Quick and Easy Handmade Card Featuring Winter Woods Stamp Set

Hello, my crafty friends. During our virtual workshop on Saturday (the 18th), I shared our first holiday card for the year using the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set. Today I am sharing with you a quick and easy card using another carry-over set, Winter Woods. I borrowed the sentiment from the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set.

The card base is a side fold A2 (cut 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4") in Crumb Cake cardstock. The stamped layer of Night of Navy cardstock is cut 5 1/4" x 4" and stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink using the Buffalo Check Background Stamp. The trees are die cut using the Woods Dies and the solid trees are outlined using the Stampin' Chalk Marker. You may recognize the Snowflake Sequins - a Returning Fave from the 2019 Holiday Catalog.

Do not forget:  Bonus Days are almost over (August 3) so finalize your July orders before the end of the day Friday. I will have a new host code created on Saturday for August order. If you need more info, check out my biz news following today's project notes for all the details.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! Feel free to leave a positive comment below with a trail to find you so I can find your creations out on the "www" - I look forward to it.


Stamp On!!

Simple Stamping Challenge Featuring Daisy Lane Stamp Set

Hello, my crafty friends. Hope you were able to find some time for crafting this past weekend. Bonus Days is in full swing and there is only 12 days remaining to earn additional rewards with purchase. Be sure to check out my biz news below (following today's project details) for all the information on Bonus Days.

The Simple Stamping Challenge for July is to create a Thank You card with only stamps, ink and paper. I love the Daisy Lane Stamp Set!
#simplestamping
#simplestamping

The Daisy Lane Stamp Set has small and large daisy flower images and coordinating punches, however I wanted to show you how easy it would be to create this card without the punches. I had to go outside this stamp set for the "Thank You" sentiment. (Editor's Note: UGH!! After posting this morning, I discovered that the "Thank You" sentiment and the triple mini daisies from the Daisy Delight Stamp Set were retired upon the release of the 2020-21 Annual Catalog, Daisy Delight. I must have missed this when I was organizing my stamp collection back in June. :(  My apologies!! I can suggest 3 alternates for your consideration: Thank You sentiment from the Ornate Garden Suite (Item# 154153, pp. 64-67), or the beautiful smaller Thank You sentiment and super cute flowers from the Blossoms in Bloom Stamp Set (Item# 152684, p. 51), or finally, the large Thank You sentiment from the Best Year Stamp Set (Item# 152568, p. 133.)

The card base is a side fold A2 (cut 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4") in Mango Melody cardstock. The stamped layer of Whisper White cardstock is cut 5" x 3 3/4". After stamping the medium-sized daisies once, I stamped the flower image a second time coloring the daisy centers using the Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker.

Can you spot the techniques used on this card?

Give this super simple card a try! You could try it in any color, your choice.

After creating this card, I took the card up a level for my online workshop this past Saturday using both the daisy and the medium daisy punches in Daffodil Delight cardstock and sponging the flower petals with Mango Melody ink. You can find the video on my Facebook page, [CLICK HERE] but here's a clip from the video that shows off my card.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! Feel free to leave a positive comment below with a trail to find you so I can find your creations out on the "www" - I look forward to it.

July Paper Crafting Blog Hop

Hello, my crafty friends. Welcome to the July Paper Crafting Blog Hop! I am participating in this blog hop with fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators from across the globe! You might be starting the blog hop right now, or you may be coming from Sandra Roberts' blog (great project, Sandra!). Welcome one and all.

This month everyone's projects feature Designer Series Paper ("DSP") from the 2020-21 Annual Catalog. I think you would agree with me that the choice is difficult as there are so many excellent choices. For my projects today, I thought I would use the Flowers for Every Season 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper. The sheet I picked from the 12 double-sided sheets is quite subtle compared to the others in this collection. It features beautiful lighter shades of Cinnamon Cider for the rose, among Misty Moonlight flowers and background, and a sprinkle of Just Jade leaves - all new 2020-22 In Colors.

My project is a simple 3" x 3" gift box. It may hold 5 or 6 cards depending on the height of your embellishments. I make Thank You cards in this size that I tuck in with my hand-delivered customer orders. I am gifting this box of cards (so no picture of the cards inside!), but I have included a picture of a couple of full size cards.

How cool is that Denim ribbon? It coordinates perfectly with Misty Moonlight! The box base and card bases are Just Jade and the accent pieces are Shaded Spruce. These colors coordinate perfectly, too! Plus, for a splash of color, I picked Melon Mambo for the cutsie butterfly and flowers cut from the Well Written dies.

As always, thank you for stopping by my blog today! Feel free to leave a positive comment below with a trail to find you and your creations out on the "www" - I look forward to it!. Do not forget to check out the great project by our next blog hopper, Sue McDonald.

Easy Handmade Card Featuring Jar of Flowers Stamp Set v2.0

Hello, my crafty friends. Last week I shared a handmade card from last month's Facebook Live Virtual Workshop using the new Jar of Flowers Stamp Set and Jar Punch (Bundle). This week, I am want to share with you the stepped up version we made in the same workshop.
*Sneak peek at last week's card, too.

These cards with the Flowers for Every Season Suite Collection (AC pp. 10-13) have been so much fun. Hard to see in this picture the shaker created using the new Mason Jar Dome Shaker Dome and the Flowers for Every Season Gems. It is super cute! Give this card a try and share it with all of us - maybe post it to my Facebook page so we all can see it.

Reminder: I have been featuring cards using punches for the last several weeks as I know many of you have quite a collection of punches which makes it easier for you follow along with your supplies. I have given everyone the heads up that this month's online workshop (3rd Saturday of every month) will also feature the Jar of Flowers stamp set and the new 2020-22 In Colors (Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider, Just Jade, Magenta Madness, and Misty Moonlight). Misty Moonlight is still my favorite, but I am starting to really like the Cinnamon Cider! I am giving you this head's up so that you have time to order them for our class. The July Hostess Code is on the right-hand side of my blog, or if you are viewing this on your mobile device, scroll down to the business messages below for the code as well.

Easy Handmade Card Featuring Jar of Flowers Stamp Set

Hello, my crafty friends. I wanted to share this fun card using the new Jar of Flowers Stamp Set and Jar Punch (Bundle). It was one of the two cards we made last month during the  Facebook Live Virtual Workshop.
Give this super simple card a try! You could try it in a color of your choice.

Since we have been meeting virtually for the last few months, I have tried to keep project designs fairly simple in order for you to change them up with stamp sets and punches that you likely have in your collections. Hopefully, you like the project so much that you will visit my online store to buy the stamp set/bundle for your own collection!

This month's online workshop (3rd Saturday of every month) I will again be using this same stamp set - Jar of Flowers - and the new 2020-22 In Colors (Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider, Just Jade, Magenta Madness, and Misty Moonlight). I love the new Misty Moonlight!! I am giving you this head's up so that you have time to order them for our class. The July Hostess Code is on the right-hand side of my blog, or if you are viewing this on your mobile device, scroll down to the business messages below for the code.
