Stamp Time Somewhere

#TGIFC220 Sketch Challenge - Stampin' Up! Daisy Lane Bundle

Hi there! Happy Friday!!! I really hope you aren't thinking to yourself, "Really, Daisy Lane, AGAIN?" Seriously, can't get enough of this bundle. So many techniques, layouts, occasions... this is a bundle I think EVERYONE NEEDS!!!

 It's so fantastic, that even though I used it in yesterday's post, I HAD to use it for today's sketch too!!!

 Even though I actually used a leftover from yesterday's project, I think this card looks COMPLETELY different!!!

 Once again I started with daisies that I embossed with White Stampin' Emboss powder on Whisper White card stock. I then punched them out with the fabulous coordinating punches!

 I created a simple water-color wash with Coastal Cabana on our AWESOME new Watercolor paper, it's so smooth and blends beautifully. After stamping the stem I added a little extra water to help it blend a little more seamlessly with the overall look. After that it was just adding the Gold Embossed sentiment. It's a pretty simple card, but sometimes the beauty is in the simplicity.

 I put together a shopping list of the items I used for these projects for you. All you have to do is clock on the image and you'll be taken right to my online store! It's a great time to add these items to your stamping stash as it's BONUS DAYS time! That means for every $50 you spend this month, you get a coupon towards your purchase next month! Pretty great, right? 

 Please remember to use hostess code 6MX3UVS2 when you order, and in addition to your BONUS DAYS coupon, you'll also receive this month's tutorial bundle, a special gift from me! This month's even features the Daisy Lane Bundle!!! How perfect is that?

OSAT Blog Hop - Down on the Farm - Daisy Style

 Hi stamping friends!!! 

     Hope you are having a wonderful summer day! I hope I don't jinx things, but we've actually been having a pretty mild summer here. Our high today is expected to be 108, but that's been about as high as we've gotten so far. Anyhow, it is hot enough to make me daydream about being almost anywhere other than in the middle of the desert. The beach, the mountains, maybe a nice country farm some where? This month our theme is Down on the Farm. I started out with visions of our awesome Over the Moon or This Little Piggy stamp sets, but my visions kind of took a bit of a turn, maybe to a little flower patch behind the barn...like a little Daisy Lane!

   Daisy Lane is probably one of my favorite bundles in the new Stampin' Up! Catalog. I have a few, and I am not sure I could pick an actual favorite (kind of like my kiddos - LOL)but I keep going back to this one! So my projects today focus on this great bundle. A sweet little country farm inspired card and wreath.

I'll start with the wreath as is was my initial inspiration. This was seriously picked and pulled from pieces in my stamp room. A simple grapevine wreath from the dollar store, and a sweet little galvanized milk can from Hobby Lobby that was still sitting in it's bag I brought it home in, just waiting for the perfect project. 

Sweet little thing, right? I can not get enough of this adorable scalloped edge ribbon!!! I want to use it everywhere! 

 All that was left was to fill it with cute little daisies! I stamped the daisy image on Whisper White card stock with Versamark Ink, and embossed them with White Stampin' Emboss powder. It was kind of tricky to see them, but sponging their centers with some Daffodil Delight ink made it a little easier to line up in the coordinating punch. After gluing them together, I just added them around the wreath.

 I managed to resist putting one more daisy on my wreath, so that I could add it to my card. I LOVE the bright, country feel of this color combo, gingham and scallop edging! The stem image is stamped on the Crumb Cake card stock with Early Espresso ink, then colored in with Watercolor pencils. After coloring, I ran it through my embossing machine in the Subtles Texture folder. There is a little Wink of Stella on the word friend, but that is usually pretty hard to photograph - but I promise it looks cute!

 I hope you get a chance to check out the whole hop. There will surely be some fantastic inspiration for you! Here's everyone who's participating this month!

 

 I put together a shopping list of the items I used for these projects for you. All you have to do is clock on the image and you'll be taken right to my online store!

