Team Apple Cider

Posted on October 3, 2025October 3, 2025 by inkspirationwithteresa

Fall is here! So the big question is are you team Apple Cider or team Pumpkin Spice?

I’ve been having a lot of fun crafting lately with the More than Autumn stamps and dies which totally lives up to it’s name. It’s a very versatile set! Which totally earns bonus points with me. And it makes it so you don’t have to choose. This week’s card pairs these awesome stamps and dies with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper pack. Another favourite of mine!

The card base is Cherry Cobbler with an Early Espresso design for the card front. On top of that are 4 Very Vanilla squares framed with more Cherry Cobbler cardstock. Each square has a different image stamped on the cup sleeve. There are so many cute images to choose from! And I think I used all of them on this card. I used Early Espresso ink that I stamped off on a scrap piece of paper first. In the centre of the four squares is another cup that I coloured using the Crumb Cake and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends. The cinnamon stick was coloured using Pecan Pie. And all of these are popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Underneath the squares I die cut part of the sentiment with one of the dies and some Cherry Cobbler cardstock. (I used the Fine Tip Glue Pen to stick it to the patterned paper. But you could also use adhesive sheets.) Then I stamped “apple cider” on a small piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. I stamped off the Early Espresso for the sentiment and then popped it up too.

Check out another project I made using the More than Autumn stamps and dies here. And you can find them in my online shop. Sadly the dies have been moved to the Last Chance section, so they’ll only be available for a little while longer.

As for me, I’m team Apple Cider. How about you?

Apple Season

Posted on September 19, 2025September 19, 2025 by inkspirationwithteresa

Fall officially kicks off on Monday! And while I enjoy summer, I just love the colours of Fall! Plus that means we’re in apple season which means apple picking and warm apple cider. I think that’s even been showing up in my craft room. The past little bit I’ve been having fun colouring with the More than Autumn stamps and dies. It’s such a fun combo to craft with!

This week’s card is leaning hard into my love of fall and apple season. I started by pulling out the retired Harvest Hello stamp set and punch and then added in a few pieces from the More than Autumn stamps and dies. The card base is Crumb Cake with a Cherry Cobbler card mat. I also used these colours for my inks; ink pads and Stampin’ Blends. With a little splash of Shaded Spruce.

To colour the apples I started with the Light Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend. Then I added a little bit of the Dark Cherry Cobbler for some depth and shadow. To help with the blending process I then went over the dark edges with the light one more time. For the Crumb Cake and Shaded Spruce I just used one of the Stampin’ Blends. There isn’t a whole lot of space for blending on those parts.

Then I used the punch and die to cut out my apples. Behind the apples I have a piece of the Country Woods Designer Series Paper. The wood grains are great for fall themed projects! I also used the Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend to colour a piece of retired black & white gingham ribbon which I then wrapped around the patterned paper. The apples and part of the sentiment is popped up with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. And then I die cut the words “apple season” out of Cherry Cobbler cardstock to layer on top.

Check out another card I made using the More than Autumn stamp set and dies here.

And stay tuned for some more projects with this awesome set. I don’t think I’m quite ready to put this away just yet.

In the meantime you can head over to my online shop to find the stamps, dies and whatever else you need to make your own version. And when you’re done make sure to post it here. I’d love to see it!

Slimline Watercolour

Posted on June 6, 2025June 6, 2025 by inkspirationwithteresa

My creative juices were a little slow with helping my figure out what I wanted to create this week. Eventually the idea of using the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set to create a slimline watercolour cards of sorts popped into my head. Some of my inkspiration also came from it being Pride month. And I thought a rainbow of butterflies would be fun. It ended up turning into a watercolour background with butterflies I coloured using Stampin Blends.

The card base is Basic Black. Then I used Bubble Bath, Fresh Freesia and Pool Party ink and a Water Painter to create a watercolour background. Once it dried, I added some speckles from the same stamp set using the same ink colours to do a sort of tone on tone stamping. I also added a sentiment from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set using Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

For the butterflies, I stamped them all with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Then I coloured them different colours to create a rainbow. I used Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Shaded Spruce, Pool Party and Highland Heather. Next I die cut them with the coordinating die and popped them up with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals.

This card was fun to make and definitely fit my need to do some colouring this week! I hope you like the variation of a slimline watercolour card.

Happy Valentine’s Day

Posted on February 14, 2025February 13, 2025 by inkspirationwithteresa

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! And to celebrate I’m sharing the last of my Valentine’s themed projects. A fun home decor piece that you can easily put in a 6″ x 6″ frame. I love making projects like these for the different holidays and seasons! And the Adoring Hearts hybrid embossing folder makes this really easy! You just need to hold on to all the extra embossed and die cut hearts for future projects… or maybe you can use them like confetti.

To make the coloured hearts pop I wanted a neutral color for the ‘frame’. So I used Basic White for the inner frame and Basic Black for the mat behind it. For the hearts I used Cherry Cobbler, Fresh Freesia, Bubble Bath, Balmy Blue and a little bit of gold foil.

To reduce the number of extra hearts you can put 3 strips of cardstock in the hybrid embossing folder. So you can get 3 different colours in one go. Or you can use a 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ piece of cardstock for each colour and have a lot of extra hearts. I’ll leave the choice up to you. If you’ve never used a hybrid embossing folder before, check out my post that’ll tell you all you need to know here.

