What's New At SU February Blog Hop Product Coordination

Welcome to the What's New At SU February Blog Hop as we showcase the amazing new products from the Product Coordination Release. These wonderful products coordinate with select products in the January-June 2020 Mini Catalog and 2020 Sale-a-bration Catalog and are available until March 31st or until supplies last. You will be visiting with Stampin' Up! Demonstrators as we share ideas to inspire you to create with these fun new products.

 For my card design today, I have chosen to use the Sale-a-bration stamp set, Happy Birthday To You (item #152308), which you can earn Free with a qualifying $50 order, and the coordinating Birthday Days from the Coordination Product Release. I love that these dies mean no more fussy cutting and provide so many options for creating with this stamp set. 

 To create my card, I chose to use Thick Whisper White cardstock for my card base and I added a layer of Purple Posy cardstock that I embossed using the Tufted 3D Embossing Folder (item #151785) to create a soft background. 

The focal image was created by stamping the detailed cake image twice onto Whisper White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored the images using a combination of Purple Posy, Soft Sea Foam and So Saffron Stampin' Blends Markers. Using the dies from the Birthday Dies (item #153590), I die cut one of the images with the die that cut out the whole cake image and the other I die cut just the flowers image using the coordinating die. 

 In addition, I die cut one of the cake pedestals and two of the fern dies from Silver Foil to complete the design. I snipped off the stamped cake pedestal using paper snips and attached the Silver Foil one to the bottom of the stamped cake image using Snail Adhesive. I attached the flowers image to the cake image using Stampin' Dimensionals, making sure they were lined up. I then attached the cake image to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals, placing it towards the top to leave room for the sentiment. 

For the sentiment, I heat embossed the image using Silver Embossing Powder and die cut it using one of the Ornate Frames Dies (item #150664) and attached it to the bottom of the card front with Snail Adhesive. To complete the card design, I added Basic Rhinestones for a touch of bling and a small bow created using the Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon (item # 151326). I attached the bow to the cake pedestal using a Mini Glue Dot. 

This soft and pretty card design is perfect for a variety of occasions including birthdays, weddings, anniversaries and so much more.

Colour Combo December Blog Hop

It's time to hop along with the Colour Combo December Blog hop as we explore a new color combination. This month we have been challenged to use Petal Pink, Merry Merlot and Early Espresso to create a project to inspire you. 

 My card design for this color challenge features a Sneak Peek from the upcoming January-June 2020 Mini Catalog, which will launch January 3rd, 2020. The Dressed To Impress stamp set (item #151666) has wonderful images and sentiments to create fun, fashionable projects. I chose to use the shoes for my focal design but there are so many other wonderful choices to explore.

 For this card design, I started with an Early Espresso cardstock card base and added a layer of Petal Pink cardstock that I embossed using the Tufted 3D Embossing Folder (item #151785) from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. To add a splash of color, I added a banner created from a piece of Merry Merlot designer series paper from the Neutrals 6"x6" Designer Series Paper Pack (item #149614). I just love the script design for this card.

The circle was die cut from Very Vanilla cardstock using the largest circle die from the Stitched Shapes Dies (item #145372). Using Early Espresso Classic ink, I stamped the sentiment towards the top of the circle. 

I stamped two of the shoe images onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock using Early Espresso Classic ink. I colored the shoes using Merry Merlot and Petal Pink Classic inks using an Aquapainter. I then colored over the images with Clear Wink of Stella to add a touch of shimmer. I fussy cut the shoes out with Paper Snips but you could also use the coordinating All Dressed Up Dies (item #151665) to die cut the shoe images. I attached the shoes to the Very Vanilla Circle with Stampin' Dimensionals. 

I love how this card came together with these beautiful colors to create a fun, feminine design. This would be great for a teenage girl or that special someone who loves shoes.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design helps inspire you to try this color combination and see what you can create. If you live in the U.S. and do not already have a demonstrator, please contact me and I would be happy to help you.

SBTD Christmas Blog Hop

It's time to hop with the SBTD Blog Hop as we celebrate Christmas. You will be visiting with Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the world as they share their project ideas to help inspire you for the holidays.

 My Christmas card design features the Christmastime is Here Suite and I just love the classic elegance of this design and the way all these beautiful products coordinate to make it simple to create. For this card design, the Christmastime is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper is the star of the show, with a little texture added to the background using the Tufted 3D Embossing Folder (item #151785) from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog.

 To create this card, I chose Cherry Cobbler cardstock for the card base to coordinate with the designer series paper. I added a layer of Whisper White cardstock that I embossed with the Tufted 3D embossing folder and adhered a strip of the designer series paper to the left side of the card front with Snail Adhesive. I then used a piece of the Gold 1/4" Shimmer Ribbon to cover the seam along the edge of the designer series paper. 

The beautiful focal image was die cut from one of the sheets for designer series paper with the coordinating die from the Roses Dies. This is a wonderful way to add a beautifully colored image to your card without having to color it yourself. I added the die cut image to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals, so that it overlaps the designer series paper.

To create the sentiment, I stamped the image from the Christmas Rose stamp set with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with Gold embossing powder. I used one of the coordinating dies from the Roses Dies to create the label and attached it to the card front with Snail Adhesive, making sure the label tucks underneath the rose image. This simply beautiful card design is simple to create and easy to duplicate as your family Christmas card design. 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today and I hope that my Christmas card design helps inspire you to create your own beautiful, timeless holiday projects with the Christmastime is Here Suite. If you live in the U.S. and do not already have a demonstrator, please contact me and I would be happy to help you.
