Stampin Up Daisy Garden

Daisy Garden is a new background stamp that is in the 2021/2022 Stampin’ Up!® Up Annual Catalog.  They offer a few different background stamps and I like all of them but this one caught my eye because it was an image and not just a background.  You can stamp it and leave it alone or you can color it with your Stampin’ Up!® Write Markers, Watercolor Pencils or Blends.

For this card I decided to use this large background stamp on Designer Series Paper.  I always forget that DSP is great for backgrounds but you can also stamp on it to make it more interesting.  In this card I stamped it onto a piece of Soft Succulent In Color 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper Assortment using Evening Evergreen ink.  I used the Stamparatus to do this which allowed me to stamp it multiple times for good coverage.  After stamping it I cut it down to 3.75″ x 5″ and layered it on top of a 4″ x 5.5″ piece of Evening Evergreen card stock and a Soft Succulent card base.

After that I stamped six small daisies from the stamp set called Daisy Lane and punched them out using the Medium Daisy Punch in So Saffron ink.  I used two daisies to make one flower.   I stamped the centers of the flowers in Evening Evergreen ink and fussy cut them out.  The sentiment is from the stamp set called Artistically Inked.  I stamped it in Versamark and sprinkled White Embossing Powder on top and heated it with my Heat Tool.  When I emboss something I also use my Stamparatus in case some of the embossing powder doesn’t stick so you can stamp it again in the exact same spot.  I also like to emboss a sentiment twice to make it stand out more (which I did in this case).

As a side note, Rob and I are so fortunate in being able to have our cottage on Lake Ontario in the summer and in Nashville in the winter.  When we left New York, Fall had already started and the weather was in the high 60’s with cool nights.  Then we arrived in Nashville for another two months of summer.  This past week it has actually been a bit hot (in the mid to high 80’s) but I am not complaining.  The longer the summer lasts, the happier I am.  It is hard for me to make Fall and winter cards when it is so warm but this is a reality check for everyone.  Christmas is only a couple of months away.  It is time to think about your Christmas cards.  Stampin’ Up!® offers some amazing Christmas sets in the Annual and the Mini Catalogs.  You need to order soon to have enough time to make those beautiful cards.  Don’t forget adhesive and card stock while you are ordering!

Stampin Up Ornate Thanks

Here is a quick and easy card to make when you don’t have a lot of time but need to or want to send a card to someone.  I have been sending a lot of cards in the mail just to let people know I am thinking of them or thanking them for various things they have done.  People appreciate being thanked and sending cards is a great way to let people know you care.

To make this card I first stamped two daisies from the stamp set Daisy Lane in Bumblebee ink and then punched them out using the Daisy Punch.  I layered these together using a Stampin’ Up!® Dimensional.  I ran a Whisper White card base through my embossing machine using the Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folder.  I cut a piece of 2020-2022 InColor Designer Series Paper in Misty Moonlight and put a strip of BumbleBee cardstock along one side before adhering it to the card base.  I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set called Ornate Thanks  in Misty Moonlight ink onto a piece of BumbleBee cardstock and punched it out using the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch.  The entire card took less than ten minutes.

Daisy Lane is a stamp set that is in the Stampin’ Up!® 2019/2020 Annual Catalog.  It has a matching punch called Medium Daisy (and you can save 10% by purchasing them in a Bundle) plus it also matches the Daisy Punch.  In addition to this, it goes well with another stamp set called Daisy Delight.  I love it when Stampin’ Up!® makes coordinating products!  Well, actually everything they make has matching coordinating products which makes it so easy to put things together.  Stampin’ Up!® has something for everyone.  If you are a beginner or an avid stamper you can find great products in their catalogs.

To make this card I first stamped two daisies from the Daisy Lane stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink on Whisper White cardstock and punched them out using the Daisy Punch.  Then I took a 4″ x 4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock and stamped the fern in a circle using Granny Apple Green Ink.  I stamped the sentiment from Itty Bitty Birthdays and layered everything on top of each other.  It was a quick and easy card to make but makes a nice birthday card.

Here is another card I made to thank people for my birthday presents.  It uses the Stitched All Around stamp set and matching dies called Stitched Labels again (if you didn’t see my previous card using this bundle, you can check it out here).  I also used the stamp set called Daisy Lane for the wreath made out of the flowers.

To make this card, I first used my wreath builder stencil and the flower from the stamp set called Daisy Lane.  I stamped it numerous times in a circle using Crushed Curry Ink.  Then I stamped the thank you sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink and cut it out using the coordinating die from Stitched Labels.  I backed this with a circle I punched out using the 1 3/4″ Circle Punch and Mossy Meadow cardstock and adhered it to the center of the flower wreath.

After that I masked off a stamp from Flourishing Phrases so that I would only ink up the words “so very much”.  A lot of people cut their stamps so they don’t have to mask them.  Honestly, this would give me hives.  It is so easy to mask off a section of a stamp using Washi Tape or something similar.  You just place the tape over the words you don’t want to use, ink the stamp, pull off the tape and stamp it onto a piece of paper.  Only the words that on ink will show.  Then I cut it out using the Classic Label Punch.

