Baking Makes Life Sweeter

 I was sad that Stampin Up did not carry over the Perfect Mix stamp set in the new 2017-2018 annual catalog.  I paired the stamp set with the now retired  Succulent Garden DSP to create a retro and fun card for a baker!

Oh So Succulent

 Today’s card is a CASE (Copy and Steal Everything) card that I saw on social media.  The card uses all the now retired Stampin Up products from the So Succulent Suite.  The background DSP is from the Succulent Garden DSP collection. The pot was cut using the Layering Circle  Framelits #141705.  The inner circle of dirt was stamped using an image from the High Tide #141705 stamp set. The succulent plants were cut using the Succulent Framelits, then stamped the tips using the image from the Oh So Succulent stamp set. I inked the edges and layered them to make the perfect succulent.

I have had a lot of fun playing with the Perfect Mix stamp set and paring it with the Succulent Garden DSP (No longer available).  Both items were in the Stampin Up Occasions Catalog and on the retirement list but it looks as if the Succulent Garden DSP has sold out. The background DSP is from the Succulent Garden DSP collection and then I created a strip of crumb cake cardstock and randomly stamped the images from the stamp set and then stamped the mixing bowl and spoon, colored them and hand cut it out and placed it on the card to make a geat birthday card.

The Succulent Garden DSP was on the Retirement List along with  the Perfect Mix stamp set ad other ith a lot of other great products are on the Stampin Up Retirement List and are discounted.  The items on the Retirement List are only available while supplies last or May 31st which ever comes first; so be sure to check it out and order sooner than later!

Retro Kitchen Tools

There could be muffin sweeter than this egg-stra grate mix of kitchen utensil stamps all on 1 card.  Today’s post combines most of the images from the Perfect Mix #142933 stamp set from Stampin Up.  I colored the images with Stampin Write Markers to coordinate with the striped paper from the Succulent Garden DSP #142778.

The Succulent Garden and the Perfect Mix stamp set along with a lot of other great products are on the Stampin Up Retirement List and are discounted.  The items on the Retirement List are only available while supplies last or May 31st which ever comes first; so be sure to check it out and order sooner than later!

Succulent Easter

 Happy Easter! Today’s post is a super sweet Easter card featuring the Succulent Garden DSP # 142778 and the adorable Basket Bunch Bundle #144731 that includes the Basket Bundle stamp set and the coordinating Basket Builder Framelits from the Stampin Up Occasions catalog. The background was textured with the Petal Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder #141493 and then a strip of retired glimmer cardstock and Succulent Garden DSP were Layered to the background. The sweet little bunnies were added to squares cut using the Stitched Shapes Framelits #145372 and the Layering Squares Framelits #141708.
