Daisy Delight Daisy Punch Stampin' Up! Card



At stamp club/class last night we made this card using the Delightful Daisy stamp set and Daisy Punch.  The Label Me Pretty set has several cute sentiments, and this punch will be great with several of the larger sentiments we've seen in other sets lately. 

The Delightful Daisy designer series paper has such a great variety of patterns that we could have made numerous cards in various colors with it, but I chose the Night of Navy which I think fades to Wisteria Wonder. The watermarking is different, but the look is fun. 

I love the new Night of Navy Gingham Ribbon, and the Clear Faceted Gems in the center of the daisy creat just the right amount of sparkle.


Using TAMS/These Are My Stamps I've added the item numbers and links in case you'd like add these items to your wish list or shop for any of these items in my Stampin' Up! store.

Happy Birthday Gorgeous Stampin' Up! Balloon Card

We made this card at my recent Hostess Appreciation Brunch.  I love the little Balloon Honeycomb Embellishments too. This card uses the last Mojo Monday Sketch #500. It was easy to incorporate the 1/4 inch Stitched-Edge Ribbon and the Polka Dot Basics Embossing Folder. What a fun sketch too!

Graceful Garden and Sheet Music Stampin' Up! cards

I love the rose in the new Graceful Garden set, and it looks so different in different colors. The Powder Pink colored rose looks muted to me, so I used both the Basic Black Shimmer ribbon and the Very Vanilla 1/2" Lace Trim to soften the look. With the Berry Burst rose, I used just the Basic Black Shimmer ribbon for a rich bright look. The Sheet Music background made a great base for the card when stamped in Crumb Cake, and the image was stamped in Basic Black and colored with markers.  The sentiment and frame are from the Happy Birthday Gorgeous set. I have used that little set a TON in the short time I've had it.

You Move Me Stampin Up! set Motion Cards

We recently made the card on the left at both my downline meeting and my Hostess/Club Appreciation Brunch.  When you slowly slide the card from the pocket/Mini Treat Bag, the wings of the hummingbird appear to flutter!  It is such a fun thing that I just had to share it.  I used the Tabs for Everything set and punch to make it really obvious that a person should slide the inner card upwards.

This is such a great Bundle (145322) with plenty of ways to use the trumpet vines, hummingbirds and butterflies, and I love the new Old Olive Mini Chevron Ribbon (144196) too.

The card on the right is almost a CASE of the catalog that I gave to my husband for our Anniversary. For this card, I just changed the butterfly to Pumpkin Pie and Peekaboo Peach and the sentiment to My Heart Flutters ("When You're Around." is on the inside.) I then used regular linen thread since it looks more masculine and natural to me.

Inky Friends' 2017-2018 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog Blog Hop



We're happy you've joined us for the 2017-2018 Inky Friends Annual Catalog Blog Hop!  I hope you find some great ideas as you hop through these fun stamp sets!

If you get lost or want to see the list of participants, go to the Inky Friends Blog to get directions.

If you are traveling in order, you've arrived from Twila's Stamp A Little Longer blog on which she displayed her wild and wonderful creations with the A Little Wild set.

The Beautiful Bouquet set is such a fun little set and seems so versatile to me. I made both a card and a bouquet in a little bottle.  My card is the expected design with "ribbon around the stems with the Happy Birthday sentiment from the set at the bottom.  The bouquet in the bottle has simple floral stems cut down to size with various colors of the same tiny flowers for a kitschy look that will be sweet in my kitchen window.





I also made this simple 4-1/2 inch square card with just the stem stamp and wispy flowers in Pacific Point stamped 3 times without reinking.  The glitter dots add a nice sparkle in the corner of a very simple card.  I hope I've given you just enough inspiration with this set that you thought of cute things ~you'd~ like to make with it. It would be great in autumn colors as well.



Now, we'll continue to Yapha's Stamp and Scrap with Yapha blog to Wake Up with her adorable Coffee Cafe set creations.
