Wishing You Well Upgrade

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Mix It UP! Monday and I have an upgraded version of the card I shared with you yesterday.  I used the exact same product that was used to create yesterday's card ....... but added a slight twist to bring this card up to the next stamping level.

Here's my Spot Light Sunday card from yesterday on the LEFT....

And my Mix-It-UP! Monday card for today on the RIGHT.....

The first change I made to my upgraded card ......... Was changing the orientation.

I only added a panel of the 'Flirty Flamingo Brights Designer Series Paper' to the bottom section of my upgraded card.

To the top of my card ....... I added a panel of Flirty Flamingo card stock.  I used the 'Wishing You Well' set to stamp my sentiment onto that Flirty Flamingo panel.

My floral sprig was stamped from the same 'Wishing You Well' set ....... but for my upgraded version, I layered it with two 'Layering Circle' pieces. 

I also added several of the 'Share What You Love Artisan Pearls' around the stamped sprig ....... And then finished that piece off with a pretty double 'Linen Thread' bow.

So tell me friends.......

Do you have a favorite?????

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a 3-D Tuesday creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Wishing You Well

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from both the 2018-2019 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog and a carry over item from the 2018 Stampin' UP! Holiday Catalog.   This card uses several products from both of those catalogs .......... And I'm thrilled with the way it turned out.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today..........

How POSITIVELY PRETTY is this card!

I used the 'Wishing You Well' set that Stampin' UP! will carry over into 2019.  My sentiment was stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink onto a 1/2" Whisper White panel ....... And then I positioned it between two panels of the 'Flirty Flamingo Brights Designer Series Paper'.

After I stamped the sentiment ...... I positioned two 'Share What You Love Artisan Pearls' on both sides of that stamped sentiment.

My pretty floral sprig image was stamped from the same 'Wishing you Well' set ........ And I used Flirty Flamingo ink to stamp that image.

I just couldn't be happier with the way this card turned out!

What do you think?????

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share an upgraded version of this very card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Wonderful Time of the Year

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And I would like to share with you the project I created using the November Paper Pumpkin kit.   Here's that project.......

How fun is this alternate card......

I started out by stamping the sentiment that was included in this kit onto one of the wood grain sticker (also includes in this kit).  I used Cherry Cobbler ink to stamp my sentiment.

Creating a side Designer Series panel was a snap ....... With the DSP that was included in this kit.  To make that DSP panel POP ........ All I did was add a panel of Cherry Cobbler card stock behind the Designer Series Paper.

The embellishment was created with the supplies that were included in this kit.  I'm loving how the Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine tied up into a pretty bow ....... And all I needed to do was drape a few of the sprigs (included in this kit) under the center of the Baker's Twine bow.

All that was left to do was sprinkle a few of the Gold Sequins (that also came with this kit) on the front of my card ...... And this card was done in no time flat.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Spot Light Sunday card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Let's jump right in with my tag share for today........

This happy tag was used on some of my last minute holiday gifts this year.

I started out with a panel of the 'Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper' on a Real Red tag.

At the top of the tag ...... I added some 'Mossy Meadow Festive Farmhouse Cotton Twine' ...... And tied it up into a pretty bow.

My sentiment piece was stamped from the 'Christmas Traditions Punch Box' set.......

And a I added White Gel Pen stitching around the outer edge of the Designer Series Paper.

And that's all it took my friends to create this pretty holiday tag.

Festive Wine Bottle Tag

Happy Wednesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Wine-Down Wednesday.  My middle of the week feature for today will hopefully offer you some inspiration and provide you with some motivation to keep you moving through your busy week.  Let's jump right in with my project share for today........

How festive is this little wine bottle tag.

It was made with the 'Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper' and a panel of Mossy Meadow card stock. 

After I adhered down the Designer Series Paper........I wrapped some 'Whisper White Baker's Twine' around the top of my tag and tied it up into a pretty bow.  I used the 'Farmhouse Christmas' set to stamp my holiday truck and used my 'Stampin' Write Markers' to color in that holiday truck.

The sentiment that was stamped on the bottom of my tag was from the 'Mistletoe Season' set ..... And I used Mossy Meadow ink to stamp that sentiment. 

