Hello!

Hey, all, long time no see here! Happy Sunday, Happy October! Love the changing season!! Sorry about the absence, we are staying super busy! I have managed to get some time in the stamp room though, and hopefully more to come! We are settled in quite well so I should be able to get some regular time stamping! I do have many projects to work through too though, like retired stamps to sell and such so I'm working on finding a balance between work and play :)

Here are a few things I've done recently, then I will list some current Stampin' Up! things below!

Stampin' Up! did an event on World Card Making Day 10/5, and they gave us a heads up on products to be used. I'd seen these but not tried them so I ordered a few. I watched the video live but didn't play until later as we literally walked in the door a few minutes after it started.

Here is the link to the video if you'd like to watch. Sara did 5 quick cards, then some other info was shared

 

No stamping on these as they used the new mix and match items from page 18/19 in the annual catalog. Card/envelope sets combined with Ephemera packs (links below). I didn't order all the sets, just the one with lots of sayings and the flower one. I knew I wouldn't use the others.


Calming Creek Cards and Envelopes


Fully Flowering Ephemera pack

Saying Something Ephemera pack

And, the 5 cards I created! I used adhesive and a few dimensionals, and some stella on the blue one!





And I have lots more of both ephemera sets to use on future cards!

Yesterday I spent some time making gift tags. Friday, I had grabbed a new die set that features tags and cut some. Then I remembered a couple of kits I had previously started so I went hunting in the closet! I found the Paper Pumpkin Winter Gifts kit (11/2019) and went to work. It was a little more involved than I initially thought and took me most of the day, but I've got 6 each of 4 different tags ready to use at Christmas! Here are the tags:





These were fun and I'm glad to have one more thing out of the closet and ready to use! I added a to/from to each so they would be functional for us!

I'm going to call it quits here for today and I'll be back tomorrow with an all things SU! post! Have a GREAT day all! I'm going to go take a walk and get some sun and steps and then see what needs doing around here!

2024!

Happy New Year all! 2024. Wow!! I'm working on getting organized for the year and that led me to start my desk calendar! 3 months done, more to come! Hopefully before I 'have' to have them ready :)

I used the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks that I recently decided I had to have before they retire. They are still available as of this morning but *GONE* after the 3rd. Item 162331, $10.50. There are 7 masks, 4 layer together for the Sunflowers and there are three other backgrounds. Sunflowers! Now you know why I needed them!!

Here are my first 3 months! 

Blending Brushes and daubers used. The masks have a "marked" corner so you can line them up. I used sticky notes to hold them in place while applying ink. Colors here are Daffodil Delight, Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie ink all on Very Vanilla Cardstock. My month names and accents are from a previous Paper Pumpkin it. The month dates were printed on cardstock and cut out by hand. Retired Daffodil ribbon on this one.


This one is Poppy Parade with Real Red centers. Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie again for the center, leaves are Granny Apple Green.


And March is Parakeet Party with Granny Apple Green. Lemon Lolly centers with Crumb Cake.

9 cards, 3 each of 3 designs. Here are two shots of the kit before assembly: one of the card bases, one of the parts.


Even the envelopes on this one are cool! Flowers on the front, blue on the back flaps to match the cards.
