Today’s project uses the Most Adored Designer Paper (Sale-a-bration 162976) that is filled with lovely patterns on one side and gold foiling on the other.

I’ve chosen to use the pattern side to create this easy card to send a bit of love my daughter.

This card was quick and easy to stamp with it’s bold sentiments since I used the More Wishes Stamp set (162324) that you can find in my Online store since it is part of our Carry Over list.

Bee My Valentine Card Tutorial

Posted on by

Yesterday was a crazy kind of day and so I didn’t get to share with you my weekly tutorial, but with the rain coming in again this afternoon it is a great time to spend a little time crafting! So here you go.

Today’s card uses the Bee Mine Suite and is quick and easy to create since it uses punches. The adorable Bee Builder Punch (162553) makes creating this fun little bee quick and easy and the 2″ Circle Punch (Online Exclusive 133782) will make your stamping so easy too. I love sentiments that are punched out like this since they make everyone successful. I know as a beginner stampers I loved punches since if I needed to stamp again I didn’t have to start all over again and could just do the one image or sentiment.

Here is a video tutorial for you

And of course a PDF that you can print that even contains the YouTube Link for easy reference!

Adorning Hearts

Posted on by

The Adorning Hearts Stamp set (162563) is an elegant one with it’s lovely flowing font and floral images.

It also has a coordinating Hybrid Embossing Folder and dies making it a lot of fun to create with.

Today’s cards all use the stamp set to create lovely card for celebrating your loved ones. This first card uses non traditional Valentine colors and fun gate fold card to create a lovely soft feel. The heart shape floral wreath has been stamped in Pool Party Classic Ink with the sentiment stamped over top.

The Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper (161157) sets the color pallet for the project. And the Lost Lagoon 1/4″ Bordered Ribbon (161171) adds a bit of texture. For a more traditional look this next card uses our Real Red and Flirty Flamingo. While it uses the same heart shape wreath it has a very different feel to it. Don’t you love how a simple change in color does that?

The wreath has been colored with our Flirty Flamingo and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends giving it a soft feel. The background uses the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (156505) to add a bit of texture along with the NEW Baker’s Twine Three Color Pack (162759) and a few Basic Rhinestones Jewels (144220).

This next card teams the sentiment from the set with the Most Adored Specialty Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 162976) that you can earn for FREE during Sale-a-bration.

It’s a beautiful pack of paper with gold foiling and images that will coordinate with the different Mini catalog products.

The Valentine Card has been stamped in Real Red and uses the dies from the Adorning Hearts Hybrid Embossing Folder & Dies (162569) and the Real Red heart uses Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder (156392) to put a song in it’s heart. Love that as I have a band director for a daughter and can’t resist music themed items! A couple of the FREE Opaque Faceted Gems (Sale-a-bration 162979) add a bit more texture to the sentiment panel. Look form them on page 9 of the Sale-a-bration Brochure, they are easy to miss and you’ll defiantly want some.

Whew – that’s a lot of Sale-a-bration products you can choose from when you place a qualifying order during Sale-a-bration. Remember you can earn as many free Sale-a-bration products as you wish during January and February!

Bee My Valentine Skinny Milk Box

Posted on by

Today’s I’m going to share a fun treat item that I made for my team OnStage@Home event using the Bee Mine Suite Collection (162560) from our January Mini Catalog that is going LIVE on January 4th. This Suite is filled with fun items for creating Valentine treats and more!

Since it’s winter it’s always dry here in North Georgia so I thought some lip balm would be a great little treat to place inside. Dry skin is a constant issue during the winter. I was lucky to find a fun advent calendar of them at Sam’s Club so everyone got a fun “flavor” to choose from. Here are some photos from that event. First here is a shot of our table ready to create the projects they shared with us for Make n Takes. I’ll share projects those with you soon.

And here is our group that was able to join me for the streaming event – even the youngest crafted with us. So adorable!

Want to see how I made this Skinny Milk Box so you can make them too? Here is a quick tutorial for you along with the PDF which has a complete supply list and measurements for you so you can plan for your treats and order the supplies when the catalog goes LIVE.

Skinny Milk Box Tutorial PDF

So be sure to stop by my Online Store and make sure you haven’t missed something you’ve been wanting before it’s gone.

Team Valentine fun

Posted on by

Since tomorrow is Valentine’s Day I thought today I’d share projects from my Team Meeting this last week. Each month as a group we gather, stamp together, and share what we’ve been doing since the last time we got together. I always love to see what everyone has been stamping and each month there is a theme to inspire them for this swapping time.

This first fun fold card was created as a no stamp project. Instead it uses our Heart Punch Pack (151292) and Country Lane Floral Designer Series Paper (160375).

It also uses the Opaque Adhesive Backed Gems (160412) and fun White Glittered 3/8″ Organdy Ribbon (156408).

Fun right? And how about a little box using the same products?

This box was created using my video tutorial HERE. It’s such a quick and easy box to create you can whip up a punch of them in no time and it holds quite a bit too! Next is a fun spinner card using the Easter Bunny Bundle (160606) for a non traditional use of the set along with the same punch and paper.

Did you know that at times items like the Easter Bunny Punch (160331) can go onto Back Order? With popular items like this sometimes we run out and haven’t gotten our next shipment in. When that happens you’ll see a “Currently Unavailable” message listed on the product. I’m more than happy to let you know when the item is back in stock if you drop me an email to [email protected]. If you don’t see the item in my Online Store at all and you’ve double checked the item # you used, that means the item is no longer available. As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

And last but not least is this cute little card using the Rain or Shine Suite (160556) of products.

I just love the shinny UV Coating on this guy’s rain coat – too cute right? This card uses some of our retired products also to make it a valentine card. I love the way that all our products work together whether they are new or retired. It’s part of what drew me to Stampin’ Up! to begin with – everything coordinates so well.

If you love Stampin’ Up! and think you’d enjoy a group to craft with have you ever thought about purchasing the Starter Kit? Right now, during February and Sale-a-bration we have a even more fantastic Kit to begin your crafting journey! And you’ve got 3 kits to choose too! Join for just $99 for our basic kit of $175 in product or join with the $129 Kit and get to choose a Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss in addition to the $175 in product. And great news shipping is FREE when you buy the kit!!!

Send a bit of love with the Country Bouquet Bundle

Posted on by

Today’s cards are a lovely way to say to someone special that you love and care about them. Not only does the Country Bouquet Bundle (160383) include wonderful sentiments and images it also includes a punch! I love the ease of a punch!

And this Bundle is part of a Suite of products (160390) that coordinate so you can start creating quickly too.

Check out these fun cards using the bundle. This first card uses the punch as a focal point for a sweet and easy card. The ribbon and sequin adds a bit of texture.

And this next card uses the punch to punch out the images from the Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper (160375). A bit of the die from the Two Tone Floral Die (159181) is tucked behind the Nature’s Prints Label Die (158800).

Don’t you love how you can use products that you already have with new ones? And of course if something goes on back order you can try the individual items or wait until they come back in stock. If you’d like me to notify you when they do just let me know by dropping me a line at [email protected]
