Hello Cupcake Double Z-Fold

Hello and Happy Wednesday! Well, it's another cold winter day here in CNY but, it's staying daylight longer so Spring is coming...I hope lol. Anyhoo, I have a fun double Z fold card to share with you and it features the totally adorable Hello Cupcake Sale-a-bration stamp set. It's just so stinkin' cute.

To begin, you will need a card base that measures 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 2 3/4" and 6" ; I used Lovely Lipstick and added 2 pieces of DSP from the All My Love collection measuring 2 1/2" x 4" and 4 3/4" x 4"
Then, for the second Z fold piece, I used a piece of Flirty Flamingo cut 3" x 9" scored at 3" and 6" and folded into a Z. I then cut 2 pieces of Whisper White 2n3/4" x 2 3/4" and stamped the sentiments from Hello Cupcake in Lovely Lipstick ink and attached the Flirty Flamingo to the Lovely Lipstick card base. Then, I stamped the cupcake "wrapper" in Lovely Lipstick, the "cupcake" in Daffodil Delight and the "frosting" in Flirty Flamingo.

Sadly, as of yesterday, the coordinating Call Me Cupcake Framelit Dies sold out, however, these can easily be fussy cut, and I popped them up on Stampin' Dimensionals to complete the card.
I hope you enjoyed today's card. Be sure to stop in tomorrow for another fun card using this great Sale-a-bration offering.
Happy Stamping!

Important Update on Die Inventory

Hey guys,
An important update from Stampin' Up! regarding our die inventory and we have a few that are at risk for selling out very quickly and when they do, they will be gone forever. So, if any of these dies happen to be on your must have list, it's important that you order very soon.
Here is what Stampin' Up! has to say:
"Due to complications with our die supplier, we’ve run out of the Doily Builder Thinlits Dies (item 148553) in North America and they will not be available in the future; this item will retire with the 2019 occasions catalog and because of these complications, we will not be able to replenish inventory on this item. If you placed an order for these dies while the item was on backorder, your order will be filled as soon as possible.
We anticipate our inventory may soon be depleted on a few additional dies that will retire with the current occasions catalog. The dies listed below will retire and will likely run out before the end of the catalog sales period.
If we sell out of these dies, they will no longer be available to order:
  • Wonderful Floral Framelits Dies (item 148529)
  • Rose Trellis Thinlits Dies (item 148549)
  • Detailed Birthday Edgelits Dies (item 148548)
We are also concerned that we may run out of a few dies that will carry over into the new annual catalog. If this happens, they may go on backorder or may not be available to order until we are able to replenish the inventory.
We recognize that this is frustrating for you, and apologize for the inconvenience you are experiencing. The last thing we want to do is disappoint our demonstrators and their customers, so we are working on solutions to improve the situation with this product line."

Get 'em While You Can!


Hi, I wanted to drop by and let you in on a little secret. Well, maybe it's not a secret because it happens every year, but the gorgeous 2017-2019 InColor collection will be going away and in the next few weeks, it will be announced that they will only be available "while supplies last", so really, right now is the last opportunity to pretty much guarantee their availability. You see, right now, if they happen to run out today, they will order more and get them to you, but in a few weeks, if they run out, that will be that. So, if you still need to grab those ink refills or want to get a stash of your favorite cardstock, now is the time to do that. Same goes for the coordinating Designer Series Paper and embellishments like ribbon and such. So, I just want to get the word out there for you. I wouldn't want you to miss out.
Happy Stamping,

Country Floral Dynamic Embossing Folder - Sale-a-bration Second Release

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday! I'm so glad you stopped by, I have a fun card to share with you that is so simple to recreate but really packs a punch and it's using the brand new Sale-a-bration second release item, the Country Floral Dynamic Embossing folder! I just LOVE this embossing folder. And it lends itself to some fun techniques like adding ink directly to the embossing folder to create a fun look. But for today's card, I ran the Whisper White panel through the Big Shot with the embossing folder, then  colored the flowers using a selection of Stampin' Blends and it really popped!
  I stamped the sentiment which comes from another SAB offering, Part of My Story using Calypso Coral ink and punched out using the Pretty Label punch and I layered that against a piece of Old Olive also punched out with the Pretty Label punch. I then punched a hole on the left edge and ran a piece of Calypso Coral ribbon through and tied it into a bow. I secured the Pretty Label piece with Stampin'  Dimensionals and adhered the panel to a Calypso Coral card base measuring 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" scored and folded at 4 1/4".And that my friends completes this card. 

Have a great day and Happy Stamping,
