Monday Montage - Tiled Techniques

How can it be Monday again already??!!?? At least I stamped ahead and had a card all ready to go! Welcome back for another round of Monday Montage!

Since the 2025-2026 Stampin’ Up Catalog will be going LIVE tomorrow (05/06/25), I am sharing a few of my favorite retiring items … specifically, the Tiled Technqiues stamp set and some very pretty Moody Mauve cardstock.

I cut the front panel of this card in half, so it is only 2.75” from the top fold to the bottom edge of the front panel. That way I was able to take advance of the “medallion” I made from the Spotlight On Nature Dies and the images I stamped using Tiled Techniques.

Here’s what it looks like inside when you lift the front flap with the medallion up. Just the right amount of space for a little greeting!

I’m sooo happy that the Eyelet 3D Embossing folder is sticking around for another year. It has fast become a favorite of mine!

I shall really miss the Moody Mauve cardstock … it’s such a beautiful and rich color.

Stamps: Tiled Techniques

Paper: Basic White, Moody Mauve, Pretty in Pink, Basic Gray

Ink: Basic Gray, Moody Mauve, Pretty in Pink, Versamark

Accessories: Spotlight On Nature Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies, Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder, White Embossing Powder, Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems

My friend, Cheryl Curtis, and I have been visiting our other bestie - Bree Renwick - up in Walla Walla since last Thursday. It has been the BEST time! (Both of these ladies are also part of the Monday Montage Crew!) We ate, laughed, shopped, stamped and enjoyed our time together soooo much! Can’t wait to get together and do it again (hopefully sooner rather than later!)

All Zipped Up!

I was not gonna get this “All Zipped Up” bundle. Nope. Not even. It was a big ol’ “meh” from me.

Untiiiiiillllll I started seeing sample from the many amazing Stampin’ Up demos who HAD caved to the purchase and started to play with it (which is something that happens way more often than I would like to admit)! OF COURSE I had to add it to my cart and complete the purchase (which is something that happens way more often than I would like to admit!)!

Funny story … in the same box of goodies in which the “All Zipped Up” bundle arrived I got some very lovely packages of DSP. One of them is called “Everyday Happiness”, which I decided to use on this card. I checked the back of the package to see exactly which colors are used in it so that I could choose the colors for my card. I decided to use Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and a dash of Darling Duckling (which was NOT on the list of colors used, but I figured it worked good enough as a substitute for the Very Vanilla that WAS used). 

I went to my stash (drawers of file folders that have individual files for each color) and plucked out a piece of Pretty Peacock to use for the zipper and the sentiment. I returned to the drawer because I wanted to use some more Pretty Peacock for the base. Hmmm … brand new package of Pretty Peacock, unopened no less, and it did NOT match the scrap I had removed from this same said file 15 minutes earlier. It took me a bit of sleuthing to deduce that the color I had used was Just Jade (an In Color from a few years back) … at least I’m pretty sure that was what color I used as I had no other pieces with which to compare it! It was a pretty good match so I decided to just roll with it1

I decided at the last moment to add some little string pulls for the “hood” of this jacket. Just some Basic White Baker’s Twine that I crocheted into a little cording. Cute, eh?

So here is my All Zipped Up card using JUST JADE and NOT Pretty Peacock! I did not want to rip the whole thing apart and start over with the correct color … plain and simple!

Stamps: All Zipped Up

Paper: Basic White, Darling Duckling, Just Jade, Lost Lagoon, Everyday Happiness DSP

Ink: Lost Lagoon, Versamark

Accessories: All Zipped Up Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies, Basic White Baker’s Twine, 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls

I am currently up in Walla Walla hanging out with my two crafty besties, Bree and Cheryl! We are eating, shopping, crafting and laughing … that’s what I call a perfect match!

TGIF #522 - Product Challenge

TGIF!! This week we are playing with Alphabet Dies … specifically, I am using the Mini Alphabet Die. I have actually been playing with that a LOT lately! It. has the entire alphabet from A-Z all in one die, which makes it VERY easy! Check out the blog challenge here - TGIF Challenge Blog if you’d like to play along!

Last year my hubby and I were able to check an item off our bucket list … quite literally I have been wanting to go to Machu Picchu for as many years as I can remember! My dad always wanted to do this, but was never able to because of his poor health. As you can see from the photo on the right, I took my dad with me! I cried all the way up the mountain … crocodile tears! It was truly a magical and amazing experience!

