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 used the sketch portrait style instead of landscape. Look how sweet –

A sweet Valentine card! This pattern paper, Cute As Can Bee Designer Series Paper, was my choice for a Love You card.

I used the Bubble Bath Two Tone card stock embossed with the Sale-a-bration Starstruck Embossing Folder. I decided to use the Pretty In Pink as my card base for some contrast.

I cut the ‘circle’ from the Around It All Dies hidden behind the strip of Designer Series Paper.

The accent is vellum from the Graceful Greenery Vellum. Did you see the little hearts? Love this die!

This is just as sweet as can bee!

Check out the other Design Team’s use of these colors this week on our Create with Stamping Friends blog. You’ll see some fabulous ideas! Join us for the challenge too if you’d like!

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

I created a pocket card from the sketch –

These bright, cheery colors are from the Sale-a-bration paper, Toadstool Gardens.

It matches wonderfully with the Terrific Toadstools Bundle, stamp and punch. It is fun, playful, and retro!

Here are the two card insets I created. Simply adorable!

Favorite 2025 Sale-a-bration Products

January 11, 2025 · 2 Comments

Welcome stampers!

We are a group of stampers who get together weekly in blog form to create with a theme each week. This is our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

Since Sale-a-bration is in full swing, our theme this week is our favorite Sale-a-bration item.

I am showing two today, the Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper, and the Purple Adhesive Backed Sequins in this sweet card –

I also featured the Hugs For Love Bundle. I always love a great punch and this is another must have shape. It is nice as there is another coordinating stamp that goes with the punch too!

I added a simple triple bow as well as the Sale-a-bration sequins to the card.

Does this card make you smile?

Be sure to go around and check us all out! We also love to read comments too. Take a few minutes to say HI, or why you liked our project for the week.

Next up is Melissa Davies, back is Cindy Elam. Keep going to see all of us and an assortment of Sale-a-bration products.

See you next week with more great inspirations!

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary challenge!

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

We don’t seem to have enough masculine cards, so I went with a masculine theme for this challenge –

This uses a combination of great products starting with the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper (from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog and a Sale-a-bration option), followed by the Blueberry Bushel Thoughtful Expressions medallion that the Brewed Dies beer glasses are on.

To finish off the card, the sentiment comes from the Brewed For You stamp set.

This is a fun, quirky card for the beer lover in your life!

Check out the other Design Team cards on our Create with Connie and Mary blog. You’ll see some fabulous ideas! Join us for the challenge too if you’d like!

Birthday Happiness

February 17, 2024 · 10 Comments

Happy stampin’ my friends!

Thanks for joining us today!

Our theme today is birthday!

I just love this cheery cherry pattern from the Sunny Days Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper. I thought it’d make a great birthday card –

I used the Filled With Happiness stamp set that coordinates with the Modern Oval Punch! Of course, I threw in the Cherry Builder punch too! Because it matches soo well!

This layout is fun and happy! Not to mention simple! Love a great go-to layout!

Pick Me Up with Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop

February 17, 2024 · 2 Comments

Welcome stampers!

Thank you for joining us for our weekly Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week is get well or thinking of you cards.

I decided on a sweet style of card to let a friend know I am here for them –

This Let’s Chat is just simply adorable! I mean, who doesn’t like a retro phone?

I stamped both phone pieces in Calypso Coral and cut them by hand. Both are really easy shapes to cut, even if you do not like to cut things by hand!

I added a short piece of silver cord and twisted it a little to curl for the phone cord.

I bet you are wondering what paper and card base I used?

I used the Sweet Thoughts Memories & More Cards & Envelopes! I trimmed one of the card bases to 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, standard card size. It was already scored at 4 1/4″.

For the background I took one of the envelopes and cut it apart. I used the envelope front, a lighter shade of Calypso Coral, for the frame, and the inside of the envelope, which is floral, for the cut up pieces!

These Sweet Thoughts Memories & More Cards & Envelopes are in the Mini Catalog, but were added to the Sale-a-bration list a couple of weeks ago, so I got them free with a minimum purchase. You have until the end of the month, about two weeks, to get your Sale-a-bration goodies!

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, 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!

Don’t forget it is Sale-a-bration too!

Bright Skies Birthday Blooms

February 8, 2024 · 4 Comments

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary challenge!

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

I love these colors together! I created a simple floral card using the Bright Skies Dies –

……well, not so simple as it opens, you see white peeking from behind the front –

And opened all the way –

It is like a Z-fold but a little different.

I used the Simply Scored to create the scored lines on the back of my card front making the lines raised on the front. These help placement of these adorable flowers!

Being that I didn’t want to add anything to the front of the card, the sentiment went on the inside hidden panel.

You can see my fold here –

Pretty cool, huh?

Note, I did add the Basic White panel to an embossed piece of Poppy Parade using the Sale-a-bration embossing folder, Softly Sophisticated. It is just soo pretty!

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary challenge!

