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!

Happy Stampin and

I am so happy that you are joining us for our blog hop!   We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrator from around the world who are Hoppin’ With Exciting Ideas to share with you. Today we will feature products from the 2019-2020 annual Stampin’ Up! Catalog. I know you will find a lot of wonderful ideas that are shared today!

I had a hard time trying to figure out what stamp set I wanted to use for this blog hop.  There are so many beautiful sets in this catalog.  I started to look around my craft room to get inspiration and saw my display of the Blends markers.  I knew I wanted to use them, so that narrowed down my choices to images that could be colored.  There were still quite a few left in my pile and still no idea which one to use. 

Then, I looked over on my craft table and saw the Basket Weave embossing folder and I immediately knew I wanted to do a flower basket.  In my pile of stamp sets I saw the Bloom and Grow stamp set and knew it would be perfect!  I love to color so this card was a lot of fun for me to design and make.  

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:

Seaside Spray

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

Crumb Cake

• cut at 2 1/4" x 2 1/2" for the basket

Purple Posy

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"

Whisper White

• cut at 4 " x 5 1/4" for the inside of the card
• cut at 4 1/8" x 5 3/8"
• cut at 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" for all your stamped images

Did you notice the beautiful 1/2" Scalloped Linen Ribbon in the Seaside Spray color?  This ribbon is available in all of the 2019-2021 In Colors.  Yay!  The Bloom and Grow stamp set has coordinating dies, Budding Blooms, and you can get them as a bundle and save 10%.

I know the new Good Morning Magnolia stamp set is going to be very popular when the new Stampin' Up! annual catalog goes live on June 4th.  It is such a beautiful stamp set with coordinating dies, designer series paper, ribbon, embossing folder and so much more!  

I saw this card online, but it wasn't watermarked, so I don't know who created it.  Isn't it beautiful?  I love to color, so this card caught my eye right away.  I used the Petal Pink - light and dark and light Mossy Meadow blends.  

I tried to color the magnolias to match the designer series paper.  I have to say, they turned out better than I thought they would.  I just love the blends markers.  

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"

Petal Pink

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"

Whisper White

• cut at 2 1/4" x 3 1/4"
• cut at 4" x 5 1/4" for inside the card
• scraps for flowers

Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper

• cut at 2" x 5 1/2"

After I stamped the Thanks sentiment, I used the Stitched Shapes framelits to cut it out.  To give the Petal Pink cardstock texture, I embossed it with the Layered Leaves embossing folder.  I also used the new 5/8" Organdy Striped Ribbon to wrap around the cardstock. 

To adhere the sentiment I used Stampin Dimensionals to give it a little bit of lift off of the layer below it.  

Most of the products that I used on this card will not be available for purchase until June 4th when the 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! annual catalog goes live. 

I was in Michigan for a few days visiting my mom and family.  It was nice the day I got there and then it got cold and rained.  It never fails whenever I go up there the weather turns cold.  Grrrr

Here are some pictures that I took while up there.

My beautiful Mom!!!

My niece Karin, nephew Jason and his son Ryan, Mom and my sister Jean

My nephews Corey and Travis.  Yes I am short LOL

Part of my family.  My sisters, Jean and Jan with her husband Rudy, two of my nephews, Corey and Travis with their wives,  Tara and Ashley

Corey's boys, Jude and Robin and Travis's daughter Raigen. 

I was able to spend some time with my friend from elementary school.  We have been friends for 49 years!  OMG!  That's a long time!  We couldn't possibly be that old!

I will be showing you how to make a fun and easy adhesive holder for your desk.  I hope you can stop by tonight over on my Stampin Scrapper Facebook page. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today.  I hope you have a fantastic Monday and week!

Every Monday night at 7:00pm I have a Facebook Live on my Stampin Scrapper Facebook page.  Since Stampin' Up! was having a day of celebrating Lovely As A Tree, I thought I should celebrate it too!  But, how was I going to celebrate it? 

One way was to share with you on my blog post on Monday my favorite Lovely As A Tree and Rooted In Nature stamp sets.  Another way was creating a fun project to demonstrate on my Facebook Live.  

As my husband, Mr. Wonderful, and I were driving home on Sunday, I noticed how pretty the trees looked against the sky.  That got my creative juices flowing on how to take that look and make it into a card.  My next step was to search Pinterest for ideas on how to do a sky background and what time of day I wanted to do.  After looking at a lot of different cards, I knew I wanted to do a sunset.  

I really like how it turned out.  I also knew I wanted to use one of the stamp sets that I hadn't used in a very long time.  As I was looking through my stamp sets, I found the Calligraphy Essentials stamp set.  It had some cobwebs on it, (not really) so it was time to brush it off and use it.  I think the sentiment is perfect for this card.  What a better way to watch the sunset and thank God for your day.  

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:

Crushed Curry

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"

Basic Black

• cut at 4 1/8" x 5 3/8"

Whisper White

• cut 2 at 4" x 5 1/4"

Here is the video showing you how to do the sponging on this card.

Now, you can create beautiful sunsets yourself!  What stamp set are you going to use on your project?

Thank you for stopping in today!  I hope you have a terrific day!  Tomorrow I am heading to Michigan to spend some time with my mom and the rest of my family.  I can't wait to see them.  It has been way too long!

I have a very special woman in my life that I love more than life itself.  She is my best friend, my confident, my cheerleader, my rock, she is my mom.  On Saturday she turned 86 years old, which is a miracle.  The doctors told my grandma that when she was born she wouldn't live pass 3 days.  My mom was born a blue baby (I don't think they use that term anymore).  She has had health issues all of her life, so it is truly a miracle that we still have her here with us.  My mom's birthday was on Saturday and I wanted to make her a special card. 

