Floating & Fluttering Thank You Card Tutorial

Today I’d like to share another tutorial with you. I’m running a bit behind because my internet is having issues. So please bear with me as I work through this problem over the next few days. Today’s card uses the Floating & Fluttering Bundle found in the 2021 January – June Mini.

This bundle of products doesn’t contain sentiments so it was perfect to team up with the FREE Sale-a-bration stamp set Heal Your Heart (Sale-a-bration 152291) that you can earn when you purchase this bundle and spend $50 in product.

Want to see the card now? I chose one of my favorite color combos for it – Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green.

When doing a technique like blending colors you’ll want to choose colors next to each other on the color wheel rather than across from each other for a more pleasing feel. If you use colors across from each other you’ll get a more “muddy” look when you blend them.

If you don’t remember your childhood art class basics, there are primary colors Red, Blue, and Yellow.

When primary colors are mixed with the color next to them you get the secondary colors, orange, violet, green. And of course, if there is more of one of the primary colors in the mix that is more dominate, you’ve got the tertiary colors or 3rd set of colors.

If you’ve been stamping for a while you probably do this intuitively with your color combinations without even realizing it as we all have color palettes we use repeatedly because they make us happy.

On to the tutorial. I’ve created both a video and PDF for you that I wanted to share.

Quite Curvy Note Pad Holder & More

Whew! The week is flying by and tonight starts the Stampin’ Up! OnStage@Home event. I’m excited about this opportunity to gather with my fellow demonstrators from around the world. It’s sure to be a jam packed 3 days as always and while it is not a live event in Salt Lake as planned originally I’m just happy that I’m able to participate this way from home. Stampin’ Up! never disappoints at these events.

I didn’t want to spoil the surprise earlier this week, but by now everyone should have received their little goodies in the mail. So….. today I thought I’d share with you a fun project that I made as a gift for my team members that will be joining me for the OnStage@Home event. I just love the Quite Curvy Bundle so I started there.

I just couldn’t resist these sweet little birds and the fact that the sentiments curve along the die cut edges! So want to see what I made?

Here you go this soft and sweet note pad holders

I’m really pleased with the way they turned out and I had some sticky notes and flags that I thought went perfectly with this project too!

So what do you think? Want to learn how to make your own? While you may not have the same little flags and sticky notes I’m sure you can find some similar sized for your projects. Or how about a sticky note and mini calendar? The options are endless and I find that one of the fun things about creating a gift like this.

I’ve put together a video tutorial for you. It’s a bit longer than my normal videos, but it shows you the how to from start to finish. And as always I’ve given you a printable PDF with a complete supply list and step by step instructions.

Quite Curvy Note Pad Holder Video Tutorial

I’ve also got this great tip for cutting out your stamped images with our dies. Do you ever miss cut? I really hate that and this quick little tip REALLY helps!

How to Cut Die Cut Images Consistently Video Tutorial

So what do you think? Helpful? Why not give it a try and then leave a comment to let me know if you like doing it this way. Either way I hope this little tip helps you with your crafting too!

And now without further delay here is that printable PDF I told you about with the complete supply list.

Quite Curvy Note Pad Holder Tutorial PDF

To go along with the note book I created a little treat bag to celebrate the event using our fun 3×9 Gusseted Cellophane Bags (151312) filled with a variety of items.

Beautiful Autumn Thank You Card Tutorial PDF

Have you ever wondered why I include both the ink pad AND refill number in my PDFs? Well back when I started stamping I only purchased the ink pads and then when I needed the ink refill I didn’t have them. Lesson learned, now I always suggest purchasing them together – no headaches when you need to them and are in the middle of the project your making. AND even more fun there are some great techniques that use those reinkers by themselves too!

Enjoy and you’ll want to make sure to keep reading until the end for the supply list.

Beautiful Autumn Tiny Treat Box & More Team fun!

Yesterday I shared the Home Decor project that we made at the Peak Princess event this past weekend, today I thought I’d share the little treat item that I made.

They are filled with these fun fall Hershey’s Kisses that I found locally.

I just love the colors of the candy – yes, I do shop for candy that way. (My daughter thinks this is a pretty crazy way to shop for chocolate, but she is always on the hunt for me too!)

These treats were quick and easy to make for everyone. I have whipped up a quick video so you can make some to if you’d like.

Beautiful Autumn Tiny Treat Box Video Tutorial


And of course it’s always fun to have a PDF that contains a complete supply list for projects. So here it is.

Beautiful Autumn Tiny Treat Box Tutorial PDF

I also mentioned I’d share some more photos so here are a couple from the classroom.

This last picture is of the Sweet Potato Crostini I made for the event. The marshmallows spent a bit too much time under the broiler I’m afraid. Don’t you hate that? But they were still quite tasty.

They were a big hit with my guys so I thought you might enjoy the recipe – they are light, tasty and easy to do.


Sweet Potato Crostini

2 T. sugar

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

24 slices 1/4″ thick French bread baguette

2 to 3 T butter, melted

Topping:

2 c. mashed sweet potatoes

1/4 c. chopped pecans

3 T. packed brown sugar

2 T. butter, melted

1 1/4 c. miniature marshmallows, halved

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix sugar and cinnamon. Arrange bread sliced ona baking sheet. Brush with butter; sprinkle with sugar mixture. Bake until lightly browned, 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven; preheat broiler.

Mix sweet potatoes, pecans, brown sugar, and butter; spread over toasts. Top with marshmallows, pressing lightly. Broil 3-4 inches from heat until marshmallows are lightly toasted, 1-2 minutes.


So easy and tasty too!

Enjoy!

Team Fun & the Gilded Autumn Pumpkin Home Décor Project

This past weekend I gathered with my Team, The Blue Mountain Stampers for a special biannual event. This event allows us to gather and celebrate everyone’s accomplishments over the last 6 months. We have a special project, along with prizes, and appetizers. So today I thought I’d share our project that we made.

This project was a lot of fun to make and everyone’s turned out differently since they could decide on which patterns they wanted to use. Here is mine.

I really love the colors and patterns of the Gilded Autumn Suite of Products and so I couldn’t resist making a home décor item with them. I also really love the way the little swirls of copper ribbon finish off this project. They are so easy to make – I bet you are wondering how I made them too!

You’ll need a wooden skewer or dowel along with your heat tool and Heavy Spray Starch. Yep, that’s it! You’ll also need a bit of patience as you make them since it does require some dry time tho. I’m not sure how they would hold up outside, but since I’m planning on using this project inside my home I wasn’t worried about our heavy Georgia humidity of late.

Want to see how we made them? Here is a video for you.

I’ve also included a link for the pumpkins and PDF pattern on this Tutorial for you.

Want to make some of these too? Here is the information on the wooded pumpkins for you that I found on Amazon along with a PDF pattern for this pumpkin.

Fun new project using the Best Dressed Suite

Today I’m going to share with you a fun project that I created to hold a couple of post it note pads. I think it’s a great little gift to give someone too! Want to see it?

So what do you think? It uses the Dressed to Impress Bundle and the stamping is on the inside for a little surprise message along with two little post it note pads.

I used what I had here in my closet of goodies but of course if you wanted to you could put a larger post it note pad inside – I did see that they come in the bigger size when I went looking the other day. I was just too impatient to wait on a delivery to start working on my idea. I call it a purse but really I guess it is a clutch since it doesn’t have handles. 🙂

I’ve got a video tutorial and PDF for you so you can make some too! They are pretty simple to make.

Timeless Tropical Treat Tutorial

Today’s project is one that I whipped up as a special treat for those that had signed up originally for my live Class last weekend – while the live class didn’t happen as schedule those folks will still get this little sweet little surprise with their kits.

These treats hold 3 Ghirardelli Chocolates and I just happened to be in luck and have enough hidden from my husband in my class room. The caramel and crunchy caramel pecan wrappers were the perfect color combo for this project as they picked up the colors from the fruit in the Tropical Oasis Designer Series paper.

Want to see how I made these quick little treats? How about a 3 minute video?

Enjoy!

Just a note, due to the Covid-19 some of our items are taking a bit longer to receive and because of that ordering has been turned off (since they are on back order) until more supplies arrive in late April.

You can currently purchase the refill for the Saddle Brown StazOn Ink (152820) and a package of Ink Spots (141822) to use as I did in this video until the full size ink pad is back in stock in May. Ink spots are great to use especially with your Stamparatus and for travel.

  • 151297: Label Me Fancy Punch
