Hello Friends,

Welcome to Make in Minutes Monday!  Today, I'll show you how to make a Miss You Card in minutes.  It's super simple the Plush Poinsettia and Plaid Tidings Designer Papers do most of the heavy lifting.

How to Make a Card In Minutes

Cut a 4-1/4" x 11" Thick Whisper White card base and score at 5-1/2".

Then cut two pieces of designer paper 4-3/4" x 3-1/2".  I use Plush Poinsettia and Plaid Tidings paper.  The Plaid Tidings paper has 48 sheets of yummy plaids in each package and the Plush Poinsettia all I can say is Wow!  This flocked paper with its gorgeous designs is fairly transparent allowing the pretty plaid to peek through and dazzle us.

I stamped my Miss You sentiment with a stamp from the Blooms in Blossom stamp set and Blackberry Blis Ink onto Melon Mambo cardstock.  Then, I simply trimmed around my sentiment. 

My little heart house accent piece was cut with the Home Together Dies.  That's it!  Your card is complete!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  For your shopping convenience, there's a Card Supply list below.

Have a fabulous day,

 

Hello Friends,

I love the new August-December 2020 Stampin' Up! Catalog and I love Sneak Peeks!  Meet the Coming Home Bundle from the Trimming the Town Suite by Stampin' Up!.  While the Coming Home Bundle was definitely designed with winter and holidays in mind, it's also versatile enough to be used for many other occasions.  So for my Sneak Peeks of the Coming Home Bundle, I designed a Welcome Card, a Miss You Card, and a Welcome Gift of Homemade Raspberry Peach Jam.

Far Apart But Close At Heart Card

First, I die cut my red polka dot road using the Home Together Dies (item #153515) and Trimming the Town Designer Paper (item #153491).  At this point, it was only natural to add a little red card.  To make the card, I inked up my card stamp from the Coming Home Stamp set (item #153500) and then die-cut my card using the Home Together Dies.  The Mile Apart sentiment is a stamp from the Well Said stamp set (item #148796).  Note:  Thick Whisper White Card Stock (#140272) makes the best White Card Bases.

Welcome Home Card

This time the Trimming the Town Designer Paper covers the front of my card.  The little houses are so stinkin' cute.  Again I used the Coming Home Stamp set and Home Together Dies to fashion my card focal point.  I chose Poppy Parade, Old Olive, and Pool Party Card Stocks because they are colors included in the Designer Paper.  It so, so easy to choose project colors when they are listed in the Stampin' Up! Catalog and on the Designer Paper Pack.  Once again I snagged a stamp from the Well Said stamp set to stamp my sentiment.  The only additional tool that I used for this card was the Stitched Shapes Dies (item # 152323).  Inks used for today's cards and tags were Misty Moonlight and Early Espresso.

Bundle and Save 10%

The Coming Home Bundle (item # 155144) and the Trimming the Town Designer Paper will be available to order with the launch of the August-December 2020 Stampin' Up! Catalog on August 4, 2020.

Hello Friends,

The countdown begins!  We are a mere two weeks away from the launch of the 2020-2021 Stampin' Up! Catalog.  If you are a Stamping Country Country Customer, you have already received your Hot Off the Press Catalog or you will receive it any day now.  Today, I wanted to give you a little Sneak Peek of the Blossoms in Bloom Bundle.  It is stunning!  

The Many Layered Blossoms dies did all the heavy lifting on today's card.  Just look at the gorgeous array of flowers.  I backed my dies with a piece of Bumblebee In Color Designer Paper, so there was no coloring needed to make my flowers pop.

I flipped the designer paper over to stamp my "sure do miss you" sentiment from the Blossoms in Bloom stamp set.  I hope that today's Blossoms in Bloom Sneak Peek brought a ray of sunshine into your day.

On a side note, be sure to compare your current Stampin' Up! Catalog with your new 2020 Catalog so that you don't miss out on something that's going away.  All Last-Chance products are While Supplies Last!

Have a fabulous day,
