Sneak Peek - Hello Ladybug, Ladybug Builder Punch, New Horizons Designer Series Paper, Stampin' Up! Happy Trails Mugs - Flower Butterfly & Ladybug Plant Pokes/Bouquets

It's a cloudy day outside today in Midland, Michigan.  Our high temp for today is 39F with a low of 31F for tonight.  The winds are light and variable.


Reminders:  See information below in my blog post for details for:
The Last Chance Products Sale


Please remember to give credit where credit is due.  If you use my idea's on your blog, please give credit and share a link back to my blog!!!


My share for today is a 3D project that I designed using new Stampin' Up! products from the upcoming 2022 Mini Occasions Catalog and more.  Let's take a look:


First off, pictured above are Stampin' Up!'s Happy Trails Mugs that Demonstrators can purchase as a Supply Item.  They say 'Happy Trails' on the inside bottom of the mugs.  They are fun as once your coffee (or drink) is gone, you can read the 'Happy Trails' on the bottom and it's a great way to start off your day (making memories)!!!  


I decided to make a couple of my Mugs into Bouquets of Flowers, Ladybugs and Butterflies and some separate Plant Pokes.

I saw this video on the internet with Jessica Hart from Australia where she made Sunflowers with her Ladybug Builder Punch.  Here is the Link below to her video:


Very nicely done Jess.  

I purchased my Flower Stems at a local dollar store.


I did make my Flowers a little different and used Stampin' Up!'s (and my new FAVE) New Horizons Designer Series Paper found on page 43 of the new Mini Occasions Catalog.  

Below are just a few of the Flowers that I made using the new Ladybug Builder Punch.


Making all these Flowers is a great way to show off Stampin' Up!'s new embellishments too!  

For the Flowers pictured on the left and right, I used the new Polished Dots found on Page 23 of the upcoming Mini Occasions Catalog.  They come in Calypso Coral and Very Vanilla.

And, for the center Flower, I used the new Faux Sea Glass Shapes also found on page 33.  They come in Just Jade, Old Olive and White.  I can't wait to may a seaside scape with them!!!


For the Flower on the left, I used the new Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels found on page 9.

For the center Flower, I used the Pearl Basic Jewels from the Annual Catalog.

And for the Flower on the right Flower, I used more Polished Dots.


Pictured above is two of the Ladybug/Leaf Plant Pokes that I made.  

Using the Hello Ladybug Stamp Set, I stamped my Leaves in Granny Apple Green Ink onto Basic White Cardstock and fussy cut them out.

I stamped my Ladybugs in Real Red Ink and Memento Black and punched them out with the new Ladybug Punch found on page 20.


For the Butterflies, I punched out two of the Leaf sets from the New Horizons DSP.

I trimmed out a 1/8" strip of Basic Black Cardstock, adhered one Leaf Set on each side of the strip and wrapped and adhered the strip around the Butterfly.

(I put a Butterfly and the walking Ladybug onto this Mug.)


I manipulated the Antenna with my fingers into a V shape and adhered it with a tiny, tiny dab of glue.

I adhered two Pearl Basic Jewels for eyes.


I will be making two Bouquets for my tables in my studio and a few more plant Pokes for my plants.


I Love African Violets!!!


The Butterflies almost look like an Orchid coming out of this plant which is almost done blooming already.


Have a fantastic, fun and flowery day!!!

Let your imagination run WILD with Stampin' Up!'s new New Horizons Suite available to order starting January 4th, 2022.

What a fun Card to design!  Now, will I be able to part with this beautiful Card!!!

Let me know if you have questions or if I can help in any way!!!

So, Be Jolly my Friends and take advantage of the Last Chance Products Sale from Stampin' Up!!!!

Make it a FUN day every day!!!

Sneak Peek - New Horizons DSP, Horizon Dies, Artic Bears, Polar Bears, Christmas Trees - Thank You Card

It's an overcast, foggy morning outside today in Midland, Michigan.  We got another inch of snow last night and we are expected to get a little bit more today.  Our high temp for today is 38F with a low tonight of 24F.  The winds are light and variable. 


Reminders:  See information below in my blog post for details for:
The Last Chance Products Sale


Please remember to give credit where credit is due.  If you use my idea's on your blog, please give credit and share a link back to my blog!!!


My share for today is a Card using the New Horizons Designer Series Paper that I designed using new Stampin' Up! products from the upcoming 2022 Mini Occasions Catalog and more.  Let's take a look:

First off, I want to show you what I did with my Breathe-Deer Card:


I trimmed out a Mat for behind my Breathe-Deer Card and inserted the Card inside an Oak frame.  I just LOVE it and it will stay in my living room forever!  Remember, I said that I didn't think that I could part with this Card-Well, I can't!!!  I may have to make more and sell them!!!

I designed this Card using Stampin' Up!'s new New Horizons Designer Series Paper, On the Horizon Stamp Set, Horizon Dies, (page 42-43 from Stampin' Up!'s upcoming 2022 Mini Catalog) Grassy Grove Stamp Set and Grove Dies (page 47).

O.K. Onto my new Card:


My Card Base is Rich Razzleberry Cardstock.

My Card Front Panel is from Stampin' Up!'s New Horizons 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper.


I die cut the Stalactites and Stalagmites and created an icicle like frame around the Card.  I also die cut the Ice for grounding for the Polar Bears.  I die cut the Moon and stamped it with Basic Gray Ink.

I die cut out the Trees from the Christmas Trees Dies.


I stamped the Birds in Basic Gray Ink and lightly colored them in with my Basic Gray Stampin' Write Marker.

I die cut my Polar Bears from Basic Gray Cardstock.


I stamped the Ice Build-Up and Thank You in Rich Razzleberry Ink onto a panel of Basic White Cardstock.

I adhered a negative die cut for grounding for the Polar.

I die cut out the Polar Bear from Smoky Slate Cardstock.


I applied a good coating of Shimmery Crystal Effects on the Moon.  It's kind of neat how the Crystal Effects picks up the light in my studio.  It looks like the Moon is really Shining. 

Let your imagination run WILD with Stampin' Up!'s new New Horizons Suite available to order starting January 4th, 2022.

What a fun Card to design!  Now, will I be able to part with this beautiful Card!!!

Let me know if you have questions or if I can help in any way!!!
