A Rococo Rose Valentine!

So since tomorrow is Valentine’s Day I thought I would offer one more card for the holiday. Did you know that making this Valentine’s Day card was so much cheaper than buying one at the store? Well, I suppose I could find one at Dollar Tree, but it would not be as fancy and this one is made the love.

I decided to go with non-traditional colors, especially since yesterdays card was filled with red hearts! Today I used the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper, the Tailored Tag punch, the hearts from Kangaroo and Company and of’ course the Heartfelt Bundle.

  • Begin with a Rococo Rose card base that measures 5 ½ x 8 ½”.  In landscape position, (aka along the 8½” side) score at 4 ¼”.  Fold in half to create your card.
  • Cut a 3 ¾ x5” piece of Basic Black cardstock. Use the Tailored Tag punch to punch out some designs from the Peony Garden paper pack and glue them to the black panel leaving even spaces between each design.  TIP: I glued the pieces and some of them hung over the edge of the card panel.  Once you are finished attaching all the pieces, flip the card to the back and trim off excess.  SUGGESTION: I recommend using liquid glue to attach the pieces as it will be more forgiving when trying to create the even borders all around.
  • Attach the black design panel to another piece of Basic Black cardstock that measures 1/8” smaller than the panel.
  • Use the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine to cut the small heart die from the Kangaroo and Company dies in Rococo Rose cardstock.  I cut 7 hearts, you may want more, less, or none at all depending on your taste in design.
  • Uses the Heartfelt Bundle to stamp the greeting on a piece of Rococo Rose cardstock in Memento Black ink and punch it out with the smooth heart punch.  Now punch a scalloped heart in black.  Attach the two hearts together and add to the front of your cards.
  • Because I already have a few layers going and I am going to mail this card out, I did not use Stampin’ Dimensionals, but they would look good as well, especially if you are hand-delivering your creation.

For the inside, cut a 4 x 5 ¼” piece of White cardstock and attach to the inside panel.  Stamp the greeting from the Heartfelt Bundle in Rococo Rose ink.  Next stamp the dotted heart in Memento Black around the rose heart.

Heartfelt Anniversary!

This is a clean and simple card using the New True Love Designer Series paper in the JJ2021 Spring mini and the Heartfelt Bundle in the annual catalog. I absolutely love this paper just the way it is, but I also love how it can be colored to create a totally different look. Stay tuned for future blog posts on that one!

Celebrating love and accomplishments can be so much fun. While this is actually an anniversary card for a young couple, it could also be used to celebrate milestones, like the number of years at a job or the number of years as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator!

You too can sign up to be a demonstrator and before you know it, you would be celebrating a one year anniversary of fun and fantastic card making!

Right now, Stampin’ UP! is offering a extra special gift of five 6×6 paper packs for all who sign up before the end of February. Just $99 and you can create your own kit of $125 worth of stamping toy, plus you would also get the free business supply kit. If that sounds fun to you, just CLICK HERE and get the details. I would love to have you on my team!

And now for that Anniversary card!

  • Begin with a Basic Black card base 5 ½ x 8 ½. Score in landscape position at 4 ¼”.
  • To the left side of the card front add a 2 x 5 ¼” piece of the True Love Designer Series Paper.
  • Cut black and white cardstock layers and attach as follows: 2½ x 3½” white, 2¼ x 3¼” black, 2 1/8 x 3 1/8” white. 
  • Stamp Happy Anniversary from Many Mates in Memento Black ink.
  • Use the Heart punches from the bundle to punch a red scallop heart and a white smooth heart and layer them together. Attach the hearts to the black and white layers with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals and attach to the card front.
  • Finish off the card with a little bling by adding a few Red Rhinestone gems.

Ho Ho Ho Perfectly Plaid

Today’s card feature the Perfectly Plaid set in the annual catalog. It is on page 60. It will not be retiring until May so there is still time for this one, not sure if there is any Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper available, but I have loved playing with this designer series pack this season.

  • Begin with a Pretty Peacock card base 5 ½ x 8 ½”. Score in landscape position at 4 ¼”.
  • Layer a piece of 1 ¼ x 5 ½” piece of Plaid Tiding Designer Series paper to the left side of the card. I cut mine at an angle on both end.  
  • Using the Stitched Rectangle Dies cut a large rectangle from Whisper White Cardstock and adhere to the card base, covering some of the plaid paper.
  • From the Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper, punch three trees with the Pine Tree Punch on page 166 in the annual catalog. Layer the trees on the Whisper White rectangle.
  • Using Pretty Peacock ink, stamp Merry Christmas from the Perfectly Plaid set above the tress and the Ho Ho Ho stamp at a slight angle above Merry Christmas.   TIP:  If you cannot purchase the plaid paper, use the plaid tree stamp to create your own plaid design.
  • Layer a 4 x 5 ¼” piece of Whisper White cardstock to the inside of the card.
  • Stamp the inside sentiment from the Perfectly Plaid set in Pretty Peacock ink. 
  • Again using Pretty Peacock ink, stamp the plaid tree to the bottom right under the sentiment.  I stamped the tree trunk in Early Espresso.

This is such a fun Christmas set with so many possibilities. If you would like to add this to your crafty collection, please use the current host code: URBMWZNY.

Christmas Begins with Christ!

I hope you all are gathering your stamping supplies to create beautiful Christmas Cards to send out to your friends and loved ones. This year with all that has gone on in our world, it is nice to bring a little holiday joy by creating hand-stamped cards. My card today is again using the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper, but instead of the photo side, I opted to use the beautiful silver patterned side to create this elegantly layered card. I absolutely love the way it turned out! I began with a Whisper White card base and added a 4 x 5 1/4″ layer of smoky slate. To that added a Whisper White layer that I embossed with the new Winter Snow Embossing Folder. I cut a 3 x 5 piece of the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper and added it to some smoky slate measuring 3 1/4 x 4 1/4.

The sentiment from For Unto Us is stamped in Smoky Slate ink on Whisper White and cut using the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine with the Stitched Circle Dies and popped with the Stampin’ Dimensionals. Around the layer of Smoky Slate and Feels Like Frost Designer Series layer I tied some Silver Metallic Edge ribbon.

This was a fun card to create and while it took a little more than two minutes to create, I feel the extra time and labor was worth it! Thanks for stopping by today! Feel free to leave a comment. I hope you will join me again tomorrow for another fabulous card surprise! Stamping Hugs and Blessings, Renae.
