What better way to celebrate this Easter card than using the adorable Easter Friends Stamp Set.

 

I am in love with the Bunny, but I am obsessed with the Chicks!!  I absolutely love the realistic look of these images and they are so easy to color with our Stampin’ Blend Markers. I used the Daffodil Delight Combo for the Body and Pale Papaya for his beak and feet.

This Fun Fold is one of my favorites and when I saw this stamp set I knew it was perfect for the Happy Chick Image.

Of course, I could not resist completing the inside of the card with the baby Chick.

PROJECT MEASUREMENTS: 
  • Card Base 5 1/2″ 6 3/4″ Daffodil Delight TIP: The Strip you have from cutting down to 6 3/4″ Will be your Flap Piece

Sweet as a Peach Fun Layout Card

In Today’s Project, I am sharing a fun Layout Card Using the Sweet as a Peach Bundle.  This is probably one of my favorite Bundles from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.

What I love about this layout is that it really showcases the amazing coordinating  You’re a Peach Designer Paper.  This layout gives it a different take on your traditional card.

 

 

Now the Sweet as a Peach Bundle is part of the Savings are In Bloom Special in my Online Store from March 1-30, 2022. This Bundle is typically 10% off in the Annual Catalog, but this month is on sale for 20%.  Now what I am gathering this bundle might be on the upcoming Retire List that goes live on March 23, 2022.

These Bundles will probably go fast, so if this is something that I have inspired you to add to your crafting supplies, I have added to the bottom of this post a shopping list of all the supplies used in today’s project for an easy shopping experience for you.

Luv 2 Stamp Blog Hop- Celebrating Women

 

Welcome to the Luv 2 Stamp Group’s 2022 Blog Hop! We are excited to share projects with you this year, we hope to inspire you to create beautiful new projects. Each month we will have a different theme based on the next month’s celebrations using Stampin’ Up! products.

When you have completed each post, be sure to scroll down to the bottom and you will see the list of Blog Hop Participants. You may either click on their name to go to their post or click the NEXT button.  Happy Crafting and I hope you enjoy this month’s theme: CELEBRATING WOMEN

In today’s project, since the theme was CELEBRATING WOMEN I could not think of someone so deserving than my late mom Diane.  She is the inspiration behind today’s project.

Quilted layout card

 

My mom absolutely loved to quilt.  In fact, the one thing she loved to make were potholders.  Since she also loved to cook, she would love to make potholders for family and friends.  We also loved doing craft fairs together.  See the photo below of the last craft fair we did together in 2015.

What I absolutely love about this layout you can pretty much do any of our amazing Designer Papers.  It is a fabulous way to use up those scrap pieces you have lying around.  The size of the squares I am using are 1 1/4″ x 1 1/4″.  The paper I used in this project is the Symbols of Fortune paper.  I absolutely love this paper. PRO TIP:  You will want to layout ahead of time like the sample below and you will also want to use Liquid Glue to adhere down to allow wiggle room.

 

 

PROJECT MEASUREMENTS: 
  • Card Base Calypso Coral 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ Scored at 4 1/4″ or Folded in Half
  • Basic White Matte Piece 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Symbols of Fortune DSP  1 1/4″ x 1  1/4″ (you will need 6 of each.  Although you will be only using 4 of one)
  • Parisian Flourish 3D Embossing Folder 
  • Sentiment from Blessings from Home
  • Label me Lovely Punch
  • Finished off with Rhinestones color with Calypso Coral Blends

Love and Happiness Bundle Simple Layout Card

In Today’s project, I am using the Love and Happiness Bundle to create a simple layout card that you can make multiples of.  You can find this Hybrid Bundle on Page 11 from the January-June, 2022 Mini Catalog.

Stampin Up Love and Happiness Hybrid Bundle

 

I absolutely love this Bundle for 2 reasons:

  • Look at the amazing sentiments in this Stamp Set.  I honestly have been waiting for a LOVE Stamp Set that covers everything.  Wedding, Anniversary, Engagement, Valentine’s Day, Just Because I love you all in one!!!  I love the different fonts and sizes.  It’s absolutely perfect.

Love and Happiness Bundle By Stampin Up

  • The 2nd reason I loved this bundle is that it is a Hybrid Bundle.  What does that mean?  Stampin Up! came up with a brilliant embossing folder called the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder that can cut and emboss at the same time which is pretty amazing if you ask me.

In Today’s project, I wanted to create an Engagement card for my niece and with the theme on the blog hop being LOVE it is the perfect Bundle for this card.

Love and Happiness Engagement Card

 

In this project, I am using the Love and Happiness Hybrid Bundle.  What does Hybrid mean?  Well with Stampin’ Up! they have created a bundle where it cuts the image and embosses at the same time that is called Hybrid.  So in this bundle, you will get that bonus of receiving an embossing folder at the same time.

Love and Happiness Hybrid Embossing Folder

 

To add a little something extra I cut strips of Basic Black cardstock (1) 3/4″ x 5 1/4″ and (1) 1/2″ x 5 3/4″ and then finished off with 3 Basic Rhinestones.

 

 

 

PROJECT MEASUREMENTS:
  • Cardbase Basic Gray 4 1/4″ x 11″ Scored at 5 1/2″ or folded in half

Sweet Conversations Simple Layout Card

Today’s project is a simple layout card featuring the Sweet Conversations Bundle from the Stampin’ Up 2022 Jan-June Mini Catalog.  Valentine’s Day was my dad’s favorite holiday.  He was such a romantic.  Valentine’s Day has become one of my favorites as well, so when I saw this bundle, it immediately put me in my happy place.

The Gingham Embossing Folder is the perfect touch to add some texture to your project.  It has become one of my favorites from the mini catalog.

This simple layout works well with multiple stamp sets, but I loved it especially with this Bundle  Don’t forget to finish the project off with your matching Envelope.
