Hope you are enjoying the great inspiration from Team Stamp It. I'm here to share a fun Father's Day card using the 2025-2027 In-Colors. While I have chosen some more generic masculine sentiments for these cards they can be used for so many different occassions.

I think these year's in-colors are perfect for the sunset look I am going for here. I was inspired by a card I saw from Laura Becham, but I of course changed it up a bit as I was going along! I added a bit of Cloud Cover Stampin Blends on the bottom of the clouds to give them an extra umph!

Here's another option using this beautiful 3D embossing folder and die (Hybrid Folder) and some B side of the Thoughtful Journey DSP. It’s perfect for this background with just a super easy blending. I love the monochromatic look. I stamped the sailboat on both cards with the new Secret Sea ink- a perfect dark navy.

Congrats to last month's winner Karen

Mother's Day Blog Hop

Welcome to this month's blog hop. I hope that you are enjoying all the inspiration from Team Stamp It. I love all the beautiful Mother's Day card inspiration. The new Greetings ephemera pack is great - this is the second time I have used it for a Blog Hop because its so versatile! I am also using DSP called Celebratory Sips which will be in new Online Exclusives starting May 6th.

However I would not wait till then as Stampin' Up is running my favorite type of Sale - Free Shipping for any order over $75! Don't wait as this end on Friday 12AM MST!

I added an embossed panel (Glass & Gardens slim embossing folder duos available in May) on the inside of my card and hand cut a few of the tiny flowers from the Celebratory Sips. The beautiful Gold Striped Ribbon and Holgraphic Dots are also in the upcoming Annual Catalog.

Now hop through the rest of the blogs and leave a comment with #teamstampit (and leave your name please!) for a chance to win.
