This Birthday Piggy Thinking of You Card

/ Leave a Comment

The inspiration for this piggy card came from Michelle Wilder, who presented 3 projects using the super cute This Birthday Piggy stamp set, at a Luv 2 Stamp Group Team event last weekend. Thanks Michelle for the inspiration!

I started with a card base of Orchid Oasis from the Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes. Next, I cut 3 strips of 2022-2024 In Color DSP Assortment, in Sweet Sorbet, Orchid Oasis and Parakeet Party, and adhered them to the card base.

I die cut a square with the Stylish Shapes Dies. Next I stamped the piggy image in Tuxedo Black memento Ink, and colored in the image with Stampin Blends. Then I stamped a few butterflies in Orchid Oasis and Tahitian Tide and added a few of the In Color Matte Decorative Dots. I adhered the square to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment in Orchid Oasis and die cut it with the Decorative Labels Dies, adhered it to the bottom of the square with a Mini Glue Dot and a Stampin’ Dimensional. To finish I tied a bow with the In Color Bakers Twine to label.

This Birthday Piggy Thinking of You Card Measurements:

  • Card Base: Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes Orchid Oasis Card base
  • 2022 – 2024 In Color DSP Assortment: 3 strips cut to 1-1/2″ x 4-1/4″
  • Basic White Cardstock Scrap to die cut Square and Label

A Cup of Tea with Glimmer

/ Leave a Comment

The Cup of Tea Bundle is one of my favorite Bundles n the new Annual Catalog! As a lover of Tea this was at the top of my shopping list!

My card also features the 2022-2024 In Color 6’x6″ Glimmer Paper. If you haven’t tried it, Glimmer Paper is amazing! I love the shimmer it adds to my projects and its mess free! No traces of glitter all over my craft room!

To create this card I cut (2) 1/2″x 5-1/2″ strips of Starry Sky Glimmer Paper, and (2) 1/2″x5-1/2″ Parakeet Party Glimmer Paper. I adhered them to the Basic White cardbase with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I die cut a stitched circle in Vellum with the Stylish Shapes Dies. Using Tear & Tape I added a strip of White glittered Organdy Ribbon. I added another strip of Tear & Tape over the ribbon to add it to my cardbase.

Then using an Adhesive Sheet added to the back of some Parakeet Party Glimmer Paper, I die cut the leaf tea cup. I die cut the sold Tea Cup in Starry Sky Glimmer Paper. This made adding the Parakeet Party Tea Cup to the Starry Sky tea cup super quick and easy. I attached the tea cup to the Vellum Circle with Foam Adhesive Sheet cut to fit the cup.

To finish my card, I stamped 2 tea tags in Starry Sky and Parakeet Party and die cut them. I tied some Basic White Bakers Twine to my card and left 2 long tales at the top. Using Glue dots I attached the tags to them. I added these cute die cut hearts to the back of the tags with another glue dot.

Cup of Tea with Glimmer Card Measurements:

  • Basic White Thick Cardstock Base: 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, score in half at 4-1/4″
  • Starry Sky Glimmer Paper Strip: (2) 1/2″ x 5-1/2″
  • Parakeet Party Glimmer Paper Strip: (2) 1/2″ x 5-1/2″

Happiness Abounds – Luv 2 Stamp Group Blog Hop

/ 8 Comments

Welcome to the Luv 2 Stamp Group’s 2022 Blog Hop! We are excited to share projects with you again this year. We hope to inspire you to create beautiful new projects. Each month we will have a different theme based on the next month’s celebrations using Stampin’ Up! products.

Once you are done with each post, scroll down to the bottom and you will see a list of Blog Hop participants, you can click on their name to go to their post, or you can click the next button to go to the next post in line. Happy crafting! This month’s theme is Teacher Appreciation.

To celebrate all the wonderful Teachers who inspired us to learn, I wanted to make a fun fold card using the vibrant new 2022-2024 In Colors.

I’ve been using some new products coming on May 3 in the new Annual Catalog and wanted to incorporate those into my card as well. To start, I chose Orchid Oasis cardstock for the card base, cut to 4-1/4″x 11″, scored at 2-3/4″ & 8-1/4″.

I embossed 2 panels of Orchid Oasis cardstock with the Thanks Embossing Folder from the Thanks & Hello Embossing Folders. Each one was adhered to the card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To create the rainbow, I used new 2022-2024 6×6 DSP Assortment and the Brilliant Rainbow Dies. I stamped the sentiment in Orchid Oasis with a stamp from the new Happiness Abounds Stamp set. I love this sentiments and mixed fonts in this set, and I will be using it a lot!

Before adding the sentiment to my card, I cut the same DSP used to create the rainbow, to create the layers under the sentiment. To adhere the sentiment layers to the front of my card, I used the Multipurpose Liquid Glue and carefully added it to top edge of the sentiment layer, then adding ti to the top flap so that the card would still open. You can see the picture on the right below when the card is open you can see the back of Sentiment layer. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels for a bit of sparkle.

On the inside Basic White Cardstock layer, I adhered a strip of Orchid Oasis DSP. Using the Rainbow of Happiness Bundle created the inside sentiment. I colored the smaller rainbow with Stampin Blends, using the Light Sweet Sorbet, Light Parakeet Party, Light Tahitian Tide and Light Orchid Oasis.

Tea Boutique – It’s Time for Tea

/ Leave a Comment

I am so happy to share with you a card I made with one of my favorite new Suites the Tea Boutique Suite!! It will be available beginning on May 3 in the new 2022-2023 Annual Catalog!

I love all things tea! I was beyond excited when I saw that this suite is part of a group of select products that Demonstrators were able to pre-order on April 1st. So, what’s available in this suite you may be asking? The Cup of Tea Bundle, Tea Boutique 6 x6 DSP, and Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes. I love everything about this great suite, from the images in the stamp set to the bright colors and pretty flowers in the DSP and Cards & Envelopes.

To create my card, I used the Starry Sky Card base from the Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes pack and layered a piece of Vellum with some Stampin’ Seal. I put the adhesive in the middle where it would be hidden by the additional card layers. I added a square of Basic White cardstock first, then added the slightly smaller squares of the Tea Boutique DSP.

Next, I die cut the tea cup base from the Tea Boutique DSP. Then using Starry Sky Cardstock and an adhesive sheet, I die cut the designed layer of the teacup. With the Adhesive sheet on the back of my cardstock, I was able to quickly add the top layer of the tea cut with no fuss. On the back of the teacup I used a little Stampin’ Seal and adhered a piece of the Gold Simply Elegant Trim. Using a piece of Foam Adhesive sheet I added the teacup to the center of the Squares. I love the look of the Gold added to the teacup, to give it a little eye catching bling like steam coming from the cup.

I wasn’t sure what sentiment to use or where to put it. In the end I decided on adding the cute little tea tag with the sentiment layered on the lemon wedge in the bottom right of the card. I’m really happy with the way it turned out.

The Tea Boutique Suite and the new 2022-2024 In Colors, including Starry Sky which I used on my card today, will be available beginning May 3, 2022. I hope you enjoyed this sneak peek at some of the new products coming soon!

Happy Stamping!!
