I’ve loving all you can do with the Painted Poppies stamp set and today I’ve teamed it up with the So Sentimental Stamp set for a #simplestamping project that is my March thank you card.
This card is #simplestamping since it only requires 2 ink pads and card stock. It’s also a great for new stampers since you can combine the sentiment set with the image set of your choice.
I’ve used one of my favorite colors – Coastal Cabana to create these wonderful bright poppies. And since poppies come in all kinds of colors you could change it up with your own color choice.
Here is a quick video for you so you can see just how simple this card is to make!

And of course who doesn’t like a PDF to print off with a complete supply list and step by by tutorial?
The Lovely Day stamp set is found in the February Paper Pumpkin Kit and is just beautiful. So I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it and start creating. Here is what I came up with.
I reached for my Note Cards & Envelopes (144236) since not only is this a great size, but it is wonderful choice since you get both the card base and envelopes in one package at a great price, making it a economical choice. I’ve colored it with our Stampin’ Blends. I love this coloring choice since it gives us such vivid colors and they really are sooo easy to work with. And coloring is relaxing too which is an added bonus, right?
Here is a quick video showing you how I created this card.

It’s time for another card tutorial! I created this little card for my Team Winter Retreat Shoe Box Swap a couple of weeks ago and set it aside to share with you.
Unfortunately, it got buried on my desk. I tend to set things in a safe place so that I can find them later. And then well, can’t. lol, Do you ever have that problem? Well you’re in luck since today I found the card and I’m sharing this project along with some of the other Shoe Box Swaps that I made too.

And here are some of the fun Shoe Box Swaps that I made during the Winter Weekend Retreat. This first card uses three of our lovely Sale-a-bration items the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper (152284) and the Lovely Lily Pad stamp set (152288) with their coordinating Lily Pad Dies (152315)
This next card uses one of our great masculine choices from the Mini Catalog, Clubhouse (151583) This stamp set is part of our Country Club Suite of Products (153930)
I love how the little tufts of grass and sentiment are placed on the inside panel.
And how about this next card uses products from the Tropical Oasis Suite (153941)? They’ve been teamed up with the free Sale-a-bration Metallic Baker’s Twine & Sequin Pack (152314) that you can earn when you purchase the Timeless Tropical Bundle (153811).
And a fun card uses our Best Dressed Suite (153926), after all who doesn’t love shoes?
And finally this vintage feeling card uses the Very Versailles (149275) and Butterfly Gala (148580) stamp sets found in the Annual Catalog.
Whew. There was a lot of stamping going on during our 8th Annual Winter Weekend Retreat. It’s hard to believe I’ve been holding this event for my team for 8 years already! The time has flown by with a lot of sharing and laughter.
If this sounds like fun to you why not learn more about my team HERE. We love welcoming new stampers. Sale-a-bration is a great time to join with the extra stamp set of your choice, along with the Mini Trimmer and Designer Series Paper Sampler! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
As promised today I’ll be sharing the card I designed for the NE GA Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Shoe Box Swap that I hosted last weekend. I really love the way this card turned out. Lovely Lipstick just seemed to be a perfect choice for this card since I was choosing the lipstick image.
I’ve used the coordinating Best Dressed Designer Series Paper stack for this project since I really like the fact it has both lovely floral patterns on one side and then graphic patterns on the other that play off the stamp set images. Great for all kinds of occasions cards this spring.
I’ve put together a video tutorial for you along with my standard PDF with the complete supply list and step by step how to.
And how about some of the other participants cards too?
This first card was created using the From My Heart Suite of products (153931) and is perfect for that someone special.
The lovely From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper (151189) has been teamed up with our Heart Doilies (151191) and Form My Heart Faceted Gems (151154). Do you recognize the little hearts? It from the Stitched Be Mine (148527) Dies from the Annual Catalog. One of my favorite things about Stampin’ Up! is the coordination they give us so you can use our new products with ones you already have!
This next card uses our Sale-a-bration stamp set, Thoughtful Blooms (152290) that you can earn for FREE when placing a qualifying order.
It also uses the fun Metallic Baker’s Twine & Sequin Combo Pack (152314) another item in our Sale-a-bration Brochure that’s you’ll have fun using on your projects.
Done in Soft shades it has a wonderful spring feel to it. Don’t you love how the same set can look so different simply by changing your color pallet? I shared an project with you earlier this week HERE using colors from our Regals family. Why not check it out?
