Friends Are Like Seashells embody our treasures

I have thoroughly loved using Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set and die set! It is so beautiful and makes me think of searching for treasures - seashells - in the sand by the water or just taking a calm walk on in the sand by the water. This is one of my favorite spreads this month.


  • The shells here use Shimmer White CS #101910 and are

  • Sponged with colors: Flirty Flamingo, Misty Moonlight, and Mint Macaroon

  • The background paper is Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper #154288 on page 41 in January to June mini catalog

  • 12 x 12 CS is Seaside Spray……sadly retired

Order Sand & Sea DSP before the end of June! It will be retiring also.

My 2nd May scrapbook spread uses You’re A Peach Suite on page 60 of the Annual Catalog.

IMG_0931.jpeg

  • Sweet As A Peach Bundle # 155823 on page 61 annual catalog

  • You’re A Peach 12 x 12 DSP #155686

  • 12 x 12 In Color CS #155642 Pale Papaya CS and #155672 Pale Papaya ribbon

  • TIP: stamp the leaves in Pear Pizzazz ink and die cut, then stamp the flowers in Pale Papaya and before stamping on CS, us a Sponge Dauber to tip the edges of flowers in Calypso Coral ink. Then, stamp on scrap Basic White CS and die cut. Attach flowers on leaves with a Stampin’ Dimensional

Beautiful cards from my team!

You too can join my team and meet with us every other month. When we meet, some like to swap cards. In other words, you make 15 of your card and you’ll go home with 14 other cards that are different. This is a great way to see new ideas! Of course there are a lot of other perks for joining too, like a discount.

The first card is another winner of a chick card!!!! This is from Judy P.

A fun fold from Linda M. See the little triangle at the bottom right to tuck the card front in? Cute!

And an absolutely beautiful use of a fun fold on the front of the card creating a window for the butterfly from #155821 Butterfly Brilliance Bundle by JoAnn F.

IMG_0943.jpeg

And another fun fold card front from Annette G. using Painted Poppies and Peaceful Moments #151599 and #151595 creating a sweet birthday card!

Ice Cream Corner Suite for the hot summer days with picture tutorial

 

Don’t miss out on sprinkles and Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper! Another catalog is coming to a close….or at least some of the products. On the upside of it all, there will be lots of fun stamps, papers, and dies to explore and be creative with in the new July to December mini catalog.

But…..there are a few things you may want to make sure you order while still available!

The Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper (DSP) and Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles will be retired and no longer sold after June or when supplies run out! I know I’ve had a lot of fun with this Suite and it’s perfect for summer birthdays and family scrapbook spreads celebrating the hot summer days!

You may want to go ahead and purchase the stamp/punch bundle also. Purchase before the end of June, and you will receive a 10% discount when getting the bundle. The stamp set and punch is in the annual catalog, but does not have a bundle discount.

B4232357-3055-486E-8048-37899249F7EE.jpeg

I’ve include a picture tutorial following to make this cute slim line card plus a couple of card ideas at the end. Look back on my blog on April 25th - the post titled Friends Are Like Seashells for more inspiration with Sweet Ice Cream. I’m including a hostess code at the end for you to order products.

C121CD40-E8C1-46D3-9A65-D01C1E98C12D.jpeg

  • Begin with the piece of Ice Cream Corner DSP that looks like a waffle cone cut 6” x 1 1/2” and use a oval die to round corners by inserting the one edge under the die and keeping the other end over the die. Do this for both sides.

6CB327C8-C035-40C6-BFA0-CD41F7F406FF.jpeg

  • Next, pull out the colors that coordinate with your favorite flavors of ice cream:

  • mint - Soft Seafoam

  • strawberry - Flirty Flamingo

  • peach - Pale Papaya

  • chocolate - Early Espresso

  • bubble gum - Coastal Cabana

  • cherry cheesecake - Blackberry Bliss

  • you pick……I know it will be delicious! Stamp on scrap Basic White and punch out

0406F196-20FA-4329-9783-1CC9D1471E90.jpeg

  • Cut a slimline card base 7 1/2” x 8 1/2” and score the 7 1/2” in half at 3 3/4” all the way down the 8 1/2” side

