Plentiful Plants

Yesterday I shared with you a Case the Caddy card using the BLOOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED Designer Paper. I had quite a bit of other hand cut pieces left and I wanted to use them up. I did a little searching on Pinterest, and I used a variety of layout ideas and gave them my own twist.

I made three of this first card to send out to my 3 sisters in the new year. One sister lives in Arizona. Last year at this time we were spending a one-week trip to be with them. The stamp set is called LOVELY YOU.

I used the new stamp set FRIENDLY HELLO from the upcoming January-February 2022 Sale a bration brochure. And there is an inside sentiment that says "Hope you have the best birthday"

Card #3 I only made one of these because I ran out of the plant on the right. Used the MACRAME' 3D embossing folder which coordinates so perfectly with the plant/succulent theme.

Card #4 is super simple and I used another new stamp set called HAPPY AND HEARTFELT which you will find in the January to June Mini Catalog. I must say that I am very happy with some new sets that have great sentiments, and cool fonts. The 3D embossing folder is called BRICK & MORTAR and is one of my absolute favorites!!

I seemed to have a lot of the climbing vines plants left so for this card I teamed it up with another cut out piece to give it some height and I love the character it gives. The "Thank You" comes from a previous Sale a bration set called HEARTFELT WISHES.

Remember all of these cards were made with only the Bloom Where You Are Planted Designer Paper, and I never had to use the PLENTIFUL PLANTS stamp set. Of course, I used a variety of sentiments from other stamp sets to create what I would use the most or what I thought would sell the best.

More Christmas Cards

 It's nearly Christmas and I am pretty tired of making Christmas cards.

I have mailed out or delivered all of my cards. I've sold a bunch and donated some too.

However... I have some of Stampin' Up!'s gorgeous designer papers left and so many great ideas I wanted to try.

I figured since I need cards for NEXT year Christmas (and we start making Christmas cards in July), I could at least give some of these a try and see if I want to use them for next year.

Card #1 was inspired by Tracy Bradley

The Snowflakes Dies are so pretty - I especially like the framed die.

What I changed up: I changed up the sentiment because I am not a Happy Holiday's kind of gal. I much prefer to say Merry CHRISTmas.

I love the WHIMSY & WONDER Specialty Paper but I'm afraid that it is no longer available. I hope you were able to grab some before it was too late.

This second card was inspired by France Martin. The only thing I changed up was the size. To get a bigger bang for my buck I cut my card base down to 8" x 5-1/2" and scored it at 4". Therefore I could cut my designer paper at 5-1/2" x 4" and get 6 cards per 12x12 sheet of paper. Had I cut it the way she suggested I would've only gotten 4 cards per 12 x 12 sheet of paper. You can check out her cards HERE

The INSPIRING CANOPY DIES are found in the annual catalog so they are not in danger of retiring just yet. Same thing for THE BEAUTY OF THE EARTH Designer Paper. This is such good news.

Be Jolly

 Gracie came over the other day wanting to make some Christmas cards for her teachers.

I'm so thankful that she is liking her teachers at this phase in her life because it hasn't alway been that way.

She liked the Be Jolly stamp set with Santa so we went with that. She made 2 of each, and for the rest of the cards she chose some previously made ones that I had on hand.

Thanks to Pinterest we found a couple super cute ideas

This first card was inspired by Sharon Burkert

The stamp set Be Jolly and the Heartfelt Wishes (for the "Merry Christmas") are both on the retiring list so if you like what you see, don't delay, place your online order ASAP!

And this second card is specifically for her music teacher and her accompaniest. It was inspired by Leah Fedynak

Shoebox Swaps Part 2

Here are some more shoebox swaps from our Stampin' Retreat

Chris used the Delivering Cheer stamp set for a fun wintry birthday card

I love the added twigs and weeds

Guest Stamper, Sue

My guest stamper today is Sue

Sue shared the cards that she prepared for her most recent card class

Feels Like Home

Welcoming Woods

For this card the EVERGREEN FOREST embossing folder was used with the 2021–2023 IN COLOR SHIMMER VELLUM (evergreen color) and this is the result! pretty cool!!

This card was made using the Baby Wipe Technique and the GORGEOUS LEAVES Stamp Set

Hand Penned Petals

Many of her cards she had a variety of sentiments along with punches for the gals to choose from.

Heartfelt Wishes Stamp Set with the Merry Melody Embossing folder and the Christmas Pinecone Dies.

Timeless Tropical Stamp Set

After The Storm Stamp Set with Evergreen Stamp Set

Arctic Bears Stamp Set and Bears Dies - she made a cool Aurora Borealis 

Artistic Dies

You can see that she taught them several variations of how to sponge color onto their cards using the new Blending Brushes. It's always fun to learn a new technique or be refreshed on an old technique like the Baby Wipe Technique.
