Lovely Day Note Card Tutorial

Posted on March 3, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

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.

Lovely Timeless Tulips

Posted on February 28, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

I really enjoy using the Timeless Tulip stamp set and it’s coordinating punch. I’ve shared some card tutorials with you using this bundle and today I’m going to share a few more cards with you that I received in a swap.

These first two cards use just the stamp set and 2 step stamping.

The Garden Lane Designer Series Paper (149488) was used on this first card to give a bit of texture and interest. And this second card done in Melon Mambo uses the sentiment from the Very Versailles stamp set (149275) found in the Annual Catalog to create an elegant feel.

It’s a fun fold that opens a bit differently too.

This next card is a 3d Pop Up Card that folds flat for mailing. I love the look, reminds me of a planter filled with tulips.

And finally some punch art, this card uses just the Tulip Builder Punch and our Pigment Sprinkles (149663) to create this fun colorful octopus. I hope you can see all the depth that has been created simply by using the punch and some Stampin’ Dimensionals.

How fun is that? Simply punch in different widths for the octopus’ tentacles and use the leaves for waves under the little guy. I just love it!

So which is your favorite? Why not leave me a comment and let me know what you think?

Then stop back by next week when I’ll be sharing some of my card tutorials with you.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Timeless Tulips (*151534)

Celebrating with Birthday Jubilee

Posted on February 27, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

The Birthday Jubilee was a bundle that I passed on by when I first saw the Mini Catalog and flipped through the pages, however after seeing some of the wonderful cards created with this bundle I’ve taken another look. Does that sometimes happen to you? It’s the fun part of being a stamper – sharing our ideas.

Check out these two cards made using this bundle that is perfect for our birthday needs.

This first card was done in our In Color Grapefruit Grove that has been over layed onto a piece of our Parisian Blooms Specialty Designer Series Paper and embossed with our Black Embossing Powder. I hope you can see just how striking the card is in my picture.

And this next card is done with shades of blue – Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point and my fav, Coastal Cabana.

Do you recognize the punch used to frame the sentiment? It is the Starburst Punch found in our Annual Catalog and it’s perfect for that little extra pop of color!

So which is your favorite? Why not leave me a comment and let me know?

The Power of Hope Bundle

Posted on February 26, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

Have you seen this wonderful bundle in our Sale-a-bration brochure? It’s one of the choices you have and it’s a bundle that contains a really cool Stone 3D Embossing Folder.

Here are some wonderful cards that I’ve received using this bundle.

I thought this simple technique of using the Whisper White Baker’s Twine to create an interesting back drop was a pretty cool trick. Depth is added with the frame that has been embossed with the Stone 3D Embossing Folder and then popped up using our Foam Adhesive Strips (141825).

And how about this next card done in Cherry Cobbler and Sahara Sand?

Everyone loves a fun fold too.

I just love the positive sentiments that this stamp set contains.

Happy Birthday to You

Posted on February 25, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s cards were created using the Happy Birthday to You Sale-a-bration stamp set. This set is one that you can earn for free when placing a qualified order during Sale-a-bration.

It also has a set of dies that are part of our Coordination Product Release promotion (153590) and also coordinates with the Paper Pumpkin kit from this month if you are a subscriber.

Check out these lovely cards using the set.

The first one is done in soft subtles and uses the Bird Ballard Designer Series Paper (149592).

And this next one uses a bold red and black combination taking advantage of the black and white patterns from the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 152311) that you can also earn for free.

Both of these projects were colored with our Stampin’ Blends – so that makes them quick and easy!

And how about these lovely projects?

I just love the way the coordinating dies allow us to cut out the images. Check out this fun Pizza Box. Aren’t the flowers lovely by themselves? Perfect for spring or special occasions like a spring wedding.

Shining a spotlight on the Blue Mountain Stampers

Posted on February 19, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

Each month we gather and share as a team. And so today I thought I’d share some of the swaps that everyone brought this month.

These first two cards use items that you can earn for free during Sale-a-bration with a qualifying order. This first card uses one of my favorite sets, Thoughtful Blooms and it’s coordinating Small Bloom Punch.

Done in Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green and Poppy Parade it’s bright and cheerful.

And this next card uses the Power of Hope and Stone 3D Embossing Folder Bundle found in the Sale-a-bration brochure.

It a trifold that opens to create a screen

If you love dies you’re going to love this next card that uses the Poppy Moments Dies (151594).

This set of dies is filled with beautiful images that stand alone, but also can be purchased with the coordinating stamp set, Peaceful Moments as a bundle (153824). The sentiments cover all kinds of occasions for your crafting needs.

This next card teams up the very popular Painted Poppies stamp set (151599) with the Beautiful Moments stamp set (151677).

Colored with our Stampin’ Blends it is quite striking

And finally a fun box card using the Hoot Hoot Hooray stamp set (152871) and the fun Dinoroar Designer Series Paper (149589) found in our Annual Catalog. Perfect for those little dinosaur lovers in your family!

Like I said, it’s always a lot of fun to see what everyone is up to during the month.

#imbringingbirthdaysback with Timeless Tulips

Posted on February 18, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

It’s raining again here in North Georgia and so my crafting has been reflecting my dreams of spring being right around the corner!

Today’s project uses the lovely spring Pleased as Punch Designer Series Paper, one of our Coordination Products that are available for a limited time. You can see all of them HERE.

I love the soft subtle colors for spring and the fact that the Pleased as Punch Designer Series Paper coordinates with our punches is an added bonus. I always love another way to use a punch. How about you?

I’ve whipped up a quick tutorial for you and a video which includes some quick tips for getting the most from this paper.
