I was looking through some of my cards that I had previously made before I started doing my blog to get ideas on what to share with you on my Facebook live on Monday.  I came across a card that I actually had made recently, but for some reason never did a blog post about it.  The technique I used is called Floating Frame.  

These are the first two cards that I made with the technique.  I really like how they came out.  

On Monday night on my Facebook live how showed how to make cards using the Floating Frame technique.  I made them as a fall card this time and love how they turned out.  

The internet cut me off during my live, so it is in two videos.  The second one is not very long.  

Part 1

Part 2

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Early Espresso

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
• cut at 2 1/2" x 3 3/4"

Whisper White

• cut 3 at 4" x 5 1/4"
• cut at 2" x 3"

Scraps of the following to make the leaves:

• Cajun Craze
• Crushed Curry
• Merlot
• Mossy Meadow

Cardstock:

Whisper White Thick

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

Early Espresso

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"

Crushed Curry

• cut at 1" x 5 1/4"

Whisper White

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4" for inside of card
• cut at 3 1/4" x 4 3/4"

On this card, I added Wink of Stella to the leaves to give it a little bit of sparkle.

I used Stampin Blends to color the pumpkins and used the Gathered Leaves dies to cut them out.  The Floating Frame technique is so fun to make! I am sure I will be making more of these. 

Come back on Friday and I will be sharing with you a Fall/Halloween project.  

Thank you for stopping by today!  

Happy Stampin and

Have you ever looked at a card and fell in love with it immediately?  I saw this card online and fell in love immediately.  I don't remember who created it, but if it is yours or you know who did,  please let me know so I can give her/him credit.  I love to color so this was right up my alley.  The Good Morning Magnolia stamp set and Magnolia Memory dies are perfect for coloring.  You know what else is awesome? You can get the stamp set and dies as a bundle and safe 10%!  I love when Stampin' Up! offers bundles.

For the pink card, I used the Lovely Lipstick, Petal Pink and Mossy Meadow - both dark and light - Stampin Blends.  I love these markers, they are perfect for coloring different layers of color on your projects.  

For the blue card, I used the Night of Navy, Balmy Blue and Mossy Meadow - both dark and light - Stampin Blends.

What is really nice is I used one sheet of paper.   This one of the simple stamping cards, which is ink, paper and stamps.  You will need 

Whisper White Thick

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

I stamped the flowers and the sentiment with Memento Ink and then used the Stampin Blends for all the coloring.  

I like to start with the darkest color first and go to the lightest color when I color in an images.  If you look closely you can see where I left a couple of spots white.  I wanted it to look as realistic as possible.  When you look at a flower the next time, see if you see some white spots?  Especially if the sun is shinning on it.  

To get part of the flower to stick up like in the picture above, it is actually quite easy. 

• stamp your image with Memento ink
• using the die in Magnolia Memory dies line up the flower
• put the Big Shot plate edge where you want it to stop cutting (I did it at the score line)
• put through the Big Shot - make sure you are cutting the side you want up to stand up
• once you reach the score line, stop and crank the Big Shot handle the other direction
• you don't want to cut it all the way through

You may have to trim it a little with your Paper Snips if you don't get it all the way to the score line.  When you fold your card on the score line, that part will stay up.  

Now is when you want to color it.  You don't want to color the whole thing, then go to cut it, make a mistake and ruin the whole card.  Ask me how I know not to do this.  LOL

To finish off the cards, I added Wink of Stella to the flowers and stems.  I love to color, so this card was especially fun for me to make.  We also made this card in my advanced card class, not because of difficulty, due to the amount of time it took to color everything.  The ladies loved it!

I will be showing you how to make my project from my first Fall Friday of 2019.  It is the post right below this one.  I will be also sharing you a Christmas version of the same project.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you have a fantastic week!

Time to get back to basics!  I only used one sheet of Whisper White Thick cardstock and ink on this card.  How cool is that!  I used the Rooted In Nature stamp set from the 2019 Stampin' Up! annual catalog.  

I used Mossy Meadow ink for the sentiment and the leaves were stamped with Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry inks.  

I stamped the inside of my card on the bottom edge and on the flap of my envelope with the two leaves.  

You can change the sentiment and have a card in less than 5 minutes for any occasion.  You have to love that!  #simplestamping

I am so excited about tomorrow!  Erica and I are flying down to see Emily in Texas so we can go wedding dress shopping.  I think I am going to be feeling a lot of different emotions.  I am so happy for her, but also, can't believe my baby is old enough to be getting married.  How can that be?  I am only 29 years old!  LOL

If you think about it, we would love prayers for safe travel for this weekend for us and everyone else who is traveling.  I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend and a wonderful Labor Day!

On Friday night I had my first Bunco Night and will be having another again.  It was so much fun!  We made 4 different cards and played 3 rounds of Bunco.   The cards were simple because we wanted to have time to play Bunco too. 

I used  the Bloom & Grow stamp set from the annual catalog, along with the Swirls and Curls embossing folder and Black Satin Ribbon.  

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Whisper White Thick

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

Purple Posy

• cut at 4" x 4 1/4"

I wrapped the Black Satin ribbon around the Purple Posy cardstock and then popped it up with Stampin Dimensionals.  I did use a retired punch for the flower and center of it.  I put Wink of Stella on the center of the flower.   This is a fun and easy card to make and it turns out beautiful.

Here are some pictures from the fun evening.

Last week I shared with you one of the cards we had made in my monthly card class using the To A Wild Rose stamp set.  If you missed it, you can click on  To A Wild Rose, to see it.  It is one of my favorite cards I had made in a long time.  This card I had seen online and love it.  I don't know who designed it, but I am glad they shared it with everyone.  

I stamped the rose on Very Vanilla cardstock using Terracotta Tile ink and Old Olive ink to stamp the leaves.   I used the Wild Rose dies to both of them out.  The rose is popped with Stampin Dimensionals, but everything else is adhered using Snail adhesive.  The sentiment is from the Well Said stamp set.  I used the same colors as the rose, Terracotta Tile ink on Very Vanilla cardstock.  

The Mosaic Mood designer series paper is so pretty.  It is hard to see on this picture, but there are some shiny accents.   

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Mint Macaron

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

Very Vanilla

• cut at 5/8" x 3 1/2"
• cut at 3" x 7" for the rose and leaves
• cut at 4" x 5 1/4" for the inside of the card

Mosaic Mood Designer Series Paper

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"

I will be sharing with you the August Paper Pumpkin kit.  This kit is so cute for the fall season.  See you then!  Here is the link to my Stampin Scrapper Facebook page.  

It's Monday!!!  What exciting things do you have planned for this week?  Robin and I are busy working on projects for my Holiday Extravaganza retreat!  On Saturday, Erica and I will be flying to Texas to see Emily and go wedding dress shopping.  It is going to be so much fun.  I have to make sure I am wearing waterproof mascara.  I will definitely cry.

Have a fantastic Monday!

When you hear the name, Healing Hugs, for a stamp set you wouldn't think of using it for a birthday card.   But I did!  That is one of many things that I love about Stampin' Up! products.  You can use them in so many different ways and they coordinate with so many different products. 

I am not quite sure why the cardstock on this picture is so dark.  I used Blackberry Bliss, but it looks black for some reason.   On Monday night I did a Facebook Live on how to make this card that I saw on Pinterest.  I don't remember who made it, and I can't find it back.  Thank you who ever did and for sharing it.  

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Blackberry Bliss

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

Whisper White

• cut at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
• cut at 2 1/2" x 7" for the flower and leaves

Here is the video that I did about how to make this card.  I also show you the other two cards I made with the same stamp set.

I added pearls to the piece of cardstock that is embossed with the Tufted embossing folder.  They really make this card look elegant.

I added Wink of Stella to the flower and the leaves to give them a little bit of bling.  

It's Friday!!!  I am excited for the weekend.  Robin and I are going to be working on creating projects for my Holiday Extravaganza.  Do you have plans for this weekend?  Have a wonderful weekend!

I am so excited about the new products in the Stampin' Up! 2019 Holiday catalog!  I knew right away the Snowman Season stamp set would be at the top of my list.  If you don't already know, I LOVE SNOWMEN!!!  They make me happy!  I put them out with my Christmas decorations and keep all of my snowmen up until February 1st.  Here in Ohio it is still winter and we definitely still get snow.  

I had mentioned on Monday on my Facebook live that I would be participating in a blog hop today.  Due to technical issues, I wasn't able to participate.  Hopefully next time it will work out.  The above card is the one that I made for the blog hop.  While I was making this card I figured out a great tip using the Snowman Builder punch and the Let It Snow specialty designer series paper.   I couldn't wait to share with you!  

The snowman is so cute, I had to use him on my card today.  Also, from the same paper pack I used the strips and mittens designs.  They are actually on the same piece of paper, one design on the front and the other design on the back.  This card was easy to make because I could punch out the snowman and the hat from the paper.  I also punched out the arms from Early Espresso cardstock. 

The snowflakes were made from a die from the Frosted Frames Dies.  I then made them sparkle with Wink of Stella.  Who doesn't like sparkle!  

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock

Whisper White Thick

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

Coastal Cabana

• scrap for a 1 1/2" circle

Real Red

• cut at 1 5/8" x 5 1/2"
• cut at 3 1/8" x 4 1/4"
• cut at 2 1/2" x 3 3/4"

Whisper White

• scrap for the sentiment
• cut at 2 1/2" x 5 1/4" for the snowflakes

I popped up the Real Red cardstock that was cut with the Stitched Rectangle dies and the sentiment using Stampin Dimensionals.  The snowflakes were adhered using the Mini Glue Dots.

I have to be honest with all of you.  When I first saw the To A Wild Rose stamp set from the Stampin' Up! 2019-2020 annual catalog I didn't like it.  I kept looking at it and still didn't like it.  Then my best friend/assistant, Robin, asked me to teach a class using this stamp set.  I thought to myself, how am I going to do that when I don't even like the stamp set?

I started playing with it, and playing with it, and playing with it and then finally, I started to like it.  Now, I love it!  I am not sure what my problem was with this set.  Do you ever look at stamp sets and think, nope don't like it?  Then you see a card made with it, or you see and person and then say "I have to have it!" 

