Flowers For Every Season Designer Series Paper

Hello,

I always say that you can make a quick and easy card when you have beautiful designer paper like the Flowers For Every Season 6” x 6” Designer Series Paper (#152486).

Whisper White card (#106549) was used for the base card and I also used it for the card front which was dry embossed with the beautiful Dainty Diamonds 3D embossing Folder (#152702). I cut the Just Jade DSP with one of the Stitched Triangles Dies (#152710). The floral DSP was attached to a piece of Magenta Madness card (#153085). The Magenta Madness 2020-2022 In Color 1/4” Ribbon (#153623) was wrapped around the card. The sentiment from the Free As A Bird stamp set (#149468) was stamped with Magenta Madness ink (#153117) and the ends were punched with the Banners Pick A Punch (#153608). The sentiment was then attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and I added the Elegant Faceted Gems (#152464) to the sentiment.

I hope you have a crafty weekend!!

Box card

Welcome friends,

If you like fancy fold cards here is a Box card, and it’s not too hard to make but looks impressive.

I cut the Whisper White card (#106549) 6” x10-1/2” to make the box. This was scored on the long side at 2-1/2”, 5”, 7-1/2” and 10”. I then scored on the short side at 3-1/4”. See diagram below.

You need 2 pieces of Whisper White card cut at 3-1/2” x 1/2” and scored at 1/2” at each end. These are for inside the box to attach the flowers etc to.

Assemble the box so that the front and sides fold down and the back piece stands up.. 

I then attached pieces of Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper to the inside of the back, the flaps and under the flaps.

I stamped the small daisies from the Daisy Lane stamp set (#c149325) using Daffodil Delight ink (#147094), Terracotta Tile ink (#150086) and Gold Embossing Powder. These were punched with the Medium Daisy Punch (#149517) and I used 2 flowers to assemble each daisy. I attached each daisy to a small strip of Window Sheet (#142314) and attached them to the pieces of card inside the box. I cut the leaves using the dies from the Poppy Moments (#151594) using Mossy Meadow card (#133683), Old Olive (#106576) and Pear Pizzaz (#131290). “Happy Birthday” is cut with the retired Happy Birthday die from Terracotta Tile card (#150890) and glued this to the back of the card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). I added retired Gold Faceted Gems to the centre of the daisies.

Have a great day.

Last A Lifetime

Hi everyone,

Isn’t the Magenta Madness such a vibrant colour and I have only used a small amount on this card.

The base card and card front are Very Vanilla card (#106549). I cut the Magenta Madness card (#153085) with the Ornate Borders Dies (#152724). This was attached to the Very Vanilla card which was dry embossed with one of the Meadow Moments embossing folder (#153126). The Ribbon is Magenta Madness 2020-2022 In Color 1/4” Ribbon (#153623). I attached the Gold Hoop Embellishment (#152474) with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) in a place where they would be covered. The leaves from the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#152493) were also attached with Mini Glue Dots. I stamped the floral image from the Last A Lifetime stamp set (#c151479) with VersaMark (#102283) and sprinkled it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was then cut with the co-ordinating die from the Lasting Elegance Dies (#151475). This was then coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Magenta Madness (#153106), Granny Apple Green (#154885) and Mango Melody (#154888). I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach this to the card. “Celebrate” is from the Many Mates stamp set (#c152633) and stamped with Magenta Madness ink (#153117). I cut the sentiment with an Ornate Frames die (#150664) and added the Gold Metallic Trim from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack (#152475). This was also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. 

Enjoy whatever it is you are doing today.

So Much Love stamp set

Hello again friends,

I have gold embossed this flower from So Much Love stamp set (#152667) before colouring with Stampin’ Blends.

I stamped the flower with VersaMark (#102283) and sprinkled it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129) before setting it with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was then fussy cut then coloured with the Stampin’ Blends. I used Mango Melody (#154888) and Granny Apple Green (#154885). The base card is Whisper White (#106549).

The top piece of Whisper White card was cut on an angle with a die from the Ornate Borders (#152724). I stamped the sentiment from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set (#149306) using Mango Melody ink (#147093). I spritzed the Whisper White card front and the flower with Frost White Shimmer Paint (#147046). The flower was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I cut some leaves with the Dies from the Boho Indigo Product Medley (#153132) and I used Granny Apple Green card (#147014). I adhered the Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the card before cutting with the die. The embellishments are from the Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#150457).