  • Cut a piece of Blackberry Bliss CS 3 1/8” x 7 7/8” for matte

  • Cut a piece of Ice Cream Corner DSP 3” x 7 3/4”

  • Pull out Ice Cream Sprinkles, Blackberry Bliss Striped Ribbon, either Tombo or Shimmery Crystal Effects, and your Stampin’ Dimensionals

F61A6AD2-1D9A-41F4-A6A7-F3EDB078EF4F.jpeg

  • Attach DSP to Blackberry Bliss matte and

  • Then tie a strip of Blackberry Bliss ribbon around in a knot

  • Attach Blackberry Bliss matte to scored card base

  • Attach ice cream scoops with Stampin’ Diminsionals

11A3AB1A-8F43-4A76-A990-F32BEB32F01A.jpeg

You have a couple of choices on adding Ice Cream Sprinkles. Here, Elizabeth, has put a small drop of Tombo where she want’s the sprinkles OR you can spread Shimmery Crystal Effects all over the ice cream scoop to look shiny, cold, and wet and then add Ice Cream Sprinkles by just dropping on. The Shimmery Crystal Effects is by far, the easiest way! :)

I had trouble getting my iPad to allow me to type for the Sunday blog….so sorry! I did want to share some of the last wonderful moments at Maui. This has totally been one of the best vacations we have had! While on the resort…the scenery was just like pictures….totally beautiful!!!! And I definitely got some needed rest plus we got to see God’s beauty in a different part of the world. I was very impressed that Hawaiians are extremely polite and have a view that everyone should be polite - certainly makes for a pleasant life. Thank you all for helping me earn this trip!!!

Below is the final sunset, Luau Saturday evening with Camille and Elizabeth, and Sunday sunrise. Below that are a few cards from all of the swap cards from the trip.

Beautiful Maui! plus New pansy video

This is paradise this side of Heaven!

This is paradise this side of Heaven! So very beautiful, warm, and windy here in Maui. Stampin’ Up is taking such good care of us. The view above is late afternoon from our balcony. I will post additional pictures of our trip on my Facebook. You may find me at stamptogether by Esther.

May is flying by……at least for me! But, I certainly do not want you to miss out on the extra perks offered this month! Consider the perks of a 20-25% discount on your own purchases, being able to learn more and connecting at team meetings every other month, and able to preorder a month earlier than customers. During the moth of May, you’ll receive $155 of your choice of products for $99 starter kit. There is no obligation from Stampin’ Up or me to continue but if you would like to explore the possibilities of reaching out to make new friends and earning a little more income to spend on Stampin’ Up, I can guide you.

Or, you may want to incite a couple of friends you have been wanting to reconnect with and have a party! During May, you earn an extra $25 in hostess benefits on a $250 party…… that will get you a nice new bundle of produces from the new annual catalog!😃

Please reach out to me via text or email for more info or to discuss on either join8ng or to schedule your party,

Today’s video tutorial is another using the sweet Pansy Patch bundle. For years, I have loved and thought pansy’s look like happy faces!😊.

Pansy Patch Bundle

 

Happy Mother’s Day!

I hope all have a some kind of a special day today…..Whether we have children or not, we have had and continue to have a good influence on others lives! Please know that you are loved with an everlasting love!

This post, along with the next 2 posts will have video tutorials on Pansy Patch Bundle. This is a totally versatile set with stamps and dies to make such a variety of “happy faces”! Again, I think the Designer Series Paper totally is a winner too!

With the purchase of a bundle - both stamps and dies together, you receive a 10% discount.

Bundle Item # 155674 $51.25

Suite Item # 155810 $70.25 which includes the bundle, Designer Series Paper, and Bumblebee Trinkets

Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper #155807 $11.50

To order, please visit my web site SHOP NOW

This week I received a beautiful Sweet Strawberry card from a friend. She has cut out and added color to the berries. I loved the simplicity and beauty of this card! Not to be a tease….the Strawberry bundle/punch is coming! Stampin’ Up has the end of May as an expected order date.
