I was so excited to get Linda’s Double Triangle Fun Fold Card! I have been wanting to make one of these fun folds and hers is just over the top gorgeous! I love everything about it from the Sweet Soiree Specialty Designer Series Paper to the organza ribbon she dyed to match. Here’s how it looks opened.

Stampin Up Beautiful Day friend card idea colored with Brusho Crystal Colour - For inspiration, ordering, and more visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Ramsey Alexander

This card is just beautiful in person! Ramsey used the Brusho Crystal Colour ink crystals to watercolor over the heat embossed butterfly from the Beautiful Day stamp set. I need to pull out my Crystal Colours and play. Ramsey has done several of these cards and they come out beautiful and different every time. This is a fun watercolor technique!

Stampin Up Lemon Zest inspirational card idea - For ideas, ordering and more, visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Jill Killeen

This card is so Jill! She is so much fun to be around! The Lemon Zest Stamp set has fun sentiments. Check out what she stamped inside.

I love it when stamp sets have inside sentiments to go together. This card is sure to brighten someone’s day!

Stampin Up Beautiful Bouquet friend card idea - For inspiration, ordering and more visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Deb Echelmeyer

Deb is so creative! I love how she used the flower stems from the Bouquet Bunch Dies to make a lilac bush! (Which just happen to be my favorite flower scent!) Deb added texture and layers to this beautiful card using the Brick Wall Embossing Folder and Layering Dies. Such a pretty spring card!

Stampin Up Birthday Blooms and Bouquet Bunch friend card idea - for inspiration, ordering and more, visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Rosanne Mulhern

Rosanne’s card is another example of adding layers to create a beautiful card! Like Deb, she used the Beautiful Bunch Framelits to cut out the flowers and leaves. Even though this card has many flowers and layers, it has a clean & simple feel with the black & white background. I love the sentiment (and font) she used from the Birthday Blooms stamp set. It is retiring in May but it’s definitely one I will keep and continue to use. I love all the sentiments and beautiful flowers in this set. Check it out below and be sure to get it before it’s gone!

I so appreciate the stamping community and my stamping friends! Everyone so willingly shares their ideas and talent. Together we really can make a difference as we share our handmade kindness one card at a time! Make someone smile today!!

Everyone who shops with me this month will receive one of my swap cards (you can see it HERE) in addition to my monthly thank you gifts (card kits and more).

OnStage Card Swap…Day 1

April 12, 2018 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 6 Comments

One of the things I love about attending Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage events is getting together with my stamping friends and swapping cards. Here are some of the cards I received. *Each of these cards are made with items that are retiring. If you see something you like, order now before it’s too late!

Stampin Up Layering Love clean & simple card idea - for ideas and ordering visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Susan Itell

Susan used the Tutti-frutti Designer Series Paper and Layering Love Stamp set. I love the large sentiments in this stamp set. It will be retiring in May so grab it now while you still can! You can check out the other sentiments in this set in the product list below.

Stampin Up Garden in Bloom and Butterfly Thinlits Die birthday card idea - For inspiration and ordering visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Nancy Farell

Nancy used Butterflies Thinlits and Garden in Bloom Stamp Set to create this fun card. The thinlits, stamp set, and Fluttering Embossing Folder used on the envelope are retiring. Get them before they “fly” away! Here’s a peek at the inside of this card.

I love the way Nancy cut out the circle on the front of the card and had the butterfly wings peeking through! So creative!

Stampin Up Bold Butterfly Framelits and Watercolor Wings Stamp Set friend card idea - For inspiration, ordering, and more, visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Karen Hallam

Karen used the Watercolor Wings Stamp Set and Bold Butterfly Framelits Die to create this beautiful card. This butterfly stamp set and Framelits are also retiring! I love all the layers and texture on this card!

Stampin Up Flower Shop Thank You card idea - For ideas, ordering, and more, visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Mary Anne Schnettgoecke

This thank you card created by Mary Anne is sure to brighten anyone’s day! I absolutely love the Flower Shop Stamp Set and matching Pansy Punch and I may shed a few tears over these retiring. I have used them for all different occasions! I love the way Mary Anne heated embossed the flowers with white embossing powder then watercolored such bright and cheery colors. She used my favorite paper too, Shimmery White. Thank goodness the paper is sticking around!!!

Stampin Up Country Livin' Masculine Birthday card idea - for inspiration, ordering, and more visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Card Created by Anne-Marie Schofer

Anne-Marie made matching red tags for all the PALS attending the event. She is just the sweetest and is from my home state of Massachusetts! She used the Country Livin’, Guy Greetings, and Hardwood Stamp sets to create this masculine birthday card using the masking technique. For some reason I want to sing “These boots were made for walking..” The Guy Greetings stamp set used on this card is retiring but Hardwood and Country Livin’ will be in the new annual catalog.

I hope this showcase of cards has inspired you today! Check back tomorrow to see more beautiful cards I received. Be sure to check out the retiring items below so you don’t have any regrets later!

It’s High Tide

April 23, 2017April 22, 2017 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 16 Comments

I have been on Spring Break for the past 11 days and it has been glorious! After spending Easter in Massachusetts with family, I picked up my friend in Virginia and we drove to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for a beach retreat vacation.

What’s your “Happy Place”?

The sandpipers on the beach reminded me of this swap card created using the High Tide Stamp Set.

Here’s a couple more swaps cards I received using this stamp set.

I am happy this stamp set will be in the new annual catalog. I love the beach and lighthouses and the sentiments in this set are different.

High Tide Stamp Set

Look what came on vacation with me! Beach + Paper Pumpkin = Double the Happy!

Here’s a photo of my friend, Laura. We taught together for many years in Virginia. We live 4 hours apart now so it’s always a treat when we can get together.