I hope you have had a relaxing weekend.

Very Versailles stamp set

Hi everyone,

I have used 2 of my favourite things on this card - butterflies and purple.

I stamped the leafy branch from the Very Versailles stamp set (#149275) with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104) onto the Designer Series Paper from In Good Taste (#152494). The DSP was matted with Highland Heather card (#147010).  I wrapped the 3/8” Tricolor Ribbon (#149708) around the card front before it was attached to the Whisper White card base (#106549). The sentiment and border image are both from Very Versailles stamp set. I used Highland Heather ink (#147103) and Smokey Slate ink (#147113). I punched this with the Posted For You punch (#152709) and then attached it to a piece of Highland Heather card. The sentiment was then attached using Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The butterflies are from the Positive Thoughts stamp set (#151490) and cut with the co-ordinating die from the Nature’s Thoughts Dies (#153586). I used VersaMark (#102283) and Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109131) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I coloured the butterflies with Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends (#154887). Stampin Dimensioanls were used to attach the butterflies and I added the Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#144220) to the butterflies and sentiment.

It’s the weekend already. Where do the weeks go?

Poinsettia Petals Bundle sneak peek

Hello friends,

Here’s a sneak peek of some of the beautiful products from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalogue. I just love the Poinsettia Place Suite (#p155109). The suite consists of stamps, dies, embellishments, designer paper and ribbon.

The Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper (#153487) was attached to the Real Red card (#106578), then to the Very Vanilla base card (#106550). I dry embossed a piece of the Red Velvet Paper (#153490) using the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder (#152725) and attached that to the bottom of the card. I wrapped the Real Red 3/8” Double-Stitched Satin Ribbon (#151155) around the card. The sentiment and poinsettias are stamped with images from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set (#153475). The sentiment is stamped with Real Red ink (#147084) and cut with a Stitched So Sweetly Die (#151820). I stamped the poinsettia images using VersaMark (#102283) onto the Red Velvet Paper (#153490) and added White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109132) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I wasn’t sure if this would work on the Velvet paper. The embossing powder became lighter as I heated it but I was very happy with the results. The flowers were cut with the Poinsettia Dies (#153522) and the layers were assembled using Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The Beaded Pearls (#153534) were added to the flower centre, also using glue dots. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the poinsettia and sentiment.

Stay safe & keep crafting!!

Sailing Home stamp set

Welcome friends,

The Sailing Home stamp set (#c149457) is a great set for masculine cards with it’s nautical theme.

I dry embossed the Whisper White card front (#106549) using the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder (#152700). I lightly daubered over the embossed card with Seaside Spray ink (#150083), then spritzed the card with Frost White Shimmer Paint (#147046). This was attached to the Misty Moonlight card (#153086) which was attached to the Whisper White base card. The small piece of Designer Paper is from the 6”x6” 2020-2022 In Color DSP (#153070). I cut a Whisper White rectangle with a Stitched Rectangles Die (#151820) and dry embossed this with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder (#151775). I stamped the lighthouse and “congrats” from the Sailing Home stamp set using Misty Moonlight ink (#153118). When I stamped the lighthouse I stamped it using the Stamparatus (#148187), so that I could re-stamp it with VersaMark (#102283) and add the Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109130) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This is currently my favourite technique to emboss with any coloured ink and clear embossing powder. I cut the sentiment and the light house with the co-ordinating dies from the Smooth Sailing Dies (#149576).  The sentiment and lighthouse were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Hope you can have a crafty day.

Forever Fern Bundle

Hello & welcome,

Instead of the traditional colours on these leaves from the Forever Ferns stamp set (#152559) I have used the blue and silver tones.

