Lift Me Up Chocolate Slider Card

Posted on January 23, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

Do you love to make a little something for family and friends for Valentine’s Day? I found these cute little boxes of chocolate recently and couldn’t resist making something with them.

This little project is so quick and easy and since the Lift Me Up stamp set has a lot of sentiments to choose from you could make this project for all kinds of Occasions!

The lid lifts up so that you can write a little something under the lid and the box of chocolate slides out for easy access. My hubby is going to love that. LOL!

Want to learn how to make one for yourself? Here is a quick and easy video tutorial for you.

Hello Sunshine

Posted on February 12, 2016 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s cards were some that I received in swaps and are created using products that are limited time Sale-a-bration items. I think these two stamp sets are a wonderful addition to any stampers collection since their sentiments cover all kinds of occasions.

These first two cards are created with the Hello stamp set (141240/141243). Joanne gave me this bright and cheerful Hello card. It also uses our Sale-a-bration Perfectly Artistic Designer Series Paper (141021) which is one of the three products only available until February 15th.

And this card uses our yummy Mint Macaron In Color along with Blackberry Bliss.

I love the way that Kate tucked the Silver Metallic Thread (138402) behind the layered Flower Medallion (137417) and Pansy Punches (130698). And can you see the embellishment that adds a bit of shine to the center of the flower? It’s one of our Itty Bitty Accents Epoxy Stickers (137856).

And here are some samples using the Sky Is the Limit stamp set (141282/141349). This first one Roxie designed for Valentine’s Day. It uses the Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper Stack (140548).

And another from Tanisha. I love the quick and easy clouds she sponged for the background.

And these next two use the Sale-a-bration Perfectly Artistic Designer Series Paper (141021).

And finally this card from Joanne She used one of my favorite Designer Series Paper Stacks from the Occasions Catalog, Going Places (140581). I just love the White Vellum cardstock (101856) propeller and Neutrals Collection Candy Dots (130934) she added to it.

Something so small – just makes this a special little card.

Did you know that there were just 3 more days to earn 3 of our Sale-a-bration items? Pages 16 – 19 include two stamp sets and some beautiful Designer Series Paper that are only available to earn until February 15th after that they’ll be gone – so why not get your favorites before it’s too late.

It’s Love at First Sight

Posted on February 4, 2016 by Stamp with Jini

Have you check out the First Sight stamp set found on page 36 of the Occasions Catalog? It’s a great set that includes all kinds of images that are great for all kinds of projects – not just Valentine’s Day. In particular the vine images are great to create collage type backgrounds.

Today’s card is one I stamped for a good friend of mine that I’ve know for years.

I think she’ll enjoy getting this card in the mail for Valentine’s Day. And since she loves her flower garden I know she’ll enjoy the little images that fit perfectly inside our Sweetheart Punch!

Bloomin’ Love Note Holders & More

Posted on February 3, 2016 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s projects are some that I made for my daughter and her college friends. After all who doesn’t need post its when you’re writing all those college papers, right? I know my desk is littered with all kinds of notes – over the years them become my to do lists. LOL!

I found these cute little note pads at my local dollar spot and knew they would be perfect for the kids. This first one is an easel holder. I wanted to make it look like the notes conversation hearts – so I chose one of the sentiments and stamped it onto So Saffron card stock and then punched it out using my Sweetheart Punch (133786).

I used the soft Wisteria Wonder pattern from the Have a Cuppa Designer Series Paper Stack (140567) to add a bit more umpf. And keeping it soft, I teamed it up with the Mint Macaron and Blushing Bride card stock. The colors once again reminded me of the conversation hearts that have been around forever.

This second little note pad is a bit more elegant and holds the second post it note pad that came in the package – since it only had two little hearts in the corner of the pad I went a bit bolder and used our Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper (140655) and pulled the colors Watermelon Wonder and Mossy Meadow for the card stock base.

I then used my Stampin’ Write Markers to color the stamp. I added a third color, Early Espresso, for the words and of course once again the Watermelon Wonder and Mossy Meadow from the In Colors.

I love punches, they make things so easy and my 2″ Circle was perfect for this sentiment. If you’re new to stamping our circles and scallop circles are a great place to start – they’ll make quick and easy focal points such as these!

And the final project for today is a card that uses the Bloomin Love stamp set.

It’s raining once again here in North Georgia so it was tough to get a good photo. I hope you can see the richness of this Gold Embossed heart. Maria used the soft Blushing Bride card stock and teamed it up with our Basic Black for this classic look.

So which is your favorite?

Bloomin’ Love

Posted on January 28, 2016 by Stamp with Jini

Have you seen the Bloomin’ Love stamp set in the Occasions Catalog? It’s got some great images and a coordinating Thinlits Die that is gorgeous. While this set is great for Valentine’s it is also wonderful for other occasions such as anniversaries and weddings.

Here are two cards I received in my recent swap that use the Bloomin’ Love suite of products.

This first one is from Joanne – simple and sweet. I love the bit of Pink Pirouette Seam Binding that adds more texture to the card.

I’ve given you the full supply list below.

And this second one is from Marni – Isn’t the Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper lovely? I find I am reaching for it time and again. I can’t get enough of this stuff.

Marni also used the sequins from our Love Blossoms Embellishment Kit (140551) to add a bit of bling.

I can’t decide which I like best – so why not leave me a comment and let me know which is your favorite.

Then stop by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing more cards with you that use this suite of products.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Bl oomin’ Love (140643)

Bear Hugs & What I Love

Posted on January 27, 2016 by Stamp with Jini

Do you love bears? If so, I think you’ll love this cute card that I received from Marilynn in my recent swap. It uses our Bear Hugs Bundle (140822/140823) found on page 40 of the Occasions Catalog.

This card is perfect for Valentine’s Day since it was teamed up with our Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper Stack. I like the fun addition of the Silver Glimmer Paper for the bow time and skirt too. What do you think?

And this second card is from our exclusive Sale-a-bration selection of stamps. The What I Love stamp set (141276) is a photopolymer set that includes 10 stamps. It is considered a two step stamp since you can build layers of color to create more depth.

Two step stamps are a lot of fun to play with because the color combinations are endless and allow you to create a ton of different looks from just one set of stamps.

Laura used Wisteria Wonder and Elegant Eggplant to create this lovely blossom. And can you see the elegant Venetian Crochet Trim (134581) peaking out from behind the Modern Mosaic (129984) embossed layer? What a great way to use this trim!
