OSAT Blog Hop — Fall Brings Ghouls, Goblins and Gourds

Hello-Hello stampers and paper crafters!  Welcome to my blog and the October One Stamp At a Time (OSAT) Design Team Blog Hop!  This may be your first stop on the hop, or you may have hopped over here from the previous OSAT designer. Either way, in order to view all of the blog participants sharing their wonderful craftiness, click on the next person in line within the list of blogger's posted at the end.

This month's theme is "Ghouls, Goblins and Gourds".  I didn't have anything to fit the bill for Goblins and Gourds, so I stuck with the cute Ghouls found in the Toil & Trouble Designer Series paper.

There is a definite tint of Highland Heather in those little ghosts, so it made for a good matte behind the designer series paper and an accent to help show off the Labels To Love sentiment.

I'm not one to use one color with any of our neutrals, so I added some of the gorgeous Granny Apple Green Textured Weave Ribbon tied with a knot.  If you love ribbon, you are going to absolutely fall in love with this ribbon...OH. MY. GOSH!!  You need to get some...just sayin'!!  Sooo pretty and soft...to tie a knot or bow couldn't be any easier.

You all know how much I love dimension, so I inked the sentiment in Jet Black StaZon and stamped a 2nd time onto Pumpkin Pie to pop up on the original stamped image.  There are more dimensionals behind the main sentiment, too.  I hope you enjoyed this little "Ghoul" card...it came together so easy.

Takeout Treat Box with Bats

Wouldn't you agree that all those cute Ghouls need to be accompanied by a little Takeout Treat box covered with bats?!!  I stayed with the same color combinations of Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather and Basic Black.  The photo doesn't show it, but the bats were punched from the Black Foil paper using the Spooky Bats punch, both found in the Holiday catalog.  The sentiment came from the September Paper Pumpkin kit embossed with Whisper White Embossing powder.  Sooo cute!!

Halloween Frights and Delights Homemade Designer Paper

I was preparing for a craft fair this last weekend and had made up all of my September Paper Pumpkin Frights and Delights treat bags to hand out to shoppers stopping by my booth.  Now that those are all gone, what do you have left in your Paper Pumpkin box?  The stamp set, ink spot, and other extra pieces from the kit, right?  What do you do with those items — pack up and store them for a rainy day (although, it's been raining in my area for 4 days straight!)?  OR, do you keep playing and making new stuff?

Normally, my stamp sets and ink spots get put to the side while I feverishly work on my next projects, but not this time!  I wanted to show myself that there is still lots of life in these amazing images by creating my own "Designer Series Paper"!  That's right!  Have you ever noticed that there isn't any decorative patterned paper to play with?

In true color, Basic Gray Classic ink will appear much darker than what you see on my card.  To avoid stealing the eye from the sentiment focal point, I inked up the various images, stamped off one time, then stamped onto the Whisper White layer.  I did the same with the Pumpkin Pie Jack-o-Lantern, too.  Now the spider and bat were full ink, but because they are small, it gave some contrast to the "designer paper" I was creating.

 

There were, at least, half a dozen of the 'Boo!' stickers leftover from the kit, plus, lots of Black/Silver Baker's Twine to help adorn the focal image.  The Everyday Label punch made a quick background layer for the Pumpkin Pie Stitched Shapes Square.  A nice accent to show off the sticker, too.  Stinkin' cute!!

Even though the kit contained all of the supplies to create 24 adorable Halloween treat bags, I enjoyed using the leftover supplies, and a few of my own, to create my own spooktacular fun!

Falling For Leaves October Tutorial Design Team Blog Hop

Hello stampers and crafters!!  Welcome to the All Star Tutorial Bundle Blog Hop for September! You are joining during the round of tutorials (August–January). This team brings to you a "super bundle" of 12 tutorials using only Stampin' Up! products.  There are amazing projects in this bundle that range from traditional-style cards, fancy fold, 3D giftables and various techniques!  We each offer this in our own business for free with a minimum order, as well as, a stand alone PDF purchase.

