Stampin’ Up! So Sincere Magical Winter Meadow for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on November 30, 2023 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!

For our theme today, the Winter Meadow DSP (thankfully carrying over!!) seemed like the perfect starting point! I pulled out the So Sincere set for its cool sentiments. Then – needing some foliage (hello??) – I reached back to the (soon-to-be-retired! 😔) Magical Meadow bundle! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Alphabet Perennial Painted Lavender Sneak Peek Thank You

Posted on November 22, 2023 by stampsnlingers

Hey guys! Happy Thanksgiving-eve! Are you doing all the cooking and prepping today? I’m getting BOTH my pressure cookers fired up for potatoes, making pimento cheese and deviled eggs and a pumpkin dessert. And Brussels Sprouts – using a recipe we had at our retreat (they’re so yummy that people who said – “I HATE brussels sprouts” went back for seconds!!). So – busy day!

Since I promised that our Thursday videos would showcase a new pretty from the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog…but we’re not DOING a video tomorrow – I decided to give you a sneaky look TODAY! And – I even did a short video, too!

For this one – we’re looking at the Painted Lavender Suite – the Painted Lavender stamp set and Perennial Postage bundle (one of my favoritest new things!). And the Painted Lavender DSP is…simply…stunning! Oh – and I used the Alphabet A La Mode dies from the 2023-24 Annual Catalog, too! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Cottage Wreaths Swing Card Thanks with Video Tutorial

Posted on November 10, 2023 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and happy Friday! Yep – it’s the cusp of the weekend again! Hope you’ve got something fun planned. I’ll be spending part of tomorrow at our Stampin’ Up! OnStage @Home Event! Yeah! And…I get a sneaky peek at the new Jan – April 2024 Mini and Jan-Feb 2024 Sale-a-Bration Catalogs! Whoo-hoo! I can’t share what I see yet but…I WILL get to Pre-Pre-Order so you MIGHT start to see some projects using new goodies in the next couple of weeks! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

My card today is another fun fold – I’ve seen it called a Swing card but…🤷‍♀️. I got the idea from one of the cards we made at our retreat last week – my teammie Susan Kuenzel brought it for us to play with. Mine isn’t a Christmas card like hers was – instead I went with a Fall theme – using the Cottage Wreaths stamp set and coordinating Country Wreaths dies. And…some pretty Meandering Meadows DSP from the Online Exclusives. Take a look-see:

Good morning from the Crafty Elk Lodge in north GA – where it is COLD outside!! 🥶 It’s Day 2 of our Krew Retreat – and it’s everything we’d been anxiously looking forward to all these months! We’re eating – and we’re crafting. And laughing. And – did I mention eating? James is treating us very well, as usual! Wish y’all could be here with us!

Now my card today is a harbinger of Fall! I know – Fall’s been here a minute but…I liked how that sounded, okay? 🤷‍♀️ It’s got a pretty Fruitful Blessings die cut acorn plus a few pumpkins from the All About Autumn DSP. And, one of my faves – a little Timeworn Type 3D Embossing! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Magical Cheers to the Season Thanks for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on October 19, 2023 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 beutiful color 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!

Our color palette – plus some ideas from a second design challenge I wanted to play with – led me to the pretty foliage in the Magical Meadow bundle and a little Lost Lagoon Tartan Specialty DSP. But..I needed a Thank You sentiment. There’s not such a sentiment in the Magical Meadow set…. Hmmm. What to do?? Well – how about the Cheers to the Season set? Perfect! Take a look-see:
