Pink Sunflowers Spread Hope

Painting October Pink in support of someone fighting Breast Cancer? This slimline card is one to pick!

This fits into a legal envelope and uses card stock wisely: Begin with an 8.5″ x 11″ BUBBLE BATH (edited) card stock and cut 4″ off one end, leaving an 8.5″ x 7″ card base. Score it in half at 3.5″.

Other card stock needed: Basic White, 3″ x 8″ and Strawberry Slush 3.25″ x 8.25″

From the center of the strawberry slush layer, cut the H, P, and E using the Party Alphabet dies…don’t worry, no one will know, since the layer is on the bottom!

Cut the piece of Bubble Bath card stock you cut off the card base down to 2.75″ x 7.75″ and stamp the sunflower image in Strawberry Slush ink. You should also be able to use the scraps for the ribbon!

With each purchase of the Love & Courage Stamp Set, Stampin’ Up!® will donate $3 to support the fight against breast cancer (PLUS you’ll earn $2.50 in Stampin’ Rewards- make sure you’ve opted in for rewards!)

You can make a difference while stamping – Thank you for spreading love & hope with your crafting!

Keepin’ It Cool with Pink Ice Cream

August 3, 2024Leave a comment

When we take the grandkids for Ice Cream, COLOR is always the biggest factor in choosing which flavor to get! According to their thinking, the brighter the color, the better it tastes?

For a hand-stamped birthday card today, the colors were chosen by the weekly TGIF Challenge, #tgifc484

I’m a big fan of images that pop out of the frame, and that concept works well here.

A quick swipe of the White Craft ink pad over the eyelet-embossed Daffodil Delight background allowed me to emboss it with white embossing powder – if double scoops of ice cream are better, so is double embossing!

Top if off with some sprinkles (Iridescent discs sparkle and catch the light, and they are flat for mailing as an added bonus) and you’ve served up a cute birthday cone!

Simply Zinnia Thank You Card Slanted Background In Color 2024-2026

In Color Zinnia Card Duos

April 22, 2024Leave a comment

If there were a contest for the “most cheerful flower”, don’t you think ZINNIAS would take the prize?

Today’s card(s) feature the Simply Zinnia bundle (an online exclusive available now in my Stampin’ Store) as well as the 2024-2026 In Color products that will be in my store on May 1st!

This slanted background is a handy template to remember (or PIN!) because you can create TWO cards in about the same time it takes to make just one!

It all starts with a 6″ x 3-3/4″ piece of In-Color Designer Series Paper. Mark it at 2″ on the bottom long edge (on the back side of the design you want to use) and at 4″ on the top long edge. Then cut it from the 2″ mark to the 4″ mark. Layer each of those pieces onto a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Basic Black card stock and you are halfway done.

TIP: The leftover 6″ x 2-1/4″ piece of Designer Series Paper fits perfectly on the flap of your envelope, giving you terrific coordination!

Watch the tutorial (speed it up, if desired) to learn how to finish up the card:

And why stop at 2 cards when you can make 10? Two in each of the 2024-26 In Colors: Petunia Pop (shown above), Summer Splash, Peach Pie, Pretty In Pink and Shy Shamrock!

These colors coordinate beautifully, so you can even mix up the colors on the flowers- with the alcohol-based Stampin’ Blends markers, the colors bleed together smoothly:

Here are a few wonderful ways to collect the new IN COLORS:

It’s easy to grow to love a color as you use it to make pretty projects, but with this year’s IN COLORS (coming in May), it was LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!
