Woot-Woot….here is to the end of a week and I hope that it was a great one for you! Here you go with Step it up Sunday and at a glance you might be saying that it is not stepped up!
I admit, this is such and AMAZING and CLASSIC Stamp Set...that is soooooo easy to work with, today’s version is stepped up by adding extra layers, a simple change of orientation.
Initially I was thinking about adding some ribbon…..nope! Adding some pearls…..nope! Changing the base color of the card….nope..then I decided to do what works best for me, JUST KEEP IT SIMPLE, but just show a different way to present it!
Well….you decide – SIDE by SIDE ~ YOU decide!
I hope that this shows you that you can keep it clean, make some minor changes and still have a great card! I personally like both of them and you couldn’t go wrong……today’s card I put the sentiment inside the card….so it is still a part of it! (wow, it is a great sentiment)
In the below picture you can see that I used dimensions to “lift” up the layers and trust me, when you hold it in your hand….you say – WOW….because this is a square card you will need extra postage but then again, it if was a regular size card you would probably need extra postage with the “extra lift” that I did.
Because we are on this topic, I think that there are times that making a special card with an odd size (like this 4 1/4″ square card) is soooo worth it because it is special – it is as easy as that!
We all know that that Stitched Framelits are back in stock (I would not wait as they are one hot item) and I used them today as well as the Layered Square Framelits to make this fun happen today!
I just think that that the elegance of this stamp set can hold its own…ANY DAY! 🙂 I think that this is a stamp that you simply need to have in your stash as it is a “statement stamp set” and yep, I will do a post with note cards for a great gift idea!
A simple layering effect makes such a difference. I admit, I was thinking about adding dashed of black stitched lines around the perimeter of very vanilla layered part…but then I thought….JUST LEAVE IT ALONE…..sometimes you just need to do that – LESS IS BEST!
There you go! I hope that I have inspired you and I hope to see you back for more SIMPLE FUN! I love helping you reach your goals as YOU do make a difference! Enjoy FOOTBALL DAY...I know that Sunny will be doing that!
Happy, happy weekend to all! Our Chick has a new name….Henrietta! That was fun to see how you all voted and I was thrilled that you all liked Parker, he is one cute pig. Every time I look at his expression, I crack up laughing!
Welcome to another edition of Simple Saturday and I hope to see you back here tomorrow to see Step It Up Sunday where I will take the same basic card and make some simple changes to give you another way to look at card making!
I admit, I can specifically remember looking through the Occasions Catalog for the very first time….and wowza – right on page 24 was this stamp set…appropriately named Beautiful You. This is such a very different stamp set for us and I say, “I LIKE IT” – the art work is sooooooo elegant and I am amazed at all of the things you can do with this stamp set!
You really do not need me on this one but I will give you the super easy measurements. If I cannot purchase a stamp set in photopolymer, I go for the clear mount and for something like this…I do use the Stamp -a -ma- Jig….this is a tool that everyone needs to master as it will be your friend in many projects.
I have not blogged a bunch about this tool lately but all I can really, really emphasize is….learn to use it and learn to be comfotable with it because once you do, it will be your best stampin’ friend!
For the Dijon Skirt, it is a stamp in the set and I stamped it off once before I stamped it over the image. I felt that a softer look and feel was perfect with this clean and simple card. Lets quickly chat about this sentiment isn’t it a “keeper”. This stamp set would be a perfect stamp set to make a bunch of different cards to pull together as a fabulous gift for someone! (hmmmmmmm…..maybe a future post?)
To keep the simplicity and elegance of this card, I added 3 scored lines on the top and the bottom…a perfect finishing touch. When I do this I prefer using the Simply Scored Tool.
This is one of the very first things I purchased from Stampin’ Up! years ago and I will say, as much as I adore (and I do) our trimmer, I much prefer using the simply scored for making score lines like I did today because I can get a “deeper groove/impression”
The over all card is a 4 1/4″ Square in Very Vanilla
The black mat is a “smidge” larger, 4 1/8″ square
Using the stamp-a-ma-jig I stamped the sentiment and image using the Black Archival Ink.
The skirt was “stamped off once” in Dijon to give a softer look and feel.
The envelope was made using the Envelope Punch Board….easy-peasy!
I am sooooo excited to finally break out this stamp set and have fun. It is special, very special and I just love the “sketch” look and elegance that it gives. This is a stamp set that will always “make you LOOK GREAT”
I hope that we all live by this great sentiment…you all know how I love my quotes….this is a great one that I know that if I received a card from a friend with this one it….I would feel super special….
Do you know what happens in one month from today? On February 21st, there will be (3) more additions to the already great Sale-A-Bration Items….but remember, the SAB items are only available for a limited time, while supplies last with every qualifying order of $50. The is why I say…It is the SWEETEST time of the year!
Good Friday…and are you ready for some FRIDAY FUN!!! On Monday, I did a post with the Hey, Chicks Stamp Set and asked for feedback with what to name the new chick!
Please click here to see that post and then grab another cup of coffee and read the comments…you will be glad that you did it because not only is it a hoot…but it just shows this great fun we have together! I received probably 15 emails as well 33 comments with ideas of names.I have narrowed it down to a couple…so let’s see who wins!
We have a new guy, meet Parker. This is the FIRST that I have ever shown a stamp that was not a Stampin’ Up! Stamp but I just could not resist. Guess who gave me the “heads up” on this dude…Chris R….our funny and loyal Chris R. 🙂
Whenever there is a super cute card, idea or Stamp she always sends an email my way with a typical Chris R comment and when I saw Parker, I knew that he needed to be on Randall Lane! I did a google search for him and CLICK – SOLD!
Here is a funny about it – the company was called Stampingbella and when I just bought Parker (he was sad in his shopping cart all by himself) I fill in the comments section of how happy I was that there was such a cute stamp and that I have Dasiy-Mae etc…..and yesterday when I RIPPED open the envelope there were (2) more Parker stamps in there with a super sweet note of Daisy needed more friends!
Wasn’t that the best….you see – another example of kindness…..this MADE my day that someone knew that paying it forward would make another persons day!
Here you go – you can vote on a name…..(this is all new to me) 🙂 Phillis is the chick on the left!
Here is a good picture of the girls…as I said on Monday, Phyllis needs to get a “touch up” – her roots are showing! I just love these girls and I knew that I just had to introduce you to Parker. He arrived yesterday in the mail and I SQUEALED all the way to the house and couple hardly wait to INK HIM UP!
Sorry for the long yada…yada…yada but I want you to read this comment from Monday – this made me laugh. I think that this is a super cute story and you bet that every time I eat a sugar cookie I will think of this!
Here is another funny and it is soooooo strange because what a small world we live in. In reading Chris R comment she said that her Grandmothers name was Effie…..my G-Grandmothers name was Effie…..now I ask you – how many Effie’s do you know…..that is a super old fashion name but I thought how ironic!
I can’t wait to read your comments about Parker….he is one handsome dude and I will tell Daisy about him! I was so excited about him that I just had to share him with you!I did use the watercolor pencils on him with the Blender pens. His face was blushing bride and I used the aqua painter!
Please remember that with a 75+ order with me this month, I will send you the blender pens…..now that we have these fabulous watercoloring pencils, its always great to have the pens plus you would have qualified for a Sale -a-Bration freebie!
He is also our “Super Hero” for today’s Inauguration….let’s all hope and pray that our country has a safe day. 🙂 See you tomorrow for Simple Saturday…..I am featuring a stamp that I have YET to feature and one that I am sure that when you looked at the catalog you thought, Susan will but this one! (can you guess????)
