Stampin' Up! Press On

Check out some of the new products from the Holiday Mini Catalog 
I used when creating this card!
 
This is a fun card using the 'Press On' stamp set!
And I combined it with the Poppy Parade DSP that 
is in the Trimming The Town DSP pack.  

I am a hot drink lover (not a Starbucks fan)-
but I think that this stamp set is totally adorable & totally me.
Notice how I stamped the coffee beans in the background, doing a 
tone on tone look with Crumb Cake card stock & Crumb Cake ink. 

Check out how I used the Rectangle Postage Stamp Punch in 2 different ways!
It is the normal (regular punch) size with the coffee cups.
And then for the words I punched it, slid it back into the punch (from the top side, 
so that I could hang onto it) & punched it again to make it narrower.

stamp set:  'Press On'

Simple Saturday with Stampin' Up! Merry Moose

Today is simple Saturday!! 
And LOOK at this AWESOME NEW Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder!
Oh my gosh- I LOVE IT! 

I used this as my main background......
and then added just a couple of trees, the moose & some words.
This is a super simple card for me, but I really like it!
It sure makes a great all occasion guy card!
 
NOTICE how I got 2 colors of trees, using just one ink pad!
To stamp the trees like this, I stamped the one on the left full strength
and then DO NOT RE-INK your stamp- just stamp the tree again. 
This will give you a lighter shad for the other tree.
This technique is called shadow stamping.

You can't tell by the photos very well, but I did add Wink of Stella 
to the 2 evergreen trees that are in the circle.  
You can never go wrong with a little sparkle!

stamp set:  'Lots to Celebrate' (words); 'Merry Moose'
card stock:
  • Old Olive- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 4 1/4"- fold in half for card base & emboss using the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder

  • Whisper White- 3 x 3"- die cut stitched circle & then stamp trees; 4 x 5 1/4"- for inside of card
inks:  Soft Suede; Old Olive
other:  Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine; Stitched Shapes (Large Circle); Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder; Moose Punch; dimensionals; Wink of Stella

I hope you have a SPECIAL Saturday!!

Starburst Fall card

Here is a fun fall card!
 
I haven't done a starburst card for a long time.....so I "played" when making this fall card!
I used some DSP & I also stamped some card stock leave images too!
For the stamped leaf images, I used my 'Lots to Celebrate' stamp set.
How did I do it?
  • I took 2 pieces of DSP that measured 1 1/2 x 4" each.
  • I laid them in my paper cutter, at opposite diagonals- like shown above & cut them both at the same time.
  • I then took 2 pieces of Cajun Craze cardstock that also measured 1 1/2 x 4" each
  • I stamped leaves on them (from my 'Lots to Celebrate') stamp set.  
  • I laid them in my paper cutter, at opposite diagonals- like shown above with the DSP & cut them both at the same time.
  • I then added them to a piece of 3 3/4 x 5" Very Vanilla card stock. 
  • I started by marking the top edge of the card stock at 2 1/2" for the center of the card.  This is where I butted up the 2 different center strips to start the starburst.
  • I added the other strips then to completely cover this 3 3/4 x 5" Very Vanilla card stock. 
  •  This is what it looked like when I got all of the diagonal strips adhered.

  • I turned it over & used my scissors to trip off the edges, all of the way around it.
stamp set:  'Beautiful Autumn'
card stock:
  • Early Espresso- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 4 1/4"- fold in half for card base; 5 x 1/4"
  • Cajun Craze-4 x 5 1/4"; 1 1/2 x 4"- cut at diagonal; 1 1/2 x 4"- cut at diagonal
  • Very Vanilla- 3 3/4 x 5"- adhere the diagonals to this; 1 1/2" strip- stamp words onto & die cut out with Tasteful Label Dies; 5 x 1/2"; 4 x 5 1/4"- for inside of card
designer paper:  Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP- 1 1/2 x 4"; 1 1/2 x 4"
ink:  Cajun Craze & Early Espresso

Iowa got hit hard last week with lots of storm damage.  So many people have lots & lots of damage to their homes, businesses, farms, crops, etc.  It has just been a huge disaster!   I know that we got some damage here, but ours was mostly just trees, house shingles & some downed corn, as we were on the bottom edge of the storm.  But several of my customers & some of our family- were hit very hard by the storm.  They have all been in my thoughts & prayers.  What a year 2020 has been!

I used the Wink of Stella over the dragonflies & over the little flowers that I didn't add pearls onto.
