Love You More Tie Dyed Valentine

By | January 27, 2017
0 Comment

Tie Dyed in the Occasions Catalog is one of those sets that can easily get skipped over. It’s deep in the catalog, page 31 , and it doesn’t scream with any particular theme. But it’s a great resource for any occasion.

Today’s Love You More card is the perfect card for a spouse, son or daughter, mother or  father, in-law or friends. It’s truly multi-purpose.

Just Stamp Tips

  • The tie dyed effect is easy with the triple-step heart stamps.
  • The outer heart is stamped in Pink Pirouette. The next smallest heart is stamped off in Real Red and the innermost heart is full force Real Red.
  • The simple sentiment started with one thinlit from Sunshine Wishes cropped using Basic Black card stock, and ends using Labeler Alphabet stamped in VersaMark and finished off with Whisper White Embossing Powder.
  • A Delicate White Doily adds a touch of daintiness.

Lift Me Up Bundles with Carried Away DSP

Lift Me Up Happy Birthday

 

Lift Me Up from the new Stampin’ Up! Occasions catalog makes it easy to create a hand-stamped card for almost any occasion. Today I’m sharing a simple layout featuring the Carried Away Designer Series Paper, one of the free gifts during Sale-a-Bration.

 

Lift Me Up HB Zoom

Just Stamp Tips

  • Color coordination is easy. The Carried Away Designer Series Paper guided my choice to use the Night of Navy card stock as my card base, and the Watermelon Wonder ink as my contrasting punch of color.
  • The Stitched Shape Framelits Dies are available again. One pass through the Big Shot and the Whisper White Card Stock is cut and pierced.
  • The question always arises: Do I stamp or cut first? You definitely want to stamp first for a perfectly cropped hot air balloon.
  • Stamp the images and sentiment on a solid surface for the cleanest, sharpest images. Unlike the photopolymer stamps, you do not want to use the Piercing Mat.
  • The Banner Triple Punch crops the 3/4″ and 1″ banners in one easy action.
  • One lone Dimensional adds the perfect … dimension for the largest balloon (— not trying to be witty, promise) .

Here’s a look at the Up & Away Thinlits Dies in action.

Here’s more inspiration for you.

Who Doesn’t Love a Puppy Wearing a Santa Hat?

No one! Especially when the note card size project holds a gift card and is super cute inside out.

christmasbellagiftcard

Inspiration for today’s color combo was borrowed from the beautiful Christmas Designer Series Paper in the Holiday Catalog, Presents & Pinecones. The name should be Presents, Pinecones & Bows!

Just Stamp Tips

  • Emerald Envy, Cherry Cobble and Mint Macaron unite for a trendy Christmas color combo.
  • Pre-cut and scored Note Cards and Envelopes are an easy start to this gift card holder project.
  • Bella’s Santa hat was an easy accessory borrowed from the Snow Place Stamp Set and Snow Friends Framelits.
  • The Bow Builder Punch makes a sweet gift bow in two punches. Use the Bone Folder to stretch the loops before assembling bow. So easy!
  • One flap from the envelope  Gift Card Envelope Thinlit was snipped to create a fast pocket for a gift card.
  • The Holly Berry Builder Punch created a quick accent for the insert sheet that holds the gift card.

Can’t Miss with Traditional Colors and Theme

Santa’s Sleigh Photopolymer Stamp Set and Thinlits are packed with choices. It’s hard to choose which elements to use. There’s the adorable Christmas pine, the prancing reindeer, the ornate sleigh and all the accessories to load into the sleigh.

Just Stamp Tips

Loading up the sleigh with gifts, stocking and toy was easy. Most of the sleigh load was cropped in just two passes through the Big Shot.

Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green are traditional holiday favorites. This Christmas DSP features the two colors throughout the paper pack of 24 sheets in the perfect layering weight.
