Stampin' Up! Carousel Birthday stamp set

  • Carousel Birthday stamp set card
  • Good-bye free Sale-A-Bration gifts -- final day to order
  • April 2 class to make Bunny Buddies and Cards Class 

Carousel stamp set


Here's another stamp set from the Occasions catalog, called Carousel Birthday, that I'm finally getting to play with.   The matching DSP is from a 6 X 6" paper stack called Cupcakes & Carousels Designer Series Paper Stack.   







I'm so happy with the way this stunning card turned out.  I cut a sheet of the 6 X 6 DSP paper stack to 3 X 6 and then trimmed it to 3 x 5-1/4" I stamped the carousel horse onto a Whisper White circle in Night of Navy.  The circle is backed with one of the new Lace Doilies, also in the  Occasions catalog.      






I stamped another carousel image and fussy cut it to use it as a cover over the final stamped image.  I then used a dauber to create a Pool Party shadow /background around the carousel horse.  I used color pencils to color the carousel horse and pole.  I added the 3/8" Pool Party ribbon before affixing the top layers to the thick Whisper White base card.    
  




I used the 'thinking of you' sentiment from the Window Shopping set, and highlighted the card with Pool Party enamels from the Subtles enamels pack.  The colors on this card make my eyes happy. 



Recipe:

Stamp:  Carousel Birthday, Window Shopping (sentiment)
Ink:  Pool Party, Night of Navy
Paper: Whisper White (thick), Pool Party, Cupcakes and Carousels Designer Series Paper Stack.
Accessories:   Subtles Enamels, Lace Doilies, 3/8" Pool Party Stitched Satin Ribbon, Sponge Dauber, Stitched Shapes Framelit dies, Layering Oval Framelits, Big Shot, Big Shot Cutting Pads, Stampin' Scrub, Stampin' Mist, Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Stampin' Up! Love You Lots

  • Love You Lots
  • 1 day remain to earn free Sale-A-Bration gifts
  • Register now for the Bunny Buddies and Cards Class 

Love you Lots hostess stamp set


Here's a stamp set and paper I haven't used in a while.  The stamp set is a hostess set from the main catalog called Lots of Love.  The DSP is another paper from the Affectionately Yours, which I used yesterday as well.   







The base card is Crumb Cake cardstock, and the layer under the DSP is Daffodil Delight, one of the colors in the DSP.  The image is stamped in Cucumber Crush, one of my favorite colors that will retire in June.    






The butterfly and "love" are both from the Sunshine Wishes Thinlit set, and the scalloped layer was created with the Layering Ovals Framelit.    
  




I love the bright colors in this designer paper, and the goofy frog sends a fun message to someone you care about. 



Recipe:

Stamp:  Love you Lots
Ink:  Cucumber Crush
Paper: Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Watermelon Wonder, Affectionately Yours Specialty Designer Series Papers.
Accessories:   Sunshine Wishes Thinlit Set, Stitched Shapes Framelit dies, Layering Oval Framelits, Big Shot, Big Shot Cutting Pads, Stampin' Scrub, Stampin' Mist, Multipurpose Liquid Glue