 

Here are the sneak peeks...it's loaded with fun and excitement and something you don't want to miss out on. 

 

This month's tutorial bundle is based on currently available supplies from Stampin’ Up! and has both metric and imperial measurements. So whether you are a cms or inches person, we’ve got you covered!  Make sure to look for the full details at the bottom of this post.

My extra project this month features the beautiful Falling For Leaves stamp set found in the new 2018 Holiday catalog and the luscious Merry Merlot & Copper 5/8" Ribbon.  YUMMY!!.  Since I can only show you a sneak peek of the project I created in the actual October Tutorial Bundle PDF, I'm sharing a 2nd project I made especially for this blog hop using the same products. It’s different from the project in the Tutorial Bundle as they are exclusive and you won’t see them anywhere else!

I am gearing up for Fall and Christmas craft and vendor fairs and came across this candle in my stash of "hmmmm, what crafty thing can I do to dress this up?" Do you have one (or more) of those kinds of stashes??  haha!  I think I purchased it simply because of its color...coordinates quite well with Crushed Curry Woods, Texture Designer Series Paper, and the brilliant color of the Copper Foil paper.

 

After piecing the Woods Texture Designer Series Paper strips onto a strip of Sahara Sand, I knew it had to be finished off with the Merry Merlot & Copper Ribbon.  This ribbon is sooo soft and easy to work with, plus, it adds an elegant sheen and compliments the Copper Foil backing of the Tranquil Tide leaf.

The bundle of leaves were die cut using the coordinating Detailed Leaves Thinlits Dies, arranged, adhered into place and then propped with Stampin' Dimensionals and set into place on the Woods Textures Designer Series Paper strip.  This will be a beautiful addition to your Fall table decorations, don't you think?

Stamp It Blog Hop — Spooky Halloween Treats

Hello everyone and welcome to our September Stamp It Bog Hop.  This month's theme is anything related to Halloween and Fall.  One of my favorite seasons of all is Fall, but oddly enough, my projects do not reflect Fall...at all!!  Well, Halloween does come around during the Fall, so I'm technically hitting 2 birds with one stone, right?!!  Let's go take a gander, shall we!

 

If you have been traveling along the Stamp It Group Blog Hop, or, if this is your very first stop, I want to thank you so much for stopping to visit me Lori Mueller, Stampin' Dreams. If you like to skip and hop and happen to get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.

I'm needing to send out various packages to my customers who have entered my Prize Patrol challenges and placed orders through my online store throughout September...and I bought a humongous bag of Halloween candy that I couldn't wait to 'dress up' a tad.  The Spooky Sweets stamp set, various punches, framelit dies and Stampin' Write markers were perfect tools to help me with this fun project. 

 

First up 'to bat', is a candy tag die cut with Stitched Shapes Framelits and Layered Circle Framelits.  The bats were stamped with Memento ink with a Crushed Curry background.  The little circles and stars were on my table from a previous project using the Candles & Confetti Framelits.  Our new Take Your Pick tool is AHHH-mazing!  The tacky tip is perfect for picking up little pieces that usually takes a lick of your finger to grab and put into place.  You know what I mean...don't tell me you haven't done it!  LOL!  They were perfect to adorn each project and then make them pop using Clear Wink of Stella.

 

This little candy tag uses the Everyday Label punch as the Mango Melody cardstock base.  The sentiment was inked up using Stampin' Write makers (Gorgeous Grape and Pumpkin Pie).  Gotta love the new Spooky Bats Punch and Black Foil paper available in the 2018 Holiday catalog.  Super fun and cute!

 

I was sooo happy to see the Cat Punch roll over into the current Annual catalog.  The background is using the grunge image from Spooky Sweets stamp set inked with Mango Melody.  Add a little Basic Black Baker's Twine to the tail and some Lemon Lime Twist eyes sparkling with Wink of Stella and you have yourself a really SpoOky black cat!  haha!

 

This last tag really has no tricks...just treats.  I love changing up the sentiments with color...our Stampin' Write Markers are perfect to make a clean transition of color.  I think it adds more fun and a definitely 'WOW' factor.

For more Fall-themed inspiration, make sure you hop on over to the next Stamp It Group members' blogs to see what projects they have to share.  Thank you so much for stopping by....stop back again real soon.

If you have been traveling along the Stamp It Group Blog Hop, or, if this is your very first stop, I want to thank you so much for stopping to visit me Lori Mueller, Stampin' Dreams. If you like to skip and hop and happen to get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.

I'm needing to send out various packages to my customers who have entered my Prize Patrol challenges and placed orders through my online store throughout September...and I bought a humongous bag of Halloween candy that I couldn't wait to 'dress up' a tad.  The Spooky Sweets stamp set, various punches, framelit dies and Stampin' Write markers were perfect tools to help me with this fun project. 

 

First up 'to bat', is a candy tag die cut with Stitched Shapes Framelits and Layered Circle Framelits.  The bats were stamped with Memento ink with a Crushed Curry background.  The little circles and stars were on my table from a previous project using the Candles & Confetti Framelits.  Our new Take Your Pick tool is AHHH-mazing!  The tacky tip is perfect for picking up little pieces that usually takes a lick of your finger to grab and put into place.  You know what I mean...don't tell me you haven't done it!  LOL!  They were perfect to adorn each project and then make them pop using Clear Wink of Stella.

 

This little candy tag uses the Everyday Label punch as the Mango Melody cardstock base.  The sentiment was inked up using Stampin' Write makers (Gorgeous Grape and Pumpkin Pie).  Gotta love the new Spooky Bats Punch and Black Foil paper available in the 2018 Holiday catalog.  Super fun and cute!

 

I was sooo happy to see the Cat Punch roll over into the current Annual catalog.  The background is using the grunge image from Spooky Sweets stamp set inked with Mango Melody.  Add a little Basic Black Baker's Twine to the tail and some Lemon Lime Twist eyes sparkling with Wink of Stella and you have yourself a really SpoOky black cat!  haha!

 

This last tag really has no tricks...just treats.  I love changing up the sentiments with color...our Stampin' Write Markers are perfect to make a clean transition of color.  I think it adds more fun and a definitely 'WOW' factor.

For more Fall-themed inspiration, make sure you hop on over to the next Stamp It Group members' blogs to see what projects they have to share.  Thank you so much for stopping by....stop back again real soon.

Creative Inking Blog Hop — Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog Showcase

Hello stamper and crafter friends! Welcome to my crafty spot (Stampin' Dreams) on the Creative Inking Blog Hop for the month of September! This months theme is geared around the SpoOkiest holiday of the year...Halloween!  I have been on a Halloween-crafting-craze for the last couple of days, and getting to play with new products from the Holiday catalog has been so much fun!  I'm like a little kid in a candy store..oh, wait!  Isn't that like Halloween?!!  haha! l can't wait to share my creation with you!  :)

You may be starting from here at my blog, Lori Mueller - Stampin' Dreams, or you may have come here from the very talented Colleen Vassos' blog. Please be sure to click the 'Next' button (found below) to move along the Creative Inking blog hop. If you get off track at any time, the full line up below will help you move along from blog to blog.

I am really hooked on this color combination — Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie and Basic Black!  Either that, or it's because Stampin' Up! does such a great job offering little combination packages that enable a crafter when buying the Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper pack available in the new Holiday catalog.

 

When I was creating my last projects using the Takeout Treats Bundle, I couldn't decide what color I wanted the sentiment heat embossed onto, so I was sampling several.  This one didn't make the cut on the last project, so it's now making a debut onto this card.  I also decided to die cut a whole schlew of the spider webs from the Black Foil Paper using the Cauldron Framelits dies just to have on hand.  So glad that I did!

