Stampin’ Up! Welcoming Woods Sneak Peek for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on July 15, 2021 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 got a new stamp set in my pre-order (well, THAT’S the Department of Redundancy Department, right?) that has been sort of burning a hole in my stamp shelf. So when I saw the theme for our challenge – it was a no brainer! I pulled out the brand new – coming on 3 Aug in the Jul – Dec 2021 Mini Catalog! – Welcoming Woods stamp set. And I paired it up with some Beauty of the Earth DSP (which just so happens to be on sale right now with a 15% savings!). Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Wild Cats, Big Cats Birthday

Posted on June 2, 2021 by stampsnlingers

Happy Happy Hawwwmp Day, y’all! Hope your week is going well! We’re getting back in the swing – even sort of getting onto the sleep cycle that befits our location (versus Island-time!). I’ve even gotten on the treadmill two mornings in a row – today is Day 3! Yeah me!

I hope you’re all taking advantage of the Last Chance Sale – remember that’s all WHILE SUPPLIES LAST. So…like when you see something at Costco – don’t think “we’ll get it next time” cuz….might not be there when you get back! 😉

My card today is a little on the wild side. Wild Cats, that is! And I paired this “wild” set with the bundled Big Cats Dies, cool In the WIld DSP and the Animal Print Embossing Folder – to have a little creative fun! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Celebrate With Flowers Artistically Inked Birthday Card

Posted on May 21, 2021 by stampsnlingers

Good morning from Maui! I can hardly believe it’s Friday already! 🙁 But today we’re headed out bright and early to go snorkeling at Molokini! I am excited – and yes, a little nervous. Wayne and I did a Snorkeling demo the other day in the hotel pool, just so I’d be at least a little familiar with the equipment and the how-to. I think I sort of got it – but…guess we’ll see this morning! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ We ALSO did a SCUBA demo. WAYNE loved it – and he and Lance did a longer dive class – out in the ocean! – on Thursday and are going to dive with the turtles on Saturday.

Me? Nope. SCUBA not for this girl. I’ll stick to paddling on the surface, thank you very much! 😉

My card today is totally non-aquatic! I used the fun Celebrate with Flowers stamp set – with its vertical Happy Birthday sentiment – and the pretty Expressions in Ink Specialty DSP and Ephemera Pack. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Dual Panel Birthday

Posted on May 15, 2021 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, y’all – it’s THE DAY! When this posts, we’ll be arriving at the airport (in theory – assuming I can get my buhonkus outta bed when I need to to be ready to roll). As I type this – at 10pm on Friday evening – I’m mentally cutting out stuff to do in the morning. Like – the treadmill. I suspect that in the course of this day I’ll get plenty of exercise.

Work with me here. It could happen! 😉

My card today features one of my favorite flowers – pansies!! Which means, of course, that I’ve used the new and wunnermus Pansy Patch bundle with the stunning Pansy Petals DSP to make a pretty birthday card. Take a look-see:
