Creative Inking Blog Hop — Painted Seasons Sale-A-Bration Coordination

Helloooo stamper friends! Welcome to my blog.  I trust that you are having lots of fun on your travels through the Creative Inking Blog Hop for the month of March!  You may be starting from here at my blog, Lori Mueller - Stampin' Dreams, or you may have come here from the very talented BJ Peters' blog. Please be sure to click the 'Next' button (found below) to move along the Creative Inking blog hop.

Can you believe there are LESS THAN two weeks to celebrate Sale-A-Bration?!!  We've had a blast dreaming (and stamping) new projects to share with you.  This time we are sharing projects using the Sale-A-Bration Coordination products that compliment the stamp sets.  Let's check out what I have to share with you!!

 

Did you figure that I would share another project using the new Painted Seasons stamp set AND coordinating Painted Seasons Framelits?  I think that means you are getting to know me.  (grin) I can't seem to get enough of this bundle...because the Painted Seasons Designer Series paper is oh-so gorgeous, too!  I have to tell you, it's been a long time since I've used a bundle as often as I've stamped and created with this one. 

I didn't realize it at first, but this Distinktive flower image is really a "succulent" image.  It's a cool image that is pretty no matter what color you ink and stamp with.  I chose Mango Melody for the bunch of flowers with Granny Apple Green leaves and a Poppy Parade sprig.  The wonderful thing that Stampin' Up! included with the framelits is to add more than one die of several of the images.  What a smart thing to help us save time and mileage on our Big Shot.  Thank you so much!

I have to tell you that this bundle really lends itself to create many types of projects...greeting cards, 3D treat packages, home decor...all larger projects.  I was needing some quick (little) note cards to send to my customers—so no matter the size, these images are perfect.  The note card measures 2-1/4" x 5-1/8", scored at 2-5/8".  The sentiment comes from the More Than Words stamp set, which was released with the Sale-A-Bration Coordination products.  Until March 31st, you can earn the Painted Seasons stamp set and designer paper free as a bundle with a $100 product purchase.  If you want more of the Painted Seasons paper, you can earn it free with only a $50 product purchase.

If you are needing any stamping supplies and want to know what supplies I have used to create my note cards, I've listed all of the ingredients at the bottom of this post.  Click on any of the items and you'll be directed to my online store and add any of them to your shopping cart.  I am sooo appreciative to you for choosing me as your Stampin' Up! demonstrator.

 

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 $175 worth of product until March 31st)!  How exciting is that?!!   I am always very, very appreciative of your shopping excursion through my online store, too.

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.  :)

Stamp It Blog Hop — Sale-A-Bration with Painted Seasons

Hello and welcome to our Stamp It Bog Hop.  It is Sale-A-Bration season and this year's celebration is, by far, the best one I've been involved with during my last 10 years as a demonstrator.  I'm loving all of the freebies we can earn!  And, by the looks of it, YOU are enjoying it, too. I'm so glad you are here to see all of the fun creations we have designed to share with you.  Let's take a peek.

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.

Has your crafting table ever been flowing with lots of shapes of cardstock, stamped images, and die cut pieces that didn't make the cut for the original project you were working on at that time?  Yeah, me too!  I have been feverishly working on sooo many different projects using Sale-A-Bration stamps, paper and embellishments the past few weeks.  I decided I was going to create this little gem using up a few of those pieces.  We've got a little bit of Painted Seasons Designer Series Paper, flower and leaves; and, the sentiment comes from the Part of My Story stamp set. Both are available to earn free with either a $50 or $100 product purchase.  Can you save LOVELY?!!

The Painted Seasons Designer paper layer was cut out using one of the Stitched Rectangles and rests on the Basic Black layer that was dry embossed with the Subtle Embossing folder.  The sentiment was inked and heat embossed with Black Embossing powder on a Vellum Oval die cut that was framed with Pool Party cardstock.  This layer was set in place using Stampin' Dimensionals.

And, look at that beautiful flower from the Painted Seasons stamp set inked up with Poppy Parade...same color as the Painted Seasons paper layer.  Color coordination made super easy!  The leaves were inked with Granny Apple Green and added to the flower to make an arrangement.  Can you see the depth and dimension of those stamped images?  These are Stampin' Up!'s new "Distinktive" style of imagery...one single stamp impression.  Sooo pretty and half the work of double- and triple-step stamping that we've had in past stamp sets.

Would you like to create this beautiful gem?  You'll find the ingredients to create your very own Painted Seasons inspirational card listed below.  I've set it up super easy for you to click on any of the images and add to your shopping cart in my online store.  I would be so very grateful to you and your support if you shopped with me.  For more beautiful inspiration, you'll want to make sure you hop on over to the next Stamp It Group members' blogs to see what amazing Sale-A-Bration creations they have to share.  Thank you so much for stopping by....stop back again real soon.

What supplies do you need to create this beautiful Painted Seasons card? All the items used are from Stampin’ Up! and can be purchased through my online store HERE or click on the items below. A printable supply list is available as well!

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.

Has your crafting table ever been flowing with lots of shapes of cardstock, stamped images, and die cut pieces that didn't make the cut for the original project you were working on at that time?  Yeah, me too!  I have been feverishly working on sooo many different projects using Sale-A-Bration stamps, paper and embellishments the past few weeks.  I decided I was going to create this little gem using up a few of those pieces.  We've got a little bit of Painted Seasons Designer Series Paper, flower and leaves; and, the sentiment comes from the Part of My Story stamp set. Both are available to earn free with either a $50 or $100 product purchase.  Can you save LOVELY?!!

The Painted Seasons Designer paper layer was cut out using one of the Stitched Rectangles and rests on the Basic Black layer that was dry embossed with the Subtle Embossing folder.  The sentiment was inked and heat embossed with Black Embossing powder on a Vellum Oval die cut that was framed with Pool Party cardstock.  This layer was set in place using Stampin' Dimensionals.

And, look at that beautiful flower from the Painted Seasons stamp set inked up with Poppy Parade...same color as the Painted Seasons paper layer.  Color coordination made super easy!  The leaves were inked with Granny Apple Green and added to the flower to make an arrangement.  Can you see the depth and dimension of those stamped images?  These are Stampin' Up!'s new "Distinktive" style of imagery...one single stamp impression.  Sooo pretty and half the work of double- and triple-step stamping that we've had in past stamp sets.

Would you like to create this beautiful gem?  You'll find the ingredients to create your very own Painted Seasons inspirational card listed below.  I've set it up super easy for you to click on any of the images and add to your shopping cart in my online store.  I would be so very grateful to you and your support if you shopped with me.  For more beautiful inspiration, you'll want to make sure you hop on over to the next Stamp It Group members' blogs to see what amazing Sale-A-Bration creations they have to share.  Thank you so much for stopping by....stop back again real soon.

Stamping Around The World Blog Hop with Butterfly Gala

Hello, and good morning!  If you've been traveling along the Stamping Around The World 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.

The layout for this set of cards came from a swap group I participated in a month ago.  I immediately thought of the Gingham Gala Designer Series paper pack and how beautiful it would be to create an entire ensemble showcasing all 5 colors...Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight, Grapefruit Grove, Lemon Lime Twist and Highland Heather.  Don't they look stunning?  Did you notice that I changed up the patterned paper?  I love that the Gingham designer paper has two choices of checks...large and small.  Super cute!!

This little butterfly was punched from one of the black and white patterns in the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper (free during Sale-A-Bration with a $50 order) pack using the Duet Butterfly Punch.  I love that Stampin' Up! focuses on color coordination with inks and papers.  I inked up the solid wing images with Grapefruit Grove...the top set of wings was a 2nd rendition stamping technique; while the bottom set of wings was full ink.  No butterfly is complete unless its wings are smothered with some Clear Wink of Stella...they need that little bit of shine and glimmer!

