At Peace -Stampin’ Up! Card

Hello there,
I decided to take a break from all of the holiday cards to create this peaceful scene using the direct to paper technique.  This scene does not represent what is happening in my own backyard however.  I woke to a dusting of snow on the ground.  The chickens popped their heads out the coop door this morning and gave me a look that said “what the heck?”.
I’m so with them.  I’m not ready for Winter at all.
Now today’s  card can be given for so many occasions.  Great one to have on hand.  I would feel comfortable giving this card to either a male or female.
You can find the complete supply list and how to the get the tutorial for this project free or by purchase below.

A Million & One Thanks – Stampin’ Up! Card

Thank you to all of our Veterans today and every day!

The Best on Earth:
A Veteran’s Day Tribute

If someone has done military service,
They earn the title “veteran,” and more;
They earn our deep respect and admiration;
That they are special no one can ignore.
They sacrificed the comforts we enjoy;
The list is long of all the things they gave.
Our veterans are extraordinary people;
They’re loyal, dedicated, true and brave.

When terror and invasion were real threats,
They showed us they could handle any storm.
We owe our freedoms and our very lives
To our veterans, who served in uniform.

Our veterans should be celebrities;
They’re exceptional; no other group compares.
We’re grateful for the many things they’ve done;
They’re always in our hearts and in our prayers.

We owe our veterans support and friendship;
Let no one ever question what they’re worth.
These men and women served us and our country,
Our veterans–the very best on earth.

By Joanna Fuchs

White Deer – Stampin’ Up! Card

Hey There,
Well another month has come and gone.  I cannot believe it is November already.  I hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween.  The weather was not cooperating with the Trick or Treaters  in our neck of the woods, winds of 40-50 miles an hour and rain, rain, rain.  I hope our ghost and goblins had a much better night.
I’ve got a masculine card for your today using the new Remembering Christmas .  I’ve been having fun using this stamp set in cards that you can use all year around, not just Christmas.  I paired the Remembering Christmas stamp set up with the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Chalk Talk set “I’m so grateful there’s you in the world”.  That sentiment can be used for so many occasions like thank you, birthday, anniversary, etc.  I would say this card is more an all occasions man card, with no frilly bows.  I think we all need to keep this type of card on hand, don’t you?

Warm Wishes Wetlands – Stampin’ Up! Card

Hello There,

I have so many ideas flowing through this mind of mine after browsing the stamps and accessories from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Happiness Catalog.  I wonder if I will ever get all of them down on paper before the Winter Holidays arrive.

One idea was to use one of the Festive Flurry Framelits (132193) as a frame for a Winter scene.  Check, I got that idea done this morning.   I’m feeling pretty good that I was able to pair that idea up with a Winter scene using the Stampin’ Up! Wetlands (126695 wood or 126697 clear).

Flock Together – Stampin’ Up! Card Tutorial #588

Hello There,

This morning I felt like getting inky by doing the Direct to Paper Technique to create this background for the Quail from the Stampin’ Up! Flock Together Set.   I used nice cheerful colors so the quail would really stand out in the foreground.  Check out the tutorial below for this card.

********************************************

I’ve added this card to my sales page where you will also find some great deals on retired stamp sets.  CLICK HERE TO CHECK IT OUT

********************************************

Now on with today’s tutorial. . . . .  . .

Project Supplies:

Stamps: Stampin’ Up!  Flock Together (item #126732), Postage Due (item #126397), Travel Journal Wheel (item# 126937)

Card Stock: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White, Marina Mist, Soft Suede and Pacific Point

Ink: Stampin’ Up! More Mustard, Marina Mist, So Saffron, Soft Suede, Pacific Point, Basic Black and Lucky Limeade

Accessories: Stampin’ Up! Sponge, postage stamp punch, Soft Suede and More Mustard Markers, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Big Shot Machine and Fancy Fan and Argyle Embossing Folders

On a 4.5″ x 2.5″ piece of Whisper White card stock I drug the Marina Mist ink pad directly across the card stock (Direct To Paper or DTP Technique).

Drug the So Saffron ink pad across the bottom of the card stock.

Drug the More Mustard ink pad lightly over the So Saffron.

Drug the Pacific Point ink pad very lightly over the left hand corner of the card stock.

Added just a bit of Lucky Limeade ink using DTP and the very edge of the ink pad.

Drug the Soft Suede ink pad across the very bottom of the card stock.

Stamped the quail using Basic Black ink.

Colored the wing in using a More Mustard and Soft Suede marker

Used the Travel Journal Wheel and Soft Suede ink along the top of the card stock.

 

Stamped the postage stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Postage Due set using Marina Mist ink on Whisper White card stock.  Punched it out using the Postage Punch.  Sponged Soft Suede ink around the edges.

