Ornate Thanks Slimline Card

Posted on September 23, 2020 by Susan Horr

Stampin Up Ornate Thanks

I received this card in the mail from my friend and downline, Char. Char and I have known each other for at least 30 years. We met when I decided to stay home with my kids after my youngest son, Zachary was born. She was looking for childcare for her three children so I decided to start watching other kids in my home. It was actually a perfect idea because all the kids played together. Char made this card for me after we spent a great day on the lake.

Here is a picture of our time on the boat. It was such fun!

I love the new slimline cards everyone is making. I actually made one (which I will show you later) and sent it to Char thanking her for my birthday cake. She makes the most amazing chocolate zucchini cake. It is so rich it doesn’t need frosting and is definitely my favorite cake of all time.

Char’s card is 3.75″ x 8.75″. She used the stamp set called Ornate Thanks. She stamped the sentiment is Pretty Peacock ink and cut it out using the dies called Ornate Labels. These dies are perfect for making slimline cards. The Designer Series Paper she used is called Forever Greenery. It is beautiful paper with beautiful colors. Char even made a matching envelope for her card. It was such a nice surprise to get it in the mail!

Thank you, Char! 💙💚💛

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.

Ornate Garden Suite

Posted on May 25, 2020 by Susan Horr

In the last couple of weeks I have shown you cards I received from a swap with my class members and Downline. This is the card I made to send to them. It uses products from the Ornate Garden Suite that will be in the 2020/2021 Stampin’ Up!® Annual Catalog. This suite contains two stamp sets, two sets of dies, Designer Series Paper, ribbon and embellishments. It is the suite that is available for everyone to buy now (before the catalog actually comes out).

To make this card, I first stamped the flower from the Ornate Style stamp set using Memento Black Ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock. I colored the middle of the flower using a Daffodil Delight Stampin Blends and the leaves using a Mint Macaron Blends. Then I cut it out using a die from the Stitched Rectangles dies set. I backed that with a piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock I had cut out using the Ornate Layers Dies. These dies are gorgeous and very intricate. I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set called Ornate Thanks and cut that out using the Stitched Rectangles. The Designer Series Paper is called Ornate Garden Specialty Paper. I added a piece of Mint Macaron 1/4″ Textile Ribbon. This ribbon is retiring on June 2nd. I decided at the last minute to add the little Basic Adhesive Backed Sequin to the corner.

Here is a quick and easy card I made with a new Suite called Ornate Garden. This Suite is going to be in the 2020/2021 Stampin’ Up!® Annual Catalog. Stampin’ Up!® decided to release it early as a kind of sneak peek to some products that will be in this new catalog which starts in June. The Suite has two stamp sets, two sets of dies, some Designer Series Paper, ribbon and embellishments. You can purchase both stamp sets with their coordinating dies as bundles and save 10% but you can still mix and match everything as I did with this card. To make it even more fun, the Designer Series Paper has a new InColor in it called Bumblebee so you get a sneak peek of that too.

To make this card I used the stamp set called Ornate Thanks. The matching dies to this stamp set is called Ornate Borders but I didn’t use them. Instead I chose to use the dies called Ornate Layers. I first cut out a 4.25″ x 5.5″ piece of the Ornate Garden Specialty DSP and adhered that to a Whisper White card base. I stamped the sentiment in Old Olive Ink and cut it out using another one of the dies in the Ornate Layers set that is a stitched rectangle. I also cut out the fancy background die using the same set in Old Olive cardstock and layered them together using Stampin Dimensionals. It was a super easy card to make because of the great products I used.

Here are the products that are included in this Suite:
