Let’s Make It an Amazing Year

Posted on by

Amazing Year caught my eye the first time I flipped through the Annual Catalog. We have lots of flowers, but not so many bouquets, and this one can stand all by itself:

Maui Stamper Stampin' Up! Amazing Year Deckle Rectangle Dies Stampin' Blends
  • Stamps: Amazing Year
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Soft Succulent, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Balmy Blue, Mint Macaron, Orchid Oasis, Highland Heather
  • Accessories: Big/Baby Boss, Deckle Rectangle Dies, Stampin’ Blends, Metallic Woven Ribbon, Take your Pick Tool, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I went a little outside my comfort zone coloring this image. I added in a lot of different colors, because Mother Nature does that, right?

With all that color, I kept the base and panel Basic White. To add a little distinction, I brushed the edges of the Deckle Rectangle 💕 with Highland Heather, and I flicked a paintbrush with a little ink refill in a puddle of water to create watercolor droplets for the card base. I shredded the metallic woven ribbon with the pointy bit of my pick tool, then gathered up the threads to tie a bow. They need a dab of liquid glue to keep them from coming undone.


I love the simplicity of this layout and the focus on the bouquet. I’m going to make another in pinks and corals, so stay tuned. While you’re waiting, you can see this sweet stamp set and add it to your shopping cart HERE. Thanks for stopping by!

Hippo in Wonderland

“Hippo, whoooo are youuuuu?” said the Caterpillar (apologies to Lewis Carroll). There’s no caterpillar here, but that winking Hippo is pretty sassy all the same!

  • Stamps: Hippest Hippo, Kindest Gnomes, Paradise Palms
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Pale Papaya, Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, Naturals 200, 400 & 600
  • Accessories: Big/Mini Boss, Hippos dies, Storybook Gnomes DSP, Stampin’ Blends, Pool Party Sheer Ribbon, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I experimented with a lot of Hippo colors, but ultimately decided that my card looked best if the Hippo shared the same colors as the wooden door on the mushroom. I used our new Naturals line of Stampin’ Blends to color them both.

The Storybook Gnomes DSP is a real find! Great colors, great images, and it really makes a card pop. It also helped direct my color choices for this card, and I don’t think I would have used Pale Papaya without that inspiration.

I used a teeny splash of pool party on this Hippo’s eyes and in the window panes. I considered putting a little smooch on that kisser, but decided that would just be lipstick on a…well, you know.

Those Hippo stamps and dies are available as Sale-a-bration 2022 v2 choices, but I wouldn’t wait too long to place an order. We’ve been reminded by Stampin’ Up! that all Sale-a-bration selections are WHILE SUPPLIES LAST, and you know what that means! Skedaddle on over to the Online Store and get yours today! Both the Hippos stamps and dies are available with your $50 purchase: you’ll need to spend $100 to get them both, but it won’t cost you a penny to add them to your order!

Floating Sunset

When I saw Laura’s Floating Sunset Palm card I did a little happy dance. I knew this was a card I would love making again and again, and the Paradise Palms bundle absolutely makes this project!

Handmade card with a blue watercolor background and a multi color circle with a palm tree
  • Stamps: Paradise Palms, Here Together
  • Color Palette: Sahara Sand, So Saffron, Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Mango Melody, Pumpkin Pie, Calypso Coral, Sweet Sorbet, Poppy Parade, Starry Sky, Very Vanilla, Old Olive
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Palms dies, Layering Circles dies, Watercolor Paper, Ink Refill, Water Painters, Window Sheets, Stampin’ Dimensionals
Handmade card close up with multicolored circle and die cut palm on a blue watercolor background

The technique is really simple: cut a circle from our window sheets and adhere strips of colored card stock. I chose to vary their width, which also allowed me to include more colors. 😁 I added a little color to the palm, and used Starry Sky to wash the watercolor paper with color for the background.

handmade card with a multicolored semi circle on a blue watercolor wash background with a palm tree and the words Hope you find a little paradise wherever you may be

I made a second version with the sun sinking into the water. I considered changing the color of the background for this, but honestly, this is how it looks when I watch the sun go down, so I kept it.

A card held open to show 3 small palm trees on the inside. Behind the card is a stamp case with palm images

The inside of this card was begging for these 3 palms, which I colored with Stampin’ Write markers.

Do you see that label on my stamp case? 22JJ? I embraced my inner nerd and made labels for each case to indicate the catalog where they first appeared. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried to dig back for that information, so now when my order comes I get out my label maker and put labels on EVERYTHING.

22JJ means this bundle is made its debut in the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. It has carried over to the 22-23 Annual Catalog, but it is NOT available as a bundle in the Annual Catalog. That means you have until June 30 to save 10% on this indispensable bundle, so SHOP NOW.

For just $99 you’ll choose $125 in Stampin’ Up! product and receive a bonus of 22 – 24 In Color Grid Paper, ink pad assortment, cardstock assortment, and Designer Series paper – an added value of $66.50.