I did one of my favorite scrapbook things on this page … I stack a photo on top of itself, but used two different sizes … a 5x7 and a 4x6. In between the layers is a thin layer of Night of Navy. Looks cool, right?

How supremely PERFECT is this DSP for this particular layout??? I mean, we were on a mountain in the clouds … AND we were in Peru! The DSP had one design with a map, and I used the part with South America in it and highlighted the spot where Machu Picchu actually is with a little heart and embellishment! The paper is called “Take to the Sky”. I think this is one of my most favorite scrapbook layouts I have ever done!

I used a little Balmy Blue ink and a sponge to brush a little color onto the bottom of the clouds (from the Adventurous Sky Dies).

Lastly, I used a white gel pen to highlight the Mini Alphabet Letters. I was VERY happy with the outcome!

I made this little tag with the “Tags to Go” Stamps and Dies. I feel like it was the perfect size to add just the right accent to the page!

Stamps: Tags to Go

Paper: Basic White, Night of Navy, Take to the Sky DSP, Country Woods DSP, Gold Foil

Ink: Balmy Blue, Versamark

Accessories: Tags to Go Dies, Mini Alphabet Dies, Adventurous Sky Dies, Linen Thread, Opal Rounds Assortment

We’d love to have you play along!! You can check us out our blog HERE and Instagram … lots of great inspiration from the rest of the TGIF Crew!

Monday Montage - Cake Celebrations

Welcome back for another fun round of beautiful projects from the Monday Montage crew! I have said it before and I will say it again … these ladies are ridiculously talented and I am grateful to learn from them and count them as my friends.

I’m trying really hard to use new (to me!) color combos … I seem to get stuck in my favorite “tried and true” combos and let a lot of other lovely cardstock in my stash go neglected! I need to work on that more! Actually, one of my favorite colors of all time in Stampin’ Up history is Early Espresso. I used to use it all the time on just about every project! It has been sadly neglected, so I decided to pair it up with another one of my newer favorites, Lemon Lolly! It’s the perfect, lovely shade of yellow!  I struggled on deciding what colors to use for the flowers and leaves … I ultimately went with Flirty Flamingo, Calypso Coral and Granny Apple Green (which I also LOVE!).

I used my Stampin’ Blends a lot on this card … just not for actual coloring! I have been doing a lot of “flicking” of color from the tips of those pens lately (you need to do it carefully so as not to break down the tips of the markers). You just take the tip of the marker and flick it from the inside of the markers cap toward the paper where you want it to land. I used the Dark Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends to add spots to the Lemon Lolly cardstock that the cake layers are made from. I also used this same technique to color the white background behind the cake - I used Pecan Pie and Calypso Coral. I love how tasty it makes the background look! If you look VERY closely you will see that I used some Wink of Stella on the chocolate ganache dripping from the tops of both tiers of cake!

One again I need to sing the praised of the Everyday Arches Dies … I shall struggle NOT to use them on every single card I make!

Stamps: Cake Celebrations

Paper: Lemon Lolly, Early Espresso, Calypso Coral, Granny Apple Green, Basic White

Ink: Calypso Coral, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green; Stampin’ Blends - Dark Lemon Lolly, Dark Calypso Coral, Light Pecan Pie

Accessories: Everyday Arches Dies, Cake Celebrations Dies, Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder, Ombe Matte Decorative Dots

Monday Montage - Fruit Salad

Happy Monday everyone! It’s time once again for the Monday Montage crew to share some of their new creations with y’all! I am constantly inspired (and often enabled) by the wonderfully-talented ladies who play Monday Montage with me every couple of weeks! I’m sure you will ALL find something you like this week!

This is a sketch I used a few months back. I needed to make a batch of cards (something I usually only do around Christmas!) and decided to use this sketch.

The front of each of these cards has been trimmed 2 1/2” from the bottom edge. I then added the layered medallion in the center using the Spotlight On Nature dies (which I love love love!)!

The Fruit Salad 6”x6” DSP is soooo much fun! I used many-several sheets of it to complete all of these cards … they are all slightly different and I love how each of them turned out! So cheerful!

Isn’t this DSP just the BEST??!!

