Flying Home

Come fly away with me and this cute stamp set, Flying Home before all of them fly off the Stampin' Up! retiring shelf.  For this card I layered the base of the card with some Dapper Denim paper embossed with the Woodland Embossing Folder , a swirl fromSwirly Scribbles Thinlits, and the Stitched Framelits.

Wild About Flowers

Truth?  I was surprised to see this stamp set on the retiring list.  Paired with the Stamparatous it is so easy to line up the flowers with the stems.  I was even able to move the plates down two spaces and create the bouquet look on this card.  I used Perfect Plum paper and ink to show you how much you need to stock up on the paper and the ink refill for your collection because this color is retiring.  Take sometime to add fantastic retiring products to your shopping cart at www.kris.stampinup.net

Colorful Seasons

Since it seems like spring is never going to arrive in MN, I used Colorful Seasons to force it!  This card was made after I saw a card my friend Tee made.  The branch tree is attached to a piece of Whisper White paper while the flowers are over the top on vellum.  The thank you sentiment is also stamped on the vellum in versa mark and copper heat embossing powder.  Get your supplies for this card at www.kris.stampinup.net

Spring Frame Sampler

I live in MN and we just got plowed out from a nasty spring blizzard.  I needed to remember that SPRING will be here as soon as the foot of snow melts, so I made this spring sampler.  I used:

Awesomely Artistic

Colorful Seasons

Petal Palette

Large Letter Framelits

Butterfly Thinlits

Daisy Delight Stamps and Punch

Talk about a versatile and gorgeous Stamp Set and Thinilits.  I love the Petal Palette set and I think you will too.  The Garden Trellis Folder is a prefect match with this set.  Did you know that there is a sweet little birdie that is ready to sing any sentiment for you?  Or detailed Thinilits that will add country charm to any card?  Let me help yo get creative with this set.  Contact me today at www.kris.stampinup.net

Waterfront Mountains

About a month ago my niece was married up in the mountains.  This is a card I made after I got home from my trip to Colorado.  I used the Waterfront Stamp Set to create the mountains and then added the "snow" to the top mountains with Shimmery White Embossing Paste.  Come and create with me at www.kris.stampinup.net

Dragonfly Dreams With Brusho

The dragonfly is my favorite for so many reasons.  On this card the stamp set Dragonfly Dreams flies away on a base of water color paper colored with Brusho Watercolor Crystals.  If you haven't created with this product, let me help you.  There are five primary colors so the combinations are endless.  For this card I spritzed the paper with water first and then tapped the dry crystals directly onto the paper.  I sprinted more water until I got the desired look.  

The Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Label Me Pretty Bundle.  This bundle comes with a stamp set and a punch. 

I'd love to create with you.  Contact me at www.kris.stampinup.net

Petal Palette In Blue

I was at my Stampin' Up! downline meeting and we made this card.  The Petals & More Thinlits are the center focus of this card.  The delicate flowers are stunning.  I love how Marina Mist and Dapper Denim  cardstock and ink compliment each other in the card. Stay tuned for more cards using this set.  www.kris.stampinup.net

Hold On To Hope

Sometimes,  all we can do is hold on to hope.  I was at an event and I got a card using the Hold On To Hope Bundle.  I couldn't wait to get home and get out the Brusho crystal and make the background myself.  I love how I can create any color I want and control the intensity of the color.  Look at the details of the cross.  I wish you could see how the Silver Foil paper makes this card even more elegant.  If you go to my site you can get the products you need to make this card.  www.kris.stampinup.net

Heartfelt Blooms

My customers wanted a Stamp a Stack of  thank you cards so  I created this card as one of the cards.  I used the Heartfelt Blooms FREE Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Brations stamp set.  Want one?  Contact me www.kris.stampinup.net.

The card base is Basic Gray paper with the leaves from the stamp set stamped in Smokey Slate for soft background.  I cut a piece of Pool Party paper at 4"x4", Smokey Slate at 3"x4" , and Whisper White at 2 3/4"x4".  The amazing details and shading of the stamp does all the work with Smokey Slate ink.  That's it, unless you make a little mistake and need to add a gem to hide it!

Happy creating,

Beautiful Peacock

I was at a downline meeting (ask me how to be part of my downline) and we got to use the up and coming stamping tool of 2018, the Stamparatus to perfectly position the Beautiful Peacock stamp.  The jeweled tone of the Tranquil Tide and the Brightness of the Lemon-Lime Twist show off this gorgeous detail of the peacock.  Look at the detail of the Scalloped Circle Punch.  It pulls this card together.  Did you know that you can get the stamp free?  Contact me and I will help you earn yours! www.kris.stampinup.net
