Team Stamp It Blog Hop Easter Watercolor

My Easter Card

What do you do when you don’t have any Easter stamps? You peruse the Stampin’ Up! catalog and search for inspiration. I found my inspiration on page 109 of the Annual Catalog. It’s a watercolor, eclipse card. I thought this style worked well for the card I wanted to share. It features the the Hand-Lettered Prose dies.

Here’s a quick recap of how it goes together:

  • Cut Shimmery White card stock – 5/14″ x 4″.
  • Use Aquapainters to give a wash with Pear Pizzazz, Coastal Cabana, and Highland Heather.
  • “Splatter” ink onto the card front.
  • Die cut the word with the Hand-Lettered Prose Dies.
  • Layer the Shimmery White onto a Highland Heather base.
  • “Pop up” the letters using pieces of Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Add the “Blessings” sentiment from the Merry Christmas to All stamp set on a watercolor piece with Highland Heather ink.
  • Die cut with the label from the Merry Christmas Dies.
  • Attach the sentiment with Glue Dots to the front of the card.
  • Color five Pearl Basic Jewels with Dark Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends. Attach to front of card.

Please let me know if you have questions about this card or how it was created.

Easter Card Idea Refreshed

Sharing an Easter card idea, refreshed and updated from a card I created last year. See the details below.

Easter Card Idea

I created a version of this Easter card last year. See the previous card here. I’ve made a couple of changes using current Stampin’ Up! products. It’s just a fun, springy card  to send to anyone!

The Card

Here’s what I used:

    • Timeless Tulips stamp set (found on page 43 of Stampin’ Up!’s January-June 2020 Mini Catalog.)
    • Waterfront stamp set (for the sprinkles)
    • Daisy Punch
    • Grapefruit Grove, Balmy Blue, Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather and Daffodil Delight card stock
    • 6 x 6 In Color 2018-2020 Designer Series Paper
    • Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon

Two Weeks Left to Sale-A-Brate

Stampin’ Up!’s most fun promotion of the year is coming to end. The last day to get FREE items with your purchases of $50 and $100 is March 31. (If you see something you like, get it sooner rather than later as a number of items have been so popular and are sold out.)

Remember: There are three ways to Sale-A-Brate:

Shop: Spend $50 and $100 and choose free product such as exclusive stamp sets, Designer Series Paper, and more. At the end of this post, I’ve included the offerings for both the $50 spend selections and the $100 spend selections.

Host: Host a party (this can even be done online) with $300 in sales or purchase $300 (great time to stock up on those supplies) and receive the free Ladybug stamp set.

Join: This is Stampin’ Up!’s ultimate bundle! For just $99, receive your choice of $125 in product (that’s your choice) and it’s shipped free. In addition, get a free mini paper cutter and a 6 x 6 sampler package of Designer Series Paper. And, there’s more. Also receive one additional stamp set of your choice FREE. Then, just enjoy your discount. There is no obligation or requirement to host parties or workshops or sell to anyone else. What do you have to lose? Have questions? Please contact me; I’d love to chat.

I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s card. Thanks for stopping by today.

Fable Friends Trio

Stampin' Up!'s Fable Friends Easter Trio with Gingham Gale Designer Sereis Paper

Stampin’ Up!’s Fable Friends Easter Trio

Hello Stampers!

I just love to get packages in the mail, especially when they’re from my talented team member Beth Doty. She loves to make treat packets and fill them with chocolate, and she even includes my husband.

Here’s the trio of goodies I received a couple of days ago. She’s paired Stampin’ Up!’s Fable Friends stamp set with the spring-like Gingham Gala 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.

Good news: The Fable Friends stamp set will be carried over and will be available in Stampin’ Up!’s new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog (you can order from it beginning June 4). The Gingham Gala 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper is still available, but it will be retiring soon. If you like this palette of pastels, order soon.

Thanks for stopping by today!
