Stampin’ Up! Cheery Merry Little Labels for the Stamp Ink Paper #124

So – good mornin’, y’all!  It’s Tuesday – almost the last Tuesday I’ll be in Utah.  I’ll actually admit that I’ll miss it here a little – the scenery is ridiculously gorgeous – especially when there’s some weather around!  I’m betting in the middle of July it might not be so appealing to me…

I had a happy little surprise the other day – the nice folks at Stamp Ink Paper asked me to stay on as a permanent member of their Design Team!  Sending them a big Thank You!

Our Challenge #124 this week is a theme – Girl’s Night Out!

Since I don’t have a hang-around-the-house-watching-a-movie-and-making-s’mores-and-falling-asleep-at-8 stamp set, I had to channel some more adventurous friends!  So, I used the Merry Little Labels stamp set and some fun paper from the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP.  Take a look-see:

See?  It’s “girl’s” cuz of the pink.

Don’t judge – it was all I could come up with.

I’m a pretty boring person, y’all.  Sorry to have to break it to you!! 🙂

I started by Fast Fusing the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP to a Powder Pink mat for the card front.

Next, I used Glue Dots to adhere a length of Powder Pink 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon to the card front in an oh-so-artsy manner.  Over that, with some Liquid Glue, I adhered a silver Foil Snowflake.

I inked up the Merry Little Labels sentiment in Versamark and stamped it on a piece of Powder Pink card stock.  Then I sprinkled it with Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heated it with my Heat Tool.  I cut it out with a Stitched Shapes Framelits circle die and popped it over the snowflake with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a single Black Rhinestone Jewel and that was it for the card front.

On the inside, I matted a Whisper White panel on a Powder Pink mat and added a thin strip of the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP, also matted on Powder Pink, across the bottom.  I wrapped a length of the Powder Pink 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon around, securing it in the back with scotch tape.  Then I made a little “faux bow” with another short length of the ribbon.

.I Fast Fuse’d the panel to a Powder Pink mat and into my Basic Black card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got a couple of strips of Washi Tape across the front – two silver strips from the Year of Cheer Specialty Washi Tape and one black-and-white strip from the Pick A Pattern Washi.  I colored the little tiny white lines with my Powder Pink Stampin’ Write Marker…

..and I added more of the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  I’m not a big drinker, but I’m certainly a big eater!!  And if staying in with the girls and watching a movie isn’t on the agenda – then going out for a good meal surely would be!  I think the Merry Little Labels captured it pretty well – and the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP certainly looks like a good time is being had.  Hope you like!

Stampin’ Up! Christmas Quilt Card Front Builder

Mornin’, y’all!!  Happy Monday.

??

Sorry to start the week with an oxymoron!  Although this is a good week on a couple of levels – one…it’s ONSTAGE WEEK!!  Whoo-hoo!  I work tonight and tomorrow night and then it’s off to OnStage with 8 of the ladies in our team and no-telling how many other demonstrators!  We’re touring the Home Office on Wednesday then Thursday the Main Event begins!!  And – then when I get back on Sunday….that will leave just one more week till I go home!

Whooo-hooo!!  I’m really ready, y’all!

If you were able to join me last night for my Facebook Live video – thank you so much!!  If not, but you’d like to see the card we made, here’s the link to it on YouTube!

The sneak peek I showed you yesterday ended up as the start of the card we did – I finally got past my mental brain block and figured it out!  It uses the wonderful tree dies from the Card Front Builder Thinlits, a little plaid paper from the Christmas Around the World DSP and a sweet little sentiment from Christmas Quilt.  Take a look-see:

I started with a piece of Very Vanilla card stock and, with the Big Shot, cut the Card Front Builder Thinlits double and single tree shapes from near the top.  I used the same dies to cut the shapes from a piece of Christmas Around the World DSP.  Then I stuck the plaid cuts inside the negative spaces and used scotch tape on the back to secure them in place.

I ran the panel back thru the Big Shot, cutting the trees a second time.  Check the video for a tip about placement, okay?

The insides of those negative spaces are filled with Garden Green die cuts – in the same way I did the plaid trees.  Then I embossed the panel in the Softly Falling TIEF and matted the whole thing on a Real Red mat.

My sentiment, from Christmas Quilt, is stamped on a strip of Very Vanilla in Real Red.  I bannerized the end with my Paper Snips and edged it with my Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker.  It’s popped on the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals – both regular and Mini.

I cut another Christmas Around the World Card Front Builder tree, covered it with glue from my Fine-Tip Glue pen and “sugared” it with Dazzling Diamonds Stampin’ Glitter.  Then I used Liquid Glue to adhere it to another tree in Very Vanilla.  I used some Dimensionals on the back to wind a few loops of Gold Metallic Thread and, with the addition of a little Liquid Glue, added it over the sentiment.

I added a few gold stars from the Metallics Enamel Shapes and the card front was done.

On the inside, I cut another double tree with the Card Front Builder Thinlits at the bottom of a Very Vanilla panel.  I stuck in another Christmas Around the World DSP tree (using some scotch tape on the back) and then adhered a Very Vanilla die cut over the top with Liquid Glue.

