I used the Stampin’ Up! A Wish For Everything stamp set and Wish For Everything and Stitched Triangles Dies to create a super quick birthday card to share with you today.  My card was inspired by an awesome card that Jaimie Babarczy posted on her blog a few weeks ago.  You can see it here.

My card design was also inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #449.

I started by cutting panels of the Playing With Patterns 6″ x 6″ DSP with triangles from the Stitched Triangles Dies.  I adhered the die cut triangles to the front of a Thick Whisper White card base with Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered a small piece of the Adhesive Sheets to the back of another panel of Playing With Patterns DSP and then I cut the sentiment from the DSP with one of the Word Wishes Dies.  I adhered the die cut sentiment to the card front with the adhesive sheets.

I stamped the sentiment from the A Wish For Everything stamp set in Calypso Coral ink on the card front and then added three of the Playing With Patterns Resin Dots to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthdays stamp set in Calypso Coral ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then cut the bottom with the border die from the Stitched Triangles Dies to finish the inside of the card.

You can see a list of supplies used to create this card, including the card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this blog post.

I’ve created a printable PDF with written instructions and a list of products used to create this card.  You can download, print and/or save it by clicking this image:

Stamp With Amy K Supporting Iowa Fundraiser

On August 10, my home state of Iowa hit with a derecho storm which is essentially hurricane strength winds (over 100 mph) and rain as it rolled through the state.  Since I’m far away and I’m not able to be there to help out with the cleanup and rebuilding, I wanted to help out in some small way to get these families back in their homes and back on their feet.  I have a goal to donate at least $500 to the Iowa Giving Crew, a Cedar Rapids based non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is helping to get power restored to those still waiting, is feeding those in need and volunteers 3 meals a day and is helping with the cleanup.

How can you help??  Place a Stampin’ Up! Order Or Donate Directly!

There are two ways that you can help me to reach my goal of donating $500 to the Iowa Giving Crew:

1. Shop Online:  For any orders placed through my online store between now and August 31, 2020, I’m donating 20% of your merchandise total to the Iowa Giving Crew.
   • 20% of orders placed through my online store between now and August 31, 2020 will be donated to the Iowa Giving Crew.
   • You’ll earn Running Shoe Reward Points and a thank you gift from me with all orders of $50!  See my host code details below.
   • Anyone ordering $50+ will be entered to win a new Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine from me to be given away on September 1!  See the details below.
2. Make a Donation of $25+ Directly to the Iowa Giving Crew:  Anyone worldwide is welcome to make a donation to the charity directly via Venmo or PayPal to help (see the details to donate on the Iowa Giving Crew website here).
   • For those in the US, send me a screen shot of the receipt for your donation of $25+ to the Iowa Giving Crew to amy@stampwithamyk.com and you’ll be entered to win the new Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine* to be given away on September 1!  See the details below.
   • If you order $50+ through my Stampin’ Up! store AND donate at least $25 directly to the Iowa Giving Crew, your name will be entered twice to win the machine!

Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine Giveaway – September 1!

As an added bonus, I’ll enter anyone who either orders $50+ through my online store between now and August 31, 2020 or who makes a direct donation* to the Iowa Giving Crew by August 31, 2020 into a drawing for a brand new Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine!

*Please note:  Per Stampin’ Up! rules, I am only able to ship the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to addresses in the United States.  Only those with US shipping addresses will be eligible to win the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.  Anyone outside the US is welcome to donate but will not be eligible to win the machine.  Orders must be placed by midnight MT on August 31, 2020 to be entered to win the machine.  Donations must be made no later than midnight MT on August 31, 2020 to be entered to win the machine.  One winner of the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine will be randomly chosen on Tuesday, September 1 from all of the entries received.

Drop me a note if you have any questions.  The combined donation amount as of late last night is:

$739.40!!  Yippee!!!  We’re over my $500 goal!

Since we surpassed my original goal of $500 so quickly, I’m adding a new goal!  If we make it to $1000 in combined donations by midnight MT on August 31, 2020, I’ll draw a second winner for a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine on September 1!!  

Thanks so much to everyone for supporting my home state!  Let’s keep those donations going and see if we can get to $1000!!
