Luv to Stamp Blog Hop Feeling Grateful

Welcome to the Luv 2 Stamp Group’s 2021 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: THANKSGIVING

I have really become obsessed with the Intricate Dies from the Gorgeous Leaves Bundle so when this month’s theme came up it was a no-brainer for me. We have had some cooler temps in the San Francisco Bay Area so I figured if I continue playing with Fall colors and bundles, it might help bring the cooler temps more frequently.

The Colors used for the leaves are Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, and Coastal Cabana. The Sentiment used came from Sparkle of Season.  I am completely Grateful for those supporting me, so I thought it was perfect for my customer thank you cards and to randomly send these out to my amazing friends that support me each and every day. To finish off my card I used the 2020-2022 Square Gems and of course what fall card would not be complete with linen thread 

If you are looking for an easy and simple way to create a perfect banner, The Tailored Tag Punch is the perfect tool to have in your craft supplies.

PROJECT MEASUREMENTS: 
  • Just Jade Card Base: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ Scored at 4 1/4″ or Folded in Half

Luv to Stamp Blog Hop Halloween Edition

Welcome to the Luv 2 Stamp Group’s 2021 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: HALLOWEEN. 

For this project, I used the Frightfully Cute Bundle from the Stampin’ Up! 2021 July-December Mini Catalog.  This has become one of my favorite Halloween sets this season.  The dies that coordinate with this bundle are absolutely incredible.  I love using the Black Glitter Paper to add a little extra glam.  I used that for my spider web, tree, witches hat,  and fence.  The Blending Brushes make the perfect spooky background.  If you would like to see my other spooky background project using the same bundle click HERE.

In the photo below I included some fun tips for how to add adhesive quick and easy to intricate dies, and a fun way to add a little something extra to the witches hat.

PROJECT MEASUREMENTS:
  • Basic Black Cardbase 5 1/2″ x 8″ Scored at 4 1/4″ or folded in half
  • Beautifully Penned Designer Paper 2 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ (Please note that is a Limited edition product until September 30, 2021 or while supplies last)
  • Layering Circle Dies – Largest Regular Circle, 2nd Largest Scalloped, 2nd Smallest for Sentiment
  • Finished off with Basic Jewel Rhinestones. 

 

Thank you so much for stopping by our Hop today.  Be sure to hop with my other crafty friends for that perfect Halloween Inspiration.

Simple Book Binding Card

I had so much fun creating this simple Book Binding Card yesterday on my Weekly Facebook Crafting Wednesday’s Live.

 

My cards today I used the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle paired with the GORGEOUS Blackberry Beauty Designer Paper.   This paper is so stunning in person and makes the perfect Fall Card,

The sentiments in this stamp set send the perfect message to make anyone smile.

What I absoloultely love about the Book Binding Fold, you can easily mass produce many cards in a timely manner.  This fold just adds a little extra to your basic fold and showcases our amazing designer paper.

 

PROJECT MEASUREMENTS:

  • Cardbase Rich Razzleberry 4 1/4″ x 11″  Scored at 5 1/2″ and 6 3/4″
  • 4″x4″ Blackberry Beauty Designer Paper of your choice
  • 1″ x 4″ Blackberry Beauty Desiger Paper (Same Pattern as 4″x4″)
  • 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ Blackberry Beauty Designer Paper (I used a more solid pattern to coordinate nicely with Dies)
  • About a 3/4″ x 3 1/2″ Strip of Be Dazzling SAB Paper (ONLY AVAIL UNTIL 9/30)  Plus a Basic White Scrap to stamp sentiment on
  • 4″x4″ Basic White Cardstock for inside of card and finish off with 3/4″ x 4″ strip of coordinating designer paper (This is optional)

 

INSTRUCTIONS: 

  • Fold Card base in half and glue the center together flat to allow you card to open like a book
  • Add Layers of designer paper to the front of the card base and tie Gold 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon on the bookbinding edge
  • Stamp Sentiment on Basic White Strip and adhere to Be Dazzling Paper.
  • I used the 2 detailed pumpkin dies from the Detailed Pumpkin Dies Set and cut out in coordinating colors.  I used Cinamon Cider and Cajun Craze for the larger pumpkins and Blackberry Bliss and Cajin Craze for the smaller pumpkins
  • Add smaller 3/4″ x4″ strip to 4″x4″ Basic White and adhere to inside of card.
  • I finished off with adding the Brushed Metalic Dots

I absolutely loved this paper so much and thought that the Gold Shimmer RIbbon is such a great addition I thought I would some samples from a class I recently took with my friends Patty Bennett and Melanie Hockin
