Rain or Shine?

Are you a rain or a shine person? I think I am both. I love the sunshine, but I also love a good summer thunderstorm. Not the tornado type like we have seen in the mid-west this year, but a cooling summer thunderstorm. There is just something magical about the day turning dark in the middle of the afternoon. And of course the amazing colorful clouds once the storm clears. Who knows there may even be a rainbow!

My card today is from a new bundle in the January -June mini catalog, Flowering Rain Boots. It also doubled as a birthday card for my upline, Brian King, earlier this month. I know I am double-dipping, but why reinvent the wheel? Right?

So introducing the Flowering Rain Boots Bundle…….

Today is the first day of Sale-A-Bration 2022 and you can also purchase anything from the January-June mini catalog, including this amazing Flowering Rain Boots Bundles, plus earn a FREE Sale-a-Bration product.

Good-Bye Sweet Delicate Dahlias!

Well my friends, today is the absolute last day for you to order anything from the Sale-a-brations brochure, as the sale ends tonight at midnight (MT). If you enjoyed yesterday’s video, you are going to love our card for today. I am featuring the Delicate Dahlias for the last time. Boo hoo! Really going to miss this stamp set.

Similar to one of the Bermuda Bay cards from yesterday, I stamped the detailed outline dahlia in VersaMark Ink and added some black embossing powder, used the heat tool to emboss and used the Water Painters to add a bit of Polished Pink color. I used my Paper Snips and yes, I fussy cut the Dahlia.

I began with a Polished Pink card base and added a layer of Basic Black and Basic White. I popped up the Dahlia with some Stampin’ Dimensionals and added a few Matte Black Dots. The greeting is from the In Your Words stamp set.

Don’t forget if you want any of the FREE products in the Sale-a-Bration brochure, today is the LAST day. Our host code is: HXMHZWQX

Crafty Creation Meets Color Challenge-Favorite Things Friday

Being crafting and creating cards is one of my favorite things! As a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator I am blessed to be part of an amazing community of stampers known as the InKing Royals! You may have met some of them through our monthly blog hops. My upline Brian King not only offers support, he is also fun and if you join my team, you too can be part of this amazing stamping community.

Last month we had a color challenge. The idea was to create a card using only Old Olive, Real Red and Cinnamon Cider. I have to warn you that color challenges are very challenging for me! Here is one of the cards I posted on our private Facebook page.

The star of this card is the Textures and Frames stamp set that is in the Sale-a-bration brochure and can be yours FREE with a $50 order. This event will end on September 30th so don’t delay, order today! I also used the Forever Fern set and coordinating dies along with the hello from Biggest Wish.

You too can take part in our crafting fun! Join my team today and in addition to the amazing $125 worth of product for only $99, you can choose an additional Bundle FREE!

DIY Background Technique-Make It Monday #24

Today I am sharing a technique with you on how to create your own background paper using a stamp from the Artistically Inked Bundle. This technique can be adapted to a variety of stamps, but I think the Artistically Ink set creates a wonderful marbleized background effect.

I stamped directly on my Basic White cardstock, but you could also use a high quality printer paper to create your own Designers Series paper.

Free Instruction Sheet

The Delicate Dahlias set is a Sale-a-bration product and I am happy to say can be yours with a $100 order. But hurry, this offer ends on September 30, 2021. Our host code is HXMHZWQX-Happy Stamping!

Penguin Playmates – Favorite Things Friday

The number one thing on my list when I first got the Sale-a-Bration brochure was the adorable Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper pack and yes, I also have the Penguin Place bundle from the July – December 2021 mini catalog, page 33. I just can’t help myself, I love all things Christmas and most especially cute little Christmas playmates.

This paper is so much fun to cut up and create stinkin’ cute cards! I posted a video on Monday as part of my Make it Monday videos tutorials on how to use the Stitched Rectangles and this adorable paper. Click here if you missed that video. Check out my other videos by using the categories search located in the side bar of each post.

I started with a Soft Seafoam card base and added a layer of trees from the Penguin Playmates Designer Series paper pack. I tore a 3 x 4 panel of Basic White Cardstock in half and layered it on the DSP to resemble snow drifts. I then fussy cut some of the playmates with my Paper Snips and added them to the snow banks. Both greetings are from Evergreen Elegance.

Here is a look at the inside of my card! The white panel measures 4 x 5¼.
