Nine Lives Peekaboo Card

Today I have the second version of my fun Peekaboo card – this is the cat card featuring the Nine Lives stamp set.  It’s the second card I shared in my Facebook Live this past weekend.  This first card I showed was the Happy Tails Dog version.  Be sure you watch my Facebook Live video from Sunday, March 31st and you can see how I made both of these cards.

The peekaboo cards peek through to the inside with a little surprise inside.  This one has the little mouse next to the fish bowl. I used a vase from the Varied Vases stamp set for my fish bowl.

Happy Tails Peekaboo Card

I love these fun Peekaboo cards that I created with the Happy Tails bundle from Stampin’ Up!.  It was a fun card that I designed earlier in the year for an event I went to and also used for my Stamper’s Club and one of my private classes.  I wanted to share how I made it so I did a Facebook Live this past weekend.  And an added bonus I also created a card using the Nine Lives stamp set.  If I’m making a dog card I thought I better make a cat version too.  Be sure you watch my Facebook Live video from Sunday, March 31st and you can see how I made both of these cards.

Here is a look at my Happy Tails peekaboo card.  I call it that because it has a little window in the front that peeks through to the inside.  And if you open the card you get a full view of the inside with a little hidden surprise.  My little dog has a bone hidden in the grass.

Another Piece of Cake

About a month ago I held a Birthday Bingo event and it was so much fun!  Everyone that attended made four cards featuring the Piece of Cake Bundle and the Happiness Blooms Designer Series Paper.  My last post was one of the cards and today I’m sharing another one. 

UPDATED: You can view my April 15, 2019 FB live video HERE.  I show you how to make this card plus three more.

I love the new Dot to Dot Textured Impressions Embossing Folder that is part of the Happiness Blooms Suite.  It can add a fun background to your cards.  All the cards we made used the Night of Navy classic ink.  And for this one I used the Calypso Coral Stampin’ Write Marker to color in the dripping frosting on the cake.

Supply List

  • #148610 Piece of Cake stamp set
  • #148525 Cake Builder punch
  • #150579 Piece of Cake Bundle 10% savings
  • #148795 Happiness Blooms Designer Series Paper
  • #148802 Happiness Blooms Cardstock Pack
  • #148805 Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots
  • #100730 Whisper White Cardstock
  • #147110 Night of Navy Classic Stampin’ Pad
  • #104430 Stampin’ Dimensionals
  • #148533 Dot to Dot Embossing Folder
  • #147156 Subtles Stampin’ Write Markers (Calypso Coral)
  • #143263 Big Shot Die Cutting Machine

On the inside of the card I added a Whisper White layer and a strip of the Designer Series paper that was on the front of the card. 

This is the final week of Sale-a-Bration.  Be sure to place your orders for Free Sale-A-Bration products before time runs out!

Let’s Eat Cake

It’s time for cake!  The Cake Builder Punch is back in stock and you can order it now!  That means the Piece of Cake Bundle is also available to order.  Did you know that when you order as a bundle it saves you 10%?  And we only have bundles when the items are introduced in the catalog.  Meaning that once this catalog ends even if the products carry over (and the punch is for sure) they won’t be a bundle any more.  So save your money now and order the bundle.

UPDATED: You can view my April 15, 2019 FB live video HERE.  I show you how to make this card plus three more.

I used the Piece of Cake Bundle and the Happiness Blooms Designer Series Paper for my Bingo event at the end of February.  It was a birthday theme and we made some fun cards.  This one is Lovely Lipstick, Night of Navy and Whisper White.  I randomly stamped the Happy Birthday all over the white panel.  What I do is take the stamp – ink it – stamp, stamp, stamp – and then repeat.  That gives you the varying degrees of color in the background. 

Supply List

  • #148610 Piece of Cake stamp set
  • #148525 Cake Builder punch
  • #150579 Piece of Cake Bundle 10% savings
  • #148795 Happiness Blooms Designer Series Paper
  • #148802 Happiness Blooms Cardstock Pack
  • #148805 Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots
  • #100730 Whisper White Cardstock
  • #147110 Night of Navy Classic Stampin’ Pad
  • #132178 Silver Foil Sheets
  • #146336 Medium Night of Navy Baker’s Twine
  • #141897 Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
  • #104430 Stampin’ Dimensionals

The inside is finished to match with a coordinating strip of the Designer Series paper.  The cake plate on the front is punched from the Silver Foil. 

There is a little bit of Wink of Stella on the candle flames but I don’t think you can really see it in the photo.

Love You February 2019 Scrapbook layout

Let’s take a look at the scrapbook layout I created for February.  It’s a love, heart themed page but doesn’t actually say Valentine’s Day so it could be used for any number of things.  My monthly stamp club created the left page and then I added the right page and showed them both in my Facebook Live. Be sure you watch my Facebook Live video from Sunday, March 10th and you can see both of these pages plus some bonus tags. 

Watch the video here – Facebook Live March 10th

The Meant To Be Bundle and All My Love Designer Series Paper were perfect for a February scrapbook page.  I used strips of paper in varying widths and lengths.  This is a perfect way to use up scraps left from other projects.  The hearts stamped in the background are 3 different ones from the Meant to Be stamp set and I mounted all three on one block so they could be inked and stamped together. 

Supply List

  • #147003 Neutrals 12×12 Card stock
  • #100730 Whisper White Card stock
  • #46970 Lovely Lipstick Card stock
  • #150587 Meant to Be Bundle (Meant to Be stamp set + Be Mine Stitched Framelits)
  • #148576 All My Love Designer Series Paper
  • #148583 Heart Epoxy Droplets
  • #147116 Crumb Cake classic ink
  • #143263 Big Shot Die Cutting Machine
  • #148534 Well Written Framelits Dies

The Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies have so many different elements and they even fit perfectly on some of the hearts on the Designer Series paper.  You also have the option to add stitching on some of the solid hearts with the stitching dies. 

I scattered the little hearts from the die cut and the epoxy hearts in with the background stamping on each page.

With some of my left over scrap pieces I also made tags.  These go on the orders that customers pick up from my house.

Hop on outta here

I have some more updates about Sale-A-Bration products.  A couple of things have hopped right outta here and others are moving fast.  So if you have something you want you better hop on over to my online store and order it right now! 

The Organdy Ribbon that was back at the beginning of the week sold out about a day later – I told you to hurry.  And the Hop Around Framelits that coordinate with the So Hoppy Together stamp set – well they hopped right on out of here too!  So the moral of the story is don’t wait order today.  Rumor has it that the next thing that will sell out is the Call Me Cupcake Framelits that go with the Hello Cupcake Sale-A-Bration stamp set. 

I had this cute Hoppy Birthday card to share with you today.  It will be an option in my Quick & Cute cards class at the end of the month. 

I used the dies on the frog and the lily pad but if you have decent fussy cutting skills you can cut out that frog with paper snips.  And to make a lily pad use a skinny oval shape and cut a notch out of one end.  The little flies I stamped directly on the card and added a little “movement” with my black marker.  Birthday comes from the new More Than Words stamp set. 

Supply List

  • #149725 So Hoppy Together stamp set (SAB Free with $50 order)
  • #150073 Hop Around Framelits Dies (sadly they have sold out)
  • #150069 More Than Words stamp set
  • #140272 Thick Whisper White Card Stock
  • #121045 Basic Black Card Stock
