More Tropical Chic Card Ideas

I am still creating beautiful cards with the Stampin’ Up! Tropical Chic stamp set and Tropical Thinlits Dies.

Sometimes when you purchase a stamp set you have just one card in mind to make.  What I am really trying to do is when I purchase stamps I want to be able to make all kinds of cards and paper projects. I am finding out that with this stamp set & thinlits dies its really easy to accomplish what I am trying to do.

I had so much fun designing these cards because I was able to stamp different sayings in the center of the circle that makes this set so versatile for every occasion 🙂

If you love this stamp set and thinlits dies you can order them on my website theislandstamper.stampinup.net 

Until next time my friends,

Beautiful Tropical Chic Wedding Card

Stampin’ Up! Tropical Chic stamp set along with Tropical Thinlits Dies make the most beautiful cards, especially this handmade Wedding Card for our Dear Friends.

I wanted this card to be special so instead of making a traditional card I decided to make a step card.  Once I put it all together, the front panel was too heavy and it wouldn’t stand up and I had to think of a way for it to work.

That’s when I thought of making “kind of an easel” and it worked 🙂

The inside of the card was all hand written but I did layer DSP on the base of the card, then added a white panel on top of that with some stamped fern leaves along the side.

Supplies Used For this Card:

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful You Birthday Card Idea

If you have this stamp set already you know its awesome! and if you don’t have it, I think you should get your next order ready and order Beautiful You 🙂

I had fun making this birthday card because it felt like I made a dress for a paper doll.  Let me explain.  I have so much designer paper that has been discontinued for years that I don’t know what to do with but I watched a video from a fellow Stampin’ Up! demonstrator Ronda Wade and she uses all of her paper to customize envelopes for her cards.  So what I did with this card is use for the envelope flap but also for the dress.

I first stamped the image on the very vanilla cardstock then again on the designer paper and using my paper snips I just cut out the dress and glued it onto the first image.  It was almost like dressing a paper doll.

There are so many fun cards you can make with this great stamp set.  And remember, you can always use old designer paper on envelope flaps (it makes your card look really classy)

Birthday Wishes with “Love What You Do” Stamps

I think I love every stamp set in the new catalog 🙂

Today I want to share with you a birthday card that I made using stamps from the Love What You Do set.

I love the way this card turned out and it really wasn’t hard to make – it kinda was really simple (but we will keep that secret between us).  The reason why it was simple was because I didn’t need any punches, dies or cutting machines.  This was just stamping and anyone can do it!

If you need to make a card for a friend, this would be the perfect stamp set.  To order, you just need to click on the above picture which will take you directly to my shopping website.

Until next time my friends,
