can get one of these too.)

I always try to bring a little taste of OnStage back to the group. This time the lovely little butterflies that decorated the tables – at the end of the night team members were able to choose one to take home, just like at the event.

And of course you have to have some “swag” – So I created these fun little Mini Pizza Boxes (144645) using the Picture Perfect Designer Series Paper (145559) and our new Detailed Trio Punch (available June 1st).

The Mini Pizza Box contained a little charm to go on their key chain commemorating the launch of our new catalog.

And of course NEW product displays

And of course we HAVE to stamp – after all everyone wants to use some of those new products! So we did 3 Make n Take projects. (watch for me to share those projects soon)

Laughter, fellowship, and stamping – what could be better?

If you like to learn new ways to use Stampin’ Up! products and would like to be part of a fun group of stampers, my team the Blue Mountain Stampers might be just the thing you are looking for. Click HERE for more information about joining and getting a fantastic stamping kit too.

Hold on to Hope

Posted on April 25, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s cards all use the Hold onto Hope stamp set that you can find on page 27 of the Occasions Catalog. It comes with coordinating Framelits Dies that are rather cool since you can create a decorative embossed look with it simply by adding a card stock shim.

This first card is done in Elegant Eggplant and Old Olive

I’ve given you the supply list for it below. The color combination is one of my favorites.

And here are a few more for you.

The Hold on to Hope stamp set contains a selection of inspirational and uplifting sentiments and was created by one of our own demonstrators, Brandy Cox. Pretty cool, right?

Cool Treats Thank You Card Tutorial

Posted on April 24, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

Cool Treats is fun stamp set with all kinds of options since it is a two-step stamp set. This makes it perfect for our Stamparatus too. Check out these fun colorful thank you cards I made recently.

I chose this pattern from the Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper (144185) since it is filled with all kinds of wonderful colors perfect for sorbets and ice cream.

I totally CASED this layout since I really liked it on a card I received in a shoe box swap last year. What does CASE mean? Copy and Share Everything! You don’t have to reinvent the wheel when stamping, sharing ideas is what it’s about.

Want to make some too? I’ve whipped up a tutorial for this taste treat set.

A Good Day

Posted on April 23, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

It’s pouring here in North Georgia and we’re under a flood watch, my rain gauge is already showing almost 4 inches since it started last night – hasn’t this spring’s weather been crazy? But it’s a good day to stay inside, share, and stamp. So today I thought I’d share some of the cards that I’ve received using A Good Day stamp set found in the Occasions Catalog.

These first two use the Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper (144137).

And isn’t this cute? It uses the Pansy Punch (130698) behind the scallop circle to add interest.

And this one uses our Picture Perfect Designer Series Paper (145559) along with the yummy Berry Burst 3/8″ Metallic edged Ribbon (145489)

And how about this fun metallic look? This card uses our Foil Frenzy Specialty Designer Series Paper (144125) and Metallic Foil Doilies (138392) found in the Annual Catalog.

I LOVE the fact the fact that it has coordinating scallop circle punches that go with the set. What can I say I’m a punch girl. LOL!

Petal Passion Personalized Photo Albums

Posted on April 18, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s project is a personalized album using the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper. I chose this paper because since it is black & white I could customize the albums with my team members favorite color. I think they turned out pretty cool.

I love to pamper my team at OnStage and I thought it would be a fun way for them to keep their memories of the event and the fun they had together. I also made a coordinating bag tag for everyone with charms to go on their key chains later.

I used some Shrinky Dinks for the OnStage piece – fun, right?

I think the team were pleased when they found them in their rooms.

Want to see how to make one of the Photo Albums for yourself?

I’ve made some personalized photo albums by simply changing out the OnStage image and adding a letter using our Large Letter Dies. I also made some quick modifications to the inside – that’s the beautify of this album! You can add pages, change the cover or color, journaling areas – the options are unlimited!

I’ve created some for family and friends too – so I’m all set for my upcoming gift giving needs – got to love that, right? lol

Here is my Petal Passion Personalized Photo Album Video Tutorial

And since you’ll need the supply list and measurements I’ve whipped up a PDF too – I’ve included lots of pictures for you so you can see all the pages finished.