So my friends.........that's all it took to create this festive holiday Wine Bottle Tag.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow with a Tag Thursday creation to share with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Christmas Cookie Straw

Merry Christmas My Blogger Friends

My blog post for today is 3-D Tuesday.  That means today I have a fun little 3-D project to share with you.  This project is SUPER FUN to create and the product is featured in both the 2018 Stampin' UP! Holiday Catalog and 2018-2019 Annual Stampin' UP! Catalog.  Let's jump right in with my project share for today.......

This sweet little Cookie Straw is that something special you can quickly make for that someone special you might still have on your Christmas gift giving list.  This little project was that perfect little gift to make and hand out to the staff at the Oro Valley Hospital who helped take care of Jack while he has been in the hospital.

I used the Cookie Straws that are from Starbucks ........ And I used the 'Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper' to create a darling little banner flag that wrapped around the Cookie Straw. 

All that was left to do was create a layered sentiment circle from the 'Farmhouse Christmas' set.  I added two 'Leaf' punched pieces behind the sentiment circle and popped it up onto my Designer Series banner flag.

The final touch was wrapping some 'Whisper White Baker's Twine' around the banner flag and this little holiday treat was done in no time flat.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Wine Down Wednesday card with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Joy To The World Upgraded Card

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Mix It UP! Monday and I have an upgraded version of the card I shared with you yesterday.  I used the exact same product that was used to create yesterday's card ....... but added a couple additional products found in the 2018 Stampin' UP! Holiday Catalog to bring this card up to the next stamping level.

Here's my Spot Light Sunday card from yesterday on the TOP...

And my Mix-It-UP! Monday upgraded card for today on the BOTTOM...

My upgraded card for today just shows how easy it is to upgrade any card with just a few additional products from Stampin' UP!  My first upgrade was adding a panel of the 'Festive farmhouse Designer Series Paper' to the front of my Whisper White base card.

Next, I created the same Designer Series Panel to the left hand edge of my card ....... But for this upgraded version, I used a panel of Mossy Meadow cardstock instead of Whisper White to position my 'Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper' onto.

One of the BIGGEST WOW FACTORS for this card was adding a single 'Galvanized Button' to the 'Whisper White Baker's Twine' before I tied it up into a pretty bow.

And a final touch was adding tree 'Silver Metallic Pearls' to the bottom section of my sentiment circle.

So there you have it friends.......

Do you have a favorite?????

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a 3-D Tuesday creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Joy To The World Card

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the 2018 Stampin' UP! Holiday Catalog and the 2018-2019 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog.   This card uses several products from both of those catalogs.  I'm thrilled with the way this card turned out ........ And want to jump right in with my card share for today................

How BEAUTIFUL is this holiday card!!!

I started this card out with a Whisper White base card ....... And added a panel of Mossy Meadow card stock to the top of that card.  Next, I added a small panel of the 'Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper' to a larger panel of Whisper White card stock and positioned that to the far left hand edge of my card. 

Before I adhered that Designer Series Panel down to my card ...... I wrapped some 'Whisper White Baker's Twine' around the top of that panel and then adhered it down to my card.

My sentiment was stamped from the 'Sincerely Santa' set with Mossy Meadow ink ........ and I stamped that onto a large Whisper White circle.

A finishing touch for this card was using some of the new 'Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint' around the Mossy Meadow panel and that gave me that little shimmer and shine I was looking for on this card.

So there you have it friends........A pretty quick and easy kind of holiday card.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share an upgraded version of this very card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

For You Card

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And I would like to share with you the project I created using the November Paper Pumpkin kit.   Here's that project.......

This alternate Paper Pumpkin card was SO MUCH FUN to create!

I used the supplies that were included in November 'To You and Yours' kit ........ And only added a Cherry Cobbler Stitched Shape Circle to this card.  I started out by layering some of the Sprigs that were included in this kit onto a Whisper White circle.  Then I adhered that completed circle to the Cherry Cobbler Stitched Shape Circle.

I stamped my sentiment from the set that was included in the kit ....... And adhered that at the bottom of my Cherry Cobbler Stitched Circle.

I finished off the pretty Sprig piece with some Gold Sequins and a pretty Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine Bow (both included in this kit) and called this Cherry Cobbler Stitched Circle FINISHED!!!

And that's all it took to create this beautiful holiday style card.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Spot Light Sunday card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!
