Stampin’ Up! Poetic Enduring Beauty on Embossed Brick Card with Video Tutorial

Posted on January 28, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good morning! Happy Half-Weekend. Hope it’s going well for you – we’ve been…soggy. It’s rained off and on (more ON than OFF!) for the last three days. And it’s JUST warm enough to not need a lot of jacket but just COOL enough to need something. Put the hoody on – take the hoody off – put the hoody on….sheesh!

To be clear – I’ll take this all day long over 13 degrees!! 🥶

My card today uses all the pieces and parts of the stunning Enduring Beauty bundle – the stamps – the dies – and the amazing builder masks! With the addition of some Poetic Expressions DSP and Exposed Brick 3D Embossing – it made for a beautiful card. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Rock & Roll Rock Star Joy Fold Card with Video Tutorial

Posted on January 19, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and Happy Friday! I hope y’all are staying warm and have warm plans for the weekend! Finny and I are staying close to home, I think. HE might (definitely!!) want to go somewhere but…it’s too stinkin’ cold for ME to want to go, so…since I’m his driver…🤷‍♀️😂

My card today is a super easy fun fold – it’s called a Joy Fold and it’s really great for showing off beautiful – or fun! – DSP. Like…for example, the Rock & Roll DSP on this one! And I added a few fun elements from the coordinating Rock Star bundle. And…lightning bolts! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Bunches of Sweet Thoughts Hello Card

Posted on January 17, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Morning, all – and Happy Happy Hawwwmp Day! It’s colder than a well-digger’s lunch bucket here – it was….it was 7 with the wind chill last night. Yuk. I shut the barn all the way down – although I did leave a couple doors up a bit so our kitty-visitor could come in and eat – and maybe find a spot to cuddle down. If only he knew how much cozier it is in the house…maybe he’d let me catch him up and “convert” him to an an inside kitty.

So far…that has not come even close to working! So – food. Water. Access to the barn. ‘Bout all I can do! 🤷‍♀️

My card today is the…wait for it…POLAR opposite of the weather. Bwahahaha! It’s Spring-y and bright – all thanks to the Sweet Thoughts Memories & More Card Pack and coordinating Cards & Envelopes. I also grabbed a little sentiment from the Blueberry Bunches stamp set. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! CAS Wild Ferns and Perennial Lavender Thank You Card

Posted on January 15, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and Happy Martin Luther King day. Is it a holiday for you? Seems sorta hit or miss – but I do know I can’t cash a check today and won’t be getting any mail. Which is not to say that we won’t walk to the box a time or two – the Man just doesn’t “get” the concept of mail holidays! Walks are walks are walks. 🤷‍♀️

My card today is a clean and simple one – I know, it’s hard to believe. I was shocked, too! It features the new Wild Ferns stamp set and dies, some tone-on-tone texture from the new Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder and some strips of gorgeous Painted Lavender DSP. Take a look-see:
