Mostly Good Christmas Kitty

I have one more card to share with the North Pole Mischief Set.  I shared another card featuring this set last week. This one has no fussy cutting, no ink blending but is still such a cute, sweet card!  I stamped my image on the bottom of my Basic White Cardstock and used Stampin' Blends to color it in.  You can find a list of colors used in the supply list below.

I added some stamping and a greeting to the top left corner and finished this card with some Orchid Oasis Baker's Twine and Dots.  I love this fun card, this is a great card to mass produce this year.  You can stamp a bunch then color them all. You can even color the cat and fish differently on each one.  I think it would be so cute!  Or how about a stack of these cards for a gift with different cats on each card.  So fun!  I have a full supply list below, you shop for these products in my Online Store.

Birthday Bash Class Cards

I'm excited to share the cards from my class over the weekend.  I hold in person classes once a month and if you're local in the Albuquerque area I'd love to have you attend one of my classes.  This month the theme was Birthday Bash-of course! Because we're celebrating my birthday all month long!  I don't have details like measurements or supply lists for these cards because that's a perk for my in person guests.  You can order the supplies to make these cards in my Online Store.  

The first one is so pretty!  I think the color combo of Daffodil Delight, Night of Navy and Smoky Slate is one of my favorites!  It's such a classic!  I used some sets I haven't pulled out in a while and I'm so glad I did!  I used the Butterfly Brilliance Background Stamp and the Biggest Wish Set.  I haven't used the Biggest Wish Set in a while and it's one of my favorites!

The next card is the perfect card for all those DSP scraps you have.....I know you have them!  We punched the Lasting Label Punch in three different DSP patterns from the Lovely Linen DSP Pack.  Added to an embossed background and a simple greeting, it's a gorgeous card!

The next one is a favorite of mine.  It's simple but so fun.  We used the Adventurous Journey Set.  I nearly passed this one by in the Annual Catalog but I'm so glad I found it and gave it a chance!

If I had to choose one set of flower dies I think it would be the Summer Shadows Dies.  I love them!  Their size is good and there's so much detail to them!  I love just pairing the dies with a simple greeting for a stunning card!

Finally I couldn't let a birthday class go by with out using the This Birthday Piggy Bundle.  The dies are available this month only while supplies last.  I love this fun card, especially paired with the Gingham Cottage DSP.

Masking Paper One Layer Card With Blending Brushes-VIDEO

I'm so in love with this card! It's one of my favorites for sure!  I'm using the North Pole Mischief Set from the Holiday Catalog.  At first glance you might think "What Designer Series Paper is that?" Or maybe, "Are the cat and dog cut out or die cut".  Let me tell you, that's not DSP, that's an ink blended background AND it's all ink blended OVER the stamped images.  I'm going to share the magic behind the background and the stamping....it's our Masking Paper.  I have a video below with all the details.  Please check out the video for all the details, it's explained so much better in the video then in text.  

I started by stamping the image on my Basic White Cardstock and then also again on a sheet of Masking Paper.  On my cardstock I used Stampin' Blends to color my image, colors are listed below in my supply list.    

There is fussy cutting involved and there's no getting around it for this card, you have to fussy cut the image out of the masking paper.  Trim as close as you can to the black line or even right on the black line.  Peel your trimmed image from the Masking paper and lay it over the stamped and colored image.  TIP-press the masking paper onto your pants or hands a little to take a little of the 'stick' away.  I like to de-stick it a little just so that it doesn't tear my cardstock.  I've never had that happen but I don't want to take any chances.  The mask can be reused over and over again so taking a little of 'stick' off doesn't effect the quality of it and it still provides excellent coverage.  

stampin up, north pole mischief

With the image covered up, I cut three more pieces of the Masking Paper that were 1" wide.  Make sure they're long enough to go across the cardstock.  One strip I laid horizontally on the cardstock to make the ground or carpet in this case.  The other two strips I used for the wall papered background.  I grabbed my Blending Brush and some ink and worked my way across the wall papered background.  Check my video for details.  Once the wall was done I moved the horizontal mask to cover the wall and I ink blended a Shaded Spruce carpet.  Do people have green carpet anymore???  Once all the ink blending was done remove all the masks including the one over the stamped image.  Save it in your stamp case to reuse again.  The magic that happens when you remove all the masks is pretty amazing!  I know I'm calling this a one layer card but there are a couple of layers on here and my greeting is popped up on Dimensionals but the focal images are one layer and let's face it this is probably as close to a one layer card as I'll ever get.

Crumb Cake 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" score the long side at 4 1/4"
Shaded Spruce 5 1/4" x 4"
Basic White 5" x 3 3/4", plus scrap for greeting
Masking Paper 

I have a full supply list below, you can shop for these products in my Online Store.  Make sure you check out the video for all the details on this card.  Subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you're there so you never miss a video.

This Birthday Piggy Birthday Cake Box-VIDEO

Today's fun treat box is one of my favorites!  I love this adorable set and this is such a fun gift to hand out to a friend!  I'm using the This Birthday Piggy Set, this month only you can buy the This Birthday Piggy Set in a bundle with coordinating dies.  These dies will only be available while supplies last so if you love them get them now!  I'm also featuring this bundle for my Card Crate this month.  Card Crate is a class to go that comes to your mailbox and you complete it on your schedule via the PDF instructions and the video instructions that you'll recieve with your Card Crate.  Get details on Card Crate here.  The deadline to RSVP with payment for September's Card Crate is September 12, 2022.  

stampin up, this birthday piggy

I used Stampin' Blends to color my piggy, check out all the colors used listed in the supplies below.  I die cut my piggy with the coordinating dies.  Also die cut with the dies is lots of the extras in the die set like the flowers, presents with bows, leafs and grass border.  It's an amazing die set and if you have or get this set make sure you grab the dies too!  I used Adhesive Sheets on the back of the tiny pieces, like the bows and gifts.  It's so easy to peel and stick then deal with adhering the tiny bows.

stampin up, this birthday piggy

I wanted to add some extra details to the outside of my box, so before I scored it I stamped the flower trio from the Hello Ladybug set all over the box.  I used Poppy Parade Ink on Poppy Parade Cardstock.  I trimmed the finger notch for my box with the Lasting Label Punch.  I love the fancy edge that gives it.  Inside my box are two Little Debbie Birthday Cakes.  You can find these in most grocery or big box stores.  I know I see them all the time.

To make the box you'll need:
Poppy Parade Cardstock 8 3/4" x 7 1/4"

Adventurous Journey Three Ways

I'm excited to share three cards with you today.  I used the Adventurous Journey Set to make the cards.  The cards are all pretty similar but feature different colors.  I'd love to know what color is your favorite.  I wanted to go with fun bright colors that pop!  The cards all feature a layer of Vellum Cardstock that has been embossed with the Painted Texture Embossing Folder and some water that was die cut from Bermuda Bay and Coastal Cabana Cardstock with the Layering Diorama Dies.  

stampin up, adventurous journey

I used Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green and Mango Melody for my three cards.  I used the same greeting and added white Baker's Twine to all the cards.  I used the notebook border die from the Blossoming Dies for some added texture on my greeting.  I love this die.  It's so easy to add it to any card.  

stampin up, adventurous journey

 
For my boats and oars I stamped them VersaMark and white heat embossed them with White Embossing Powder from the Basics Collection.  There are no dies for this set so I fussy cut them but this boat is easy to fussy cut.

Hello Harvest Tote Bag-VIDEO

I have an adorable bag to share with you today.  This one is a good go to for any treat, for any season.  It's a great size and will hold lots of fun treats!  Today I'm using the Hello Harvest Bundle, after I made this project I realized that the bundle is currently unavailable for ordering.  It should be back in stock the week of September 12.  So if you have this bundle on your wishlist, make a note to check back in the Online Store that week to grab it.  

stampin up, hello harvest

As I mentioned before this is a great bag template to have on hand for any season.  This would work great for Christmas, Valentine's, Easter, Birthdays and more!  I'm using the Rustic Harvest DSP for mine.  I haven't played too much with this DSP but it's so gorgeous!!!  This bag has a folded over DSP edge so it's a great bag to make when you can't decide which pattern of DSP you want to use.  This bag you can feature both sides!  Make sure you check out my video for all the tips on this bag.  

stampin up, hello harvest

I paired up the earthy-ness of the DSP with the amazing sparkle in the Glimmer Specialty Paper from the Holiday Mini Catalog.  This package of glimmer paper comes in 12" x 12" sheets and you get Gold, Very Vanilla and Evening Evergreen.  They're all so stunning!  I used an Adhesive Sheet on the back of the vine die cut.  No need to mess with messy glue, the Adhesive Sheets are a life saver!

Inside my bag are three York Peppermint Patties.  I got these fall ones in an assortment of Halloween candy, check your local groceries for Halloween treats to put in this one.
