 Coneflower Celebrations Timid Tiger

Original by Jennifer Cotton

Adhere the Early Espresso & Crumb Cake pieces to the card base

Fold the large coneflower piece in half as shown.  Lay the pieces in place to determine where you want them placed.  The coneflower base has dimensionals under it. Put the Timid Tiger petals piece on top of the coneflower base.

There are detail pieces for the leaves, and they have adhesive sheets on them so they should be easy to apply.

There are dimensionals under the greeting piece.

Our flower opens & I’ve seen others put a little Hello in there or you could close it with your favorite adhesive.

Scenic Adventures Mountain Card

Original by Heather Heroldt

You’ll definitely want to lay this card together before you attach any of the mountain & tree pieces.

Adhere the Azure Afternoon & designer paper pieces to the card base, and then start laying your pieces together.  It’s kind of like a puzzle.  You’ll need to lay the small Basic Gray piece down first and proceed from there.

Not all of the pieces line up at the bottom of the card as that would have made the card too thick.

Hello My Dear Stamping Friends,

We hope you’re well.  I’m doing well, and Jim is getting a little better every day.  He’s a little impatient with the length of time it’s taking for his hematoma to heal itself.

These are the directions for the March Rewards cards.

If you’d like to place an order, please visit www.stampinlady.com and click on Shop Now, and then Shop Now again to ensure that you’re shopping with me.

There are no longer host codes; you will now receive 10% in Rewards on any order $20 or above.  The Rewards can be spent on any future order that you place; they must be used within a year.  You may spend them on your next order or save them to purchase something special.

You will probably need to opt into the Rewards program, but it’s very easy.  I can also send you an invitation if you’d like for me to.  Just let me know.

Also let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way.  Call or text 303-888-1862.

Many hugs, Pat

Floral Impressions Daffodil Delight Card

Inspired by Tracy Bradley

Please note:  the bottom flap piece on the card is cut incorrectly  It’s ¼” too wide.  It should be 3 ½ wide instead of the 3 ¾” wide that I cut it.  I’ll have corrected the ones that are mailed, but the ones I’ve handed out are incorrect and you’ll need to trim off that ¼”.

I’m posting a sneak peek of the January rewards cards, because some of the items on each card are only available through February during Sale-a-Bration.

I apologize to you as the January rewards cards are not in the mail to you.  We are behind.  I can’t even show you all of four of them in this post, because they’re not all ready.  I’ll get them to you as soon as possible, but I don’t think it will be this week.  We’ll see and I’ll try.

Enjoy this sneak peek and be sure to place the orders needed for the Sale-a-Bration items before the end of the month if you want these special items.  I am loving them.

If you want to place an order, visit www.stampinlady.com and click on Shop Now tab.  That will take you to my Stampin’ Up! website where you can click on the Shop Now tab.  My host code is JN29PVZM.  Please don’t use the host code if your order is over $150 or a club order.  If it’s over $150, you may claim the host rewards for yourself.

Many hugs to each of you, Pat

 Heart-Shaped Floral Delight Card

Original by Julie Skotzke

Isn’t this a precious card?!?!?  I love it.

It’s basically just as it looks.  There is adhesive on the back of the heart vine so it will be easy to attach.

There are dimensionals under the greeting piece.  The bees, leaves, and flower are attached with glue dots.  You’ll probably need to scrunch your glue dots up a little.

Everyday Arches “Hello” Card

Original by Haley Dyer

This one is exactly as it looks.

There’s no space between the upper and lower rows of arches-they touch.

There are dimensionals under the zinnia and the greeting piece (arch).

The flower is Flirty Flamingo and its center is Blackberry Bliss.  I love the way it turned out.  (We tried a few different flower colors before deciding, and I love it.)

November 16, 2024

Hello My Dear Stamping Friends,

I hope you’re doing well.  We’re hanging in there.  My migraines have been pretty bad this month, and I’ve had some sinus-type headaches, too.  I’m always searching for the cause of each one, but I never figure it out.  I’m due for my Botox injections next week so maybe that will help.

We took the October Rewards packets to the post office yesterday so you should receive them within the next few days.  I especially love this month’s cards—it seems like there’s something for everybody.

If you’d like to place an order that’s under $150 and not a club order, please use my host code  DNWQ2J6U.  To place an order, visit www.stampinlady.com and click on Shop Now, Shop Here.

I found a kit that I’m going to use for Christmas gifts  It’s the Nature’s Painting kit.  It contains 24 really nice quality sheets of printed floral designs (4” x 6”)  for you to color with the 8 included watercolor pencils.  You can then blend the colors with the included water painter.  I have some on hand if you want me to put one on the porch for you—we can talk about payment options.  To see this kit, visit www.stampinlady.com, click on shop now, shop here.  Then click on Menu, Shop Products, and then Kits.  Or, you can order it as usual. It’s pretty cool and the first one of its kind.

As always, please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way.  Call or text 303-888-1862.

Thank you so much, Pat

Sentimental Christmas Suite Stocking Card

Original by Cheri Stojkovich

This card is much easier than it looks.

The card is actually the white card stock, which has been scored for you. It tucks into the pocket that you create.  The last time we sent you a pocket card, we attached tear n tape to the back for you, and I forgot about it this time.  Tear n tape is the best for this application, but glue is good, too.  You’ll just need to let it dry.

The Baker’s Twine is wrapped around the folded card, putting the twine through the inside of the card.

There are dimensionals under the stocking.

Supplies used include:

Sentimental Christmas suite, m 28-29 (this designer paper was chosen as Stampin’ Up!’s donation product–$3 of each purchase will go toward a charity)
