May Stampin'Up NC Demos Blog Hop

 

Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop! We are so glad you are here! I'm the last stop on the hop so you might have already stopped by Frances Wagner's post and know this month's theme, but if you are just popping in this month's theme is Sketch it Out following the sketch below. 

I chose Fern & Flora stamps and die for my card. I used 4 of the new Stampin'Up In Colors- Peaceful Pine on the Fern images, Hyrangea Hue on the lines that are hiding and the outline of the sentiment, Golden Glow on the moth and the sentiment,  and Crisp Cantaloupe on the floral image and the butterfly. The DSP I used is Stampin'Up Masterfully Made 12 x 12 DSP that I trimmed down with my SU trimmer to fit the card. The buttons are from Stampin'Up from my stash- most likely a RAK. Thank you for letting me share my card. Please stop by and see Tina Lesson's post back at the beginning. I know it will be great!

April Demos Blog

Welcome to the April 2026 NC Demos Blog Hop! I chose Beautiful Ordinary Life DSP for my quilt element and Masterfully Made DSP for the background design. I stamped the sentiment from Fern & Flora Photopolymer Stamp set with Stampin'Up Classic Stampin' Pad Barely Blush and the journaling block stamp with SU Classic Stampin' Pad Hydrangea Hue.  The sequins and cardstock- card base, and mats are also from SU, but I don't remember which collection. Please leave a comment and you're off to Tracie Langley- The Sassy Stamper.

Here is the list of hoppers & their links:

NC Demos Mini Catty January Hop

Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop! We are so glad you are here! You might have already stopped by  Laurie's post and see that this month's theme is Anything Goes as long as it features products from the January to April Mini catalog.

For my card I chose Country Bouquet Photopolymer Stamp Set. I used Very Vanilla Cardstock, and Subtles Cardstock- I chose the Valentine colors of red, pink, and purple (they actually are also my favorite colors). I stamped the hearts with Real Red and Highland Heather Classic ink pads and for the sentiment I used Rich Razzleberry Classic ink pad. The sequins were a RAK from another scrapbooking group I belong to and are also Stampin' Up. I decided not to use DSP on this card and layered my cardstock in a plus formation. I decided to add dimensionals under the sentiment and between the red hearts. 

We are also supposed to mention what is on our wish list from the new catalog. I have already purchased the Famous Sayings set a few weeks ago when I purchased a Cut & Emboss 6" machine. I have not used the stamp set yet, but have used my Cut & Emboss machine and am loving it! As for my wishlist, I have not purchased the Boardwalk Fun Bundle yet, but I plan to do so. The palm trees remind me of Florida and I hope to see some when I go to OnStage in Long Beach on March 11! Thank you for letting me share my card. Amanda
