Incredible In Colors!

Not so happy Saturday for me folks.  :(  My pool team lost our tournament today, so we will not be going to Las Vegas in August for the Worlds Tournament.  Bummer......but I am happy to share my In Color projects from Thursday night.  I really love the color combinations!  I posted the 2026 Color Coach to Toni's Stamping & Sharing Group (in Facebook) last week, so please use that resource. We get a new one every year, and sadly I have not saved all of them.  Or any of them, really.  Once we get a new one, the old files are dead to me.  HA!

I did talk about my upcoming BOGO Sale.  You can find all of the details and information on THIS blog post.  BOGO Sale dates are June 15 - July 15, 2026.  If you have any questions at all, please email me and ask!  There is a link to email me at the top of my blog.

Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET.  I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously, but I recommend viewing on YouTube.   

If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube.  If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it.

First project features a returing In Color - Crisp Cantaloupe, along with Calypso Coral and Basic Black.  I used the Crisp Cantaloupe Shimmer Brush to paint this SHIMMERY background.   Adding some pieces from the Floral Flight Accents.  I love these die-cuts and they are so thick!  You can definitely heat-emboss them, if you wanted to.

Stamp some little bits from the Fern & Flora set, once that Crisp Cantaloupe  Shimmer brush dries!

Paper Measurements:

• Calypso Coral:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Basic Black:  3 3/4" x 5"
• Basic White:  3 9/16" x 4 13/16"
• Basic White:  4" x 5 1/4", for inside of card
• Basic White:  scrap to stamp/hand-cut greeting

Close-up that hopefully shows ALL THAT SHIMMER!  I love these In Color Shimmer Brushes!

Finish off with some of the Pearlized Faceted Circles.

Stamps:  Fern & Flora

Ink:  Calypso Coral, Basic Black

Paper:  Calypso Coral, Basic Black, Basic White

Other:  Floral Flight Accents, Crisp Cantaloupe Shimmer Brush, Pearlized Faceted Circles (Calypso Coral)

Our second card is mixing both of the In Color sets - Hydrangea Hue and Cloud Cover, paired with Smoky Slate.  All of layers on the front of this card will be ripped....or don't rip them if you don't like the ripped effect.  After I ripped, I ink-blended the same ink color on the ripped edges.  So, Hydrangea Hue ink-blended on the Hydrangea Hue ripped edges. 

Paper Measurements:

• Smoky Slate:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Basic White:  4" x 5 1/4", for inside of card
• Hydrangea Hue:  4" x 5 1/2", rip top and bottom edges
• Cloud Cover:  3 3/4" x 5 1/2", rip top and bottom edges
• Basic White:  2 1/2" x 5 1/2", rip top and bottom edges

Finish with some Cloud Cover In Color Flat Pearls.

Stamps:  Sunset Coast

Ink:  Hydrangea Hue, Cloud Cover, Smoky Slate

Paper:  Hydrangea Hue, Cloud Cover, Smoky Slate, Basic White

Other:  2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls

Third project is finishing the front decorating on a Stand-Up Notepad and Pen Holder that I made a couple of weeks ago HERE.  I brought in Terrific Toadstools, which is on the Last Chance list now.  You could use anything on this project.  The important part is the color combination, that again came from the 2026 Color Coach:  Strawberry Slush, Secret Sea, and Basic Beige.

Paper Measurements:

• I'm not going to add these, since they're already listed in this blog post.

Finish with some Antique Pearls, which are a perfect match with Basic Beige.

Stamps:  Terrific Toadstools

Ink:  Basic Beige, Strawberry Slush, Secret Sea

Paper:  Secret Sea, Strawberry Slush, Basic Beige, Mixed Up Patterns Designer Series Paper

Other:  Antique Pearls

The fourth project is my favorite, only because I love this color combination the best.  I came up with this color combo myself - Darling Duckling, Timid Tiger, and Granny Apple Green.  You can't go wrong with Balloons for a nice birthday card!   Pick your favorite three colors and re-create this one!  This is a great design.

Paper Measurements:

• Timid Tiger:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Basic White:  4" x 5 1/4", for inside of card
• Basic White:  3 3/4" x 5"
• Darling Duckling/Timid Tiger/Granny Apple Green  :  (1 each) 1 1/2" x 3 1/2" + scraps to die-cut balloons

Finish with some Basic Rhinestones.

Stamps:  Balloon Festoon bundle

Ink:  Darling Duckling, Timid Tiger, Granny Apple Green

Paper:  Darling Duckling, Timid Tiger, Granny Apple Green, Basic White

Other:  White Baker's Twine, Basic Rhinestones

Be sure to check out that 2026 Color Coach that I linked at the start of this blog post.  I think that's a great resource for you!

