Hello and welcome! I am Theresa McEntee, creator of Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts. Today I have the pleasure of participating in the Blog Hop with Around the World on Wednesday (AWOW) organized by Angie McKenzie.
On the second Wednesday of each month, the AWOW team put together a thematic hop to give you some inspiration for your own crafting. This or That? is this month’s theme. My project is Sunrise? or Sunset?
My Project for today
I really enjoy using the Blending Brushes and the vibrant Stampin’ Up! Inks to create the sunrise and sunset scenes.
This card was made using the Grove Dies which coordinate with the Grassy Grove stamp set. The exciting news is that these are crrying over to the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog!
I really struggled with coming up wtih a This or That? for this month’s Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop. I have always enjoyed playing with the Blending Brushes. I love how you can blend the inks together! Heere are photos of the sunrises and sunsets here in Arizona that I used for inspiration.

Hello! Welcome to Kylie & Bruno Bertucci’s Free Demonstrator Training Group Blog Hop for January 2024. I am Theresa with Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts and I have a Thoughtful Expressions ShakerThank You card for you today. Thanks so much for joining me today!
We are a group of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world. We are members of this free training group to help us build a successful Stampin’ Up! business. My goal this year is to continue to participate in the monthly Blog Hop to show you the card I will send my customers as a thank you for ordering from me. The Thoughtful Expressions Shaker Thank You Card should be a fun card to receive!
This blog hop is full of ideas and creative inspiration! Be sure to visit everyone’s blog by clicking on the links at the end of my blog. Please leave some comments so we know how we are doing.
Why did I make this Thoughtful Expressions Shaker Thank You Card? My sister wanted to learn how to make shaker cards. The basic card was one of the samples I showed her. When I saw the beautiful hummingbird in the Thoughtful Expressions stamp set, I thought–why not add a hummingbird to the front? So I had my idea for my customer thank you card!

Instructions
Shaker Card
Diecut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Blueberry Bushel cs with the large arched window die in the Garden Meadow Dies. With the same die, diecut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Meandering Meadow DSP.
Lay the Blueberry Bushel cs diecut panel on the front of the card base.
Apply Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the back of the arched window you diecut from the DSP. Insert it in the Blueberry Bushel cs frame to adhere it to the front of the card base.
Remove the Blueberry Bushel cs frame. Flip this over and adhere the Window Sheet. Place Stampin’ Dimensionals in the corners and on the sides.
Tip #1: to reduce the sequins sticking to the edge of the Foam Adhesive Strip, apply the Embossing Buddy to the edge that will be facing inside the shaker. ( first photo below)
Tip #2: to help the Foam Adhesive Strip cover the archway and remain flat, use your Paper Snips to make a nick in the outside edge. (second photo below with arrows)
Add the Iridescent Circles to the inside of the area framed with the Foam Adhesive Strips. (second photo below)
Remove the protective cover on the Foam Adhesive Strips as well as the Stampin’ Dimensionals on the frame with the window sheet. Turn the frame over and carefully adhere it to the Foam Adhesive Strips and the front of the card base. (third photo below)
Yay! the shaker card is done. Now for the decorating!
Watercoloring the Hummingbird
Ink up the hummingbird with Smokey Slate Ink. Use a Sponge Dauber to apply Memento Ink to the face, bill and neck. Stamp on to the Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper.
Drop one drop of Orchid Oasis Ink from the Re-Inker onto a clear block. Use a small paint brush. Put the paint brush in water and touch it to a small amount of the Orchid Oasis Ink. Spread it on the clear block until it is diluted. Then apply it to the hummingbird wings. Follow with the remaining colors making some areas light and some dark for shading. Add the Wink of Stella if desired.
Finishing the card
Use the Thoughtful Expressions Die to diecut the Watercolor Paper for the inside. Stamp the small sprig of flowers in Smoky Slate Ink. Watercolor with Crushed Curry, Lemon Lime Twist and Granny Apple Green Inks. Adhere to the inside of the card base.
Use Blueberry Bushel Ink to stamp the sentiment from the Wildlife Wonder stamp set, onto the Basic White cs. Diecut with the smallest of the Thoughtful Expressions dies.

