Stampin’ Up! Touches of Texture For the 4th of July!

Posted on June 22, 2016 by stampsnlingers

Okay – so….were you guys laughing at me yesterday? Behind my back? Did you think “oh, that woman is so goofy”?

Why didn’t any of you tell me that yesterday wasn’t HAWMP day at all?!? It was TUESDAY!! 🙁

As I got ready to write this post I read the morning’s post again – I realized I was typing the post on Tuesday evening, which means that it couldn’t possibly be hawmp day! Sheesh – I must be losing my head! 😉

Today (the actual HAWMP day!), I made a card with one of the cooler new stamp sets – Touches of Texture. Now, you might think that – what with Gorgeous Grunge and Timeless Textures, we might have enough textural stamp sets. But – this one is different entirely. Well, maybe not entirely, but it’s definitely different enough that it’s a great tool to have in your stash. So, I combined it with Number of Years and the Large Number Framelits and this is what I came up with! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Painter’s Palette Fun-Fold Card!

Posted on May 25, 2016 by stampsnlingers

Happy Hawwwmp Day! The week is half over. Or…considering that I have Friday off – it’s Over-The-Hawwmp Day! And I have the weekend off. And Monday! So…I am totally psyched to have 4 entire days – in a ROW! – to rest and sleep and make cards and maybe….join 3 million of my closest friends to eat at The Olde Pink House again…. and – did I mention sleeping? 😉

Today’s card is really fun. And so ridiculously easy that if you haven’t ever made one – the second that you see the “trick” you’ll be all “why the heck didn’t I do that sooner??” I used a couple of stamp sets on this one….Painter’s Palette (new on 1 June), Suite Sayings, and Watercolor Words. Take a look-see:

So – before I show you the innards, let’s talk about the front, okay? I started by SNAILing a piece of Very Vanilla card stock to a Flirty Flamingo mat. And then to a Basic Black mat. Continue reading →
