Stampin' Up! - Love What You Do!

 Love What You Do!

Gear Up for Lovely Layers

Step 1: Stamp textures from the Gears & Textures Stamp Set in Pretty in Pink, Gray Granite, Bubble Bath, and Timid Tiger ink (in that order) on the Very Vanilla panel; let the ink dry. Stamp the texture pattern from the Beautifully Celebrated Stamp Set on the panel using VersaMark ink. Sprinkle white embossing powder over the stamped areas, tap off the excess, and heat emboss to reveal the texture. Stamp the leaf image in Shaded Spruce ink and color in the buds with Shy Shamrock Stampin’ Blends; fussy cut and adhere. Step 2: Die cut the white layer from Basic White Cardstock using Beautifully Celebrated Dies and adhere it with Stampin' Dimensionals. Step 3: Stamp the sentiment with VersaMark ink on a strip of Bubble Bath Cardstock, sprinkle with white embossing powder, shake off the excess, and heat set. Adhere the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a sprinkle of embellishments, a Baker’s Twine bow, and a Designer Series Paper strip to the bottom of the panel. Thanks for stopping in today, take care. Cindy

Facebook Live Replay - Banner Sayings

 This week we not only played with the Banner Sayings stamp set and coordinating punch, but also the Faux Quilt Technique. Banner Sayings stamp set is an Online Exclusive Catalog #167044, it can also be bundled with the Banner Sayings punch.

Here is a close up of the card:

Project Recipe:

PAPER: Mossy Meadow Base, White Layer, Inside & Tag, Floral Charm DSP

ACCESSORIES: Perennial Postage Dies, Dimensionals, Naturel Matte Dots (March 2026 Online Exclusive), Lazy Daisy 3D Embossing Folder (March 2026 Online Exclusive)

Now sit back and watch the video so that you can see how I made this really cute faux quilt card.

Isn't this card just so cute?! I love how it turned out and I love that it uses those little scraps of DSP that we all hoard ad never do anything with.

Thanks for stopping in and have a great week.
