Hello, Irreristible

 Hello, my stamping friend!

Yesterday Stampin Up! lunched brand new Online Exclusive products.  Hello, Irresistible suite of products is one of them. I love the stamp set and dies! The paper is amazing too and so easy to create with.

Here is the card I created while playing with this suite.

Measurements: 

  • Petal Pink CS: 5 ½ x 8 ½”; 
  •  Basic White CS: 4 x 5 ¼”; 
  • DSP: 3 7/8 x 3 7/8”; 1 ¼ x 3 7/8”; piece with flowers and leaves 

How To:

  1. Randomly stamp a splatter image around the edges of the card front in petal pink ink. 
  2. Die cut the center of the DSP square with circle die.
  3. Adhere die cut DSP to the top of the basic white leaving equal borders on all 3 sides. Adhere other DSP strip below. 
  4. Stamp a sentiment in evening evergreen ink inside the circle. 
  5. Wrap about 5 ½” of the ribbon below the circle (where both DSP meet) securing it on the back. Add entire piece with dimensionals to the card front. 
  6. Die cut a flower and set of leaves from the DSP. Add them with dimensionals to the bottom of the circle.
  7. Tie a bow and add to the flower with a glue dot. 
  8. Add several rhinestones. 

 I am so excited to announce next Fun Creations Club!

The March 2023 kit features the brand new suite of products - Hello, Irresistible. Artistic and colorful designs with a touch of elegance, that’s what the Hello, Irresistible Suite Collection is all about!

Cards from strips of DSP

 Hello, my stamping friend!

Do you save all your scraps of the DSP or regular cardstock? We all do:) 

Today a have 2 card layouts that show how to use your scraps! We made those cards last week during my Facebook live.

This is my original attempt:

Card 1 features a “ribbon” technique. I used 1/2 strips of Favored Flowers DSP. Love how it turned out:
For second card I glued different strips of dsp and card stock to basic white to create my own DSP

Card 1 - ribbon technique

  • Card base: 5 1/2 x 8 1/2”;
  • Basic white 2 1/2 x 5 1/2; score at every 1” on long side
  • Gold foil (2) 1/2 x 5 1/2

Card 2:

  • Card base: 5 1/2 x 8 1/2”;
  • Basic white: (2) 4 x 5 1/4". Use one to glue the strips then trim to 3 7/8 x 5 1/8
  • DSP and cardstock strips: 1/2" and 3/4" wide 

Watch the video how to make the cards:

 Use other color combo for completely different look:


I used 1/2" strips of Gold foil and another DSP pattern on this card:

I used beautiful Favored Flowers DSP. It is FREE with your order ($50+) by February 28th. It is my favorite! Stock up on it today!

 Hello, my stamping friend.

I have very fun project to share with you. It is another funky fold card. I saw this fold recently online and recreated it during Wednesday Facebook Live (watch here):

It has such a dimension with a pop-up frame. But folds flat for mailing.

  • DSP: 4 x 5 1/4"; 1 7/8 x 6":
  • Basic White (inside the frame): 2 3/4 x 3 1/2";

How To:

  • Using stitched rectangle dies 2 and 6 - die cut a card stock. Using dies 3 and 5 die cut the DSP. 
  • Adhere large piece of the DSP to card front and another one to cut card stock.
  • For tubes - score DSP every 3/8" on 1 7/8 side. Cut to two 1 7/8 x 3" pieces. Adhere to create a tube. Adhere tubes inside the opening
  • Stamp a sentiment on basic white, adhere between tubes.
  • Adhere a frame to tubes

Watch the video on YouTube.
