Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday! And, happy March 1st!

Here is our newest two week challenge to inspire you –

Optional Theme : Animals

I sort of went with a loose interpretation of animals –

A ladybug! Lol! I just love this Ladybug Builder Punch! It pairs well with this Pattern Party Designer Series Paper!

I think this just made for a sweet card! I love the sentiment stamped in the wings!

The triangle on this card is from the Stitched Triangle Dies. I used the Mini Stamp Cut’n Emboss to cut it out! Conveniently, this little cutter and several dies are on sale for the month of March! Check it out here –

I hope my card inspires you today!

Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop – Love

February 12, 2022 · Leave a Comment

Welcome to our Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week features cards showing love!

I went with a pretty, non-stamped card for my love –

I just love all the textures and dimension. I started with the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder in Real Red and Gold Foil. Pretty nifty how you can cut out the heart at the same time it is embossed!

I wanted the card to be simple in design so I added the die cut words from the new Hear For You Dies. I just trimmed out want I wanted.

It is on a Basic White card base, but a piece of the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper makes a nice subtle visual texture here.

What do you think? Lovely, right?

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

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary challenge!

Here is our current layout challenge –

Of course I used the cute Hello Ladybug Bundle again –

I am just lovin’ this cute bundle! I used 3 of the Pattern Party Designer Series Papers for the background. And added a strip of the Sale-a-bration, Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper for the sentiment strip!

The ladybug was punched and the wings stamped. I placed those onto a stamped, hand cut leaf.

This card is just the cutest!

Happy Friday!

I managed to create a card just because! Well, actually I was inspired by a challenge at Freshly Made Sketches –

I have been playing around with these adorable ladybugs lately –

And when opened –

The ladybug is in the window on a piece of acetate!

How cute is this?!?!

This front, brightly patterned yellow is from the free Sale-a-bration Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper. The strip is from the Pattern Party Designer Series paper.

I stamped the leaf and fussy cut it for easy placement in the window. The ladybugs could have also been stamped, but I made them the easy way with the punch and card stock stamping the dots on the wings.

Just as sweet as can be!

Thanks for the inspiration Freshly Made Sketches!

Happy New Years Day!

I’m on a roll today with my second hop for the day!

Our theme this month is of course, new stuff!

On January 4, a new Mini Catalog comes out as well as the 2 month Sale-a-bration will start.

I just fell in love with this cute ladybug punch! Actually, it is the Hello Ladybug Bundle, stamp set and punch.

I added the Stitched Greenery Die for the background on the Granny Apple Green. It packs such a punch!

Both cards use the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper for a subtle contrast.

I have more pictures on my Facebook and Instagram pages if you’d like to take a look!

I think this bundle will be a big hit come January 4th!

Check out the hop today! You’ll be inspired for sure!

This one is a bit more grown up, or older!

Honestly, the sentiments and colors work well for young and old!

Happy Saturday!

Time to show off what we are working on!

Our theme is anything we are working on!

Well, how about thank you cards?!?!

A great simple layout for mass production!

card base, 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″
DSP, 4″ x 5 1/4″
coordinating strip, 2 1/4″ x 4 1/4″
punched tags

Easy, peasy, and soo cute!

Since the larger piece of Designer Series Paper was striped, I alternated the cards for interest. I was making several more than pictured!

This fun paper is the hostess, Pattern Party Designer Series Paper. I love it! Totally great for these kinds of projects as you get 4 sheets of each pattern in the package, 48 total (yes, you read that correctly, 48)!

This sweet sentiment is the Biggest Wish stamp set, another quite versatile, must have, set to have !

These will be so well received! What do you think?

Welcome Monday!

How about a new challenge from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge to start your week off creativity!?!?

Sending Thanks this week to all my fabulous friends who came out for the Fun Fold Class this past weekend –

Stunning, right?

I used the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle for this pretty –

I die cut three of the flower arrangements and glued them all together to make a thicker piece. I then glued those on the outline of the dies for my focal point.

The stamp set is also from the coordinating stamp set. This lovely scalloped Double Oval Punch made a pretty decorative border to emphasize the Thanks sentiment.

