Kintsugi Inspiration

Thursday, April 16, 2026

As I am working on using up my DSP for my Tuesday Stampers I realized that I had a lot of the beautiful KINTSUGI INSPIRATION DSP. I was able to die cut the vases and flower out using the coordinating die set, and then using up some scraps I cut the strips 2" x 3/8". 

I was inspired by a card that I saw on Pinterest, but I chose to make my card a sympathy card and used a retired label die. The Gold Flower Accents are part of the KINTSUGI collection, and these all are still available to purchase in my on line store.

The JOINED TOGETHER 3D embossing folder is currently on the LAST CHANCE LIST and discounted for $8.00

Forever Florals

Wednesday, April 15, 2026

Today's card features the FOREVER FLORALS bundle 

However the Petal Pink DSP is from KINTSUGI INSPIRATIONS

I love the layering labels in this set! If I were to design a stamp or die set, I would make sure it had layering pieces like this.

I sponged a little bit of Petal Pink on the edge of the DSP, and the sentiment was stamped with Crumb Cake.

This card was inspired by Rose Coleman

The new catalog is coming out soon, and I find that at the end of a catalog I end up with so much DSP that is retiring so I wanted to work on using up what I could for my classes.

The FOREVER FLORALS Dies gives you the die to cut out the floral images and the little flower bunches. 

Here is another card using the FOREVER FLORALS Dies/bundle

I love this intricate die! It is cut from CLOUD COVER card stock, with the flower bunches cut from TIMID TIGER and DARLING DUCKLING, and the sentiment is from GRATEFUL BLESSING.

This card was also inspired by Rose Coleman

Beautiful Gallery

Tuesday, April 14, 2026

Another beautiful pack of 6x6 Designer Paper is BEAUTIFUL GALLERY. Check out all the different patterns at stampinup.com

You have seen me use this paper multiple times and I don't want you to miss out on grabbing some of this gorgeous paper. These printed papers make card making super easy.
I cut the designer paper to 5-1/2" x 4-1/4" and put it on a base of BASIC BEIGE card stock 4-1/4" x 11" scored at 5-1/2"

Using the BEAUTIFUL GALLERY Dies, I cut out the large frame from Mossy Meadow card stock and then embossed with the DAMASK embossing folder, then I popped up the frame using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Also from the BEAUTIFUL GALLERY Dies, I cut 2 of the "weeds" from Pecan Pie and 2 of the greenery dies from Mossy Meadow. (you can see these on the right and left inside the frame.

A Basic Beige 3/8" ribbon bow is added with a Mini Glue Dot and 2 of the FLOWER MOTIFS. (I added these after I took this photo)

The sentiment is from BEAUTIFUL MOTIFS and die cut with a small die from the (retired) PERFECTLY PEARS. I always suggest that you use whatever product you have on hand for tags and so forth.

Hey! Check out the new April Product of the Month!! You can get this for $5 when you place an online order of $75 (minimum) 
It's a really cool die called EYELET BLOOMS!!
And just remember for every online order you place over $20 you earn 10% rewards to use on a future purchase.