We Create Red, White, and Blue Blog Hop

 Hello, and Happy JULY!!! I LOVE celebrating our Independence Day on the 4th - it's one of my favorite holidays. It's also the month we finish up American Legion Baseball, sneak in a much needed family vacation and start gearing up for back to school. It's nice to take some much needed breaks in the stamp room. Even if I am re-organizing and redecorating, and everything is a mess! LOL

 

 I'm really not sure how this came to my head, but boy am I glad it did!!! It's one of my faves, and looks great on my little shelf, ready to celebrate!

 There's not any stamping, just some cutting and die-cutting, and a steady hand with the glue. Best part, ALL of these patterned papers come in one awesome little 6x6 Designer Series Paper Stack - the Neutrals.

 The flag itself measures 3 1/4" x 5", and all of the stripes are 1/4". To tell you the truth, I was kind of on the fence with this alphabet die set - not anymore! Now I just can't wait to play more!

 I can not wait to see what everyone else on the hop has created this month. I am sure that there are going to plenty of ideas that I am sure to be inspired by!!! Next up is my beautiful friend Kimberley!

Have you seen the new catalog? It's awesome!!! Let me know if you would like me to send one to you. It's full of great new stamp sets, new accessories, and of course, the new In-Colors!!!

I truly appreciate the opportunity to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. When you place your order this month, please use the hostess code N9PNMGW6 for a special thank you treat from me!

Fancy Friday Blog Hop - Favorite New Annual Catalog Item and #tgifc218 With Sympathy

Hello and Happy Friday!!! It's my fave Friday of the month - the one when I try to combine two different challenges! It doesn't always work, but it sure did this month thanks to the GORGEOUS Magnolia Lane Suite! This month Fancy Friday is showing off our favorite new items from the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.

 

 All of the beautifully coordinated items in this suite make creating SO EASY! Not to mention it's pretty easy to color for a perfect focal point. Today I used the Ivory and light Petal Pink for the flower,  and the Mossy Meadows for the leaves. 

 I absolutely LOVE how this suite looks with gold embossing. I thought I would have fun today and mix up the fancy with something more rustic, so I added the Corrugated Crumb Cake piece as a base.

 Next up on our hop is Rhoda! I can't wait to see what everyone else loves from the new catalog! Enjoy!

A Paper Pumpkin Thing - A Little Smile

 If you have been looking around online at all, one of the things you might hear most about this month's Paper Pumpkin kit - A Little Smile is that so many people absolutely LOVE it!!!! I am one of them!

 The hardest part about setting out to creating an alternative project with this kit was where to begin! Here's what was in the kit. It was designed with the idea of making up 16 sweet little note cards that you could pass along like little Random Acts of Kindness.

 I knew I needed the right inspiration. A friend of mine was over the other day and their daughter was hanging out with me.  When she saw the kit she said,  "That's JUST like my bedroom!" I knew I wanted to make her something special that she could use,  so I started in! 

 I can't wait to give it to her! I truly hope she loves it! 

Those little, sparkly starfish and sand dollars are just amazing. 

 I did create the entire project from scratch,  sketching out dimensions as I went.  I'll try to "reverse engineer" this and add some dimensions soon. 

 There are fantastic ideas out there this month. You'll find so much inspiration in these blogs! I hope you enjoy! 

 

 

Have you seen the new catalog? It's awesome!!! Let me know if you would like me to send one to you. It's full of great new stamp sets, new accessories, and of course, the new In-Colors!!!

#tgifc216 Sketch Challenge Stampin' Up! Country Home

 Hi there and HAPPY FRIDAY!!! It's been a little quiet here this week as my two older boys are both away at youth camps, so it's just me and my little dude. It has given me a little bit of time to get caught up in the stamp room. I also was able to sneak in a quiet afternoon to create for this week's #tgif sketch challenge.

 If it looks familiar, I TOTALLY tried to double up on yesterday's One Stamp At A Time challenge, but my lovely friend Andrea TOTALLY called me out on it, so I HAAAADDD to create something NEW for today! I'm kind of glad she did, because in all honesty, it's probably the best card I have created in a LOOOONNNNNGGG time!

