Too Cool Stamping

Wishes & Wonder Bundle (English)

________________________________________________________________

Wishes & Wonder Deer Card

The Wishes & Wonder Bundle is perfect for collage-style card like this one I received from Laura Milligan! So many layers; so much detail...and so many retiring items on one card! Let's take a closer look...

Background Basics—Laura started by adhering two 5-1/2" x 1" strips of retiring Wonder of The Season Specialty Designer Series Paper along the top and bottom of a Thick Whisper White card base. Next, she embossing a 5-1/2" x 3" piece of Whisper White with the retiring Wrapped In Texture Mini Embossing Folder. She finished the background with a 5-1/2" x 1" strip of a Sahara Sand pattern from retiring Plaid Tidings DSP.

Medallion Accent—Laura die-cut some retiring Brushed Metallic cardstock with the retiring North Pole Wonder Dies and added some Pretty Peacock die-cut sprigs from the same collection. It's topped with a gold cord bow from the retiring Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack.

Finishing Touches—The Wishes & Wonder sentiment is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink onto a 3" x 3/4" piece of Whisper white. Laura finished up the card by stamping the Wishes & Wonder deer in Sahara Sand ink, die-cutting it and popping it up with Dimensionals. It's accented with one retiring Wonderful Gem.

Wishes & Wonder Sleigh Card

I received a second swap card, without a name attached, also featuring the Wishes & Wonder Bundle and a collage-style design. This one also has some elements from the Poinsettia Place suite.

Background Basics—This card begins with a Poinsettia Petals greeting stamped in Crumb Cake onto a 5" x 3-3/4" piece of Whisper White. It's layered onto a 5-1/4" x 4" piece of Shaded Spruce and mounted onto a Crumb Cake card base. A 5" x 1" 'retiring Tis The Season DSP strip was layered onto a 5" x 1-1/4" piece of Shaded Spruce and adhered to the bottom of the card.

Focal Point—The cute tag is die-cut from the North Pole Wonder Dies using the retiring Wonder of The Season DSP. It's topped with a retiring Real Red Sheer Ribbon bow. The Wishes & Wonder sleigh image was stamped in Crumb Cake ink onto Crumb Cake cardstock and die-cut. Behind it are two Shaded Spruced stamped Poinsettia Petals leaves, die-cut with the Poinsettia Dies. There is also a Gold Foil sprig die-cut from the same set.

The sleigh is decorated on top with two Cherry Cobbler die-cut poinsettia flowers layered and topped with a Gilded Gem. So, so lovely! I wish I knew who created it!

Don't Stop Believin' Frosty Cocoa Card

I received this adorable card from Sandra Risi and I just love it! Light-hearted and fun...just what's needed this holiday season!

Background Basics—Sandra began by embossing a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Seaside Spray cardstock with the retiring Winter Snow Embossing Folder and brushing on a coat of Wink of Stella glimmer to make it super-sparkly! It's mounted to a Thick Whisper White card base. She die-cut a Stitched Rectangles foundation layer in Real Red, then a focal point layer in Whisper White.

Frosty Focal Point—Sandra stamped the Don't Stop Believin' snowman and sentiment image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on the rectangle die-cut, then colored in the image with Stampin' Blends Markers. She used Basic Black, Seaside Spray, Old Olive and Real Red for the hat; Black for the arms, Pumpkin Pie for the nose; and Real Red and Soft Suede for the mug. She also added Wink of Stella to the melted snow.

Finishing Touches—She tied some retiring Real Red Sheer Ribbon around the focal point layer before popping it up with Dimensionals.

Festive Post Enjoy This Season Card

Connie Babbert created this sweet Christmas swap card featuring the retiring Festive Post seasonal-themed stamp set. This set has images from Halloween through Valentine's Day and coordinates with the Postage Stamp Punch.

Background Basics—Connie began by adhering a 2" x 5" piece of retiring Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper to a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Next, she stamped the Festive Post greeting in Real Red next to the DSP layer and adhered it onto a Pear Pizzazz card base. She finished by adding a 1/2" Mossy Meadow strip across the card front, trimming the ends flush with the edges of the card. I love this unexpected & fun element!

Focal Point—Connie stamped the Festive Post card image in Memento Black ink onto Whisper White cardstock, then stamped the tree fill images in Old Olive ink. She added a little Light Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends Marker shadow under the car. The image is punched out with the Postage Stamp Punch and popped up onto a 2-1/2" x 1-7/8" piece of Real Red cardstock, which is popped up, too! She finished with a red ornament on top of the tree, courtesy of the All The Trimmings Embellishments. How cute!

Arrange A Wreath Christmas Cards

Hi Stamping Friends!

Have you check out the Retiring List lately? The products are starting to sell out, so don't delay if there is anything you want to get your hands on before it's gone!

Tomorrow is the final day to register for my Happiest of Birthdays 10-Card Class. Details are below!

Today, I'm sharing a couple of pretty Christmas cards sent to me from a couple of Too Cool Team members.

Shipping & Mailing Delays: Just a reminder that USPS and UPS are having LOTS of delays right now. I'm getting many inquiries every day about both orders and kits that haven't yet arrived as expected. We're seeing unprecedented times and it's so very frustrating, but it's the reality. I'm happy to track your order (UPS) and your larger class kits (USPS Priority), if you're concerned. My LIVE Class Kits are sent out First Class Mail, so I have no way to track those. We'll just have to wait and see how it all shakes out. I appreciate your patience.

Arrange A Wreath Bundle (English)

________________________________________________________________

Janet's Arrange A Wreath Plaid Greetings Card

I received this pretty card from team member Janet Shinn. Oooh, I love that Build A Wreath die-cut & layered wreath! So pretty and so easy to assemble!

Background Basics—Janet began her card with a 5" x 3-3/4" piece of the black & white retiring Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper. It's layered onto a 5-1/4" x 4" piece of Cherry Cobbler and mounted onto a Thick Whisper White card base.

Wonderful Wreath—Janet used the Build A Wreath dies to die-cut a Cherry Cobbler wreath layer and a Shaded Spruce wreath layer. She adhered them to the card front with Liquid Multipurpose Glue. She also die-cut a couple of pretty poinsettia shapes with the same dies and attached them with more Liquid Glue.

Finishing Touches—The Arrange A Wreath sentiment was stamped in VersaMark Ink onto a 2-1/2" x 1" piece of Cherry Cobber cardstock, then heat-embossed with White Stampin' Emboss Powder. Janet fishtail cut the end and popped it up with Dimensionals. She finished by adding several Gold Glitter Enamel Dots around the wreath and next to the sentiment. So, so pretty!

Kathe's Arrange A Wreath Gift Card Holder

Kathe Madsen created this holiday card as part of our team gift card holder swap. It's simple & stunning with the gold wreath.

Background Basics—This gift card holder starts with an 11" x 4-1/4" piece of Real Red cardstock, scored at the 1-3/4" and 5-1/2" marks. She decorated the front with a 3-1/2" x 4" piece of retiring Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper.

Wonderful Wreath—Kathe die-cut the Brushed Gold Metallic wreath with the Wreath Builder Dies and adhered them with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. She attached a retiring Real Red Braided Trim bow to the top with a Glue Dot.

Sweet Sentiment—Kathe stamped the Arrange a Wreath greeting in Real Red ink onto a Whisper White Stitched So Sweetly scallop rectangle die-cut and popped it up with Dimensionals.

Inside The Card—The card front panel was folded and adhered on the side to create a gift card holder pocket. She used a circle punch to create a little notch to help recipients pull out the gift card. Kathe also added a 5-1/4" x 4" piece of Whisper White cardstock for the message and decorated it with a 2" x 4" piece of Poinsettia Place DSP. The sentiment is from the retiring Wrapped In Christmas stamp set. Lovely!

NEW Products Sneak Peeks & NEW Paper Share Info!

Hi Stamping Friends!

I had a lot of fun this morning on my very special Facebook LIVE video!

Both of those promotions begin on January 5, 2021! If you missed the LIVE video, you can watch the replay linked below.

Why Wait For New Products? If you don't want to wait to order the awesome new products, you don't have to! You can simply join the Too Cool Stampers Team and you can pre-order all Mini Catalog items at 20% off and starting earning your FREE Sale-a-Bration items right away! You can even select any of the new items for your $99 Starter Kit! Learn more at Join My Team.

