kids – Creative Juice by Loni

For our March New at SU! Blog Hop, we are bringing BACKGROUNDS to the front and center! You are sure to find unique ideas to save/remember as you hop through the projects our world-wide design team have created.

My card features a new Online Exclusive background stamp named Painted Stripes:

To show it’s versatility, I’m using this background to create THREE different patterns behind the dinosaurs on this birthday card any dino-obsessed kid would appreciate!

Painted Stripes can be used for vertical lines, horizontal stripes or stamped both directions to create a playful plaid pattern. I love that they are imperfect lines with variegated textures, because you can’t stamp it incorrectly! You can also use this large background stamp on the envelope to make it match (I masked off the address area with a post-it note, which you remove after stamping over it):

The Darling Dinos live up to their name, and are just as cute when stamped on colored card stock, for minimal effort in coloring. And hats on dinos? Cuteness factor x 1000!

I’ll list the supplies used below the roll-call, and am happy to serve you if you don’t have a U.S. demonstrator. Find MORE beautiful background ideas for your card creations at each of these places:

10 days left in Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-a-Bration 2024, with your window to choose free gifts narrowing quickly…so today we are taking a look at one of the options I haven’t shown before: The Jungle Pals stamp set.

Jungle Pals Stampin' Up! Sale-a-Bration 2024 Rainbow Card

As one of your options to choose with $50 order (until 2/29/24), I wanted to show an easy way to use just the stamp set (there is an additional coordinating die set you could select with another $100 purchase).

Start with a 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ black card stock base. I added a piece of the Rock & Roll Designer Series Paper colored with Stampin’ Write markers to the top right side, and simply stamped the animals on 1-1/4″ square colored card stock pieces. Frame each animal in 1-3/8″ white card stock and tile onto the front of the card.

For the inside, you’ll need a 5-1/4″ x 8-1/4″ white card stock. Refer to video tutorial for instructions for easy pop-up mechanism instructions.

Here’s the how to:

This style of card can be created with many different products, and choosing products through my Stampin’ Store helps me to keep bringing you this type of training and teaching. When you support a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, you are guaranteed quality products, unmatched service and hours of happy creativity!
