Simple Saturday: More Watercolor Wonder Note Cards

imageWe’re still trying to stay warm here in the frigid homeland.  They’ve already cancelled school on Monday for the entire state because of predicted wind chills. Brrr!

Here’s a couple of very simple cards for Simple Saturday. You just can’t go wrong using the Watercolor Wonder Note Cards and Envelopes for simple cards. All I did for these was stamp a sentiment from the Loving Thoughts stamp set. That’s it! Simple!

Have a warm day! Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Another Sneak Peek!

 Here are the o016ther two cards I made using a few of the new products from the Occasions Catalog!
I absolutely LOVE these Watercolor Wonder Designer Note Cards & Envelopes!  They’re gorgeous and they make it SO easy to whip up a card!   Yesterday I whipped up a quick set of all-014occasion cards for a gift.  This has got to be one of the first things you order when the catalog comes out on January 3rd!  🙂
The Just Sayin’ stamp set is so much FUN!  And with the coordinating framelits you can’t go wrong….especially when you can purchase them in a bundle.  I know you’re going to love the Occasions Catalog as much as I do.  If you haven’t received yours in the mail just let me know and I’ll be happy to send you one!
Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simply Saturday: A Sneak Peek!

010012How about a sneak peek for Simple Saturday!  The Occasions Catalog is coming and it’s FABULOUS!  I just had to share some of the new products with you!

Aren’t these adorable cards?  They’re both made with three new products and ink!  The first products you see are the Watercolor Wonder Designer Note Cards.  Aren’t they gorgeous?  I love the chevron design.  These are just two of the five designs.  I’ll show you two other designs next Saturday.

The other two new products kind of go together.  They’re a new stamp set called Just Sayin’ and it’s coordinating framelits.  I LOVE stuff that coordinates!  😀

The note cards are actually made from watercolor paper so they’re a little thicker and have some texture.  Like I said before, they’re gorgeous!  These little cards were so fun and easy to make.  You’ll have to give them a try!  You can order your new products January 2nd!  🙂

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Tags 4 You

011Simple Saturday!  If you haven’t started your making your Christmas cards this simple one is for you!

All you need is a piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock, a piece of designer paper from the Season of Style Paper Stack, two piece of Cherry Cobbler 1″ Grosgrain Ribbon and a tag stamped with the Tags 4 You stamp set and punched with the Label Bracket Punch.  That’s it!  Put them together and you have this cute and simple card!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!  🙂

Simple Saturday: Calm Christmas

007This card is another simple one from our October Christmas card Stamp-a-Stack.  This one was made using the Calm Christmas stamp set.  Didn’t this card turn out pretty using the Island Indigo ink and card stock?  It’s not your typical Christmas color but it’s striking on this card.

Stamping and layers are all you’ll find on this card.  Can you believe that I didn’t even use dimensionals?  Ha!  Simple…..

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

 

Simple Saturday: Calm Christmas

007Hello!  I’m back from the MN Homeland once again.  It sure is nice being able to go back and visit whenever we want.  Ah….the life of the semi-retired!  😀

It’s Simple Saturday today and I thought a Christmas card would be appropriate since it is pretty darn cold here in Denver and there were light snow flurries on my way home from the airport yesterday!  Brrr….!

This is one of the cards we’re making this week for our Christmas Card Stamp-a-Stack.  Simple, yet elegant.  I used the Calm Christmas stamp set from the Holiday Catalog and stamped it with Island Indigo ink.  Quite pretty if you ask me!  😉  Of course, I had to pop it up with Stampin’ Dimensionals!  Just three little layers, that’s it!  Simple!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Another Wedding Card

011OK…I got carried away making simple cards with the Best of Brides and Babies stamp set.  It just worked!  😀

I had originally stamped the image directly on the notecard but it was a little too sparse so I layered the image and popped it up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I also added a little bit of color with some markers.

How are you liking Simple Saturday?  Leave a comment and let me know!  Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Baby Card

006Yep, Best of Brides and Babies again for Simple Saturday but this week you get a baby card!

