Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper

Today’s cards combine a retiring product with a new product!

 

 

To create both of my cards, I used Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper, a beautiful paper from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. It’s one of many retiring products from this catalog and is available while supplies last or May 3, 2021.  I combined it with a new product from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog (debuting on May 4, 2021) called the Scalloped Contours Dies. Both the sentiment piece and the one it’s layered on are from this set of dies. For the sentiment I used the stamp set Vine Design (from the January – June 2021 Mini Catalog) and stamped it in Memento Ink.

 

Scalloped Contours Dies Stampin Up

 

For this next card, I used all the same products as the card above but used Garden Green cardstock for the layer underneath the sentiment and I stamped the sentiment in Green Green Ink. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop up both the sentiment piece and the layer underneath it. The base of each card is Thick Basic White cardstock.

Another Use for the Stampin’ Up! Stamparatus Bag

Today I’m sharing another use for the retiring Craft & Carry Stamparatus Bag that I found out quite by accident! If you have an Erin Condren planner, it fits perfectly inside this bag! 

 

 

 

The bag is meant for storing your Stamparatus but I’ve used it for many different purposes such as keeping Stampin’ Blends inside along with a project I’m working on.  I just got back from visiting my mom for 6 weeks and right before leaving I was dashing around picking up the last of my things and thought, hmm, I wonder if my planner will fit inside and it did! I did a little happy dance right there on the spot!

 

 

There’s a nice pocket on the outside front and inside there are several pockets to store notes, stickers or pens for your planner. One of the pockets on the inside (shown below) has a Velcro closing so your things will stay nice and secure. The other side of the bag has two pockets. 

 

 

 

It’s a great little bag and it’s 60% off! It will be available until May 3, 2021 or while supplies last! If you’d like to purchase one of these bags, you’ll find it HERE at my Stampin’ Up! online store.

Place a minimum $50 order at my Stampin’ Up! online store using the host code JZFUSTEC and as a thank you, you’ll receive my Pansy Petals Card Sampler with includes 6 card kits (2 each of three cards) with envelopes and a PDF Tutorial with instructions, pictures and a supply list.

Please note:  This Card Sampler is a little bit different than what I usually offer. All three cards are the SAME design but I’ve used different colors for each of the three cards. The cards were all made using our Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper and the base of each card features one of our new In Colors (the cardstock and Designer Series Paper will be available for purchase on May 4, 2021 when the new Annual catalog goes live). 

Demonstrators were able to preorder a limited amount of new products this month.  I wanted to feature new paper for this Sampler and in order to make sure I’d have enough supplies on hand, I created the same design. So please be aware that all three cards are the same but different!

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Perennials

Today’s cards features the stamp set, Pretty Perennials and a little sneak peek of one of the new In Colors, Polished Pink.  This color will be available on May 4th when the new Annual Catalog goes live! I also made the card in Melon Mambo so you can compare the colors but for this first card I used Polished Pink. 

 

 

First, I stamped the sentiment in Memento Ink and I used the Stamparatus because it allows you to stamp in the same place multiple times for a nice bold image. If you’ve never heard of a Stamparatus and would like to learn more, please check out this video.

The large flower images were stamped in Polished Pink ink and then I used Bermuda Bay ink for the smaller flowers. I used Memento ink for the center of all the flowers 

 

Pretty Perennials

 

I adhered the stamped piece to Basic Black cardstock and then adhered that to a base of Polished Pink. For this next card, I stamped the large flowers in Melon Mambo ink and stamped the smaller flowers in Daffodil ink.  I used Basic Black cardstock, as I did on the card above, and adhered it to a Melon Mambo card base. 

 

 

 

Imagine all the possibilities with this stamp set! 

 

Supply List

Please note: Until the new Annual Catalog goes live on May 4th, I’m unable to link to the Polished Pink products. Here are the item numbers that can be used beginning on May 4th:

  • Polished Pink cardstock #155710
  • Polished Pink Stampin Pad #155712

Stampin’ Up! Simply Citrus All Inclusive Card Kit

Happy Monday! 

For those of you who look forward to my Friday Tutorials, I want to apologize for not having a tutorial for you on Friday.  I was under the weather for a few days last week and late Friday, I realized what day it was (why can’t I keep track of the days??) and that I’d forgotten to create a tutorial.  I’m sorry for any disappointment. 

Today I’m sharing the RETIRING Simply Citrus All-Inclusive Card Kit.  This kit contains all the materials you’ll need to create 15 cards – 3 each of 5 different designs.  It also includes a stamp set, a Night of Navy Stampin’ Spot (small inkpad) and envelopes! It’s available while supplies last! 

 

 

 

I have three of the five cards to share with you. You can assemble the cards exactly as suggested or do your own thing! I made a few slight changes to my cards.  The card bases are preprinted so you simply fold on the score line, stamp your sentiment and begin adhering all the pieces. (I used Memento ink on the first card before I realized a stamp pad was included – the other two cards were made with Night of Navy ink). 

 

 

The colors used in this set are Calypso Coral, Garden Green, Just Jade, Mango Melody, Night of Navy and white. 

 

 

A printed cardboard box is included along with a clear block, flowers, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Glue Dots and twine. Everything you’ll need is included in the kit.  Once you’ve made all the cards, you’ll still have a great stamp set to use over and over again! 

 

 

Aren’t these envelopes so pretty?

 

 

It’s so nice to sit down and have everything you need to create 15 cards. It’s perfect for someone who’s new to stamping or the advanced stamper!