The above card is one of the cards we made at the class.  Lately, I have been drawn to the color purple.  I have always liked it, but lately it is everywhere I look.  I must just be noticing it more now.  On this card I used the Highland Heather and Smoky Slate inks.  I haven't used this color combination before, but I like it, a lot.

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Smoky Slate

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

Whisper White

• cut 2 at 4" x 5 1/4"
• cut at 2 3/4" x 2 3/4" for the flower
• cut at 3" x 5" for the leaves

2019-2021 In Color Designer Series Paper

• cut at 1 1/2" 5 1/2"

The flower in this set is a 2 step stamp.  What that means is, you will stamp the outline first using one stamp, and then the inside, using another stamp.  You can do the inside first and then the outline, it is all up to you.  I used the Highland Heather ink for both layers. 

For the leaves, I used Smoky Slate ink, but I stamped the outline full strength and then stamped off the ink for the inside.  When I use the term stamped off, it means I inked up my stamp and then stamped it on a scrap piece of paper.  Then I stamped it on my project.  Doing this technique gives you a lighter image.  

I cut out the flower and leaves by using the coordinating Wild Rose dies.  Right now, if you buy both the stamp set and dies, you can save 10% by using the bundle item number.  I used Stampin Dimensionals to pop the flower and Snail adhesive for the leaves and designer series paper.  The sentiment came from the Stitched All Around stamp set and was stamped using the Highland Heather ink.  To finish off the card, I added 3 purple sequins from the Gingham Gala Sequin embellishments.  

When you saw this stamp set, was it love at first sight, like it, it was ok, or didn't like it?  Now that you have seen projects with it, has your opinion changed?   Mine sure has!

Tonight I am going to be sharing with you a card we made in class on Friday night using the Healing Hugs stamp set.  I am also going to be showing you the other two cards that we made.  I hope you can join us!  

See you soon!

Stampin' Up! 2019 Holiday Paper Share

This card is a very easy card to make and you get to have fun coloring with the new Stampin' Blends.  The stamp set, Good Morning Magnolia and dies, Magnolia Memory, are available as a bundle and you save 10%! 

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Mossy Meadow

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

Petal Pink

• cut at 1" x 5 1/4"

Whisper White

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4" for the inside of the card
• cut at 2 1/4" x 8 1/2" for the flowers and leaves

Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"

I used the Petal Pink (both dark and light) and Mossy Meadow (both dark and light) Stampin' Blends to color in the magnolia flowers.  I love that Stampin' Up! has already helped us with where we need to put the darker colors.  When you stamp the image you will see little lines where your color needs to be darker than other areas.  

I colored three flowers and adhered them to the Petal Pink strip.  I stamped Thanks on the right hand side of the strip using Mossy Meadow ink.  I popped up the top flower with a Stampin Dimensional after I colored them and cut them out with the Magnolia Memory dies.  I added the twine from the Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack.   I also stamped the flower image on the inside of my card and on my envelope, both in the lower left hand corner. 

If you missed the post about how to make the coordinating bag and a bag using 2 pieces of 12" x 12" designer series paper, you can check them out at the link below.

I love to give gifts especially when I make the gift bags and cards for them to go in.  On Monday night I showed how to make these two bags using designer series paper.  I did not come up with these on my own.  Ronda Wade was so kind to share how she made them on YouTube. 

These gift bags are fast and easy and a great way to use your designer series paper.  Stampin' Up! has some of the most beautiful designer series paper that I have seen.  Are you a designer paper hoarder like me?  I have been trying to use it more and more lately.  

To make this gift bag, you are going to start out with two pieces of any 12" x 12" designer series paper.  On the above bag I used Stampin' Up! Magnolia Lane designer series paper.

The measurements are below:

1st 12" x 12" designer series paper

• score at 3" and 9"
• on other side score at 1" (this will be the top of your bag) and 9" (this will be the bottom of your bag)

2nd 12" x 12" designer series paper

• cut 4" off one of the sides (make sure it is on the side of your bag, not top or bottom)
• on 8" side score at 1" and 7"
• on 12" side score at 1" (top of bag) and 9" (bottom of bag)

To make this gift bag you are going to start with two pieces of 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock.  On the above bag I used Mossy Meadow with Magnolia Lane designer series paper.  

On both pieces of cardstock:

• on 8" side score at 1 1/2" and 7"
• on 11" side score at 2 3/4" (this will be the bottom)

Designer Series Paper

• cut 2 at 2 1/2" x 8"
• cut 2 at 5 1/4" x 8"

You can use the 4" piece that you cut off to make a card with it.  I will have directions and measurements for the card on Friday along with information about my Holiday catalog paper share.

On Monday night I did my Facebook live on how to make these two gift bags.  Check out the video below.

There are so many possibilities with all the beautiful designer series paper in the 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! annual catalog.  I just got my preorder from the new 2019 holiday catalog and oh my goodness, the designer series paper is so beautiful.  I keep thinking about all the different gift bags I could make with it.  

Thank you for stopping in today.  I hope you have a fantastic Wednesday. 

Happy Stampin and
