Sneak Peek of Hippest Hippos and Hippo Dies

The card I’m sharing with you today is a little sneak peek of two Sale-a-Bration products debuting on July 1st! They are

  • Hippest Hippo Stamp Set #159921 – FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-bration
  • Hippo Dies #159928 – FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-bration

 

 

I started with a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock to the front of the card that I embossed using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. I also added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card. Next, I cut two pieces of Awash in Beauty Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). 

 

Hippest Hippos

 

 

I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock and another, larger circle out of Balmy Blue cardstock. I LOVE that Stampin’ Up! brought back stitched dies!! Love them!!  I layered the two circles together and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the front of the card. I used the Stylish Shapes Dies again to cut the sentiment piece and then stamped the sentiment in Balmy Blue ink using the Hippest Hippos stamp set. 

 

 

I stamped the cute hippo in Memento Ink onto Basic White cardstock and then colored her using Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends and for the flower I used the Dark Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blend.  I cut the hippo out using the Hippo Dies. I adhered one end of the sentiment behind the hippo and then adhered both to the stitched circle. This card came together very quickly and I just love the cute hippo (there are two more hippos in the stamp set and four sentiments).

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper

Today I have four cards to share with you. After making the first card, I decided to try several different color combinations using Butterfly Kisses 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies.

 

For this first card, I used the Fern 3D Embossing Folder for the first layer. I layered the Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper with Parakeet Party cardstock (one of the new In Colors) and the squares were cut out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. The sentiment was stamped in Starry Sky ink using the stamp set, Cup of Tea and also cut out with the Stylish Shapes Dies. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the Parakeet Party square. To complete the card, I added three Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the front of the card and a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Bundle Alert: The Cup of Tea Bundle (currently on the Low Inventory List) includes the stamp set, Cup of Tea, and the Teacup Dies. 

 

 

 

For this next card, I used Fresh Freesia ink for the sentiment and added three 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots

 

 

For the next two cards I used Fresh Freesia cardstock and Fresh Freesia ink for the sentiment.  The first card was made using the Fern 3D Embossing Folder, just like the first two cards but for the second one I used the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. Because of the size of the embossing folder, the entire piece of cardstock isn’t embossed but I felt it looked fine if the unembossed side was over to the left. For both cards, I added three 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds to the front. 

 

 

 

 

You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds Bundle

Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes and the Sweet Songbirds Bundle which includes the Sweet Songbirds stamp set and the Songbird Builder Punch

 

 

 

Tea Boutique

 

I cut a piece of Orchid Oasis cardstock and placed it inside the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.  Then I layered it onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. Next, I wrapped a piece of  Starry Sky Metallic Woven Ribbon around the cardstock layer and tied a bow over on the left-hand side.  I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it the front of a Tea Boutique Card Base. 

 

 

 

I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut a circle and the sentiment piece out of Basic White cardstock. Then on another piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the bird using Orchid Oasis ink and the stamp set, Sweet Songbirds, and punched it out using the Songbird Builder Punch. I stamped the wing also in Orchid Oasis ink and punched it out. I used Pumpkin Pie cardstock for the bird’s beak and used the punch for that too. I adhered the wing and beak to the bird but before adhering the birdie to the circle, I decided where I wanted to place her and then stamped her feet in Memento Ink.  I also used Memento Ink for her eyes.

 

 

 

I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the circle and adhered it on top of the ribbon.

I stamped the sentiment in Orchid Oasis ink using the stamp set, Sweet Songbirds onto the sentiment piece. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it below the bird.  To complete the card, I added a Matte Decorative Dot at each end of the sentiment.

Stampin’ Up! Limited Edition

The card I have to share with you today features the stamp set, Limited Edition and Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper (I can’t get enough of this paper). 

 

 

 

I started with a base of Pool Party cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then I placed a piece of Basic White cardstock inside one of the Elegant 3D Embossing Folders and ran it through the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine. I then adhered it to a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and placed it on the front of the card. 

 

 

 

Next, I layered a piece of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock.  I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card 

 

 

 

I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Limited Edition in Fresh Freesia ink and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added adhesive just to the corner of the circle (the part that would be sitting on the Designer Series Paper layer) and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete the card, I added an In Color Opal Round below the sentiment and added a piece of Basic White cardstock inside the card.