Added a Marina Mist panel, Pacific Point panel embossed with the Fancy Fan embossing folder and a strip of Soft Suede card stock that has been embossed using the Argyle Embossing Folder.  The Soft Suede strip has also been cut so there is two sections.

Adhered the main image panel on to a Marina Mist panel.  Added the postage stamp.  Popped the main image panel up using Stampin Dimensionals.

Here is the finished card measuring 4.25″ x 5.5″.

May you be safe and warm with the one’s you love.

Until my next post. . . . . .

Introducing Photopolymer by Stampin’ Up!

Always wanted to be a graphic designer?  My favorite part about design is typography. I adore type. There’s just something inherently beautiful about letterforms and what happens when you stack them to create different shapes and combine them to say different things.  So without further adieu, let me introduce you to the Designer Typeset Stamp Set. It’s based around a really great san serif font that will work well on just about any project. And then there are embellishments and shapes to take whatever you want to say to the next level. The possibilities are seriously endless.

I’ll admit, once you start playing around with the stamp set, you will have a hard time stopping!

But before we get too carried away, let’s get to talking about the benefits of photopolymer stamps. For those who are unfamiliar, let me point out a couple of things that are really cool.

First, they’re completely clear, making it oh-so-easy to stamp exactly where you want. They come unmounted, on an acetate sheet, and temporarily adhere to our clear blocks. Awesome!

Second, they are pliable. Want your arrow to shoot a certain way? No problem! Want your banner to have the perfect sag? Easy peasy! Being able to play with the shape gives you even more creative freedom.

So let’s get down to the nitty gritty. The Designer Typeset Stamp Sets in the online store starting now. So just click HERE to order yours today!

Pop Up Posies Pond Scrapbook Page – Tutorial #571

 

Hello There,

I’m still on my mission to get all my pictures out of frames that are sitting around and get them into Scrapbook frames to hang on the wall.  Today I am focusing on a photo of my Mom.   She passed over 2 years ago and I still found myself teary eyed though the process of this page.   I hope she is looking down smiling at me and what I did with her picture.  I also hope you enjoy the project and give it a try using the tutorial I created below.

The background is created using the direct to paper technique.  I created the lily pads using a circle die cut and the flowers are from the Stampin’ Up! Pop Up Posies Designer kit that can be found in the Stampin’ Up! Spring Catalog.

Now on with today’s tutorial. . . . .  . .

Project Supplies:

Card Stock: Stampin’ Up! Summer Starfruit, Early Espresso, Soft Suede, Calypso Coral, Always Artichoke

Ink: Stampin’ Up! Early Espresso, Primrose Petal, Soft Suede and Marina Mist

Accessories: Stampin’ Up! sponge, Sponge Dauber, Bone folder, Big Shot, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Clear Circle Die, Fancy Fan Embossing Folder, In Color Dahlias (127556), Pop Up Posies Designer Kit (131395), Timeless Type Alpha Dies (retired)

 

Started with a 11.75″ x 11.75″ piece of Summer Starfruit card stock.  Dragged the Marina Mist ink pad from the top of the card stock down to the bottom over and over until the color was all the way across.

In the same manner added Soft Suede ink.

Added Early Espresso ink in the same manner only just around the edges.

Die cut the Clear Circle die using the Big Shot Machine and Always Artichoke card stock.  Cut 4.

Cut a wedge out of the side of the circles.

Sponged Early Espresso ink in the center and on the edges of the circles.

Embossed the circles using the Fancy Fan embossing folder.

Added the lily pads to the page along with a 6 x 8 piece of Soft Suede card stock.

For each flower you will need 3 of the Calypso Coral flowers from the Pop Up Posies Designer set.   Sponged Primrose Petal ink in the center of one of the flowers.  Took a bone folder and curled the petals of all three of the flowers.

Assembled the flowers by turning the bottom flower so the tips point down and the add the other 2 flowers with the sponged flower on top.  Added a Summer Starfruit Dahlia to the center of the flower.   Adhered the flowers to the page using Stampin’ Dimensionals so they are popped up.  Made 5.

 

Added a Calypso Coral tag that has been embossed with the Fancy Fan embossing folder and Big Shot Machine.   Clipped a V shape in the bottom of the card stock and sponged Early Espresso ink around the edges.   Added Die Cut letters spelling “Mom” in Early Espresso card stock.

Added The picture with a Calypso Coral and Early Espresso card stock panels behind it to the layout using Stampin’ Dimensionals so it would be popped up.  Also added a Summer Starfruit 12 x 12 panel to the back of the layout.

Here is the finished project.  🙂

May you be surrounded by those you love today.

Until my next post. . . . . .
