Flowers they are a sign that spring is here and they are popping up all over as the weather warms here in North Georgia. Today’s card uses those pretty florals to create a lovely card that will make anyone smile.
and the Florals in Bloom Suite (Last Chance 165193) are part of our Last Chance List and are retiring? Stampin’ Up! recently updated our Last Chance products in my Online Store so if you haven’t had a chance to check it out now is a great time since when they are gone they will be won’t be coming back.
It’s that time of year – as we say goodbye to our 2025 Annual Catalog and 2024-2026 In Colors I thought I shared a card using the New Stampin’ Positioner (available in the May-August Mini) and one of our Last Chance Stamp sets, Thanking You stamp set (Last Chance 163718).
I love this kind of stamp since this big bold image makes creating thank you cards sooo simple! Check out today’s card highlighting this stamp that is leaving.
This card uses a easy heat embossing technique that allows you to have any embossed color that you’d like to heat emboss in. AND the Stampin’ Positioner (167768) makes this technique super easy.
Here is my video tutorial for you sharing this fun little card.
And of course a PDF with the link, supply list, and more!
Who wouldn’t love getting this card? And cutting this angle to create the pocket is super easy – simply score the card base at 5 1/2″ like normal, then place the score line on your trimmer and cut from the score line to outside edge of the card stock. Yep, it’s that easy!
The Nature’s Symphony stamp set (166919) is a stamp set that contains both images and words making it a great set to work with as you get started stamping.
Today’s card uses our Old Olive and Calypso Coral Classic Inks for a bright cheerful look that matches the sentiment chosen.
The color combo makes you smile, right? It did me when I saw it. And this card also uses a fun Old Olive Specialty Rickrack (167006) for a bit of texture which is a lot of fun.
Looking for some earthy colors to go with the masculine sentiment? Why not check out the Nature Walk Suite (166936)?
This suite is filled with soft colors and spring images and some great accessories that you can use for all kinds of things. Check out today’s card using these products.
And fun little pops of Secret Sea and white have also been added using the suite’s Moody Palette Glossy Dots (Online Exclusives 167180). These lots are a great low profile way to add a bit of shine and they come in an assortment of 4 colors.
Today as I wake up to the 30s again after warm sunny days I’m channeling warmer spring weather and thinking about summer fun. So today I’m sharing with you a fun little card using the Silly Safari Stamp set (165254) and some simple stamping.
Today’s card is done in bright cheerful colors and highlights the adorable little giraffes.
Cute, right? I really enjoy using this fun little set since it is great for coloring with our Stampin’ Blends. and has some fun year round sentiments for all ages. And if you have little ones wouldn’t it be a fun set for a birthday party? Kids love zoo animals and I can see all kinds of 3d projects you could create with this set, how about you?
Why not check out my little video tutorial and see how I created this card?
I’ve also got a PDF with the supply list, measurements, link and more!
Cold & Flu season isn’t over yet this winter and so I thought I’d share with you another card I created with the Hugs & Healing Stamp set that has been retired. This card uses my Card Sketch #5 which is a versatile sketch that can be used for all kinds of sets.
Done in our soon to be retiring 2024-2026 In Colors Petunia Pop and Pretty in Pink it is perfect for a animal lover this spring.
Here is a quick tutorial for you so you can make this card too.
Tulips – childhood memories of them lining the walk way to the front door. My mom loves tulips and would always have them on the table for Easter morning if she could.
Today’s card highlights those lovely spring tulips with a fun stamp set and dies to create a wonderful spring card conveying love to family or friends.
This card is done using Lemon Lolly, Pool Party, and Pretty in Pink. A bit of sponging has been done around the vase to make it pop and the negative spaces of the die have been used to add tulips behind the die cut tulips for addition interest and depth.
I love the way that dies can be used in different ways and this die is rather fun since it not only cuts but also has some lifted elements on the largest die. You can see that HERE on an earlier card I shared with you.
Remember as we approach the end of the Mini Catalog next month things may go into back order or even sell out. Stampin’ Up! has given us the ability to be notified when things arrive back in stock simply by entering our email address when asked. It’s a great way to keep on top of things you’re wanting that may be in back order. and of course if the Suite is on back order you may be able to order things individually the 10% saving is on the bundle/s not the Suite of products.
Enjoy this lovely spring day or thoughts of spring. I know I am going to enjoy some of the sunshine we are currently blessed with before next week’s cold blast.