Balmy Blue

 

Daffodil Delight

 

Grapefruit Grove

 

Highland Heather

 

Lemon Lime Twist

I'm extremely happy that we now have rectangle framelits in our product line.  It is a very versatile geometric shape that has been missing for a long time.  The icing on the cake is that they also die cut with stitching!  YAY!!  I inked up the splatter image from the Touches of Texture stamp set in Lemon Lime Twist before stamping the sentiment with Versa Mark and heat embossing with Black Embossing Powder.  The sentiment comes from the Butterfly Gala stamp set.

Would you like to create a bundle of cards?  You'll find the ingredients to create your very own set of Gingham Butterfly Thank You cards listed below.  I've set it up super easy for you to click on any of the images and add to your shopping cart in my online store.  I would be so very grateful to you and your support if you shopped with me.  For more beautiful inspiration, you'll want to make sure you hop on over to the next Stamping Around The World members' blogs to see what amazing creations they have to share.  Thank you so much for stopping by....stop back again real soon.

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?

OSAT Blog Hop — I Need to Thank a Hero

 

Hello-Hello stampers and paper crafters!  Welcome to my blog and the September 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 "I Need a Hero".  Now this could be a teacher, nurse, doctor, military, police, etc.  My family has members in the military, medical field, and on the police force.  Since the anniversary of the devastating 9-11 tragedy, I decided to focus my card towards the American Flag — the good Red, White and Blue.  Soooo many heros pulled together and pooled their skills and undivided attention to help with the situation handed to them. 

 

I found this image of the American flag as my creative inspiration.  There was something about the background that really stood out for me.

 

To mimic the background, I thought Gray Granite cardstock was a nice hued neutral...not too light and not too dark. 

 

It has been a while since I've played with the various Embossing Pastes and Pattern Party Decorative Masks.  To emulate the flag, I washed some Night of Navy ink using the Aqua Painter...let it dry, then created 'stars' smearing some of the Shimmery White Embossing Paste over one of the Decorative Masks.  The stripes were made using the regular Embossing Paste, which is white to start with.  Simply mix in Real Red Reinker to a small scoop of paste and you have red stripes!

Silver and Whisper White Baker's Twine compliments the sparkle from the Shimmery White stars.  The sentiment comes from the Thankful Thoughts stamp set...perfect for all Hero's...they truly GIVE of themselves to help, care and save others!  I hope you enjoyed my tribute card to all of the Hero's near and far.

Thank our Hero's Candy Sleeve

It only seemed fitting that I fill a 2" x 8" Cellophane Bag with Red, White & Blue M&M's and add a tag to compliment the Thank You card I shared above.  The Stitched Oval Framelit was die cut from Gray Granite and matted with a Night of Navy Layering Scalloped Oval.

Blog Hop Participants

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 m online shop, I literally did a little happy dance with 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.

It has been a while since I've played with the various Embossing Pastes and Pattern Party Decorative Masks.  To emulate the flag, I washed some Night of Navy ink using the Aqua Painter...let it dry, then created 'stars' smearing some of the Shimmery White Embossing Paste over one of the Decorative Masks.  The stripes were made using the regular Embossing Paste, which is white to start with.  Simply mix in Real Red Reinker to a small scoop of paste and you have red stripes!

Silver and Whisper White Baker's Twine compliments the sparkle from the Shimmery White stars.  The sentiment comes from the Thankful Thoughts stamp set...perfect for all Hero's...they truly GIVE of themselves to help, care and save others!  I hope you enjoyed my tribute card to all of the Hero's near and far.

Thank our Hero's Candy Sleeve

It only seemed fitting that I fill a 2" x 8" Cellophane Bag with Red, White & Blue M&M's and add a tag to compliment the Thank You card I shared above.  The Stitched Oval Framelit was die cut from Gray Granite and matted with a Night of Navy Layering Scalloped Oval.

A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop -- Manly Moments

Hello and welcome Stampers and Papercrafters!  It is the last day in May...yikes! but we have a really fun A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop to share with you!!  YAY! A number of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from all over the world have joined together to share alternative projects using supplies from the May monthly kit named "Manly Moments".  I'm super excited to share the projects I created for you....let's get to it, shall we!

