You Always Lift Me Up

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

I decided to play with new stuff for this sketch!

I started with the Take To The Sky Designer Series Paper –

I made a card layout first for the different sizes and pieces. Following the sketch, I filled in with the Designer Series Paper. I stamped some clouds and a sentiment from the Adventurous Sky stamp set. It coordinates with the paper.

Although not on the sketch, the Ombre Decorative Mat Dots finished off the card giving some balance.

Check out the other Design Team cards on our Create with Stamping Friends blog. You’ll see some fabulous ideas! Please join us for the challenge too!

Bye Bye – Create with Stamping Friends Saturday Blog Hop

April 13, 2024 · 4 Comments

Welcome stampers!

Thank you for joining us for our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week is retiring products we will miss.

Where do I begin? I am always very sad to see all these wonderful products retire, but equally as happy to see new products as join us! It keeps the creative juices going!

I am sad to be losing an unusual staple, these Stitched With Whimsy Dies –

Look closely at the card and you can see the dashed line on the right side –

They are sooo subtle but add just a little something to cards to elevate their look. I recommend grabbing them as they are marked down to $17.40, from $29. That is a huge savings!

Of course, this Let’s Go Fishing Designer Series Paper is ~~retiring~~, sold out, as most DSP’s retire when a new catalog comes out.

I will also miss this newly acquired, Filled With Happiness stamp. I hardly had anytime to get to know it. It is pretty cool how the Modern Oval Punch fits so well with it. I recommend grabbing both this stamp and punch (not retiring) before they are not available.

The inside of this card is pretty nifty too –

All in all, this is simple a wonderful masculine or fish lover card! Wouldn’t you agree?

Go forward to check out Melissa Davies, and back to Cindy Elam. I know they’ll have some great ideas for us!

We will see you next week with more great inspirations in card making!

Happy Retirement

Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Here is our newest two week challenge to inspire you –

While, I did not used flowers, I used these instead –

Some men would probably consider these as good as flowers, lol!

This is the new Gone Fishing bundle, stamp set and dies. It is awesome!

(It has soo many great dies, especially the tackle box!)

I stamped and die cut the bobbers, adding some coordinating Designer Series Paper behind them. It is just awesome!

This stamp set also has several great sentiments, however, I went with retirement. We just don’t see enough retirement cards these days.

If something looks familiar on the card, it is probably the return of Misty Moonlight. I used both the card stock and ink here.

Check out out the other Design Team cards on our Try Stampin’ on Tuesday. We all use a variety of products, so come join us with what supplies you have! All of our challenges are two weeks long.

Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Here is our newest two week challenge to inspire you –

Optional Theme : Anchors Away

The ship sailed on the theme here, however, still an awesome card share today –

I used this floral Heart & Home Designer Series Paper and made a masculine-look card!

Look closely at the Cinnamon Cider back piece – it is embossed with the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. Adds some nice detailing and dimension!

The Cinnamon Cider card stock will be retiring along with lots of great products. Check them out here –

The pattern paper will retire in June. This stamp set, Whiskey Business, will still be in the upcoming catalog! Whew!

I colored the decanter and glass using Blends and the Color Lifter. Yes, these were fussy cut! This great sentiment can also be found in the same stamp set!

What do you think? Pretty cool masculine card, right?

Blogging Friends Blog Hop – Red Hot Love

February 5, 2021 · 3 Comments

Happy Friday!

Thank you for stopping by!

To start our day, we will share a lot of ideas with a blog hop.

Our theme is Valentine, ‘red hot love’. Surprise, I am NOT using my favorite kit today, lol!

How about a red hot note for your loved one?? Lol!

I used the Lots of Hearts bundle for this sweet card.

Look at all these pretty dies –

The Many Hearts Dies cut the two hearts, as well as the nifty XOXO at the top and bottom!

The center of the heart is the Love You Always Designer Series Paper. Here are the other three colors in the pack –

Blushing Bride, Rococo Rose, and Sahara Sand. All so pretty with the foil accents! Pictures do not do it justice at all!

What do you think? I’d love you to leave a comment before you head on to the next blog!

Check back later today for my FunFold Friday project!

Stampin’ Up Supplies –

Stamp Set – Lots of Hearts
Dies / Embossing – Many Hearts Dies
Bundle – Lots of Hearts
Card Stock – Sahara Sand, Basic Black, Real Red

Birthdays, Balloons, and Bricks, Simple Saturday

I have a quick share today before my Card Buffet.

I really love this idea of a simple card and a stepped up version. A lot of stampers go through this process anyway in creating cards. I know I did with this card –