I'm so excited to once again offer a fun & affordable way for you to be able to try ALL of the awesome Designer Series Papers** from the 2021 Jan-Jun Mini Catalog! Plus, you'll also receive 18 samples from the DSP packs from the Sale-a-Bration flyer! That's 69 sample papers, with 18 FREE additional papers, plus a bonus Love You Always Treat Box! Wow! 88 pieces in all!

I Want It All, Right Now! If you're like me, you can't wait to get your hands on every style of DSP to see it in person and start using it on your projects! But, purchasing full packs of all the paper styles is much too costly for one person, especially when you have lots of other new stamps and accessories on your Wish List! Right?!

Mini Catalog Paper Share To The Rescue! I'm organizing a 2021 Jan-Jun Mini Catalog Paper Share, so that groups of eight people can split the cost and enjoy the full selection of NEW Designer Series Paper patterns right away, at a price that is very affordable!

Variety & Value! If you were to purchase each DSP pack yourself, it would cost more than $175 with tax & shipping! With the Mini Catalog Paper Share, you'll get all varieties to create with right away, at a fraction of the price, then order more of the styles you like most later on! Plus, you'll have samples of the Sale-a-Bration papers, too!

**Berry Delightful DSP not included, since it's part of a bundle.

Happiest of Birthdays Joy Fold Cards

Hi Stamping Friends!

I have two final cards to share with you from the Happiest of Birthdays LIVE Class! Today is the last day to earn the FREE 5-Card LIVE kit, and registration for the 10-Card Kit will remain open until December 20. Get all the details linked below!

But first, a few house-keeping notes...

131888809_3790731657611788_6800864168577373001_n

Expect Long Delays For Class Kits—The USPS is expecting unprecedented volume this holiday season due to a large increase in online purchases and, likely, a shortage of workers due to Covid-related absences. I've been receiving an extraordinary amount of inquiries about my class kits not arriving when expected, and those packages that can be tracked have confirmed that delays of 5-12 days are certainly happening. Please be patient as you wait for your class kits.

LIVE Class Holiday Schedule—I'll be taking some time off for the holidays, so here are some changes to the LIVE Classes schedule:

December 17—Sneak Peek of NEW Mini Catalog Products & Paper Share info!
December 24—No LIVE Class...Merry Christmas!
December 31—No LIVE Class...Happy New Year!

Whisper White Being Replaced By Basic White—Stampin' Up! announced that our amazing Whisper White cardstock will be replaced by a new paper called Basic White. Unfortunately, the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.

"We know Whisper White has a huge fan base; we’re big fans, too! And we are crushed that it’s going away. Even though this decision was out of our hands, rest assured that we jumped right into action to find the best replacement paper possible. We have dedicated many hours to source and test alternative cardstock options from several suppliers to find the perfect fit that still maintains the Stampin’ Up! quality you know and trust. We are happy to share that we have found a winner for our new cardstock, Basic White!

The quality of our new Basic White was thoroughly tested by our quality assurance and product teams. It also tested very well with demonstrators and concept artists who gave it a huge thumbs up. We believe in the quality of the new Basic White cardstock and we know it will become your new crafting staple!"

All Whisper White items are now "while supplies last" with a limit of 2. Print out a flyer with a complete list of affected products.

Happiest of Birthdays joy fold - two cool

Happiest Birthday Joy Fold Cards

These fun-fold cards are sure to bring joy to the recipient on their special day! The cards are created by combining two card bases that overlap each other, folding this way and that way! Notice that you can make the card front open to the left or to the right, depending on how you lay it out.

Happiest of Birthdays joy fold - seafoam

Background Basics—Start by cutting two Soft Sea Foam card bases: 4-1/4" x 8-3/4", scored at the 5-1/2" mark and 8-1/2" x 3", scored at the 4-1/4" mark. Next, I adhered a 4-1/2" x 3-1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock in the center of the inside of the larger card base. This one will open left-to-right. I added a 3" x 4" piece of Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper to the front flap of that card base.

For the smaller card base, which will open right-to-left, I adhered another Forever Greenery piece measuring 4" x 2-3/4". This card base is mounted onto the Whisper White piece.

Happiest of Birthdays joy fold - seafoam 3

You can see in this photo how the two card bases will overlap and interlock.