Do you struggle creating "Manly" cards?  Yep, I do, too!  Buuut, I'm so excited to see my Paper Pumpkin kit arrive filled with the supplies to create 10 masculine cards ranging from birthday to thank you...and, including nephews and brothers.

 

Another thing I struggle with is creating clean and simple cards...this entire kit is just that.  But, of course, when I create to showcase an alternative card, I have to kick it up a notch...or two.  :)  I started with a traditional cardstock base of 4-1/4" x 11', but scoring it at 4-1/4" and 8-1/2" is not our typical card style.

I took one of the cardbases from the kit and cut the wood grain and plaid sections off of the card base so that I could use the pieces to decorate and create a really fun pocket card.

 

The front pocket can house the woodgrain notecard, but there are so many different items you can tuck into pocket cards:  bookmarks, magnets, tags, gift cards, and personalized notes.

 

Cute Thank You Tag

You are not probably going to believe this, but this little tag is made up of scraps that were laying around my craft counter.  **squeal**  I inked the "thank you" image in Mossy Meadow and stamped first and 2nd renditions onto the scrap stitched shape circle.  The woodgrain strip is from the pocket notecard that I trimmed down.  Super cute, right?!!

 

 

I'm really pleased with how these projects came together...clean and simple!  The pocket card can be for any occasion, too...birthday, anniversary, etc.  Gotta love the creations that are designed to accommodate more than one occasion.  :)

To get more inspiration for alternative ideas creating with the May Paper Pumpkin kit, make sure you visit the other A Paper Pumpkin Thing Group members' blogs to see what projects they have created to share with you.  I'll be on your heals to soak in the new ideas and inspiration.

OSAT Blog Hop -- On The Red Carpet with Share What You Love!!

 

Good morning stampers and paper crafters!  Welcome to my blog for the May One Stamp At a Time (OSAT) Design Team Blog Hop!  We are pulling out the Red Carpet to show off some Glam and Glitz with our creations. How fun is this going to be?  Waaay fun!  Let's check it out!

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.

I couldn't pass up the chance to pull out some brand new products that you, me...everyone...can preorder before the new Annual catalog goes live on June 1st.  The Share What You Love bundles are a HUGE hit, but the "Gotta Have It All" is the bomb!  The Share What You Love Designer Series Paper is ooh-la-la-licious!!

The Love What You Do stamp set is super cute, too.  Outside of the nature images, the mix of fonts for each sentiment image is my favorite.  I love the combination of block-ish type fonts with a really pretty cursive font...really adds elegance and emphasis to the emotions behind the sentiment. 

I have to tell you that my heart is sooo happy to see that Blackberry Bliss has made a come-back with the new color revamp!  It is oh-so pretty paired with a brand new color...Grapefruit Grove.

 

Share What You Love Mini Writing Tablets

It has been forever since I have decorated a notepad.  The cardstock cover is Tranquil Tide while implementing some coordinating Mint Macaron and Crumb Cake.  It is a beautiful day to create a fun little gift for a dear friend or relative.  The 1/8" Black Cord just adds that little oomph and pizzazz.

I couldn't believe it when I found a package of 5 notepads that reminded me of Mint Macaron.  And, I was right...it coordinated perfectly for the project I had in mind.  Each notepad had a thin chipboard backing, so it made it nice to glue it to the back of the cardstock back.

The Love What You Do stamp set comes in any of the 3 Share What You Love bundles, but the Share What You Love Designer Series paper only comes in the "Gotta Have It All" bundle.  Who doesn't want to have it all?!!  You really need to get your hands on this new designer series paper...oh-soooo pretty!

DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS?  Please holler if you do.  I love and appreciate your comments. No question is a stupid question!

ARE YOU A FACEBOOK FAN?  I would love it if you would "Like" my Lori Dreams Stampin page.

DO YOU CRUISE PINTEREST?  If you enjoy Pinterest, you can find my creations on Pinterest, too.

What supplies do you need to create these projects? All the items used are from Stampin’ Up! and can be bought through my online store HERE or click on the items below. A printable supply list is available as well!

