So Many Stars

Hello and welcome.

When I first saw the So Many Stars bundle (#p153016) I just knew I had to have it and am loving using this stamp set and dies. Here’s another card using this set. I hope you like it.

I stamped the sentiment and group of 5 stars from the So Many Stars stamp set (#p150496) using Blueberry Bushel ink (#147138), on Whisper White card (#106549). Then I stamped all the small stars, from the same stamp set, using Silvery Shimmer Delicata Metallic ink (#150709). I cut the Silver Glimmer Paper (#146960) using the Stitched Stars Dies (#150653), and this detailed cutout fits over the stamped stars. I glued this to the card with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309). The 5 stars which came out of the detailed piece, were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The base card is Blueberry Bushel (#146991). 

Have a great day.

So Many Stars Bundle

Hello again,

There is such a variety of stars in the So Many Stars Bundle (#p153016) which consists of the So Many Stars stamp set (#150496) and the Stitched Stars Dies (#150653).

I stamped the stars with Night Of Navy ink (#147110) using the Stamparatus (#148187). “Peace, Love &” are all from the So Many Stars stamp set, and “Joy to the world” is from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set (#c150513). After stamping on the Whisper White base card (#106549) I embossed it with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder (#151775). The card with the stars was matted with Night Of Navy card (#106577). The sentiment was punched with the 1-3/8” Scallop Circle Punch (#146139). I cut  stars using the Stitched Stars Dies from Sparkle Glimmer Paper (#146957) and attached them to the stamped stars with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The rhinestones are from the Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#150457) and added to each star. The centre sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Have a great day.

Basic Pattern Decorative Masks

Hi,

The Basic Pattern Decorative Masks (#150697) are great for creating textured backgrounds with the Embossing Pastes. You can also sponge coloured inks for a great effect.

For this background I used the Shimmery White Embossing Paste (#145645) on Very Vanilla card (#106550). The base card is Gorgeous Grape (#147011). The ribbon is Purple Posy Scalloped Linen Ribbon (#149706). I stamped the greeting from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set (#c150541) with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099). The 2 outer baubles were stamped with the same ink and the other with Highland Heather ink (#147103). These baubles are in the Christmas Gleaming stamp set (#c150464) and punched with one of  the co-ordinating punches from the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack (#150647). The sentiment and the Gorgeous Grape card were punched with the Tailored Tag Punch (#145667). Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the greeting and the middle bauble to the card. The rhinestones are from the Noble Peacock Rhinestones (#149494). 

The Purple Posy ink and refill is now in stock, so if you have been waiting for this, now is the time to order. Also the Designer Series Paper special (buy 3 get the 4th free) is only available till the 30th September, so don’t miss this opportunity. Here are the packs you can order from -

Have a fabulous weekend.

Floral Essence & Daisy Lane

Hi again,

A break again today from Christmas cards. The flowers are from the Floral Essence stamp set (#p149450) and the leaves are from the Daisy Lane stamp set (#c149325), which are both from the Annual Catalogue.

The flowers and sentiment were stamped with Rich Razzleberry ink (#147091). I used Shaded Spruce ink (#147088) for the leaves. The flowers and leaves were fussy cut and the sentiment was cut with a die from the Ornate Frames Dies (#150664). “Thanks” is from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set (#149298). The cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and Rich Razzleberry (#119981) and the Designer Series Paper is from the Regals 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#149616). The embellishments are from the Holiday Rhinestones Basic Jewels (#150457). I added some glitter to the flowers with the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897). This caused “bleeding” of the ink, but that’s what I wanted, so there was some subtle colour around the centre of the flower. The sentiment and one flower were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Have a great day.

The circle was cut with the Stitched Shapes Dies (#145372) from Real Red from the Regals 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#149616).

Snowfall Accents Puff Paint

Hello Friends,

I had my first “play” with the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint (#150691) today. To use, just apply the paint to your project and heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056), which puffs up the paint for a 3D textured effect.

I cut a piece of the Feels Like Frost 6”x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#150444) with a die from the Frosted Frames Dies (#150658), then added the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint to the leaves. I stamped “Merry Christmas” from the Perfectly Plaid stamp set (#p149418), using Blueberry Bushel ink (#147138) on Whisper White card (#106549). This white card and Silver Glimmer Paper (#146960) were cut with another die from the Frosted Frames Dies. I cut the Silver Paper diagonally and attached it behind the Feels Like Frost DSP. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the White card with the sentiment. The snowflakes are cut from Blueberry Bushel card (#146991), also with dies from the same die set. The base card is Blueberry Bushel and the Whisper White card front was embossed with the Hammered Metal 3D Embossing Folder (#150646).

Bird Ballard Designer Series Paper

Hi and welcome,

I have concentrated so much on Christmas cards recently, I decided I would take a break today and use some products from the Annual Catalogue. In fact I was doing a bit of a sort out and came across these birds from the Bird Ballard Designer Series Paper (#149592), so decided to use them on a card. I had already cut them for another project and didn’t use them.

The birds were fussy cut. The cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and So Saffron (#108611). I embossed the So Saffron card with the Layered Leaves 3D Embossing Folder (#152321) and attached this to the Whisper White card front. The sentiment from the Painted Glass stamp set (#c148220) was stamped with So Saffron ink (#147109). I added some shimmer to the birds using the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897). The birds were glued to the card with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309).

Have a great weekend.

Christmas Countdown stamp set

Hello & welcome again,

If you like a bit of sparkle and bling like I do, especially on your Christmas cards, I think you will like this one.

I stamped the leaf image from the Christmas Countdown stamp set (#c151833) onto Whisper White card (#106549). This was stamped with Shaded Spruce ink (#147088). I positioned the stamp on the Stamparatus (#148187) and after stamping each image, just rotated the card 90 degrees to stamp the next image. This gives you perfect alignment with all the stamped images. This card was then attached to the Shaded Spruce card (#147006). The green DSP from the Wrapped In Plaid 6” x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#149596) and the Real Red Glimmer Paper (#150427) were punched with the Banner Triple Punch (#138292). “Thinking Of You At Christmas” is from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set (#c150513) and stamped with Real Red Ink (#147084).

I just realised how many layers are on this card.

Feels Like Frost with So Many Stars

Hello,

I am usually a traditionalist with colours when it comes to Christmas cards, but I think I have changed my mind with this card (and looks even better in reality).

I wanted to use the Feels Like Frost 6” x 6” Specialty Designer Paper (#150444), so chose this one with a muted image. This beautiful DSP has photographic images on one side and  hand drawn designs with silver foil on the reverse. The base card is Seaside Spray (#150889) and then I attached the Rococo Rose card (#150888). The larger star and the smallest star are cut with a die from the Stitched Stars Dies (#150653) from Champagne Foil Sheets (#144748). I also cut the Sparkle Glimmer Paper (#146957) with these dies. The detailed points of the star were glued with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309) and the medium star was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). “Seasons Greetings” is from So Many Stars stamp set (#p150496) and stamped with Rococo Rose ink (#150080) on Whiper White card (#106549). The swirl above the sentiment is also cut with a die from the Stitched Stars Dies.

I like a fancy fold card and this is an easy one.

I used the A4 Thick Cardstock in Whisper White (#140490) for the base card, measuring 15cm x 10.5cm. Then I added a piece of So Saffron card (#108611) on top. This measured 19.5cm x 10cm and scored at 14.5cm. The Real Red card (#106578) is 7.5cm x 22cm and scored at 11cm.
