Sharing Loving Crafting - Brighten Your Day

Hello Stampers,
While scouring through Pinterest yesterday I found a sketch that I wanted to try, which comes from Tamara Bertram.

For this card, I chose Blackberry Bliss, Berry Burst & Bubble Bath Cardstocks, along with Celebratory Sips DSP. I used the Sharing Loving Crafting Stamp Set for the sentiment using Blackberry Bliss Ink & stamped it onto Basic White Cardstock, then added some  & Stampin' Dimensionals before adding it to the card. Lastly, I added a few Rainbow Dots to finish the card.

Sunrise Sailing - Happy Retirement

Hello Stampers,

Today's card was inspired by the color & theme challenge from The Card Concept. I was inspired by the beachy colors, so used a recent Online Exclusive stamp set.

I started with a Basic White Cardstock for the focal image using the Sunrise Sailing Stamp Set with Memento Black & Blueberry Bushel Ink Pads, then colored in the ship part with Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends. I used the retired Boho Blue Ink Pad with a Blending Brush to color in the water before adding this image to a layer of Blueberry Bushel Cardstock. Next, I took a piece of Boho Blue DSP from the retired 2023-2025 In Colors DSP, added it to a Pecan Pie Cardstock base, then attached the focal image. I used a sentiment from the set using the Blueberry Bushel Ink Pad then cut both sides at an angle which just happened to be the width of the DSP. Lastly, I added a few retired Solid Gems to finish the card.

Celebratory Sips - Cheers!

Hello Stampers,
Today's card uses a recent Online Exclusvie stamp set. I didn't originally set out to make this particular card I had a whole different set I was thinking about, then changed my mind. My brain was coming up with another idea & this is what I ended up with. LOL!

I started this card by die-cutting the 2 glass dies from the Cheers & Sips Dies from a Cloud Cover Cardstock base, along with 2 drinks from the Celebratory Sips DSP. Next, I used the Elements of Text Stamp Set to add a few splotches onto the base using the Stampin' Write 2025-2027 In Color Markers since I haven't gotten the Cloud Cover Ink Refill to make my mini ink pad. I then pulled out the Mini Alphabet Dies to create a a cheers banner! I wrapped around the card & the smallest glass with the White 1/4" Ribbon & tied it into a knot, before finishing the card with a few Purple Sequins in the white color

Perennial Postage - Thank You

Hello Stampers,
Oh my it's been a busy week- late nights & early mornings make for a very grumpy ME! I came across this reel that made a card using what she calls the Fault Line Technique, so I decided to make a card using this. It's also a great way to showcase some of our favorite DSP.

I started this card using the Mixed Media DSP & gluing it to a Calypso Coral Cardstock base. I used the Perennial Postage Stamp Set to stamp one of the sentiment onto Basic White Cardstock using the Calypso Coral Ink Pad. I lined the Basic White & Granny Apple Green Cardstocks then tore them in half so they would have the same torn marks on each piece, then glued the Basic White Cardstock pieces to the Granny Apple Green Cardstock a little above the torn parts so you saw both pieces. Once I had the 2 pieces together I was able to add them to the card leaving a small border all around the card. I finished the card by adding a few Brushed Brass Butterflies. It's a rather quick card to make or even multiple cards.

Everyday Arch Dies Make Happy Birthday Rainbow

Hello Stampers,
Today's card was inspired by a card I saw on FB yesterday & I was like "oh I can make something similar with Stampin' Up! products!" 

I started die-cutting with the Everyday Arch Dies using Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Shaded Spruce, Azure Afternoon & Gorgeous Grape Cardstocks, then layering each piece on top of each other. I used the Unbounded Love Stamp Set to stamp the sentiment onto the Gorgeous Grape die-cut piece with the Memento Black Ink Pad. Next, I used the retired Cloud Punch to add a couple clouds using Basic White Cardstock under the rainbow. I used a Basic White Cardstock base, followed by a layer of Everyday Skies DSP, before attaching the die cut using Multipurpose Liquid Glue & Stampin' Dimensionals.