 

 

I couldn't pass up the chance to pull out some brand new products that you, me...everyone...can preorder before the new Annual catalog goes live on June 1st.  The Share What You Love bundles are a HUGE hit, but the "Gotta Have It All" is the bomb!  The Share What You Love Designer Series Paper is ooh-la-la-licious!!

The Love What You Do stamp set is super cute, too.  Outside of the nature images, the mix of fonts for each sentiment image is my favorite.  I love the combination of block-ish type fonts with a really pretty cursive font...really adds elegance and emphasis to the emotions behind the sentiment. 

I have to tell you that my heart is sooo happy to see that Blackberry Bliss has made a come-back with the new color revamp!  It is oh-so pretty paired with a brand new color...Grapefruit Grove.

 

Share What You Love Mini Writing Tablets

It has been forever since I have decorated a notepad.  The cardstock cover is Tranquil Tide while implementing some coordinating Mint Macaron and Crumb Cake.  It is a beautiful day to create a fun little gift for a dear friend or relative.  The 1/8" Black Cord just adds that little oomph and pizzazz.

I couldn't believe it when I found a package of 5 notepads that reminded me of Mint Macaron.  And, I was right...it coordinated perfectly for the project I had in mind.  Each notepad had a thin chipboard backing, so it made it nice to glue it to the back of the cardstock back.

The Love What You Do stamp set comes in any of the 3 Share What You Love bundles, but the Share What You Love Designer Series paper only comes in the "Gotta Have It All" bundle.  Who doesn't want to have it all?!!  You really need to get your hands on this new designer series paper...oh-soooo pretty!

Stampin' Friends Blog Hop -- No Rules in March

 

Good morning to everyone!  Welcome to my stop on the Stampin Friends Blog Hop!  I am excited about this months stamping theme...No Rules!!  WHOOPEEEEE!  That's like eating as many sweets as your stomach can consume (without all the added calories, I might add!)  We are given free reign...totally our choice...stamp/craft anything we want!!  I can't tell you how this made my heart go pitter-patter only because these last few weeks I have struggled to find my creative MOJO juice.  If this is your first stop on the Stampin Friends Blog Hop or you arrived here from one of the other Stampin Friends bloggers, I'm excited to share with you.

Sooo, with No Rules comes the perfect opportunity to CASE (Copy and Share Everything) someone else's creation.  Or, at least gain inspiration from a card that moves me and incorporate my own tweaking of colors, designer series paper, or stamped images

 

First up, is a clean-and-simple greeting card showing off one of the patterns from the Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper.  You can choose this 12" x 12" pack free with a $50 product order during Sale-A-Bration...hurry, this most-favored event ends March 31st!

Creative Tips:

• The inspiration for this creation stems from a sample card pictured in the 2nd Sale-A-Bration release brochure.  I used the same Dapper Denim cardstock and striped pattern from the Springtime Foils Specialty paper, but I changed up the focal arrangement.

 

• To compliment the Dapper Denim cardbase and add a bit of character, I added a piece of Color Theory Designer Series Paper and banner cut the bottom end.  The sentiment comes from the Truly Tailored stamp set inked with Archival Basic Black ink and stamped onto our Shimmery White cardstock.  LOVE that paper!  You can't see in the picture, but it really compliments the Silver Foil stripes.  Add some Silver Metallic Thread to the Stitched Oval and set into place.

 

Acetate Gift Box for Dad:  I am so thrilled that the Acetate Gift Boxes from the last Holiday catalog are still available for purchase.  I cut one in half and decorated it with a belly-band using a strip of the striped Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series paper layered onto strips of the Color Theory Designer Series paper.  The focal point is using elements and design to compliment the card.  Filled it with some Sweet Soirée Ready Shreddie available in the Occasions catalog and will tuck some sweets and gift card to make it complete and ready to gift.  Super easy and oh-so adorbs!!

