As promised, here is the second of 4 projects I’ll be sharing with you that include a video and pdf with measurements and supply list. You’ll love the simple elegance of this card and a fun sponging technique that is used to create the background on this card.
The beautiful line image that this set uses is so versatile and the sentiments use a lovely font. You’re going to love working with the Suite of products. Since these images that are in the Splendid Stem Dies (159676) are fine lines our Adhesive Sheets (152334) are a great choice to use too.

This time of year the outdoors are calling and hiking, camping and spending the day in our North Georgia Mountains becomes extremely popular as the highways heading north are filled with campers, leaf watchers, and those seeking the peace and quiet of a day with nature. The Welcoming Woods stamp set (156550) evokes those kinds of images in my mind and since this set has all occasions sentients and year round options I think you’ll find this set a great one to team up with sets you might already have.
Check out this first card for fall and it’s striking colors.

Today’s stamp set Approaching Perfection is another of our Sale-a-bration offerings that you can earn for FREE when placing a minimum order of $50. This set is filled with fun sentiments and simple images great for birthdays.
Want to see some fun cards using this set? Well you’re in luck I’ve got a great variety to share with you today. This first card in the bright cheerful colors of Bermuda Bay and Crushed Curry and it uses our Stampin’ Write Markers for a quick and easy way to add two colors to the candle image.
It’s a great card for all ages.
Here is another fun card using the same Stampin’ Write Marker technique, this time in Misty Moonlight and Just Jade. Check out the Champagne Rhinestones (151193) adding a bit of sparkle to the candles.
This next card teams up the bold patterns from the Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 155223) to create this striking card.
And don’t forget our punches. Here the Balloon Bouquet Punch (140609) was used to punch some balloons from the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 155222).
The balloons are tied together with our Misty Moonlight Baker’s Twine from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack (153620) found in the Annual Catalog. I just LOVE how we can mix and match our products and they work together so well!
And these last two cards use color to highlight the wonderful sentiments in different ways.
How cool is that?

I’ve got another project from my Holiday Catalog Kick Off for you – and a couple more Tutorials too! I originally designed this card for my Team Retreat in August, but couldn’t resist sharing it with you too!
This card is a wow with it’s texture and shimmer, that are created with a Copper Shimmer Mist, torn edge and Corrugated layers. And it’s so easy to do!
I’ve created a couple of tutorials for you. The first is a PDF for the card so you can recreate it for yourself it includes both a complete supply list and directions.

Check out this short little video where I show you how you can create your own Shimmer Mist.

Once you play with the Merry Merlot & Copper Reversible Ribbon you’ll want some too – it’s to die for. And the Copper Shimmer Paint! So many ways to use this stuff – you can even use an Uninked Stampin’ Spot (141822) to create your own little Copper ink pad! How cool is that?
On to a couple of things you’ll want to know that are time sensitive:
Did you know that Fast Fuse is back? But it’s only While Supplies Last!
If you’re like me, you thought the days of Fast Fuse were done at Stampin’ Up! (You know . . .since Stampin’ Up! retired the product and everything!) However, our vendor reached out because they manufactured a surplus of Fast Fuse applicators and refills, and they offered to sell their excess Fast Fuse inventory to us. Stampin’ Up! took them up on their offer and purchased 2,500 Fast Fuse applicators and 72,000 Fast Fuse refills.
Whoo! hoo! So you won’t want to delay in ordering yours, since it while supplies last!
Items Approaching Not-Orderable Status
Here’s what Stampin’ Up! has told us.
Sales for the following holiday catalog products have exceeded Stampin’ Up!’s forecast and are continuing strong, resulting in a significant number of back orders. It will be at least 30 days before these items are back in stock.
147905: Santa’s Workshop Memories & More Card Pack 147807: Chicken Wire Elements
These products will remain available until Wednesday, September 19 at 10:00 AM (MT); they will then be placed in not-orderable status. After that you will receive a pop-up notification asking if you would like to be notified via email when these products are back in stock. This will allow you to find out immediately when the status changes for these items and they are again available for purchase.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.
Explanatory note: Costs incurred by backorders can be in the tens and even hundreds of thousands of dollars; therefore, after weighing the variables, we occasionally must make the decision to temporarily turn off an item number rather than permit back orders to accrue. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause; however, putting a product in not-orderable status while we wait for the stock to replenish allows the company to hold costs down.

It’s almost fall and that means Halloween is right around the corner – If you love Halloween you’ll want to check out this fun card using the Spooky Treats & Winter Woods stamp sets from the Holiday Catalog.
This card uses simple sponging and masking to create a wonderfully spooky fall night!
How is it done? First you’ll create a mask using one of the Layering Circle Framelits Dies and a sticky note. Place the sticky note where you’d like it on your Whisper White card stock. Then sponge starting with the lightest color Crushed Curry in a circular motion to begin building the layers of color. Add some Pumpkin Pie and then finish with Blackberry Bliss. Remove the mask and you’re ready to finish stamping.
Yep, it’s that easy. Each time you’ll get a little different look based on your sponging which makes it a lot of fun.
And if you love this punch you’ll love this tip that Sara shared with us yesterday.
The Spooky Bat Punch (148014) cuts out the bats from the Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper (147531) bat images! How cool is that?
You’re going to LOVE all the fantastic products in the Holiday Catalog! Why not come to my Holiday Catalog Kick Off and check them out? But hurry and RSVP by the end of the day September 12th so I’ll have enough goodies for everyone!

On a personal note I know that my posts have been more inconsistent than normal – we’ve had some family emergencies this summer, the latest being a major car accident that my husband was in. It was quite a scare, but thankfully he is ok and on the mend. I’m hoping things will be back to normal by the end of this week. Thanks for understanding.