This coming Thursday, I'll be playing some more with the Fern & Flora Bundle.  I just ordered the embossing folder, and it SHOULD arrive on Wednesday.  Fingers crossed that it's not delayed.

Toni's 2026 Buy One Get One SALE!

 

Heads up!  I have not cleaned out my retired Stampin' Up products in quite some time, so there will be plenty of items to choose from.  I will be running a BOGO - Buy One, Get One event using my Facebook Group:  Toni's Stamping & Sharing Group  

In the past, I have done these sales through a Live video on Facebook.  I'm changing things up, and keeping this event open for one month.   I will give more details into the whats and whys in my weekly Live video, this Thursday June 4th.

This type of sale is a pretty easy concept.   You pick your "Get One", your free stuff, FIRST.  Then you place an order for that same amount, your "Buy One", through my web site.  You pay shipping/tax on the order that you place.  Then we figure out how I'll get your FREE stuff to you.  You either pay shipping, or arrange for local pick up.

Example:  If you claim a bundle that is priced at $49.50, you must place an order of at least $49.50 (before tax/shipping, after any Stampin' Rewards are applied) through MY website.  Then we figure out how to get your free stuff to you.

RULES of the SALE:

• Sale Dates are June 15 - July 15.  
• Photos will be uploaded into different Albums by 11:00pm ET Sunday, June 14th.
• Comment "claimed, [your name]" on the item picture of your FREE items. 
• Make a list of all of your claimed items and the price.
• Email me (tonistamps@yahoo.com) to confirm your claimed items and the total that your order needs to be.
• Place your order through my Stampin' Up site within 48 hours of claiming free items.  Make sure that I am selected as your Stampin' Up Demonstrator for your order.
• Arrange for shipping or pick up of your free items.  If shipping is needed, you'll need to pay for the postage through Paypal (Friends & Family) or Zelle.

Typically, I share my list of items for sale ahead of time so you will know if there is even anything you are interested in.  There is so much in this sale, that I cannot do that this time.  

Questions???  EMAIL ME at tonistamps@yahoo.com and ask me.

Thanks for visiting, and Happy stamping!

Boutique Bloom Suite Projects - so pretty!

Happy Saturday everyone!  I hope you are enjoying your weekend so far.  I had a lovely trip to Walmart earlier to grab laundry detergent (I'm living the dream!), and then I came home and cleaned my craft table off while I talked to Sue Krusin' Through Ink on the phone (definitely the highlight of my day). 

Today's post is all about the projects that I made on Thursday night, along with the FOURTH project that I did not have time to make on camera.  I am very happy with this suite.  The bundles, the COLORS, the papers, the Butterflies...and the boxes! 

I think the last 10 minutes or so of my live video was showing you the accessories and things that I pre-ordered from the upcoming July Online Exclusives.  I didn't get any stamps yet, but got a bunch of cool doo-dads, embossing folders, and beautiful gingham papers!

Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET.  I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously, but I recommend viewing on YouTube.   

If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube.  If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it.

First project is card, where I show you TWO different ways to EMBOSS with the April Product of the Month: Eyelet Blooms die.  I used the new Impressions Plate first, then I showed how you can also use the Silicon Mat.  I had to use some whiteboard shims in with the silicone mat, and it did end up cutting some of the pattern.... I think my viewers and I decided together that it might work with TWO silicone mats.  The silicon mat is much thinner than the Impressions plate, hence why we think two might work better.

The name "Impressions Plate" is kind of misleading.  It's not really a hard plate.  It's a soft silicone thing.  More of a "mat", versus a "plate", but that's what Stampin' Up is calling it.  

I thought this Eyelet Blooms die coordinates so nicely with this Suite, and I really wanted to show you how to get some more use out of it.  I do love the embossed effect!

Paper Measurements:

• Peaceful Pine:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Peaceful Pine:  4" x 5 1/4", embossed with Eyelet Blooms DIE
• Basic White:  4" x 5 1/4", for inside of card
• Basic White:  scraps to stamp/die-cut/hand-cut flowers, leaves and greeting

Finish off with some of the tiny In Color Butterflies!

Stamps:  Boutique Blossoms Bundle, Scalloped Blooms Bundle

Ink:  Crisp Cantaloupe, Barely Blush, Peaceful Pine, Golden Glow

Paper:  Peaceful Pine, Basic White, Bloom Boutique Designer Series Paper

Other:  2026-2028 In Color Butterflies

Second project is a Z-Fold Slimline card that I designed and made back in 2020!  I haven't made these in a while, but they are making the rounds in the stamping community.  I show you how to get your angles just right when you're cutting that Designer Series paper, and fun way to use the Forever Plaid embossing folder (hint:  at an angle!).

Paper Measurements:

• Crisp Cantaloupe:  8 1/2" x 10 7/8", scored at 3 5/8" and 7 1/4"
• Bloom Boutique DSP:  3 3/8" x 8 1/4"
• Basic Whtie:  3 3/8" x 8 1/4"
• Bloom Boutique DSP:  1 3/4" x 3 3/8"
• Hydrangea Hue/Barely Blush/Crisp Cantaloupe/Peaceful Pine:  scraps to die-cut flowers

Open, laying flat so you can see all of the inside stamping.  Stamp just the flower outlines, tone-on-tone on the middle panel.  Then stamp them in different colors on the Basic White panel, and color in with the coordinating Shimmer Brush pens!

Card standing up.

I like the DSP going down the whole length of this middle panel, because you'll definitely be able to see it when the card is opened up.

Close-up so you can see how you can get a diagonal plaid out of the Forever Plaid embossing folder.  Just turn your paper at an angle. 

Finish with some more of the Butterflies.

Stamps:  Boutique Blossoms Bundle

Ink:  Crisp Cantaloupe, Barely Blush, Peaceful Pine, Golden Glow

Paper:  Peaceful Pine, Basic White, Bloom Boutique Designer Series Paper

Other:  Forever Plaid embossing folder, Sincerely Noted Mix & Match Ephemera Pack, 2026-2028 In Color Butterflies, White Glittered Organdy ribbon, In Color Shimmer Brushes (Crisp Cantaloupe, Barely Blush, Hydrangea Hue, Peaceful Pine)

Third project is one of the Scalloped Window Boxes that comes in the Suite.  I showed how to line up the scallop dies on whatever paper you're using, so it lines up with the pre-cut/windowed scallop on the box.  I did have some mishaps, but you get the idea.  :)   The boxes are really easy to assemble, and sturdy enough.  I think they are made out of Thick cardstock.  They're definitely lighter than the cardboard pizza boxes that we've had in the past.

I ended up using a piece of dsp from the Garden Poetry pack.  Add some flowers and greenery.

Paper Measurements:

• Garden Poetry DSP:  3 1/4" x 3 1/4", cut with Scalloped Blooms dies
• Basic White:  scraps to stamp/die-cut flowers
• Peaceful Pine:  scraps to die-cut leaves/greenery

Finish with some more of the In Color Butterflies.

Stamps:  Boutique Blossoms Bundle

Ink:  Berry Burst, Blackberry Bliss

Paper:  Peaceful Pine, Basic White, Bloom Boutique Designer Series Paper

Other:  Scalloped Window Boxes, In Color Butterflies

NOW for the fourth project that I did not have time to make live.  This is a pocket card.  The pocket is a 4" x 12" piece of DSP - so that I can maximize my DSP versus cutting it 4 1/4" x 12".  SO, 4" x 12" for the pocket.  Cut the side flaps at angles, and make a card insert.  

The card insert sits taller than the pocket to make it easy to grab out, and still fit in a medium envelope.

Paper Measurements:

• Garden Poetry DSP:  4" x 12", scored at 3 1/4", 8 3/4"
• Berry Burst:  4" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White:  3 3/4" x 5"
• Garden Poetry DSP:  1/2" x 5 1/4"
• Blackberry Bliss:  scrap cut with Scalloped Blooms dies, about 3" scallop
• Basic White:  scrap cut with Scalloped Blooms dies, about 2 1/4" scallop

Finish with some Charming Faceted Gems in Berry Burst.  They are retired, but perfect for this card.

Card pulled out of pocket.  You could also stamp all over the back side of this card and flip it so that is showing in the pocket, instead of the white side.  I'm just now thinking - would you want your hand-written message visible, or on the back side?

Stamps:  Boutique Blossoms, Reason to Celebrate

Ink:  Berry Burst, Blackberry Bliss

Paper:  Peaceful Pine, Basic White, Bloom Boutique Designer Series Paper

Other:  Scalloped Blooms dies, White Glittered Organdy Ribbon, Charming Faceted Gems

I hope you enjoyed what I created!

This coming Thursday, I'll be working with more In Colors In Depth!  Lots of interesting color combinations and projects.

Reminder that the June 2026 Product of the Month goes live this coming Tuesday, June 2nd.  This Wild Bunch stamp set is SURE to run out fast, so grab yours asap!

Tri-Panel Arch Wedding Card and Envelope

Some of our dear friends had a Wedding Vow Renewal ceremony and reception earlier in March.  We had a great time up there, and this is the card that I made for them.  I went with the same tri-panel arch design that I made HERE.   Just change the colors, papers, and theme.  

I used some stamps from Unity Stamp Co.  Gold-embossed the ampersand and hand-cut it.  Then layered the other greetings.  Also brought in some of my new Fern & Flora dies for the greenery.

Here it is opened up, laying flat.  I wrote on the middle panel.

Paper Measurements:

• Gorgeous Grape base:  3" x 8 1/2", scored at 4", 8"
• Gorgeous Grape base:  3" x 4"
• Gorgeous Grape arches:  (3) 4 1/4" x 5 1/4", cut with largest die
• Nature's Sweetnessl DSP:  (2) 3 5/8" x 5", cut with second largest die
• Basic White:  3 5/8" x 5", cut with second largest die
• Gold Foil/Gorgeous Grape/Old Olive:  scraps to die-cut butterflies and leaves

Not the best lighting, but here it is standing up.  

I made the envelope using Gorgeous Grape cardstock.  Tag is Gorgeous Grape, Nature's Sweetness DSP, and some Gold Mesh ribbon.  Unfortunately, I didn't write down the measurements of the tag.

Stamps:  And All the Things (Unity Stamp Co), More Wishes, Notes of Nature Bundle

Ink:  Versamark, Gorgeous Grape, Old Olive

Paper:  Gorgeous Grape, Old Olive, Basic White, Gold Foil, Nature's Sweetness Designer Series Paper

Balloon Festoon Vertical Paper Treat Bag Mini Album - featuring the Pretty Party Card Kit

Hope you're enjoying this Memorial Weekend!  So far, it's been nothing but cold and rain here in Maryland.  I didn't have any outside plans anyway, so I'm good.  :)  Honestly, I have so much on my to-do list for cleaning and purging my craft room, that I need the time off with no expectations to cook out or do anything people-y.   I don't know about you, but I need those kinds of weekends every so often.  

So let's get into this week's project.  You know I LOVE a MINI ALBUM of any kind.  The idea for this one started when Sharon La C sent me a bag of Treat Bags with balloons all over them.  Perfect for another Vertical Paper Bag Mini Album...so I've been sitting on them for a little bit.  When the May-August 2026 catalog came out, the Balloon Festoon Bundle spoke to me.  I just had to pair it with these treat bags.  THEN earlier this month, the Pretty Party Card Kit was released and I knew I had all the pieces to make a really amazing little album.  So this is the end result.

I wrapped the cover and created the mini album base before my Live video.  If you want to watch a similar video, to see the process of wrapping covers and using the Lay Flat Method, watch THIS video.  Same principles, just different measurements.

Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET.  I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously, but I recommend viewing on YouTube.   

If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube.  If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it.

Finished album size is 6" x 7 1/2". I used the chipboard that comes in our Paper Pumpkin kits for these cover pieces! Save those chipboard pieces folks! Re-use! I'm going to give you ALL of the measurements now, starting with the cover and spine pieces. Then I'll follow up with some pictures.

I think this mini album will hold 35-40 pictures of various sizes!

The album has 5 pages inside. Two treat bag pages, and three pocket pages with flip-outs. All of the pages are "pockets" and can have more inserts added. I made some inserts for the treat bag pages, but not the pocket pages. I will likely do that when I actually put pictures in this album.

Picture of the top of the album.  See how the treat bags are not as wide as the pages.

Spine and back cover.  I embossed the Fresh Freesia pieces with the So Swirly embossing folder.

Spine and front cover.

Inside front cover has a pocket at the bottom, two inserts, and then a flip out on the facing page.  I used the cards from the Pretty Party Card Kit to make the flip outs.

I decided to add magnets before I took pictures.  I'll just have to make sure I cover these up with either photos or journaling spots.

Treat bag page has inserts tucked inside.  I added some banner pieces, also from the Pretty Party kit.

Back side of a treat bag page has a small pocket.

Stamps:  Balloon Festoon

Ink:  Calypso Coral, Peach Pie, Hydrangea Hue

Paper:  Highland Heather, Fresh Freesia, Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink, Hydrangea Hue, Pretty Party Card Kit

Other:  Scalloped Blooms dies, Happy Birthday die, So Swirly embossing folder, Party Treat Bags

Next time you're at the store, check out the party supplies section and see what kinds of paper treat bags they have.  You could find something that would make a perfect little scrapbook!
