Easy to Make Handmade Card Featuring Broadway Birthday Stamp Set

Hello, my crafty friends. Hope you enjoyed last week's blog hop with fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the United States, United Kingdom and Canada! I had loads of fun creating my scrapbook page. You will have to check back from time to time to see if I keep up with my scrapbooking.

This week I thought I would share a quick card and gift card holder inspired by the June Paper Pumpkin kit that coordinated with the Broadway Bound suite found on pp. 68-69 of the 2018-2019 annual catalog.




It will be really easy for you to recreate. And don't you love the alternating 2018-20 In-Colors around the marquee (the picture doesn't do it justice; I hope you can see that). Also, I wanted just a small embellishment to the left of the lower sentiment so I borrowed the star framelit from the Wood Crate Framelits. If you need any measurements or additional information for recreating this card, please feel free to message me. (I am on Instagram now too!!)

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! Leave a comment below with a trail to find you so I can see your creations.


Stamp On!!

July Blog Hop Featuring Lilypad Lake Stamp Set and Lakeside Framelits


Hello my crafty friends. Welcome to the July Blog Hop! I am participating in a blog hop with fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the United States, United Kingdom and Canada! You might be starting the blog hop right now, or you may be coming from Emilie Poncelet's blog. Welcome one and all.

The theme for our blog hop this month is travel and scrapbooking. I must say - I have not been bitten by the scrapbooking bug. I thought that this blog hop might just give me the push I needed.



For this project I am using a three-pocket polypropylene page protector from the Variety Pack 6" x 8" Photo Pocket Pages (p. 194, Item #144205, $6). The top two slots are 3" x 4" (trading card size).



I picked the Post Scripts Background stamp for the upper left slot and trimmed with the Best Route Washi Tape. Placeholder for the upper right slot is a piece of the Garden Impressions DSP and a cute little bow until I can find just the right photo. (Don't forget that DSP is on sale this month. See business notes at the end.)



The 4" x 6" slot is a beachy scene featuring the cool waves and sail boat stamp from the Lilypad Lake stamp set and the coordinating framelit for the sail boats. Too cute. Couldn't resist adding the Adirondack chair from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits die set. 

I hope you have enjoyed venturing into a little scrapbooking today with me. Leave a comment below with a trail to find you so I can see your creations.

Quick and Easy Handmade Thank You Card Using Varied Vases Bundle

Trying to get back on my schedule of posting every Wednesday so just a quick card today.  This cute little 3x3 card is my thank you card for all online customer orders this month. The Varied Vases Stamp Set and coordinating Vase Builder Punch makes it so easy. The border around the entire card base is the Best Route Washi Tape.



I would be remiss if I didn't tell you about the specials this month so check out the "Business" section below. But, most importantly, if you have ever thought that you might like to be a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, now is the time! It is $99 for the starter kit (your choice of product valued at $125), free shipping, and one (1) color collection of the ink pads (worth $67.50). That is a savings of just over $100! I would love for you to join my team - You cannot pass this up!

Finally, I have to close my order for mailing customer copies of the Holiday catalog by the end of the month. So hurry and place an order if you have not placed an order yet this year and I will add you to the list. I do not want you to miss out!


Stamp On!!

You Can Do It | Recipe for Detailed with Love Handmade Card

Today I would like to show you how you can make this quick and easy card using the Detailed with Love stamp set, a small strip of Designer Series Paper (DSP) and two (2) oval dies.



The card base is half a sheet of 8 1/2" by 11" Crumb Cake card stock, scored at 4 1/4" for a side folding, portrait card. Before adding the layer of Night of Navy card stock measuring 4" x 5 1/4", secure a strip of the new Garden Impressions DSP -- I am totally in love with this DSP!! -- measuring approximately 2" by 5 1/2" along the left side of the card front, and wrap around the layer a 14" long piece of Night of Navy baker's twine and tie in a sweet, small bow just left of center. Then adhere this layer to the card base.   

To create the embellishment, the sentiment is stamped in Night of Navy Classic Ink on Whisper White card stock. Now I had no trouble getting a perfect image, but if you have the new Stamparatus stamp positioning tool, there will be no question that you will have the most perfect image. If after you stamp this sentiment from the negative you are not satisfied with the saturation, you will just ink up the sentiment again and stamp it in exactly the same spot for a perfect sentiment. 

Cut the sentiment with an oval from the coordinating Layering Ovals Thinlits Dies. Cut a slightly larger scallop edge oval from the Layering Ovals Thinlits Dies. Secure the two together using your favorite adhesive. Maybe you would like to pop up the embellishment with some Stampin' Dimensionals to give the card some depth.

Be sure to stamp a lovely sentiment on the inside of your card as well. I am certain your card is perfect!!


Stamp On!!
