I am going to be posting some cards that you can copy for Mother’s day. Hope you like them. Hugs, Patti
This is a little sneek peek at one of our new stamps and matching embossing folders that will be sold as a bundle, if you prefer, in the new catalog to be released on June 1st.
This is one of the colors we will be saying Goodbye to in June. I really never used it much. It is one of those colors that is not quite dark enough and not quite light enough for me.
Mother’s Day. Teacher appreciation. Just because. Say thank you with this no-maintenance bouquet. There’s no watering, no weeding-just enjoying. This easy-to-assemble kit comes complete with the petals, stems, and buttons to create the flowers, as well as four different tags to make this the perfect gift for any occasion. All you need is some paper, ribbon or a vase to add the finishing touches to the bouquet.
As if that weren’t enough, the kit contains a “baker’s dozen”! This means you can create and give (or keep) a dozen flowers, and have a bonus flower left over to pass along to someone new! Give it to someone you wouldn’t normally think of: a teller at the bank, a grocery store clerk, or the librarian at your local library. Anyone you encounter on your way that you’d like to give a little “thank you” to-and introduce them to Stampin’ Up!

You can get this set with various sentiments by hosting a workshop or a book party. It cannot be purchased but is one of the sets offered as hostess benefits. I love all the various sentiments and they all go with “wishing you a”…. I used the bird builder punch and the big shot on this card.
This is one of those sets that are being retired. As you know I will be selling all my retired sets as of May 1st. So anything you see that you may be interested in, please put it on your list and check with me first to see if I have it before paying the full price for it online.
I love using this little sizzlet whale die. It is so stinkin cute. Since this card is made with Melon Mambo, I know just the little girl I am going to send this to.
I embossed this in black and used More Mustard, Daffodil Delight and Elegant Eggplant inks. I am finding lots of images to color with More Mustard now that it is going to be gone in June.LOL
I really love the colors from this big promotion. I love the stickers and everything that is included in this bundle. It is not just for making memories. Even after you make a memory book from it, you have tons of supplies left so why not used them on cards? That’s what I did here.
This is another card with the Cross my Heart set. Hope you like it. I used two of our in-colors with this, which are Pool Party and Calypso Coral, both of which SU is converting to our core colors. I am so happy because I use these colors all the time. Actually, out of the in-colors from 2012 we are keeping all of them except Lucky Limeade. WooWhoo!
Hello Stampers, Even though I will be gone I will try to post every day so you don’t think I fell off the face of the earth.
This card I created with the Cross my Heart stamp set in the Spring Catalog. I did use this set a lot for Valentines Day but I forgot about it. I spotted it on the shelf and decided to create a couple of cards with it so you can get some ideas of what to do with it.
I used Cajun Craze, Tangerine Tango & soft suede to water color these flowers and used my Aqua Painters. Hope you like the effect.
I know you must be sick of hearing me say how much I love this Tea for Two DSP. But it is soooo pretty. Every single sheet is gorgeous! I have already gone through 3 1/2 packs of it. I also love to use this Honeycomb embossing folder with this paper.
This paper is great for resist technique. No need to emboss as it is already embossed. Just add ink by sponging, daubers, or a brayer and the results are so striking! Love this card stock. It is sold on page 162 of the Big catalog.
I wanted to try my hand at cutting out the Fabric for this dress with the Big Shot. I actually had to design a blouse to go with the jumper from the pop up Bigz XL Die. I have so much of this beautiful fabric and I really need to start using it. I hope you were one of the lucky ones that picked up this gorgeous fabric at 50% off in March.
This time with some butterflies thrown in. This is one of those stamp sets that lends itself to using markers on the stamps instead of an ink pad.
This stamp set is getting to be my ‘go to’ set lately. It is soooo much fun to play with. I am so hoping that SU carries it over to the new catty. I would love it if you like this stamp set and this card to click on the COMMENT under this posting and let me know what you think. Hugs, Patti
Okay, this card I made using the supplies from the “THIS AND THAT KIT”. You can purchase this bundled kit at a discount now until April 30th. After that it will not show up again until it make the June 1st catalog. However, you will pay the full price then. I wanted you to see that you can always use any of our kits for cards as well as scrapping books. I used the washi tape, the stickers and the Designed Series Paper. Love it!
I stamped using Soft suede on the window sheet and then inserted the sea horse in back of it to make it appear that he is hiding from the lobster. I also used the Fancy Fan embossing folder on our Pool Party Core’dinations Card stock. Then I used the sanding block on it to expose the lighter core under the card stock. Hope you like it. Would love to hear your thoughts.
You could use this card for Mother’s Day if she loves flowers. I wanted to use More Mustard because we will be losing this color at the end of May. I bet a lot of you will be sad to see it go.
This is a great offer from SU perfect to earn more FREE stuff, both as a Hostess and a new recruit.
What is great about these flowers is you do not have to fussy cut them. Just use the framelits dies meant to go with the stamp set, Secret Garden. Talk about easy to create!
This stamp set is so stinkin’ cute! It is called “Bootiful Occasions” and can be used in many of the Holidays including Spring, Halloween, Christmas, and also in a cowboy theme. I love that it even include sentiments.
I just love all the templates that SU has come out with to add another dimension to our already fantastic stamps and punches. Gotta get your hands on all of them, they are so much fun to work with.
This is so versatile because you can use this to say Happy Birthday, Happy Anniversary, get well, congratulations…….whatever!
April 11, 2013
We are excited to introduce our new wood-mount stamp set packaging! These new cases are similar to our clear-mount boxes and fit perfectly on the shelf right next to them. They also have the images and stamp set name on the spine to make your search for the right set even easier.
Empty cases will be available with the launch of the new catalog on May 31. That means you can transfer all your old sets to these new boxes!
Do you love giving flowers to your Mom? I can remember when I was a kid (boy that’s a LONG time ago), LOL, that I used to pick the dadelions in the lawn and bring them into my Mom and she always made such a big deal over them. I will begin posting lots of Flower cards so you can get ideas for Mother’s Day coming up soon. You can change the sentiments on a lot of them while still keeping the flower design for Mother.
Created this card to showcase some of our gorgeous colors, notice how the markers match the card stock perfectly! Used our silver Dazzling Details to spruce up the center of the flowers!
Have you tried using this card stock yet? It is sooooo cool. You can use the emboss resist technique with it without having to emboss and use a heat tool. This time I used Island Indigo ink.
This is one of our single stamps and it is so cool! I will be posting samples made with some of the single stamps.
Two of my favorite colors together. I keep trying to think about how these flags & banners got so popular, and why we didn’t think of this 4-5 yrs ago. Do you think this posting looks like Island Indigo? I do have a very good camera, I just don’t know how to use it. Feel free to comment.
Remember when you were sad that some of our old IN-COLORS were being retired, like Bermuda Bay and Crushed curry? Well, their Back! Some old and one new color this year. Of course, you will notice that some are being retired so if the retired ones are your favorites, better stock up now before they are all gone.
