11 Card Ideas with the New Bloom By Bloom Bundle | Luvin Stampin

Stampin’ Up! has had a focus on #simplestamping recently. It is a great concept – who doesn’t love a card that is quick, easy to make, uses just a few supplies and is cute? Sounds perfect to me! Today I want to share with you a truly #simplestamping card!! I am using the gorgeous Botanical […]

Welcome to the Jan 2020 Kre8tor's Blog Hop. You have just landed on For The Love Of Stamping - Tracie St-Louis. This months theme is Sale-A-Bration and Mini Catalog. There are so many amazing products in both catalogs. I love SAB! It is a yearly Stampin' Up! promotion that gives everyone an opportunity to earn free products with a qualifying order. If you don't have a copy yet of the catalogs be sure to use my "Contact Me" form on the left side bar to request one (Cdn residents only). In the meantime you can download them from the right side bar. For my card, I have chosen the Timeless Tropical Bundle (153811) & the Tropical Oasis DSP (151252). Look at all the gorgeous colors in the designer series paper pack! The sheets are 12 x 12 and you get 2 of each in the package. The color pallet consists of all the colors: Real Red, Terracotta Tile, Grapefruit Grove, Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody. Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive, Pool Party, Pretty Peacock & Soft Suede. I designed my card with the gorgeous floral patterned DSP. The base is Cherry Cobbler. I found that it matches really well with the DSP even though it is not one of the colors in the pallet. I have layered the DSP onto Shaded Spruce and popped the layer up on dimesionals. The center layers use the Starburst punch (Daffodil Delight) and White. I stamped the flower in Daffodil and then the greeting in Memento on top of the flowers. I used the In The Tropics dies (151495) to cut a flower and added a Champagne Rhinestone (151193) to the center. This layer was adhered to a strip of white that I stamped the same flower image in Daffodil and then adhered the whole layer with dimensionals to the center of the card. Thank you for stopping by For The Love Of Stamping. I hope you have enjoyed my card. Now hop on over to Alexandra Rauf's blog for more amazing projects.

Well hello there Stampers! How are you this fine day? Actually, it's late here. VERY LATE! lol. But sometimes a girl has to wait til everyone's in bed asleep before she gets a minute of quiet time to gather her thoughts. Ya know? Sale-a-Bration kicked off on Thursday and I'm having a FANTASTIC time with it so far! Everyone LOVES the promotions (buy $50 worth of products and get special limited time products for FREE), and the sign on incentive (get $175 worth of products for only $99 and FREE SHIPPING!!!). Of course they do! All of the FREE flyin' around can make your head spin! But hey! It's only once a year right? Use some of that Christmas money on a few stamp sets for yourself. :-) One of the GORGEOUS free products in the Sale-a-Bration catalog is the Precious Parcel Card Kit. Now, this kit may very well be perfect for beginning papercrafters with it's no stamping required design, but it's also one of the most beautiful card sets I've ever seen! I mean, Look at it!! Isn't it beautiful? The Victorian mailbox, the vintage colors, and that adorable envelope, just sent my heart a-flutter! Each card has a little insert that you can write love notes or other greetings on. It's just the cutest card set ever! It's SO CUTE! BUT upon first glance, it looks very limited. It doesn't appear to have much room for modification. So, I set out to make some alternative projects with it. I'm very happy with what I've come up with, and I hope that you will be too! Enter here, two totally different treat packages! As you can see, the one on the left is made from one of the cards. A little nip here and a tuck there and viola! A 3D Post Box. The box on the right is actually made by disassembling one of those glorious envelopes! Anytime I get my hands on an envelope with a pattern on the inside, I'm compelled to take it apart and use it in my projects, so I knew I would do SOMETHING else with one of them. The difficulty came in deciding which side of the envelope to use because the inside is a beautiful blue spotted design. SO CUTE!! The deciding factor was when I realized what the final box would look like by using the white and striped side out. You are gonna FLIP!!! Check this out! I couldn't have planned it better if I TRIED!! Which I didn't. It just happened this way. But what a happy result! :-D Isn't it SUPER ADORABLE?!! Not only does that GORGEOUS stripe go perfectly all the way around the top of the box, but it also creates the perfect envelope on the inside!! I just love it! So, how did I get the box from the envelope? Easy Peezy, my friends! First, you carefully open the envelope completely. Take care not to tear any of the flaps. Then, you'll want to score 1" to the inside of the prescored lines on the body of the envelope. Go ahead and score right down the flaps too. Just 1" on all four sides. Then, you're going to cut away some excess parts of the envelope until you're left with this: Notice that I have made a cut into the striped rectangle in the upper left? I've actually done that on all four sides. This photo shows it better: The next thing you're going to need to do is fold and burnish some lines. Start by fold and burnishing all four flaps to the original fold lines. Then, while that flap is folded, go ahead and fold the folded flap onto itself again, lining up with the 1" scored line. That sounds complex, but you can see it fairly clear here: Notice in this photo I have put tear'n tape on those four little tabs. I put it on both sides of the tabs to help hold the whole thing together tighter. You don't have to, but I like my boxes to be STURDY! Ok, the next thing you'll do is open all those folds and attach your tabs into place to form the box. Once you have all four tabs secured and your rectangle is formed, you can start folding the flaps back over the tabs into the middle of the box. Start with the two short sides first, and then the base of the envelope, and finally the pointed top (as pictured here). Notice the tear'n tape along the edges. I did that on all four flaps. Again, STURDY! ;-) See how beautiful the inside of the envelopes are? I will likely take another one apart and do it inside out so I have a box with that gorgeous print. It's so pretty! I am thrilled with how the stripes lined up on the box this way!! :-D The next thing we need to do is make the box top. For this, I used a piece of window sheet cut at 5 13/16" x 4 1/2" And then score all four sides at 1". You'll need to put a little OOMPH to get the window sheet scored and then burnished. But make it crisp! All that's left to do is cut the four little corners off completely. There you go! Now, just slide the lid into the base of the box and you're done! I embellished the box simply with one of the notecards from the kit and a bit of braiden linen. Pretty much everything I used came from the kit, so this will be an easy project to replicate. It holds 12 dove chocolates......... If you were wondering. ;-) I just LOVE Dove Dark Chocolate. It's my absolute FAVORITE! I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial and I hope you rip apart some envelopes! Just be gentle about it. hehe. Please leave a comment below and let me know if these instructions were easy to understand, or if I could improve this post in any way. I love hearing from everyone! I hope you have a wonderful day and as always, Happy Crafting!

