Another Hey Chick Card

Hello My Dear Stamping Friends,

Isn’t this chick adorable?  The two bundles are so cute and they’re perfect together.  Check out the dies; there are there are lots of dies that don’t have stamps to match, for example, a chicken coop, a banner sign, corn, etc.  Pictures of the dies (and sets) are shown below in an earlier post.

This one is assembled exactly as shown.

The edges of the focal piece are colored using the Blending Brushes.

You do need to stamp your greeting before you use the embossing folder.

Supplies used include:

Hey Chick and Hey Birthday Chick Bundles — Limited Time Only

Stampin’ Up! is giving a us a treat beginning February 2nd.

Do you remember the Hey Chick stamp set that was available as a Sale-a-Bration gift in 2017?  Everybody loved it then and now it’s back—but so much better.   There’s now a set of dies available only during this promotion.  So, you can either order just the dies or if you don’t have the stamp set, you can order the entire bundle.  See the details below.

And, there’s more.  There’s now a second bundle available—meet Hey Birthday Chick.  It’s available as a bundle or the stamp set and dies can be purchased separately.

I’ve created a card for you.  I’d love to give credit to the person who inspired me, but I cannot figure it out.

These are adorable; I’m an Iowa farm girl and never thought I’d see dies for a corn stalk and ears of corn.  The stamps and the dies are so unique.  Check them out.

Here’s my February host code:  TRQANZ4C.  Please use it unless you’re placing a club order or unless your order is over $150 and not a club order, in which case you may claim the host benefits for yourself.

Here are the pictures and the details:

 

Hey Chick Bundle, 158627, $44, includes Hey Chick stamp set (which you might already have) and the Chick Dies.  Only available during the promotion.

Hey Chick Stamp Set, 158190, $17, 7 cling stamps.  Only available during promotion.

Chick Dies, 158199, $32, 19 dies.  Only available during the promotion.

Hey Birthday Chick Bundle, 158631, $43.  Only available during the promotion.

Hey Birthday Chick Stamp Set, 154464, $21.  Will be available in the January-June 2021 mini catalog.

Birthday Chick Dies, 158200, $27.  Only available during the promotion.

Here’s the card I created.  I think it’s so cute and the “hair” reminds me of myself some days.

Hey Chick & Hey Birthday Chick Bundles Card

This card is so much fun and everything is cut out with the dies—even the corn!

The first thing I did was cut an oval out of the center of the designer paper.  The designer paper is cut at 5 ¼ x 4; I cut a smaller piece of white card stock 5 x 3 ¾ to attach to the back of the dsp.  Be sure to glue just around the edges of the white before attaching it as you’ll need to slip a few items into the oval and under the dsp.

I colored the chicken with Blends as listed below—I don’t think you could make a mistake.  After you color it, cut it out using the die.

I first put the corn stalk down using green glue and then added the ears of corn. I put the ear of corn into its little husk using glue dots and then I used more glue dots to attach them to the stalk.

I used dimensionals behind the sign itself and just glue to tuck it into the oval.

Use dimensionals to attach the chicken.

I once again used green glue for attaching the “Happy Birthday”.  I think it would be cuter to have this greeting a little lower on the card.

Supplies used include:

Hey Chick & Hey Birthday Chick bundles
Daffodil Delight card stock, 142
Basic White card stock
Well Suited designer series paper, m67
Shaded Spruce card stock, 142
Soft Suede card stock, 142
Glue Dots 162
Dimensionals, 162
Memento pad, 147
Soft Suede pad, 142
Blends:  Lt & Dk Daffodil Delight, Lt & Dk Pumpkin Pie, Dk Poppy Parade, Dk Shaded Spruce, Lt Night of Navy,142
Stitched Shapes dies, 183

I hope you enjoy this card.  Please let me know if you have any questions.  Please call or text me at 303-888-1862.

Many hugs, Pat

January 2021 Incentive Cards

Fine Art Floral Pretty Peacock Card

Original by Sharon Hashimoto Burkert

This is a very easy card and I think it’s beautiful.  It’s made using my favorite suite in the catalog—the Fine Art Floral suite.

