Thank you for joining me for our first Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator Monthly Team Blog Hop by Kylie and Bruno Bertucci for 2022! I am excited that you could join us today because I know you will get lots of ideas and creative inspiration to bring into the New Year! My Amazing Silhouettes Thank You Card is made using the Amazing Silhouettes and the Amazing Thanks Dies.
I belong to a group of Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from around the world that are taking part in training that is helping us to build a successful Stampin’ Up!® business. I am a Demonstrator in Arizona, USA. If you are not already an amazing demonstrator, or do not have a fabulous demonstrator and live in the USA, I would love to be your most awesome demonstrator! I really appreciate your support. Also, be sure to visit all the different blogs and see all the inspiring creations!
The theme for the cards today is: Thank You. I have many customers who support me and I like to send them a thank you card every once in awhile. The following set of cards is for my fabulous customers, which I will be sending to anyone who orders during the month of January 2022. You may order HERE. And if you join my Stamping Gems Team this month I will also send a FREE pack of the In Color Jewels!
For this card I chose to use the Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels for the Bling! The cool thing about the Iridescent Rhinestones is that they take on the color around them. So on green paper there is a blue and green sheen!
Thanks for joining me today on this Blog Hop. Be sure to visit the other blogs. You are currently at Theresa McEntee-USA.
I am so excited and thankful to be part of the Top 10 Winners Hop from Kylie Bertucci’s International Blog Highlight! Thank you to everyone who voted for my card from December’s International Blog Highlight, allowing me an opportunity to post on the Winners Hop. Ten fabulous demonstrators from around the world will be posting today! The theme for the card today is “Thank you”.
The “Thank You” sentiment I used is one of my favorite fonts. It is from the Pansy Patch stamp set.
I used the Masking Technique to get the thin rows of tulips in different colors. I also masked the windmill. The Blending Brushes take a while to get used to. I am just now feeling that the sky turned out the way I like it.
Still looking for a gift for the Holidays? Consider giving a gift card in a thank you note! This Snowflake Wishes Thank You Fun Fold Friday Gift Card Holder is a great gift for anyone who helps you out on a regular basis. For example, the young man who mows your lawn, the housekeeper, the bank teller, the mail/package delivery person, the grocery clerk- you get the idea. Everyone loves to be appreciated, especially during the holidays!

Stamping Your Own Designer Series Paper (DSP)
Start out by stamping the largest snowflake in Highland Heather Ink onto the 4 x 6 inch Highland Heather CS. Then Stamp Off once when stamping the next to the largest snowflake.
Next use the Gorgeous Grape Ink and the medium sized snowflakes to stamp in the empty spaces.
To finish this card piece, stamp in Misty Moonlight Ink using the group of tiny snowflakes. This may not look great at this point, but when it is cut up and adhered to the card it will look fantastic!
More Stamping
The next step is to stamp the front of the card. Start by using the Misty Moonlight Ink to stamp the sentiment “Thank You Snow Much” onto the 2 1/2 x 3 3/4 inch Basic White CS. Then Stamp Off once using the largest snowflake with Highland Heather Ink. Using the next to the largest snowflake, stamp at full strength using Highland Heather Ink.
Use the Gorgeous Grape Ink to stamp a medium sized snowflake around the edges.
Finish this card piece by stamping the group of medium snowflakes in Misty Moonlight Ink.
Use the Misty Moonlight Ink with the group of medium snowflakes to stamp around the upper left-hand corner of the 4 x 5 1/4 inch Basic White CS. This will be the inside of the card.
Assembling the Snowflake Wishes Thank You Gift Card Holder
The first step is to cut up the DSP that you made. Cut at 2 1/4 inches and 3 1/4 inches.
Fold the Gorgeous Grape CS card base at the 5 1/2 inch score line. Then fold at the 2 1/2 inch score line. Adhere the 2 3/4 x 4 inch DSP to the left and the 2 1/4 x 4 inch DSP to the right.
Adhere the 4 x 5 1/4 inch Basic White CS to the inside. Then adhere the 1 x 4 inch DSP to the right-hand side of the Basic White CS.
Punch the end with the Label Me Lovely Punch to create a notch.
Turn the card front over and apply Tear & Tape Adhesive to the upper and lower edges. Tip: Use the Take Your Pick tool to peel the protective cover off.
Fold the card front to adhere the edges and make the pocket for the gift card.
Adhere the Basic White CS card front to the corresponding Gorgeous Grape CS. Lay on the front of the card base to get positioning.
Tip: Flip the card front over to see where to adhere the Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Finishing Touches
Add a finishing touch by applying the Wonderful Snowflake.
And of course-add Bling! The Rhinestone Basic Jewels will add some extra sparkle!
Voila! Such a wonderful way to thank those around you!

Thank you for joining me for our last Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator Monthly Team Blog Hop for 2021! I am excited that you could join us today because I know you will get lots of ideas and creative inspiration to bring into the New Year! My Penguin Place Thank You Card is made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and the Blending Brushes.
I belong to a group of Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from around the world that are taking part in training that is helping us to build a successful Stampin’ Up!® business.

The theme for the cards today is: Thank You. I have many customers who support me and I like to send them a Thank You card every once in awhile. The following set of cards is for my fabulous customers which I will be sending to anyone who orders during the month of December 2021.
I had so much fun making the background for these thank you notes. I made 24 using different colors. To make all the penguins, I used the Stamparatus. It goes quickly that way! The “Thanks” sentiment is from the Simply Succulents stamp set.
I also used the snowflake mask and Blending Brush to add some snowflakes to the inside.
I hope you have an great end of 2021! An “Attitude of Gratitude” is very helpful at this time of year. Thank you so much for visiting today!
Today I am taking part in Kylie Bertucci’s Monthly International Blog Highlights Gallery. The theme is- Thank You. It is so important to thank those who inspire us. Those who help us out. Those who have our back.
On this gallery, you can see thank you cards made by people from all over the world! I hope you enjoy my Snowflake Wishes Thank You card and take the time to see everyone else’s inspiring creations by visiting the gallery. You can get to the gallery by selecting the “Vote For Me” button at the end of this blog.
The Thank You sentiment if from the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set. All of the stamped snowflakes are from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set. The Stampin’ Up! color is Pacific Point. I ended up with several packages of the Wonderful Snowflakes, so I really wanted to make a card with them.
Using the Blending Brushes
To create the background I used the Blending Brush with Pacific Point Ink on Basic White Card Stock (CS). A few tips:
Gently swirl the Blending Brush on the ink pad in a circular motion.
Touch your scrap paper before blending the color onto your Basic White CS.
Move the Blending Brush in a circular motion with light pressure, then medium pressure as the color leaves the brush.
Go slow to keep the color blending on smoothly. You will need many layers.
The Blending Brushes do take some practice. My goal is to eventually have a very smooth transition of color.
The Wonderful Snowflakes are super fun! When the light hits just right you see a rainbow!
I added lots of the Rhinestone Basic Jewels for sparkle! Voila! Such a pleasant Thank You card to send off!

It is gradually getting cooler here in Arizona, but I am not quite ready to show Christmas cards yet. Today I have a Fun Fold that I had my Stamping Gems Team members make as a Mystery Stamping activity.
Fun Fold Friday is on!
Mystery Stamping is a fun way to make cards together. You give the clues one by one. Each person picks the paper and stamp set they want to use. All of the cards are uniquely different. Usually you do not show the finished card until the end.
Clue #1 Supplies
Color Card Stock (CS) Color A: 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches with score lines at 2 1/8 and 6 3/8 inches. (This is the card base and it is in portrait orientation.) You also need a 3 x 2 inch piece.
Color CS Color B: choose a color to coordinate with Color A. Two 4 x 2 5/8 inches.
Designer Series Paper (DSP) to coordinate with the Color A and Color B CS. Two 3 3/4 x 2 3/8 inches.
Basic White CS: 2 3/4 x 1 3/4 inches and 5 1/4 x 4 inches.
A sentiment stamp to fit inside the 2 3/4 x 1 3/4 inch Basic White CS card piece.
Images to make a border around the sentiment and the inside of the card.
Coordinating ink, embellishments, adhesive and Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Clue #2
Stamp your sentiment onto the 2 3/4 x 1 3/4 inch Basic White CS. Stamp images around the sentiment.
Clue #3
Stamp the images around the outside edge of the 5 1/4 x 4 inch Basic White CS. Leave the center blank so one could write a note.
Clue #4
Adhere the sentiment to the 3 x 2 inch Color A CS. Adhere the 5 1/4 x 4 inch Basic White CS to the center panel of the 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch Color A CS.
Clue #5
Adhere the DSP to the Color B CS. Repeat for the other pieces. You should have two identical card pieces.
Clue #6
Bring the 2 side panels together so they meet in the center of the card. Apply adhesive to the back of the left half of one of the card pieces with the DSP on it. Adhere this to the top of the left-hand panel. Now apply adhesive to the back of the right side of the second DSP card piece. Adhere it to the bottom of the right-hand panel.
Clue # 7
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment to the center of the upper DSP card piece.
Clue #8
Use embellishments as desired.
Voila! That is the Mystery Stamping Fun Fold using the Artistically Inked stamp set and Expressions in Ink DSP! The Mystery Stamping is a really fun way for my Stamping Gems Team and me to stamp together as part of our monthly team meeting.

About the Daisy Punch Fall Thank You card
Fall is one of my favorite times of year. I just love all of the rich colors which inspired me to make this Daisy Punch Fall Thank You card. I made this card with the following Stampin’ Up! colors: Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Old Olive. The Regals Designer Series Paper Stack which contains all of these colors is great for the background. The strips each measure 3/8 inch in width.
You also will see several embellishments I used to make the Daisy Punch Fall Thank You card extra special. The vintage Diamond Weave Ribbon #156507 and the Brushed Metallic Dots #156506 can be found in the 2021 Stampin Up! July-December Mini Catalog. The colorful sequins are from the Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins #152477 and can be found in the Stampin’ Up! 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.
Voila! Such a lovely combination of fall colors in this Daisy Punch Fall Thank You card!

I am so honored and excited to be participating in today’s Top 10 Winners Hop for Bruno and Kylie Bertucci’s International Blog Highlights! I thank everyone who voted for my card in that hop. I combined a lot of elements to make this Gorgeous Leaves Thank You card. Saying “Thank you” is so important! You can never have enough Thank You cards. I am so excited to see everyone else’s projects too!
I primarily used the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set and Intricate Leaves Dies. Additional stamp sets used for this card included: Very Versailles (the background script) and Pansy Patch (Thank You sentiment). The label for the sentiment is from the Harvest Dies.
I took full advantage on the many fall colors Stampin’ Up!® has. The colors I used for this card are: Bumblebee, Soft Suede, Early Espresso, Cinnamon Cider, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive.
Although they are difficult to see in this photo, the Genial Gems add a little sparkle to the Gorgeous Leaves Thank You card.

Welcome to Theresa’s Treasures today for my Thank You card using the Harvest Meadow Suite Collection #156280, which is now available for purchase from the 2021 Stampin’ Up! July-December Mini Catalog. I am Theresa and I am an Independent Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator in Arizona, USA. If you do not have a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, live in the US, and would like a copy of the catalog, please send a request to my email: theresastreasures.az@gmail.com.

I hope you enjoy my card and take the time to see everyone else’s inspiring creations by visiting the gallery. You can get to the gallery by selecting the “Vote For Me” button at the end of this blog.
My goal for this card was to use all of the elements in the Harvest Meadow Suite Collection. The stamp set is Nature’s Harvest and the coordinating dies are the Harvest Dies. You can purchase these together with a 10% discount by ordering the Nature’s Harvest Bundle #156813.
The background is the Harvest Meadow 12 x 12 inch Designer Series Paper #156494 which was embossed with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder #156505 on a Very Vanilla Card Stock (CS) card base. I used the Stitched Rectangle dies to cut the Cork 12 x 12 Specialty Paper #156393. The cork card piece behind the sentiment is the center of the rectangle frame. A Cinnamon Cider CS Stitched Rectangle is the background for the flowers. The flowers and sentiment are stamped in the Saddle Brown Stazon Ink so that I could use the Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers for coloring. The colors of the Stampin’ Blends are: Light Pumpkin Pie, Dark So Saffron and Light Soft Succulent.
