Stampin’ Up! Large Numbers Bear Hug Birthday for the Happy Stampers Blog Hop

Posted on January 28, 2016 by stampsnlingers

Okay – it just occurred to me that I did a birthday card using the Large Numbers Framelits for the last Happy Stampers Blog Hop! Sorry about that – but it should really just go to show you how much fun and how versatile this set is! Wouldn’t surprise me if you see some other projects using it today in the Blog Hop. I hope that you’ll check everyone’s blogs out when you get done here!

This week we had a Color Challenge – Crushed Curry, Melon Mambo and Mint Macaron. Of course, I’d left my Mint Macaron card stock at home. So…had to look to my DSP – and I found the It’s My Party Designer Series Paper Stack. All three colors are well represented in this fun paper!

I combined a few sets for this project – deciding on the card when I realized that this year my husband will turn….duh duh duh duuuuuuh….SIXTY! Oh my goodness – how did that happen?? A little sobering. So I figured a not-so-sober card was in order. Of course, there has to be a little black on a birthday card for such an occasion!

So, I used the Number of Years bundle and combined some elements from Bear Hugs, Balloon Celebration and Party With Cake. Take a look-see:

What do you think? Did I get enough candles? 😉

Stampin’ Up! Number of Years Pop-Up Birthday for the Happy Stampers Blog Hop!

Posted on January 21, 2016 by stampsnlingers

This week we here at the Happy Stampers welcome you to a sketch challenge! It’s always fun to see what the 7 of us in the group come up with – we’re all so different in our crafty aesthetic – so seeing our 7 very different takes on the same sketch is cool! Hope you’ll take a few minutes to peruse all our various offerings today.

To start out – here’s the sketch we’re working with:

So – two years ago (and one month from today), a lovely little girl was born to one of our favorite and most fun-to-have-around team members. At that time, I was just getting a feel for stamping and making cards. Hadn’t even heard of Stampin’ Up!, let alone availed myself of any of their wonderful crafting goodies. But, nonetheless, I made a welcome baby card. Don’t even have a picture of it. Yes, I wasn’t even a blogger then!! 😉

Last year, I made a card for Miss Scarlett’s first birthday. It looked like this:

For today, as I make her second birthday card, I once again have wonderful Occasions and Sale-a-Bration products to use. I used two really fun things – the first is the wonderful, glorious Number of Years bundle, and the second is the so-intricate-people-think-you’re-a-genius-it’s-okay-just-let-them-think-you-are-one Birthday Pop-Ups Thinlit Dies.
