Stampin’ Up! The Most Wonderful Time of the Year for the Happy Stampers Blog Hop

Posted on November 17, 2016 by stampsnlingers

Mornin’, y’all – welcome to another edition of the Happy Stampers Blog Hop. This is color week, with a great Christmas-y color combination. We’re down a hopper this week – Kristi Gray is away on vacation with her family! But the rest of us pulled on our creative thinking caps to make y’all some great projects, so be sure to check out all our offerings!

Here’s the color combination we’re all working with:

I called on the Global Design Project challenge this week to help me out with the design of my card!

I used the wonderful stamp set called Wonderful Year, and some Warmth & Cheer DSP Stack paper. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Totally Trees Papillon Thanks!

Posted on August 31, 2016 by stampsnlingers

Happy one-day-left-to-order-Thoughtful-Branches and one-day-more-to-wait-till-the-Holiday-Catalog-goes-live Day! Ha – you thought I was gonna say Happy Hawmp day, didn’t ya? Well – happy that, too! 🙂

Before we get to the card, I have a teeny little deer story for you. This evening when I stepped out the back door to go feed, as soon as I walked past the end of the house, I heard this great galumphing and pounding of feet at the other end of the house! It scared the you-know-what out of me! Once I returned to solid ground, looking around quickly to be sure no one saw me be such a ninny-wussy-sissy-la-la….I saw the cause of the commotion. The two tiny, baby deer twins – who are no longer so tiny or baby (they’re pretty much still twins. And….deer) – had been browsing the shrubs right against the house (no – it matters not to me, they’re ugly things that will one day find themselves on the burn pile!) – and I scared the you-know-what out of them when I came around the corner. 🙂

They boinged off a little ways – showing me how big their white tails are – and then turned to look at me. One just stood there – I choose to think she’s a she – and therefore smart enough to have assessed the situation and immediately determined I was no threat. The other, in a show of mighty manliness, stomped his little teenage deer foot a few times. When I didn’t immediately bow to his ferocity, he stomped it a few more times!

Well, that did it. I quickly jumped in the golf cart and backed cautiously away. I know when I’m licked! He definitely showed me what for!! 😉

In truth, it was pretty danged cool to be that close to them – once I could breathe again, that is!

Anywho – on to the card. Today I used a new stamp set – Totally Trees (get it tomorrow!!) and an oldie-but-a-goodie, Papillon Potpourri. I added a little Warmth & Cheer DSP, and a few other little goodies to come up with a thank you card. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Sneak Peek – Greetings From Detailed Santa!

Posted on August 21, 2016 by stampsnlingers

Welcome welcome, y’all! If you’ve stopped by from Amy’s blog, thanks for taking the time to visit! If you’re one of my regulars – well, you guys already know I’m happy and grateful to see you! 🙂

As I sit here typing away on Saturday night, I’ve got one of my favorite movies of all time playing….The Fifth Element. Do y’all know it? Bruce Willis at his sexiest best! I’m a total sucker for Snake Eaters – real or fictional! And for the guys…. Milla Jojovich. Yes, even I can admit she’s gorgeous! But, Bruce? Yea.

Best line of the movie….”Do you…mind….if I try?” Followed by a quick shoot-’em-up and “Anyone else want to negotiate?” And who can forget….”Big badda BOOOOM!!!?” And “Multi-paaaas”. Or….”Negative…I am a meat popsicle”. Oh, there’s just too many good lines! 🙂

Ha – I’m chuckling just in anticipation of seeing and hearing those scenes again! Picture me rubbing my hands together with glee!

So while I do that, how’s about I share a quick card that uses the new coming-to-a-2016-Holiday-Catalog-near-you Greetings From Santa bundle? Greetings from Santa is the same of the stamp set, and it coordinates with the Detailed Santa Thinlits.

All I needed to add to this bundle for my card today was a piece of the Warmth & Cheer DSP stack and some Cherry Cobbler 3/8″ Silky Taffeta Ribbon. Take a look-see:
