Under the Sea

Hi stampers and welcome! So glad that you are here! Today's card is very simple. Lately I have been in a stampin rut and when that happens I like to go back to simple designs. Using again one of my favorites this year the whale done bundle, whale of a time dsp and seabed embossing folder.

The jelly fish is die cut with the stitched so sweetly die set. I think my favorite little addition is the whale tale. I had it sitting on my desk from another project that I had not used it and thought it looked so cute on this card.

Thank you for stopping by today! I hope this inspires you to stamp today. Also, don't forget that the whale dsp is on sale this month. You will want this paper! Every design is adorable! Have a blessed day!

 

Follow the Star

 

Hi and welcome! This week I have been struggling to find creative juices. So when I get stuck in a rut I like to do something simple that takes no creative effort yet feel productive. So I have been wanting to make a card stock ring. I have a huge scrap box and I am not sure sometime which color card stock is what. So I made this ring to set on my desk as a reference.

I love the brightly gleaming dsp from last years catalog and I was so excited when they brought it back this year. I created a little scene with the peaceful nativity bundle. I also cut hills for the scene as well as used the subtle embossing folder to add a little texture. 

I didn't care for the way that the white outline stood out against the night sky and so I colored the edges with the dark night of navy stampin blend. When you look quick you do not see it as much but I think I would rather just fussy cut it next time. 

The dies in the bundle also come with a cute little star that I cut out with the copper paper. I love all the scene cards that so many other stamper make and I hope to get better at them. This was a fun try. I hope you enjoy this card and have a blessed day!

Only a few short days to order this fun set!

Peaceful Nativity

 

Welcome! Today I have made a card with the new peaceful nativity bundle. I love all stamp sets that are spiritual for the holidays. This one was the first on my list from the holiday catalog. I knew when I saw the dies for this that I wanted to make the manger with the in good taste dsp (which is on sale right now). I love how it turned out.

I took a picture of how I cut this out so that you can see I didn't waste all that beautiful paper. I cut a rectangle out and the manger but no one will know that I hid all that behind the frame of wood used on the card. Fun little trick to remember.

Using white card stock I stamped the greeting from the for unto us stamp set ran it through with my evergreen forest embossing folder.  I used stampin blends to color the Holy Family and the dies to cut them out. This card is a pretty simple design. Thank you for stopping by today. Don't forget to order the holiday paper pumpkin! Only a few days left!

Big Deal

 

Hi Stamping friends! Thank you for stopping by today. The other day I created so many fun backgrounds with the seabed embossing folder. For this background I rubbed balmy blue on the flatter side of the embossing folder and then took a piece of whisper white cardstock and ran it through my die machine. The look will vary depending on which side of the embossing folder you place the ink. I also ran a piece of balmy blue through with the same embossing folder and die cut with the stitched nested dies.

The rest of the card is pretty easy and quick. Used the whale done bundle to stamp and punch out the whale and greeting. I stamped the coral  lightly with balmy blue on the greeting. I used a few flower for every season gems for a "bubble look" coming up from his spout. I hope this card inspires you to do a little fun stamping this week. Have a blessed week and don't miss out on the paper pumpkin or the dsp sale going on now!

Also coming next month! So excited to share this fun new bundle of goodness!

Quick and simple Christmas card

 

Welcome! So glad you have stopped by today. I made one of the most simple Christmas cards ever! This card would be great to mass produce. When I first started stamping with peaceful nativity stamp set I thought how Jesus is the most important part of the scene. So why not put the highlight on Him. You do not even need the dies to create this card although you do get 10% off when you purchase bundle and the dies are really cute!

I feel this card is pretty straight forward, all you need is  momento black ink, daffodil delight ink pad, sponge, whisper white card stock and black card stock. I used the 1 inch hole punch to create a mask for the sponging of the yellow and stamped the star from the set on the sentiment. I did add a little wink of stella to baby Jesus. Thank you for coming by today and checking out my quick and simple card. Just stamps, paper and ink. Have a beautiful week!

Blessings to you all!

Mini paper pumpkin box of cards

 

Hi stamping friends! Welcome and so glad that you are here today. I finally had a chance to create a gift box with the mini paper pumpkin box. They are so adorable!  I used the whale done bundle to create cards and the box. Between the dsp, embossing folder and stamp set this was so quick and easy to make.

I only made 5 Stampin up notecards  with matching envelopes yet, there was room for twice and many. I think this would be really cute with some tea bags and so candy as well. 

I have taken a picture of each of the cards. Notice how the paper is so cute you do not need to do much.  And the paper  design is perfect for small cards. 

The sentiments in the stamp set are versatile enough that they make a great pack of cards.

Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you are inspired to create a collection of cards with the stamp sets you have. They make great gifts! 

Tomorrow is the last day to sign up for the starter kit promotion.
