Posted on December 21, 2020 by stampsnlingers

Mornin’, y’all! It’s Christmas week! Four days left! If you’re panicking over last-minute gift ideas – give me a shout! I can hook you up with a Stampin’ Up! Gift Certificate – that I’ll e-mail right to you to print out! Quick – easy – and no postage or shipping delays! 🙂

My card today has nothing to do with Christmas – except for being a birthday card.

Think about it.

There – you got it! 🙂

I used a super cool new sentiment-only stamp set called Happy Thoughts – which will be available to y’all on 5 Jan in the new Jan – Jun 2021 Mini Catalog. I also used a couple of free (with qualifying purchase) products from the 2021 Sale-A-Bration Flyer: A Touch of Ink stamp set and Paper Blooms DSP. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Pines and For Unto Us CAS Christmas Cards

Posted on December 2, 2020 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, all – and Happy Happy HAWWWMP Day! The week is flying by, isn’t it? I had to look at my watch when I started this post last night to see what day it was. I was shocked to realize it was already Tuesday. Yikes!

I’ve been getting some queries about ideas for easy to make Christmas cards – that are suitable for making multiples! I made one a couple weeks back using the Curvy Christmas stamp set – you can see it here. But – it got me to thinking, so I decided to do a riff on that one – with one of my favorite stamp sets – the Peaceful Boughs set. I added a sentiment for the inside from For Unto Us and went back to the gorgeous Gold Cards & Envelopes, just like the first card. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Wishes & Wonder of the Season Memories & More Christmas Cards and a Special Offer!

Posted on October 27, 2020 by stampsnlingers

Good morning. I have a fun something-new for you today!! You have to read on to find out what it is! 😉

First, though – I have a number for you:

52.

Do you know what that number represents?

How about if I said….7 weeks and 3 days?

No? How about…that’s the USPS Deadline (18 Dec) – for mailing in the CONUS (ie: the US – but not to/from Hawaii/Alaska) for First Class mail to “guarantee” arrival by Christmas.

Which means – you might have just started to hyperventilate a smidge when you think about getting your Christmas cards done and in the mail!

Well – I’ve got a bit of a stress-reducing solution for you today! And a chance to spend a few hours crafting with me! Read on!

The Wonder of the Season Memories & More Card Pack – coupled with the Wonder of the Season Memories & More Cards & Envelopes – are the answer! I used them – and a couple of sentiments and images from the Wishes & Wonder and Cherish the Season stamp sets to whip out a stack of gorgeous Christmas cards. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Plaid Press On In Good Taste!

Posted on October 26, 2020 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and welcome back to the week! Did y’all have a good weekend? We enjoyed ours – no more riding for us due to the wet and sloggy mud from Saturday’s rain. Hoping to get back out there a couple times this week!

I made a quick and easy card for you today. Now – there IS a little fussy cutting but it’s so worth it. And not all that hard. I used the fun Press On stamp set – for all us coffee lovers! – and TWO designer papers (BOTH of which are on SALE right now: The In Good Taste DSP and Plaid Tidings DSP. Two of my faves! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Festive Corners in the Pines for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on October 15, 2020 by stampsnlingers

Hey y’all – it’s Thursday, so it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!! Today’s a sketch challenge – 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!

As I started to work on this sketch – my brain saw some some plaid. Duh, Mare… and…the Festive Corners stamp set. As I worked thru building the card – my plan to put one of the vertical sentiments from Festive Corners in the middle of the oval sort of fell thru. But – it was an easy fix – I added pines from the In The Pines stamp set (even better!). Take a look-see:

Well – it’s happened again, y’all! Another week has gone by in a blink! Yikes! I realized today that there’s like…two months until Christmas. Okay – a little over that but…you know what I’m saying!
