Flower Cart Mother’s Day Card Idea

Hello My Friends – I know that I am posting this Mother’s Day card late, but I had to make sure that it was delivered before I posted 🙂

This card was created using the Stampin’ Up! Flower Cart Stamp Set and Flower Cart Die Set. I also used an old small flower paper punch and the green leaves from a discontinued set called Beautiful Bouquet to give it dimension and make the flower pop off the page. The Basic White Circle was cut using the Deckled Circles Dies.

For the Inside I used the stamps in the flower cart set with the coordinating dies along with some stitched dies.

The colors used are Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Flirty Flamingo and Melon Mambo. Pecan Pie for the cart along with gold for the wheels.

Hope you all had a wonderful day celebrating the Mothers in your life.

Until next time my friends,

Enjoy the Sunshine!

Happy Cinco de Mayo

I hope you are all doing well on this Festive Sunday.

Today I want to share a card that I made as a Thank You Note for a friend who sent us some New Mexico Green Chili Seeds to plant in Florida.

I love this stamp set but unfortunately it has been retired. This set was created by one of Stampin’ Up! Million Sales Achiever Erica C. and I think it was the best stamp set ever. That could be because I love all kinds of Mexican Food and everything that goes along with it 🙂

I had to white out the inside because I forgot to take the picture before I wrote my note. When I lived in New Mexico I went to a big stamp show and they had the NM Zia stamp and I thought that would make the perfect part of my inside greeting for our NM friend.

Just take a look at how good the chili seeds grew. We started them indoors in our Idoo hydroponic garden then transferred to outdoor planters.

Can you see those chilis? We were excited and they tasted yummy!!!

Have a Happy Cinco de Mayo

Until next time my friends,

Enjoy the Sunshine!

Sweet Citrus Handmade Card Idea

You name the citrus fruit and you will be able to make a card with this Stamp & Die set from Stampin’ Up! called Sweet Citrus. For the cocktail glass I used the stamp & die from Nothing’s Better Than bundle and the Cheers is from an oldy but my go to set called Happy Hour.

This card was made using Granny Apple Green and Old Olive inks and DSP. I have been going through all of my Designer Series Paper and I found a fun design with the main color of Pumpkin Pie and another Paper with Grapefruit Grove. These colors will be the next I choose to create more cards. I also found matching ribbon 🙂

Until next time my friends,

Enjoy the Sunshine!

Creating Any Occasion Cards with Stampin’ Up!

Lately I’ve been creating cards without putting a sentiment on the cover and just stamping it on the inside of the card. Doing it this way the recipient can keep the card out past the occasion if they like the card and want to show it off.

I’ve also been using my Designer Series Papers that I forget to use OR think its too pretty and don’t want to use it. Well those days are over I am using all of my supplies. It’s actually like going shopping in your own craft room with the exception of having to pay for it again 🙂

I used a retired die set called Pierced Blooms from Stampin’ Up! to make this card. In the current catalog there is a new die set called Paper Florist that you can use to make a similar card. I’m really happy how this birthday card turned out.

Until next time my friends,

Enjoy the Sunshine!

Happy Easter

Today I want to share the Easter card that I made for my mother-In-law. I didn’t want to put the sentiment on the front of the card just in case she wanted to keep it out after Easter.

I have so many beautiful spring color patterned paper, that I decided to make 1/2″ strips and use a few different colors and it turned out pretty nice 🙂

The butterflies are from the Best Butterflies Bundle which included Best Butterfly Stamps and Build a Butterfly Dies

As you know the current Stampin’ Up! Catalog is coming to a close on May 1st and the Best Butterfly Stamp set has already sold out and no backorders will be taken, BUT the dies are still available as of me sending out this post.

If you haven’t looked at the catalog in awhile or you have some stamps on your wish list, place your orders while they are still available. Inventory is getting real low on the favorites and like I said items once they are sold out, they are gone.

The new Annual Catalog goes live on May 2nd, 2023 and runs through till April 30th, 2024. It is filled with Wonderful Stamps, Dies, Paper and Embellishments. I can’t wait to share them with you.

Until Next Time My Friends,

Enjoy The SUnshine!

Joan 🙂
