It's time for another Canada Ink's Up!s Blog Hop. I wanted to showcase some of the new 2021-2023 In-Colors from Stampin' Up!

The NEW colours are: Polished Pink, Pale Papaya, Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent and Fresh Freesia. 

Todays card uses the Fresh Freesia Card Stock and Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon, two of the new In-Colors!

I started with a Thick Basic White card base of 4 1/4" x 11" and I scored it at 5 1/2".

I die cut Fresh Freesia rectangle using the Scalloped Contours Dies, attach this to the card base. 

Cut a Basic White Scalloped Contours Die, the next size down. Attach using Dimensionals. 

Using Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper, die cut the next size down of the Scalloped Contours. Emboss this layer using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. Attach it to the Basic White layer using Multi-purpose Glue. 

Die cut from basic White C/S a Scalloped Contours label. Stamp a sentiment from Color And Contour Stamp Set using Evening Evergreen Classic Ink. Attach to the card front using Dimensionals.

Big Thanks!

 Big Thanks!

Little card, big thanks! What a great sentiment stamp! 

This is my card for the challenge over at

Freshly Made Sketches. 

I used the new 2021-2023 In-Color Pale Papaya Card Stock and Classic Ink. The stamp set I used, Flowers Of Friendship Bundle, is also new. the set comes with a punch for quick and easy cards!

I started with a 4 1/4" x 11" piece of Pale Papaya Card Stock and I scored it at 5 1/2".

I stamped the flowers using Pale Papaya Ink 2x onto the card front. I then embossed the card front using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder.

Then I cut a 1 1/2" x 3 3/4" piece of Basic White Card Stock and I stamped the sentiment from the Flowers Of Friendship Stamp Set using Memento Black Ink. Using the Banner Triple Punch, banner cut the end.

Cut a 1 3/4" x 3 1/2" piece of Pattern Party Designer Series Paper from the Host Rewards pack. Banner punch the end. This package of DSP is an excellent value!! You can earn it for free with a $240.00 order. Contact me for more details. Attach the Basic White layer to the DSP layer. Adhere them to the card front using a Dimensional. 

Stamp some flowers and leaves onto Basic White Card Stock using the Flowers Of Friendship Stamp and Memento Black Ink. Colour using Stampin' Blends. Punch out using the coordinating flower punch. Attach the flowers to the tag using a Dimensional, glue the leaves in behind the flowers. Add a Matte Black Dot to the center of the flower. 

Finish off the card by adding a double Black Bakers Twine bow from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack. 

Thanks for stopping by today! 

Happy Stamping and Creating,

Elegance in Polished Pink

 Elegance In Polished Pink

Oh the new 2021-2023 In-Color Polished Pink is simply stunning!!! I designed this card for the challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches. 

Be sure to check out all the other participants.

This is a super simple card. I started with a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" card base scored at 4 1/4". I embossed the card front using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. I cut a piece of Basic Black Card Stock to 2" x 2 1/2" and a piece of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper to 2 3/8" x 1 7/8". Glue these two pieces together and then emboss them using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. Punch out a large Basic Black C/S dragonfly using the Dragonflies Punch. Emboss it using the Tasteful Textiles EF. Attach the rectangle panel and the dragon fly to the card front using Dimensionals. Stamp a sentiment from Many Messages in VersaMark Ink and emboss using Basic Black Embossing Powder. Die cut out and attach to the card front using Dimensionals. 

*Tip: I stamped the complete stamp (it has many sentiments all in one large stamp) in VersaMark and Emboss them all, die cut them all out and then store the leftovers for future cards! It's nice to have so many sentiments all ready to go!

I finished up the card with a row of Rhinestones on the dragon fly.
