Birthday – Stamp it up with Jaimie

Stampin’ Up! Mystery Stamping Birthday Card

Published on September 24, 2021September 30, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie5 Comments

Tuesday night my Art & Soul team was invited to participate in this month’s Mystery Stamping.

Ahead of time I give them the measurements and the very vague product they’ll need (eg: three ink colors, a long sentiment, an embossing folder of their choice).

Then I describe each step and what they’re to do. Naturally because we’re all using different product, the cards are similar but each unique.

Here’s what I made as the sample (even though they didn’t see it). Be sure to check out the bottom of this post to see what the team made.

Stampin’ Up! Party Puffins Birthday Card

My card starts off with Poppy Parade cardstock.

I then took a panel of Flirty Flamingo cardstock and embossed it using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder. I put it next to a pattern from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper and matted it on Basic White cardstock.

I then stamped the sentiment from the Party Puffins Stamp Set in Memento Black ink and cut it out using the Harvest Dies, adhering it down with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the puffin in Memento Black ink and colored him in using Poppy Parade, Flirty Flamingo, Pumpkin Pie, and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut him out and adhered him over the sentiment.

Lastly, I added a couple of rhinestones around the card.

Thanks for checking out my card today!

Now for what the Art & Soul team made.

Stampin’ Up! Delivering Cheer Birthday Card

Published on August 27, 2021August 26, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie1 Comment

Did you catch my card on Wednesday?

I used the Delivering Cheer Stamp and made a super cute Christmas card.

Stampin’ Up! Delivering Cheer Birthday Card

It was part of my Facebook live I did last week, in which I also showed this super adorable birthday card using the same Delivering Cheer Stamp Set.

I made the same basic design but swapped out the Christmas DSP for a pattern from the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper.

Instead of stamping on a Basic White panel, I stamped and then cut it out using the Scalloped Contours Dies.

Lastly, instead of paper piecing the present and bow, I paper pieced her skirt using the same pattern of Designer Series Paper.

To color in the presents, I used Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, and Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers.

The outside sentiment came from the Sweets & Treats Stamp Set and the inside from the Sunny Sentiments Stamp Set.

If you’re not familiar with paper piecing, you can check out the video below. It’s the beginning of the Christmas card, but I walk you through how to do the skirt.

Stampin’ Up! All Squared Away Birthday Card

Well, that’s how I came about getting the All Squared Away Bundle.

**This pack of paper is HUGE and 15% off right now!!!! Grab another pack of DSP while you’re at it, and I’ll send you my 9 Tips for Using Designer Series Paper! More details at the end of this post.

I then took a Soft Sea Foam pattern from the Subtles Designer Series Paper, matted it on Basic White cardstock, and adhered it to the card front.

I used the Floral Squares Dies to cut out three, well, floral squares and then cut three squares from Soft Sea Foam, Calypso Coral, and Balmy Blue cardstock and adhered them over each other. I adhered the Calypso Coral one down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the All Squared Away Stamp Set in Calypso Coral ink and added a couple of Artistry Blooms Sequins the squares.

Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Birthday Card

Published on June 28, 2021June 28, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie3 Comments

You can find inspiration anywhere for paper crafting.

One of my favorite places to turn to for inspiration is Pinterest. It’s jam packed with all things inspiration and not just cards.
You can find nature images and paintings and the such and you can also find a ton of color inspiration.

I’ve actually created a board just for color inspiration and that’s how today’s card came about. Check it ou t. You’ll even find the inspiration for today’s card that I pinned a couple of days ago!

My card starts off Gray Granite cardstock which I covered with a Gray Granite pattern from the Neutrals Designer Series Paper.

I next took a panel of Basic White cardstock and using the Stamparatus (which is key to getting the perfect alignment of stamped birthdays) I stamped the birthday from the Biggest Wish Stamp Set in So Saffron, Gray Granite, Pear Pizzazz, and Shaded Spruce ink.

I then matted this on a panel of Basic White and adhered it down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Next I stamped the “happy” in Shaded Spruce ink and fussy cut it out, adhering it down with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I next stamped the balloons from the Hippo Happiness Stamp Set in So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz, and Shaded Spruce ink and cut it out with the Hippo & Friends Dies. I stamped the strings in Gray Granite ink and fussy cut them out.

Thanks for checking out my card today.

Isn’t this a beautiful combination of colors. You probably think masculine card when you see it (as I’ve used it today). But I’ve created the same layout, same colors, just a pretty, girly card with flowers and bling.

I’m sharing it this week in my Tips & Updates email. If you don’t already receive it, you can head over here. You’ll get to see the feminine version of today’s card tomorrow!! Don’t miss out!

Stampin’ Up! Party Puffins Birthday Card

Published on June 14, 2021June 14, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie6 Comments

You know when you tell yourself you don’t NEED that stamp set…
and then you see everyone making the most adorable cards with it and suddenly you NEED it immediately?!

Am I the only one?
That’s what happened with the Party Puffins Stamp Set and I am so glad I got it!!

My card starts off with Bermuda Bay cardstock which I covered with a pattern from the Snail Mail Designer Series Paper.

**The Snail Mail Designer Series Paper is retiring and only available right now while supplies last! So don’t wait!!

I then took a panel of Basic White cardstock and used the Stamparatus to stamp the puffin in Memento Black ink.

I used the Stamparatus because I wanted a really dark, crisp stamped image and would highly recommend using it if you’re stamping with the Party Puffins Stamp.

On a separate piece of Basic Black, I stamped three fish, the puffin with the party hat, and the sentiment. I colored everything in using the Bermuda Bay, Pumpkin Pie, and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers,

I fussy cut the fish out and the party hat off and adhered them down. I then added a few rhinestones around the fish.

Stampin’ Up! Sweet as a Peach Birthday Card

Published on June 8, 2021June 8, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie10 Comments

Birthday cards are probably the most sent cards. There are always plenty of birthdays coming up that need a card.

This month’s Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop theme is “birthday.” Have fun hopping through the blogs getting lots of inspiration!!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet as a Peach Birthday Card

My card starts off with Polished Pink cardstock which I cut 8-1/2 x 4-1/4 and scored at 4-1/4 for a square card. I embossed the front using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder.

I then used the Hippo & Friends Dies and cut out a Basic White label. I stamped the sentiment from the Sweet as a Peach Stamp Set in Polished Pink ink.

I stamped the branch from the Sweet as a Peach Stamp Set in Evening Evergreen ink, the flowers in Polished Pink ink (including the little centers), and then cut it out with the Peach Dies. I adhered it down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I then tied a Polished Pink bow to go over the branch and added a few Jewels around.

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Birthday Card

Published on June 7, 2021June 7, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie4 Comments

The Artistic Dies are GORGEOUS and really make a statement.

I love the floral image, as well as the big leaf image and think I’ll be coming back to play with these dies a lot.

Today I used the floral die for a simply designed card.

My card starts off with Thick Basic White cardstock.

On another panel of Basic White, using a Blending Brush, I added a little Poppy Parade to the corner. I then adhered this down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I then used the Poppy Parade pattern from the Ombre Specialty Paper and cut out a floral image using the Artistic Dies. I adhered this down using liquid glue only on the center.

The Artistically Inked Stamp Set has a great birthday sentiment, but I wanted one more scripty, so I stamped the sentiment from the Sweet Ice Cream Stamp Set in Memento Black ink, fussy cut it out, and adhered it down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Lastly, I added some rhinestones around and a silver bow.

Thanks for checking out my project today!!! I hope you feel inspired to create beautiful, simple cards!!!

Today’s card was inspired by this week’s Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.

Stampin’ Up! Masculine Biggest Wish Birthday Card

Published on June 3, 2021June 2, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie7 Comments

For this week’s color challenge, I’m using the Biggest Wish Stamp Set to make a birthday card!

This stamp set has quickly become a favorite because of its big, chunky words that can really fill a card with lots of color!

This card will actually be my son’s birthday card. His birthday is Sunday and I always enjoy designing a card specifically for each of my kids.

My card starts off with Basic Gray cardstock which I covered with a pattern from the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper.

I then took a panel of Basic White cardstock and stamped the birthday from the Biggest Wish Stamp Set in Real Red, Basic Gray, Daffodil Delight, and Bermuda Bay ink. I used the Stamparatus to stamp so that I got a perfect, even line of words.

I then stamped the happy over in Memento Black ink.

I matted this on Real Red cardstock and then adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin’ Up! Oh Snap Birthday Card

Published on April 22, 2021April 21, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie8 Comments

All this week I’ve been sharing cards using the 2021-2023 In Colors. Today, I’m sharing a card that uses Pale Papaya.

This week’s Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop is a theme challenge, “Things with Wings.” I decided to use a not to obvious option – the Oh Snap Stamp Set. Have fun hopping through the blogs!

My card starts off with Thick Basic White cardstock.

I then adhered a pattern from the True Love Designer Series Paper to the left of the card.

Using the Stitched So Sweetly, I cut out a panel from Pale Papaya cardstock and another panel from the NEW Ombre Specialty Paper. It’s actually not that long, but I snipped it in half and adhered it so it looks like it’s a long panel.

I then stamped the crocodile, bird, and fish in Memento Black ink. I colored them in using Granny Apple Green (croc), a tad of Daffodil Delight (bird), and Pale Papaya (fish) Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut them out and adhered them down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Lastly, I stamped part of a sentiment from the Oh Snap Stamp Set in Memento Black ink and snipped the end in a banner.
