Stampin’ Up! SeaSide Spray Frosted Foliage from Stamptember!

It’s HAAAWWWWMMMP Day!  Again!  Peeps – the days just be flying by.  Before you know it it’ll be Halloween – then Thanksgiving – then…CHRISTMAS.

YIKES!

So – it’s time to start thinking about spooky cards, thankful cards and Christmas cards!!

Last weekend, at Stamptember, we made a few cards that would fit into these categories pretty nicely.  I’ll share a couple more with you – including today’s beauty from the Frosted Foliage stamp set and Feels Like Frost Specialty 6″ x 6″ DSP.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Feels Like a Frosty Snow Front

Good Monday, y’all!  Sorry if “Good Monday” is still an oxymoron for you! 😉

My card today is a frosty one – using the gorgeous and wunnermus Feels Like Frost Specialty DSP and the Snow Front stamp set.  With an assist from the Memories of Home set for some sentiments!  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Cheery Merry Little Labels for the Stamp Ink Paper #124

So – good mornin’, y’all!  It’s Tuesday – almost the last Tuesday I’ll be in Utah.  I’ll actually admit that I’ll miss it here a little – the scenery is ridiculously gorgeous – especially when there’s some weather around!  I’m betting in the middle of July it might not be so appealing to me…

I had a happy little surprise the other day – the nice folks at Stamp Ink Paper asked me to stay on as a permanent member of their Design Team!  Sending them a big Thank You!

Our Challenge #124 this week is a theme – Girl’s Night Out!

Since I don’t have a hang-around-the-house-watching-a-movie-and-making-s’mores-and-falling-asleep-at-8 stamp set, I had to channel some more adventurous friends!  So, I used the Merry Little Labels stamp set and some fun paper from the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP.  Take a look-see:

See?  It’s “girl’s” cuz of the pink.

Don’t judge – it was all I could come up with.

I’m a pretty boring person, y’all.  Sorry to have to break it to you!! 🙂

I started by Fast Fusing the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP to a Powder Pink mat for the card front.

Next, I used Glue Dots to adhere a length of Powder Pink 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon to the card front in an oh-so-artsy manner.  Over that, with some Liquid Glue, I adhered a silver Foil Snowflake.

I inked up the Merry Little Labels sentiment in Versamark and stamped it on a piece of Powder Pink card stock.  Then I sprinkled it with Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heated it with my Heat Tool.  I cut it out with a Stitched Shapes Framelits circle die and popped it over the snowflake with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a single Black Rhinestone Jewel and that was it for the card front.

On the inside, I matted a Whisper White panel on a Powder Pink mat and added a thin strip of the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP, also matted on Powder Pink, across the bottom.  I wrapped a length of the Powder Pink 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon around, securing it in the back with scotch tape.  Then I made a little “faux bow” with another short length of the ribbon.

.I Fast Fuse’d the panel to a Powder Pink mat and into my Basic Black card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got a couple of strips of Washi Tape across the front – two silver strips from the Year of Cheer Specialty Washi Tape and one black-and-white strip from the Pick A Pattern Washi.  I colored the little tiny white lines with my Powder Pink Stampin’ Write Marker…

..and I added more of the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  I’m not a big drinker, but I’m certainly a big eater!!  And if staying in with the girls and watching a movie isn’t on the agenda – then going out for a good meal surely would be!  I think the Merry Little Labels captured it pretty well – and the Year of Cheer Specialty DSP certainly looks like a good time is being had.  Hope you like!

Finn-Fan Fix  

After a few days of rain – and a quick switch back to closed doors and air conditioning – Saturday dawned as one of those perfect almost-Fall-in Georgia days.

Humidity down.

Temperature down.

Wayne put on a hoody!

And we opened the doors and windows again.

Everybody likes to sit and smell the fresh air, watch the birds and squirrels and chippies.

