Love You to the Moon and Back

Hey there, crafty friends!

The easel card was one of the first “fun folds” that I learned how to make years ago. It’s still one of my “go to” designs. It was also the perfect choice to showcase the “Moon & Back” stamp set.

This stand alone stamp set makes a fun background that sets the scene for the large, circular sentiments. “Love you to the moon and back” is one of our family’s frequently used sayings so I absolutely had to have this set.

The images just pop off the page when they are heat embossed with silver powder and they pair perfectly with the silver foil.

The easel fun fold is easy to create and is pefect for the recipient to have displayed and enjoy. It’s always fun to add images to the inside of your card to tie the design altogether.

Here are the supplies I used to create this fun card. They are all available at my Online Store. Just click on the photos to head over there now.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you’ll visit again soon.

Stamped Blessings, Michelle

Stamping for fun?

Hello Friends,

Happy Labor Day!

I spent some time in the studio recently creating a card for a very special wedding we attended yesterday. Usually I sis down with a design in my head with an end product in mind. This card wasn’t one where I was trying to make a project that is easy to reproduce. Sometimes it’s fun to really add all of the bells and whistles. I just stamped to my heart’s content and I LOVE how it turned out.

Since Covid is still a big, gray cloud over all events, it’s challenging to plan anything….especially a wedding. We are so honored to be included in the small group of friends who will be attending. I really wanted to make something special for the bride and groom and I hope they like it.

I love, love, LOVE the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (152494). There are so many gorgeous textures and it has a fun, rustic feel. The design I chose has a touch of Rococo Rose in and it felt perfect for this card. The Forever Fern stamp set worked perfectly along with the coordinating dies. I added a fun pocket to hold the money and then made a spot on top with space to write our message and signature.

The card is a slim line design which I love. I thought it paired perfectly with the Champagne Foil. I made a matching envelope with a cool closure too. Envelope measurements: Designer Series Paper 9-1/4″ x 11-3/4″ Score on the short side at 2-3/8″ and 6-1/2″. Score on the long edge at 1-1/2″ and 11″.

If you’d like to watch a step-by-step tutorial, check out my Facebook Live HERE where I create another card with this design.

All of the supplies I used are listed below. To add items to your shopping cart, just click on the image of the products you want to order. Easy, peasy.

Wishing you plenty of time to get your fingers inky and a wonderful week ahead.

Stampin’ Hugs,

Michelle

Snow out my window and
Spring in my studio…

Yes, I realize that it’s technically still winter but Mother Nature needs to make up her mind already. Snow and sleet today and then it’s supposed to be 70 degrees here on Sunday. Seriously?

Oh well…it might night be all flowers and sunshine out my window but it sure is here in the studio. I have been playing with a NEW set of freebies that were just introduced in the Sale a bration 2nd release and I love them.

By now you probably know that Sale a bration (or SAB) is one of Stampin’ Up’s biggest promotions of the year. With every $50 you spend you can choose one Level 1 product for FREE and with every $100 you can choose one from Level 2.

This year’s freebies are some of my all time favorites. No kidding! To see all Level 1 and 2 items, JUST CLICK HERE

Here are the 2nd release products that just went LIVE this past week. They are flying off of the shelves! No surprise there…

This week’s Facebook LIVE Tuesday featured the gorgeous “Country Floral” Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder.
If you missed it, you can always check it out on my Suitably Stamped Facebook Page. JUST CLICK HERE

I shared how to create stunning cards using the folder, some ink and a few daubers.

Just look at that detail and those colors! Wowza! I feel spring in the air just looking at them.

The Country Florals embossing folder pairs beautifully with the “Beauty Abounds” Bundle from the Occasions Catalog (Pg. 13)
Remember that you’ll save 10% when you order the stamp set and framelits as a bundle. If you order the bundle, you’ll be able to choose the folder for FREE! Woot!

Not only is the embossing folder perfect for creating cards, check it out when it’s used to emboss one of our Acetate Card Boxes. How exciting would it be to get a beautiful box of handmade cards?

See that beautiful, metallic edge coordinating ribbon? That was easy peasy! I used the 3/8″ Metallic Edge Ribbon (silver/white) and colored it with my Stampin’ Markers.
Cool, right?

Here are the stamp set and framelits in the Bundle…

You can see these and more at my Online Store. JUST CLICK HERE

Here are all of the supplies used to create the project from the Facebook LIVE.

I hope wherever you are today that you’re snug and warm. I also hope you’ll be inspired to create a little “spring” of your own.

Wishing you a magical day,
