February 27, 2022

Hello friends! Welcome to the Saleabration #2 Edition of Stamp Review Crew. There is ONE last day to earn Saleabration products with a qualifying purchase - Feb 28th is the LAST DAY!. Don’t miss out on these goodies. Use Hostess code QYFDNYF6

I am a huge fan of this 2022 Saleabration promotion products. There are so MANY great finds. My two favorites are the ‘Driving By’ stamp set and the ‘Sunshine and Rainbows’ Designer Series Papers.

My card today features the ‘Sunshine and Rainbows’ Designer Series Papers. These papers coordinate with the Rainbow of Happiness Bundle. Another favorite! This card showcases 2 patterns from the paper pack. One of the patterns coordinates with the Cloud Punch. This card is also a shaker card! So fun.

A few additional cards I’ve created using this bundle are shown below.

What is the Stamp Review Crew? We are an international group of paper crafters that get together to feature and review a single Stampin’ Up! stamp set on the first and third Monday of each month. All of our previous stamp set reviews are archived. Click here to see all of the hops!

TGIF Challenges 345 - Color Challenge - Awesome Otters

December 2, 2021

The blues and greens have it! This TGIF Challenge is a color challenge that uses Pool party, Just Jade and Misty Moonlight. I’ve used these colors for this OTTER card featuring a sneak peek of a brand new Sale-a-bration stamp set. This stamp set is called Awesome Otters and will be available to earn for free in January.

On this card I painted a watercolor background using all three colors from this challenge. The otter has been colored using Stampin’ Blends. The otter and greetings have been heat embossed with Black and White emboss powder.

Play along with us this week. More inspiration can be found on the TGIF Challenges Blog. Happy Stamping.

Hello! I rarely show my face on here but I thought I’d pop in between cards and say hello from Stampin’ Up! OnStage in Raleigh!!! My crafty HEART is so full catching up with old and new friends. The people are always the best part of any experience, especially this one. I feel so lucky to catch up with my upline, old co-workers, the Artisan gals from various years, Monday Montage, TGIF challenges crew and even a sprinkle of Global Design Project peeps. So many lovely people who make my life better! It’s rare to find a place where you know so many people from decades of your life. Yay for stamping! I won’t spam you with all the many photos but here are a few. Yes, I’m usually a dork. ❤️❤️❤️

Sunshine and rainbows... such a fun theme. I created this card for @global_design_project theme challenge #gdp487 - Lemon Lolly is such a fun yellow and I love it paired with Summer Splash.

My fav… pulling out an OLD stamp set from the stash to create a custom background. I played with type to match the background to the primary image using simple watercolor and stamps. Paint and stamp in same color. Easy. Color is Blackberry Bliss. Stamp sets are Stampin’ Up! oldies but goodies: Rough Type & PS I Love You. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #useyourstash #cardmakingideas #cardmakingreels #papercrafting #handmadecard #cardmakingchallenge

All time favorite stamp set? How about favorite of the month? Year? I have so many "favs" and they rotate. Today we are sharing projects using our favorite stamp sets from our stash. There are certain stamp themes that I am certain to buy and keep. Any stamp set with a typewriter... or camera image, purchased! I have loads. On this card I used two typewriter themed stamp sets. 'Rough Type', which is and old alphabet stamp set. Remember those? It seems like we don't have many aphabet stamp set options anymore. Good thing I kept so many around ... The typewriter image is from a stamp set called 'P.S. You're the Best'. Check out what my friends created using their favorite STASH stamps sets!
