Retiring Stamp Day #26

 Hello & Happy Sunday!

I hope your having a good weekend!

Today I have card #26 to share using a retiring Stampin Up! stamp set.

Snowflake Wishes is on page 90 of the current Stampin Up! catalog. 

You would miss it since it's only a small section on that page.

When this stamp set came out in 2020 it was part of a suite with the dies & paper so when I look to pull a set out I always grab the DSP that was in the collection. 

Last year Stampin Up! retired the DSP and carried over the stamps & dies. 

I have a hard time moving forward with the stamps without the paper. 

Card Details:

Stamps: Snowflake Wishes

Ink: Pacific Point, Balmy Blue

Cardstock: Pacific Point, Basic White, Snowflake Splendor DSP (retired)

Accessories: So Many Snowflakes Dies, Hippo & Friends Dies, Wintry 3D EF, Blue Gems, Snowflake Splendor Ribbon, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I'm bummed that this set is retiring.....it's one of my favorites!

 Good Morning & Happy Tuesday!

Sorry for the late update today!

Yesterday was a long day with taking down Halloween & putting it away then doing my cleaning and putting my Thanksgiving decorations out. 

Then Shawn had a doctor appointment at 7:30 last night! 

I think I was asleep before my head hit the pillow!

So today I have a Christmas card to share...I think it's one of my favorites so far!

I used the Snowflake Splendor Suite that came out last year.

If you've been following along you know I have finally broken down and purchased the Blending Brushes and the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and played with them! I LOVE THEM!

Card Details:

Stamps: Snowflake Wishes

Ink: Pacific Point

Cardstock: Pacific Point, Basic White, Snowflake Splendor DSP (retired), Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper (retired)

Accessories: Wintry 3D EF, Seasonal Layers Dies, Tasteful Labels Dies, So Many Snowflakes Dies, Snowflake Splendor Ribbon (retired), Blue Gems, Blending Brushes, Adorning Designs Decorative Masks, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I love blues so I guess that is why I love this one!

Plus I am using up retired papers.

Hope you like it as much as I do!

Snowflake Wishes Thank You

 Hello & Happy Wednesday!

Today I am sharing some Thank You cards I made for customers earlier this month.

I always try to send a thank you note with their receipt included to let them know how much I appreciate their orders! I used products from the Snowflake Splendor Suite for them.

These were not the best pictures and I tried to doctor them up the best I could.

I love the texture that the embossing folder adds to this!

Isn't that DSP so pretty? And that ribbon is quite different!

It's a very stiff ribbon but oh so sparkly!

Card Details:

Stamps: Snowflake Wishes

Ink: Pool Party

Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Pool Party, Whisper White, Snowflake Splendor DSP

Accessories: Circle Layering Framelits, Winter Snow EF, Snowflake Splendor Ribbon, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I'm thrilled that the Snowflake Wishes stamp set & the So Many Snowflakes Dies are carrying over!

I have used it many times this season and loved having a nice Snowflake set again!

Doesn't that picture remind you of a scene from a Hallmark Christmas movie?

Thanks for stopping by & have a wonderful day!

Festive Snowflurries

 Hello & Happy Thursday!

This week seems to be flying by!

The weather has been beautiful all week so far!

As far as i'm concerned, it can stay this way all year long!

Sunshine & 70's is my favorite! 

I have a set of Christmas cards to share today that I whipped up a few weeks ago.

I keep a basket of leftover parts & pieces on my shelf and as I was looking thru it I found all these gorgeous snowflakes ready to be used!

Some people like their holiday cards in the traditional red & green colors but there are also some who like their cards with beachy colors as well.

This set is done in Coastal Cabana & Smoky Slate.

My snowflakes are from the retired Festive Flurries stamp set & coordinating Framelits.

Card Details:

Stamps: Festive Flurries (retired), Snowflake Wishes

Ink: Smoky Slate, Coastal Cabana

Cardstock: Coastal Cabana, Whisper White, Coastal Cabana DSP

Accessories: Festive Flurry Framelits, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Winter Snow EF, Snowflake Splendor Ribbon, Rhinestones, Glue Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

They turned out beautiful, don't ya think?

I have lots more images in that basket that I may try to turn into cards, eventually!

It's always fun to breathe new life into the older stamps!

Snowflake Splendor Gift Card Holder

 Hello & Happy Monday!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend!

It was a busy one here!

The front porch railings are all finished and then yesterday after football was over we put out the Halloween decorations & lights! Slowly getting things checked off our To Do List!

Today I am going to just take it easy as my back is giving me some grief.

And speaking of football...our Baltimore Ravens won yesterday!

I made a pot of chili for the 1st game of the season and we proudly hung our Raven's flags out front!

It was a good game but VERY odd not seeing anyone in the stands!

I said yesterday that I have not stamped for over a week now.

Believe me, I have plenty to share since I usually work ahead.

I'm still hoping something soon comes along to spark my creativity as my mojo has gone on vacation!

I'm suppose to be creating cards for my next Stamp Day w Friends get together but nothing has been coming to me. I will most likely not have another one now until October sometime.

Today I am sharing a Holiday Gift Card Holder made using the Snowflake Splendor Suite.

Here is the template for the gift card holder that I always use.

It was a sketch challenge one year over at Splitcoaststampers.

On this gift card holder I wrapped a belly band around it for something different.

Card Details:

Stamps: Snowflake Wishes

Ink: Pacific Point, Balmy Blue

Cardstock: Pacific Point, Balmy Blue, Whisper White, Snowflake Splendor DSP

Accessories: So Many Snowflakes Dies, Winter Snow EF, Snowflake Splendor Ribbon, Blue Adhesive Backed Gems, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I really like the colors in this suite!

Snowflake Splendor

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

Hope your finding ways to stay cool!

Yesterday we hit 100 degrees and it was just horrible out.

Today it might be a tad cooler as they are calling for storms.

I know my yard & garden could use it!

Today I have a card to share using a new suite from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.

I joined in on a Christmas in July Card Swap where we were given 1 person to send a card to.

This is the Snowflake Splendor Suite of products!

I think I used everything from it for this card.

I'm always a sucker for a snowflake set for some reason!

This one sang to me especially that paper!

The paper has a few different colors in that just make it stand out.

I love the sparkle of the Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper and the Blue Gems!

And that ribbon is like nothing I have ever used before.

It's a stiff ribbon but loaded with so much shimmer!

The stamp set has many snowflakes in but also some cute sayings which is something I always like!

Lastly is the Winter Snow Embossing Folder.

Pretty embossed snowflakes that go well with this suite!

Card Details:

Stamps: Snowflake Wishes

Ink: Pacific Point

Cardstock: Pacific Point, Whisper White, Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper, Snowflake Splendor DSP

Accessories: So Many Snowflake Dies, Winter Snow EF, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Blue Gems, Snowflake Splendor Ribbon, Glue Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I'm looking forward to creating more cards & projects with this suite!

I love snowflakes & lots of sparkle!