Happiest of Birthdays joy fold - seafoam 2

Sweet Sentiment—The Happiest of Birthdays sentiment is the focal point of this fancy card. I stamped one of the sentiments in Pretty Peacock ink onto a Whisper White Hippo & Friends die-cut label. I added a 4-1/4" x 3/4" strip of Old Olive cardstock across the card front, then popped up the label with Dimensionals.

Finishing Touches—I added a couple of Shaded Spruce Holiday Rhinestone Jewels on the Old Olive strip for some sparkle.

Happiest of Birthdays joy fold - vanilla

Two Cool—The second version begins with a Thick Very Vanilla two-part card base. I assembled it with the opening going in the opposite direction of the first card. The larger card base has a 3" x 4" piece of Very Vanilla textured with the Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folder. The smaller card base has a piece of Poinsettia Place DSP for a wintery look.

Happiest of Birthdays joy fold - vanilla 2

Finishing Touches—This time, the strip across is in Bumblebee cardstock and the sentiment is stamped in matching Soft Suede ink. I added frosted Elegant Faceted Gems on the strip, which also adds to the wintery look!

Create the first card as part of my 5-Card LIVE Class Kit and the make both with my 10-Card complete Happiest of Birthdays Class Kit.

Inspiring Iris Wishing You The Best Cards

This pretty two-step stamp set is carrying over into the new catalog and I'm so glad! I love that the filler images do not exactly match the outline images, so it's meant to not be perfect! It gives the feeling of a watercolor effect. Too Cool! Supplies for both of today's cards are included in this week's LIVE Class Kit!

Background Basics—I started by adhering a 4" x 2-1/2" piece of Brights Designer Series Paper onto the top of an Old Olive card base. Next, I embossed a 4" x 2-3/4" piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock with the new Tasteful Textile Folder. I finished up the background by stamping the Inspiring Iris decorative border image in Bermuda Bay ink across a 4" x 3/4" strip of Coastal Cabana.

Inspiring Iris Wishing You The Best - bermuda 2

Focal Point—I stamped the Inspiring Iris outline image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a cool new Tasteful Labels die-cut. This one should be a must-have on your Catalog Wish List! I used the coordinating filler images to stamp the flowers in Bermuda Bay and the leaves in Pear Pizzazz. I finished up by giving the flowers a little brush of Wink of Stella glimmer. The label is popped up with Dimensionals.

Inspiring Iris Wishing You The Best - bermuda 3

Sweet Sentiment—I created this partial label with the new Lovely Labels Pick A Punch! It features two cool shapes that you can punch on strips of cardstock that are either 1", 3/4" or 1/2" wide! It's another awesome tool that you'll definitely want in your collection! I punched the end of a 3/4" strip of Whisper White, stamped the Inspiring Iris sentiment in black, then trimmed the other side flush with the edge. It's popped up and accented with a single Gingham Gala Adhesive Backed Sequin, and these will be retiring.

Inspiring Iris Wishing You The Best - grape

Two Cool—My second card begins with a Purple Posy DSP layer, Gorgeous Grape embossed layer and Pear Pizzazz stamped border layer, all mounted to a Highland Heather card base.

Inspiring Iris Wishing You The Best - grape 2

Botanical prints peacock decorative corners 1

Botanical Prints Decorative Corners Thank You Card

The Botanical Prints dies includes two intricate corner dies that add a bit of elegance and texture to your cards! I love them as a pretty backdrop for focal point images!

Background Basics—I started with shortened Pretty Peacock card base: 5-1/2" x 7-1/2" and scored at the 4-1/4" mark. I added a 5-1/2" x 3-1/4" piece of Botanical Prints Designer Series Paper on the card front and a 5-1/2" x 1" strip of the striped DSP along the inside bottom. I also tied some of the pretty Old Olive Twine Ribbon from the medley around the card front.

Botanical prints peacock decorative corners 2

Focal Point—The backdrop starts with a 3-1/4" x 3-1/4" square of Old Olive cardstock. Then, I die-cut two Basic Black decorative corners and added them with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I used Tear & Tape Adhesive to securely attach the layer onto the card front so that it would hang over the edge.

I attached the two pre-printed die-cut images with SNAIL Adhesive. Then, I stamped the Botanical Prints greeting in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a pre-printed label from the medley and popped it up with Dimensionals. Another sweet & simple card from this amazing suite!

Botanical Prints Decorative Corners Friend Card

I CASEd one of the projects shown in the Mini Catalog for this cute card! I love those decorative corner die-cuts creating a pretty frame!

