Leave a Comment / Make it Monday Videos, Stamping Techniques, Thinking of You /

https://www.stampinup.com/products/uninked-stampin-pad-whisper-white-refill?demoid=2244521Happy Monday everyone. I thought I would pop on today with a fun stamping technique known as shadow stamping. It is super easy and all you need to create the shadow is a Craft White (pigment) ink pad and I am sure you have that in your stamping stash. If not, click here to purchase one from my online store. Everytime you purchase an item from my online store that is $20 or more you will earn 10% in stamping rewards. Awesome!!! Be sure to select me a your demonstrator and opt into the rewards program as well as communications from me.

I hope you enjoyed today’s technique. Be sure to let me know if you have any questions, just email me at blessedbycards@yahoo.com Click on the button below to grab your free project sheet with supplies and instructions.

A Sad Good-bye to Flowers of Beauty!

Happy Birthday, Make it Monday Videos, Thinking of You /

Don’t you hate it when one of your favorite stamp sets gets moved to the retiring list? For me it is the Flowers of Beauty. While I am extremely happy that I purchased this set, it is always sad to say good-bye when sets retire. As a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator I try to feature our most recent products. Even though I don’t feature them on my blog or in my stamping classes, I will for sure be keeping this one in my stash to create cards to gift and to sell.

Weekly Wed. #50 Friends of the Ocean

Happy Birthday, Thinking of You, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

Happy Wednesday. I am once again featuring two cards I created using the Friends of the Ocean paper pack. It is time to think about venturing out to the beach. Summer will be here before you know it.

Our first card was created using the Lemon Lime Twist cardstock. I don’t often use this color, but it coordinates perfectly with this paper pack. Plus it is so vibrant and just plain fun! The greetings if from With You in Mind and is stamped with Melon Mambo ink.

Sticking with the colors in the paper our second card is the In-color, Summer Splash. It also coordinates perfectly, so fresh and summery! I stamped the greeting from Layering Leaves in Summer Splash and cut out some of our tiny ocean friends using my paper snips. If you watch the video, you will know why I needed to add the extra starfish.

Enjoy these fun summer colors and this paper pack of ocean friends while supplies last. Click here to view the online last chance products. Happy Stamping!