I wanted something different, but what?  The first place I go for ideas is Pinterest.  As I was looking around, I found directions on how to make a sliding pop up card.  I was so excited!  It was different and it was so easy, which I didn't expect.  I thought this was going to be so time consuming, but it wasn't.  The only part that was a little time consuming is the coloring of the rose.  I enjoy coloring, so it didn't bother me.  

You can see a little better in this picture the details on this card.  

Here is a close up of the roses that I stamped with So Saffron ink and colored with the Daffodil Delight, light and dark, Stampin' Blends.   I stamped and colored two roses, but only cut out one of them.  For all of the stamping I used the  April 2019 Paper Pumpkin stamp set.   The stamps and projects have been so beautiful lately in the Paper Pumpkin kits.  See more about Paper Pumpkin at the end of this post.  

The amazing thing about this card, is you can fold it flat to fit inside a standard size envelope. 

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:

Gorgeous Grape

• cut at 4 1/4" x 10" score at 1/2", 2 1/2", 3", 5", 7", 7 1/2", 9 1/2"
• scrap for the circle tab punch

Pear Pizzazz

• scraps for the leaves

Whisper White

• cut at 3" x 5"
• scraps for the roses

Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper

• cut at 1 7/8" x 4 1/8"
• cut at 3/8" x 4 1/8"

I made this card on my Facebook live on Monday night and people loved it!  I hope you do too.  Check out the instructions and tips I have for you on this project. 

I can't wait to get the May Paper Pumpkin and I know you are going to want it too!  Here is a video by Shelli to tell you more about it.

I love that I get to play with ink, paper and stamps like I did when I was a kid!  On my Facebook live on Monday night I showed how to make this card using the Baby Wipe technique.  Have you tried that technique before?  It is super easy and really pretty.  No two projects will ever be the same. 

All you need for this technique is 2-4 baby wipes, something to put the baby wipes in (I used one of our Standard Stamp Cases), ink refills of your color choice and stamps.  You can do this technique on any type of paper, I did mine on the Glossy White Paper.

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:

Gorgeous Grape

• cut at 5 1/2" x8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
• cut at 1 1/8" x 5 1/2"

Whisper White

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

Glossy White Paper

I haven't made a baby card in a while, so when I needed one I was so excited!  I made this card using the Animal Outing stamp set and coordinating Animal Friends Thinlits.  You can get both of these as a bundle and save 10%!  

I had a really crazy day the day I made this card and coloring relaxes me.  So, I grabbed my blends and started coloring.  These two, or should I say three, little guys are so cute!  It was fun to bring them to life with color.  On the koala bear and giraffe I used the light and dark Smoky Slate blends.  Also on the giraffe I used the the light and dark Daffodil Delight and dark Soft Suede.  For the kangaroo I used the light and dark of the Crumb Cake and Soft Suede.

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:

Call Me Clover

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

Crumb Cake

• cut at 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"

Whisper White

• cut at 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"
• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"
• scraps for the animals

Wood Textures 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"

I fussy cut these out because I totally forgot I had the thinlits for them.  Grrrr.  I used the sentiment from the same stamp set, Animal Outing.  I added the leaf ribbon, which is out of this world!  I do have a tip for you on how to adhere it to your projects.  Put a glue dot on each of the leaves and it will hold it perfectly and you won't see the adhesive. 

Yesterday I had my One Sheet Wonder Class using the Tropical Escape Suite.  We had so much fun!  Here is a picture of the ladies working on their cards.  We had a new lady join us for this class.  It was so nice to meet her and get to know her.  

Stop in tonight at 7:00pm EST as I will be creating a different type of creative fold card.  Click HERE to go to my Facebook page, Stampin Scrapper.  

Thank you for stopping by today!  I hope you have a fabulous day!

Have you made a tunnel card before?  I haven't until I made this one!  I love this type of card.  You could decorate it so many different ways.  When I started designing this card I wanted to use products from the annual catalog.  Lately, I have been doing a lot of projects with products from the occasions and Sale-A-Bration brochure.  Now, don't get me wrong, I love the the occasions catalog and Sale-A-Bration brochure, but I miss the products in the annual catalog.  So, today I am sharing a card I made using the Coffee Cafe stamp set along with the coordinating Coffee Cups framelits.  The beautiful designer series paper is from the Garden Impressions paper pack.  

Doesn't the designer series paper just pop out against the Night of Navy cardstock?  Here is a top view of the card, so you can see why it is called a tunnel card. 

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.

Last night I did a Facebook live on how to do the Block Fill Technique.  When I first saw a card like this on Facebook, created by Felicity Fernandez, I thought it was stunning.  At first I couldn't figure out how she made it.  It looked difficult.  Then I went looking to see how it was done and oh my goodness!  It is not difficult at all!   

I love making projects that look like they are hard or time consuming and really they are easy.  Then, I love teaching people how to create the project for themselves.  

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:

Basic Black

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

Flirty Flamingo 

• cut at 4 1/8" x 5 3/8"

Whisper White

• cut 2 at 4" x 5 1/4"

I did  a Facebook Live on how to make this card.  I hope you enjoy it!

Tomorrow I am participating in the What's New at SU? blog hop.  We are featuring projects from the Occasions catalog.  I can't wait to share with you my project I made for Valentine's Day.  I hope you can stop back and check it out!

Thank you for stopping by today!  I hope you  have a terrific day!