I have to giggle because these little frogs look like they are have a grand 'ole party!  Seriously!  Look at the expressions on their faces!  With that thought in your mind, doesn't the sentiment seem a bit more fitting?  Those little frogs are probably scheming up some Halloween tricks.  **belly laugh**

If you don't already know this about me, I do love my Stampin' Dimensionals!  I love the layers, but I do have to be conscientious that I don't stack things too much; otherwise, the postal equipment will chew up a beautifully handmade card and spit it out into the "sorry, that's a no go!" bin.  I hope you'll give this fun bundle — Takeout Treats Bundle — a whirl.  You'll save 10% when you buy them together.  Any savings like that will definitely clear away the SpoOks — makings for a Happy occasion.

 

From the bottom of my heart, many, many "thanks" to you for you stopping by to visit me.  I love the visits and wonderful thoughts you share with your comments.  It is always my passion to inspire you with my papercrafting projects.  I hope I have peaked your excitement to get your dreams stamped out onto paper using some of the products that I have shared with you.  I truly live to inspire!! But, if you want to become a "Happy Shopper" and get all of your favorites on your wish list at a discount, you can purchase the Starter Kit and join my Stampin' Up! family...fill your Starter Kit with what YOU want (up to $125 worth of product)!  How exciting is that?!!   I am always very, very appreciative of your shopping excursion through my online store, too.

So with one click you can be on your way to soak in some more inspiration showcasing the assigned sketch.  Your next stop on the hop will be with Dena Rekow.  I know her projects will not disappoint...she'll have a beautiful creation to share with everyone. Click on the 'Next' button and you'll be at your next stop.  Have fun filling your inspiration bucket...don't forget to come back real soon.  :)

If you don't already know this about me, I do love my Stampin' Dimensionals!  I love the layers, but I do have to be conscientious that I don't stack things too much; otherwise, the postal equipment will chew up a beautifully handmade card and spit it out into the "sorry, that's a no go!" bin.  I hope you'll give this fun bundle — Takeout Treats Bundle — a whirl.  You'll save 10% when you buy them together.  Any savings like that will definitely clear away the SpoOks — makings for a Happy occasion.

 

From the bottom of my heart, many, many "thanks" to you for you stopping by to visit me.  I love the visits and wonderful thoughts you share with your comments.  It is always my passion to inspire you with my papercrafting projects.  I hope I have peaked your excitement to get your dreams stamped out onto paper using some of the products that I have shared with you.  I truly live to inspire!! But, if you want to become a "Happy Shopper" and get all of your favorites on your wish list at a discount, you can purchase the Starter Kit and join my Stampin' Up! family...fill your Starter Kit with what YOU want (up to $125 worth of product)!  How exciting is that?!!   I am always very, very appreciative of your shopping excursion through my online store, too.

If you get off track at any time, the full line up below will help you move along from blog to blog.

I am really hooked on this color combination — Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie and Basic Black!  Either that, or it's because Stampin' Up! does such a great job offering little combination packages that enable a crafter when buying the Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper pack available in the new Holiday catalog.

Stamp It Blog Hop — Fall Harvest Creates Jars of Love

 

Hello and welcome stampers and paper crafters to our August Stamp It Bog Hop.  This month's theme is anything related to one of my favorite seasons of all...Fall!!  Can you believe that we have entered the doorway to September 1st?!!  YIKES!!  We'll hold onto your boots because we are going to have some gorgeous creations for you to enjoy.  Let's go take a gander, shall we!

If you have been traveling along the Stamp It Group Blog Hop, or, if this is your very first stop, I want to thank you so much for stopping to visit me Lori Mueller, Stampin' Dreams. If you like to skip and hop and happen to get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.

I'm needing to stock up on some Thank You notes for my wonderful customers, but needed something that was easy to mass produce, yet, still has that WOW element.  It has been a really long time since I had pulled out the Jar of Love, Thankful Thoughts, and Timeless Textures stamps sets...so, nothing like the present, right?!!  Plus, I found a card on page 125 of the Annual catalog that inspired me.  If you flip to that page, do you think you could tell which card I'm referring to?  I changed up the colors (Early Espresso and Highland Heather) and tweaked a couple things, but the layout is still the same.

Heat embossing is always a fun technique to do, but, it is even more fun for the recipient because it hits that "WOW" factor.  I really love the Copper Embossing powder...it heats up so evenly and is absolutely gorgeous!  The little trim on the side is the negative strip to one of the Delightfully Detailed Specialty papers borders.  I thought is was kind of neat how it accentuates the banner cut Vellum Cardstock piece.

 

For more Fall-themed inspiration, make sure you hop on over to the next Stamp It Group members' blogs to see what projects they have to share.  Thank you so much for stopping by....stop back again real soon.

I'm so very grateful; and I'm not sure I can say thank you enough to everyone that stops to visit me.  I love the visits and wonderful thoughts you share with your comments.  If you've ever purchased a stamp set, dies, paper, ink, embellishments, etc. from my online shop, I literally did a little happy dance when your order came in.  And, if you've ever shared a card or other bit of handmade kindness using Stampin' Up! products, my heart leaps for joy.  I appreciate you and all of your wonderful support of my favorite stamping business.  If you haven't already, please share and invite your friends to stop by, too.  Oh, and subscribe to my blog so that you don't miss a single post.  I can't express how very passionate I am to share my love for papercrafting with you. If you are a new visiting crafter looking for a demonstrator to shop with, I would be ecstatic and honored to be your creative coach.

Hello stamper and crafter friends! Welcome to my crafty spot on the Creative Inking Blog Hop for the month of August!

You may be starting from here at my blog, Lori Mueller - Stampin' Dreams, or you may have come here from the very talented Sandra Motts' blog. Please be sure to click the 'Next' button (found below) to move along the Creative Inking blog hop. If you get off track at any time, the full line up below will help you move along from blog to blog.

Here is what the card sketch looks like...pretty clean and simple, right?!!  I thought so, too!

It has been a while since I have played with the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper, I thought it was perfect for the help I needed.  You see, this large pack of 12" x 12" designer series paper is packed full of coordinating colors to mix-n-match...a definite helpful starting tool for the creative mind that might be in a creative rut.  So, I picked on the colors of Blackberry Bliss, So Saffron, Mint Macaron, and Shimmery White cardstocks.  Oh, so pretty!!

 

• Next up was choosing what stamp set I needed for the special occasion that I had in mind.  And, look-ey there!  I couldn't pass up the Blended Seasons stamp set and coordinating Stitched Seasons Framelits...especially, since this bundle is only available during the month of August.  Plus, among all of the images (12 to be exact), there is an image of a bell that can be used for any occasion...in my case, I needed it to be wedding bells.  Don't forget, you can purchase this bundle for a 10% savings.

 

• Now, you may be asking "how did she make that skinny Blackberry Bliss border for the Shimmery White Stitched Frame layer?"  Well, I die cut two of the same size Stitched Framelits from Blackberry Bliss, cut each one in half (1 cut vertical...the 2nd cut horizontal), then adhered each half to fit and border the Shimmery White framelit layer.  I needed the matted layer to be skinnier than the next sized Stitched Framelits die, and this was the easiest way that gave me the result I was needing.  **squeal**

Did you notice the the embossed texture of the So Saffron layer?  OMGosh!!  The amazing Subtle Dynamic Textured Embossing folder left that mark!  Isn't it perfect for this layout?  I also love dimension...especially with a wedding card.  The Stitched Framelits layer is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals, as well as, the wedding bells, sentiment strip (which comes from the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set), and the faux Glimmer Enamel Dot (made from a small punched circle using the Gingerbread punch and coloring with Wink of Stella).  Sooo, so pretty!  Creating wedding cards makes me so happy....after all, it is a happy occasion.  :)

 

From the bottom of my heart, many, many "thanks" to you for you stopping by to visit me.  I love the visits and wonderful thoughts you share with your comments.  It is always my passion to inspire you with my papercrafting projects.  I hope I have peaked your excitement to get your dreams stamped out onto paper using some of the products that I have shared with you.  I truly live to inspire!! But, if you want to become a "Happy Shopper" and get all of your favorites on your wish list at a discount, you can purchase the Starter Kit and join my Stampin' Up! family...fill your Starter Kit with what YOU want (up to $125 worth of product)!  How exciting is that?!!   I am always very, very appreciative of your shopping excursion through my online store, too.