Stamps: None

Paper:  Basic White, Basic Black, Real Red, Granny Apple Green, Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Garden Green, Fruit Salad 6”x6” DSP (Sale-a-Bration)

Ink: None

Accessories: Spotlight On Nature Dies, Friends for Life Dies, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, 1/2” White Woven Ribbon, Drury Adhesive-Backed Embellishments, Opal Rounds Embellishments, Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots, Tinsel Gems 3-Pack

Here’s a close-up of the pineapple/kiwi concoction. I absolutely loved creating all of these cards!

Monday Montage - Autumn Vibes with Changing Leaves

 

It's a BEAUTIFUL fall day outside ... the temps are in the 60's and the air is crisp and clear! The Monday Montagers are back with some gorgeous creations for you to get inspired by!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was looking around Pinterest for some inspiration (as one does!) and came across three different cards that spoke to me! This card is a definite mashup, for sure! Using dies from both Changing Leaves and Spotlight On Nature, I created a "medallion" of sorts to attach to the front "flap" of my card (I cut 2" off the bottom of the front of the card to create the flap, then added the "medallion" to it). I haven't done a card like this in AGES!

Up close you ca see that I used the same DSP on the background that I used for the sentiment just to shake things up a bit.

The Forever Plaid 3D Embossing folder is used on both the "medallion" and the inside of the card.

 

 

 

 

Peek a boo! See??? The largest circle dies from Spotlight On Nature were used as both the base of the "medallion" and the panel for the sentiment. Easy peasy!

Stamps: More Than Autumn

Paper:  Very Vanilla, Pebbled Path, Pecan Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Crumb Cake

Ink: Pebbled Path, Pecan Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Crumb Cake

Accessories: Perennial Postage Dies, More Than Autumn Dies, Blooming Pearls, Natural 3/8” Polka Dot Trim

The Las Vegas Half Marathon last weekend was great (except for when we had to run into a headwind with rain blowing in our faces!)! My knee is doing pretty well ... still being careful and waiting for it to feel back to "normal", but it's definitely doing its job! Onward and upward!

TGIF Challenge #494 - Sketch Challenge

It’s time again for the TGIF Challenge!! LOVING this sketch! It made for a quick and easy card.

I have been neglecting Boho Blue … it’s one of the 2023-2025 In Colors and has sat languishing for the past several months. I knew it was going to be PERFECT to pair with the cute little paper airplanes and clouds from the Flying By stamp set.

The So Swirly embossing folder is sooooo great for conveying some “wind” in the background! The sentiment with it’s curvy shape and dot leaders just blends right in!

I stamped some clouds on the little Perennial Postage diecuts for the paper airplanes to fly over. The background has more clouds made using Versamark and some white embossing powder.

Super cute, right??

Stamps: Flying By

Paper: Basic White, Boho Blue

Ink: Boho Blue, Brilliant Blue, Black Memento,Versamark

Accessories: Perennial Postage Dies, So Swirly Embossing Folder, Ombré Matte Decorative Dots, White Diagonal Trim, White Embossing Powder

Monday Montage #268

It’s Monday Montage time again! I was out of town a bunch in August and didn’t get to play along last time, so I’m happy to be back!

I really love it when a card comes together and is as good (or better) than you picture in your mind … which doesn’t happen to me NEARLY enough! This is one of those time, though!

I wanted to make the ducks from the Charming Duck Pond Bundle look like they were actually a piece of DSP rather than individual ducks. In the end, this is more of a 3D version of what I had envisioned but I am really happy with the result. The only thing this card takes is a little bit of patience with die cutting, as there are LOTS of ducks and NO stamping!!

I cut out a whole stack of ducks first using Gray Granite, Balmy Blue, Peach Pie and Pretty Peacock. Then I set to making all the little ducks by layering the pieces I had cut out. I made a “frame” for the ducks using the circle/lily pond die from the same die set. Don’t they look cute??

Keeping it simple for the rest of the card, I just cut out the “friend” sentiment from the Friends for Life dies and added a few “Blooming Pearls” embellishments which actually make the Pretty Peacock elements just pop off the page!

I have many little ducks left over, so I will probably be making another card with them very soon!

Stamps: NONE

Paper:  Basic White, Pretty Peacock, Peach Pie, Balmy Blue, Gray Granite, Granny Apple Green

Ink: NONE

Accessories: Charming Duck Pond Dies, Friends for Life Dies, Blooming Pearls, White 3/8” Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon

Stampin’ Fancy Friday - Celebrate!

