Paper Crafting Blog Hop – Valentines/Love Theme

Welcome to our January Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world, featuring cards for Valentine’s Day or with a love theme. Here is a sneak peek of my card. Below my full card picture is a list of links to all of this month’s participating bloggers. We are glad you are here!

I chose non-traditional colors for my card, starting with a Smoky Slate card base. The next layer is Petal Pink embossed with the Hearts of Love 3D Embossing Folder (#167071).

Next, I used a grayish piece of Country Woods DSP (#163393) and a piece of Thoughtful Journey DSP (163303). The final piece of DSP is from the Beautiful Gallery DSP (#165196). Tucked behind this layer is a Secret Sea die cut from the Greenery Lane Dies (#166876). The sentiment is from the Prayers and Promises stamp set (#167014) stamped in Secret Sea. A knot of Cloud Cover Textured Ribbon (#167182) and 3 Moody Palette Glossy Dots (#167180) are the final touches. What do you think?

Paper Crafting Blog Hop – December Winter Holidays!

Thank you for stopping by on our December Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world, featuring cards for the winter holidays. Here is a sneak peek of my card. Below my full card picture is a list of links to all of this month’s participating bloggers.

I love holly and so I picked the Jolly Holly Bundle (#166120) to create this card! Both the stamps and dies in this bundle are fabulous plus it has a hybrid embossing folder!! The card base is Very Vanilla with a layer of Very Vanilla embossed and die cut with the hybrid embossing folder. It is stunning all on its own. If you love this bundle, grab it from the Last Chance section now! It would be perfect to use for thank you notes after the holidays!

I used Gold Foil (#165864 ) to cut out the largest rectangle and “joy”. The smaller rectangle is cut from Very Vanilla. The bells were stamped with Versa Mark Clear Ink on Vary Vanilla and heat embossed with gold embossing powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165678). Simple and elegant, what do you think?

Paper Crafting Blog Hop – September new Mini-Catalog!

Thank you for stopping by on our September Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world, featuring products from the new Mini-Catalog. Here is a sneak peek of my card. Below my full card picture is a list of links to all of this month’s participating bloggers.

I love Autumn, so I picked up the brand new Amber Autumn Bundle (#165893) to create this card! Both the stamps and dies in this bundle are fabulous!! The card base is Cajun Craze with a layer of Cajun Craze die cut with the background leaf die. It is gorgeous on its own.

I used the Traditional Labels Dies (#165864 ) to cut a label in Basic White to anchor my stamped pumpkin cluster. After cutting the label, I stamped off the acorn cluster in Pecan Pie before stamping on the label. The sentiment was stamped in Cajun Craze. Next, I colored the pumpkins, gourd, leafs and grasses with Stampin’ Blends. Stampin’ Up! artists create the most amazing stamp images for us!

Paper Crafting Blog Hop – August, Get Well/Thinking of you!

Welcome to our August Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world featuring Get Well and Thinking of You cards. Here is a sneak peek of my card. Below my full card picture is a list of links to all of this month’s participating bloggers. Please leave a comment and tell us what you think of our projects!

Isn’t the scenic Designer Series Paper (DSP) so lovely to work with? The Splendid Autumn DSP (#164173) is one of my favorites and as I start to think of Fall projects, this is perfect!! I started with a card base of Cajun Craze with an extra 1″ strip embossed with the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder (#164049). The DSP is cut at 3″ to make 2 cards. The tall grass from Prairie Grass stamp set (#166168) was stamped in Early Espresso directly on the DSP. I live on the prairie of Illinois and I think these stamps are gorgeous!

After adhering these 2 pieces to the card base, I used a scrap piece of Basic White to stamp Thinking of You from the Right Words stamp set (#165316) in Cajun Craze and punched the ends with the Happy Labels Pick a Punch (#160683) then added a bow from the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack (#155475). The final embellishment are Pressed Flower Motifs (#165215).

Paper Crafting Blog Hop – June, for the Guys!

Welcome to our June Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world featuring projects for the special guys in our lives. Here is a sneak peek of my card. Below my full card picture is a list of links to all of this month’s participating bloggers.

I love the Loveliest Tree stamp set (#163714) and Loveliest Tree Dies (#163715) both a part of the Loveliest Tree Bundle (#163716) at a 10% savings. So fitting for a masculine card. I wanted a very muted, soft look to this card, so I started with a card base of Mossy Meadow with a layer of Crumb Cake.

I used 2 of the squares from Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183) to cut and create the frame. The tree was stamped in Crumb Cake over the Crumb Cake layer. Next, I inked the tree with sponge daubers directly onto the stamp using Early Espresso, Mossy Meadow, and Old Olive. I used a scrap piece of Crumb Cake to stamp Happy Birthday from Loveliest Tree and the new Hole Punch Assortment (#165409) to punch the hole and added a piece of Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack (#155475)

Welcome to our May Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world featuring products from the new Annual Catalog. Here is a sneak peek of my card. Below my full card picture is a list of links to all of this month’s participating bloggers.

I love the Sweet Blooms stamp set (#165181) and the Sweet Blooms Dies (#165186) both a part of the Sweet Blooms Bundle (#165189) at a 10% savings. And they are a part of the Florals in Bloom Suite Collection (#165193). My card has a card base of Cloud Cover, a new 2025-2027 In Color with a piece of Florals in Bloom DSP (#165175).

A narrow strip of Secret Sea, another new 2025-2027 In Color peeks out from the left hand side of the DSP. Secret Sea ink was used for the branch and the stamped words. Lovely was dies cut from Petal Pink. A quick easy card!
