Posted on July 23, 2026 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 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 challenge had me pulling open the cabinet drawer with the Velvet Meadow Specialty DSP so…I just went on with it and used the coordinating Flowering Meadow bundle, too! I used them all to make a pretty thank you card. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Delicate Sunflower Phrases & Frames Sympathy Card

Posted on July 21, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Happy Tuesday, y’all! Big day for us demonstrators – we get to pre-order from the Sept-Dec 2026 Catalog AND the September 2026 Online Exclusives! This is a HUGE perk of being a demonstrator AND…it can be taken advantage of by folks JOINING right now, too! If you think that would be fun (it would!) give me a shout and we can chat!

Today’s card is one I wish I hadn’t needed. But – I did, so…I decided if I have to send a sympathy card – it needs to be pretty. I pulled out the Phrases & Frames bundle and two more of my faves – the Delicate Whispers bundle and the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder – and made one that filled the bill. Take a look-see:

Happy Friday, y’all! Have you had a good week? We’ve done okay – it’s been busy so…looking forward to a quieter weekend. I’d hope for cooler, too – but…I feel like that’s a waste of hoping! I do hope that wherever YOU are you’re not flooding or breathing in a ton of smoke! 🙁

Today’s card is a fun fold – it’s a fun and easy fold called a Tri-Fold Window card. I used Violet Dreams DSP (it was on my desk from the last card I made) and the Framed Violets stamp set to decorate it! Take a look-see:
