Stampin’ Up! Mother’s Day Gift Giving Idea

Published on April 16, 2021April 15, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie1 Comment

Mother’s Day is coming up and with it a great opportunity to say thank you to mom!

Showing moms gratitude on Mother’s Day goes beyond even our biological mom. It can be a step-mom, grandma, daughter who is a mom, a mother figure, or a good friend who is a mom.

All moms deserve to be acknowledged, praised, and thanked.

I have a great gift idea for that special mom in your life – a Box of Cards!!

Moms love to mail cards and a gift box full of five beautifully handmade cards with coordinating envelopes will be just the thing she wants for Mother’s Day.

The acetate box is decorated itself making it easy for Mom to store the cards and easy for you to gift them.

Included in the five cards is a thank you card, congratulations card, birthday card, get well soon card, and a general greetings card.

Each card comes with a specially coordinating envelope.

The cost is $20, including shipping.

You can order your Gift of Cards here. Please know that there are a limited number available so don’t wait!

If you’re looking to give the Gift of Cards in time for Mother’s Day, please order by April 30th!

Use this host code – CK4ZPGEX – when your order is $50 or more (before shipping and taxes) and receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any item valued up to $9 in any current catalog.

Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers Thank You Card

Published on April 15, 2021April 14, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie9 Comments

I have a great thank you card for you today using the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle.

It fit this week’s Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop perfectly!

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

Good news: The fun In Good Taste DSP will be carrying over into the new 2021-2022 Annual Catalog!!!

Next, I stamped the sunflower and leaf images from the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp in Memento Black ink on Basic White cardstock. I used the new…and gorgeous Soft Succulent (leaves), Pale Papaya, Pumpkin Pie, and Crumb Cake (flower) Stampin’ Blends to color it in. I cut it out using the Sunflower Dies.

I used the same dies to cut out a few sprigs from Crumb Cake cardstock. I adhered the sunflower down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set in one of the new 2021-2023 In Colors, Soft Succulent, and adhered a small panel of Soft Succulent cardstock underneath.

The new Annual Catalog comes with a new bundle of twine called the Baker’s Twine Essentials Combo Pack, which includes Crumb Cake twine, which I wound around under the sentiment. Lastly, I added a few Gilded Gems.

SNEAK PEEK Stampin’ Up! Hand-Penned Thank You Card

Published on April 14, 2021April 14, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie2 Comments

Happy Wednesday!!!

All this week we’re talking about gratitude. I hope it’s inspired you to view your days through a lens of gratitude.

Some days are easier than others, let’s face it. Friday we might have snow here in Upstate NY, while today is warm and sunny.

Some days you can’t seem to catch a break, and others it’s like you’re walking on sunshine. (I bet you just started singing the song.)

Whatever your day seems to bring you, let’s be challenged to approach it with gratitude!

Now on to today’s card…

New catalogs are always exciting and today I’m sharing a beautiful card I made last week using a new bundle in the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog, the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle. This bundle has beautiful floral images and two-step stamping to stamp the inside of the florals.

My favorite part of the card is the gold bee and the card front cut on an edge using the Basic Borders Dies.

I’ll be back tonight with another card. I’ll be using another suite from the new Annual Catalog, the Pansy Patch Bundle. Join me at 7:30 EST over on my Facebook page.

Stampin’ Up! Hydrangea Haven Mother’s Day Card

Published on April 13, 2021April 18, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie6 Comments

This week we’re talking about showing gratitude and for today I have a Mother’s Day card using the Hydrangea Haven Bundle.

The card may not come straight out and say thank you, but I think you’d agree that Mother’s Day is like 24 hours dedicated to saying thank you to mom.

Now, let’s be clear, I say mom, but it can be a mother figure, step-mom, grandma, or a friend who happens to be a mom.

Let’s take some time today to think about what mom in your life could use a thank you – you know, that mom who gives and gives and deserves some acknowledgment and gratitude for all they do!

Now on to the card details…

My card starts off with Highland Heather cardstock, on which I adhered two patterns from the Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper. I covered the seam with a piece of Gorgeous Grape ribbon.

Next, I took a panel of Basic White cardstock and stamped the “splotch” from the Hydrangea Haven Stamp Set (from the top down) in Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Pear Pizzazz, and Old Olive ink. Over that I stamped the hydrangea image in Versamark ink, sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder, and heat set it.

I stamped the sentiment from the Hydrangea Haven Stamp Set in Gorgeous Grape ink and matted it, as well as the other Basic White panel, on Gorgeous Grape cardstock.

I then added a couple of Pastel Pearls and a Rhinestone around the sentiment and added a Gorgeous Grape bow.

*Tip: I always tie the bow separate and just adhere it over. Firstly because I always do a fork bow and secondly because it’s just easier!

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Friendship Card

Published on April 9, 2021April 8, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie1 Comment

It’s Friday.
We made it ya’ll!!!

Accomplishment. It’s one of my words, like I live and breathe it. I love the feeling of accomplishment and when we get to Friday, I always take a deep sighhhh…accomplishment!

So here’s to an awesome weekend ahead after a week full of accomplishment!

My card today is one I shared last week over on YouTube. Did you know I do a weekly YouTube live tutorial every Tuesday at 1:00 EST? Well, now you know to put it on your calendar, set an alarm, and head over to subscribe to my YouTube channel so you don’t miss any of the fun!!!

My card is a simple one with lots of fun layering. It starts off with Pool Party cardstock. I then took a panel of Basic White cardstock and stamped the Birch image over it in Sahara Sand ink and then matted it on a panel of Bumblebee cardstock.

I took another panel of Basic White cardstock and stamped the images from the Beautiful Friendship Stamp Set in Pool Party, Pear Pizzazz, and Bumblebee ink. I then matted this on Pear Pizzazz cardstock and I wrapped around some Bumblebee ribbon in a knot.

…do these colors look familiar?? I used them earlier this week in this card. No sense in reinventing the wheel if you like the way something looks – use the same colors, use the same design!

I stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Friendship Stamp Set in Versamark ink on Pool Party cardstock, sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder, and heat set it. I cut it out using the Hippo & Friends Dies.

Lastly, I added a few Opal Rounds next to the sentiment.

Published on April 6, 2021April 5, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie3 Comments

Today, I’m switching things up.

I’ll be going live at 1:00 pm EST over on Facebook instead of YouTube. I’ll be doing an unboxing of all the new Annual Catalog goodies I preordered, as well as a stamped color comparison of the new 2021-2023 In Colors.

My card starts off with Pear Pizzazz cardstock.

I then took a panel of Basic White cardstock and stamped the brick from the Welcoming Window a few times across the front (stamping off first for a lighter shade for some of them). I then matted this on another panel of Basic White cardstock.

Next I stamped the window in Misty Moonlight ink and the shutters in Pear Pizzazz ink. In the window I stamped the pot in Smoky Slate and the plant in Pear Pizzazz ink. I cut these out, along with a flower box from Misty Moonlight cardstock using the Window Flower Box Dies, adhering them down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Lastly, I stamped the sentiment from the Welcoming Window Stamp Set in Versamark ink on Misty Moonlight cardstock, sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder, and heat set it. I cut it out using Tasteful Labels Dies.

This week we start renovation to add a second bathroom to our home. Our family of five, including three girls, desperately needs this addition.

I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink, sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder, and heat set it. I cut it out with the Stitched Rectangles Dies, adhering it down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
