Purple Posy & Lots of Cheer

Posted on by

Great News! If you have been holding off on this years In Colors because you wanted the complete set of Ink Pads they are now available. As of today ALL Purple Posy ink options are now available for ordering.

Here is what Stampin’ Up! said yesterday afternoon – We’re excited to announce that Purple Posy Classic Stampin’ Pads and Purple Posy Classic Stampin’ Ink Refills are available to order. You may now also purchase the 2019–2021 In Color Classic Stampin’ Pads (includes all five of the 2019–2021 In Colors).

Get yours today so you can start stamping with this lovely shade of purple!

Lots of Cheer

And now for some cards, because I know you want to see projects too. Today’s cards use a stamp set found in our 2019 Annual Catalog. The Lots of Cheer stamp set is filled with wonderful holiday images and sentiments. And how fun is this bold font?

This first card uses the bell wreath image, glimmer paper, and the Buffalo Check Background stamp (147797/151372) to create a very sparkly holiday card

And speaking of sparkly – Our Sparkle Glimmer Paper (146957) packs a wow on this card. It’s been teamed up with our Silver Foil sheets (132178) and Rich Razzleberry for a bit of winter brrr.


Done in traditional colors of Real Red and Call Me Clover this card uses our Nested Stitched Label Dies (149638) and the Tufted 3D Embossing Folder (151785)

And this final card uses some of the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper (150432) and the Real Red 1/8″ Curly Ribbon (150426) to create this fun fold card.

The fold is done with some simple scoring so that when you open it you’ll see the sentiment hiding behind the folds.

So what do you think? Have a favorite? Why not leave me a comment and let me know what you think?

I’ll be sharing some more swap with you next week – so don’t forget to stop on by.

I mentioned yesterday I wanted to share some of the wonderful swaps that I have received and so today I thought I would start with a a fun set that has a coordinating punch. The Wrapped in Plaid Suite of products is great with it’s Pine Tree Punch it will make creating cards quick and easy.

Check out these cards – while they all use the stamp set they have such different feels to them. This first card is done using Gorgeous Grape and Granny Apple Green for a much more contemporary feel.

I’m not sure if you can see it in my picture but the little tree has our Ice Stampin’ Glitter (150445) glistening on its branches.

And if you love the more traditional feel, how about these cards?

Don’t you love the rich Shaded Spruce teamed up with Cherry Cobbler and gold foil?

And the Shaded Spruce/Gold 3/8″ Striped Ribbon is a wonderful with it’s gold stripe and it ties beautifully.

Well that’s it for today since it’s so late – stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing when I’ll be sharing some cards made with the So Many Stars stamp set with you.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Perfectly Plaid (*149418)

Paper: Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series paper (149596), Shaded Spruce (146981), Cherry Cobbler (119685), Gold Foil (132622), and Whisper White Card stock (100730)

Team Time Sharing

Posted on by

Tomorrow is my team craft time, I really enjoy this afternoon of crafting together. It is a purely social event when we gather, bring project we are working on and enjoy each others company. Thinking about it earlier today made me realized I hadn’t shared some of the wonderful projects my team shared with me earlier this month.

So here we go – I love the variety of the projects they make. Such talented stampers they always inspire me with their projects.

This first card is a Pop Up Card that uses the Sailing Home Bundle (151066) and other items you can find in the Suite (152175).

Here is the inside – fun right? And did you know that the Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper (149481) is part of our Buy 3 Get 1 Free September Designer Series Paper promotion?

And here is a cute movement card using the Over the Moon stamp set (149331)

I just adore these little cows.

And here is a great use of those scraps you have laying around – a strip card using the sentiment from Free as a Bird (149468)

And how about this over sized card using the Daisy Delight Stamp set (143669) and coordinating punches (143713 and 149517) done in Gorgeous Grape?

And finally a fun fold card made with the lovely See a Silhouette Designer Series Paper (149443) another of our wonderful Papers that is part of the Buy 3 Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper Promotion this month and the Butterfly Gala stamp set (148580).

Well that is it for today – tomorrow I’ll share some of the swaps I received recently.

Perfectly Plaid Card Tutorial

Posted on by

Yesterday I shared with you our first Make n Take from my Holiday Catalog last weekend and today’s card is the second project everyone made that afternoon. The Wrapped in Plaid Suite of products has a lot of wonderful products both for card making and gifts. So it was a natural choice for the event and I love the fact that the Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series Paper comes in a 6×6 size so it is perfect for card making. You are going to love the gold foil that is in the patterns too.

Here is the card – It’s quick ad easy so it is great for making a ton of them for sending this Christmas.

Like it? This tree is so realistic with just one try since the stamp itself has wonderful shading to it. While I chose this tree for my project the plaid tree was also used and looked wonderful too. Don’t you love that? Lot’s of choices from just one set – and with the coordinating punch the choices are endless!

Here is a quick video tutorial for you showing you how I put this card together.

Holiday Catalog Kick Off Gather Together Make n Take

Posted on by

It finally feels a little bit like fall here in North Georgia with some cooler temperatures, while it is still in the 80s there’s a hint of cooler weather coming our way. And after spending the evening last night with my daughter and her band, watching them and the other county’s High School bands perform their half time shows it feels more like fall to me too.

Check out this fun fall card that we make using the Come to Gather Suite of products found in the Holiday Catalog.

This suite is filled with those colors that make us think of fall and I’m loving the Come to Gather Ribbon Combo Pack with it’s rich satin edge ribbon and linen thread – perfect for a range of products.

Today’s card uses the Brick & Motar 3d Embossing Folder to create some texture and interest in the background. Our embossing folders are perfect for this and make it quick and easy too.

Want to see how this card comes together? Check out my video tutorial and of course a printable PDF too.

Halloween is one of those fun days where you can let your imagination carry you away. And Stampin’ Up! has created a wonderful option for creating lots of Halloween goodies.

Aren’t the Ornate Frames simply wonderful? The Ornate Frames Dies set has 11 frames – and these cards show just a few of them!

#imbringingbirthdaysback in September with Gather Together

Posted on by

Ahh… the nip is in the air. Not – at least not for a while yet here in North Georgia. We’re having the hottest September in years. So it is kind of odd to watch all the leaves blowing across my yard when it’s in the 90s. I think mother nature is a bit confused this year.

The start of the school year and football season always makes me think of the fall color and cooler days, so I reached for the Gather Together Bundle to create this month’s birthday card.

What do you think? I used the Woven Threads Designer Series Paper for this card since I thought the texture was a great fit AND I love the fact it is part of our Buy 3 Get 1 FREE Designer Series Promotion this month.

While this set has some lovely sentiments and images,

it didn’t contain a birthday sentiment which I wanted for this project so I reached for the Seaside Notions set since I thought the font was perfect for this card. What do you think? Of course you could use the “Wishing you well” sentiment also.

Check out my video tutorial to see how I made this card.

Want to make some too? Here is a PDF tutorial for you.
