May 4, 2020 | Make a Splash |
A: Long time, no SEA! As a Hostess set, the Make a Splash stamp set is often overlooked. It easily lends itself to puns and riddles and you know how those crack me up! But, its many elements would be great for a succulent terrarium card, a fishbowl or a bowl of floating flowers. Consider combining it with the Lovely Lily Pad stamp set you may have earned FREE during Sale-A-Bration. To achieve the look of seaweed on the crab card, roll a marble (or marbles) in your choice of re-inkers (consider the retiring In Colors). Watch me demonstrate this technique in the Stamp with Gloria Facebook Live video dated 04-28-2020. The stamp set is featured on page 73 of the Mini catalog – take a look before it’s gone!

May 1, 2020 | Forever Blossoms |
We have had two days in a row of beautiful weather, so I went outside and snapped a picture of the trees budding out. I love that green color! I’m sharing a pretty Mother’s Day card for those of you who will have time to get it made and mailed in two weeks! This card features the Forever Blossoms stamp set and the Small Bloom Punch you may have earned FREE during Sale-A-Bration. Any small flower punch will work, however. Stampin’ Up! has offered several over the years. I’ve used Lovely Lipstick cardstock (which is being retired), but Cherry Cobbler cardstock is a perfect substitute. I like the contrast. On Sunday 05-03-2020, visit Stamp with Gloria on Facebook at 7:30pm CST where I’ll demonstrate how to make this card. See more like this at stampwithgloria.com.
