MERRIEST MOMENTS

Posted on by
Reply

The intricate floral frame from the Merriest Frame dies sets the stage for a beautiful traditional card, complete with poinsettias and sparkle.

  • Stamps: Merriest Moments
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Real Red, Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Crushed Curry (inside)
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Merriest Frames dies, Boughs of Holly DSP, Linen Thread, Gold 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon, Vellum, Stampin’ Dimensionals, retired gold embellishment

I struggled for a bit with the Designer Series paper: it’s pretty bold, and I was trying to use it almost full size on the card front. It was too busy and it overwhelmed the floral frame. But there were some skinny scraps in the chaos that calls itself my craft desk, and they turned out to be just the thing!

More out of the box…I wanted wispy bits of gold ribbon and there was none to be had. However, the end of my gold shimmer ribbon was a little frayed, and as soon as I started pulling on it I realized it was exactly what I needed!! This time I used the warp, not the weft, by cutting a 12 inch piece of ribbon and trimming off one edge. These pieces started unraveling as though they were made for that very purpose!

Craft a little joy this season with the Merriest Moments stamps and Merriest Frames dies and embossing folder!

TAGS: Jolly, Jingle, Believe!!

Jingle Jingle was the one Christmas set I knew I had to have from the July-December mini. Well. And the Gnomes…and the Caroling Mice…and Leaves of Holly…who can resist a good Christmas stamp set? And it’s 15% off until the 18th!

  • Stamps: Jingle Jingle
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Soft Succulent
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Tailored Tags dies, retired ribbons

Tailored Tags is a lifesaver and it’s 20% off until the 18th!! I just treated myself to a second set so that I could cut them out even faster. You can double up Basic White card stock and cut two layers at once if you have fresh cutting pads. With two sets of dies, that means I can cut four at a time.

These are super simple by design. Sure, you could fussy cut BELIEVE because it’s mostly straight lines. You could emboss the stars and add bling, too. But this is simple stamping in its most pure form and when you’re busy, busy, busy, it’s the difference between imagined and done.

Can you stand that Santa hat? It can pair with so many other stamps.

I briefly considered adding the Flat Jingle Bell Trinkets to JINGLE. It would be the perfect touch, but it would be extra. This time of year, you don’t have to do EVERYTHING over the top. Choose where to invest your effort and let simple be just that!

Put some Tailored Tags and Jingle Jingle stamps in your shopping cart and you’ll have a beautiful stack of tags in no time. You’ll feel so proud that you got it done.

Don’t miss the Seasonal Sale through November 18th! Use Host Code MDDWAJGG unless your order is $150 – then please be your own host!

Kindest Gnome

Oh, these gnomes! They are such fun to cut and assemble like paper dolls! I die cut a big stack of pieces and spent a delightful afternoon putting them together. So much more fun than cleaning out closets. I recommend it.

  • Stamps: Kindest Gnomes
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Night of Navy, Sahara Sand
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Gnome Dies, Aspen Tree Dies, Sun Prints DSP, Blending Brushes, Champagne Jewel Rhinestones, Linen Thread, Wink of Stella, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I had a big stack of Aspens cut from a previous project and a donsy of gnomes (yup, check it out!) The Sun Prints DSP pulled it all together – those papers are so versatile! A little Stella on the embossed lines on his beard dressed up my gnome without overdoing it.

I brushed a little Sahara Sand on the aspens and gave them a little Wink too. For some ridiculous reason I decided the gnome’s hat needed something, so it got a funny Vesuvius tassel. I think I told you earlier this month that I’ve been working outside the box!

It’s quick and easy to cut out the pieces to the gnomes as they’re all pretty simple. Give it a try! See the Gnomes HERE.

Wattle: The Brightest Beauty

Posted on by
Reply

Have you seen a wattle shrub? It’s a member of the Acacia family, and if you’re an Aussie, you likely know it well. It’s the National flower, growing across the entire country – and it’s a beautiful stamp set in the mini catalog as well.

  • Stamps: Brightest Beauty, Art Gallery
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Granny Apple Green, So Saffron, Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Golden Beauty dies, Artistic Mix Decorative Masks, Blending Brushes, Stampin’ Write Markers, White Frayed Ribbon, Stampin’ Dimensionals

The wattle is beloved by Aussies, and I’ve got my very own beloved Aussie, so you can see why I might be fond of this glorious explosion of color. For my card, I colored the tiny blooms with Stampin’ Write markers, using a combination of Crushed Curry and Daffodil Delight. I used So Saffron for the mask on the card base to avoid overwhelming the flowers – a lot of yellow is, well, a LOT of yellow!

Did you see my custom trim? I’ve been feeling pretty out-of-the-box lately with trim. This particular bit is what you get when you pull apart the White Frayed Ribbon. I’ve cut it in half and tried playing (unsuccessfully) with the warp, but this card uses what would be considered the weft:

It initially comes apart quickly and easily, but as it gets longer, you have to tease it out with the pointy end of your Take Your Pick tool. It has a thin, wooly look – but be careful not to tangle it, or you’ll just need to pick out another length. Ask me how I know.

How do you challenge yourself to think outside the box? Honestly, for me it’s often boredom – I’ve used this, I’ve used that, I want something NEW. (oh dear, I think you know why I’m a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator now…)

Take a look at Brightest Beauty. It’s on page 60 of the mini catalog, or you can see it HERE. It’s a bit of a sleeper, so you might be the first on your block to craft with it! I hope you love it.

Leaves of Holly Triple Fun Fold Card

Posted on by
Reply

At Backstage, Stampin’ Up!’s Leadership Conference, I received a swapped card made with this triple Fun Fold technique. It’s easy to do – but you do have to pay attention, as I’ve assembled it backwards more than once.

  • Stamps: Leaves of Holly
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Cherry Cobbler, Real Red, Soft Succulent, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Holly Berry Dies, Boughs of Holly DSP, Gold 3/8″ Shimmer ribbon, Red Foil (retired, but Festive Foils is an alternative), Stampin’ Dimensionals, Stampin’ Trimmer

This card does get a little thick, so you might need an additional postage stamp to mail it. However, it does have space behind the panels for stamped or handwritten messages or a photo, so you can really customize it to suit your purposes.

Here’s a FILE that will help you cut your paper to create this card. Be warned, there aren’t any photos!

While I’ve made a Christmas card, this Fun Fold would be a perfect birthday card with a gift card tucked into one of the panels. Check out the Boughs of Holly Suite, but feel free to explore with your favorite DSP!

Thankful Friends and Aspen Tree dies

Posted on by

I love trees. There were beautiful aspens growing outside my first apartment in college and this beautiful Aspen Tree die cut brings back memories of standing on the second floor deck, studying their intricate bark. (I know the leaf doesn’t match, I’m claiming artistic license.)

  • Stamps: Framed Occasions, Forever Fern
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Starry Sky, Soft Suede
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Aspen Tree Dies, Fall Leaves and Amber Gems (back in stock week of 11/7), Blending Brushes, Daubers, Linen Thread

The clean edges of the die cut trees contrast well with the soft coloring achieved with daubers and the Blending Brush. Starry Sky is a perfect choice for a twilight sky behind the trees, and the little “dits” from Forever Fern suggest distant constellations.

I cut a stack of these Aspen Trees and keep finding new ways to style them. Gnomes, reindeer, birds, even Santa in a sleigh cutting across the sky would all work here, and in the spring, washes of rhododendron could fill the bottom half of the back panel. But don’t wait til spring, these dies are from the July December mini catalog – you need them now! Shop HERE.

Soft Seedlings in Autumn Technicolor

Posted on by

I have a bit of a fangirl obsession with one of our Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team members. Tammy Wilson just WOWs me with her creativity, and this card is very similar to her Soft Seedlings project last month. The technique is very easy and a lot of fun, and I can’t wait to try it with other images.

  • Stamps: Soft Seedlings
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Soft Suede
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Deckle Edge Rectangles, Tailored Tags, Timber 3D Embossing Folder, Sponge Daubers, Early Espresso Faux Suede Trim, Daubers, Glue Dots, Take Your Pick (TYP) tool, assorted Sequins

This is a variation on the baby wipe technique (add drops of ink to baby wipes) but the results are more vivid because you apply the ink directly to the stamp with a dauber. It’s an addictive process because each leaf turns out differently! I made half a dozen of these a couple of evenings ago and it was astonishingly therapeutic (well, all stamping is therapeutic).

#MauiStamper Stampin' Up! #softseedling #handmadecard #diy #fall #autumnleaves #thinkingofyou #stampinupdemonstrator

The TYP (Take Your Pick) tool is indispensable when you’re adding small embellishments. Use the flat end to pick up and place the Glue Dot, and use the putty end for the embellishment (I call the putty something else but this is family blog, lol – although little kids specialize in this particular sticky bit!)