I attached the Subtles 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#153072) to the Whisper White base card (#106549). I added a small piece of the Silver Foil Sheet (#132178) to the bottom of the card. I firstly dry embossed this with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder (#152718). I also dry embossed a piece of Whisper White card with one of the Meadow Moments Embossing Folders (#153126). All the stamped leaves have been heat embossed. I used Silver Emboss Powder (#109131) for 2 of the leaves. For the other leaves, I stamped each with a coloured ink - Misty Moonlight (#153118), Balmy Blue (#147105) and Seaside Spray (#150085). Then I re-stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and added Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109130) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I used the Stamparatus (#148187) for the stamping. All the stamped leaves and  3 “leaves” from Silver Foil Sheet were cut with the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714). The sentiment is from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and also Silver embossed. This was cut with a die from the Ornate Frames Dies (#150664) as well as the Silver Foil under the sentiment. I added 3 Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#150457) to the card. Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the leaves and sentiment.

Enjoy your weekend!!

Ornate Borders Dies

Hello friends,

Here is a very simple card using one of the Ornate Borders Dies (#152724).

I cut the border with the die on the Whisper White card (#106549), then I dry embossed the remainder of the card with the gorgeous Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder (#152702). I wrapped the Magenta Madness 1/4” Ribbon (#153623) around the card front and attached the white card to the Magenta Madness base card (#153085). “Thank You” from the Boho Indigo Product Medley (#153132) was stamped with Magenta Madness ink (#153117) and cut with a die from the Ornate Frames Dies (#150664).

As I said, a very simple card but elegant using these beautiful products.

Have a fantastic weekend.

Boho Indigo Product Medley

Hi,

The Boho Indigo Product Medley (#153132) has almost everything you need to make a card or scrapbook page. It includes stamps, dies, paper and accessories.

The Whisper White card front (#106549) was dry embossed with the beautiful Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder (#152702). This was attached to the Night of Navy card (#106577), then attached to the Whisper White base card. I cut the designer papers from the Boho Indigo papers using the Stitched Triangles Dies (#152710) and glued these to the card with the Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). The jar, small flowers, the image on the jar and thank you are all from Boho Indigo stamp set and stamped with Night Of Navy ink (#147110). The leaves from the Silver Foil sheet (#132178), the jar and flowers are all cut with dies from this product medley. The sentiment was cut with a Tasteful Labels Die (#152886). Pearl Basic Jewels (#144219) were added to the flowers and Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897) was used to add glitter to the flowers and top of the jar.

By The Dock masculine card

Welcome everyone,

Today’s masculine card is made with the By the Dock stamp set (#c151622) and the co-ordinating Dockside Dies (#151618).

The base card is Whisper White (#106549) and the Terra-Cotta Tile card (#150890) is the next layer, followed by the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (#152494). For the boat I dry embossed a piece of Whisper White card with the Subtle 3D embossing Folder (#151775), then stamped the boat with Gray Granite ink (#147118). I would normally stamp first but I wanted the stamped image not to be perfectly stamped for an old worn look which is what I achieved. The boat and oars were cut with the Dockside Dies. “Happy Birthday” is also from the By The Dock stamp set. I used the Tasteful Labels Dies (#152886) to cut the 3 labels for the sentiment. Gray Granite card (#147008) was used for the bottom label, Terra-cotta Tile card for the next label and Whisper White for the top label. I added the corners from the Antiqued Corners & Slides (#152471).

Enjoy your day.

Many Layered Blossoms Dies

Hello everyone,

As I said a couple of days ago, I love the variety that can be achieved with the Blossoms In Bloom Bundle (#p154123). I have only used the dies on this card from this bundle but it looks so effective in gold & black, and even better in real life.

I dry embossed a piece of Very Vanilla card (#106550) with the beautiful Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder (#152702) and attached this to the Very Vanilla base card. I used the Many Layered Dies (#152684) to cut the Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) and the Basic Black card (#121688). I had adhered the Adhesive Sheets (#152334) to the back of both these papers before cutting. The black card was attached to the gold foil, then this was attached to the card front. “Thinking Of You” is from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set (#c149298) and stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129), then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). A die from the Tasteful Labels Dies (#152886) cut the sentiment and this was attached to the Basic Black circle which was cut with a Layering Circles Die (#151770) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

Enjoy whatever you are doing today, hopefully something crafty!!

Many Mates Bundle

Hello friends,

The background for this card is cut with the Many Medallions Dies (#153584), which is part of the Many Mates Bundle (#c154083).

