I leaned into the theme with a Valentine’s Day card using the Valentine’s Day stamp set and some Love Notes Mix & Match DSP. Along with an additional sentiment and some stamped foliage from the Greenery Lane stamp set. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Endless Love Notes Valentine’s Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on January 8, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, y’all It’s Thursday – the FIRST one of 2026!! And that makes it time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a 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!

I got a cool card in the mail the other day, from one of my teammates. It reminded me how much I like “inchie” cards. She’d taken it up a notch, using black sqaures to make the card front look dimensional. So – I shamelessly copied the idea to make today’s Valentine’s Day card with the Endless Love stamp set and some Love Notes Mix & Match DSP. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! January 2024 Hearts for You Paper Pumpkin and a Peek at the February Kit!

Posted on January 28, 2025 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and Happy Tuesday! I hope your week has been going well so far – it’s been warmer (yeah!) and rainy (sorta yuk) here. Even being gloomy and rainy – it’s been nice to be able to have the barn open for a minute and NOT have to wear covers every time we go outside! The pony isn’t as happy….there’s really just no pleasing all of the people all of the time! 🤷‍♀️

The first Paper Pumpkin kit of 2025 – the January “Hearts for You” kit – came the other day! I’d already sold two of my three kits but I got that third one going quick as I could!

This is an All-Cards kit – and it’s ready for Valentine’s Day for sure! – with hearts galore in reds and pinks and gold foil! The cards were pretty easy to put together – with just enough stamping to make it fun! When I was done – I had nine gorgeous cards ready to send!

Happy Sunday, y’all! The rain came as promised but at least it’s warmish for a minute. Next week looks chilly – looks like it’s going to be a cold booger for the Inauguration on Monday, too! If you’re attending – I’m a little jelly! – stay warm and safe!

Stampin’ Up! Lifetime of Forever Love You Always Card

Posted on February 1, 2024 by stampsnlingers

Good afternoon, y’all – or, should i say…hello…again!? This is my second post for the day – if you’re looking for our weekly team blog hop – and the card that I posted for it – here’s the link to that post!

I was really excited to be invited to be on the Design Team for the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge – it’s one of my faves (I’m betting you knew that!). I love getting ideas for my cards and trying to get tic-tac-toe on the boards! Today is my first time with the Team!

So – for my inaugural card – I pulled out the beautiful Forever Love Specialty DSP and let it take the lead with some help from the coordinating Lifetime of Love bundle. A cool Basic White frame – from the Perennial Postage die set – set the stage for the whole card. Take a look-see:
