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. Please stop by and visit everyone!
The Ink & Inspiration Challenge this month is both an sketch & a color challenge. I was inspired by the sketch primarily because I was already playing with the Translucent Florals Bundle and I could envision using the images in the sketch. This bundle can be found in the Stampin’ Up! 2023 Holiday Mini Catalog.
And this bundle has a coordinating Designer Series Paper (DSP) only available in the Online Exclusives. The Delightful Floral DSP has vibrant colors and gorgeous designs. I also couldn’t wait to try out the Online Exclusive Gold Adhesive-Backed Glimmer Paper!
These colors & designs just make me smile. I love flowers and plants. My house is filled with plants and my front yard is filled with flowers!
The Gold Adhesive-Backed Glimmer Paper was so easy to use. Stamping the flowers on vellum cardstock was a little tricky. Using the Heat Tool to help set the ink helped. Also using tweezers to move the flowers helped me avoid getting ink on my fingers, too much! Later I learned a Hot Tip from my Accountability Partner, Christy Gridley, that using Clear Emboss Powder over the ink makes it so you won’t get the ink all over the place.
For the inside, I stamped the images on Basic White cardstock. Much easier!
If you would like more information on how to make this card for yourself, let me know in the comments.
Please visit everyone’s blog for awesome project ideas!
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 image because I had been wanting to use the Paper Florist Dies. These dies do not have a corresponding stamp set but they are loads of fun on their own!
The colors were also very inspirational. I love flowers. The combination of colors for this challenge brought to mind several different types of flowers I am fond of. Tiger Lillies and roses are two of them.
My goal was to make the flowers as real as possible. I tried several ways to color the flowers after diecutting them. I used Blending Brushes, Sponge Daubers and Stampin’ Write Markers. You may enjoy trying to make flowers you like!
The inside of the card needed a pretty flower. The Artistically Inked stamp set had a rose that I liked. I stamped it in Flirty Flamingo Ink. The leaves are stamped in Granny Apple Green Ink and Garden Green Ink. (I may have overdone the leaves! Lol!)
I found that making the flowers was very relaxing. It really did not take long to diecut the pieces. I hope you give the Paper Florist Dies a go!
Today I have a beautiful Inked & Tiled “just a note” Card!

Paper Snips
Wink of Stella
Stampin’ Dimensionals
Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine
I was interested in a blue moth and found several awesome photos on Google. I combined elements of the 2 moths above to create the moth on the Night of Flight Thank You card.
Instructions
Stamp the large moth in Memento Ink onto the Basic White cardstock.
Stamp the inside of the wings in Azure Afternoon ink.
Use the Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to draw the “eyes” on the wings.
Use the Stampin’ Blends to color the wings.
Fussy cut the moth with the Paper Snips. Use the bone folder to slightly curve the wings and set aside.
Use the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder to emboss the Copper Clay cardstock.
Lightly drag the Copper Clay Ink Pad over the embossed Copper Clay cardstock with the raised side up. This adds dimension to the brick wall.
Cut the Crumb Cake cardstock into 3/4″ x 2″ and 1″ x 2″ strips.
Use the Copper Clay Ink to stamp the sentiment “thanks” onto the 3/4″ x 2″ strip.
Place the 3 Crumb Cake cardstock strips in the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
Cut the 1″ x 2″ embossed Crumb Cake cardstock strip into a 1″ x 1 1/2″ piece. Then cut in half so you get two 1/2″ x 1 1/2″ pieces to use for the posts of the sign.
Die cut 3 leaves with the Cheerful Daisies Dies from the 3″ x 4″ Mossy Meadow cardstock.
Adhere the Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base.
Now adhere the embossed Copper Clay cardstock to the front of the card base.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the moth.
Glue the sign posts to the Thanks sign and adhere to the card front.
Add the Mossy Meadow cardstock diecut leaves.
For some extra sparkle, brush on the Wink of Stella to the moth’s wings.

Basic White card stock (cs) card base: 4 1/4 x 11 inches with a score line at 5 1/2 inches
Basic White cs: 2 x 2 inches (to stamp & die cut the sentiment), 3 x 3 inches (to die-cut the stitched circle) and enough scrap to stamp all of the images on
Calypso Coral cs: 4 x 5 1/4 inches
Petal Pink cs: 1 1/4 x 3 3/4 inches (to die cut the banner) and 2 1/4 x 5 1/8 inches
Adhesives: Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin Dimensionals & Mini Glue Dots
Instructions
I recommend using the Stamparatus for Two-Step Stamping. I find it is much easier to line up the second stamp. Each flower is a Two-Step Stamp. Stamp the larger part of the flower in Petal Pink Ink first. Then stamp the detailed stamp in Calypso Coral. The small bunch of flowers is stamped in Fresh Freesia Ink first. Then stamped in Blackberry Bliss Ink. Use the Blackberry Bliss Stampin’ Write Marker to draw the center of each of the Petal Pink flowers.
Next, stamp the “Thank You” sentiment in Blackberry Bliss Ink. Die cut the sentiment using the Something Fancy Dies.
Use the Stylish Shapes Dies to die cut the 2 1/2 inch stitched circle and the banner.
Use the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to emboss the 4 x 5 1/4 inch Calypso Coral cs with the Cane Weave Embossing Folder
Adhere the Cane Weave card piece to the front of the Basic White cs card base.
Adhere the Dandy Designs DSP to the 2 1/4 x 5 1/8 inch Petal Pink cs. Then adhere this to the left side of the card front.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment.
Adhere the Petal Pink cs banner. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the Basic White cs stitched circle.
Place the flowers as desired. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals on some flowers. Add the leaves.
Color the White Seam Binding Ribbon with the Dark Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blend Alcohol Marker. Tie into a bow. Adhere to the card front with a Mini Glue Dot.
Bling! Use the Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots in Petal Pink to add Bling! to the card front.
Voila!
Experiment with different colors to see which one you like best!

3. Cut out the leaves as shown above from the Crushed Curry, Mossy Meadow and Cajun Craze cs.
4. Stamp the 4 x 5 1/4 inch Basic White cs as shown below. Adhere this to the inside of the Merry Merlot cs card base.

5. Adhere the butterfly piece to the center of the card front. Then adhere the Merry Merlot cs frame around the butterfly piece. Next adhere the two Mossy Meadow leaf sprigs as shown.
6. Finish up by adhering the remaining leaves. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment. Add some Gold Adhesive-Backed Swirls.
Welcome to the monthly Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop showcasing the Season in Chic Bundle. The stamp set is Season of Chic and the dies are Chic Dies. They come as a Bundle which saves you 10%. You can shop at my Online Store HERE.

Welcome to the monthly Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop showcasing my Trees for Sale Whimsical Christmas Card. This month the theme is “Christmas in July”. The stamp set I chose for this card is Trees for Sale. I also used the Whimsical Woodland 3D Embossing Folder and the Fabulous Frame Dies.

Trees for Sale Whimsical Christmas Card
Instructions for the Trees for Sale Whimsical Christmas Card
Step 1- 3D Technique
Start by using the White Craft Ink pad to drag it across both Shaded Spruce card stock card pieces embossed with the Whimsical Woodland 3D embossing folder. The “before and after” is pictured above. The White Craft Ink really helps the tree design pop! Set aside to dry.
Step 2-Stamping with Stampin’ Up! Masking Paper
Take the center out of both of the Basic White card stock Fabulous Frame die cuts to stamp on.
Use Soft Suede Ink to stamp the “trees for sale” sign on one of the Basic White card stock card pieces. Stamp a sign on a piece of the Masking Paper. (I used a pink sticky note so you could see what I was masking a little better)
Fussy cut the sign from the Masking Paper. Cover the trees for sale sign on the stamped card piece with the Masking Paper sign.
Use Mint Macaron Ink to stamp the solid small and medium sized trees.
Stamp a small tree on the Masking Paper and fussy cut it.
Use Shaded Spruce to stamp the detailed tree on the small tree only.
Cover the small tree with the tree you cut from the Masking Paper.
Step 3-More Masking
Use Shaded Spruce ink to stamp the detailed tree on all the medium trees.
Remove the Masking Paper from the small tree and the Trees for Sale sign.
Step 4-Stamping the Scene
Use Memento Ink to stamp the string of lights. Color the lights with Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers.
Stamp some snowflakes and the paw prints in Balmy Blue Ink.
On a scrap of Basic White card stock, stamp the dog in Soft Suede Ink. Use the Stampin’ Write Basic Black Marker to add some eyes, a nose and some spots to the dog. Fussy cut. (I cut the bottom jaw off because my dog did not look right with the jaw on)
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the dog to the scene.
Stamp the sentiment “Christmas Greetings” in Real Red Ink on the 3/4 x 3 inch Basic White card stock strip.
Step 5-Stamping the Inside
On the second Basic White card stock Fabulous Frame die cut, stamp “so very merry” in Real Red Ink.
Stamp the snowflakes in Balmy Blue Ink.
Step 6-Assembling the Inside
Assemble the inside of the card. Adhere one of the Shaded Spruce card stock embossed with the Whimsical Woodland embossing folder to the inside of the Mint Macaron card stock card base.
Adhere the stamped Basic White card stock.
Complete the inside by adhering the Real Red card stock Fabulous Frame die cut.
Step 7-Assembling the Card Front
Adhere the second embossed Shaded Spruce card stock card piece to the front of the Mint Macaron card stock card base.
Adhere the stamped Basic White card stock scene to the card front.
Add the Real Red card stock Fabulous Frame die cut.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment.
Embellish with the Real Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels.
Voila!