 

• DID YOU KNOW? that you can click on any images I include related to the project to see an enlarged version?  Yep!  I do this so that you can see the details of my projects a weeee bit better. As I get older, I'm finding myself pulling out what I call my "granny glasses".  haha

• I love to create but I don’t always feel creative.
• I need some fresh project ideas.
• How can I craft when I don’t have all the “crafting stuff” I need?

Go ahead....give it a test drive for a couple of months and get in on all the FUN!!  Plus, get it on sale for HALF the price!  If you end up not enjoying it (GASP!!), you can cancel your subscription.  But, I'm sure you will be very happy and excited to see what the next month will bring you.  Trust me!  I've been a subscriber for all 5 years and I get anxious to receive my little orange box in the mail near the middle of each month.  **squeal**

I'm so very grateful to everyone that stops to visit me; and, I appreciate you and all of your wonderful support of my favorite stamping business.  I love the visits; and it warms my heart to read your thoughts you share with each comment. If you haven't already, please share and invite your friends to stop by.  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 looking for a demonstrator to shop with, I would be ecstatic and honored to have you shop through my online store.

Alaska Achievers Blog Hop October 2017 -- Painted Autumn

 

Thank you for joining us for our FIRST Alaskan Achievers blog hop. Those hopping today are Stampin' Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world that have achieved the prestigious Stampin' Up! Incentive trip that only a limited number around the world achieve.

 

We will be hopping together once a month to show you ideas and designs using current Stampin' Up!® products. I live in Nebraska...located smack in the middle of the United States and I would love to help you, inspire you and answer any questions you may have.

Here is the project that I designed for our hop today!

 

When I was creating this card, my heart was glowing so brightly thinking about all of the wonderful friends, super supportive customers, amazing members of Lori's Dream Team and anyone who stops by my blog to visit.  I love everything about this card...from the Soft Sky scallop edge (die from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits) to the sunflowers bordered with the color of Garden Green.

 

 

The sentiment from the Painted Harvest stamp set is my all-time favorite as it reflects what I am truly feeling in my heart.  I am a farm girl at heart, so my heart tugs at creating something rustic...adding some Burlap Ribbon, Linen Thread and a hint of Vellum leaves is the perfect touch to a country card.

I am sooo thankful for each and everyone you!

Again, thank you--thank you--thank you!  I greatly appreciate you stopping by to visit me.  I love the visits; and it warms my heart to read your thoughts you share with each comment.  If you haven't already, please share and invite your friends to stop by.  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.

Thank you for joining us today - we are so happy that you are taking part in our blog hop. Make sure that you don't miss out on one blog as there are some incredible designs you are going to see today to inspire you.

You are currently at my blog - Lori Mueller at Stampin' Dreams, so check the list below to see who is after me and follow all the blogs around.

OSAT Blog Hop -- Fall and Halloween

 

Good morning stampers and paper crafters!  Welcome to my stop on the One Stamp At a Time (OSAT) Design Team Blog Hop for the month of October!  This months theme is anything Fall and Halloween.  Because I have been on an everything Halloween the last several weeks, I decided to change things up a bit and strive for a mixture of the two...Falloween.  Teehehe

This may be your first stop on the hop, or you may have hopped over here from my dear friend Maria Willis's blog. Either way, in order to view all of the blog participants sharing their wonderful craftiness, click on the "NEXT" button at the bottom of each blogger's post.

 

OMGosh!!!  I am so in love with the Pinewood Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder!  Just like the Spooky Cat stamp set and Cat Punch, this Pinewood texture is perfect for Fall-ish type cards.  It would be perfect for scrapbook pages, too!

 

The narrow strips are scraps of Watercolor Paper that I could not bare to toss into File #13 (aka...trash can).  Before adhering the strips to a piece of Garden Green cardstock, I put the strips tightly against each other so that I could give them a watercolor wash of Lemon Lime Twist, Daffodil Delight and Peek-a-boo Peach.  Then I dry embossed all the strips using the Big Shot and the Pinewood Embossing Folder.  Lastly, I sponged all edges of each watercolor strip with Soft Suede classic ink to give it a backyard board-on-board fenced-type background look.  LOVE-Love-love!!