State Sales Tax-Free Holiday — Stock up on Stampin' Up! Products and SAVE!

If you love holidays—and don’t love taxes—I have some great news for you! I am reaching out to you because I received word from Stampin' Up! that a "Free State Sales Tax Holiday" is coming up and that your state of residence is participating again this year during the month of August. YEAH!! This so exciting!

 

• Arkansas (August 4-5)
• Florida (August 3-5)
• Louisiana (August 3-4)
• Missouri (August 3-5)
• New Mexico (August 3-5)
• Ohio (August 3-5)
• South Carolina (August 3-5)
• Texas (August 10-12)
• Virginia (August 3-5)
• Wisconsin (August 1-5)

 

Here is the description of the program:

 

"Ten U.S. states will have sales tax holidays for school supplies over the next several weeks. The dates for each state’s sales tax holiday will vary; the definition of “school supplies” will also vary from state to state. Fortunately, a selection of Stampin’ Up! products qualify as school supplies and will be tax-free during each state’s sales tax holiday period. To find out which states are participating—and which products will be tax-free for each state—download this Sales Tax Holiday PDF.

 

You must place your order with Stampin’ Up! during the tax holiday period in order to receive these items tax-free (midnight on the first day to 11:59 PM (MT) on the last day of the tax holiday).

 

Keep in mind that this is a state sales tax holiday and may not apply to additional county, city, and special jurisdiction taxes."

 

I have attached the Sales Tax Holiday PDF so you can check the list to see what Stampin' Up! products qualify for State Tax-FREE Holiday for the State you live in.

 

For example, it looks like Texas is participating in this program August 10-12, 2018; and you can order up to $100 worth of each item. For example, if you wanted to maximize and stock up on Multipurpose Liquid Glue at the price of $4.00 per bottle, you would be able to order 25 bottles free of sales tax. WOOT! Or, if you like fun embellishments to organize your office (like our new 2018-2019 In Color Mini Binder Clips...25/pk: 5 each of 5 colors) at $7.50 per package, you could order 13 packages...all free of state sales tax. {big grin}

 

Take a look at the list, mark your calendar and have your Shopping List ready to enter your order through my online store. If you have family and friends who are cardmakers, scrapbookers, crafters, have their own business, working in an office...let them know. There are some great items on the list that would be perfect for stocking stuffers, too. I would recommend entering your order closer to first day of your Tax-FREE Sales date versus towards the end of the Tax-FREE Sales date. With the large number of States participating, you never know what item might be super popular.

Stamp It Blog Hop — Christmas in July Under the Mistletoe!

 

Hello and welcome stampers and paper crafters!  It's July and with your visit to my blog you have entered the Stamp It Bog Hop.  This month's theme is going to blow you away...Christmas in July!!  Eeeek!!!  I know that the big holiday seems like it is far away (less than 6 months), but it's always a good thing to be aware of so you know that now is the time to start working on your cards.  We are here to help fill your inspiration bucket, so let's see what I have for your bucket!

If you have been traveling along the Stamp It Group Blog Hop, or, if this is your very first stop, I want to thank you so much for stopping to visit me at Stampin' Dreams. If you like to skip and hop and happen to get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.

 

My card is a wonderful sneak peak of some brand new stamps and framelits that will be available for purchase come August 1st.  This set is called Blended Seasons and has 12 stamp images with a coordinating die set called Stitched Seasons Framelits.  The main focal point rests on the designer series paper found in the Annual Catalog called Under the Mistletoe.  PLUS, this paper pack is one of the selections for the Buy 3 Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper Promotion.

