Stampin Up! Convention Swaps

My daughter and I recently returned from Long Beach, California where Stampin' Up! held their annual convention called OnStage.

During OnStage we find out what's happening in the world of Stampin' Up! What's new, what's changing along with opportunities to see old friends and make new friends

One of the things we do at OnStage is swap cards that we have made with other attendees for cards that they have made.

These are some of the cards that we took with us to this years OnStage to swap with fellow demonstrators.

The cards on this post were all made using the Homemade Sweetness Suite.

The blueberries were colored using Blueberry Bushel and Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends.

The jar was wrapped with White Bakers Twine.

Darling Duckling 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls were used for the little white flower centers.

The blueberries on the inside of the card were stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then Blueberry Bushel ink was added to the image using a Blending Brush.

The Filled with Sweetness Bundle, which is part of the Homemade Sweetness suite, includes a die that allows you to cut out a jar shaped image that can be used as a stand-alone card, as I have done with the card above, or it can be cut at the fold and used as an image on the card, like was done on the other two cards on this post.

Linen Thread was wrapped around the lid of this jelly jar.

Strawberry Slush along with Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends were used to color the Strawberries.

Painted Illusions Designer Series Paper was used for the top panel on this card.

The strawberry on the inside of the card was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then Strawberry Slush ink was added to the stamped image using a Blending Brush.

Hope you enjoyed my cards for today!

Easter Theme Blog Hop

Welcome to the Team Stamp It Groups Easter Theme Blog Hop!

Whether you hopped onto my blog from one of my teammates or started with my blog, I'm awfully glad you "hopped" by.

This card was made from a pattern found on Pinterest, unfortunately I was not able to identify the person who made the pattern to give them credit.

Basic White cardstock was used for the card base and measures 11" x 4", scored at 5 1/2"

The Highland Heather cardstock was cut 5 1/4" x 5 1/4", scored at 1 1/4", 2", 3 1/4" and 4". Fold on the score lines to make a square in the center of the panel. This square will become the cross base. Adhere the first 1 1/4" and the last 4" section of this panel to the card base.

For the next Basic White layer, you will need to cut three at 1 1/8" x 5 1/8". Adhere these panels to the card front and the front of what will become the cross base.

Cut two Basic White cardstock panels at 5/8" x 5 1/8". Adhere these to what will become the sides of the cross base.

Using Fresh Freesia cardstock cut two panels 1" x 5" and adhere the panels one on each side of the cross.

For this card, I used the Lovely and Beautiful Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) and cut one panel 1" x 5" and two panels 1/2" x 5".

Adhere the 1" x 5" DSP panel to the front of the cross base.

Adhere the two 1/2" x 5" panels, one on each side of the cross base.

To make the cross bar, cut one Highland Heather cardstock panel 1 1/4" x 3 1/8". Cut one Basic White cardstock panel 1 1/8" x 3" and adhere onto the Highland Heather 1 1/4" x 3 1/8" panel. Lastly, cut one Lovely and Beautiful Specialty DSP panel 1" x 2 7/8" panel and adhere this panel onto the top of the Basic White panel.

Once the cross bar has been assembled, adhere it onto the cross base about 1" down from the top of the cross base and centered horizontally.

The wreath on the center of the cross is from the Easter Time Mix and Match Ephemera Pack.

The butterflies and the bird on a flower branch are from Softest Spring Mix and Match Puffy Stickers. Unfortunately, it appears the Softest Spring Mix and Match Puffy Stickers are no longer available.

The sentiment is from the Easter Basket stamp set and has been stamped in Fresh Freesia ink.

Purple Fine Shimmer Gems were added for accent.

This is what the completed card looks like from the top down.

I hope you enjoyed my card for today!
