Third Thursdays Blog Hop - My New Faves

Welcome once again to our Third Thursdays Blog Hop! This month our theme for the hop is My New Faves! We are featuring our favorite NEW items from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog that debuted May 3rd! I am sharing the He's the Man Suite Collection.
{you'll find Product Purchase Links for current items I've used, below the Blog Roll}

The He's the Man Designer Series Paper in the Suite contains two 12x12 sheets of die cuts, so I separated those out, and came up with pieces to make 15 cards. I used the He's All That Stamp Set, the All That Dies, the DSP, the Rustic Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots, and I added Crumb Cake Cardstock, and the Early Espresso Ink Pad. I shared a pretty long video about this whole Suite, as well as my process in coming up with these cards. You can click on the image below to watch that.

Stampin' Supplies: He's the Man Suite Collection, Crumb Cake Cardstock, Early Espresso Ink Pad, Mini Stampin' Dimensionals, Stampin' Seal, Paper Snips, Paper Trimmer, Grid Paper, Bone Folder, Stampin' Scrub & Stampin' Mist (to clean red rubber stamps), Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine (or you can use the Mini). And don't forget to grab some Very Vanilla Envelopes for mailing your cards!

Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop - A Mother's Love

Welcome to the MAY 2022 Edition of the Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop! You'll see projects in our hop from Stampin' Up! demonstrators around the world--I'm in Colorado Springs, Colorado. (Note: I can only sell to customers in the US, so prices are in USD)

We generally hop the first Friday of each month, and our theme for today is A Mother's Love! For my project I am updating an old project, using the NEW Sun Prints Suite Collection (though I didn't use the Fern 3D Embossing Folder on my cards). The first pic below shows the old design. {you'll find all Product Purchase Links below the Blog Roll near the bottom of the post}

This week has been SUPER crappy for me...it's been really stressful, and I've been in a lot of pain, especially the last few days. So, I am going to resurrect an old Mother's Day project that's super easy to make. It's a Four Card Stationery Box you can recreate with any 12x12 Designer Series Paper that you feel is pretty enough to stand as a complete card front design on its own. I love giving sets of cards as a Mother's Day gift, and it doesn't get much easier than this.

The key is having a coordinating stamp set with the greetings you want to use, and a punch (or die set) on which you can place those greetings. Pick either a neutral background color for your card base, or use a few different colors that coordinate with your Designer Series Paper.

It is also nice to have some specifically coordinating ribbon, but if you don't, you can do what I did, and use the Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, or you could even just use Linen Thread. And, our White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon is quickly and easily changed to any coordinating color with the swipe of Stampin' Blends Marker.

You can bling these up with embellishments, like our Iridescent Rhinestones or our Solid Faceted Gems. Personally, for the sake of the recipient of my card set being able to mail them without extra postage, I like to leave my designs fairly flat. Our Brushed Brass Butterflies, or Polished Dots have a little less height than the former two embellishments, and would probably be fine postage-wise.

Stampin' Supplies: Sun Prints Suite Collection (Nature's Prints Stamp Set, Natural Prints Dies, Sun Prints 12x12 Designer Series Paper, Fern 3D Embossing Folder), Basic White Cardstock, Sahara Sand Cardstock, Starry Sky Ink Pad and Cardstock, Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, Stampin' Seal or Multipurpose Liquid Glue (to adhere DSP to card base), Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots (to make little spun twine circles), Stampin' Seal+ or Tear & Tape (to adhere stationery box), Stampin' Scrub & Stampin' Mist (to clean red rubber stamps), Bone Folder, Paper Snips, Grid Paper, Paper Trimmer, and the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. And don't forget Basic White Medium Envelopes, if you want to mail your card! {see Product Purchase Links under the Blog Roll}
