Stampin’ Up! White Christmas for Super Simple (and Single Stamp set!) Saturday

Posted on December 19, 2015 by stampsnlingers

Hello WEEKEND! And – more importantly for me (and it’s all about me, remember!) – it’s the day before I go home! Whoo-hoo! We got done a little early, so yesterday was just getting ready to get gone – and today I’m headed out to leave tomorrow. I’m so excited….and I just can’t hide it….(please hum that when you read it. Yes, go back and hum the song. You know the one!) 🙂

I used White Christmas – and only White Christmas! – for my share today. It’s on a Whisper White Note Card – so you don’t even have to cut card stock and score it to fold. Easy Peasy is what I’m getting at. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Lovely as a Tree Brings Peace

Posted on December 18, 2015 by stampsnlingers

It’s Friday. Finally. Following a week made up primarily of Mondays (okay, Tuesday was pretty good, but the rest of the week….there’s been knots in the floss for sure). I’m very much counting on this being the last weekday post from Arizona! Please keep your fingers crossed for me! 😉

Thanks for stopping by yesterday – hope that you enjoyed our Black/White/Gold creations. Next Hop will be on Christmas Eve!

Today’s share uses Lovely as a Tree – one of our oldest (and most beloved?) stamp sets. When I get sad that Wonderland (2015 Holiday Catalog – and retiring soon!) is going away, I pull Lovely as a Tree out and remind myself of its beautiful images – including one of my very favorites. It’s a wonderful little pine cone on its bough. And I just love it. So, I combined all that with a sentiment from Peaceful Wreath (also retiring on 4 Jan 16), and this is what I came up with. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! All Ye Faithful and Every Blessing for the Happy Stampers Blog Hop

Posted on December 17, 2015 by stampsnlingers

Well, it’s Thursday again – and you know what that means….it’s Happy Stampers Team Blog Hop day, of course! Once again, the ladies-who-hop have gathered together (sort of virtually….) to bring you some creative projects for your crafty pleasure. I hope that you’ll enjoy what I have to share and then head to everyone’s blog and see what they brought to the party!

Our challenge this week was to use Basic Black, Gold, and Whisper White.

Easy peasy. Right? Well….yea. Sure ’nuff. Unless, of course, you go to your stash and discover….not a piece….not even a sliver!…of Gold Foil! I mean – Not. A. Bit.

Dang it.

What to do?

I thought about begging for a pass – maybe permission to use Silver – which I have in abundance.

But then I thought – come on, Mare (that’s what I call myself when talking to myself!)…..get a little outside the box, for cryin’ out loud. There’s nothing says you have to mat in Gold Foil.

So – I didn’t. I pulled out All Ye Faithful. I gathered up Every Blessing. And some Vellum. And Basic Black card stock. And my Versamark ink and Gold Stampin’ Powder. And this is what I came up with. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Sassy Happy Birthday Bow-Tie

Posted on December 16, 2015 by stampsnlingers

Good morning! Hope your last week before Christmas is going well – getting all your shopping and wrapping and house cleaning and stocking-stuffer-buying and guest-readying and tree-trimming done! I’m almost done here – just mailed two boxes of SU! stuff (the heavy things – paper, punches, ink pads, TIEFs and Thinlits-on-magnetic-cards) home to Atlanta. Just a few more days until I’m homeward bound! 🙂

Today’s share is a birthday card – with a masculine bent. I pulled out Sassy Salutations (which remains one of my very favorite sentiment sets!) and the ever-fun Bow-Builder Punch. Add to that a few cool textures from Timeless Textures – which will be available on 5 Jan with the 2016 Occasions Catalog. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Deer Wonderland!

Posted on December 14, 2015 by stampsnlingers

Today’s share is a card that we all need right now – with Christmas fast approaching, and Monday work – something quick and easy! If you’ve got Wonderland and Sassy Salutations (or any other Christmas sentiment set), you can probably knock out a stack of 10 of these in about 20 minutes. Maybe less! Take a look-see:

I’d seen this uber-cute design on Pinterest, and thought – “Self, that’s just too cute – and what a great way to use that sort of odd antler stamp in the Wonderland stamp set!” But, what I saw was a single layer card – and those kind of terrify me. Especially when they’re on a white card. For me, that’s like a brand new t-shirt. Just point where you’d like me to drop something (or, to bring it back to cards – where would you like me to fat finger a smudge!!?). And, I just kind of like layers. 😉

Stampin’ Up! Another Sneak Peek at Love Blossoms Bloomin’ Love!

Posted on December 13, 2015 by stampsnlingers

Hey y’all! Happy Sunday. Do you know what this is? This is the official start of the countdown – not to Christmas (although that’s just a stone’s throw away!), but to me going HOME!!! Whoooooo-hoooooo!!! Yep – seven days from today I’ll be winging my way back to Atlanta – to start dealing with the impending Christmas rush! So – some time between today and Saturday (when I head over to San Diego for my flight out on Sunday) I have to pack up all my stuff. Get the Big Shot nestled in the suitcase (wish I had a second one of them, but….I don’t, so this one’s going to get some frequent flyer miles in the next couple of months!). Probably mail a box home. And, it means I need to get way ahead in cards, too!

My Seven-Days-Before-Flying-Home card share is another sneak peek at the beautiful Bloomin’ Love stamp Set. And I also used a little of the matching Love Blossoms DSP Stack! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Wisteria Wonderland Sends Peace at Christmas

Posted on December 10, 2015 by stampsnlingers

Here we are – 15 days till Christmas (just a little public service announcement!) and the Happy Stamper Ladies-Who-Hop are bringing you another wonderful assortment of card crafting goodness! And – if that number didn’t make it all really real – then consider that, after today, there’s one more Happy Stamper Hop. And then the one after that will be ON Christmas. Real enough for ya?? I’m just sayin’ that Christmas is like..tomorrow! Yikes! 🙂 But – for today, take a moment, get a cuppa something warm and cozy and enjoy all of our creations! You’ll find links to everyone’s posts down the way a piece.

Today was a sketch challenge, and I chose to go Christmas-y, using one of my favorite stamp sets in the Holiday Catalog. Wonderland (sadly retiring!) just hits all the right notes for me – and adding sentiments from the Christmas Greetings Thinlits and Sassy Salutations just sends it smack over the top. Take a look-see:
