A Glimmery Thank you

February 22, 2017May 30, 2019 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 9 Comments

Yesterday I shared the 3 new Sale-A-Bration items. My favorite new item is the 6″ x 6″ Glimmer Paper Assortment Pack! I need a lot of thank you cards so I decided to play with the new glimmer paper to make some cards.

Stampin Up Clean & Simple Bold Butterfly Thank You card ideas - Jeanie Stark StampinUp

I have used this simple card design before. You can change the DSP and choose a variety of sentiments then cut them out using the Stitched Shapes Framelits and the Layering Ovals Framelits. I used DSP from Floral Boutique, Succulent Garden, and Blooms & Bliss. The DSP is cut at 3 1/4 x 3 1/2 and matted with a layer of cardstock that measures 3 3/8 x 3 5/8. I chose colors to coordinate with the new glimmer paper from Sale-A-Bration…Bermuda Bay with Night of Navy, Sweet Sugarplum with Old Olive, and Mint Macaron with Island Indigo.

The sentiments are from Suite Sayings, Suite Sentiments, and Dragonfly Dreams though many others would fit as well. I used the Bold Butterfly Framelits to cut the butterflies from each of the different colors of glimmer paper. The 6 x 6 Glimmer Paper Assortment Pack comes with 12 sheets; 4 each of 3 colors (Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaron, Sweet Sugarplum).

A is for Avant Garden Stamp Set

January 4, 2017January 5, 2017 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 7 Comments

sale-a-bration

It’s time to start Sale-A-Brating!!! Stampin’ Up!’s biggest sales event of the year is here—and I’m here to help you learn about the products inside and out. This alphabet series will showcase new products in the 2017 Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalogs. Today I am sharing a card I made using the Avant Garden Stamp Set (from the Sale-A-Bration catalog) and All Things Thanks Stamp Set (from the Occasions catalog).

I started with a 4 1/4 x 11 piece of Sahara Sand cardstock for my card base. I scored it at 5 1/2 and added a 1 1/2 x 5 1/2 strip of Blooms & Bliss Designer Series Paper. I love how this flower from the Avant Garden Stamp Set goes with the DSP from the Annual Catalog. I stamped the flower on Whisper White using Island Indigo, Mint Macaron, and Whisper White (for the center of the flower). I used the Stitched Shapes Framelits (LOVE these!!!!) to cut out the flower and layered it on a piece of Mint Macaron cut with the Layering Ovals Framelits. (I love how Stampin’ Up! made it so these Framelits work together to give us more layering options.) I used the Mini Striped Mint Macaron Ribbon to tie a simple knot around my flower layer and attached it to my card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment is from All Things Thanks and stamped in Island Indigo. Quick & Simple! I can think of so many people to send this card to. Florals are so versatile for so many different cards. It could be used for a birthday card, congratulations, thank you, or just a note for no special reason. I really like this sentiment and font! Keep reading to find out how you can get this card delivered to your mailbox!

Popping in for a Happy Birthday

December 26, 2016 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 6 Comments

Popcorn Box Thinlits Dies by Stampin’ Up!

Today is my friend Paula’s birthday. Paula is the nurse at school and she loves the popcorn from the boardwalk at the beach. I was thrilled when I found out I could purchase it from our little neighborhood grocery store. I made this card for Paula using the Popcorn Box Thinlits Dies to go with the bucket of popcorn for her birthday.

Card pouch made using the Popcorn Box Thinlits Dies from Stampin’ Up!

Check out this short video showcasing the Popcorn Thinlits Dies.

To make the popcorn box (as shown in the video), you need to cut 2 pieces and put them together to make 4 sides. For the card pouch, I just cut one piece and folded it over. (Be sure to cut off the little piece that is shown in the picture.) Use a strong adhesive to adhere. I used Tombow Multipurpose glue.

I cut Whisper White strips using the die included in the set and adhered them to the front of the pouch. To create the inside panel I simply die-cut the box in whisper white card stock and hand cut following the shallow lines created by the die. I wanted to make caramel popcorn so I used Delightful Dijon ink and stamped it off once before stamping it on my paper. I cut out the popcorn using the dies included in the set and attached them to the top of the panel using mini glue dots. I think Paula will be surprised when I drop this off at her doorstop today. She is an amazing, thoughtful, creative, hardworking, woman and I hope she feels special and appreciated today!

Stamp Set: Ready to Pop Inks: Delightful Dijon, Memento Black Papers: Real Red, Whisper White Tools & Accessories: Popcorn Box Thinlits Dies, Layering Ovals Framelits. Glue Dots, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals

If you like this project and want to order the supplies needed to make it yourself, please feel free to visit my online store. You can order any of the project supplies needed and save on great deals during the Stampin’ Up! year-end closeout sale.

Have a wonderful day!
