Who is ready for the Spotlight of Nature Sneak Peak? I have created 3 simple projects using the Spotlight of Nature Bundle.
Hi Everyone, I'm back with the Seaside Wishes Bundle again and paired it up with the Beauty of the Deep Dies this time. Instead of using the Seaside Wishes dies in conjunction with the Hybrid Embossing Folder I just used the embossing folder by itself for the background. I used the new In Color Summer Splash with Coastal Cabana and Pool Party and love how they look together. I also added some of the new Basic Beige in and think it is a great addition to our neutrals.

Create these cards using the Many Messages Bundle and NEW Hand-Penned Suite of Products. Card by Stesha Bloodhart, Stampin' Hoot!
These Beautiful Friendship flower cards started out as a 'one sheet wonder' - have you done that before? I stamped the entire 8-1/2x11 Whisper White cardstock piece with all the flowers and leaves, then cut it into 1/4ths for the 4 card fronts. I love how pretty these cards turned out, and loved embellishing them with different greetings, ribbons, and mounting them on 4 different colored card bases. You can find the Beautiful Friendship stamp set on page 123, or #149252 here online. Ordering Reminder: when you purchase from me and your order is at least $50, you are
I’m sharing a few projects created by some of my very talented Stampin’ Up! team members with you all today. Not everything used on the projects is 100% current Stampin’ Up! items, but I hope that…
Who doesn't love the Beautiful Friendship stamp set? I really enjoyed stamping this beautiful background on a full sheet of A4 Whisper White card, there is a photo further down of the stamped A4 sheet before I cut it up to use on three cards. After stamping the background, I cut the card in half lengthways, giving me 2 pieces 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", then I cut one of the pieces in half to use on these two A6 cards (UK sizes). I just added greetings, a few gems and a bow to complete the cards. I used my marker to add black dots to the card on the left. I used the remaining 4 1/8" x 11 3/4" piece on this double easel card. Measurement are: Base card: Whisper White Thick, 4 1/8" x 11 1/2" folded in half to make a tent fold card Grapefruit Grove for the matting: 3 7/8" x 11 1/2" scored at 5 1/2" and 8 1/2" Stamped background: cut the remaining 4 1/8' length down to 3 3/4". Then cut into 3 pieces as follows: one piece measuring 3 3/4" x 5 1/4" and two pieces measuring 3 3/4" x 2 3/4" I have listed all products used at the bottom of the page.

Fab Friday is back with another challenge today. It's a sketch this time with a nice big center panel to work with. Have at it and share in the gallery! I'm using my Hand-Penned Petals stamp set along with the coordinating Hand-Penned DSP. I thought these colors and flowers are perfect for spring. I used the scallop die for the skinny cross piece but added the sentiment square because I wanted to use this sentiment from another new set; Inspired Thoughts. Thanks for looking!

Hello and Welcome to another fabulous Sunday Night Blog Hop and Challenge CASEING the CATTY. Welcome if you have just arrived from Monique. To CASE is to Copy And Share Everything or to Copy And Selectively Edit, and we love to CASE from our Stampin' Up! catalogues which are full of amazing inspiration. This week we are CASING our Favourite Project in the new Catalogue!! HARDEST CHALLENGE EVER!!! I love love love so much in this new catalogue and I did lots of creating and changing my mind and making decisions, so in the end I decided my favourite is the Boho Indigo Suite projects. Annual Catalogue 2020-2021 page 9 all images © Stampin' Up! ® I've been inspired by the gorgeous vanilla card on the Bottom Right, and the lovely vase card on the bottom left - these were the starting point for a few cards!! The card on the left inspired this lovely card featuring the gorgeous papers. I've made it into a card with a central panel featuring the lovely vase!! After completing this card, I then wanted to show off more of the paper, so I created another card in an extended z fold which features the paper to perfection!! The embellishment on this card really relies on the stunning dies that coordinate with the stamp set. I love the way this card folds out to really show off!! And then, at our recent team meeting I was totally inspired by Wanda who showed us a 'wiper' card with a super cute little pop-up feature!! This card features a bunch of the stunning die cuts that come with the Boho Indigo suite, as well as the lovely textured paper. The only stamping on this card is the greeting which is also stamped onto one of the die cuts included in the suite. When you push the card in the pop-up disappears!! And then when you pull it out the cute little 'wiper' feature pops up!! There will be a great video on YouTube to show you how to do this!! I hope you've been inspired too! This Boho Suite is just amazing and so versatile, fun and totally gorgeous!! I wonder what the rest of the crew found to be their favourites this week??? Keep hopping all the way around to see them all. Up next is the wonderful Rebecca who always inspires!! You can join in the fun too with us this week and share your favourite project inspiration onto our Facebook challenge page!! Look how much to get in this kit!! It includes the stamp set, coordinating dies, papers, ribbons, loads of diecuts and some super cute little felt flowers. When you purchase this kit, you will also qualify for a bonus voucher you can use next month!! Check out the details here!!