I used the new Blending Brushes to add a little Pretty Peacock ink to the embossed Pool Party card stock.  They’re very fun to use and I love the way they work.  After I finished,  I just rinsed it out with water.

Attach the Pool Party piece to the card base.

Wrap the 10” piece of Pool Party sheer ribbon around the Pretty Peacock and designer paper layer and tie a knot.  Add that layer to the Pool Party layer using dimensionals.

Stamp your greeting using Pretty Peacock ink and sponge the edges.  Adhere the two pieces together and then attach to card using dimensionals.

Add diamonds which have been colored with the Lt or Dk Pretty Peacock Blend.

Supplies used include:

Art Gallery bundle or suite, m 32-34
Blossoms in Bloom, 51
Pretty Peacock card stock, 143
White card stock, #159276, $9.75 (new white card stock)
Pool Party card stock, 143
Fine Art Floral designer paper, m 33
Pretty Peacock pad, 143
Bermuda Bay pad, 142
Pool Party pad, 143
Diamonds, 156
Lt or Dk Bermuda Bay Blend, 143
Double Oval punch, m 65
Printed Texture embossing folder, m 33
Pool Party sheer ribbon, 160
Blending Brushes, m70

 

Just Want to Say Card

 

Assemble the first three layers.

Lay the words on to the circle to see where you want to place them.  (I attached my words with glue and then I thought they looked a little flat so I cut out another set and attached them to the first ones by cutting little slices of mini glue dots.)  I think they’ll look great if you attach yours with glue dots.

Attach the circle to the designer paper layer.  I didn’t use dimensionals, but they would look great.

Attach the pearls which have been colored with the Dk Night of Navy Blends.

Supplies used include:

Fine Art bundle or suite, m 32-34
Pretty Parasol stamp set, (greeting), 44

Pearls, 156
Dk Night of Navy Blend, 142

 

Dragonfly Hello Card

 

Original by Paula Vincent

This one is very easy.

Attach the small Misty Moonlight (dry embossed piece) to the card base as shown.

Then add the designer paper layer.

Add the greeting using dimensionals.

Add the punched out dragonflies.  They were punched out from the designer paper.  You could put dimensionals under the dragonflies to add depth.  Add Wink of Stella to the dragonflies.

Supplies used include:

Dragonfly bundle or suite, m 24-27
Forever Fern, 110
Misty Moonlight card stock, 143

Glue dots, 162
Dimensionals, 162

 

Dragonfly Thinking of You

 

Original by Susan Fields

Attach the designer series paper to the Basic Black card stock piece and attach that to the card base.

Attach the Mossy Meadow and the greeting piece to each other as shown.

Put a few dimensionals on the back and drape the trim back and forth as shown.  You’ll probably need to add a few more dimensionals to attach it to the card.

Attach the dragonfly.

Supplies used include:

Dragonfly bundle or suite, m 24-27

Christmas 2018 vs Christmas 2020

Hello My Dear Stamping Friends,

I want to show you how our Christmas celebration was this year (with the Covid restrictions) compared to two years ago in 2018.

Christmas 2018

Christmas Package Exchange 2020 in Jim’s Shop

Christmas Zoom Meeting 2020 with All Our Families

There’s quite a difference, but this one was still so good.  Technology has certainly helped us during these trying times.  Please enjoy our Christmas pictures.

I’d love to hear or see how you celebrated this year.  It will be interesting to look back at.

I woke up this morning thinking I need to get back to stamping and my business.  Please remember that Sale-a-Bration starts on January 5th and runs through February.  You may recall that you earn a FREE Sale-a-Bration gift with each $50 you spend before tax and shipping.  If you haven’t received your copy of the January-June mini catalog or the SAB brochure, please let me know and I’ll send a set off to you. Call or text 303-888-1862.  I’d love to be your demonstrator.

Many hugs, Pat

Retiring & Clearance Sale — Up to 50% Off!

Hello My Dear Stamping Friends,

Stampin’ Up! has announced the retiring list and a big clearance sale for items in the August-December mini catalog beginning Tuesday, December 8 and running through January 4thAll of the items are available while supplies last only. 

