Summer Shadow Pocket

Hi!  How are you?  I was playing around with some Sale-A-Bration products – which are sadly going away at the end of the month and came up with this pocket card to share with you.

Birthday, Pocket Card, Summer Shadows, Stampin' Up!, SU!, #2021SaleABration

Pocket cards are fun to make and relatively quick, too.  The base for this card is Basic Black and measures 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″.  I chose to use just one piece of the Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper (FREE with a $50 purchase until Sept 30 or while supplies last).  The back piece measures 4″ x 5 1/4″ and the front piece measures 4″ x 4 3/4″ – score at 1″ on the 4 3/4″ side and fold down.

Place Tear & Tape on the other 3 sides (not the edge with the score) and adhere to the 4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP.

A piece of Fresh Freesia ribbon – darkened with the Highland Heather Dark Stampin’ Blend is wrapped around the flap and attached on the back.  A smaller piece is then used to create the knot on the front.

The flowers are die cut using the Summer Shadow Dies (Sale-A-Bration item with a $100 purchase) from Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape card stock.  The leaves are die cut from Pear Pizzazz and Garden Green.  The sentiment is stamped in Gorgeous Grape and die cut with the Rectangle Stitched dies.

The insert is a piece of Basic White measuring 3 1/4 x 4 1/2″.

If you haven’t tried a pocket card, give it a shot – I think you’ll find them fun to make.

As I mentioned above, we are winding down Sale-A-Bration – less than 2 weeks to go.  So, head on over to my store, and once you spend $50 (prior to S/H and tax), you’ll get to add a FREE Sale-A-Bration product to your order.   UPDATED:  The Be Dazzled and Summer Shadow Dies have SOLD OUT!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi!  Thanks so much for the feedback on Monday’s card and for the votes.  I will know next week how I did – so there is still time to vote if you haven’t yet.

Today, I am sharing a card using the Encircled in Friendship stamp set with the gorgeous Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper that you can earn FREE with a $50 purchase (prior to S/H and tax) by Sept 30.

Friendship, Thinking of You, Stampin' Up!, SU! #2021AnnualCatalog, #2021SAB

The Beautifully Penned paper is all Black and White and gorgeous patterns.  You can add a touch of color to this paper in many ways:

For my card, I kept it as is and added a touch of color by using Water Color pencils on the flowers.  I love how this card turned out and used it for my September #makeacardsendacard.   If you aren’t familiar with this, once a month on my Facebook Page I ask folks who could use some happy mail to send me a private message with their address and I’d get one out to them.  I am still working on September’s card design – but if you could use a pick-me-up – let me know!  I’d be happy to add you to my list.

The sentiment is stamped in Jet Black StaZon – same as the flowers.  I used the Layering Circle dies to die cut the sentiment and the Basic Black mat.

The base is Thick Basic White – 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″ and folded.  The designer series paper measures 4″ x 5 1/4″.  Basic White is used for the coordinating stamped layer – I did die cut before stamping and used the die to align the stamp in my Stamparatus and then rotated the die cut 4 times to stamp the flower image.

The Matte Black Dots were the perfect touch to finish the card.

I hope you enjoyed today’s card!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi!  Today we are having fun with the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper from Sale-A-Bration!  Just 3 days left to get your FREE pack!

Paper Blooms DSP, Happy Thoughts, Stampin' Up!, SU!, #JanFeb2021SAB

Remember this card?  Well, I used the same concept – just rotated the card to be portrait instead of landscape!  Love this layout – can you tell?  This one uses the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper, Night of Navy, Rococo Rose and Basic White Cardstock.  Love this color combination as well!  The sentiment is from Happy Thoughts in the January-June Mini Catalog.

But, you recall that 4th piece that we didn’t use on the Mushroom Card?  Well, here it is on this one:

Paper Blooms DSP, Happy Thoughts, Stampin' Up!, SU!, #JanFeb2021SAB

A cute way to use it and finish up the inside of the card.

If you purchase the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set ($21), Rococo Rose Card Stock ($8.75), Night of Navy Card Stock ($8.75), Basic White Card stock ($9.75), and Night of Navy Ink Pad ($7.50) – you can get the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper Free and just think of all the cards you could make!

A Touch of Ink

Welcome to Sale-A-Bration week here on the Blog!  Sale-A-Bration is Stampin’ Up!’s biggest promotion of the year and this is the final week to take advantage of it – whether you are shopping, hosting or looking to join my team!

We will kick it off with A Touch of Ink stamp set.  This set can be chosen as a FREE item when you spend $100 (prior to S/H and tax).

Friendship, A Touch of Ink, Stampin' Up!, SU!, Watercolor, #JanFebSAB2021

This two-step stamping set comes with both line art images as shown in this card – that you can color or it has stamps you can ink to fill in the line are for you.  I love having options!

For this card, I chose to use my Watercolor Pencils and a blender pen and loved the finished look.  The images are stamped in Jet Black Stazon ink.  Pencils from both Watercolor Assortments were used – Real Red and Cherry Cobbler for the flower and Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green and Daffodil Delight for the Hummingbird.

Best of all, this set comes with 6 sentiments, too!  You’ll find yourself reaching for this set over and over to create cards for birthdays, thinking of you, or just to say hello.

Did you happen to check out the background?  The paper is from the Oh So Ombre Paper Stack that can be chosen FREE with a $50 purchase!  I ran a piece of the Bermuda Bay Ombre paper through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine with the new Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder from the January-June Mini Catalog.  I love the look and you will, too!

BUT!  This set is exclusive to Sale-A-Bration and after Feb 28, it will no longer be around.  Head on over to my on-line store and when you reach $100 in your shopping bag, add this beautiful set for FREE!

If you are interested in joining my team, you will get 200 6″x6″ Designers Series Paper sheets in your starter kit for FREE!  These patterns will debut in the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog that starts in May.   This is on top of the $125 in product of your choice, business supplies and a FREE past Paper Pumpkin kit!  All of this for just $99 plus tax (Shipping is included!)  JOIN TODAY!

Thanks for stopping by!
