Kangaroo & Company for Baby Congratulations

        

  • Stampin' Up! Kangaroo & Company Stamp Set
  • Coordinating Kangaroo Dies
  • Bonus for Joining Stampin' Up! during May 2021

I needed a congratulation cards for a nephew and niece. My niece is a new mother-to-be.  I think the Kangaroo & Company Bundle was the perfect choice!  I paired it with one of the prints from the Snail Mail Designer Series Papers and it all came together in this cute card.  The Kangaroo & Company Stamp Set and the Snail Mail Designer Series Paper are from the January-June Mini Catalog, which means they are available until 30 June 2021.     




The basecard for this card is Real Red Cardstock.  Then a Basic White layer.  Next, I selected a print from the Snail mail Designer Series Paper Pack.



I used the Layering Circles Dies to create a background for my Kangaroo.  I used the Kangaroo Dies to stamp and die cut a kangaroo and baby from Cinnamon Cider Cardstock.   I stamped two Real Red hearts from the Kangaroo & Company Stamp Set onto the die cut circle



I punched a heart using the Heart Punch Pack and stamped a sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink from the retired Punch Party Host Stamp Set.  I keep certain Stamp Sets after they are retired if I find them to be particularly useful. The retired Punch Party Host Stamp Set is one of those sets. On the inside of the card, I used a sentiment from the Many Messages Stamp Set.  Because this set includes 18 sentiments and hearts and stars, and I only needed one sentiment, I used a Black Stampin' Write Marker to ink up only the one sentiment I needed and stamped it onto my card inside.  I also added a strip of Designer Series Paper to the bottom.




I popped the kangaroos and "Oh Baby" sentiment up on Dimensionals and Mini Dimensionals.  I added a Real Red bow, and my card was finished.  My only question is:  What color are kangaroos?  Are they Soft Suede? Crumb Cake, Smoky Slate? Gray Granite I really don't know!  I do know that this really, really cute stamp set is only available until 30 June 2021 from the January-June 2021 Muni Catalog.





I'm so happy with how this card turned out.  I just makes me smile.  I hope my niece and nephew love it as much as I do.   You can combine your orders from both the 2021 Mini Catalog and the 2021-2022 Annual catalog to earn Stampin' Rewards for orders of $150 USD (less shipping and tax).  Plus earn an extra $25 bonus for orders over $250 (less shipping and tax).  Read more below.   Order from my Stampin' Up! shopping site  24 X 7.

Pale Papaya Monochromatic Thank You Card using Stampin' Up! Shaded Summer Stamp Set

       

  • Stampin' Up! Shaded Summer Stamp set
  • 2021-2023 In Color 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper
  • Get $25 Extra in Stampin' Rewards

I'm having so much fun with the new Pale Papaya In Color.  My card today uses new 2021-2023 In Color 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper, the Shaded Summer Stamp Set, along with coordinating 3/8" Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon and Pale Papaya Cardstock.  I love creating monochromatic cards -- cards using a single hue of color.  I seem to have an emotional connection with Pale Papaya, one of the 5 new In Colors.  It's like a ray of sunshine that brightens my day. Its not too serious, and leaves me with a positive attitude.  Which of the new 2021-2023 In Colors cause an emotional reaction in you?   

Monochromatic floral greeting card using Stampin' Up! Shaded Summer




The basecard for this card is Pale Papaya Cardstock.  Then a Basic White layer.  Next, I selected a Pale Papaya print from the 2021-2023 In Color 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper, and then created a scalloped image layer of Basic White.

Then I used the Shaded Summer Stamp Set to stamp a Pale Papaya image on the Basic Whte Stitched Scalloped layer.  I die cut the image layer using the Scalloped Contours Dies, which incudes sever sizes of Scalloped die.  

Thank You card using Stampin' Up! Shaded Summer Stamp Set




I used the 3/8" Pale Papaya Open Weave ribbon to add a bow to the front of my card.  I stamped the Thank You Sentiment from the Shaded Summer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, and added three of the Pale Papaya Genial Gems for bling.   I love the solid sections of the florals in the Shaded Summer Stamp Set.  It takes less time to stamp than using an image that requires coloring.  When I'm rushed for time, using the Shaded Summer Stamp saves me time, yet results in a professional-looking card. 


Craft items used to create floral greeting cards and Shaded Summer Stamp Set


Of the five new In Colors, I think I've already settled on Pale Papaya as my favorite, although this card layout would look wonderfully in any of the new In Colors.  I love having all of the coordinating colored Designer Series Papers, cardstock, and embellishments in the new In Colors.  It makes creating monochromatic cards fast and easy.  You'll have a great time finding ways to use your favorite new In Color and the Shaded Summer Stamp Set.   Order from my Stampin' Up! shopping site  24 X 7.
