Lovely Florals Birthday ...

Hello!  Hope you are having a fabulous day today!  I just have a fun card to share with you today made with the Lovely Florals Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!  

The greeting is from the Not 29 Anymore Stamp Set ... which has a fun variety of Happy Birthday sentiments and greetings.  But love how this card came together!

The flower is stamped in Gray Granite ink (and the grid behind the flower is also stamped in the same color) and then colored with Blends Makers:  Bubble Bath & Lemon Lime Twist.  

I am a bit obsessed with this banner piece that is in the stamp set.  How cute and fun is this little detail?!  And to say I am obsessed with the Gathering Leaves Embossing Folder is a bit of an understatement.  Hee.  😍

And here is one last look at the full card all together.  

I hope you enjoy this card!  Thank you so much for visiting!  Please let me know if you have any questions on anything!

Spooky Turned Soothing ... Color Challenge for TGIF Challenge #545!

We have a fun color challenge today for our TGIF Challenge #545!  I am excited about this one because given the colors in the challenge + the fact that we are in October now ... you may get some spooky vibes with the colors! 🦇👻🎃  However ... I went for a softer and soothing vibe for my card this week!  🌻 So let's get started!  

And then here is the official challenge with the colors ... 

Fun, huh?!  I had so much fun making this card!  All supplies are from Stampin' Up!  and I used the Beautiful Motifs Bundle along with the Sunflower Embossing Folder.  💕  Instead of using the cardstock with the deep rich colors, I used a Blending Brush with Gorgeous Grape & Daffodil Delight ink to blend the shade of the color I wanted onto Basic White cardstock.  I also stamped the floral texture stamp onto Basic White Cardstock before embossing with the Sunflower Embossing Folder.  😍  Of course - I added some splatter too! 

What do you think?  So pretty and soothing?!  One more full view of my card: 

So what do you think?!  Does this color combo make you feel more spooky or soothed?!  Hee.  Head on over to the TGIF Challenge Blog to see what the other designers made and to play along!

A Quick Sunrise Sailing Thanks!

Just have a quick share today!  I made this awhile ago and forgot to share!  I LOVE the Sunrise Sailing Bundle ... so gorgeous!  I paired it with the Ocean Friends Dies (on Last Chance list!  Don't miss this one!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE that big coral!) and quickly made this fun card!

I also used the Soft Waves Embossing Folder because ... well ... of course!  Hee.  There is a fun embossing folder that comes with the sailboat also. So I used that just with the sailboat to make that a bit more 3D.  It's fun in real life.  😃

Here are a couple more pics ... 

Thank you so much for visiting and really hope you enjoy this card!  Please let me know if you have any questions!  Would be happy to help you with all your papercrafting needs!

Branching Out With the Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team!

Time for another product spotlight with some of us on Stampin' Up!'s 2025 Artisan Design Team!  Over on Instagram we are sharing projects we made with the Branching Out Bundle!  And I think you will be able to tell we had quite a lot of fun with these products!  A fun variety of colors and layouts and ideas and more! 💕 I'm sharing my projects here, and then head on over to Instagram to check out all the others! 

I used a color combo of Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lime Twist, Peach Pie, Basic White, and Gold.  It was a really fun combo to use - so bright & cheery!  Let me show you each individual card a bit closer ... 

This one has so many fun details.  I did a watercolor wash background in Fresh Freesia, Peach Pie, & Lemon Lime Twist. Then stamped & embossed over that and added some splatter.  I am also obsessed with the layered die-cuts.  Just love love love them.  Haha.  Love the fun gold touches too - the embossed "hello" and the die-cuts add a punch! to the card.  Tip - die-cut a label and then cut in half to have a little peeking out from each side.  Swoon!  🥰

Then one last look at the full card: 

Now time to check out card #2.  Ready?!  😃

Lots of fun details here too!  First little fun tip ... 

I made a mask from a Window Sheet with the dies.  Then used that to add some ink to the larger sized die-cut for an easy and fun frame look.  

Then once again - loving those gold pops and the fun layered die-cuts and how the colors look together!  

One last look at the full card: 

Hope you enjoy these cards!  Have you played with the Branching Out Bundle yet?

Celebrating Birthdays With The Piccadilly Players!

The next Piccadilly Players Hop is here! 🙌

And this hop is all about BIRTHDAYS!  This hop is officially over on Instagram ... where we are parading through sharing our favorite birthday creations! Woot!  

I used the Light & Wonder Dies with the Not 29 Anymore Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! I also added a layer using some gorgeous Iridescent Treat Bags! Really love how all the layers came together to create this fun & festive card! 

The background was watercolored with Lemon Lolly & Peach Pie ink.  And then the clouds were embossed with the Gathering Leaves Embossing Folder.  

The bottom layer was cut out from Basic White Cardstock and then I used a Blending Brush to add Lemon Lime Twist ink to it.  

One last look at the full card!  This was such a fun card to make!  And I just am having a love affair with the Secret Sea In Color ... which is the base color of this card.  The Designer Series Paper is from the Boho Vibes Paper Pack.  

I hope you enjoy this card & it inspires you in some way!  Head on over to Instagram and follow along with the full hop!  😍  Thanks so much for visiting! Please let me know if you have any questions!

Silly Safari Inspiration for TGIF Challenge #543!

We have a sweet & pretty inspirational challenge for you this Friday for TGIF Challenges!  You could take anything from the challenge photo to use as inspiration to make something!  The colors, the layout, the theme, ANYTHING!  I personally used the layout a bit to inspire me.  So somewhat of a "silly" take on the soft and pretty challenge.  

And here is the inspirational challenge photo ... 

I really loved the "heavy" pile on the bottom with the scattering down on the rest of the card.  I thought it would be really fun with the tropical leaves from the Silly Safari Stamp Set.  And the Loose Shaker Elements are so pretty and fun to use as part of the "sprinkle" down the whole card.  Also ... I used the Wink of Stella to color parts of the cute animals and LOVE that shimmer.  Sorry it doesn't show up well in photos! 

A little fun tip ... I just cut a little slit in the leaves to add the animals.  I can't wait to make more with this cute stamp set! 💕

This was a supe fun card to make.  And I hope you enjoy!  Now you just need to head on over to the TGIF Challenge Blog to play along with us this week!  We can't wait to see what you make! 

Thanks so much for visiting!  Please let me know if you have any questions ... would love to help you with all your papercrafting needs!

A little Stampin' Up! In Color Fun With Fancy Friday!

Woot!  Time to share the card I made for AUGUST'S Fancy Friday Challenge!  Can you believe it is SEPTEMBER already?!  Gah!  I know I can't!  Time if FLYING too fast!  But this month is all about the In Colors!  I LOVE this color line from Stampin' Up!  I picked a few to use for this card ... two that are new this year and one that is from last years collection. 

We've got Secret Sea, Strawberry Slush, and Summer Splash!  LOVE these colors together ... if I do say so myself.  Hee.  I also love that little pop of Lemon Lolly to make "smile" stand out. 

A few more details ... TWO TONE Cardstock is SO MUCH FUN!  Here, I stamped it, embossed it, and then sanded it a bit.  LOVE the fun texture it adds!  Without any extra bulk! 

This bundle is a fun one to play with also.  It is the Spotlight on Nature Bundle.  Sadly ... the stamp set has been discontinued.  But the dies are still around!  And the greeting stamp set I used, Patterns of Friendship, is on the Last Chance list.  So if you don't have it - GRAB IT!  It is a fabulous one!  I use it ALLLLL the time!  

Thank you so much for visiting!  I hope you enjoy!  Make sure you check out @stampinfancyfriday on IG to see all the fun cards posted this month by our Design Team!  💗

Please let me know if you have any questions!  Would love to help you with all your papercrafting needs!  If you need to order any Stampin' Up! supplies - I would be happy to help with that as well!

Another Farmhouse Floral Paper Pumpkin Alternative!!

Do you like Petal Pink?! I hope so - cause this one is full of it!  Hee.   This is my second alternative that I am sharing from Stampin' Up!'s Farmhouse Florals Paper Pumpkin Kit.  You can see the first one in THIS POST!  I ♡♡♡ LOVE LOVE ♡♡♡ these typewriter die-cuts that are in the kit.  So I wanted to highlight it! And then how the kit mixes it with beautiful flowers ... well I think it is just stunning!  😃  All supplies are from Stampin' Up! 

Who wouldn't feel they were loved when they got this card?!  I may be biased, but I think most would!  😀😂

Let me share a few details ... 

The kit comes with the paper pieces to stamp & put in the typewriter also - isn't that so adorable?!  I used the Everyday Arches Dies to create the base of the focal point on the card.  Then I also used the Pretty Florals Bundle - Stamp Set & Dies - to add these fun floral accents on the corners.  

The background was stamped in Calypso Coral onto Petal Pink cardstock.  I used one of the stamps from the kit.  Yes - this kit comes with A FREE Bonus Stamp Set!  So you get TWO stamp sets in this kit!  And I love this one ... it is a strip of that fun accent that lines up with itself ... so you can easily stamp it repeatedly!   ***FUN TIP *** I took a Blending Brush and added some Petal Pink ink to the cardstock before I stamped it.  I just did this to get a bit more depth to the color tone and to stand out against the same colored card base.  Fun little detail.  

I hope you enjoy this card!  One more look at the full card ...

August Paper Pumpkin Fun! Farmhouse Florals Alternative!

I hope you have your August Paper Pumpkin Kit handy, because I have a fun alternative to share with you! I used some extra products from Stampin' Up! to add to the beauty of the pieces of the kit and the stamp set from the kit.  And ☆ BONUS!! ☆ ... this kit comes with an EXTRA FREE STAMP SET!  Woot!  So I used BOTH of the stamp sets!  Also ... did you know every 3 months there is a new die set released that coordinates with the Paper Pumpkin kits?  So I also used the die set that coordinates with this kit and is called Circle of Seasons.  

Let me point out some details: 

🌷 The circle die-cut & the "hello" greeting is from the Paper Pumpkin die set.  

🌷The gold floral image & the gold background is all stamped and embossed with Gold Embossing Powder.  The stamps are both from the kit stamp sets.  

🌷 The designer paper used here is from the Country Woods paper pack.  I love how the gold embossed detail looks on this paper! 

🌷 The flower over the ribbon is from the kit and the floral die-cut is from the Beautiful Motifs Dies.  

🌷 The ribbon is actually the White 1/4" Ribbon.  However ... I cut off one of the sides of the ribbon and frayed it.  Love how much texture and details this adds.  

I hope you enjoy this card!  Thank you so much for visiting!  If you need help getting a Paper Pumpkin subscription or any add-ons or Stampin' Up! supplies ... don't hesitate to reach out! Would love to help you with all your papercrafting needs!
