One Day only Free Stampin' Up! Shipping plus Dressed To Impress Card idea

         

  • Dressed To Impress Stamp Set and All Dressed Up Coordinating Dies
  • Free Shipping - one day only - 24 June 2021
  • Expressions in Color Paper Pumpkin Kit Unboxing Video
I'm having so much fun today.  First, creating this spunky card.  And then, planning my order for 24 June when Stampin' Up! offers free shipping!.  Yes!  One day only, you can qualify for free shipping with a $50 (Less tax or coupons) order.  

My card uses the always popular Dressed to Impress Stamp Set, with its ladylike, refined elements.  I paired this with the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper for a truly soft, delicate look.  The frilly, scalloped , stitched rectangle from the Scalloped Contours Dies continued the overall refined theme.  I used several colors of Stampin' Pens to color the feminine die cuts. and the roses stamped on the Scalloped  layer.  When I see this card it makes me think of my wonderfully graceful sisters and my sisters-in-law.

The basecard for this card is Misty Moonlight Cardstock.  Then a layer of of Hand-Penned 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper.  Then a scalloped rectangle of Basic White Cardstock die cut using the Scalloped Contours Dies.

I  used more Basic White Cardstock, and Stamped images from the Dressed To Impress Stamp Set, colored them with Stampin' Blends and die cut them using the coordinating All Dressed Up Dies.  

To create the double high heels, I stamped one of the high heels onto a sticky note and fussy cut it.  Then I stamped one of the high heels onto Basic White cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I covered it with the sticky note I cut out earlier to mask it as I stamped a second high heel slightly offset from the first high heel.  After coloring them with Pale Papaya Blends, I fussy cut the pair of high heels out by hand. The All Dressed Up Dies includes a die to cut a single high heel shoe, which I couldn't used after stamping them as a pair.  Alternatively, I could have die cut two high heels separately and then glued them together, but I was concerned with adding too much bulk to the card.  My method kept all of the die cut images on the banner, at the same height .

I glued the die cut elements to a 1" X 5-1/4"" strip of Pale Papaya Cardstock, stamped with a sentiment on the right hand end using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I added a few Pale Papaya genial Gems and stamped more floral images onto the scalloped layer. 

What a fun card to have on hand for Birthdays, or to let someone special know you're thinking of them.  You can order any of these items by clicking elements below. Order these items from my Stampin' Up! shopping site  24 X 7.

Happy Father's Day card using A Good Man Stamp Set

        

  • A good Man Stamp Set
  • Current Promotions
I don't do many masculine cards but today, this card just kind of made itself.  I grabbed a couple of stamp sets and Sahara Sand cardstock,.  I stamped a couple of images, and a sentiment, and the card came together in mere moments.  I also pulled my Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder to give the scene a woodlands setting.  I used A Good Man Stamp Set, and I also used Seaside View Stamp Set, which recently retired, but I decided to keep it as it works so well with several other sets. It creates the perfect setting for the relaxing, male image I wanted to use.  I'm using this as a Father's Day Card.

The basecard for this card is Sahara Sand Cardstock.  Then a layer of Sahara Sand dry embossed with the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing Folder.  The image layer is Basic White and stamped with the Seaside View Stamp Set.

I  stamped the guy-in-a-chair image from A Good Man Stamp Set onto a piece of Basic white Cardstock using Sahara Sand ink, and fussy cut it before popping it up on Dimensionals.  The sentiments is also from A Good Man stamp Set, and it is stamped in Sahara Sand ink on Basic White and die cut using the smallest circles in the Stitched Shapes Dies.  I know.  This set of dies is retired.  However, this is one of my go-to die sets, as it includes circle, ovals and squares -- all in one set. It is such a fabulous set of dies that I don't plan to stop using.  I added one of the Elegant Faceted Gems to the sentiment to give it a little bling.
