Sweet Strawberry Birthday Card Idea

Hope you are enjoying your summer.  I can’t believe that summer is almost over, well the calendar says that, not the weather in Florida.

I created this Birthday Card using the  Sweet Strawberry bundle that is found in the Annual Stampin’ Up! Catalog.

This bundle  comes with the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and Strawberry Builder Punch.

I just love how yummy and fresh those strawberries look, and how simple they are to make using the Two-Step stamping technique.

I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink for the outline of the strawberries and Garden Green Classic Stampin’ Pad Ink for the outline of the leaves.

Then for the second step I used Poppy Parade Classic Stampin’ Pad Ink for the strawberries and Granny Apple Green Classic Stampin’ Pad for the leaves.

When I was done with all of the stamping, I used the Strawberry Builder Punch and punched all the images out and using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Stampin’ Seal Adhesive, I put the card together.

For the final touch, I decorated the envelope to coordinate with the card by covering the flap of the envelope with the same Designer Series Paper that was used on the birthday card.

I have a couple more ideas that are in the works for this stamp set that will also include the Measure Of Love stamp set that is on page 32 of the annual catalog.  As soon as I finish I will share.

You can find this great bundle along with so many more fantastic stamp sets and bundles and Designer Series Paper in the Annual Catalog and the Mini Catalog.

Don’t forget about Sale-A-Bration and you can earn FREE products from placing orders from both catalogs.  You can see all the FREE products by clicking on this link from one of my previous post called It’s Sale-A-Bration Time.

Until next time my friends,

Enjoy the SUnshine!

Penguin Place Birthday Card Idea

It is still super hot here in North Florida so I thought I would try to make myself feel a little cooler so I started stamping some really super cute Penguins.

Was I correct in saying that they are super cute? And I even added some cuteness on the inside of the card

I fell in love with this adorable bundle that is in our Mini Catalog called the Penguin Place Bundle  Besides the cute images in this set, the sayings are even better and can be used for any kind of card.

This bundle has a stamp set  called Penguin Place along with a Penguin Builder Punch

I also used some FREE Designer Series Paper Called Penguin Playmates, along with Fresh Freesia cardstock.

Remember that Sale-A-Bration is from August 3rd and ends at the end of September.  If you see something that you like please don’t wait just in case it sells out and is not available anymore.

Birthday Card Idea Using Counting Sheep

I have been creating some really fun cards using the FREE stamps, dies, and designer series paper that I earned with my Sale-a-bration order.

This fun fold box card was created using the FREE Counting Sheep stamp set and also the Free Sheep Dies.

I also used the cloud stencil that was in the March Paper Pumpkin to decorate the box card.

I just love these Sheep Dies and only used 3 of them on this box card.  I can’t wait to create a card with a fence or that flag reminds me of a golf course so maybe I will make some golfing sheep ha-ha-ha.

Remember you can place an order from the Annual and/or Mini Catalog to be able to take part in Sale-A-Bration and get yourself some of these great FREE products.  In my last post I showed all of the great products that we get to choose from.  To see them all just click here FREE gifts.

I will be sharing more cards that I created using some of the designers series paper that is available in the Sale-A-Bration brochure.

Until next time my friends,

Enjoy the SUnshine!

Birthday Card and Gift Box Idea using Stampin’ Up!s Pansy Patch

Happy Wednesday and Happy Summer!

I’m happy the calendar now says its summer because living in Florida it kinda feels like summer arrived a few months ago already.

Before I get into my birthday card and gift box idea I need to share with you that Tomorrow Only June 24th Stampin’ Up! has FREE Shipping on all orders over $50 for products before shipping and tax would be calculated.

OK, so now that you know about tomorrows free shipping, Today I want to share with you a birthday card and gift box that I created using the Pansy Patch stamp set with coordinating dies and Designer Series Paper.

Stampin’ Up! has this awesome Pansy Patch stamp set with coordinating dies and designers series paper.  You can purchase these products separately or the entire suite called Pansy Petals.

The box is a Mini Paper Pumpkin Box that I decorated using everything in the Pansy Petals suite along with Pacific Coast, Fresh Freesia and Basic White cardstock.

There are so many different ways to use this set.  You can stamp each image with any color from our classic Stampin’ Ink Pad (since flowers come in all colors) then using the die just cut one image or in this card example I used the dies and cut each piece out in basic white cardstock then sponged the colors for a shaded look.  I also used this same technique in a post last month called Pansy Patch Garden.

I love using the new Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, it doesn’t take up a lot of room on your work area which makes it so easy to make these cute pansy flowers.

I will also be showing you examples of just stamping with this wonderful stamp set in my next post.

Until next time my friends,

Enjoy the SUnshine!