I am super in love with the stitched framelits!!  They are nothing like we've had in our collections before.  Not only do they produce a beautiful shape, but when die cut from watercolor paper, the finished cut makes it look like a pillow top stitching...really cool effect.  The holly leaves and berries image was watercolored using an Aqua Painter and ink squished into the lids of my Shaded Spruce and Real Red ink pads.

Outside of popping up the sentiment, there needed (in my opinion) to be a little somethin-somethin added to help make the whole panel just POP.  Using the Fine Tip Glue Pen, I added a dollop of the clear liquid glue to each of the holly berries.  TIP: This step was the last thing I did to the card, because when you do this, you will need to set the card aside for a few hours to let the liquid glue dry naturally.  I don't recommend using a heat tool to speed up the drying as it could remove the sheen of the handmade glue dot due to the heat of the Heat Tool.

 

For more Christmas in July themed inspiration, make sure you hop on over to the next Stamp It Group members' blogs to see what projects they have to share.  Thank you so much for stopping by....stop back again real soon.

I'm so very grateful; and I'm not sure I can say thank you enough to everyone that stops to visit me.  I love the visits and wonderful thoughts you share with your comments.  If you've ever purchased a stamp set, dies, paper, ink, embellishments, etc. from my online shop, I literally did a little happy dance when your order came in.  And, if you've ever shared a card or other bit of handmade kindness using Stampin' Up! products, my heart leaps for joy.  I appreciate you and all of your wonderful support of my favorite stamping business.  If you haven't already, please share and invite your friends to stop by, too.  Oh, and subscribe to my blog so that you don't miss a single post.  I can't express how very passionate I am to share my love for papercrafting with you. If you are a new visiting crafter looking for a demonstrator to shop with, I would be ecstatic and honored to be your creative coach.

If you have been traveling along the Stamp It Group Blog Hop, or, if this is your very first stop, I want to thank you so much for stopping to visit me at Stampin' Dreams. If you like to skip and hop and happen to get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.

 

My card is a wonderful sneak peak of some brand new stamps and framelits that will be available for purchase come August 1st.  This set is called Blended Seasons and has 12 stamp images with a coordinating die set called Stitched Seasons Framelits.  The main focal point rests on the designer series paper found in the Annual Catalog called Under the Mistletoe.  PLUS, this paper pack is one of the selections for the Buy 3 Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper Promotion.

I am super in love with the stitched framelits!!  They are nothing like we've had in our collections before.  Not only do they produce a beautiful shape, but when die cut from watercolor paper, the finished cut makes it look like a pillow top stitching...really cool effect.  The holly leaves and berries image was watercolored using an Aqua Painter and ink squished into the lids of my Shaded Spruce and Real Red ink pads.

Outside of popping up the sentiment, there needed (in my opinion) to be a little somethin-somethin added to help make the whole panel just POP.  Using the Fine Tip Glue Pen, I added a dollop of the clear liquid glue to each of the holly berries.  TIP: This step was the last thing I did to the card, because when you do this, you will need to set the card aside for a few hours to let the liquid glue dry naturally.  I don't recommend using a heat tool to speed up the drying as it could remove the sheen of the handmade glue dot due to the heat of the Heat Tool.

 

For more Christmas in July themed inspiration, make sure you hop on over to the next Stamp It Group members' blogs to see what projects they have to share.  Thank you so much for stopping by....stop back again real soon.

I'm so very grateful; and I'm not sure I can say thank you enough to everyone that stops to visit me.  I love the visits and wonderful thoughts you share with your comments.  If you've ever purchased a stamp set, dies, paper, ink, embellishments, etc. from my online shop, I literally did a little happy dance when your order came in.  And, if you've ever shared a card or other bit of handmade kindness using Stampin' Up! products, my heart leaps for joy.  I appreciate you and all of your wonderful support of my favorite stamping business.  If you haven't already, please share and invite your friends to stop by, too.  Oh, and subscribe to my blog so that you don't miss a single post.  I can't express how very passionate I am to share my love for papercrafting with you. If you are a new visiting crafter looking for a demonstrator to shop with, I would be ecstatic and honored to be your creative coach.
