A Little Love From Me To You Card

churiejohnson

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner so I decided to have some fun with the Stampin’ Up Most Adored Designer Series Paper (DSP) which is one of the items you can earn for free during Sale-A-Bration with a minimum qualifying order. The colors I used for this slimline card is Real Red, Flirty Flamingo, and Gold. The hearts were created using the Stampin’ Up Hooray For Surprises dies. The sentiment, “A little love from me to you” is one of the stamps in the Sending Love stamp set.

Card measurements:

Card base: 7″ x 8.5″ (scored at 3.5″)

Designer Series Paper (front of card): 3″ x 8″

Designer Series Paper (inside of card): 3.25″ x 8.25″

Basic White cardstock (inside of card): 3″ x 8″

I decided to add some of the Most Adored Designer Series Paper to the inside of the card with Basic White cardstock layered on top of it. The Flirty Flamingo Swirl Designer Series Paper adds a little pizzaz to the inside of this card.

Below is a list of supplies I used to create this card. Happy Stamping! 🙂

Encouragement Card

I made this cute card to encourage someone. I created the coffee cup using the Stampin’ Up ice cream cone die in the Ice Cream Swirl die set… yes, you read that correctly. 🙂 I used several Stampin’ Up die sets to make the card: Perennial Postage dies, Ice Cream Swirl dies, and Give it a Whirl dies. The sentiment, “Sometimes you just have to reheat your coffee one more time and try again,” is a part of the Stampin’ Up Coffee With Friends stamp set. To give this card some dimension, I raised the Crumb cake up using the Stampin’ Up Foam Adhesive Sheets.

The color combination I used for this card is the following:

The card measurements:

Card base: 11″ x 4.25″ (scored at 5.5″)

Crumb Cake layer: 5″ x 3.5″

Moody Mauve layer: Perennial Postage Dies

Soft Sea Foam Designer Series Paper: 4″ x 2.75″

I just love this sentiment in the inside of this card, “You’ve got this,”. Sometimes people just need a little bit of encouragement.

Love You Card

I am not sure about you, but when I saw the Stampin’ Up Ice Cream Swirl bundle in the January – April 2024 Mini Catalog it had fun written all over it. Right now the weather is still on the cold/cool side and ice cream has not really been on my mind… but a cup of hot, delicious coffee sounds amazing. 🙂 With that being said, I found a way to create a cup of coffee using the Stampin’ Up Ice Cream Swirl dies. I used the ice cream cone die to die cut the shape from a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and Basic White cardstock. Next, I cut the Crumb Cake cone just above where the rim starts (base of the cup). Then I cut the white piece of the cup from the Basic White cone and layered it on top of the Crumb Cake cone. To make the white top of the lid, I cut a Basic White piece of cardstock .25″ x 1.5″ and adhered it to the back of the white lid. To add some pizzaz to the cup, I used the coffee sleeve die to die cut a white sleeve and then I embossed the coffee sleeve with the Basics 3D Embossing Folders. The sleeve will hang over the side of the cup, but after adhering it to the coffee cup you can cut the excess off using a pair of scissors. Lastly, I added a stitched Real Red heart to the sleeve. The heart was die cut using one of the dies included in the Give it a Whirl die set.

Color Combination:

I thought it would be real cute to add a gift card pocket to the inside of the card. What a perfect gift… a gift card to the person’s favorite coffee place. 🙂

Use Stampin’ dimensionals to adhere the Cake with candle image oval punched piece over the bird stamped image. I then stamped the flower image from the Hooray For Surprises bundle in Pool Party ink on Pool Party cardstock and die cut the image out using the coordinating dies. Lastly, you will assemble all the pieces together to make the card.

The white square postage stamp layer was die cut using the Perennial Postage dies. The measuring tape was die cut from the Trusty Toolbox DSP using the Trusty Tools Dies. Next, the sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set was stamped in Lost Lagoon on a 1″ x 3.25″ piece of Basic White cardstock. Lastly, I used the heart die from the Give it a Whirl die set to die cut the heart out of Poppy Parade cardstock.

For the inside of the card I wanted to add a special touch. The Crushed Curry layer is 5″ x 3.75″. The white layer was die cut using the Perennial Postage dies. The Poppy Parade heart was die cut using the Give it a Whirl days.

Today I wanted to highlight two of the Sale-A-Bration products that a person can earn with a qualifying Stampin’ Up order: Sunny Days 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) and Heartfelt Hellos stamp set that coordinates with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.

Next, I die cut a scalloped rectangle using the Scalloped Contour die set. The Sunny Days DSP layer is 4.75″ x 3.5″. The Shaded Spruce strip is 1.5″ x 4.25″. The Love You More Sentiment from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set was stamped on Basic White cardstock in Poppy Parade ink, the border was stamped in Poppy Parade ink using the image from the Stampin’ Up Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set, and then it was punched out using the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. The Crushed Curry and Basic White circles were die cut using the Stylish Shapes dies. The Poppy Parade hearts were die cut using the dies from the Give it a Whirl die set. Lastly, the turtle image from the Playing in the Rain stamp set was stamped on Basic White cardstock, colored using Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends, and die cut using the Playing in the Rain dies. To add some pizzaz, I used some Black and White 1/4″ gingham ribbon.

I really enjoyed adding a special touch to the inside of this card. The Poppy Parade layer is 5.25″ x 4″ and then I die cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using a scalloped rectangle die from the Scalloped Contour die set.