Handsome dude, isn’t he?? 🙂

Stampin’ Up! Seasonal, Swirly, Sparkly Snowflakes

Happy Saturday-of-a-long-weekend, y’all!  Hope you’re fixin’ to do something fun!  We’re going to run some errands today – Finny’ll be in his kennel 🙁 – and then we’ll make it up to him on Monday!  We’re going over to Scout’s house.  I hear she’s BBQing!

No.  That’s silly – she has no thumbs.

My card today uses a couple of goodies in the Holiday Catalog – the Snowflake Sentiments and Season to Sparkle stamp sets, plus a few dies from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits – to make a pretty clean-and-simple holiday card.  Take a look-see:

Seasonal, Swirly Sparkly Snowflakes - Stamps-N-Lingers 4

The layout was inspired by this week’s sketch at the Stamp, Ink, Paper challenge.

Screen Shot 2017-09-01 at 19.41.48

I had such a good time making my Crumb Cake and Whisper White card the other day, that I decided to go monochromatic again.

First off, I cut a panel of Whisper White card stock and embossed it in the new Winter Wonder TIEF and Fast Fuse’d it to a Fresh Fig mat.

Seasonal, Swirly Sparkly Snowflakes - Stamps-N-Lingers 1

Using the three snowflake dies in the Seasonal Layers Thinlits, I cut three snowflakes from Dazzling Diamonds and Silver Glimmer Paper.  I used Liquid Glue to add the Dazzling Diamonds snowflakes to the card front.

Next, I wrapped a piece of Fresh Fig 1/2″ Finely Woven Ribbon around the panel, securing it in the back with scotch tape.

Seasonal, Swirly Sparkly Snowflakes - Stamps-N-Lingers 3

The sentiment, from Season to Sparkle, is heat embossed in White Stampin’ Emboss Powder on a strip of Fresh Fig.  I snipped a banner end and then used my Handheld Stapler to adhere it to a bannerized strip of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper.

I adhered the sentiment to the card front with Liquid Glue, added one of the Silver Glimmer Paper snowflakes and the card front was done.

Seasonal, Swirly Sparkly Snowflakes - Stamps-N-Lingers 2

On the inside, I stamped a second sentiment from Season to Sparkle in Fresh Fig on a Whisper White panel.  Then I added the other two Silver Glimmer Paper snowflakes with Liquid Glue, snipping the excess off the larger flake.

Seasonal, Swirly Sparkly Snowflakes - Stamps-N-Lingers 5

I Fast Fuse’d the panel to a Fresh Fig mat and into my Thick Whisper White card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done.

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got a few Snowflake Sentiments snowflakes heat embossed in Silver on the front…

Seasonal, Swirly Sparkly Snowflakes - Stamps-N-Lingers 6

…and on the envelope flap.

Seasonal, Swirly Sparkly Snowflakes - Stamps-N-Lingers 7

Et Voila!  Clean.  Simple.  And yet…a little bit sparkly!  Love this new Winter Wonder TIEF, don’t you?  And the snowflakes from Seasonal Layers Thinlits are gorgeous – especially in the Glimmer Papers.  The Season to Sparkle stamp set is filled with season-crossing sentiments – and wait until I show you something made with the matching Chandelier Thinlits!!  Hope you like!

Finn-Fan Fix  

Y’all know that Mr. Finn’s had some “knots in the floss”, if you will.  

Actually – if you will or won’t.  He’s had knots.  In his fur!

I’ve finally just about gotten them gone.

Not by finger picking thru each tiny knot.  No – there were approximately 2,347,432 of them.  And his patience with finger-picking was slim.

So…I bought a pair of thinning scissors for puppy fur.

And I wasn’t afraid to use them!!

The result?  Direct your attention to the area just below the wiggler.  All the way to the ground.  See the difference?

IMG_9658

Yes, he’s more…streamlined!  And – he doesn’t pick up quite as much…stuff (at least not in his fur!!) as he used to carry around.

I kinda like the look – makes him look like he’s ready to work.

Should I do the front feathers, too?
