Welcome to the July 2020 Candy Hearts Blog Hop! This month we are featuring the new 2020-2022 In Colors. I used three of them on my card: Cinnamon Cider, Just Jade, and Misty Moonlight. I used Memories & More (M&M) products from the Flowers for Every Season Suite along with the bloom & Grow Stamp set and Forever Flourishing Dies. The matching M&M card bases and envelopes and the M&M card pack make it a cinch to create a great card in no time.

I’ve just gotta say that I really love the 2020-2022 In Colors. So of course, I love the Flowers for Everything Suite, which includes all five of them. When I broke into my Flowers for Everything Memories & More Cards & Envelopes and my Flowers for Everything Memories & More Card Pack, I immediately fell in love. The variety is amazing – there are even Christmas cards! – and they make it so incredibly quick and easy to create a pretty card in no time. Today I’m sharing one that I made using one of the Bumblebee card bases and envelopes. I added a card from the M&M card pack, a strip of card stock, and 3 enamel dots. That’s it!
M&M = Memories & More

Welcome to the July 2020 OSAT Blog Hop! This month’s theme is Pretty in Pink, so we’re featuring the amazing pinks in the Stampin’ Up! color line up. As usual, I couldn’t choose just one, so I used them all: Petal Pink, Blushing Bride, Flirty Flamingo, Rococo Rose, Melon Mambo, and Magenta Madness. I cut strips of card stock in all the colors and arranged them in a sort of pinwheel design for the front of the card. The sentiment I cut using the Playful Alphabet Dies, Whisper White Card stock, and the new Foam Adhesive Sheets. I stamped the frame from the Swirly Frames stamp set and heat embossed it in white. For the tag, I covered one side in the same strips, and cut the top with the Fancy Tag Topper Punch.
Be sure to hop around to all the stops! I can’t wait to see what all the blog hop team members have for us today!

Today’s card features the new 2020-2022 In Color Magenta Madness. I used the So Sentimental stamp set, Timeless Label Punch, 2020-2022 In Color Designer Series Paper, and Magenta Madness 1/4″ Ribbon. It’s a really simple card. I used the DSP with dots to match the sentiment, “This calls for confetti!”

Jul 6, 2020 | Cards, Gallery, Swaps |
Today I’m sharing the card I made for the June 2020 Candy Hearts team card swap. I used the Pattern Play stamp set and Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper to create these simple and fun birthday cards. I love the cute stamped confetti over the scuffed up pattern of the DSP. Even though all the cards I made came from the same pattern of DSP, they all look a little different because some have more yellow than others, and because I stamped the confetti differently on each one. I posted a photo of two of the cards side by side below so you can see the difference between them.
By the way, this #simplestamping card is just stamps, ink, and paper! (Plus adhesive, of course.)
