AESTAMPS A LATTE

 Hello, crafty friends. Happy New Years Eve Day! Today, I am sharing another creation I made using the Simply Succulents Bundle only this time I focused on the beautiful background die from the Potted Succulents Dies and paired it with a piece of Rococo Rose Oh So Ombre DSP which is a   FREE Sale-a-bration item. Isn't that background die gorgeous?  I am in love with it!   It would have looked great all by itself but of course I just had to add a few succulents from the stamp set for added interest.  Three of the smallest images were stamped in Memento Black and colored with Mint Macaron and Rococo Rose Light Stampin' Blends before they were adhered with Dimensionals. Additional bling was added using the hanging greenery die cut image using Mint Macaron cardstock and I also added a few Whisper White sprigs from the Nature' Thoughts Dies. I can't believe today is the last day of 2020.  What a crazy year we have all had.  I am praying that 2021 is ...

Hello, crafty friends. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas celebration! Today, I am excited to share a new creation using a bundle in the 2021 Mini Catalog called Simply Succulents. Succulents are quite the trend right now and making a few creations using a trendy bundle is so fun! :)  The Potted Succulents Dies has some nice greenery pieces to add to your stamped images and also makes a beautiful large die cut flower cluster (I will share a creation using it in another post).  But for now, lets talk about this creation:  I stamped 3 large and 2 small succulents in Memento Black ink and colored them with Mossy Meadow, Granny Apple Green and Seaside Spray for the 3 larger flowers, and Mossy Meadow and Old Olive for the 2 smaller flowers. I added some die cut greenery using Mossy Meadow cardstock and placed my "plant" into a Basic Black and Smoky Slate colored pot.  My potted plant was then layered onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock that was embossed with the Me...

Hello, crafty friends. Today's card features three NEW products from the upcoming Sale-a-bration Brochure:   1) the Corner Bouquet stamp set; 2) the Heal Your Heart stamp set; and 3) the Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper . I also used the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder from the Fine Art Floral Suite found on page 33 and the Blackberry Bliss Striped Ribbon from the Ice Cream Corner Suite found on page 49 of the 2021 Mini Catalog.   You can see how I made this card in my YouTube video here.  Here is the version I demonstrated in my video. I love how well the Heal Your Heart stamp set works with the Corner Bouquet stamp set. No wonder Stampin' UP! displayed these two stamp sets right next to each other in the Sale-a-bration Brochure.  lol Host Code: F9KZ9Q2W Place a $40 order (before shipping/tax) in the month of December using my Host Code and receive the  Meadow Moments Embossing Folders  as my thank you gift.   Happy Stamping!  

Hello, crafty friends. Here is another Christmas card creation I made for the 2020 season using the Perfectly Plaid Bundle with the Classic Christmas 6" x 6" DSP. I have to admit that I had  a lot of fun going thru my Christmas sets and deciding which ones to use with the Classic Christmas 6" x 6" DSP.  The patterns in this paper make it so very easy to use with just about any Christmas themed set you have. I punched out 7 trees using the Pine Tree punch with the Classic Christmas DSP , made a Whisper White snow drift using the Pine Woods Dies , and die cut the sentiment using the Tasteful Labels Dies with   Sahara Sand cardstock. I also used the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder on my Shaded Spruce layer behind the trees.  Host Code: F9KZ9Q2W Place a $40 order (before shipping/tax) in the month of December using my Host Code and receive the  Meadow Moments Embossing Folders  as my thank you gift.   Happy Stamping!

 Hello, crafty friends! Here's another Christmas creation for 2020 using the same layout, stamps and DSP as my previous post HERE .  I am so happy I got the Poinsettia Petals Bundle. I love this bundle!   I die cut 2 large flowers, 1 medium flower and 1 small flower using the matching Poinsettia Dies and also sponged the Shaded Spruce leaves using my White Craft pad.   A very easy card to make since you can die cut 3 flower petals at the same time. Are you "needing" the Curvy Dies yet? lol Host Code: F9KZ9Q2W Place a $40 order (before shipping/tax) in the month of December using my Host Code and receive the  Meadow Moments Embossing Folders  as my thank you gift.   Happy Stamping!
