Inspirational Squad I believe in you dragon card

Hello everyone!  A lot has happened since the last post.  Stampin' Up! has begun a month-long sale for the 2025-2027 In Colors.  Head on over to my online store to see what products are included in the sale.  There are many you might not think of including some Paper Pumpkin refill kits!  You will find the direct link to that page here: 2025-2027 In Color Sale.  In addition, new products and additional discounts have been added to the Last Chance category in my online store.  You can find those items here: Last Chance

Now that we have all that completed, let's get on to our project for today.  I recently obtained the Inspiration Squad stamp set (of course, it's now on Last Chance at a discount for you!) and had to use it before it's no longer available.  I recently read the Empyrean book series and the little dragon in this set reminds me of the dragon from the books.  I imagined the little dragon in front of an arched stone wall surrounded by flowers.  This card is the end result and I do love how it turned out, don't you?

 To see the video tutorial on how to put this card together, fly on over to my YouTube channel.

Smoky Slate cardstock, approx 3" x 4"

I hope you have been inspired by my card today and that you will try making one for yourself to send along to someone special.  Of course, you could use any sentiment and this would become a great card for many different occasions.

Until next time; be happy, good health to you and happy stamping!

You’re the Best carved wood & watercoloring technique card

I found another technique I hadn’t heard about before and decided to give it a try.  I watched Gina K Designs show the carved wood technique and thought I really needed to give it a try with some Stampin’ Up!®️ products.  I hadn't used the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder and since it's on the last chance list at a discount, it's the perfect time to grab it if you overlooked it previously.  When I saw this, I thought it would be perfect for wood carving.  Be sure to watch the video tutorial to see all the techniques I shared on this project.  You can see it on my YouTube channel.  





Supplies and Measurements:
Spotlight on Nature stamp set 163579
She's the Greatest stamp set 165439
Something Fancy dies 160424 (last chance & discounted)
Sneak peek alert!  Gallery Blooms dies 165212 (available in the upcoming 2025-2026 Stampin' Up annual catalog.  
Crumb Cake cardstock, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored in center at 4 1/4" 
Crumb Cake cardstock, 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" & 3 5/8" x 4 7/8"
Ink pads: Pecan Pie, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Secret Sea, Old Olive, Stazon black & VersaMark watermark
2025-2027 Stampin' Write marker assortment 165292: Cloud Cover (another sneak peek releasing in May 2025)
2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls 165192 (yet another sneak peek releasing in May 2025)
Water painter or paint brush
Paper Snips 103579 for fussy cutting
Simply Scored tool 122334

I hope you will give the wood carving technique a try.  It does take a bit of practice to get the ink swiping light enough if you tend to be heavy handed like I am.  But as you can see, it's well worth the little bit of practice.  

Until next time; be happy, stay healthy and happy stamping!