Yep again….I used the Notecards and Envelopes….I just can’t help myself!

I just stamped the image in Black StazOn ink and colored the letters with the Soft Sky marker and the heart with the Pink Pirouette marker.  The little hearts along the bottom are from the Create A Cupcake stamp set.  To cute!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Wedding Card

007It’s another Simple Saturday and I have another card made with the Notecards and Envelopes.  I’ve said it before, but they’re the perfect size of these simple cards!

Today I used “Best of Brides and Babies” to make this simple wedding card.  You can’t get much simpler can you?  To add a little pizzazz I used Silver Metallic Encore Ink (pg. 28 in the Holiday Catalog).  You can’t tell in the picture but it has a little shimmer to it.  Very fun!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Six-Sided Sampler

011I told you I liked the Six-Sided Sampler stamp set!  The hexagons are so FUN!

I did get this card from Pinterest.  Punch 5 hexagons, adhere them to your card stock (be sure to pop one of them up with a Stampin’ Dimensional) then add your sentiment and your Candy Dots!  That’s it!  Very fun and easy!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Lacy & Lovely

013Isn’t this a cute card for Simple Saturday?  This cutie is from Pinterest.  What a surprise!

I used the Lacy & Lovely stamp set on this card.  This stamp set was actually new to last year’s Stampin’ Up! catalog but I just recently acquired it.  I think one of my favorite parts of this stamp set is the sentiments.  They’re larger and I like the font.

I am SO glad that Pear Pizzazz has come back.  It’s such a pretty green and goes wonderfully with blues!  What’s your favorite new color?  Leave a comment and let me know!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday….from Pinterest!

001It’s Simple Saturday!  Such a cute little card.  The original didn’t have the black border on it but you know me and my layers!  😀

I hadn’t used this little chevron design from the Oh, Hello stamp set yet so this was the perfect opportunity!  It’s such a fun design.  I’ll have to use it again sometime.

I place little thank you cards in with my customer’s orders so this will be just perfect!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday Card: Regarding Dahlias

007It’s Simple Saturday!  You can’t get much simpler than this on a card can you?  Well, I guess I could have left off the sentiment but that would have made it a bit boring!

The Regarding Dahlias stamp set caught my eye when I made my first scan through the new catalog.  That flower just kind of pops out at you.  Besides that, my mom grows dahlias so I think of her when I use this stamp set!  Once again I used the notecards for my Simple Saturday card.  They make it so easy to make a simple card.  Have you used them yet?

I have a challenge for you….I would like to see your Simple Saturday card.  You can send me a link to your card in a comment or simply e-mail a picture of your card at cindy@stampbystampcreations.com.  I’d love to see them….and you never know….you might just see it on my blog someday!  😉

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Easy Label Love Card

033Another Label Love card for Simple Saturday.  I seem to like this stamp set for easy cards.

I do have to apologize for the retired ribbon I used….it’s my favorite though!  And when I made this card it was the only Melon Mambo ribbon I had!

Don’t these colors work great together?  I’m not sure if I ever used Island Indigo and Melon Mambo together before.  I’ll be using this combination now though….especially since it’s two of the colors in my favorite new designer paper:  Gingham Garden!

The little flowers are from the Create a Cupcake stamp set.  I haven’t used that one in awhile!  It’s fun to get out those oldies but goodies sometimes!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Simple Saturday: Swallowtail

022This Simple Saturday card actually has layers!  It’s still simple though.  My mom wanted some cards for Mother’s Day so this is one of the ones I sent her.  It will be perfect for a Stamp-a-Stack too.  Easy, yet elegant.  Hmmm….that could be another whole category of cards…..I like it!  😀

I adhered the Elegant Eggplant layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals to add a little pizzazz to the card.  You could even go a step further and add a little glitter to the butterfly too.  Of course, if you did that it wouldn’t be a Simple Saturday card…it sure would be pretty though!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