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

I had fun with this one –

This Cutest Cows Bundle is just that – cute! I stamped and colored it adding a head punched using the coordinating punch.

I added this fun pattern paper from the Sunny Days Designer Series Paper. These bright colors are great with this card.

The Gingham Ribbon finished it off nicely.

I Think I Love You with Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop

January 27, 2024 · 4 Comments

Welcome stampers!

Thank you for joining us for our weekly Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week is Valentine cards!

We have some of the best Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper this time around. For instance, the Most Adored Designer Series Paper. I just have to show off both sides –

…and opened –

Very nice, right?

I just love it! To make the heart opening on the front, I used the Hooray for Surprises Dies. After I made the cut, I assembled the card and stamped the sentiment through the heart as there is plenty of room to do so!

I trimmed the Designer Series Paper and the leftover strip, I placed on the inside of the card.

The heart that was left from the front, I used as an envelope seal! How cool is that? Either side would work nicely and can be seen from open or closed!

The Flirty Flamingo double bow on the front ties in the colors. This card would be suitable for the guys in your life too! Wouldn’t you agree?

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, 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!

Sweet Treats Blog Hop

January 17, 2024 · 10 Comments

Hello crafty friends!

You are in for a Sweet Treat today!

As we are having a blog hop featuring all things sweet!

I choose the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle along with the Sale-a-bration Mostly Adorned Designer Series Paper is got free! This bundle is nothing but cute!

I love how the vellum lets you see the Designer Series Paper, but it makes it more subtle!

I went with a ‘strawberry swirl’ ice cream using the dies only. However, there are stamps that I could have stamped the ice cream with.

The die cut cone detailing is very nice too!

I stamped the sentiment and cut it apart for a more playful, fun look.

What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?

Love Is In The Air with Stampin’ Dreams

January 11, 2024 · 8 Comments

Welcome to the Stampin Dream Blog Hop!

We hop monthly to share a different inspiration. This month, our theme is love is in the air!

The bee My Valentine Bundle is just the cutest –

Only for mine, I used Flirty Flamingo and Real Red to match the Most Adored Designer Series Paper I got free during Sale-a-bration! It turned out soo cute! I added a piece of vellum over the wing to soften the colors and it just looks great!

Instead of using a layer of card stock for my heart strip pattern, I used one of the pieces of Designer Series Paper! It is more subtle but you still get the idea of it standing out. Dimensionals help too, lol!

Well, are you a fan of the bee in these colors? I’d love to hear what you think! Leave me a comment and tell me your thoughts.

What is Old is New Again

January 6, 2024 · 9 Comments

Happy stampin’ my friends!

As we start a new year, I am trying to get reacquainted with old friends! These stampers are some of the best!

Our theme today is basically something old, redone with new products. Here is my older project –

Here is my recreation of it using some Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper as the focal point –

Pretty cool I’d say. We always need masculine cards and this is perfect!

I used the Modern Oval Punch for the sentiment again as it works so well and is still current. To get the nifty pieces behind it, I used the Curved Label Punch. This is how I did it –

This is simply a great card!

You can choose this Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper or any of the other terrific items during Sale-a-bration.

Welcome to a Share it Sunday blog hop!

Grab a cup of coffee or a mimosa and get ready to see a lot of great ideas today!

I am having a class this weekend and decided to create just one more card to choose from –

I used this gorgeous Sale-a-bration bundle, Friendly Hello for this card. A similar card is shown in the Sale-a-bration brochure. I gave the idea my own spin.

The cluster surrounded in green is actually from one of the patterns in the Designer Series Paper pack. I added the additional stamped images of the double flowers, thin leaves, and the berries. After, I cut the image out by hand.

I added the focal point to a piece of vellum, then placed that on another piece of Designer Series Paper from the pack.

I did insert a sweet little ribbon piece, adding some Patel Pearls near the top to tie in the colors.

Do you ever copy card in the Stampin’ Up catalogs? I’d love to know what you think of this card!

Take some notes or Pin my card and check everyone else out today!

Hello my Sunday stampin’ friends!

Thanks for joining our hop today! Our theme this time around is Sale-a-bration! It is now twice a year and only for two months each time! You have until the end of February for this one.

I think this Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper is pretty sweet for a set of cards –

Simply elegant, right?

I managed to get 3 cards from each sheet!

The additional pattern pieces on each card are the trimmed strips used in different ways!

Each card is simply created. The sentiments are all from the same stamp set, Flowing Flowers.

The Designer Series Paper really did all the work here!

I forgot to show the inside –

I just added a piece of Very Vanilla!

I will offer this as card kit for free! An incentive in addition to the Sale-a-bration item chosen for orders of a certain amount. If you’re interested, reach out to me!

In the meantime, check everyone out on the hop today!

Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Here is our newest two week challenge to inspire you –

I went with a sweet sympathy card –

I used the Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper, Daffodil Afternoon for this card. I love the 70’s retro colors!

The sentiment is from the Artfully Layered stamp set. I love the font! It matches the paper nicely.

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.