Please click on the link below to see the list.

2020 1204 Year End Closeouts 2020 US only

Many of the items are reduced by 50%–others from 10-40%.  The list was a little confusing to me at first.  All of the retiring items are listed—many with huge discounts; others at their regular prices.

When you place your online order, please use host code FE2RQHN7, unless you’re placing a club order.  If you’re placing an order which isn’t a club order and is over $150, don’t use the host code so that you can claim the host rewards for yourself.

I’ll be placing my order early Tuesday and I advise you to do the same, if possible, in order to get the items you really want before they’re gone.

If your order is over $50 and you use the host code, I’ll send you a package of four card kits, which we’re still working on.  They’re coming along but haven’t yet been finished.  I’m sure you’ll love them.

Thank you so much; I appreciate you every day.  Many hugs to each of you, Pat

My Favorites From the Outgoing Mini Catalog

Hello My Dear Stamping Friends,

I know I just sent you a note a day or so ago, but I want to be sure that you take a last look at the August-December mini catalog.

I’m going to list my Favorite 10 items in this mini.  It’s a really good one.  When I set about to select my top 10, I pulled out 10 post it flags—well, I ran out of flags before I finished the catalog so I had to skinny up my list.

    1. Love of Leaves Bundle, 155195, p. 49, $47.50.
    2. Plaid Tidings 6 x 6 Designer Paper, 153527, p.57, $11.50.
    3. In the Pines Bundle, 155182, p. 43, $51.25.
    4. For Unto Us stamp set, 153335, p.35, $21.
    5. Evergreen Forest Embossing Folder, 153576, p. 35, $10.
    6. Merry Moose Bundle, 153015, p. 27, $31.50 – I think everybody needs this one.
    7. Dove of Hope Bundle, 155158, p. 13, $49.50.
    8. Life is Beautiful stamp set, 154871, p.51, $17.
    9. Gilded Autumn Suite, 155123, p. 45, $96.25.
    10. Cherish the Season Bundle, 155154, p. 33.

My favorite embellishments (which I had planned to list in my Favorite 10 list, but I love too many things) are All the Trimmings Embellishments, p. 25; Wonderful Gems, p. 31; and the Sequins for Every Occasions, p. 66—these come in a box with four compartments so they aren’t all mixed together.  I think they’re a real deal.

If you’d like to place an online order for these things, please click the Shop Now button and then the Shop Here button.  If your order is over $50 and you use my host code, I’ll send you a packet with 4 card kits in it.  My host code is:  FE2RQHN7 .

I hope you enjoy my list.  Have fun checking these items out.  I think you’ll love them, too.

Hugs to each of you, Pat

My “Tough Old Broad” Story

My “Tough Old Broad” Story

I am writing this post on Thanksgiving and among all the other great things I am thankful for is the fact that I am here to celebrate this wonderful day.

I’m sure that most of you remember that I was in a pretty bad UTV accident in August, 2019.

I was riding in the UTV with my sister-in-law and granddaughter, Molly.  We were just taking a leisurely ride around Jeff & Julie’s property—they had bought property and built a house there. By the way, a UTV is kind of like a Razor with a bench seat across.)

We were having a tour of their property when suddenly the UTV took off.  Molly “so thankfully” had put her seatbelt on and she was sitting in the middle.  I was thrown out and the UTV went into the ditch and rolled a couple of times.  Molly stayed in—thanks to her seatbelt—and Julie was thrown out after it rolled into the ditch.

I was the most seriously injured and was flown to UC Memorial Hospital in Colorado Springs.  I was in the ICU for a few days and then spent a few more days in the normal area of the hospital.  In total I had five surgeries.  Today I have almost no lingering accident issues.

When our sons-in-law saw that I was pretty tough to handle all of that without too much fuss, they began calling me a tough old broad in a very loving way.  I love it and them.

I hope you all had a good Thanksgiving Day.  Unfortunately, our families had to celebrate the day in separate family gatherings due to the COVID issues.  We did a lot of texting and exchanging of photos.

Hopefully, Thanksgiving next year will be “normal”.

Hugs to each of you, Pat