I Fast Fuse’d the panel to a Real Red mat and into my Thick Very Vanilla card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Very Vanilla Medium Envelope got two more Card Front Builder trees on the front – one in plaid and one in Very Vanilla…

…and more Christmas Around the World DSP plaid on the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  For all that this one bamboozled me on Saturday night, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out!  I love love love this plaid paper and those trees in the Card Front Builder Thinlits are just the best, don’t you think!?  Don’t forget the sweet and simple sentiment courtesy of the Christmas Quilt stamp set!  Hope you like!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Video Sneak Peek

Mornin’, y’all!  Hope you remembered to set your clocks back last night when you went to bed!  I personally wish we’d just stick with daylight savings time all year long.  I hate this jumping around, don’t you?

So – you might be wondering about the relatively cryptic nature of the title of my post today?  Usually I stick a stamp name or die set or something like that in there, I know.

But…I had a card in my head when I got back from work last night.  And I spent too long trying desperately to make it work.  And it just wouldn’t.  But I refused to give up the concept, so I pulled out the Card Front Builder Thinlits.  And some Christmas Around the World plaid.

And then the creative process simply…stalled.  I had a concept, but…nothing concrete.  So…I decided to sleep on it and took a picture of what I had.  Take a look-see:

Looks promising, maybe – we’ll see what transpires when I look at it in the light of day! 🙂

I sure hope you’ll join me tonight, at 8pm Eastern, on my Stamps-N-Lingers Facebook page.  And we’ll all see what I’ve come up with by then! 🙂

Have a super Sunday – enjoy that extra hour!

TTFN

Stampin’ Up! Color Me Merry Thank You

Happy Saturday, y’all!  Hope your weekend is going well!

In my ongoing quest to show you guys how versatile the new Color Me Happy stamp set is – above and beyond even what you can do with it when you combine it with the Color Me Happy Project kit – I’ve made a quick and easy (and I ain’t just whistlin’ Dixie here, folks!!) thank you card with the stamp set and a little bit of the Merry Little Christmas DSP.  Take a look-see:

Since I’m betting your brain instantly told you how to make this card, you know how easy it is, right?

I did play along with the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge this week.  I went right down the middle!

Buckle up, buttercup – this is going to go fast!

I started with the cool black-and-white side of the Merry Little Christmas DSP and matted it on a panel of Pool Party card stock for the card front.  Then I wrapped a length of Peekaboo Peach 5/8″ Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon around the panel, securing it in the back with scotch tape.

I stamped the large and lovely sentiment from the Color Me Happy stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a piece of Whisper White card stock and cut it out with an oval die from the Stitched Shapes Framelits.  When the ink was good and dry, I used my Pumpkin Pie Light and Dark Stampin’ Blends to color the sentiment.  I used the Dark Pool Party Blend to color the little flourishes.

I cut a scalloped oval with the Ovals Layering Framelits die and matted the sentiment to it with Fast Fuse.  Then I popped it over the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I used a short little length of Metallic Thread (you can use whatever kind – you’re not going to see it!), and tied a knot around the Crinkled Seam Binding to the left of the sentiment.  That helped to make my faux-bow look a lot less faux!

I tied a bow with more of the Peekaboo Peach 5/8″ Crinkled Seam Binding and adhered it with a Glue Dot – right over the spot where I tied the Metallic Thread knot.  Then I added some Black Rhinestone Jewels to the sentiment and the card was done!

For the inside, I used the Leaf Punch to cut out a leaf (to coordinate with the front DSP) in the corner of a Whisper White panel.

I Fast Fuse’d the panel to a Pool Party mat and into my Basic Black card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done! 🙂

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got a piece of Black and White Pick a Pattern Washi Tape across the front – I colored the little dots with my Dark Pool Party Stampin’ Blend (just hard to see in the picture!)…

..and I gave the envelope a little more of the leafy Merry Little Christmas DSP.

Et Voila!  So many ways to use the Color Me Happy stamp set – dress it up or dress it down!  And – even though “Christmas” is in the name of the Merry Little Christas DSP – its got so much versatility with the color scheme (it’s Old Olive-and-white on the other side!) and the patterns that are kind of season-neutral.  Hope you like!

Stampin’ Up! Color Me Happy Watercolor Christmas

Good mornin’, y’all!  It’s Friday-Lite!  Which is a new term I just made up meaning…the calendar says it’s Friday, but the fact that I’ll be here working tomorrow, means…it really isn’t!  But – I do hope it’s a full-up Friday for all y’all and that you have some fun plans for the weekend!

Before we get going – let me make a quick plug for the Stampin’ Blends special bundles and Double Peppermint Ordering Special (for folks who order one of my bundles) going on now thru the 14th.  Folks are snapping these up – don’t miss out, okay?

For today’s card, I borrowed the pretty little flower image from the Color Me Happy stamp set (part of the Stampin’ Blends release and bundles) and added in a couple sentiments from Watercolor Christmas.  Take a look-see:


My layout comes from the challenge at Freshly Made Sketches this week.

And the colors and several elements were inspired by the photo at The Card Concept.  I’d call my card style Clean and Layered.

