Welcome baby bear

One of my favourite stamp sets released in the Stampin' Up! 2016-17 Annual Catalogue is Baby Bear. It's a gorgeous triple step stamp set.

I created a square Crumb Cake card base and layered Whisper White and Soft Sky diagonal striped paper from the Subtles Designer Series Pack onto the base. A smaller crumb cake square became the base for the Elegant Dots embossed framed Baby Bear stamp which had been stamped using the three step stamp set as follows: stamp step 1: Sahara Sand, step 2, Crumb Cake and step 3 Soft Suede ink. The bear's bow was stamped using Soft Sky ink, fussy cut and added to the bear with a glue dot. The sentiment is also from the same Baby Bear stamp set. A White Organza ribbon bow completes the card.

Rose garden card

The Stampin' Up! Rose Garden thinlets make card making so easy.

To create this card, I layered some Stampin' Up! Melon Mambo card stock onto a thick Whisper White card base. I die cut the rose using the Rose Garden thinlets from another smaller piece of standard Whisper White card stock. I glued down both the diecut and the offcut piece of Whisper White together onto the card to provide the contrast between the pink and white. Some 1/8" Silver ribbon, sentiment from Circle of Spring stamp set and a couple of Rhinestones completes the card. You could easily change the sentiment to turn this card into a birthday or other occasion card. Quick & easy, but so effective.

I made the cute Stampin' Up! Curvy Keepsake boxes above in the new 2016-18 In-Colors of Sweet Sugarplum, Dapper Denim, Peekaboo Peach, Emerald Envy and Flirty Flamingo. I embossed the boxes using the new Floral Affection Textured Impression Embossing Folders before assembling them. I the die cut the cute little vellum butterfly on top of the box from the Bold Butterflies framelits and added a bow from the matching In-Color Ruched ribbon. The little white tags were die cut using a die from the Curvy Keepsake set and stamped in the matching ink colour using the 'for you' stamp from the Circle of Spring stamp set. These are quick and easy to make.

Grunge 18th birthday

My son asked me to make a low key 18th birthday card for his friend with a green and black colour scheme. Here's the result.

I started with a Stampin' Up! Basic Black card base with a layer of Always Artichoke and the retiring Go Wild Designer Series Paper. I then added the centre focal element which I deliberately kept simple. Using the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set, I stamped the horizontal stripes in Always Artichoke ink. I then added the Happy Birthday sentiment from the retiring You're So Lovely stamp set in Mossy Meadow. Some Silver Metallic Thread, punched stars, candy dots and the number '18' diecut from the Little Numbers thinlets set finished off the card. Quick to do and my son was happy with the result.