Hey stampin’ friends! The last few weeks have been CA-RAY-ZY!!!! So happy to be back home and able to share what I created for this month’s Stampin’ Friday Challenge! This month we are evoking all things celebratory!

Nothing says “celebration” to me more than a big bunch of flowers! Birthdays, anniversaries, Mother’s/Father’s Day, Valentine’s Day … the list goes on! The flowers from the “Market Goodness” bundle are perfect! I used both the Deckled Rectangles and Circles to make the layers.

There are only two little bits of stamping on this card - the sentiment and the little “x’s” in the background! The rest of it is just cardstock and some of the lovely Market Goodness DSP (along with a little die cutting and fussy cutting!)!

Stamps: Market Goodness

Paper: Basic White, Garden Green, Market Goodness DSP

Ink: Versamark, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Garden Green, Blackberry Bliss

Accessories: Deckled Rectangle Dies, Deckled Circle Dies, Transparent Adhesive Backed Dots, White Baker’s Twine

Monday Montage #266

Whoosh! And just like THAT summer is just about over! Sheesh! So happy that I got a new box of goodies over the weekend so I could play with them for this week’s Monday Montage!

I was looking back through some old photos and came across a technique I did on a card YEARS ago … which inspired me on this card! I didn’t use the same technique, but I kinda made up a new one myself!

Stick with me here … first, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the 3D Eyelet Embossing Folder. I then inked up the Leaf Collection background stamp with Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lolly and Pumpkin Pie. Next, I placed the piece of Basic White (with the 3D Eyelet embossing) face down onto the stamp. I then carefully held the cardstock down while I used my brayer to press the cardstock into the stamp. With me so far?

Finally, after lifting up the Basic White cardstock piece I could see that the pattern from the 3D Eyelet Embossing Folder was evident on the inked background stamp, so I placed a clean piece of Basic White cardstock down onto the stamp and used the brayer again to transfer the ink. Get it?? So the pattern from the embossing folder shows up in the stamped image! Pretty cool, right??

Here is a closeup view of the effect. I really like how it turned out!

I made two pockets using the Pocket Thoughts Dies … one in Granny Apple Green, which I embossed with the 3D Eyelet Embossing Folder, and one from the stamped piece that I did earlier. I made inserts for each of the pockets as well. They can both be written on, as well as the inside of the card!

Used my favorite White 3/8” Grosgrain Frayed Ribbon to make a bow. Oh! And I also used the Keeping Tabs Bundle to create the sentiment … I love it!

Stamps: Leaf Collection, Keeping Tabs

Paper:  Basic White, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green

Ink: Granny Apple Green, Pumpkin Pie, Lemon Lolly

Accessories: 3D Eyelet Embossing Folder, Keeping Tabs Dies, Blooming Pearls, White 3/8” Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon

Stampin’ Fancy Friday - Color Challenge

 

 

 

Mooooooo! How stinkin’ caYOOT is this little cow and his little chicken friends??? This month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday Challenge is to pick a favorite color combo and incorporate it into our creations. I have ALWAYS loved the classic simplicity of black, white and red. This go-round I added a little splash of yellow to make it pop! These barnyard animals are PERFECT!!

 

 

This card was really pretty simple. I first cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 4.25” x 11”. Instead of making a “vertical” card, I turned it on its side and made a horizontal card by folding back half of the top layer (also know as a “z-fold”). I then stamped all of the images using Black Memento ink (except the sunflowers and the sentiment - I used versamark and white embossing powder for those). I used the uber-cute Eyelet 3D embossing folder to embossing the folded back portion of the front left panel and also a little strip to put behind the milk can and the chickens. 

The yellow bits on the chickens/roosters were made by stamping the images onto Lemon Lolly cardstock and THEN coloring for highlights with the Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. Easy Peasy!

Stamps: Cutest Cows

Paper: Basic White, Basic Black, Real Red, Lemon Lolly, Bubble Bath, Smoky Slate

Ink: Versamark, Black Memento; Stampin’ Blends - Daffodil Delight, Smoky Slate

Accessories: Cutest Cows Punch, Deckled Circle Dies, Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder, White Embossing Powder, Opal Rounds Assortment, Black and Very Vanilla 3/8" Large Checked Ribbon

Monday Montage #265

Hey-Howdy Friends! It’s Monday Montage time again and the team has cooked up some GOR-JUS cards for y’all to peruse … these ladies blow my mind on a regular basis!! Be sure to check out all of their projects!

I am forever thanking my stamping BFF’s for “enabling” me (and I am always happy to return the favor!). Bree (who you will see next!) is the one who finally pushed me over the edge on this bundle - Friends for Life! The stamps! The dies! Eeeeep! I went a little detail crazy on this one, as I cut the heart die from four different colors of cardstock and then put it all back together like a puzzle (with the help of some dimensionals to make the pieces stay in place!). I then broke out the coordinating colors of Stampin’ Blends to add some highlights to each of the pieces to give them more depth.

I frayed the edges of some Subtles DSP (Petal Pink) for the bottom layer. Perennial Postage Dies (LOVELOVELOVE) with a piece of Basic White cardstock and the Painted Texture Embossing Folder (also LOVELOVELOVE) created the next layer. Of course, I had to sneak in a little bit of my new favorite White 3/8” Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon … which I have been using on EVERYthing lately!

Stamps: Friends for Life

Paper:  Basic White, Pool Party, Flirty Flamingo, Petal Pink, Subtles DSP

Ink: Versamark; Stampin’ Blends - Pool Party, Flirty Flamingo, Petal Pink

Accessories: Friends for Life Dies, Perennial Postage Dies, Painted Texture Embossing Folder, 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems, White Embossing Powder, White 3/8” Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon

Under the Sea!

 

 

Bubbles, bubbles and MORE bubbles! I have been seeing bubbles when looking at the Drizzling Droplets background stamp since the moment I got it! I LOVE the versatility! So I used the Submarine Life stamp set to create this little "under the sea" scene.

I realized AFTER I fussy cut the submarine and its parts and assembled my card I discovered that there was an accompany PUNCH for this set!! DUH!!! (I have since ordered said punch and it is nestled safely in my craft room for use the next time I pull out this cute little submarine! Two shades of blue (Azure Afternoon - my FAVE! and Brilliant Blue) as well as two shades of green (Old Olive and Garden Green) helped add depth and dimension. I also used the So Swirly embossing folder on the card base to add to the "water" effect ... I seem to be using it on most of my cards lately!! 

Adding a few of the blue gems from the Opal Rounds Assortment helped the background pop even more1 Best thing?? I used one of the sketches at the bottom of page 22 in the new Annual Catalog for inspiration in creating this ... WIN/WIN!! If you haven't checked those out, you SHOULD!

Stamps: Submarine Life, Drizzling Droplets

Paper: Basic White, Azure Afternoon, Brilliant Blue, Daffodil Delight

Ink: Azure Afternoon, Old Olive, Garden Green, Pecan Pie, Versamark

Accessories: Deckled Rectangle Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies, So Swirly Embossing Folder, White 3/8" Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon, Oval Rounds Assortment

Can't wait to play with this set again ... and use the PUNCH! (Although I have to admit that I find fussy cutting kinda therapeutic!)!

Monday Montage #264

Summer is just ZIPPING along and my quest to use all of my “unused” stamp sets is moving right along! This week as I play along with the Monday Montage ladies I am showcasing the new and adorable “Tune In” Bundle of stamps and dies!

I decided to go all retro with this card since the images were already in that vein. The colors make me sooo happy!

Using offset layers I went with Pumpkin Pie and some Regals DSP cut with a couple of the Deckled Rectangles Dies. I then used the Tune In Dies (along with some fussy cutting) to add all of the fun-colored television and accent elements.

My favorite element? The White 3/8” Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon! I used my Azure Afternoon Stampin’ Write Marker to make the fun “dot” pattern. The bonus part of this was the little “quasars” that appeared that mirror some of the stamped/diecut images in this set. I just dabbed the marker to the ribbon (originally intending to make polka dots) and watched in happy amazement as the little quasars formed instead!  Yay for happy accidents!

Stamps: Tune In

Paper:  Basic White, Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, Azure Afternoon, Granny Apple Green, Regals DSP

Ink: Versamark, Basic Black and Azure Afternoon (for “Happy Birthday” and “Quasar\” images stamped inside the card; Azure Afternoon Stampin’ Write Marker

Accessories: Deckled Rectangles Dies, Tune In Dies, Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots, White Embossing Powder, White 3/8” Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon
