August 2018 – Teresa's Stampin' Spot

Last Chance…

For the Blended Seasons Bundle! Today is the last day to get your Blended Seasons Bundle and Watercolor Pencil Assortment #2 Pack! Don’t miss out!!! Order here!!

Here is my last card featuring this bundle:

The holly is colored with the Assortment #2 Watercolor Pencils – Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler and Granny Apple Green and a blender pen. The sentiment is stamped in Cherry Cobbler Ink. 4 of the coordinating dies were used for the die cuts – so yes, you get that cute bow under the sentiment in the pack of Framelits.

Hard to see in this picture – but I did run the Crumb Cake card stock through the Big Shot with the Subtle Embossing Folder. If you want a better look at what the Subtle Background adds to a card, check out this post.

I am truly going to miss showing this bundle but will be moving it over to my personal collection for sure.

A Touch of Fall

Hi! I am back today with one of the cards demonstrated on last night’s Tuesday with Teresa Facebook Live!

I am in mood for fall – as these last few days we’ve been under a heat index warning with temps in the 90’s and “feels like” nearing 100. So, here is my take on a fall card using the Touches of Texture stamp set.

Do you see the pop of texture on the Vanilla card stock? That is the Subtle Embossing Folder! Isn’t it gorgeous? I LOVE it!! It was hard to tell in the catalog what the result would be – so now you know!! You can order yours in my store here.

Here is the video from last night:

The dimensions for the card stock:

Base: Soft Suede – 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″ and folded

Very Vanilla – 4″ x 5 1/4″

Sentiment Banner – Very Vanilla – 3/4″ x 2 3/4″, Soft Suede 7/8″ x 2 7/8″

I think I’m going to make a few more of these as I love how they turned out!

Ok, a few more days left for the Blended Seasons bundle and Watercolor Pencil Assortment #2 pack. Don’t miss out!!

And – just 2 days left of the Bonus Days!! There is still time for you to earn a $5 coupon with a $50 purchase! (US, prior to S/H and tax).

I Hear

Wedding Bells! I saw a card by Lori Mueller using the bell in the Blended Seasons bundle as a wedding bell and thought “Genius!” I love how versatile this bundle has turned out to be! If you haven’t gotten it yet – now is the time as this bundle is only available until August 31st. Order HERE!

Ok, so here is my wedding card:

Wedding, Blended Seasons, Stampin' Up!, SU!

What do you think? For the bell, I colored with Stampin’ Blends Rich Razzleberry and Daffodil Delight. The Designer Series Paper on the left is from the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper pack.

I love the front cut on this card. I started with a 4 1/4″ x 11″ piece of Rich Razzleberry Cardstock, scored at 5 1/2″ and then trimmed off 3″ from the front. I turned this piece sideways and used it for a front flap. Very cute, right?

The Basic Black mats measure 2 1/4″ x 4″ for the mat beneath the Designer Series Paper and 2 3/4″ x 4″ for the front flap. The Designer Series Paper measures 2″ x 3 3/4″ and the Whisper White panel measures 2 1/2″ x 3 3/4″.

I did include a piece of Whisper White for the inside of the card – this measures 4″ x 5 1/4″. It helps frame the front panel as well.

Just a reminder that August 31 is also the last day to get your Watercolor Pencils Assortment #2. You’ll find those here.

And, finally, August 31 also marks the end of the Bonus Day Coupon earning period. For every $50 (US, prior to S/H and tax) you spend, you get a $5 coupon to redeem in September. There is NO LIMIT to the number of coupons you can earn!!

Keeping It Simple Friday

Hi! Today I have a quick and simple card for you – because sometimes, that is just what we need. Thinking of You, Rooted in Nature, Fall, Stampin' Up!, SU! Simple doesn’t have to mean ugly. I love the Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper pack – such gorgeous colors! I am not sure I would have thought to do leaves in Blackberry Bliss and Petal Pink – but this paper is just so pretty! As I said, I kept it simple by just adding a sentiment, a little baker’s wine and a leaf embellishment. Pretty straightforward and done in less than 10 minutes.

What do you think? Do you like quick and easy? With some of our Designer Series Paper you don’t need more than a sentiment and a little embellishing.

We are winding down our two promotions – only 2 weeks left – to get the Blended Seasons Bundle and earn a Bonus Day’s Coupon! Shop my on-line store today to get both! Please use Hostess Code XVQXXWVU for orders under $150 (prior to S/H and tax). There is no limit to the number of Bonus Day coupons you can earn! Every $50 (prior to S/H and tax) earns you 1 coupon!! Coupons can be redeemed in September!

Merry Christmas Holly

Hi! How are you today? Here is my next installment using the Blended Seasons bundle that is only available this month. You’ll find it in my on-line store here.

This is a Christmas version of the Birthday card I featured a few weeks ago. The colors for his card are Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler. The Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen were used to color the holly and hte bell. While it is difficult to see in the picture, I did use the Clear Wink of Stella glitter pen on the bell and berries in the holly. Here is a view of the back of the card:

This is where you’d write your message.

The dimensions for each of the layers can be found in this file.

If you missed how to make this card, here is the video showcasing the birthday version:

So what do you think of the Blended Seasons bundle? Have I convinced you you need this bundle? If so, I’d love if you’d purchase it through my on-line store here. Use Hostess Code W6P6Y3C6 and when you spend $50 (US, prior to S/H and tax) you’ll get a FREE Gift from me! This offer ends tho on August 15 – so hurry!

Next question – this is the second time I’ve done a little mini-series of posts featuring a stamp set or bundle. Do you like that? Or would you prefer the ideas spread out and interspersed with other stamp sets/bundles? I’d love your opinion!!

Bonus Days are going strong! Every $50 (US, prior to S/H and tax) gets you a $5 coupon to use in September!!

I Just Miss You

Hi! Back today with another card featuring the Blended Seasons Bundle which is an exclusive bundle available only this month – of while supplies last. If you haven’t purchased it yet, I highly recommend doing so before it is no longer available. You’ll find it here in my on-line store.

Miss You, Flowers, Blended Seasons, Stampin' Up!, SU!

This card features the flowers that are in the Blended Seasons stamp set. They are stamped in Jet Black StaZon ink on Crumb Cake card stock and colored with Watercolor Pencils – both assortments. The leaves are colored with the Garden Green pencil while the flowers are Flirty Flamingo with highlights of Melon Mambo. The flower centers are Crushed Curry. An Aqua Painter is used to blend the colors. I really love the soft look this card has and think that using Crumb Cake for my neutral layer helped achieve that softness. The sentiment is stamped in Jet Black StaZon as well. A few Basic Adhesive Backed Sequins finishes off the card.

The stamped panel is Crumb Cake measuring 4x 5 1/4″. The base layer is also Crumb Cake and measures 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ – scored at 4 1/4″ and folded in half. This card would be perfect for so many occasions just switch out the sentiment.

I hope you are enjoying the small series of posts featuring the Blended Seasons bundle.

Thanks for stopping by!
