Courage & Faith

Sometimes we just need a little faith and courage in life and this stamp set uses a lovely font to convey those all important things to our family and friends.

The Courage & Faith Stamp set (161500) was used to create this lovely Thanksgiving card.

The sentiment has been teamed up with the lovely All About Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper (162178), Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder (161600), and lovely Copper & Natural Ribbon Combo Pack (162192). The Deckled Rectangle Dies (159173) give the card a bit more texture and create a lovely focal point for the sentiment. And don’t you just love the Azure Afternoon and Copper Clay combination? Not a traditional fall color combo but it’s quite striking. This next card has a completely different feel with the soft muted colors found in the Hello Irresistible 6×6 Designer Series Paper (161139).

This card is also a fun fold that shows off the lovely patterns of the paper.

Did you know that this lovely Designer Series Paper is part of our Online Exclusives? What exactly does that mean? Have you found this to be kind of confusing? Well Online Exclusives are not found in our printed catalogs, but only in my Online Store. That doesn’t mean you can’t order it just like you normally would, it simply means to see it you’ll need to go to my Online Store.

And this last card uses some Gold & Vanilla 3/8″ Satin Edged Ribbon (159555) to make it shine!

The sentiment has been stamped in the Highland Heather and the boughs in Wild Wheat Classic Inks. It is amazing how the Wild Wheat gives it a feel of gold embossing when teamed up with the ribbon. Fun texture has been added with the Nested Essential Dies (161597) which draw your eye to the sentiment and Stitched with Whimsy Dies (155314) that borders the card front.

The images when you stamp them have shading build in to the image so you’ll get this wonderful soft subtle watercolor look. Check out these card made with the set.

This first card is bright and cheerful with it’s Daffodil Delight blooms. The Daffodil has been teamed up with the Balmy Blue gingham pattern from our Country Gingham Designer Series Paper (160388). And how about this next card done in the same Balmy Blue?

This card uses the Stylish Shapes Dies to highlight the image and the Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 160836) peeks out from behind the Split Card Texture Dies (159162) for a soft subtle feel.

And while these next two cards use the 2022-2024 In Colors they have a completely different look.

Head over heels for Love Cats

If you love our 4 legged furry family members or know someone who does you’ll enjoy the Love Cats stamp set (160410) found in the Mini Catalog on page 13. This stamp set is filled with fun images and puny sentiments.

Cute, right? Check out these cards I received in my recent swap using the set. They both use the Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper (160375) with it’s cute little heart pattern sheets. This first card is done in Sweet Sorbet and Soft Suede.

I love it’s quick and easy layout and fun fold that allows the peek of Designer Series Paper to show. This card base is a quarter sheet of the Sweet Sorbet for the pop of color behind the Basic White layer that creates the fun fold. The 5 1/2″ x 7″ Basic White card stock has been scored on the 4″ mark to create the offset. Simply apply the strip of Designer Series Paper on the inside and you’ve got this great pop of color. The Stitched with Whimsy Dies (155314) highlight our focal point add some fun interest too.

And this next card uses a simple folding technique in order to allow the image to shine!

Done in our Memento Tuxedo Black and using the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch (152709) this is a great card for someone just building their stamping supplies. Punches always make adding the sentiments so easy and also add some dimension. And of course you I love the fact Stampin’ Up! gives us ideas in it’s catalogs too. Do you ever use the ideas to start creating? I know I do, if you’ve never tried why not give it a go? We call it casing – copy and share everything 🙂

Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing a quick treat box tutorial that I made using this stamp set.
