Stampin’ Up! Plentiful Plants Thank You Card

Published on June 11, 2021June 10, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie1 Comment

It’s Friday!!!!

Who’s doing a little happy – or big – dance today?!

I have a great card to share with you today, but be sure to check out something super fun and exciting coming up – all the details are at the bottom of this post. Hint: It involves this suite of product!

Stampin! Up! Plentiful Plants Thank You Card

My card today starts off with Mint Macaron cardstock, which I embossed using the Macrame Embossing Folder.

I then matted a pattern from the Bloom Where You’re Planted Designer Series Paper on Basic White cardstock.

I used the Plentiful Plants Bundle to create my plants. I stamped the pots in Flirty Flamingo ink for a pop of color and the plants in Mint Macaron and Pear Pizzazz ink. I cut them out, along with the macrame holders using the coordinating Perfect Plants Dies and adhered them down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Plentiful Plants Stamp Set in Flirty Flamingo Ink and cut it out with the Stitched Rectangles Dies, adhering it down with Dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a few Genial Gems around the plants.

Thanks for checking out my project today.

I did a live tutorial on how to make it this past Tuesday. You can check out that video below.

Stampin’ Up! Right Behind You Card

Published on June 10, 2021June 10, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie7 Comments

Sometimes when you don’t know what to say, a card does the job.

The Right Behind You Stamp has some really great sentiments of encouragement and friendship and helps make the perfect card to send to show your love and support!

I used it for this week’s Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop sketch challenge.

My card starts off with Thick Basic White cardstock.

I then took a panel of Garden Green cardstock and cut the hill using the Basic Borders Dies. I did this first so I would know placement of the bicycle.

Using the Stamparatus, I stamped the bicycle and flowers above the hill.

I used the Stamparatus: A) Because I knew it would take a few goes with the Memento Black Ink Pad to get perfect coverage and a crisp look and B) Because I could stamp the bicycle and flowers exactly where they needed to go.

I colored the images in using: Polished Pink (shirt and flowers), Fresh Freesia (shirt and flowers), Ivory (skin), Crumb Cake (hair), Daffodil Delight (hair), and Pale Papaya (flowers) Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I then wound around some Linen Thread into a bow. I stamped the sentiment from the Right Behind You Stamp Set in Memento Black ink on Basic White cardstock and cut it out with the Stitched Rectangles Dies.

Stampin’ Up! What’s Cookin’ Card

Published on June 9, 2021June 9, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie3 Comments

My first paper crafting love was scrapbooking. I don’t do it nearly as much as card making (like, once a year as much), but I still love it.

When I saw the What’s Cookin’ Bundle in the Annual Catalog, I knew I NEEDED it for card making and scrapbooking.

Just think – holiday pictures, barbeques, and fun times cooking in the kitchen. I can’t wait to use it for scrapbooking!!!

But last week I used it for my live Wednesday night tutorial to make a fun card. I love the stamped background and the polka dot embossed cardstock.

But do you want to know what my favorite thing is about this card??

The little thread around the handle of the cutting board. Silly, I know. But I just love that little detail.

I’ll be back tonight on Facebook at 7:30 EST with a new card. It’s a, well, um, sorta, uhhhhh…Christmas card.

Don’t throw any tomatoes at me. I was in the mood to make a Christmas card the other day. So join me tonight live. It’s actually a fun fold card, well, a ridiculously easy, almost too easy to be called fun fold card.

If you ever miss any tutorial, you can always check them out over on my YouTube Channel.

Now, to see how I made today’s card, check out the video below:

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.

Thanks for checking out my project today!!

Today’s card is inspired by this week’s Fab Friday Challenge.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Birthday 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! Art in Bloom Happy Card

Published on June 4, 2021June 3, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie2 Comments

You might’ve seen by now that I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE the Art in Bloom Bundle.

Mostly because it’s a trio bundle (stamps, dies, embossing folder) and I think you get a lot of value from it.

