A creative mind makes for a happy person these days! I posted to my FB page, Laura’s Creative Corner, a card sketch that I saw on Pinterest! I have had quite a few people post their creations already!
Here is the sketch! You should try it out!
I wanted this card to be super simple! So I started out with the Bird Ballad DSP and found two birds on the patterned paper that I admired. I then cut it out with the Stitched Shapes Circle (2nd to the largest) and then built the colors from the image. I finally settled on the Whisper White Base (thick card stock) and Soft Suede as the mat piece. I love the Calypso Coral page from the DSP that has the bird cages on it. That is what I chose to make my three panels. I used the Stitched Rectangle dies to cut them out so they had more texture.
I then stamped the sentiment from the coordinating Free as a Bird stamp set using Early Espresso ink on Crumb Cake. Then I used the Classic Label punch to cut it out and pop up with Mini Dimensionals. (I used Dimensionals to pop up all of the layers except the Soft Suede) To create the leaves, I cut out 2 pieces of Old Olive using the Leaf punch. I used a sponge to distress some Old Olive on the edges to create more depth.
I am soooooo close to my goal! $122 and that’s it!

With all of the craziness going on, I wanted to spread some cuteness to everyone! I have to admit, more time for crafting is a bonus! When my son and I saw this set, it was a must have! The animals are just too cute and so simple to create quick and fun cards! I am sharing the two that I came up so far with this set! (I still need to make one with the chick!)
The card base is Rococo Rose (LOVE THIS COLOR) I used the Smoky Slate Dark and Light with the color lifter for the fur. Then, I followed up with the Light Blushing Bride for the ears, nose, and paws. The die from the Painted Labels die looked like Easter Grass! Both cards are using the 6×6 In Color 2019-2021 DSP pack for the Gingham.
Here is the second card where I used the sheep stamp and the baby sentiment! I used the Seaside Spray for the card base.
I used Stampin’ Blends to color in the bunny and the sheep. To create the shadow and depth with the sheep, I used the Light Smoky Slate around the lines and then used the Color Lifter to blend into the center of the wool. I used the Ivory marker to color his face. I just love this card!

It is Spring Break here in Texas! And it is raining today….sigh. But that is okay!!!! This card shows the fun beach and summer fun that is unfolding! Fun in the sun is so close and I can’t wait to see all the beautiful colors that are starting to poke out!
I have really enjoyed using the Timeless Tropical bundle for my creations! To create the soft and subtle look to the flowers, I used the Rock n Roll technique. It is a great technique for beginners and is still a favorite among the advanced stamper! For the large hibiscus flower, I first stamped with So Saffron and then lightly rolled just the edges with Calypso Coral. The smaller flowers is stamped first in Mango Medley and the edges are rolled with Pumpkin Pie.
To create a ratan feeling to the background, I ran a piece of Crumb Cake through the die cutting machine with the Coastal Weave 3-D embossing folder. Then, I used a sponge with Crumb Cake ink to create more texture and depth to the embossed surface. Next, I popped up a pattern of birds of paradise from the Tropical Oasis DSP using dimensionals. (this is a gorgeous pack of double sided paper that can be used for all paper projects and scrapbook pages!!) The sentiment was stamped onto a piece of Mango Medley after I created a banner on the edge.
The Champagne Basic Jewels and Wink of Stella clear finish this creation with some sparkle! (to create the champagne color you can also use the Mango Medley Blends on your Basic Jewels)

I love pineapple!!! And when I was pregnant, I would eat a whole one a week! My poor child is just now liking the taste of it! LOL! The Tropical Oasis suite has been a favorite of mine! I have made at least 5 cards using all the goodies! This was one of the first ones I made! I was curious about the dies that cut out the prickly outer layer of the pineapple along with the leaves on top! I decided that Copper Foil was a close match to an actual pineapple outside layer. Once I cut it out, I just kept on going making this card! It was a quick design! I love it when the creative mojo just flows!
I then cut out a small piece of So Saffron cardstock to adhere behind the prickly die shape. Then, I used Mossy Meadow cardstock to cut out the leaves for the top of the pineapple. Next I wanted to create a frame, so I whipped out my Stitched Rectangle dies and measured them against the card base. The Tropical Oasis has a gorgeous rattan looking piece that was perfect for the framed image!
I ran the card base through the die cutting machine with the Subtle 3-D folder to make the Mint Macaron have texture. The sentiment was stamped with Early Espresso, anchored with Champagne Basic Jewels (those need to be a regular item!!!!), and I used the Stitched So Sweetly dies to cut it out. I finished off the card with some frayed Linen Thread topped with the Hibiscus flower from the Tropical Oasis Trinkets.
I hope you enjoyed this card as much as I did making it!

Who doesn’t love bees? (well not right in my face) But they are soooo beneficial for the environment, pollination, honey, and defying physics! I love the colors of black, white, yellow, and gold together!!
We had our Team Gathering last month. I have always wanted to do a Card Gut challenge! We all got the same sized pieces of cardstock and DSP in an envelope. We all were allowed to add extra colored paper, embellishments, and stamps. We just couldn’t alter the paper included in the card guts! I posted three of our team’s cards on this post!
During Sale-a-bration, one of the FREE items choices is the Golden Honey Specialty DSP! I LOVE THIS PAPER! Playful and yet elegant patterns of black, white, and gold to make your projects gorgeous! And since it specialty paper, it’s thicker and metallic!
I started with the card guts: Thick Whisper White cardstock, Golden Honey DSP, Basic Black. I ran the Basic Black through the die cutting machine with the Hammered Metal 3-D folder. I wanted a pop of yellow, so I added a mat piece of Daffodil Delight. I ran a piece of Gold Foil through the die cutting machine with the hive die for a fun accent.
To create the bees I stamped with Versa Mark and then heat embossed with the Shimmer Black embossing powder! Have you tried it yet? It made the bees so fun and whimsical! I used the Stitched So Sweetly dies for the sentiment!
Now to show you the team’s creations!
I hope you enjoyed the card cards we all made from the same pieces! Be sure to check out all the great new products in the Mini Catalog and Sale-a-bration freebies! Laura’s Stampin Up! website.

I remember thumbing through the Stampin’ Up! Mini Catalog and thinking this set was cute. It wasn’t until I saw tons of super adorable cards made on Pinterest and the internet that I HAD to have it! This card was designed in minutes! Simple and perfect for your fashion divas in your life! I can see so many more wonderful ideas coming for this card!
Petal Pink is usually not one of my first colors that I turn to, but it really works with this card! I started by stamping the floral bunches and sprigs on Petal Pink card stock with Black Memento ink randomly. Then I stamped the perfume bottle and cut it out with the coordinating die. There is a fun watercolor swoosh that I stamped with Petal Pink in the center of the bottle. Of course I had to use Wink of Stella to make the perfume bottle sparkle!
Next I stamped the sentiment in Black Memento and cut it out with the scalloped rectangle die from the Stitched So Sweetly dies. I adhered the Petal Pink Organdy Striped Ribbon behind the cardstock with the sentiment. I used dimensionals to make the images pop! To finish off the card, I placed a Champagne Basic Rhinestone!