One of a Kind Brushed Rainbow

The Brilliant Rainbow dies keep inspiring me with new ideas! I had a big stack of leftover “negatives” and realized they made perfect templates for brushing beautiful, soft rainbows. This is a very quick card!

Maui Stamper Stampin' Up! Brilliant Rainbow Slim Sayings #DIY #handmadecard #stampinupdemo #makeacardsendacard
  • Stamps: Slim Sayings
  • Color Palette: Fresh Freesia, Blushing Bride, Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, Gorgeous Grape, Basic White
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Brilliant Rainbow Dies, Blending Brushes, 2021-2023 In Color 6×6 DSP, Multipurpose Glue, Note cards and envelopes

I used washi tape to hold my note card in place, then layered the die cut negative over the note card and secured it with a little more washi. Brushing the arcs is easy – choosing the colors is harder! I could do this over and over again with different results each time. The template is good for a number of uses, especially since the Blending Brush doesn’t make it soggy.

I love this sentiment from the new Slim Sayings stamp set! It’s perfect for any occasion, and in my opinion, it’s right up there with Mr. Rogers’ “I like you just the way you are.” And can’t we all use a little more of that right now?

Rainbow of Happiness

Posted on by

Truth: I am not all that into rainbows. I KNOW. I live on Maui. And I love them IRL. But as a design element, not so much. Until Rainbow of Happiness:

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Rainbow of Happiness Brilliant Rainbow dies handmade card
  • Stamps: Rainbow of Happiness
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Highland Heather, Polished Pink, Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Brilliant Rainbow dies, Notecard and envelopes, Multipurpose Glue, Ink Refill, paintbrush

I pulled out my 3 1/2″ x 5″ notecards for this one, as I knew I needed a fistful of cards for quick notes. The process of cutting out 4 colors for the rainbow with the big half-arc die generated 4 sets of rainbows, making this a pretty efficient little project!

I decided that the white notecard was a little too plain, so I put two (JUST TWO) drops of Pool Party ink in a little dish and added a couple of tablespoons of water. I dipped a medium-sized paintbrush into the diluted solution and flicked it lightly across the paper. You’ll need to let this dry a bit before using Multipurpose Glue or stamping, since the drops dampen the paper enough to create *issues*. Ask me how I know 😁 You’ll also want to be sure there’s nothing else in the general vicinity when you start flicking, unless of course you want LOTS of little Pool Party splatters on ALL of your projects.

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Rainbow of Happiness Brilliant Rainbow dies handmade card

I had a set of negatives left when I finished my little rainbow notecards, and put them to good use with the coordinating paper from Sale-a-bration, Sunshine and Rainbows. I am so happy with the way Stampin’ Up! chooses to put a bold pattern on one side and a tone-on-tone pattern on the reverse of nearly every sheet of Designer Series Paper we offer.

a new way to say ALOHA

Posted on by

I’ve had an idea I’ve been pondering for a while, and recently I spent some time working with it. I tried a number of variations, and I’m not sure I’ve got it yet. I hope if you look at this long enough, you’ll see the word ALOHA. This isn’t my original idea: you see this done all over the islands in wood blocks and printed on bumper stickers. I wanted to translate it to paper, and it proved more challenging than I expected.

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Aloha handmade card
  • Stamps: None!
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Highland Heather, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Real Red, Bermuda Bay
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Stitched Rectangle dies, Stitched Triangle dies, Stitched Circle dies (retired)

I created this as a slimline card in order to have space for the letters, but it seemed a little boring, so I started to play:

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Aloha handmade card

I went back to the 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ format for this version, and created a background using the Alcohol Ink technique. I did it on a vellum layer, which gives those bold colors a softer look.

Next I pulled out my Timeless Tropical stamps and created a bold background with Daffodil Delight and the hibiscus image:

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Aloha handmade card

On a roll, I used the palm tree (also from Timeless Tropical) in Granny Apply Green:

Honestly, I think it looks really crowded in 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″, and I might give it a try with a custom card size and a handmade envelope. It’s a fun concept, but I think it still needs work. What do you think? Different size? Different background? What else?

Bloom Where You’re Planted

I’ve been working on clearing out the stamp room and I found a package of printed card bases with coordinating envelopes from a Sale-a-bration long past. Bloom Where You’re Planted was on my craft desk too, as were some odds and ends from the Pattern Party DSP. Before I knew it, I had a card!

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Bloom Where You're Planted handmade card
  • Stamps: Bloom Where You’re Planted
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, Soft Suede
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Perfect Plants dies, Scalloped Contours dies, Pattern Party DSP, Bakers Twine Essentials, Stampin’ Dimensionals, retired card bases

My card stash is running low, and I’ve been working on relatively simple designs that I can produce in groups. I don’t like mass production, and I don’t like having a LOT of one card, but working in groups of 4 suits me well. It’s not too tedious to stamp and die cut in fours, and I can almost always use that many of one design. I can easily set up 4 cards-in-process in my craft space, making assembly go quickly.

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Bloom Where You're Planted handmade card

I snipped the ends of the sentiment panel with my snips – that’s not a die, although somewhere deep in my brain I think we have or had one in this shape. I separated the threads of the Black Bakers Twine so the knot wouldn’t be too thick, and everything else is just Stampin’ Dimensionals. You can see how easily this went together.

