Day Two: Lots of Happy Card Kit

Rosanne January 9, 2018 January 8, 2018Birthday, Cards

I’m back again today with another card alternative using the Lots of Happy Card Refill Kit. Like I mentioned yesterday, I only purchased the refill kit and used sentiments from sets I had on hand. This proved to be a fun exercise. HERE’S yesterday’s card.

Here’s the details

Look at all the elements included in just the refill kit. The All-Inclusive kit includes even more. That’s a lot of cards and a lot of fun!

All the elements I used on this card came from the refill kit and were colored with Stampin’ Blends.
I sponged the vellum leaves with Pear Pizzazz ink.

The sentiment is from the Best Birds stamp set. It’s stamped in Basic Black ink and cut with the Layering Squares Framelits.
A Gold Foil scalloped square and Basic Black square are adhered to the larger square included with the kit. It’s then popped with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Two sentiments from the Best Birds stamp set combined to create the inside sentiment.
I cut the kit’s image to embellish the inside, as well.
Again the envelope didn’t need any help from me, but I just couldn’t resist with this one and added a little more embellishment to the front.

I hope you have a terrific Tuesday and will come back tomorrow as I’ll have a 3-D project to share for the Pals Blog Hop.

Take care,

Rosanne

A Week of Lots of Happy!

Rosanne January 8, 2018 January 7, 2018Birthday, Cards

Happy Monday! Today I’m featuring something a little different on my blog. I will be posting a project each day using the Lots of Happy Card Kit available NOW in the new Occasions Catalog.

I have had the most fun putting together this weeks’ worth of posts featuring the images and products from this kit. However, I only purchased the refill and used sentiments from my Stampin’ Up! sets that I already had. I also used Stampin’ Blends to color the images that came with the refill kit. I think this is just another testament to the versatility and value you can find with Stampin’ Up! Kits. After all, it’s really all about the creativity, so I just got a little more creative and came up with a week of alternate projects along with the projects featured in the video.

Here’s the details

The card base, Whisper White card stock layer and striped Designer Series Paper is from the Lots of Happy Card Kit Refill. This was so easy since everything is already pre-cut and scored.
Using the Lemon Lime Twist Ombre Ribbon included with the kit, I wrapped it vertically around the DSP layer and added a small bow.
I popped the Whisper White and DSP layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals unto the card base.

The floral image is also included in the kit and was so relaxing to color with Stampin’ Blends. After coloring the flowers, I added a bit of Clear Wink of Stella to each of the blooms. It gives them a pretty shimmer.
The vellum leaves, also included in the kit, were sponged with Pear Pizzazz ink.
The sentiment is from the Birthday Blooms stamp set and is stamped in Basic Black ink and cropped with the Layering Circles Framelits.
Another circle is cut from Lemon Lime Twist card stock.
As a finishing touch, I added a few iridescent sequins.

The inside sentiment is also from the Birthday Blooms stamp set.
A little strip of card stock give the inside a splash of color!
The envelope that was included with the kit needed no help from me!

I was most surprised by how much fun I had using the elements in this kit and the versatility of all the products. I love the clean look of this card…it’s my kind of card and what I’m most comfortable creating. I hope that you’ll come back tomorrow to see alternate card from the Lots of Happy Card Kit refill.

Take care,

Rosanne

Baby, It’s (really) Cold Outside – TTTC #29

Welcome back to the first Tic Tac Toe Challenge of 2018. This week’s challenge board is so relative given the fact that the temperature here in SE Pennsylvania has been below freezing since right after Christmas.

I loved all the winter elements that Felicita gave us to work with this week as I was definitely in a winter frame of mind!

I reached for some non-SU products to create this card. I’m a huge fan of Lawn Fawn’s sweet images and have had this Winter Alpaca set for quite some time. The sentiment could not be more perfect!

Here’s the details

The A2 card base is Whisper White thick card stock with a gingham pattern measuring 4″ x 5 1/2″.

I cut a circle from the Layering Circles framelits and stamped the snowflakes with Versa Mark ink from the newly retired, Tags and Trimmings stamp set. They’re heat embossed with white embossing powder.
Some tiny pearls accent the center of some of the snowflakes.
A scalloped framelit from the Layering Circles created a frame. This is adhered to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The adorable alpaca was stamped with Black Memento ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends markers.
I stamped him again on patterned paper and pieced it to create the scarf. He, too, is popped with Dimensionals.

The sentiment is stamped on Crumb Cake card stock and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
The envelope is embellished with the same patterned paper used on the scarf.

Another cute little sentiment from Lawn Fawn’s Winter Alpaca set stamped on the inside, leaves room for a personal note.

I hope you’ll head over the to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge site and check out my design teammates creative take on this fun challenge board. While you’re there, I also hope that you’ll be inspired to share your own creation with us.

Thanks for stopping by today and stay warm!

Take care,

Rosanne

Out with the Old…In with the New (Year)

Happy New Year! I hope you enjoyed a wonderful holiday. I took a little blog break to enjoy the season, which always goes by so fast. I’m happy to be back and excited to share some new products that will be available in the 2018 Occasions Catalog and the new Sale-a-bration Catalog. Ordering from both catalogs will be available tomorrow, January 3.

Today’s card features products from the current Annual Catalog, the Holiday Catalog, the new Occasions Catalog and the Sale-a-bration Catalog. Today is the last day to order from the Holiday Catalog.

Here’s the measurements

Basic Black card stock 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″
Old Olive card stock 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″
Merry Little Christmas DSP 5 1/4″ x 4″
Old Olive panel 2 3/4″ x 4″
Whisper White panel 2 1/2″ x 4″

Here’s the details

The card base is Basic Black card stock with a mat of Old Olive and Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper.
The cute little Panda, from the Party Pandas stamp set, is stamped in Basic Black Archival ink and hand cut. This set is one that you can earn during Sale-a-bration with a $50 purchase. I love the adorable little bears in this set.
The Panda is adhered to the Old Olive and Whisper White panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The balloons were punched using the Balloon Bouquet Punch and patterns from Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper.
Before adhering the balloons with Dimensionals, I added the numbers from the NEW Sweet Soiree Embellishment kit that will be available in the Occasions Catalog. This is such a wonderful little kit with so much potential to make pretty cards and it’s such a terrific value.
I drew the strings for the balloons with a marker.
The sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set and is punched with the Classic Label Punch.

Thanks very much for stopping by today and I wish you a very Happy New Year and look forward to a wonderful and creative year!

I’ve added a new hostess code for January. For each order of $75 or more, I will send you a set of Very Vanilla Note Cards as a thank you. You can read all the details HERE. I truly appreciate each and every order!

Take care,

Rosanne