I first made a wedding card that you can see here and then I made a friendship card (with video tutorial) that you can see here. Today I bring you another card which I equally love.

Today’s card starts off with Just Jade cardstock, on which I adhered a Just Jade pattern from the 2020-2022 In Colors Designer Series Paper.

I then took a panel of Basic White cardstock and stamped the other floral image in Bumblebee ink and then the inside floral image in the same, but stamping off first. I then ran this through the Bloom Hybrid Embossing Folder and adhered it to the card front.

Using the dies in the bundle, I cut out Bumblebee flowers to go around the stamped flowers.

Next I stamped the sentiment in Just Jade ink on Mint Macaron cardstock, cut it out with the same dies, and adhered down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Thanks for checking out my project today!!

Be sure to head on over to my store and take a peek at this incredible bundle of product!!!

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! Art in Bloom Friend Card & Video

Published on June 2, 2021June 1, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie2 Comments

I am all about value.

Before being a demo especially, I had a tight budget and needed to get the most out of the items I bought. (Mostly why I became a demo – to have the discount)

Looking through the Annual Catalog, hands down I think the product with the most value is the Art in Bloom Bundle.

It’s a trio bundle – stamp, dies, embossing folder!

The value comes in that you can use all three together, each piece separately, or any combination of mixing the three. So. Much. Value.

Today’s card is the one I shared a few weeks back and in the video I share two other cards using this bundle – one I shared a week or so ago and the second I’ll share on Friday.

I’ll be back tonight with another live card tutorial over on Facebook at 7:30 EDT. I sure hope you join me – if you, you’ll have a chance to win the card!!!

If you ever miss a tutorial, you can check out all of my videos on YouTube.

Now, to see exactly how I made today’s card (and the other two I showed), check out the video below:

Stampin’ Up! Iconic Dies Amazing Card

Published on June 1, 2021June 1, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie1 Comment

Most of Stampin’ Up!s dies are part of a bundle – Stamp Set & coordinating Dies.

But the annual catalog includes 9 new dies that although coordinate with lots of other product, aren’t part of a bundle and paired with a specific stamp.

They are:
Basic Borders Dies, Flower Market Dies, Give it a Whirl Dies, Layering Diorama Dies, Picture This Dies, Stitched Greenery Dies, Tailor Made Tags Dies, Warm Wraps Dies, and the Iconic Dies, which I used today.

Actually, if you look quickly through the catalog, you might completely miss them. For me I think it took like five times through the catalog before I saw these Iconic Dies.

The Iconic Dies include great nature images like this bird, leaf, flower, and even bee (see the inside of the card below).

I decided to cut the images from Basic Black cardstock and give them an ombre background using Blending Brushes and three different colors.

I made this card live over on YouTube today with tips and tricks for using the Blending Brushes and creating this fun card.

You can check out the video down below.

Stampin’ Up! All Things Fabulous Card

Published on May 31, 2021May 30, 2021 by stampitupwithjaimie4 Comments

Of the five new 2021-2023 In Colors, Fresh Freesia I think is my favorite.

It’s such a hard decision, but I just find myself using it a lot!

Today’s card is one I made a few week’s back for my Tuesday YouTube Live tutorial and is really a simple layout overall, but the sparkle of the shimmer paper and Wink of Stella really elevate it.

Stampin Up All Things Fabulous Birthday Card

My card starts off with Thick Basic White cardstock which I embossed using the Painted Texture Embossing Folder. I then added a little blink over the embossed cardstock using Wink of Stella.

I then used the Ombre Specialty Paper and Fabulous Florals Dies to cut out a shimmer background for my flowers.

I created my florals using Fresh Freesia and Gray Granite ink and the All Things Fabulous Stamp Set. It uses multistep stamping, but really gives a nice shade to the images. I cut it out with the coordinating Fabulous Florals Dies and adhered them down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the All Things Fabulous Stamp Set in Fresh Freesia ink and cut it out using a die from the Floral Gallery Dies.

Lastly, I added a Fresh Freesia bow and some Rhinestones around the card.