This die cut piece and the base card are Very Vanilla (#106550). I wrapped the Just Jade 1/4” ribbon (#153621) which is one of the  2020-2022 In Colors,  around the die cut. I also cut another piece of Very Vanilla card with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies (#151690) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The laser cut piece from the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#152493) was attached to the rectangular piece, followed by another piece of Very Vanilla card with the sentiment. This sentiment is from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and stamped with Just Jade ink (#153115).

I hope you are enjoying the new products in the new Annual catalogue.

Have a great day.

Blossoms In Bloom Bundle

Welcome again,

I am loving the variety which can be achieved with this beautiful bundle - the Blossoms In Bloom bundle (#p154123).

I placed the floral image from the Blossoms In Bloom stamp set (#p152684) onto the Stamparatus (#148187) and coloured the flowers by daubering the colour onto each of the flowers. The reason I used the Stamparatus was in case I hadn’t added enough ink to the stamp and could re-ink and re-stamp it easily. The colour inks I used were Flirty Flamingo (#147052), Daffodil Delight (#147094), Coastal Cabana (#147097), Seaside Spray (#150085) and Highland Heather (#147103). Then I cut the Champagne Foil Sheet (#144748) which I had backed with the Adhesive Sheets (#152334). This was cut with the Many Layered Blossoms Die (#154123), then attached to the card. The sentiment is also from the Blossoms In Bloom stamp set and stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) and cut with a Tasteful Labels Die (#152886). The designer paper is from the Subtles 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#153072). I finished the card by adding the glitter to the flowers using the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897). I think this is one of my favourite tools at the moment as I seem to use it on nearly every card I make. It also shows up much better in real life than when photographed.

I hope your weekend has been fun and productive.

Tasteful Touches

Hello everyone,

Here I have combined the Tasteful Touches stamp set (#152562) with the Forever Fern Bundle (#154094).

I stamped the flowers with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099), then re-stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and added Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109130) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I then coloured the petals with Purple Posy Stamping Blends (#154896) and Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends (#154887). The flowers were fussy cut. I stamped the leaves from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559) using Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) and Granny Apple Green (#147095). The Garden Green (#108605) leaves were cut with the Forever Flourishing dies (#152714). I used Brass Foil Sheet (#153057) for the leaves under the flowers. These were also cut with a die from the Forever Flourishing dies. “Hello” is from the Tasteful Touches stamp set and I used Highland Heather ink (#147103). This was cut with a Tasteful Touches Labels die (#152886). The flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). A Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewel (#151193) was added to the sentiment. 

The base card is Purple Posy (#150887), the next layer is Gorgeous Grape (#147011), followed by Whisper White (#106549).

I hope you are enjoying a crafty weekend.

Boho Indigo Product Medley

Hello friends,

At first glance at the Boho Indigo Product Medley (#153132), you probably wouldn’t expect a card which doesn’t have any blue in it. However there are dry embossed Very Vanilla card, gold die cut flowers and green & gold leaves included in this set and I have used some for today’s card.

The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550), then the next layer is Garden Green (#108605). The dry embossed card is the top layer. I stamped the sentiment from the Very Versailles stamp set (#149275) using Garden Green ink (#147089), onto the label from the product medley. The Gold Trim from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack (#152475) was wrapped around the card front. I attached the gold foil flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The green & gold leaves were glued to the card with the Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). The gold laser-cut leaves are from the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#152493) and also glued. Gold Glitter Enamel Dots (#152155) were added to the card, flower and sentiment.

This is an easy card to make as all the pieces are cut ready to assemble.

Have a crafty day!!

Game On

Hi,

Here’s another card using the Game On stamp set (#15246), and great for the card enthusiasts. The card and dice images are both from this set.

The base card is Whisper White (#106549) and the DSP is from the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (#152494). I stamped the cards with Real Red ink (#147084), using the Stamparatus (#148187). I then re-stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and added Clear Embossing Powder (#109130) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). This Whisper White card and the Real Red card were both cut with dies from the Stitched So Sweetly dies (#151690). “It’s Your Day” is from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and also stamped with Real Red ink. The die to cut this is from the Tasteful Labels Dies (#152886). The dice were stamped with VersaMark and Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109131), then fussy cut and attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Enjoy your day!