Next, my Big Shot got a little workout with the Stitched Circle Framelit and a pumpkin from the Patterned Pumpkins Thinlits Dies set. The leaves were stamped with Garden Green Classic ink onto Garden Green cardstock (aka...Tone-on-tone stamping technique).  No fussy cutting necessary because Stampin' Up! has a leaf punch for that!  **squeal**  Add a strip of Burlap Ribbon, Metallic Gold Thread and some Glitter Enamel Dots to the picture and you've got yourself a beautiful Fall or subtle Halloween card.

 

Coordinating Patterned Pumpkins Tag

I love making coordinating gift tags!  I had a scrap piece of 2" x 3-3/4" Watercolor Paper, so I gave it the similar wash of colors used for the card, punched the top with the Scalloped punch, embossed with the Pinewood Embossing Folder, and decorated it with a Patterned Pumpkin set on top of a 2-1/2" Gold Foil punched circle and more leaves.  To tone down the Gold Foil, I sponged the edges of the pumpkin pieces with Soft Suede and glued them back into their spaces. Super adorable!

 

At this time, you are now ready to hop on over to Melissa Davies’s blog.  You won't want to miss traveling on as I know that she will have something adorable to share with you.  If you prefer to work your way backwards, you can jump back to Maria Willis's blog.  Either way, be sure to work your way through all of the blogs so you don’t miss a thing!

Good morning stampers and paper crafters!  Welcome to my stop on the One Stamp At a Time (OSAT) Design Team Blog Hop for the month of October!  This months theme is anything Fall and Halloween.  Because I have been on an everything Halloween the last several weeks, I decided to change things up a bit and strive for a mixture of the two...Falloween.  Teehehe

This may be your first stop on the hop, or you may have hopped over here from my dear friend Maria Willis's blog. Either way, in order to view all of the blog participants sharing their wonderful craftiness, click on the "NEXT" button at the bottom of each blogger's post.

 

OMGosh!!!  I am so in love with the Pinewood Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder!  Just like the Spooky Cat stamp set and Cat Punch, this Pinewood texture is perfect for Fall-ish type cards.  It would be perfect for scrapbook pages, too!

 

The narrow strips are scraps of Watercolor Paper that I could not bare to toss into File #13 (aka...trash can).  Before adhering the strips to a piece of Garden Green cardstock, I put the strips tightly against each other so that I could give them a watercolor wash of Lemon Lime Twist, Daffodil Delight and Peek-a-boo Peach.  Then I dry embossed all the strips using the Big Shot and the Pinewood Embossing Folder.  Lastly, I sponged all edges of each watercolor strip with Soft Suede classic ink to give it a backyard board-on-board fenced-type background look.  LOVE-Love-love!!

Next, my Big Shot got a little workout with the Stitched Circle Framelit and a pumpkin from the Patterned Pumpkins Thinlits Dies set. The leaves were stamped with Garden Green Classic ink onto Garden Green cardstock (aka...Tone-on-tone stamping technique).  No fussy cutting necessary because Stampin' Up! has a leaf punch for that!  **squeal**  Add a strip of Burlap Ribbon, Metallic Gold Thread and some Glitter Enamel Dots to the picture and you've got yourself a beautiful Fall or subtle Halloween card.

 

Coordinating Patterned Pumpkins Tag

I love making coordinating gift tags!  I had a scrap piece of 2" x 3-3/4" Watercolor Paper, so I gave it the similar wash of colors used for the card, punched the top with the Scalloped punch, embossed with the Pinewood Embossing Folder, and decorated it with a Patterned Pumpkin set on top of a 2-1/2" Gold Foil punched circle and more leaves.  To tone down the Gold Foil, I sponged the edges of the pumpkin pieces with Soft Suede and glued them back into their spaces. Super adorable!

 

At this time, you are now ready to hop on over to Melissa Davies’s blog.  You won't want to miss traveling on as I know that she will have something adorable to share with you.  If you prefer to work your way backwards, you can jump back to Maria Willis's blog.  Either way, be sure to work your way through all of the blogs so you don’t miss a thing!
