last chance open house and sneak peek

by nataliegramleystamps | Apr 20, 2022 | special offer

Always so sad to say good bye to the great artwork and creativity of our talented design team at Stampin’ Up! But every year we seem to retire some of my favorites only to be surprised when I am blown away by how much I like the new stamp sets, bundles and the rest of the offerings and this year is no exception!
This catalog is fabulous and the new In Colors are my favorite of all time!! And that is saying a lot!
Come join me for some sneak peek fun and a tribute to the favorites we will have to leave behind to make way for all the great new products!

flash sale – finished cards make great gifts for yourself or a friend!

by nataliegramleystamps | Mar 30, 2022 | card samples, special offer

Did you know that Stampin’ Up! allows demonstrators and customers to use their copyrighted images to sell for profit using their angel policy? We do! As long as your cards have an angel policy approved copyright image!

Did you know that I sell all of the cards I do not send to family, friends and customers? I do!
And from now until the end of May I will be putting my card sets on sale. Normally I sell my cards for $2 each or $20 for a box of 10 assorted cards. During this FLASH SALE I will be selling my cards for $15/box or 3 boxes for $40!
You cannot even get most store bought cards anymore for less than $2, and where can you find a thoughtful hostess gift for under $15?
These make great Mother’s Day gifts as well.
I ship anywhere and accept Credit Cards, PayPal, Venmo and Cash if you are local.
email me at nataliestamps@aol.com to request an order!

The cards come in an elegant clear acrylic box and are perfect for that last minute birthday gift that you forgot about or a mother-in-law gift for the women that is slightly hard to buy for!
Each box is sealed and comes with a short message from me on the back!

If you do not have the supplies to make a lot of different cards yet, or you are short on time and would like to buy some gifts – I always have card sets in stock! I can even do custom cards or make a set that is all Birthday, Thank you or All Occasions!

Buy from me or go and create some art of your own – either way it all starts with one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

scrappy strips technique

by nataliegramleystamps | Dec 22, 2021 | card samples, Designer Series Paper, Sale-a-bration, sneak peak, special offer, techniques

Debuting January 4th, this adorable Sunshine and Rainbows 6 x 6 DSP can be earned for FREE!!
This is a fun technique that you can create using DSP – whether it is random strips or cut just fora card like this one!

Because most of our DSP is two sided and the front and back are designed to compliment each other most of the time this is a great technique to do to show off both sides of the DSP!

Using DSP cut to 5 1/4″ in height if you are layering your DSP on the “tall” side of the card or 4″ is you are layering it across the shorter side of the card (in the sample shown I used the 5 1/4″ strips for the Misty Moonlight card and the 4″ strips for the Crushed Curry card.

Using your paper cutter angle the paper and cut out small strips on the diagonal the entire way across the DSP.

Flip the Strips into alternating sides.

Using your favorite adhesive and your Silicon mat start to adhere the scrappy strips to the card base

Adhere all of the strips in this manner – keeping a consistent margin around the strips .

Add a sentiment and embellishments and easy peasy you have a quick and cute card!

Hope this inspired you to go out and create art of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

This is another sample using the same technique!

celebrating 100 posts with my version of a northern lights technique

by nataliegramleystamps | Dec 20, 2021 | card samples, Designer Series Paper, my favorites, Sale-a-bration, sneak peak, special offer, specialty papers, techniques

Can you believe this is my 100th blog post! I am celebrating this milestone with a special card and technique! Lots of people have bucket lists and one of the many things on mine is to witness first hand the amazing glory of the Northern Lights one day! The upcoming Sale-a-bration has many very cool offerings but the one that immediately attracted my eye when we got to see them all in the demonstrator early release was the Simply Marbleous 6 x 6 DSP – it comes in Balmy Blue, Basic Gray, Blushing Bride, Bumblebee , Coastal Cabana, Flirty Flamingo, Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Misty Moonlight, Pool Party, Smoky Slate and So Saffron (phew that is a lot of color!) One side of the DSP is marbled hence the name of the paper and the other side reminds me of flowing Satin sheets…
I immediately thought of the upcoming Horizons Dies and wanted to make my own version of a northern lights scene!

Measurements:
Basic Black CS 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
Basic Gray hued piece of the Simply Marbleous
DSP cut to 4″ x 5 1/4″
scrap Basic Black for the sentiment and die cuts
and base piece
Vellum CS scraps for the snowcap mountains
die

Using Northern Lights colors: Pacific Point, Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape and Blending Brushes, I colored the swirls in alternating colors to mimic the Northern Lights.

Attach the DSP to the Basic Black Base cardstock and then take an additional piece of Black cardstock 5 1/4″ x 1 to 2 inches depending upon the amount of silhouette base you wish to have for your mountainous-scape.

Adhere this 2″ x 5 1/4″ piece to the base of the DSP

Die cut several mountains in Basic Black and the snow cap accents in vellum. I cut two mountain ranges in black and four vellum pieces for this card.

Adhere the first mountain range to the right side of the card.

Using multipurpose glue, adhere the snowcap vellum to the first mountain range die

Using the same technique attach the vellum to the second mountain range – I turned mine in the opposite direction – and adhered this range on the left hand side. Then I moved down the black piece and added two snowcap dies to the bottom portion of the card

Lastly I embossed with Versamark and White embossing powder a sentiment from the upcoming Sale-a-bration sentiment stamp set Special Moments and popped it up on dimensionals!
Thanks for following my adventures in stamping – so proud of myself for coming this far and getting to 100 posts! I love to stamp and teach different ways to make beautiful cards and I love my customers! Thank you for all of your support! Hopefully I inspire you with my posts to go out and create your own artwork – One stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

finding inspiration – hand penned petals and be dazzling sale-a-bration specialty paper

by nataliegramleystamps | Sep 1, 2021 | card samples, special offer

I love being inspired by my fellow demonstrators! As a demonstrator there are many opportunities to interact, learn from, be inspired by and CASE other giving demonstrators! We have a Facebook page just for demonstrators and often a card will catch my eye as this one did – here is my version of a card inspired by fellow demonstrator A. Alexander! Thanks for the inspiration.

I paired this gorgeous Be Dazzling Sale-a-bration FREE specialty paper with Smokey Slate cardstock as a card base (#131202) with Basic Gray cardstock (#121044) layered on top as a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece.

I embossed the flower images in Silver Embossing powder from the Metallics Stampin’ Emboss Powders (#155555) and I cut a small strip of Be Dazzling Sale-a-bration FREE Specialty Paper (#156629). The Thank you sentiment is also embossed in silver powder on Basic Gray cardstock from the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set (#154456) and mounted over another layer of Be Dazzling paper.

I fussy cut and colored the other flower image from the Hand Penned Petals stamp set (#155070) with Merry Merlot (#147112) and Pear Pizzazz (#147104) ink with a Water Painter (#151298).
