This Little Piggy...what a fun stamp set from Stampin' Up!

  • Little Piggies Having Fun
  • $5 Paper Pumpkin Kit special ends in hours
  • Final Day to earn extra $35 in Stampin' Rewards!

Two Little Piggies


This set has 4 different piggy images, other fun elements such as kisses and clouds, and plenty of sentiments.  This set just makes me smile whenever I look at these little piggies, and I hope the cards I send using this set do the same for the person who receives it.   For today's card, I stamped the two pigs out of Powder Pink with Night of Navy ink and fussy cut the pigs to mount on my card.  The pigs both have sentiments, which I covered with Post It notes and just stamped the pig.  

      



I then covered the piggy image, and stamped the sentiment on Whisper White cardstock and die cut it with the Stitched Shapes and then layered it in a matt cut with the Layering Ovals Thinlits.   The piggy images and the sentiment are popped up on dimensionals and mini dimensionals.  

The basecard is Thick Whisper White.  Then there is Night of Navy layer and a layer of Powder Pink Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper.  The image block is matted in Night of Navy and Whisper White.  








The ribbon is the Navy of Night 1/2" Gingham Ribbon, one of the new ribbons in this year's annual catalog.  I used a Powder Pink Write Marker to add shading to the piggy images.  I used a Daffodil Delight water color pencil to color the head of the flower.

Tiptoe Through the Tulips with Tranquil Tulips Set

  • Berry Burst Tulips
  • $5 24-hour Paper Pumpkin Kit special
  • Final 2 Days to earn extra $35 in Stampin' Rewards!

Tranquil Tulips Set


I have a new favorite stamp set.  I LOVE this new two step-stamp called Tranquil Tulips.   Some stamp sets are a struggle to work with to get everything just right.  Not this set.  It was easy, fun and I love, love, love the card I created with this set!  I just couldn't stop stamping when I made this card.  I made a another, and another and then I stamped envelopes to match.  It was a gooood stampin' day.   

      



Although this is a two step stamp, unlike many of our other two - step and three-step stamp sets, you can use the same ink color for both steps.  The stamp creates the lighter and darker shade...no need to pull out a second color or stamp off to create the lighter color.  I'm in love with this new stamp!  The tulip heads are stamped in Berry Burst and the stems are stamped in Old Olive, and I loved that one of the stem stamps includes the three stems as a single stamp, which reduces stamping time.  The set also includes individual stems giving you lots of choices for using this set.  








I used Old Olive for my base card, then a background layer of Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper, and the image block is Whisper White.  

The sentiment is from the Climbing Orchid set, and it is stamped in Berry Burst ink.  

The ribbon is 3/8" Old Olive mini Chevron Ribbon.  I had 9-1/2 " of ribbon left on the end of a spool and I was amazed that I was able to embellish two cards with that small amount of ribbon.  

This Tranquil Tulips set is a hostess set, which means it can only be purchased with a $150 order -- well worth it to be able to create these wonderful tulips.




Recipe for card:


Stamps: Tranquil Tulips
Ink:  Berry Burst, Old Olive
Paper: Old Olive, Whisper White, Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper 
Accessories:  3/8" Old Olive Mini Chevron Ribbon, Multipurpose Glue, Dimensionals
