Happy Birthday with Dandelion Wishes

img_3419
Happy Birthday to my sweet daughter, Ariane.  I can’t believe she is 21 years old today!  Last week I shared her surprise birthday celebration. If you missed that post you can view it HERE.

I mailed her this card so she would get it on her birthday.
Stampin Up Dandelion Wishes birthday card idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I used the new Highland Heather Designer Series Paper and cardstock because purple is her favorite color. I love the 6 x 6 DSP packs!  They are the perfect size to decorate a card and envelope.  I first cut a 2 x 6 piece to use on the flap of my envelope.  Then I cut the 4 x 6 piece to 4 x 5 1/4 to layer on the front of my card.  I used the leftover 3/4 x 4 piece on the inside of my card.  I love that there is no waste!

I stamped the image and sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I punched the sentiment using the Pretty Label Punch and layered it with a 1 3/4 Circle in Highland Heather. I popped the sentiment and layered dandelion image using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added some Basic Rhinestone Jewels for a little bling!

Thankful for my Stampin’ Sisters

When I joined Stampin’ Up! 4 years ago I never dreamed how much it would enrich my life. Stampin’ Up! is much more than a company with great papercrafting products. It is a community filled with amazing people with the biggest hearts. I am ever so grateful for the kindness and support from my “Stampin’ Sisters” following the loss of a dear friend. I have been busy making thank you cards this weekend.

Stampin Up Painted Harvest Thank You card idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp

This clean and simple card is made with some of my favorite things. I absolutely love the Painted Harvest Bundle in the Holiday Catalog!  The good news is the Painted Harvest stamp set and leaf punch will carry over after the holiday catalog retires on January 2nd.  However, you will no longer be able to purchase it as a bundle (and save 10%) after Jan. 2nd! (If you don’t already own this set, you can save even more by purchasing it tomorrow during the 24 hours of Free shipping!)

The base of my card is my favorite go to for thank you cards, Stampin’ Up! Note Cards and Envelopes! Biggest bang for your buck (20 note cards & envelopes for $6)! I embossed the envelope flap and very vanilla layer on my card with the Layered Leaves embossing folder (another one of my favorite items). I adhered the burlap ribbon with a strip of Tear & Tape and punched two leaves from Old Olive cardstock.  The sentiment is stamped in Crumb Cake ink, punched out with the Pretty Label Punch, and adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Quick & easy with a little added texture!

Here are some beautiful flowers, cards, and gifts I received from team members and friends.

Autumn Harvest Treats

Yesterday I shared with you a “wicked good” treat I made with the Spooky Cat Suite.  If you missed that post you can see it HERE.  Today’s projects use another one of my favorite suites in the new Holiday catalog, Painted Autumn.

Stampin Up Pizza Box treats with the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper, Painted Harvest Stamp Set, Leaf Punch, and Touches of Nature Elements. For directions and supplies visit www.juststampin.com

I love the new pizza boxes in the Holiday Catalog! They fit 3 x 3 note cards and envelopes as well as gift cards, jewelry, and more. They’re also food safe and perfect for a large homemade cookie or fudge. YUM!  Read on to see what I found to put in mine.

The Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper has sunflowers, pumpkins, acorns, and much more painted in a beautiful retro style, echoing motifs from the Painted Harvest Stamp Set.

Coordinating colors: Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Garden Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Peekaboo Peach, Soft Sky, Tangerine Tango, Very Vanilla

I cut a 3 x 3 piece of the DSP, layered it with a piece of 3 1/4 x 3 1/4 Cajun Craze Cardstock, and adhered it to the top of the pizza box. I stamped the sentiment in Early Espresso on a scrap piece of Cajun Craze and punched it out with the Pretty Label Punch.  I love the sentiments and font in the Painted Harvest Stamp Set.

I was so excited with what I found to put inside…chocolate covered autumn leaves (from Cracker Barrel).

The colors are perfect with the DSP!  I layered the DSP on the inside (using the same measurements as the top of the box) and cut out the stamped sentiment using the Stitched Shapes Framelits. I also cut 4 strips of DSP (3/4 x 3) and layering cardstock (1 x 3 1/4) for the sides of the pizza box. I love how this little gift turned out!

I can never make just one when I’m playing with new products! I love the sunflower print paper and made the DSP layer on the top of this one 1/4″ larger.

The DSP measures 3 1/4 x 3 1/4 and the Crushed Curry layer measures 3 3/8 x 3 3/8.  I fussy cut the sunflower on top from the DSP.  How easy is that?! The leaves are 2 step stamped in Wild Wasabi and punched out with the coordinating Leaf Punch.  I also punched one in vellum and tucked them in.  I love how the leaves I cut from the DSP match so nice with my stamped leaves.  Stampin’ Up! does such a great job color coordinating our products! I used the Early Espresso marker to just ink up part of the sentiment to make my little tag. The finishing touch was adding some Black Rhinestone Jewels in the center of the sunflower.