Project Details
This card was made using a variety of stamps and dies. The Autumn Leaves stamp and Dies come as a bundle (#162186). I have really liked the Aspen Dies that go with the Perched in a Tree stamp set. The Layering Leaves stamp set is great for sentiments.

Hello fellow stampers! You are visiting with Theresa McEntee-author of Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts. I am hopping with the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop today. There are several of us- you will find the list to follow the hop at the end of my blog post.
The Ink & Inspiration Challenge is both an image and a color challenge. I was inspired by the trees and sun because I felt a feeling of serenity while I was looking at the image. The color combination is just gorgeous! Many of my faves!
How To
Measurements are at the end of the blog.
Start out with the One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper on the left. I thought it was a little barren. After looking through all my stamp sets, I found the perfect tree in the Grassy Grove stamp set.
Tear a piece of copy paper to make an uneven edge and use as a mask so that the trees appear further away. Stamp some trees in Starry Sky Ink. The mask also provides an edge to make a snow drift for the trees to be behind. Use a Small Blending Brush with the Starry Sky Ink and a light layer to make a soft snowdrift in front of the trees.
Diecut the sun with the smallest of the Deckled Circle Dies from a piece of full stick sticky paper. Tip: Diecut through 2 or more sticky sheets so that the top one will still have a full stick.
Apply a light layer of Crushed Curry Ink with a Small Blending Brush where you want the sun to be. Stick the sun mask on. Blend on more Crushed Curry Ink, then blend on a little Pumpkin Pie just around the edge.
To make the sun’s rays, use a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock and a Small Blending Brush. Apply a small amount of Crushed Curry Ink to the brush and very gently blend the color along the edge of the scrap of cardstock. Move the scrap a little and repeat until all the rays are done.
Add more trees in Mossy Meadow Ink and Blackberry Bliss Ink.
The sentiment is from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set. Stamp the sentiment for the front of the card in Starry Sky Ink onto a strip of Basic White cardstock measuring 5/8″ x 4 1/4″.
The clouds come from the Trucking Along stamp set and are stamped in Gray Granite Ink.
Use the torn piece of copy paper again to create the inside of the card. Stamp the trees that are in the background with Starry Sky Ink. Then as you move closer, stamp the trees in Mossy Meadow Ink then Blackberry Bliss Ink. Use a Small Blending Brush and a light layer of the Starry Sky Ink to make the snowdrifts.
Stamp the sentiments for the inside of the card in Starry Sky Ink.
Adhere all of the corresponding cardpieces. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the front panel.
Add Bling
Use the 2022-24 In Color Pearls for the Bling by applying 3 of the Starry Sky pearls.
Measurements
This is a 5″ x 7″ card.
Starry Sky cardstock card base: 7″ x 10″ scored at 5″.
Basic White cardstock: 4″ x 6″ and 5/8″ x 4 1/4″
One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper (DSP): 4″ x 6″
Blackberry Bliss cardstock: two at 4 1/4″ x 6 1/4″

Small Blending Brushes (at least 2 packs)
Real Red & Burlap Ribbon Combo Pack
Rustic Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots
Instructions
Blending the Flower Petals
Diecut the Deckled Circle from the Basic White cardstock.
Secure it to a piece of scrap paper with removable adhesive.
Secure the scrap paper to the work space with tape.
Lay the #1 Decorative Mask over your Deckled Circle cardpiece as desired. Take note of where the notch along the edge of the mask is. Use a pen to draw a line along that edge to help with placement of the next masks.
Secure the Decorative Mask with some removable tape (sticky note tape).
Use a Small Blending Brush and the Daffodil Delight Ink to apply ink along the tips of the flower petals. You can make this as light or as dark as you wish. See photo above on left.
Now use another Small Blending Brush and the Cajun Craze Ink. Apply a layer of ink around the center circle.
Lastly blend in Pumpkin Pie Ink with a third blending brush to complete the flower petals.
Carefully remove the mask without disturbing the cardpiece.
Blending the Leaves
Lay the #2 mask with the leaves by matching up the notch on the edge of the mask with the mark you made on the scrap paper.
Secure the mask with removable tape.
Use a clean Small Blending Brush to apply the Lemon Lime Twist Ink to the leaves first. Then apply the Parakeet Party Ink leaving a bit of the Lemon Lime Twist showing on the upper edge of each leaf.
Finish the leaf by blending in some of Granny Apple Green Ink along the bottom edge of each leaf.
Carefully remove the mask.
Blending the Center of the Flower
The last 2 masks will complete the center of the flower.
Lay mask # 3 over the card piece matching the notch. Secure it with the removable tape.
Use a Small Blending Brush to apply the Pecan Pie Ink.
Carefully remove mask #3.
Lay mask #4 over the card piece, matching the notch and securing it to the scrap paper.
Apply Early Espresso Ink.
Remove the mask.
Tip: Be sure to keep the masks away from your cardpieces as they will have residual ink on them. Rinse them in water. Use a mild soap if needed.
Blending the Flower for the Inside
Repeat the above process to blend on a small flower in the lower right-hand corner of the Basic White cardstock for the inside of the card.
Adhere this piece to the inside of the Cajun Craze cardstock card base.
Assemble the Card
Use the Deckled Circles Die to diecut from the Pumpkin Pie cardstock.
Adhere the Basic White cardstock card piece with the flowers on it to the Pumpkin Pie cardstock circle.
Position the circles on the front of the Cajun Craze cardstock card base and trim any excess that is on the left border.
Adhere this to the card base.
Use Early Espresso Ink and the “Hello” sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set to stamp onto the 2″ x 3″ Basic White cardstock. Diecut with the label die from the Autumn Leaves Dies. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment to the card front.
Tie a bow with the Burlap Ribbon and adhere to the card front with a few Mini Glue Dots.
Bling! Apply the Rustic Metallic Dots as desired.

Hello and welcome to a Sketch Challenge with Autumn Leaves Dies! I am Theresa McEntee, creator of Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts. Today I have the pleasure of participating in the Blog Hop with Around the World on Wednesday (AWOW) organized by Angie McKenzie.
On the second Wednesday of each month, the AWOW team put together a thematic hop to give you some inspiration for your own crafting. This Sketch Challenge and the question on whether to add a bow or not is this month’s theme.
I found this Sketch Challenge to be, well, challenging. I had fallen in love with the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper and Autumn Leaves Dies. So I decided to play around with the different designs and colors. I love the little leaves in the dies!
My Project for today
I chose this color combination to be in line with the colors in the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper-Moody Mauve and Pretty Peacock. I did make this card using Basic White cardstock, but in retrospect, I should have used Very Vanilla cardstock. If I make another card, I will use the Very Vanilla cardstock.

Instructions
Fold the Copper Clay cardstock card base in half and set aside.
Stamp the sentiment in Copper Clay Ink onto the 5/8″ x 2 3/4″ Very Vanilla cardstock. Cut the right-hand end into a banner.
Die cut all of the leaves, scalloped rectangles and the veins for the leaves.
Remove the protective backing on the Gold Glimmer Paper and adhere the veins to the corresponding leaves.
Adhere the Copper Clay/Foil scalloped rectangle to the front of the Copper Clay cardstock card base.
Stampin’ Dimensionals are used to adhere the Gold Foil scalloped rectangle to the card front.
Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue or the Stampin’ Seal to adhere the Very Vanilla cardstock scalloped rectangle to the Gold Foil layer.
Arrange the leaves on the Very Vanilla cardstock scalloped rectangle. I started with the Mossy Meadow/Foil leaves in the background. A Mini Stampin’ Dimensional was applied to the back of the tip of the right-hand Mossy Meadow/Foil leaf to raise it up a bit.
Add the Copper Clay/Foil leaf using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Slide the White/Foil leaves behind the Copper Clay/Foil leaf. Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals are on the back of the tip of each leaf.
Use a Stampin’ Dimensional on the back of the middle of the sentiment and glue on either end. Adhere to the card front. This gives the sentiment banner a wavy look.
To adhere the small Gold Glimmer Paper maple leaf, apply a Stampin’ Dimensional to it without removing the protective backing. Adhere to the left of the sentiment.
Make a small bow using the Gold & Vanilla 3/8″ Satin Edged Ribbon. Adhere to the card front using a Mini Glue Dot.
Complete the inside by adhering the 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ strip of the Copper Clay/Foil DSP to the right-hand side of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Very Vanilla cardstock. Adhere 2 oak leaves diecut from the Gold Glimmer Paper. Adhere the panel to the inside of the card base.
Voila!
