Stampin’ Up! A Pumpkin Patch & Wonderful Thoughts Hello Card with Video

Posted on September 2, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and happy Labor Day! If you have the day off – I hope you enjoy the day. If not…hmmm. I’m sorry! 🙁

Speaking of the holiday, though, just a reminder that I will NOT be doing a ZOOM the Craftroom today! I’m going to be out-of-pocket and…I suspect you might be, too! So…I’ll be back in the craft room with you on Thursday evening at 7pm Eastern! 🙂

Now. My card today spans…the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog (Wonderful Thoughts stamp set and Perennial Postage Dies), the Online Exclusives (Scenic Pumpkin Patch stamp set) AND the new Sept-Dec 2024 Mini Catalog (Splendid Autumn 6″ x 6″ DSP). I’m an equal-opportunity stamper! I used them all to make a super pretty card to welcome Fall! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Charming Duck & Lily Pond Hello for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on August 8, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, y’all! It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a theme challenge to work with and I’m excited to see what everyone brings to the table. I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop today!

I pulled out one of the cutest bundles and papers in the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog – rightfully identifying “duck” as fitting our theme – and made a cute little card with the Charming Duck Pond bundle and Lily Pond Lake 6″ x 6″ DSP. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Bright & Beautiful Flying By Hello Card

Posted on August 7, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and happy happy Hawwmmmp Day!! Hope you’re having a great time – saving money on beautiful papers and buying up great new kits and “spending” those Bonus Days coupons! Whoo-hoo!!

Just a scheduling note – at some point today – the Big Brown Truck will roll into my driveway with my Pre-Order from the new Sep – Dec 2024 Mini Catalog! Once I sort of make sense of it all – I’ll be going live on my YouTube channel with a sneaky peek! So…be watching for a notice – I’ll try to give you a heads up, okay!? 😎

My card today is a super cute one – using a set that I’d bet…a little money!…that you overlooked (one might even say….FLEW over?!) or…dismissed as just for kids. I respectfully request that you take a second look at the cute Flying By stamp set – and see what happens when you do a little quick fussy cutting and add some fun paper – like the Bright & Beautiful 6″ x 6″ DSP (on sale NOW!). Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Nested Winterly Tree Tops Thinking of You Sneak Peek Card with a Video

Posted on June 30, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Hey y’all – happy LAST DAY OF JUNE. No – I can’t believe it either. The year is flying by – it’s almost time for a new catalog – the new Online Exclusives drop on 3 July AND today is the LAST DAY to take advantage of the Big Bundle Sale! Be SURE to check it out – and…get your savings on! 🙂

Now…if I was a SMART demonstrator – I’d have made a card with one of the bundles on sale. To entice you to grab it. Or…I’d have made a card with a new Online Exclusive so you’d be rearing to go on the 3rd.

Did I do either of those things!?

Nope.

Instead – I yielded to requests to make another card with the new Winterly Tree Tops bundle and Nests of Winter DSP. I confess – y’all didn’t have to virtually twist my arm TOO hard. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Mediterranean Blooms Choose Happy Hello Card

Posted on June 23, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and happy Sunday! Hope your weekend is going well! I had a nice birthday yesterday – with a phone call from some friends of mine from back when I was still working with the Army. It was a really nice surprise to get to chat with them! And I had chocolate cake – WOW! – and some gelato. And since today’s the last day of Birthday Weekend…it’s back on salad and cauliflower rice tomorrow!!! LOL!

My card today uses a little set that I suspect you MAY have flown-over in the catalog. It’s called Choose Happy and it’s super cute! And it has a lot of versatile sentiments. For this one, I paired it up with the Mediterranean Blooms DSP. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Sweet & Lovely Sending Love Card

Posted on May 12, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Happy Sunday, y’all – from the U S of A! Yup – we’re home and all in one piece, if a little (aka a LOT) jet-lagged! But it was good to get home and see the place and the pony. And we’ll go get the Man in a little bit!! I can’t wait to give him a big hug!

My card today is super easy but also super pretty (a combo I like a lot – even if I don’t always accomplish it!). It features the Lovely & Sweet bundle and the Nature’s Sweetness Specialty DSP – BOTH of which carried over from the last Mini catalog into the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Hope You Know Sea Turtle Center Easel Card for the SU Demos Fun Folds Blog Hop

Posted on April 23, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good morning everyone! Welcome to this month’s Fun Folds Blog Hop for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators! We’ve got a talented line-up and…I think you’re going to like what you see! This is a once-a-month hop and…all our cards will be fun folds!! How cool is that?!?

One of my crafty team members posted a card on our team FB page a few weeks back (thanks, Darryl!) and – being an easel card AND a little different than I’d seen before – I was intrigued. I decided I’d put one together for you today – and decided it needed to be an underwater scene (I appear to be in that mode right now!). This one features the cool Reversible Sea Turtle stamp set and – my go-to for these – the Beauty of the Deep die set. For a sentiment – I pulled out the Hope You Know set. Then – I thought it would be fun to use some watery colored paper from the new Full of Life 6″ x 6″ DSP (this is new in the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog, available on 1 May). Take a look-see:

Good morning and happy Friday! Hope you’ve got something fun planned for the weekend!

My card today is…out of this world. Well – sort of! It’s a fun ocean sunset brought to you by the new Under The Moon stamp set! And – since that’s an image-only set, I pulled out the Country Flowers for two sweet sentiments. These are both from the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalog – going live on 1 May! The “out of this world” thing comes from the Stargazing DSP – which is RETIRING soon (and on sale!). OH – and it’s ALSO a fun fold! Take a look-see:
