Say Goodby To Your Stampin' Up! Favorites

 Having fun with some of my Favorites...

All month I will be posting about some of my favorite retiring products.

Be sure to come back often! 


Today is all About "NOTHING's BETTER THAN" stamp set.




This stamp set is too delightful to let it go without checking it over. The greetings are clever and the images just make it pop. I combined it with the stamp set called "Hand Penned". They are a unique combination that I think was just perfect.

This card was inspired by Yvonne Spikmans-Van Bruggen of the Creative Tea Cup. She has some amazing creations.



Thee are so many fun ways to use this set! Note that the stamp is two-step stamping so you can get really creative with your designs. The stamp is photopolymer which is perfect for the two-step technique

And of course, you will want the dies too!


If you enjoy how this card encorporated the stamp set "Hand Penned", you will want it too before it retires.





Here are the Steps to create this card.

1.  Stamp the flowers in Smokey Slate toward the top of the Basic White  cardstock that has been cut 4" x 5 1/4".

2,  Die cut the cookie and chocolate images, stamped with Soft Suede, and add them to the sides of the flower.

3.  Die cut the word "happy" from Petal Pink cardstock and add to the card with glue.

4,  Stamp the cups in So Saffron, Soft Sea Foam, and Petal Pink, die cut them with the matching dies, and pop them up with Stampin' Dimensionals.

5,  Add the steam by either stamping with Early Espresso or hand drawing the steam with a marker.

7.  Die cut an ampersand image from Petal Pink cardstock and add to the card with glue.

6,  Stamp the words with Early Espresso Ink.

7.  Add some gems of your choice.

7. Use Stampin' Seal to add the stamped piece to a card base of Soft Sea Foam that is 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" folded in half.

8.  Be sure to finish the inside. I used another die cut with Petal Pink Cardstock and stamped another flower in the corner with Smokey Slate.

This card is ready to make someone in your life SMILE.