 Like I am seriously SWOONING over this one!!!

 Now, considering that this uses the "no line watercolor" technique, a little embossing and some fussy cutting, I would definitely say that this is a card for a more avid crafter to re-create, but the results!!!

 I used the Shimmer White Paper to do the main image, along with I don't even know how many ink pads to use for inks as watercolors! To create the sentiment, I inked the words with Purple Posy ink and then used my Highland Heather marker to add a little bit of an ombre look before fussy cutting.

Have you seen the new catalog? It's awesome!!! Let me know if you would like me to send one to you. It's full of great new stamp sets, new accessories, and of course, the new In-Colors!!!

OSAT Blog Hop - Something Old - Something New - Stampin' Up! Geared Up Garage and last minute Father's Day Idea!

 Hello! I am so excited about this month's One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop!!! Why? Well, it's letting me play with stuff I got to keep from the last catalog and stuff from the BRAND NEW ONE!!!

I had to really think outside of the box on this one though. You see, I don't have a TON of new stuff to play with yet. I also tried to use what I DID get for an occasion I knew was coming up. Well, what better reason than to make another Father's Day card?

 What's new and what's carried over you might ask? Well, I used the new 2019-2021 In Color Designer Papers in the AMAZING new color Pretty Peacock, and a new twine. For the "old" I used the Geared Up Garage stamp set that carried over from the Occasions catalog into the new big catalog.

 I thought I would add in a quick little gift idea for anyone that might have put off shopping or maybe just needing something super budget-friendly!

 I thought that it would be great way to give Dad a special "coupon"

 Add a little extra on the inside - remember, we want to make it special!

 You are going to LOVE this month's hop - there are so many great ideas! Make sure you check them all out!

Have you seen the new catalog? It's awesome!!! Let me know if you would like me to send one to you. It's full of great new stamp sets, new accessories, and of course, the new In-Colors!!!

PCC340 - Precious Pets - Stampin' Up!Let it Ride!

 Hi there!!! I'm back today with some Paper Craft Crew inspiration for you - this week we are focusing on our furry, or feathered, or - well....I guess there's lots of different skinned animal friends! LOL!!! 

  I was a little concerned, because I currently don't have a pet, nor do I have a lot of pet sets. At one point I considered using the Kangaroo from the Animal Outing set, until I looked over and found my Let It Ride set. I've never been lucky enough to own a horse, although I would sure love to.

 I think that sometimes this set might be looked at as a "masculine" set, although I really wanted to add a bit of a feminine touch with the gingham print and scalloped edge from the new ribbon! What do you think?

 One thing that I love about this set is the style of artwork. I wanted to make it look more like a charcoal drawing, so after I stamped it in my Early Espresso ink, I ran over all the lines with a Blender Pen, and check out the gorgeous effect that gave this!

 

 I think it's SO PRETTY (and simple). Try it with some of your line art stamps and see what effect you get. I do think that this works a little better when you use the Thick Whisper White card stock, as it does hold up a little better, even though you only need to lightly trace over the lines.

Have you seen the new catalog? It's awesome!!! Let me know if you would like me to send one to you. It's full of great new stamp sets, new accessories, and of course, the new In-Colors!!!

#tgifc215 Color Challenge - Stampin' Up! Geared Up! Garage Father's Day card

 Hi there - Happy Friday! It's the first Friday of the month which means that over at TGIF Challenges we have a brand new color challenge for you! I really like this months - I needed the cool color combo, it's starting to get hot here! We hit our first 100 degree day. My poor kiddo passed out at baseball conditioning. Sometimes I really don't like living in the desert... ANYHOW - COOOOL colors!!!

 I know I've been sharing some new things from the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog, but I was excited to use a set that carried over from our last Occasions catalog, Geared Up Garage. This card ended up going in a TOTALLY different direction than I originally had in my head, but I still love how it turned out!