Flowers of Friendship: the Golden Poppy Version

Posted on by
Reply

I grew up in California, and the state flower, the California Golden Poppy, is an evocative memory of home. This image in the Flowers of Friendship set reminded me of those beautiful golden fields.

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Flowers of Friendship Square Card
  • Stamps: Flowers of Friendship, Forever Fern
  • Color Palette: Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Crushed Curry, Basic White
  • Accessories: Flowers & Leaves punch, Hand Penned Designer Series paper, White 1/4″ Crinkle Seam Binding, Granny Apple Green dark Stampin’ Blend, Stampin’ Write markers, Stampin’ Dimensionals

Most people think of poppies as, well, poppy-colored, but California Poppies also grow in a glorious shade of yellow. I used Crushed Curry for the outline image of the flower (I used Stampin’ Write markers direct to the stamp) in order to make the petals more defined.

I colored the White 1/4″ Crinkle Seam Binding with my Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blend. I was prepared to wait a bit to be sure the ink was dry, but between the soft, lightweight ribbon and the magic of alcohol markers, the ribbon was dry and ready to add immediately. I hope we *always* have White 1/4″ Crinkle Seam Binding!!!

I also fussy cut parts of each flower to layer them and add more dimension. The shapes are simple, so it’s not really fussy cutting – more like snip-snip-cutting!

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Flowers of Friendship Square Card

I left the sentiment off this card, as I often do, so that I can customize it when I’m ready to send it. I’ll create a custom square envelope with coordinating DSP and add the extra postage to be sure it arrives. If you make your card a 4 1/4″ square, you can put it in our standard envelope and send it for the regular one ounce USPS rate.

This set is another great option for quick and easy cards. The images are simple to color, and the coordinating punch makes it easy to add a layer. Shop HERE to add it to your crafty stash!

Color and Contour and Stampin Blends

Can I just go out on a limb and say you NEED the Color and Contour Bundle? The images and sentiments make gorgeous cards, and the dies – especially the layering scalloped rectangles – are indispensable. Oh, and Blends: you’ll need Stampin’ Blends.

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Color and Contour Stampin Blends #handmadecard #DIY #makeacardsendacard #fancyfold
  • Stamps: Color and Contour, Sweet Strawberry
  • Color Palette: Pale Papaya, Mint Macaron, Basic White, Memento Black
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Scallop Contour dies, White Crinkled Seam Binding ribbon, 21-23 In Color DSP, Champagne Rhinestones, Stampin Dimensionals

This card is a Fancy Fold. It’s pretty tricky to photograph and get the full impact, but the scalloped focal point opens on a hinge to the right, and the card opens the normal way to the left. My inspiration was a Stamptastic Designs Youtube video and she does a great job of explaining how the card is constructed.

I used the dark Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blend to color the White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon. It is VERY easy to do, and dries in the blink of an eye. (Really.) I also used the leaf image to create an abstract border on the white panel inside of the card. Those little extras aren’t necessary – but they make a card so personal.

Each scalloped rectangle has a different detail on the edge, but they nest beautifully. The large stitched scallop edge die is also part of the set, and I confess I clapped my hands and laughed out loud when I figured out that I could add that to the edge of the card. Those details are truly a Stampin’ Up! trademark.

Spend a little happy time coloring with Stampin’ Blends this weekend. And don’t forget the Last Chance products from the January – June Mini Catalog! They’re available while supplies last, but gone for good on June 30th. Find all of them HERE, and click HERE if you’d rather just see those on sale.

True Love for Snailed It

Our catalog calendar this year is a little different than in the past. While the Annual Catalog ends on May 3, the January-June catalog is available through June 30. That means that the True Love Designer Series paper and my favorite Snailed It images will be around for a while, and I intend to make use of them as much as I can!

Maui Stamper Stampin Up True Love with Snailed It
  • Stamps: Snailed It, Many Messages
  • Color Palette: Basic Black, Basic White, Magenta Madness, Seaside Spray (retiring 5/3)
  • Accessories: True Love Designer Series Paper, Big Boss, Stitched Shapes Dies (retiring 5/3), Messages Die, Snail dies, Old World Paper Embossing Folder (retiring 5/3), Stampin’ Blends, Fine Tip Glue Pen, Stampin’ Dimensionals

This is a great example of a simple layout stepped up with the use of dies, DSP and embossing folders to add interest and texture. It’s just a few rectangles and a snail, right? That little “Oh happy day” sentiment from the Many Messages bundle is a great multi-purpose message. I can add Congratulations or Happy Birthday on the inside when I’m ready to send.

Maui Stamper Stampin Up True Love with Snailed It

It’s hard to see, but trust me, those snaily eyebubs have some shine. I keep a long bamboo skewer on my craft desk (indispensable in so many ways). I’ve used it here to add some Fine Tip Glue to emphasize my snail’s eyes. The skewer gives me more control over how much and where the glue ends up.
