World of Good

I hope you are all well and safe!  We all need a World of Good right now.  This was one of my first purchases from the new Stampin' Up! 2020-21 Annual catalog.  I love a good masculine card.  I know I'm one of the few.  This designer series paper is gorgeous!  I used that with the Memories & More pack from this suite and created this card.  The sentiment is from the Tasteful Labels dies.  The Old World embossing folder is amazing too!!

Pumpkins and Whales

Thought I'd share -- I made these cards below with pieces from the July Paper Pumpkin kit.  The background is a postcard from the kit.  I decided to pair the whale from Whale of a Time Suite.  I cut the larger whales out with the punch and dsp, and the smaller one was fussy cut.  The sentiment was heat embossed with Versamark and Stampin' White Embossing Powder.  I finished it off by adding some of the Elegant Faceted Gems.  I thought this would make a cute baby card!  

A tip for you -- when cutting the whales out from the dsp, keep the ones on the edge.  They can be tucked behind another whale (the dark gray one in the back was missing a fin!).  Below, the snout is cut off, but I tucked it behind the other whale in the second picture.

Then I decided the turtle would look cute on the background too.  I stamped some seaweed, fish and the turtle.  The sentiment was stamped in Versamark with white embossing powder on Just Jade cardstock, and cut with a die from Hippo and Friends.

Let me know what you think.  I love reading your comments!

Coordination Products

Stampin' Up! came out with some amazing coordination products.  These items work with products from the Sale-a-bration Catalog.   When you spend $50 in any catalog, you will earn a Level 1 product for every $50 in product from the Sale-a-bration catalog.  They both end on March 31.  Don't miss out!  Also, use my Host Code by March 31 and receive a free package of embellishments from me!   Host Code:  7B24TGGS

Here are a few cards I made with the adorable Pleased As Punch dsp in the coordination release.  This paper coordinates with the Tulip Builder, Umbrella Builder, Small Bloom and Heart Punch Pack punches.  You simply punch the dsp with the coordinating punch!  Don't throw out the partial umbrellas!  They are just as cute cut off! The stamp set is Under My Umbrella (see below).  Order the stamp set and punch bundle and save 10%!

You have to cut around the umbrellas a bit to be able to punch them all.  When you do, do not get rid of the ones on the edge.  I've used them in the second and third samples below.

I hope that you are healthy and safe!  Let me know if I can answer any questions.

Lily Pads and pretty paper

Have you seen the amazing Lily Pad stamps, dies and dsp?  The stamp set and dsp are free with a $50 purchase (each) in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  The dies are a level 2 item (free with $100 purchase).  The dsp is so gorgeous, you could stamp a sentiment, pop it on the dsp and be done!  

Here are two cards I made with the bundle.  On the first, I used Lovely Lipstick card stock and Stampin' Blends (I combined Lovely Lipstick light and dark and added Flirty Flamingo to the edges).  The piece below the sentiment is Flirty Flamingo.  I used a sentiment and die from the So Sentimental Bundle.

The card below was using Petal Pink.  The sentiment was from Peaceful Moments and the die is from the Stitched Label dies.  I stamped the lilies in Petal Pink and then colored in lightly with Petal Pink Stampin' Blends.  I know you're not supposed to be able to color with Stampin' Up! Ink, but it works!  Please let me know if I can answer any questions.

Poppies & Pretty Paper

I have used this gorgeous Peaceful Poppies paper a LOT!  It's so easy to make a card with it since the dsp does all of the work!  Here are a few samples:

There is a beautiful suite and bundle that includes this dsp.  You can buy as little or as much as you'd like.  Check it out here:

Happy Valentine's Day!

When I first saw this suite, I wondered what I could use it for.  I loved it, but really had to think about it.  Since I got it in, I've been using it for thank yous, Valentines, etc.  It's amazing!  The dsp is gorgeous and I love what you can do with the Eiffel Tower.  Here are a few examples I've created.

First I want to show you why you should NOT leave your ink pads open on your desk.  Ooooops!

I love how the dsp has the silvery tower which looks great with the tower I cut with a silver sheet.

I changed the pattern of dsp and added a white sentiment banner on this one and embellished with Champagne Rhinestones.

This Eiffel Tower was stamped and cut with the outline die.  It gives it a different look.  I had this option for those not wanting to glue the intricate silver tower above.  We used the sequins on this one.

I decided to add a doily from the From My Heart suite and tuck it behind the tower.  This one is for my husband.

Thanks for stopping by!  Please let me know which card you like best. I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day!

You can shop for these products in my store 24/7.  Don't forget, I am having a giveaway of this lovely tulip set.  If you place an order of $50 or more, you will be entered to win.