I think these patterns from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper just made this card! You can earn this huge pack of paper, 48 sheets, free when you host a qualifying party!

My love for fall is going strong this week! If only our weather would reflect that! Here is my fun fall cards –

Simple. Clean. Elegant. On-trend. Fall.

I used the Detailed Pumpkins Dies for my stack of pumpkins –

I cut 4 pumpkins out, 2 in Pumpkin Pie, and trimmed each creating the different sizes.

I placed them on a Timeworn Type 3D embossed panel –

I love the subtle texture this folder gives as a background.

My favorite sentiment comes from the Banner Year stamp set. Favorite, because ‘y’all’ is a true Texas word!

What do you think? Pretty nice fall card, right?

Hello my Saturday friends!

Time for a blog hop!

Our theme today is anything we are working on.

Well, I’ve been working on putting out fall stuff around the house. It is my favorite time of the year!

I thought about playing around with some home decor – Stampin’ Up style.

What do you think –

I made, or redid, a wooden pumpkin from a cheapo store!

I added the so loved buffalo check pattern from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper pack. This is a can be your hostess gift with a qualifying party.

Next, I added two die cut leaves from the Intricate Leaves Dies –

Next came the tag from the Tailor Made Tags stamped with Thankful from the Time Of Giving stamp set –

So simply sweet!

The addition of the ribbons just made it! I tied two different ones together. So fall-ish!

Here is what the cheapo pumpkin looked like before –

Pretty sad!

I’d say, this was an excellent makeover, wouldn’t you?

Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Here is our latest two week challenge –

Optional Theme : School Days

I love this layout! Yes, I love a lot of layouts! Lol! I see a lot of possibilities for easy creating with one like this.

I debated making another ‘school themed’ card because my girls are grown adults. But, I like to inspire others. So here is what I went with –

It looks like a chalkboard!

And, look at the cute ‘apple’! Any guesses what I used?

For the sentiment, I used the In Bloom stamp set –

I also used the Pierced Blooms Dies that coordinate with the stamp set. I used one of the leaves for the apple and I used the sentiment piece.

Now, back to the apple. I used a pumpkin from the Detailed Pumpkins Dies. How cool is that!?!?

This card would be awesome for a teacher to wish them well on a great year!

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

Wednesday welcome my stampin friends!

On Wednesdays we have a new challenge at Make The Cards Challenge! Here is our newest challenge –

For many people, it is that time of year again!

When I was designing this card, I was missing the fact we no longer have an apple punch or stamp. So, I got creative!

I used a solid pumpkin die from the Detailed Pumpkins Dies!

I added a hand cut stem and a die cut leaf from the Pierced Blooms Dies to each apple. Sure looks apple-like now to me!

For the sentiment, I die cut the shape first. It is also from the Pierced Blooms Dies. I got strategic when I stamped it. It is from the Many Messages. I used the Stamparatus to stamp only that one image on a already cut surface.

I’d say not to bad of a job!

This card would be great for a teacher or a student going back to class this fall. These words ring soo true. Especially here in Texas where the Covid variant cases have skyrocketed in children and schools are back to wearing masks again.

Please join our challenge this week at Make the Cards Challenge! We’d love to see your creations! We all use a variety of products, so use your favorite and join us!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary sketch challenge!

Here is our newest color challenge –

I decided to make a sweet little baa-by card –

Don’t ewe thinking this is just adorable?

These little sheep are a Sale-a-bration item you can get free this fall! Here is the Counting Sheep stamp set –

And these are the coordinating Sheep Dies –

If you like these, get them ASAP, because when they are gone, they are gone! Either can be yours free with a $50 USD purchase before tax and shipping.

I also like these sweet little balloons in this set. I bet I’ll be using these more!

The sentiment is from the Hippo Happiness stamp set. It coordinates well with a few ‘ewe’ sayings.

Additionally, I used the Scalloped Contours Dies and the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper.

I’d love to know what ewe think of my sweet card!

Check out the Design Team creations on our Create with Connie and Mary blog. Create a card using our challenge and you can post it on our Facebook page.