On a side note:  Happy Birthday, Peter.  We are looking forward to seeing you soon!!

I love background stamps.  They add so much texture to a card.  Birch is a new background stamp that is in the Stampin’ Up!® 2019/2020 Annual Catalog.  We have birch trees all over our neighborhood and I have memories of sending letters using birch bark to my grandparents who lived in Vermont and Florida.  I also saw a card online that used the Birch stamp for water.  It was awesome!

The colors I used for this card are Balmy Blue, So Saffron and Smoky Slate.  The easiest way to stamp with such a large stamps is to use your Stamparatus.  That way if you don’t get ink in all the right places you can just stamp it again in the exact same spot.  If you don’t have a Stamparatus (what?  that is just craziness!), then you can always turn the background stamp upside side, ink it and then lay your cardstock on top and rub.  But really.  You need to get a Stamparatus!

I stamped the flowers from the stamp set called Daisy Lane and punched from out using the Daisy Punch and the Medium Daisy Punch.  The sentiment is from another new stamp set called Band Together.  I love the font in this stamp set.

I have seen a lot of photographs, cards and pictures online using a colored background with a pop of white.  I love this look and decided to create a card using it.  Actually, in the coming weeks you are probably going to see a lot of cards using this idea (I am just warning you ahead of time).

To make this card I first took a 4″ x 5.25″ piece of Gray Granite cardstock and ran it through my die cutting machine using the Subtle 3D embossing Folder..  I love how this folder adds a little texture to the background of a card.  I layered this onto a card base of Gray Granite.  Next I cut the oval frame using two of the Layering Ovals dies in Whisper White cardstock and one in Gray Granite using the larger Oval.  If you look closely you will see that the middle section inside the Oval frame is not embossed.  I punched out the leaves using the Leaf Punch also using the Whisper White cardstock.  I stamped two of the smaller daisies from Daisy Lane using So Saffron Ink and punched them out using the Medium Daisy Punch (you can save 10% by purchasing that stamp set and punch in a Bundle).  I put everything together and then stamped the sentiment from Itty Bitty Birthdays in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

This is one of the cards we made at my monthly stamp class.  I used the stamp set called Daisy Lane along with the matching Medium Daisy Punch (you can save 10% by purchasing them in a Bundle) and the Daisy Punch.  I love it when Stampin’ Up!® makes sets that can go together.  In this case the stamp set called Daisy Delight also matches the Daisy Punch.

To make this card I first stamped the two larger daisies in Purple Posy and Highland Heather Ink and punched them out using the Daisy Punch.  Then I stamped the smaller daisy in Gorgeous Grape, punched that out using the Medium Daisy Punch and layered all the daisies together.  I cut a piece of Whisper White and Crushed Curry cardstock using the Stitched Nested Dies and adhered them together.  Then I cut the top off of them.  If you adhere them before cutting them, you don’t have to worry about lining them up afterwards.  I stamped the sentiment in Gorgeous Grape and adhered the daisies underneath it.  The Designer Series Paper I used for the background is called Mosaic Mood.

The last part of the card was to dye the White Baker’s Twine.  I cut a piece of it and put it in a plastic zip top bag.  I added about 3 drops of Gorgeous Grape ink and squished it around until the ink covered the string.  I didn’t want it a solid color because I kind of liked the ombre look to it.  This way you can make Baker’s Twine in any of the Stampin’ Up!® colors!  Here is a small hint:  It takes a bit to dry so don’t pick it out with your fingers (ask me how I know this).

I love simple and easy cards.  I think they can be elegant and still get the point across.  Simple and easy cards are called CAS.  This stands for clean and simple.

This card is a CAS card. I used the new stamp set called Daisy Lane.  This stamp set has a couple of coordinating punches.  One is the Daisy Punch and the other is the Medium Daisy Punch.  You can buy this stamp set and the Medium Daisy Punch in a Bundle and save 10%   This stamp set also has a coordinating stamp in the new catalog called Daisy Delight.  I love it when Stampin’ Up!® adds new products to go with the old products.

To make this card, I first stamped the flower in Gorgeous Grape and the stem in Shaded Spruce onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock.  Then I stamped the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and layered this piece onto Gorgeous Grape cardstock and then onto a Whisper White card base.

Stampin’ Up!® has so many awesome new products in the 2019/2020 Annual Catalog that I had a hard time keeping to my budget.  I am not a very patient person so when I see something I love, I want it immediately.  This card had three different products that I purchased right away.

The colors I used on this card are Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Mango Melody.  To make this card I first used the set of dies called Tasteful Backgrounds.  There are three dies in this set that you can use to make fun backgrounds like this one.  It also has a matching stamp set called Tasteful Textures (and you can get the 10% Bundle price).  I didn’t use the matching stamp set on this card but it is really pretty and worth buying.

After I cut them out, I used my 1 1/4″ Circle Punch with Mango Melody cardstock to put behind a couple of the cut out images.  Then I used Mango Melody ink with the stamp set called Daisy Lane with the matching punch called Medium Daisy (you can buy these in a Bundle and save 10%).  The sentiment is from another new stamp set called Here’s A Card.  This is a sentiment only set that has a few different elegant fonts and sentiments to use on the inside and the outside of a card.
