Feelin’ Like Frost Like Kylie

Posted on October 9, 2019 by mauistamper

THIS card from the amazing Kylie Bertucci was one of the reasons I decided to get the Feels Like Frost DSP pack. You might have figured out that I am completely enchanted with the Gorgeous Grape/Highland Heather/Granny Apple Green color palette. This Designer Series Paper pulls all of those colors together and brings you right into the MOOD.

Maui Stamper Stampin Up Feels Like Frost You Are Loved

Stamps: A Wish For Everything
Color Palette: Whisper White, Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green
Accessories: Lakeside dies, Christmas Layers dies, Polka Dot White Tulle ribbon, White Embossing Powder, Versamark Ink, Heat Tool, Glitter Enamel dots

I know I’ve said it before (who am I kidding, I’ve said it on every single post for crying out loud) – these images are so versatile that you could easily transition this card with any sentiment. It’s the One DSP To Rule Them All.

Don’t you think every single person needs to hear that he, she or they is/are loved? It takes so little to make a difference. Makes that $.55 postage stamp seem pretty darn cheap.

Make a card. Send a little love. If you need something to make it happen, shop HERE.

Feels Like Frost Birthday

Posted on September 21, 2019 by mauistamper

I challenged myself to create as many cards as I could in an afternoon using the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper stack. Buckle your seat belts! It was a lot of fun, and it was really easy. I think selecting the sentiments was the biggest challenge! Here’s the first one I’d like to share:

Maui Stamper Stampin' Up! Feels Like Frost DSP with Christmas Layers Die

Stamps: Past Paper Pumpkin (sorry, no idea which one)
Color Palette: Whisper White, Pretty Peacock, Rococco Rose, Smoky Slate
Accessories: Feels Like Frost DSP, Christmas Layers Dies, Lakeside dies, Scripty 3D embossing folder, 1/2″ Scalloped Linen Ribbon , Shimmery White card stock , Metallic Pearls

The various elements from the Christmas Layers dies are fabulous for all kinds of paper crafting projects. They’re timeless and multi-seasonal and a great addition to your crafty stash (‘cuz we all have a stash of one size or another, right??)

I love this paper and I’m confident you will too. Shop HERE.

August 2019 DIY: Lilypad Lake

Posted on August 1, 2019 by mauistamper

It’s been HOT. Those of us in the Northern Hemisphere have had some really hot summer days in the past few weeks, and here in South Maui it’s been no exception. When it’s this hot, the best place to be is on the water! I’ll be there as much as possible this month, even when I’m at my craft desk.

Stamps: Lilypad Lake
Color Palette: Whisper White, Mango Melody, Pretty Peacock
Accessories: Big Shot, Lakeside Dies, Memento Black Ink, Stampin’ Blends, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I usually look through the previous months when I sit down to create a new calendar card, but apparently I haven’t done a very thorough job! When I reviewed the first half of the year, I found birds and flowers. Lots of birds, and lots of flowers. I know, you’re shocked, right? I needed to break the pattern this month.

You could create this calendar in just about any color combination you like, and I think it would be fabulous in rainbow hues. I’m pretty smitten with Pretty Peacock right now, especially as that’s about the color of my ocean in the late afternoon.

Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to visit Crystal and Cheryl and see how they’re keeping cool in August. If you’d like to make your own calendar, I’ve made the 2020 pdf available. Each calendar page is 3.5″ square, and I pair them with a 3.75″ mat so they fit very nicely on the small wooden easels available in just about any craft store. The pdf is $5 and you can print as many copies as you like! Contact me and I’ll send you an invoice.

Keep cool! And shop HERE!
