There is an occasion for everything, and a time for every activity under heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1
It’s time…
- To start a blog in 2024 and encourage anyone to enjoy the love of creating with stamps, ink and paper.
- To share ideas that are simple and others that the experienced crafter would enjoy making.
- To create an atmosphere to experience time together, being blessed and seeing the wonder and joy of being creative and sharing what we make with others to brighten their days.
Let’s start this journey together!
Stampin’ Up is introducing the Mini Catalogue from Jan 4, 2024 to Apr 30, 2024 and from Jan 4 – Feb 29, 2024 Sale-a-bration is happening. This means that for every $60 purchased from my store or hosting a qualifying class or joining my team you will earn free products. There are beautiful designer papers, stamp sets, ribbon and dies to choose from. They can stand alone or work with other products.
Just a Little Note to Say Thank You card using the Notes to Nature Bundle
This card was made with products from the new catalogues and one item from the Online Exclusive products.
I used the Notes to Nature Bundle (#162640), which is a stamp and die set. They can be purchased separately as well: stamp set (#162630) and dies (#163203).
The card base and envelope are from Gold Foiled Flowers Cards and Envelopes (#162589) and the Designer Series Paper (DSP) is a piece from Nature’s Sweetness (#162616) which I die cut left side from Stippled Roses (#162666). I then tore the paper on the right side and used Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755) to adhere it to the card front.
With Shaded Spruce cardstock (#146981), I cut out three leaves from the Notes to Nature dies (#162640) and layered them on top of a Nested Essential die (#161597) out of Copper Clay cardstock (#161721) and added this to the torn DSP with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).
The sentiment is stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock (#101650) with Pebbled Path ink (#161648) and a greeting from the Notes of Nature stamp set (162640). This was cut with Nested Essential Dies (161597), adding it to the top of the greenery with Stampin’ Dimensionals and a bit of Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755) in the centre.
To complete the front of the card, I added two bird embellishments from Adhesive-backed Dragonflies & Birds (#162743).
On the inside of the card, I stamped a leaf from the Notes to Nature stamps (#162666) in Pebbled Path ink (#161648) with second generation stamping (meaning stamping off the ink on a scrap paper and then stamping it on my card inside). This gives a lighter or softer look.
You can make a card with this design using whatever you have available, or you can view a full list of the products that I used here. It includes the stamps, die cuts, cardstock, colours and adhesives used. If you’d like to order any of the products, simply add them to your cart. And THANK YOU in advance for selecting me to be your Stampin’ Up! ® Demonstrator.
Thank you for stopping by my happy place online. May you enjoy the Wonder and Joy of this beautiful world of stamping!
Blessings,