I added a few little seed pods on the inside. When you make your own cards, you get to do that!

Soft Seedlings is available now in our July-December mini catalog. You can find it HERE.

October 2022 DIY: Hello Harvest

Posted on by

Don’t you love a big, round pumpkin? I’d prefer to look at one all month versus a jack-o-lantern, so I chose Hello Harvest for my October 2022 DIY calendar:

#mauistamper #stampinup #harvesthello #diy #2022calendar #DIYeaselcalendar #pumpkin #fall
  • Stamps: Harvest Hello
  • Color Palette: Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, Garden Green, Basic White
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Rustic Pumpkin dies, Stampin’ Blends, Champagne Jewels, DIY Easel Calendar template, multipurpose glue

I took a chance and stamped the pumpkin with Cajun Craze ink. We recommend Memento to work with Stampin’ Blends because it doesn’t run, so I had to be careful not to overdo my brush strokes over the stamped portion of the image. I was feeling a little rebellious 😉

I inked up the leaves and then stamped them off. I chose the ones I liked best to die cut and added them with the swirly bits. The pumpkin is on dimensionals, and a few gems add some sparkle.

#mauistamper #stampinup #harvesthello #diy #2022calendar #DIYeaselcalendar #pumpkin #fall

I began with Daffodil in the belly of the pumpkin to get that warm glow, then worked my way out with Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze. This is a very satisfying image to color – I recommend it!

Please take a moment to see what my dear friends Crystal and Cheryl have done for October 2022. We really enjoy sharing these calendars with you every month, and we hope you enjoy seeing them!

Backstage 2022 New Orleans: Count on Me

Posted on by
Reply

One of the genuine delights of any gathering of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators is swapping. I’ve been in New Orleans this week for Backstage, our annual gathering of leaders. You KNOW there was some fabulous swapping going on! Here’s a card I brought:

#mauistamper #stampinup #countonme #diy #handmadecard #stampinblends #paintedpoppies #sunprints
  • Stamps: Count on Me, Painted Poppies
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Poppy Parade, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Sahara Sand, Memento Black
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Deckle Rectangle dies, Stampin’ Blends, Sun Prints DSP, Linen Thread, Stampin’ Dimensionals

This card actually began as a Stampin’ Blends practice project. I wanted to work on shading, and that bear was my subject. I really liked the way it turned out, but it sat on my craft desk for a long time waiting for the right moment. When I started thinking about swaps, this card came together almost by itself.

Backstage has allowed the demonstrator leaders to finally able to meet one another in person. Covid has limited our opportunities to gather, and I’m sure many of you will agree that virtual gatherings only go so far. Since Stampin’ Up! is a multi-national organization, I’ve had the chance to meet fellow demonstrators from Europe and the South Pacific as well as the U.S and Canada this week. To say it’s been amazing would be an understatement.

I had such a good time with the bear, I decided to try the kangaroo as well. My eldest daughter is an Aussie, so the ‘roo is practically a member of the family.

In terms of coloring, this is actually a relatively simple project – just the critter and the poppies. There’s enough shading to keep it interesting, but not so much that you can’t do a few for some of your best new friends in the world.

Ready to color your own bears and ‘roos? Count on Me is a bit of a catalog sleeper – give it a chance. Shop HERE.

Hues of Happiness and the Fussy Cut

Posted on by
Reply

Some crafters detest fussy cutting, others find it relaxing. I find myself somewhere in the middle: I can usually do enough fussy cutting for one project, but then I am DONE. The Hues of Happiness Designer Series paper practically begs to be fussy cut.

#mauistamper #stampinup #huesofhappiness #diy #handmadecard #fussycut #birthday #timeworntype
  • Stamps: Go To Greetings, Forever Fern
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Gorgeous Grape, Melon Mambo
  • Accessories: Hues of Happiness DSP, Paper Snips, Big Boss, Timeworn Type EF, Gold Shimmer Ribbon, Stampin’ Dimensionals

There’s a little secret buried on this card front: some of these elements are not complete flowers. Images on the edge of the paper can still be trimmed and overlapped, providing even more options when you fussy cut!

I’m revisiting a favorite old technique here. I’ve used the edge of my snips to fray the edges of my card stock. It’s a way of setting the sentiment apart while allowing me to cut the exact size of paper I need.

This is an old fashioned feeling card, but it has a richness to it as well. The Hues of Happiness DSP has so many uses – you might just need to add it to your craft stash. See all the beautiful designs HERE.