 It's kind of on the "softer" side, with the watercolor, die-cut gears. Once I made them, I really liked the look, so then I had to switch gears and make the softer look work. So instead of adding a lot of extras, I decided to keep the focus on them and keep the remainder pretty simple.

  Have you seen the new catalog? It's awesome!!! Let me know if you would like me to send one to you. It's full of great new stamp sets, new accessories, and of course, the new In-Colors!!!

#tgif214 and Fancy Friday - Create a set and Designer Series Paper Love

 Hey there! Happy Friday! It's the last Friday of the month already!!! That means I am usually pulling double duty with a TGIF post and a Fancy Friday post. I LOVE when I can combine the 2 challenges! I totally did with this one!

 

 I was DYING to play with some new things from the upcoming catalog, and being as we will be able to order from it at the beginning of next week, I thought, "hey, why not?" I AM SO OVER THE MOON EXCITED that we will have gingham print paper in EVERY COLOR!!! I decided to use the gingham with the new In Color Designer Series Paper for this year and pair it with the super awesome Over the Moon stamp set....take a peek.

OMG! I am in love with these little cows! And the GINGHAM!!! Couldn't you just die they're so cute? I colored the cows with my Stampin Blends and then added some Paper Piecing to give each one cute little matching boots and flower! EEEK.... the cuteness!!!

 I also thought this would be a great way to share all of the AMAZING new InColors!!!  I'm sad to be losing some of our current papers, but there are going to be so many fun new Designer Series Papers in the upcoming catalog! When you follow the hop around, you'll probably see a little of both!

Next up is our super talented Charlet!!! You'll love what she came up with!!!

I truly appreciate the opportunity to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. When you place your order this month, please use the hostess code N9PNMGW6 for a special thank you treat from me!

A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop - Hugs from Shelli

I'm so excited to be sharing with you today! I'm hoping in my very first Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop! I couldn't be more honored either,  this kit was designed by Shelli Gardener herself! It's Spring, it's classic, it's soft, it's romantic - it's just outright dreamy! HOW do you do justice to a kit like this? Well, if you're like me - not without a LOT of contemplation. Although sure enough, once I got going, I had more ideas than time! LOL Funny how that works! Anyhow, I really did agonize over this one! For some reason I was really stuck on the idea of doing a home decor item, but just couldn't settle on WHAT! I searched all over my stamp room, all over my house - HMMM.... Finally, I opened the right drawer and found a beautiful pair of taper candles! Plain, classic, white candles - PERFECT! Now to just hunt down a few other things....

 It's been FOREVER since I made stamped candles, but I am so happy I did! I have a person in mind to give these too, but I kind of want to keep them for myself too!!!! (Good thing I can make another set, right?)

 These are 10" candles, and at first I thought it would be super easy, just stamp a bunch of feathers all over a piece of tissue paper with Crumb Cake ink, melt it in to the candle with my heat tool and TA-DAH, but I got a little weird about the seam and where all the feathers were, so I cut out each feather individually, stuck them in place with a TINY bit of glue and then got the heat tool out.

 To make the cute little wrapper, I actually cut apart one of the pretty, coordinating envelopes and used the inside pattern. The twines, tag, and little flower embellishments are all included in the kit!!!

 This is going to be one AMAZING Blog Hop, with almost 30 blogs for you to visit to soak up as much inspiration as you possibly can with this fun kit! Make sure that you check them all out!

#tgifc213 Stampin' Up! Gingham Gala and This Little Piggy Make Me Happy!!!

 Hello!!! Happy Friday!!! It's our first day of Summer Break here in Vegas, although you wouldn't know it from our weather. It's been highs in the 70s people! That's like 20 degrees cooler than usual... although honestly, I'm SO GOOD with it! I hid in my stamp room a little the other day to create for this week's #TGIF Challenge - and it makes me so happy!

 

 I LOVE Gingham. Like a LOT, always have. I was really hoping that we'd get gingham papers in the new catalog. Let's just say, I'm pretty happy! I mean, if you love gingham, having it in every color is just serious happiness! Woot Woot!!!

