Painted Poppies

With the beautiful line art images inspired by fields of poppies this stamp set is sure to inspire some wonderful projects.

Here is a fun card using the Painted Poppies Bundle (153827) which includes a set of coordinating dies. The Painted Labels Dies not only includes dies that will cut out the images but has 5 dies that you can use as labels and trims to accent all kinds of projects. And since this is part of a Suite of Products you’ll have lots of coordinating products too!

If you love this Peaceful Poppies Suite of Products you’ll want to be sure to stop by my Events Calendar and check out my February Class – It includes the Painted Poppies bundle and the class is available both LIVE and as a Online Kit version. Got questions? Just let me know.

This project was one that I made for my team event after we returned from OnStage in November, and contains a couple of quick and easy techniques that pack a wow. You can see how I created the project in my video below.

Free Skate & More

Today’s cards use the Free Skate stamp set (150537) from the Holiday Catalog and are also part of our Retirement List.

This first card uses our Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper that is currently sold out, but the good news is you can get the bundle now and then get the paper next fall when it is available again.

And here is one done in Rocco Rose using our Swirls & Curls Embossing Folder (147923).

Love a timeless look? Here are some cards made with the So Many Stars stamp set (150496) and it’s coordinating Stitched Star Dies (150653) available in a Bundle (153016) while supplies last.

If you love the copper elements on these cards you’ll want to get them now before they are gone since they are included on the retirement list. The Brightly Gleaming Designer Series Paper will be returning in the fall of 2020, yippee.

This next card is done in blues and silver this card uses our Scroll Embossing Folder (Retiring 150665) for a classic elegant feel.

And for my final stamp set today, God’s Peace. This lovely card made using the God’s Peace stamp set (150479) and a fairly easy technique.

This card was created by stamping the image onto a Window Sheet and using StazOn Ink. The image was then colored using our Stampin’ Blends (on the other side that the StazOn was used). The square was cut out and then the image was layered between the pieces of card stock. So striking.

And here are a couple more using the set

Well that’s it for today. Stop by the Year End Close Out tab in my Online Store to see these and other items that we’ll be saying goodbye to in just a few days.

It’s a Yummy Christmas

Have you ever made a gingerbread house? One of my earliest memories of the Brownies is making gingerbread houses out of our milk cartons and graham crackers. Slathering on the royal icing and decorating with candy. I would imagine children don’t have the wax paper cartons like we did, but I’m sure you get the idea. Any how, It’s what I think of when I see this set – including the years of fun with my own kids at the kitchen table doing the same.

Seems just yesterday. Even my husband joined in our annual Christmas baking

Check out these fun cards made with the Yummy Christmas stamp set (150501) and their coordinating dies found in the Annual Catalog, Cuckoo Clock Dies (146632).

Don’t you love how color changes the feel of a project? Same set two totally different feels just by color choice!

And here are a few more for the child in us – The Playful Penguins stamp set (150532) done in traditional red and green

And this cute little guy is stamped with the #Elfie stamp set (150509)

And finally the Birds of a Feather stamp set (150571) was used to create this little card along with the fun copper elements, Star Designer Elements (150430)

Bells are all around us as we get ready for the holidays and this set contains some lovely images. Here are a few cards using the Bells are Ringing stamp set (150476) and it’s coordinating Detailed Bells Dies (150656).

This last one is done in the classic silver and blue combination and uses our Detailed Bands Dies (149549) and Tufted 3D Embossing Folder (151785) to create an elegant back drop.

This next set uses the fun Holy Jolly Christmas stamp set (150471) and Jolly Season Dies (150648)

More Playful Penguins

I got started stamping with this fun set and couldn’t stop stamping with them. So here is another card for you made with these delightful birds, this time my December Thank You card.

This time I’ve teamed them up with the Crackle Paint Background Stamp to create this “icy” look.

Done in shades of blue I really like the way it turned out. And when you use your Stamparatus they are a breeze to make!

Check out how I made this card in my video

#imbringingbirthdaysback with Playful Penguins

I love these little penguins that you can find in the Playful Penguin stamp set, but then I haven’t met a penguin I don’t like since I was a young adult. LOL!

Today’s card is one that I created for my December birthdays

I’ve used the sentiment from the set for the outside greeting, but chose the Itty Bitty Birthdays stamp set for the inside since it has tons of choices. And since I’m thinking snow today, I reached for my Pretty Peacock and Pool Party Classic Inks to use – they worked great with the Come to Gather Designer Series Paper gingham pattern!

Here is a quick video tutorial for you