I started with a piece of Whisper White card stock that I embossed in the Pinewood Planks Dynamic TIEF.  I toyed with a few designs from the Wood Textures DSP but just couldn’t make any of them appeal to me with the color scheme. 🙂

I matted the panel on Cherry Cobbler as the card front.

My sentiment, from the Watercolor Christmas stamp set, is stamped in Versamark Ink on Whisper White card stock, sprinkled with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed.  Then I matted it on Cherry Cobbler and adhered it to the card front with Fast Fuse.

To make my decoration, I stamped the flower from Color Me Happy in Versamark on a piece of scrap Whisper White, sprinkled it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat set it.  Then I colored it with the Light and Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends and fussy cut it.

I stamped the detailed leaf image from the Painted Harvest stamp set in Versamark on Garden Green and heat embossed them in Gold.  Then I punched them out with my Leaf Punch.  I also cut a few extra berries with the Pretty Pines Thinlits – in Gold Foil and Whisper White.  

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the leaves and berries to the card front and popped the Color Me Happy flower on top with a couple of Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a gold Metallic Enamel Shapes dot to the middle of the flower and a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels around the sentiment.  To finish it all off, I tied a double-strand bow from Gold Metallic Thread and adhered it with a tiny dab of Liquid Glue.

On the inside, I stamped the solid leaf image from Painted Harvest in Garden Green up the side of a Whisper White panel. When it was dry, I stamped the second, detailed, leaf image over the top in Versamark and heat embossed that image in Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder.  Then I added a second sentiment from Watercolor Christmas in Cherry Cobbler, using my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to get it where it needed to be.

I Fast Fuse’d the panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat and into my Thick Whisper White card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done.

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got a repeat of the Garden Green/Gold Embossed leaves from Painted Harvest up the side…

…and I embossed the envelope flap in the Pinewood Planks Dynamic TIEF.

Et Voila!  This is such a pretty little flower from Color Me Happy – and when it’s colored with the new Stampin’ Blends (need to getcha some!), I think it notches up to gorgeous!  And I love the fonts in the beautiful Watercolor Christmas stamp set.  Hope you like!

Stampin’ Up! Musical Merry Carols for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop



Happy Thursday, y’all – and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! We’ve got a full roster playing with today’s color challenge, so be sure to check ’em all out when you get done here!  

I love this color combination!

I started with some fun paper from the Merry Little Christmas DSP, then pulled a sentiment from the Musical Season stamp set and some elements from the Carols of Christmas and Card Front Builder Thinits.  Take a look-see:

I also used the sketch-side of this week’s Fusion challenge to help me with the layout.

Finally, I played along with Jaydee’s Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge at The Paper Players.  Went down the left side.  Although…down the diagonal works, too! 😉

So – as you can see, I started with a tree-strewn piece of paper from the Merry Little Christmas DSP.  Using the fun border/frame die from the Card Front Builder Thinlits, I cut the frame and matted it on a piece of Old Olive card stock (using Fast Fuse and some Liquid Glue in the corners).

I cut a tag from a piece of Whisper White, using my Scallop Top Punch.  With the little stars image from the Carols of Christmas stamp set, I stamped stars all over the tag in Versamark Ink, sprinkled them with Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heated them up!  I edged the whole tag with my Old Olive Stampin’ Write Marker.

I ran a length of Basic Black 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon thru the top of the tag and tied it together with a piece of silver Mini Tinsel Trim.  Than I popped the whole thing onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

My sentiment, from the Musical Season stamp set, is heat embossed in Silver on a strip of Whisper White.  Then I snipped banner ends and edged it with my Old Olive Stampin’ Write Marker.  I added it with Liquid Glue and a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional under each end.

I cut two sets of trees with the die in the Card Front Builder Thinlits – one from a piece of Merry Little Christmas DSP and one from Silver Foil.  I adhered them together with Liquid Glue and then to the card front with Liquid Glue and Mini Dimensionals.

I added a silver star Metallic Enamel Shape to the top of each tree and the card front was done!

On the inside, I cut another Card Front Builder Thinlits frame from a piece of Whisper White card stock.

I Fast Fuse’d the panel (also using a little Liquid Glue in the corners) to an Old Olive mat and into my Basic Black card base, popped the card front on with  Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got more Carols of Christmas Silver heat-embossed stars on the front…I might have gone a little crazy cuz I like them – feel free to stop WAAY earlier if you want…

…and I added some more of the Merry Little Christmas DSP to the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  I hadn’t used the pretty Carols of Christmas stamp set and Card Front Builder Thinlits in a while – forgot how pretty and fun it is!  And, of course, the Musical Season sentiment is simple and simply perfect.  Hope you like!

Now that you’ve seen my project, please take a little time to visit all the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hoppers today!

The free gift is your choice of any item valued up to $10.00 from the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog or the 2017 Holiday Catalog! And – you can even select one of the Host-exclusive sets! See my Rewards page for more details.


 

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d be very happy to be your Demonstrator. Just click on the Order Stampin’ Up! Online Now button on the right side of the screen to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. Happy Stamping!
