We’re so glad you joined us. Prepare to think warmer days are ahead! At least warmth is one thing I know that brings flowers and I am so ready for it.
If you haven’t seen it yet, let me give you a sneak peek of Irresistible Blooms stamp set. This will be available as part of the online exclusive releasing Coming March 1st, 2023. I’m excited because there are some things we could not preorder nor have we seen yet. It looks like we will have a cute little rhinoceros 🦏.
Okay, no more waiting. Here is my center pop put card. Using the DSP from this exclusive. It is colored in Daffodil Delight and Flirty Flamingo. In previous creating, I had stamped a bunch of flowers on vellum with white and gold embossing flower.
I used the deckled rectangles to cut the centers out of the pop out DSP and using the next smaller deckled rectangle to cut from the cardstock. Then adhered the DSP to the cardstock. Centering the rectangles creating a framed appearance. AT this point, I would center the rectangle over your card base to stamp image and or sentiment. Or you could lay down the smaller rectangle die used to cut the cardstock as a template.
BEFORE adhering the pop up center, I turned it over to lay flat on the card base to center my hello stamp because I had already made my squares and adhered to my base. It really is a simple card to make.
INSTRUCTIONS:
CARD BASE: 4-1/4” x 5-1/2”
Layer (DSP) 4” x 5-1/4”
CENTER POP UP: 4-1/4” x 9-1/2”

Burnish your score lines adhering tear n tape as shown above. Remove protective strip from tear n tape
Create the square tubes on each end
You will also place tear n tape on the outside back/bottom of tubes to adhere to the card base
these tubes will fold to flatten to place in an envelope
Layer (DSP) 3-3/4” x 4”
die cut this DSP with shape of your choice (I used Deckled Rectangle)
die cut the center of cardstock for the center pop up using the next smallest die
center and adhere the DSP to the cardstock creating a layered frame look

Welcome to this months Team Stamp It Father’s Day Blog Hop. This is the place to be for masculine card ideas. The sentiments don’t have to be related to Father’s Day as you will see in my cards today.
I chose the He’s All That stamp set which is also a part of the He’s the Man suite. I love the options provided in color and design of the designer’s series paper (DSP).
First design up today is To the man that has everything. Fairly basic card using 2 pieces of DSP measuring 1-1\4” x 2” 1 piece of cardstock 2” x 2-1/4”to stamp your sentiment. The nice thing about this, you can mix those if you want your sentiment at top, center as shown or bottom. For the strip of crushed curry it is 2” x 1/2”. I used a standard hand held paper punch to nip the two corners.
As for the second design today, it’s all about the layers and the time worn embossing folder (EF) in Crushed Curry 4” x 5-1\4”.n I forgot to list below. All three strips of DSP are 1-1\4” wide The first strip is 5”, second, 4-1/2” and the last is 4”.

Welcome to this months Team Stamp It Mother’s Day blog hop. I chose for todays card a fun fold I know as a crossover card. Though I didn’t use much, I was excited to open some new products coming out May 4th in the annual catalog.
You can get two cards from one sheet of cardstock cutting lengthwise the 8-1/2” side. You will see the three strips cross over each side. The top and bottom are attached to the left side. The center strip is attached on the right and passes under the circle dies creating a lock like action.
Using the Happy Mother’s Day from the Timeless Tulip stamp set, I used the night of navy Stampin’ write marker to color each word individually and stamp within my circle because the stamp was longer than my circle. I stamped off the flower once in melon mambo before stamping on my white circle.
MEASUREMENTS
Card base 4-1/4” x 11” score at 2-3/4” each side
White Layers on Panels 2-1/2” x 4”

Hello and welcome to this months Team Stamp It Easter Blog Hop.
It’s been a busy couple of weeks between work and my friend Niki and I have been getting ready for a vendor/craft show. Wish us luck – they seem to be hit and miss. I don’t know if we are not faced with the right shoppers or if they really are not intrigued by our creations. #cardmakingisnotforeveryone
Today I’m showing you a couple of cards and treat packets using Easter Friends cling stamp set. Also brought off the shelf is the soon to retire Timeless Tulips photopolymer stamp set which you can find here.

Welcome to the team Stamp It Valentines Day blog hop
I don’t know about you, I have a hard time using my DSP (designer series paper). More times than not, it is because I have an issue with double sided paper. Especially if it has a pretty foil on one side and if there is foil on both sides. — Eeeek!! What are these companies doing to me. Hahaha!
I want to work on using that DSP and the triple fold card is a great way to get started.
Card base in Basic Black – 11″ x 5 ½”, score and fold at 4 ¼”, 7″, and 9 ¾”
Whisper White – 2 ½″ x 5 ¼”
Designer Paper – three pieces
2 ½” x 5 ¼”
1″ x 5 ¼” outside panel
4″ x 5 ¼”
I could have stopped here maybe putting a sentiment on the white panel and it would have been a pretty yet #simplestamping card. The ideas kept flowing to step it up.
On the large panel – I stamped in the center ‘Happy Valentine’s Day’ and on the lower purple heart ’Happy to have you in my life’. This sentiment fit so perfect, it’s like the paper was created that way. Both sentiments come from the Sweet Conversations stamp set available in the Sweet Talk suite.
Next idea – what’s something fun I’ve seen for Valentine’s Day?? Coupon book meets lottery ticket. I printed four fun winning tickets but ended up using only three. I punched using the postage stamp (I forgot to include in the supply list below). I ‘laminated’ with packaging tape. I then punched again.
i wish I had silver metallic to give it more of that lottery ticket look. Adding the scratch off coating may take a couple of coats to cover the words.
To be more realistic, I carefully stamped over the top of the scratch off coating.
Because I may have gotten a little carried away with stamping and adding the scratch tickets, I didn’t like how exposed it was when you folded the card closed. I added the belly band which measures 1 1/4” x 11” and embossed with the dotty hearts folder set.
I hope you enjoyed my card today. Don’t forget to leave a comment to be entered into this month’s drawing like
I’m so glad you stopped by today. The inspiration for this months card came from a recent shopping trip to the dollar store to purchase supplies for a door hanger project. I wish I had it completed at the time this hop. Though there is die-cutting involved, it’s pretty #simplestamping.
