Friendships Sweetest Thoughts is a perfect springtime stamp set. I love it and will miss it at the end of next month. Today I have paired it with the Fresh Floral DSP that includes the current In Color Family of colors.
Friendships Sweetest Thoughts, 145826
I believe the DSP pairs perfectly with the little flower cart. I have mixed my reds in this. I used Berry Burst Card stock and DSP, Rich Razzleberry Stampin’ Blend, and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend for the bird. Who knew it would all mesh pretty well???
The cart is stamped and colored with the Stampin’ Blends and then cut out using the Layering Ovals Framelits. Instead of placing it under an oval cut into the DSP, I decided just to layer it on top. Without a background layer, the single layer lays flat enough that it appears to be underneath. A win for quick and not having to measure to find the center!
Thank you for stopping by today! I have included all of the products used at the bottom of the page. Remember the Retiring Lists. The stamp set and DSP are on there.
Another Paper Pumpkin Special: The March PP was so popular due to the special gift that it sold out. So Stampin’ Up! has offered a great deal to replace that. New Subscribers who sign up before April 10, will receive April and May for half price. So 2 months for the price of 1. A great deal. Use my link HERE, and enter the code: SAVEFIFTY0418
It is still a great time to become a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator. I would love to have you join my team. A great perk for demonstrators this time of year is getting to see the new catalog first. Then we get to order and play with the new products a month early. For me, that is one of the best parts of being a SU Demonstrator. Of course, the discount helps! If you are interested, please contact me and let’s talk.
Another retiring set, that I have not totally decided will actually leave my house, is Layering Love. I really LOVE the sentiments of this stamp set. Today I have paired it for a little more masculine version. A favorite DSP has become the True Gentleman DSP from the Occasions Catalog. I think Stampin’ Up! really nailed it on the patterns in this pack of paper.

I went for non-Spring colors and added some different textures. This is quite a different card for me of late. I am happy with the results though. And again, there is quite a lot of retiring product here. The stamp set and DSP, as I mentioned above, but also the Sweet And Sassy Framelits!!! ( I cannot believe it!), the Enamel Shapes, and the Tutti-Fruitti Washi tape. Wow! And they look great together.
I hope you like my “a little bit different” card. I appreciate you stopping by today. All of the supplies I used are listed at the bottom of the page. Remember that the retiring products are only “While Supplies Last” . If you hesitate too long you may miss out on a favorite.

As I am pulling the retiring stamp sets, I have fond memories of so many. So as I said on Monday, I am going to showcase a few of my favorites. Today and tomorrow I will be using the same stamp set . It is a different set from earlier in the week, but these two cards are similar in layers and shape. This set is perfect for the quick Random Act of Kindness card or just a cute card.

A few layers of beautiful card stock and a little Stampin’ Blends, and finished! What a deal!! I love the simplicity but shine this has. I layered Rich Razzleberry card stock with Gold Foil card stock. I added a layer of the Painted With Love DSP from the Occasions Catalog. The heart in the light bulb mimics the hearts on the DSP. The reflection you see in the photo is from the gold foil hearts. It is very hard to photograph. However, it is quick and easy. You could make quite a few of these in just a short time.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. Tomorrow’s card will be using this same stamp set. I hope you will come back to check it out. The supplies I used are listed at the bottom of the page. clicking on any item will take you directly to my online store.

Card base of Rich Razzleberry is 8 X 4, folded in half

For the second card using the You’ve Got This stamp set, I used almost the same products plus some DSP. I added the Delightful Daisy DSP, another favorite. It works perfectly with both the Peekaboo Peach, and Night of Navy (yesterday was Dapper Denim).
You’ve Got This, 139575
When I use DSP, I like to put a layer between it and the base layer. I don’t want it to fade into the base. Instead of Dapper Denim, I went with Night of Navy due to the little pieces of it in the floral DSP. Other than that, I used the same inks and ribbon. I left off the glitter dots from yesterday. I think the bow is more than enough for the decoration. As I said yesterday, this ribbon is a dream to work with. My bling for this card is that I went over the entire flower with Clear Wink of Stella. In person it adds quite a bit of shimmer.
I hope you like today’s card. It has more layers and a bit different layout. I hope I have I have given you pause in considering some of these retiring items. Please place your orders soon to insure that you get the items you want. You can click on any of the items and be taken directly to my online store, or click on the Shop button at the top of the page.

It is the time of year where we are saying goodbye to some of the most loved stamp sets and accessories. We all have our favorites, but we must make room for new products. So the next couple of weeks I am going to be sharing some of my favorites that we are saying goodbye to. This week I have taken two stamps sets and made two cards with each. One is a pretty quick and simple. The second is just a little “more” . Not over the top just a little something extra. Today I am starting this journey with the You’ve Got This stamp set.
You’ve Got This, 139575
I apologize for the photography! This looks a bit washed out here. It really is quite bright.
I used the retiring Peekaboo Peach as the base with Dapper Denim as the coordinating color. The ribbon is actually Night of Navy Crinkled Seam Binding , another retiring product that I love. Just to give it a little sparkle, I added a couple of the Glitter Enamel Dots.
I hope you will stop back by tomorrow to see the same colors and stamp set with just a little bit more. The supply list is at the bottom of the page.

I have somewhat of a Funky Fold in my card today. I received a similar card at the swap a couple of weeks ago and loved that it was different. I recreated it, but instead of folding, I cut away to make the same front result. And I changed the front decorations as well. I had in my mind a gentleman card with a tie. However, it ended up more like a female card with a scarf! I just never know what my end result will be! 🙂
Lovely Wishes, 145924
I will begin with the “V”. The card I received was 4 1/4 X 11, scored equally and then each end was cut so that when they overlapped the front it formed this V. I decided it would be easier to do a regular fold from that beginning cut, but cut out the V section. My method saves some cutaway card stock but requires a little measuring. So the other may be simpler???
I used the Simple Stripes Embossing Folder and ran it through the Big Shot once in each direction to make the plaid design on the front section. I then used Tear & Tape to secure the bottom and the side. I also used the Tear & Tape to adhere the ribbon around the neck of my “sweater”.
I hope you like my funky fold card. It is a good design for pull out invitations or even adding a gift card on the bottom portion of the pull out card.
