Welcome to our June Blog Waddle! We call ourselves ducklings, so we waddle from blog to blog instead of hopping!! We are featuring projects using Embossing Folders. Here is a sneak peek of my card. I love the deep lines and detail of the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder! Such amazing texture!

I began with a Basic White base, scored at 4-1/4. I used the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder (#162935) on a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White. It is embossed partially from one end and then a little bit from the other end, leaving a blank area between for the sentiment. The flowers are from Adoring Hearts stamp set (#162563), stamped in Memento Black ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends. Then I fussy cut them out. I stamped the sentiment from Cheerful Daisies (#161290) in Bubble Bath. Easy, but stunning card.

Welcome to our April Blog Waddle! We call ourselves ducklings, so we waddle instead of hop!! We are featuring projects created from the retiring 2022-2024 In Colors.

I began with an Orchid Oasis base, scored at 4-1/4″ and 2-1/2″. The DSP is cut at 1-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ and 2-1/4″ x 5-1/4″. I added a layer of Basic White 5-11/4″ x 4″ inside. I used the Perennial Lavender DSP (#162593) and the Two Tone Flora stamp set and dies (#159181). The leaves from Painted Lavender (#162594) were stamped in Shaded Spruce and stamped off, too. I stamped Happy Birthday from Pansy Patch in Orchid Oasis on a piece of Basic White. I completed my quick card with a piece of White Baker’s Twine (#155475).

Welcome to our March Blog Waddle! We call ourselves ducklings, so we waddle instead of hop!! We are featuring projects created from the January-April Mini-Catalog. It isn’t very “mini” as there are lots of goodies in there! Here is a close up of the details of my card.

I began with a Bubble Bath base and a layer of about 5 x 3-3/4. Behind the top layer is a very narrow layer of Berry Burst. I used the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder (#162935) on the smaller layer of Bubble Bath. Isn’t that a stunning embossing folder? Using scraps of Basic White and Berry Burst I die cute them with the 2 smallest dies in the Thoughtful Expressions Dies (#162821). I stamped Thank You from Something Fancy (#160416) in Berry Burst on the Basic White piece. I completed my quick card with a piece of pink ribbon from the 3/8″ (1 cm) Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack (#161635). Here is my completed card!

Welcome to our January 2024 Blog Waddle! Wow, the new year already and it is the BEST time of the year with Stampin’ Up!! We are featuring projects created from the Sale-A-Bration flyer! I decided to let the Softly Stippled DSP (#162975) do most of the work for this card! This fabulous DSP is free with a $50 product purchase. I also used the Softly Sophisticated Bundle (#162947) and it is free with a $100 purchase. Here is a closeup of my card!

My card base is Calypso Coral with a layer of Pebbled Path. Next I used 3 pieces of the Softly Stippled DSP for the top panel, bottom panel and the strip covering where they meet. I ran the 2 panels through the Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder, part of the SAB Bundle for a little extra texture. I stamped the sentiment from the Softly Sophisticated stop set in Calypso Coral and the edge of the flowers in Pebbled Path then punched it out with Heartfelt Hexagon Punch (#162888). I added some Rustic Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots (#159082) and a double bow from Linen Thread (#104199).

Please hop around and leave a comment to let us know what you think of our cards!

Today is the day!! Which is your favorite in the Mini-Catalog?

Welcome to our December Blog Waddle! We are featuring projects created from some of the products on the Last Chance Sale list. I love the Joy of Noel Bundle (#161967)! You can still buy it at the bundled savings while supplies last. Here is a close up of the details of my card.

I began with a Very Vanilla base and die cut the letters in Gold Foil (#132622) using the Joy of Noel Dies (#161965). Using a scrap of Very Vanilla, I stamped the cluster image from the Joy of Noel stamp set (#161959) in Shaded Spruce. I love how that image does the arranging for you!

Next, I colored the image with Stampin’ Blends in light and dark Shaded Spruce, light and dark Old Olive, and Real Red. Using Shaded Spruce I cut the pine boughs. Then I colored 3 Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels (#158987) with a dark Real Red Blend.

A bow from the Real Red and Garden Green 3/8″ Ribbon Combo Pack completes my card!

Welcome to our November Blog Waddle! We are featuring our wonderfully, always coordinated Designer Series Paper, also known as DSP!!

I picked the Oh Holy Night 12″ x 12″ DSP (#161986). This gorgeous Designer Series Paper pairs so beautifully with Night Divine Bundle (#161997) and the Stars at Night Bundle (#162007) to create a wide variety of Christmas cards. Here is a preview of my card.

My card base is Very Vanilla with a layer of the DSP cut from the bottom of the piece. The stable and camel were cut from Pecan Pie, the Holy family in Basic Black, and the animals from Basic Gray using the Night Divine Dies (#161996). The star was die cut using the Stars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder (162006).

The front is so beautiful, I put the sentiment in side using .