Once I had all my cardstock hearts, I added them to the frame using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. The gold foil was added on top of a plain Cherry Cobbler heart using a Fine-Tip glue pen. I did my best to stagger the colours and designs of the hearts. And I think it turned out pretty good…

Now to find a frame. I think I might still have a frame from my Happy Houseplants kit. Otherwise it’s off to Michaels for me.

You can find everything you need to make your own version of this in my online shop, including the Happy Houseplants kit which you can earn for free as part of Sale-a-bration until February 28th.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Adoring Hearts

Posted on February 7, 2025February 7, 2025 by inkspirationwithteresa

Between the Adoring Hearts and Beautiful Butterflies bundles, I’m having a lot of fun crafting with the hybrid embossing folders. (If you’re wondering what that is, check out this post!) And with Valentine’s Day next week, all those cardstock hearts I’ve been embossing and die cutting are coming in handy!

For this card design I’m doing some colouring. There are some fun designs in the Adoring Hearts stamp set and I had to make at least a couple of cards colouring some of them! In this case the flowers. I stamped the images with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Then I coloured the flowers with the Light and Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends and the leaves with Light and Dark Shaded Spruce. Once they dried I fussy cut them and trimmed them to make a bouquet; popping up the smaller ones in front with a couple mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. I made the cone I put them in using a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock that I embossed using the So Swirly Embossing Folder.

Underneath the bouquet is a Cherry Cobbler card base and Basic Black card mat. Then on the Basic White card front I stamped a few of the floral wreath images in Tuxedo Black Memento ink. On top of the bouquet is the sentiment. And to finish it off I added a few of the Adhesive-Backed Heart Sequins.

I still have some more cardstock hearts, so I’ll be sharing one more Valentine’s Day project using the Adoring Hearts bundle next week.

In the meantime, you can check out the Valentine’s Day slimline card I shared last week here.

Valentine’s Day Slimline Card

Posted on January 31, 2025January 31, 2025 by inkspirationwithteresa

Tomorrow’s February 1st which means that Valentine’s Day is only 2 weeks away! My creative juices have slowly been coming back (see why here). And one bundle that’s definitely sparked some inkspiration is the Adoring Hearts bundle. I love the hybrid embossing folder that comes with the stamp set! So many great possibilities! And one of the the first ideas that popped in my head when I started crafting with these was a Valentine’s day slimline card. I can fit so many more hearts on a slimline card!

The card base is Cherry Cobbler with a Basic Black card mat. This is such a nice deep red for the hearts! I also used Cherry Cobbler for one of my ink colours… Tuxedo Black is the other, of course.

I stamped the sentiment at the bottom of the Basic White card front using Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Then I stamped some small Cherry Cobbler hearts next to it. Next I added a few embossed Cherry Cobbler hearts and some gold foil ones that I die cut using another die from the bundle. To fill in the gaps I added a few Tuxedo Black hearts. I love the design on this one! It wasn’t able to pop up the more detailed Cherry Cobbler hearts, so I used some Stampin’ Dimensionals on the larger gold foil hearts.

If you like this Valentine’s Day slimline card using the Adoring Hearts bundle, then you’ll want to check out the card I shared last week. That post also talks about what a hybrid embossing folder is and what plates you need to use in your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

Frosted Forest Decorative Masks

Posted on September 20, 2024September 20, 2024 by inkspirationwithteresa

With Fall kicking off this weekend I thought it was time to do some crafting with the Frosted Forest Decorative Masks. These are an online exclusive that Stampin’ Up! released over the summer. And when I saw them I thought they’d be great to make some snow covered trees… but also some beautiful, colourful fall trees. I just love all the colours of Fall! Don’t you?!

For this first card I chose Crumb Cake as one of my colours. It works great as a tree trunk! And then my other colour is Crushed Curry. So I have Crushed Curry as my card base. And then I added some Crushed Curry ink to a piece of Basic White cardstock using a Blending Brush to have a little something going on behind my tree.

To create the tree you usually use 3 masks. The first is the tree trunk. Next up is the majority of the leaves on the trees. I used Crushed Curry for this mask. And then instead of using the third mask, I added a little Cherry Cobbler ink around the edges of the Crushed Curry leaves. I love how it turned out!

I framed the tree with some Crumb Cake ink and popped it up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then I wrapped some Linen Thread around this piece and the other piece I used the Blending Brush on. On top of that I added a simple “Hello Fall” using the More than Autumn stamp set. “Hello” in Crumb Cake ink and “Fall” in Crushed Curry. Then to finish it all off I added a few of the yellow Faux Glass Dots. I’ll definitely be using these a lot in my Fall crafting.

I can’t wait to make a winter themed card with the Frosted Forest Decorative Masks!

In the meantime, check out another Fall themed handmade card using the More than Autumn stamp set here.

Merry Christmas and Happy 2024!

Posted on December 27, 2023December 27, 2023 by inkspirationwithteresa

I want to take a moment and wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy 2024! It’s been a busy few days for us here. We visited with both sides of the family, enjoyed great food and the munchkins were very happy to get a “few” presents. Lol!

For this year’s Christmas card for my customers I used the Cottage Wreaths bundle from the Annual catalogue and the retiring Christmas Tidings embossing folder. Shaded Spruce is my main colour, but I did throw in a splash of Cherry Cobbler for the berries. Great Christmas colours!

I hope you all had the chance to spend time with those you love this festive season. And I hope you also have some time to relax and do something you love.

Merry Christmas and Happy 2024 everyone!