Background Basics—I layered a 5-1/2" x 2-3/4" strip of the Botanical Prints DSP across a Whisper White Thick card base and tied some ribbon around the card front like the first card.

Botanical prints crushed curry decorative corners 2

Cute Corners—I layered four Crushed Curry corner die-cuts onto a 3-1/2" x 3/1/2" square of Whisper White cardstock and mounted it to a 3-3/4" x 3-3/4" piece of Terracotta Tile. It's adhered to the card front with Tear & Tape.

Floral Focal Point—I stamped the floral images in Memento Black, colored them with Petal Pink, Calypso Coral and Old Olive Stampin' Blends Markers, die-cut them and added them with SNAIL.

Sweet Sentiment—I stamped the greeting in Terracotta Tile ink onto a Whisper White Stitched Shapes circle. I adhered a 2" x 1/2" strip of Old Olive cardstock with fishtail cut ends to the back of the circle, then popped it up with Dimensionals.

Botanical Prints I'm Here For You Card

I created this lovely Botanical Prints card in just minutes with the awesome coordinated products in the medley! The only thing I stamped is the greeting. Easy peasy!

Background Basics—I layered a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of the lemon pattern Botanical Prints Designer Series Paper onto a 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" Basic Black mat, then mounted it onto a Thick Whisper White card base. Then, I layered the 3-3/4" x 2" piece of black & white DSP onto a 3-3/4" x 2-1/4" piece of Old Olive cardstock and mounted that on the lower half.

Focal Point—I stamped the Botanical Prints sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black onto one of the pre-printed die-cuts from the medley and popped it up with Dimensionals. The lemon branch is also a pre-printed die-cut, popped up. So sweet & simple!

Botanical Prints Lemon Squares Card

I love combining some of my leftover DSP scraps to create a fun background on cards. This cool squares design makes a lovely backdrop for spotlighting the lemon branch.

Background Basics—This card begins with a vertically-folded Crushed Curry card base; 4-1/4" x 11", scored at 5-1/2". I added a 4" x 2" strip of DSP across a 4" x 5-1/4" layer of Whisper White and mounted that onto the card front.

Lemon Squares—I cut 1-1/2" squares from two Botanical Prints DSP patterns and mounted those onto a 3-1/4" x 3-1/4" square of Basic Black to add to the card front. I used another pre-printed lemon branch die-cut to decorate an Old Olive Stitched Shapes circle die-cut and both are popped up with Dimensionals.

Finishing Touches—I tied some of the Old Olive Twill Ribbon, included in the medley, around the card front. Then, I stamped the sentiment in Old Olive ink onto a pre-printed label and popped it up, too. So bright & cheery for a friend!

Botanical Prints Thank You Kindly Circle Card

I designed the cards in the Botanical Prints class to be quick & easy with a lot of style! I love the sleek and simple layout for this one black, white & Terracotta Tile card!

Background Basics—I started by adhering a 2" x 5-1/2" piece of the black & white Botanical Prints Designer Series Paper onto a Thick Whisper White card base. I added a 4-1/4" x 1-1/4" strip of Basic Black cardstock across the bottom.

Focal Point—I die-cut a Stitched Shapes circle from the Botanical Prints DSP and mounted it onto the card front with SNAIL adhesive. Next, I stamped the Botanical Prints floral image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Whisper White cardstock, die-cut it with the coordinating dies from the medley, then popped it up with Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment in Memento Black onto a pre-cut, pre-printed label from the medley and popped that up, too!

Botanical Prints 5-Strips Friend Card

I quickly discovered that you can create about a gazillion cards with the 48 sheets of Designer Series Paper in the Botanical Prints Product Medley. That's especially true if you use up all the little leftover strips to make a super-cute background!

Background Basics—I mounted a 5-1/2" x 1-1/2" piece of Basic Black cardstock onto a Terracotta Tile card base. Then, I added 3/4" x 3" strips of DSP onto a 4-1/2" x 3-1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock with SNAIL. This backdrop is popped up with Dimensionals.

Focal Point—I stamped the word in Memento Black onto a Whisper White Stitched Shapes square die-cut and popped it up. Like the first card, I stamped the floral image onto Whisper White, die-cut it and adhered it to the square. So sweet!