 Until then, I am going to continue LOVING every last piece of Gingham Gala! Blue and Yellow has always been one of my happy color combos, so I kind of thought that this little piggy would be a perfect fit for this happy, country-ish color combo.

 The little piggy was colored with Petal Pink Blends on Thick Whisper White card stock, then cut out and layered on to the Balmy Blue small gingham print.I also cut out a few extra little flowers to add to the sweetness. I think that this little set is a great set to have on your stampin' shelf - I know it's one I go to a lot!

PCC338 Graduation Card with a Stampin' Up! Sneak Peek!

 Hi!!!! Welcome back!!! Well, it's last day of school eve here, so I am gearing up for a fun summer full of baseball and rowdy boys! Until then, I'm going to get in as much uninterrupted stamping time as I can. I was so honored that a friend of mine asked me to create a special card for her daughter who is graduating high school this week. I found the perfect sketch in this week's Paper Craft Crew sketch. (click on the sketch below to see all of the team's projects)

 I decided to use another upcoming stamp set from the upcoming Stampin' Up! catalog, Above the Clouds. What's super awesome about it is that it's going to be offered as a bundle with a PUNCH! I love punch bundles, don't you?

I had a lot of fun working with this bundle and really look forward to using it more, it has beautiful images and beautiful sentiments. 

I hope she loves it!!! Her school colors are Royal Blue and White, so I think it just lent itself to this set. I wanted to make sure it was extra special, so I used Shimmer card stock for the clouds, and built up each of the layers...

Of course because it's a special card, I had to do the inside as well!

 I know a lot of times I like making simpler cards, but it was really fun to make this extra special card to celebrate this young lady's accomplishments! The stamp set and punch won't be available until June 4th, but you will for sure want to get your hands on this one!

SU Style Home Decor Blog Hop

 Hi!!! Welcome to this month's SU Style Home Decor Blog Hop! So glad that you're joining us! Hopefully you'll find some great inspiration along the way for using your Stampin' Up! supplies in some fun, new ways!

  A few weeks ago our oldest boys were part of a fundraiser for our church youth. It was an amazing Disney theme, and all of the kid's families were asked to help out by creating table centerpieces. There were some GORGEOUS centerpieces, too! Well, having all boys, and 2 of the 3 being older, I don't have a lot of Disney on hand - well - once again Stampin' Up! to the rescue!

 I did a little online research, then pulled out a TON of punches, dies, and scraps of cardstock!

 It was so fun to dig in to my supplies to see what I could use to recreate these iconic characters. I don't do it often, but I did use one of our retired punches to make the bows for Minnie and Donald, but you could still easily create them without that punch.

 I was kind of in a creative, mad rush to get them done, so I hope the supply list is correct! LOL. If you want to recreate something like this, just start PLAYING - circle and oval dies and punches and lots of scraps! I kind of want to play around some more to see what other characters I can recreate!

 Please make sure you check out the rest of this great hop!!!

#tgif212 Paper Flowers

Happy Friday! Hopefully you know what Friday means it means time for some TGIF inspiration. This week we are bringing you projects featuring Paper Flowers.  You really should head over to the TGIF blog and check out the beautiful bouquet of projects our designers have pulled together for you. 

 I couldn't help myself,  I had to play with the Good Morning Magnolia Suite again. I thought it would be a perfect way to turn this special embroidery hoop from my grandmother into something even more special! 

 I LOVE the way it turned out!  I slipped a 6"x6" piece of the Designer Series Paper in the hoop, and then crafted the spray of flowers with the dies. To make the center flower larger, I added a few petal punched with our new Balloon punch! I stamped the large flower image a few times to get the leaves,  which i colored in with my Blends. 

 Want to see something that some might think is a little funny? One of the things I love about magnolias is the underside of the leaf. Even though no one might ever see the underside of these ones, I wanted to make them special,  so I colored  them too! 

It's a small touch,  but it makes me smile.
