Stampin’ Up! Blog Hop: Out with the Old . . .

stampin up stampinup stamping pretty blog hop

Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for May where we are preparing for the retirement of some Stampin’ Up! products.  Though it may be goodbye to some very loved supplies, it will make room for the much anticipated new catalog products.  We hope you enjoy the Pals’ creative projects.

You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Angela Curry at Kindred Stampers, number 26 on the Pals Hop.  If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects.

This bright and happy birthday card highlights items from the Stampin’ Up! Retiring Products List & Sale and is headed to my grand nephew, Samuel.   No worries–Zoo Babies stamp set (rhino) is not retiring!  It’s one of my favorites for babies and kids!

STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:

  • I used the retiring Starburst Framelits Dies (5 layering dies) to crop Whisper White and Daffodil Delight layers.  They remind me of gears!

  • Love that font!  The sentiment is from retiring So Very Happy stamp (see all  So Very Happy stamp images in my supplies recipe below).
  • The primary colors of Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Pacific Point are perfect for boy or girl.

  • A Real Red heart and Pacific Point Candy Dot (Brights Candy Dots) are popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals for a 3-D effect.

The next stop is Denise Hoepfner at The Mountain Magpie, number 28 on the Pals Blog Hop!  Thanks for visiting; I hope to see you on next month’s Pals Hop!

  1. Fun! Fun! Fun! Love the bright colors. Super cute Mary. You always make card designs look so easy; it seems to take me forever to come up with a design layout.

    • Thanks, Kalyn! I wanted to work with the Starburst dies and loved how they played into this design

    • Thanks so much, Natalie. It’s good for me to work with primary colors and turned into a lot of fun to share with Samuel

  2. This card is BEYOND FUN! Makes me smile just looking at it……Can only image the ‘happy’ on someone’s face when they receive it. WELL DONE my friend!

  3. Hello Mary: I just love this set, all the images are just so darn cute, you can make all kinds of cards for babies, kids and baby showers with it.
    Your card is fabulous, this colors are so bright and fun together, the design is amazing too, love the sweet detail of the little heart with the candy dot.
