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

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:

Stampin’ Up! Cottage Wreaths Soft Seedlings for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good morning, y’all!  It’s Thursday (AND THANKSGIVING!!) – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!  We’ve got a great sketch challenge (have I ever mentioned that sketch challenges are my fave??) 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 decided to pay homage to the day and make a card that expresses how we should all be feeling today!  And – not coincidentally – let me play with one of my favorite stamp sets of all time – the Soft Seedlings set!  And – one of my other top faves – the Cottage Wreaths bundle – played a strong supporting role.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Cottage Roses & Wreaths for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good morning, y’all!  It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!  We’ve got a sweet sketch 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 figured this would be a good day to go all-Autumn-all-the-time – our trees are going crazy in their Fall colors, so…I was inspired!  I pulled out the Cottage Rose set – to do a little white-wash technique – and the Cottage Wreaths set for the main feature.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Bewitching Cottage Wreaths Halloween with Video Tutorial

Hello hello!  It’s Sunday and I am hoping your weekend is going well.  We hit the Farmer’s Market yesterday and got some homemade soup and three chocolate dipped Almond Biscotti that I am trying HARD not to just eateateat!!  They are SO stinkin’ good!  Oh – and we bought a bag of Arugula – cuz…it IS a FARMER’S market and we tried to be at least a little healthy!

My card today is another Halloween card. I may or may not have said that I was done with Halloween cards but…if I did – I apparently…fibbed.  This one combined the Cottage Wreaths bundle (a multi-holiday set) with the Bewitching bundle (a little more…specialized!).  Take a look-see;

Stampin’ Up! Country Cottage Halloween Wreath for the Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

Good morning, y’all – welcome to another edition of the Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team blog hop!  Each month we make projects centered around a theme – and this month our theme is “Halloween Fun”!  We can interpret that any way we want – so…be sure to check and see everyone’s projects – we’ve got a bunch of talented ladies hopping with us this month!

I thought a nice spooky (not really!) wreath – with a spider and everything! – would be great for Halloween.  So…out came the Cottage Wreaths bundle – with the fun Country Wreaths dies.  And – the Black & White Designs DSP seemed like a pretty good way to get it started.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Country Cottage Wreaths CAS Thank You Card

Good morning and welcome back to the work week.  And – the FIRST DAY of AUGUST!  What in the world?!?  How is it possible that the year is going so fast?  AND Sale-A-Bration?  Yep – we’re already half-way thru!  Yikes!

I saw a cool sketch at the Freshly Made Sketches challenge and my brain informed me that the right way to go was with the Cottage Wreaths bundle.  So…I did!  Take a look-see:

Stampin' Up! Country Cottage Wreaths CAS Thank You Card

And here’s the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

And I used the color palette from the Color Throwdown challenge this week.

I started by embossing a Crumb Cake panel in the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and then I adhered it to the front of my Crumb Cake card base with Liquid Glue.

I cut three Very Vanilla squares using the next-to-largest Stylish Shapes die.

Stampin' Up! Country Cottage Wreaths CAS Thank You Card

On a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, I stamped the wreath from the Cottage Wreaths set three times in Balmy Blue.  I stamped each wreath with the twig image in Crumb Cake – and cut them all out with the coordinating die in the Country Wreaths die set.

I adhered the three die cut wreaths to the three Very Vanilla squares with Liquid Glue.

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the top and bottom wreaths to the card front.

I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop the middle wreath on.

I used the little leaves dies – there are four of them! – in Country Wreaths to cut out four Balmy Blue leaves and then adhered them to the bottom corner of the middle wreath with Liquid Glue.

I tied a simple bow with two lengths of Very Vanilla Baker’s Twine and adhered it with a Glue Dot.

On a piece of Very Vanilla, I stamped the Cottage Wreaths sentiment in Balmy Blue and cut it out with the smallest little banner die from Stylish Shapes.

Stampin' Up! Country Cottage Wreaths CAS Thank You Card

I used double-stacked Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment over the bow, added a few Very Vanilla dots from the Classic Matte Dots pack – and the card front was done!

On the inside, I stamped the Cottage Wreaths wreath in stamped-off-once Balmy Blue in the middle of a Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the sentiment in the center in full-strength Balmy Blue – and added another Very Vanilla Classic Matte Dot.

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Balmy Blue mat and into the Crumb Cake card base and the card was done!

My Very Vanilla Medium Envelope got the wreath – and a sentiment! – in Balmy Blue on the front…

…and I used the little leaves stamp from Cottage Wreaths to stamp all over the envelope flap in Balmy Blue!

Et Voila!  I love the Cottage Wreath Bundle – the stamped images are gorgeous and the coordinating Country Wreaths dies make it so easy to cut them out – as well as other foliage for your projects!  And – what do you think of it in soft blues and creams!?  I sort of love it!

Finn Fan Fix 

We’re now officially Ooni Pizza Oven Snobs!

Oh my goodness, y’all!  We really liked our pizzas BEFORE – in the oven in the kitchen.

They took forever, though – even at 500F!

But NOW?!?  WOW!  This Ooni Karu is….AMAZEBALLS!

The men put it together yesterday morning…

Then we did the 30 min seasoning at full temp!

I put dough on in the morning and…we fired it up for dinner!

Pizza #1 – Ready to launch!

It was so cool to watch!  I even took a video – and yes, I sound like a goofus.  But….

And the results?!?

Perfection!  Crisp on the outside, soft on the inside.  Perfect!

They were SOOO much better than the ones from the oven – I didn’t think it would be THAT much different but…it sure is!

Only one problem that I could see.

I wanted to eat ALL of BOTH pizzas.

I didn’t.

But – I WANTED to for sure!!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Cottage Wreaths Side Fold Card with Video Tutorial

Good morning good morning!  It’s the day after the 4th and I hope you and your critters had a fun and non-scary evening!  We spent the day getting provisions for the girls – well, putting provisions on a Rain Check!! – and buying a few garden fence panels to take care of a little problem we have at the fountain by the barn.  And two more perennials (WAYNE’S idea – not mine!!).  So…a good quiet day!

I’ve got one of my VERY favorite fun folds for you today – the venerable side-fold.  It doesn’t have an extra easel.  It’s not an upside down and sideways book card with a twist.  Just a good, solid side-fold card!  And – it really lets the new Cottage Wreaths bundle and coordinating Gingham Cottage DSP shine.  Take a look-see:
