Tea Bag Thank You Gifts

 

I made these tea bag holders as a thank you to the customers who bought my January Class Kit.  This is a great way to use the retired Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper.  I paired the plaid DSP with Black Cardstock and Real Red Medium Daisy Punch.


Dimensions:  9 3/4" x 3 3/4" and scored at 3 1/4", 6 1/2", cut the right side corner as show.



Stampin' Up! Art Gallery Bundle


When I first saw the Art Gallery Bundle in the new 2021 Spring Mini Catalog I knew I had to have it.  I kept the colors simple on this Happy Birthday card with this two-step stamping.  I used Smoky Slate Ink for the first layer and then Gray Granite Ink for the second layer.  The leaves and stem were stamped in Old Olive Ink.

  • White Cardstock:  5 1/4" x 4", embossed with Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder
  • Happy Birthday sentiment stamped in Versamark Ink and embossed with White Embossing Powder

How beautiful is the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper from the new 2021 Spring Mini Catalog.  The paper is so pretty that you don't need much.  I cut a piece of DSP measuring 5 1/4" x 4" and paired it with Terracotta Tile Cardstock. The "Wishing You Much Happiness Today And Always" sentiment is from the So Sentimental Stamp Set and stamped in Night o Navy Ink.

Celebrate Sunflowers Z Fold Card

True Love Designer Series Paper - Black & White


Have you seen the True Love Designer Series Paper in the new 2021 Spring Mini Catalog?  I LOVE IT.  I colored in the flowers with the Pool Party Dark Blend and the leaves with the Light Smoky Slate Blend and the I cut out the flower.  I used a 1" x 5 1/2" strip of the DSP for the black & white accent on the left.  The "thinking of you" sentiments is from the Happy Thoughts Stamp Set.

I am loving this new stamp set from the 2021 Spring Mini Catalog.  The Sweet Strawberry Bundle includes the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and the Strawberry Builder Punch.  Strawberries were stamped in Poppy Parade Ink for the inside and Real Red Ink for the outline.. I used Old Olive on the leaves with a touch of Daffodil Delight on the small flowers.