Ahhhhh, roses! I sure do love them, especially the really fragrant old roses. Unfortunately, I have found them to be more trouble than they are worth, as far as growing them. Since I'm a somewhat lazy relaxed gardener, pests, diseases, and pruning made me cross them off my easy-to-grow plant list. And it's not like they can be preserved and put in the pantry, either, making them worth the effort. Guess I'll put my energy into less finicky flowers (Zinnias! Cosmos! Sunflowers!) and admire the stamped images instead. Naturally, Climbing Roses is one of my favorite new bundles, not only because the image is beautiful and fun to color, but the coordinating dies are to die for! (Heh, see what I did there?) The trellis is awesome all by itself, and I made it even awesomer by painting it with Frost White Shimmer Paint, so it really stands out on the white card base. And the dotted label is gorgeous, as well. I didn't know what to call it....holey, holey dots, dotted, pierced? Whatever it's called, it's so pretty! It measures 1-1/2" x 2-1/4" between the holes, so there is plenty of room for greetings or images. This is a Cling Mount stamp set so it's red rubber, which means it's good for the marker to stamp technique. I used Basic Black and Lovely Lipstick Stampin' Write Markers on the greeting, and the image was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento so I could color with Stampin' Blends. The dies include cutouts for the flowers, but I did fussy cut an extra rose to pop up on dimensionals. Now, I have to admit, the sentiment inside is not from Stampin' Up! but it was so funny, and so appropriate for me and my stamping friends that I HAD to get it. Lookie: Isn't that just hilarious?! Funny how that happens ALL. THE. TIME.

Welcome to a new challenge at As You See It! This week, we have a great sketch for you. I'm sure you'll see the many possibilities. If you visit the As You See It blog, you'll see the super examples that the rest of the ream have done. As this challenge begins, it's the final few days of Sale-a-bration - your chance to earn fabulous freebies with qualifying orders, which is a great way to make your crafting money go further. So my card uses a number of Sale-a-bration freebies: The Botanical Butterflies DSP, the organdy ribbon combo pack and the Butterfly Elements embellishments. In fact, I got so carried away with the sketch that I made a whole set of cards using the design. The SAB ribbon pack has five colours in it, so I made one of each colour. I've CAS-ed an idea from the ever-amazing Paula Dobson. She made some cards where she coloured in the negative space on the black and white butterfly paper. This was an idea I completely loved and have used for these cards. The Stampin' Blends make this so very easy. The sentiments come from Itty Bitty Birthday and, for the thank you, from Detailed with Love. The lacy edge is from the Doily Builder thinlit set, a real honey of a set which is set to sell out soon so if you want some - get in quick! You can play along with us until Wednesday 10 April, 11.55 p.m. PST. We'd love to see what you do with the sketch! If you live anywhere in New Zealand and don't have a Stampin' Up demonstrator, I'd love to be yours and to help you with ideas and Stampin' Up products. Please message me through my Facebook page, linked in the sidebar of this blog or leave a comment below.

I hadn't inked up these cute Cheerful Critters from Stampin' Up! yet, so I grabbed them and played along with Mojo Monday this week. I think this is my new favorite sentiment. I have several friends who I know will find it just as hilarious, so I can't wait to make and send cards to them. I am going to try to send this one off today. :) Laila has been going to bed early this week, so I've had a little time to color. I haven't really been in the mood to make a card, but coloring with my Copics has been good therapy. I tried to start the day off nice today, so we woke up and make muffins together. That was about all that's been fun so far. :-/ I'm hoping it improves soon before everyone is in bed crying.
