Simple Template Card

I created this Simple Template Card using the Gallery Blooms stamp set from Stampin’ Up!  This simple template card is video 1 of a Series that I am going to be called Template Thursday with Tammy. This template was originated from Splitcoaststampers. I absolutely love a good template, especially when I get in a creative rut.

There are so many amazing templates out there, whether you are doing one from the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog, Mojo Monday like I did last week, or Splitcoaststampers like I did today.

 

This Sketch can be found on Splitcoaststampers

 

I used the Gallery Blooms stamp set, and the More Messages for my sentiment.

Welcome Easter

Hello my Crafting Friends!!  Welcome back to my blog.  It is so hard to believe that Easter is just a few days away!!!  I know with all the craziness that is going on in the world right now with COVID-19. This is certainly not going to be the normal Easter that many of us are used to.

For this project today I decided to get out my Stampin’ Up! Welcome Easter set.  I wanted to create something for my friends that have little ones at home. This set brings a smile to my face seeing the adorable little characters.

 

For the Easter Project, I wanted to add some texture for the background, as well as a cute, spring daisy flower.  I used the Basket Weave Embossing Folder and the medium Daisy Punch.  For a more full look I doubled up on the flower and off set them with a glue dot.

In both projects I used the 2″ Circle Punch along with the 2nd largest scalloped Layering Circle Die Cut.

What I love about the Welcome Easter set, is it’s versatility. This is such a cute Easter set, but also a sweet way to welcome a little one.

Easter Card Measurements:

  • Thick Whisper White Card Base 4 1/4 x 11 Folded in half)
  • Daffodil Delight Layer one 4 1/8 x 5 3/8
  • Whisper White Embossed layer 4 x 5 1/4
  • Stamped Image on 2″ Circle Punch, Layered onto 2nd Largest Scalloped Layering Die with Stampin Dimensional
  • Stamped Happy Easter Sentiment and fussy cut out with my snips

Easter Promise Simple Stamping Card

Today’s Project I decided to use the Stampin’ Up! Easter Promise set.  I decided to use the simple stamping technique to create something simple and basic for my friends to be able to do at home with their kids.  I love that this is a great Easter set with beautiful fonts, inside/outside sentiments, and floral/cross images. It’s a great set to add to your stash for its’ simplicity.

Easter Promise is the perfect Easter set for keeping things simple. By having the perfect sentiments for both the inside/outside of the card as well as lovely flowers to be able to color.

I stamped both the sentiment and the images in Momento Tuxedo Black ink. Then I quickly shaded in the sentiment with Light Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends.  When coloring the flowers, I used both Dark and Light Highland Heather. For stems using Light Granny Apple Green. And the cross using Dark Daffodil Delight.  If you love to color and and blend while you are coloring, our Stampin Blends are the perfect way to go!!

I Miss Your Face

While many of us can’t be together with all of our loved ones, I decided to send out some love in the mail today to my family and friends.  I have found that it has really helped me get through these long days of the shelter-in-place situation.  This sentiment pretty much sums up how we are all feeling, don’t you think?

I created these cards with the Tags in Bloom Stamp Set from the 2nd release in the Sale-A-Bration catalog that sadly ends tomorrow March 31, 2020.  I also used the Painted Labels Dies (151605) along with the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper (151324).

PROJECT MEASUREMENTS:

  • Card Base Color of your choice to compliment Paper:  (Pictured above: Thick Whisper White, Hightland Heather, Granny Apple Greetn)    –  4 1/4 x 11 folded or scored at 5 1/2 per
  • Designer Series Paper of your choice – 4 x 5 1/4
  • Circle Punch for Sentiment 2″
  • 1/2 x 4 Strip if you would like to add strip to front

Fun Z Fold for one of my favorite Holidays!! Valentine’s Day

i absolutely love making fun fold cards.  I usually keep things pretty simple, but I always forget about stepping outside the box sometimes.

It is hard to believe Valentine’s Day is just around the corner.  We just took down our Christmas Tree last week!!!!  Who is with me?  So I decided to dive in with this adorable Heartfelt Bundle of products from the new 2020 Spring/Summer Mini catalog.  This is a fun way to use your products to create multiples from the same card if you need to mass produce something.

Z-Fold Valentine's Day Card

Heartfelt Z Fold Card

Let’s start off with the card reccipe:

  • I used Whisper White Thick (But regular Whisper White will be just fine) :  9 3/4″ x 4 1/4″
    • Score at 3 1/4″ and 6 1/2″ (or if it is easier, 3 1/4″ from each end)
  • Real Red:  5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″
  • From the Heart DSP:  (2 pieces) 3 1/4  x 4 1/4″ or if you want more of a white trim 3×4 would look great too.

 

  • Option 1

The Suite comes with the most beautiful DSP Paper that you can use these adorable punches to punch out the hearts in the DSP.

Option 2

Another fun option is to use the heart out of the adorable Heartfelt Stamp Set by stamping them out first then punching.

I hope you enjoy this fun project.  Valentine’s Day is such a special day for me.  As a little girl my dad made it super special for my mom and I.  It was his favorite Holiday along with Christmas.  Even as a little girl I loved hand making my classroom cards.  I wish they had Stampin Up! when I was younger.  Crayola Markers, Construction Paper, Stencils and Scissors were my best friends.

  • Heartfelt Bundle #153775
  • From My Heart Specialty Designer Paper #151189
