Brushed Bouquet

Hello my friends,

These flowers and leaves are from the Brushed Bouquet bundle (#160474) which consist of the Brushed Bouquet stamp set (#160472) and the Brushed Bouquet Dies (#160473).

Some of the dies cut & emboss at the same time, which you can see with the 2 gold flowers and the green leaves. I have used the gold & green from the Fine Shimmer Paper pack (#160428).

I stamped the flower with Pale Papaya ink (#155670) - using the Stamparatus (#148187) - onto Pale Papaya card (#155669). After cleaning the stamp and without moving it, I re-inked the stamp with VersaMark (#102283) and stamped on top of the first image. I then sprinkled this with Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). I then stamped a second image on top just with Pale Papaya ink. The flowers were then cut with the co-ordinating die.

For the card front I used a mask from the Loveliest Layers Decorative Mask (#160517) and applied the Shimmery White Embossing Paste (#145645) with a Palette Knife (#142808). This created all the vertical lines. Once this was dry, which doesn't take long, I turned the mask and applied the Embossing paste again to fill the blank spaces and create the horizontal lines. The card front was attached to the Pale Papaya base card.

The flowers & leaves were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) & Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

The sentiment from Dainty Delight stamp set (#161078) was stamped with Pale Papaya ink then cut with a Stitched Rectangles Die (#151820) and attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Another easy card today, this time using the Decorative Borders stamp set (#160513).

The sentiment is from the Friends Are Like Seashells (#158203) and stamped with Fresh Freesia ink (#155611).

Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper

Hello again,

When you have beautiful designer papers it is so easy to make a beautiful card with very little effort. This DSP is from the Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper (#160834) and is part of Sale-a-bration which unfortunately ends on the 28th February, so time is running out if you want this gorgeous pack.

The scallops are cut with a die from the Penned Flowers (#155557) with Rich Razzleberry card (#119981) and attached to the piece of DSP on the left. This was then attached to the other piece of DSP and then matted with Rich Razzleberry card and attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set (#161815) was stamped with Rich Razzleberry ink (#147091) and cut with a Picture This Die (#155559) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

The leaves were cut with the Around The Bend Dies (#160649) using Granny Apple Green card (#147014) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334).

As I said, a very easy but beautiful card.

Two-Tone Flora

Hello friends,

Sometimes you might not expect to use some colours together but when you see them in a designer paper you realise they do look great together.. that’s how I chose the colours for this card.

The DSP is the Fancy Flora 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#160413) and this was matted with Orchid Oasis card (#159265) and attached to the Basic White base card (#159558).

I dry embossed the Calypso Coral card (#124392) with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317) and attached this to the card. “Happy Birthday” from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (#151595) was stamped with Orchid Oasis ink (#159214). This and the Orchid Oasis card were cut with Beautiful Shapes Dies (#158046).

The flowers from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) were stamped with Orchid Oasis ink. This is a Two-step stamping set, so I stamped the “lines” first, then stamped the full flower using the stamping off method to get a lighter colour. These were cut with the Two-Tone Flora dies (#159181).

The leaves were cut with dies from the Around The Bend (#160649) from Soft Succulent card (#155777) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). The sentiment & flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The embellishments are the Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#144220) which I coloured with Orchid Oasis Stampin’ Blends (#159223). I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the flowers.

Adorable Owls

Hi again everyone,

Just a reminder that Sale-a-bration ends on 28th February so only a few days to go to get those free products (with a qualifying order). The Adorable Owls (#160269) is one of the stamp sets available and I have used one of the adorable owls on this card today.

I stamped the owl with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). The floral image from the Decorative Borders stamp set (#160513) was also stamped with memento ink. The Stampin’ Blends used to colour these images are Sweet Sorbet (#159224), Balmy Blue (#154830), Pumpkin Pie (#154897), 700 & 800 from the Medium Light Natural Tones (#159463), Parakeet Party (#159220), Daffodil Delight (#154883) & Granny Apple Green (#154885).

The corners of the Basic White card & the Sweet Sorbet card (#159266) were punched with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878).

I used 2 of the circles from the Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183) to cut Sweet Sorbet card for the frame round the owl. I also used the larger circle to cut the owl, then this was attached back in place with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The frame was attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

The sentiment is from the Dainty Delight stamp set (#161078) and stamped with Sweet Sorbet ink (#159216). The 2 labels for the sentiment were cut with dies from the Stylish Shapes Dies and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The embellishments are from the Iridescent Pastel Gems (#160429). Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was used to add glimmer to the owl.

Two-Tone Flora

Hello friends,

I like to use subtle colours for Sympathy cards which I have done on this card.

The flowers from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) have been stamped with Pale Papaya ink (#155670). This is a Two Step stamp, so I stamped the finer lines first, then stamped the whole flower. To get the lighter colour for the whole flower I inked the stamp, stamped off, then stamped the flower. I find it easier to stamp the darker colour first so it’s easier to line up the second image. These flowers were cut with a Two-Tone Flora die (#159181).

I adhered Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to the back of the Basic White card (#159228) before cutting the card front with another die from the same set. This was attached to the Basic White base card.

Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) was used for the leaves and these were cut with dies from the Around The Bend dies (#160649). These were also backed with

Adhesive Sheet.

I attached the retired Soft Sea Foam ribbon to the card then attached the flowers with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Glue Dots (#103683). Then the leaves were adhered to the card.

“Heartfelt Sympathy” is from the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436) and stamped with Pale Papaya ink. A die from the Pretty Pillowbox (#156321) was used to cut the sentiment and this was also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The Fine Sparkle Adhesive Backed Gems (now retired) were added to the card, and I used the White Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics (#156310) on the stamins  of the flowers.

Around The Bend

Hi again everyone,

The Around The Bend bundle (#160650) is one of the products used on todays card.

I stamped the line & dots from the Around The Bend stamp set (#160853) onto Basic White card (#159228) with Tahitian Tide ink (#159210). The scallops were cut with a die from the Around The Bend dies (#160649). I then stamped the corner floral image from the Decorative Borders stamp set (#160513) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). This image was coloured with Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blends (#159221), Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends (#159220) and Daffodil Delight (#154883). This white card was attached to the Dry Brushed Metallic 12”x12” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160837). I matted this with Tahitian Tide card (#159262) and attached it to the Basic White base card.

The sentiment from Dainty Delight stamp set (#161078) was stamped with Tahitian Tide ink and a die from the Tailor Made Tags (#155563) was used to cut this. I threaded the Gold Simply Elegant Trim (#155766) through the tag and attached it to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The flower, flower centre, leaves and hearts are all cut with the Around The Bend dies. I used Tahitian Tide card for the flower & hearts and Gold Fine Shimmer Paper  (#160428) for the leaves and flower centre. The leaves & hearts had Adhesive Sheet (#152334) adhered to the back before cutting with the dies.

I added the White Pearlized Enamel Effects (#156310) to the hearts. This does take a bit of time to dry so best to do this last and put the card aside to dry.

Decorative Borders

Hello stamping friends,

I was just going to stamp a simple card today which I have done, but couldn't resist using some dies as well.

I stamped the flowers from the Decorative Borders stamp set (#160513) using Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). The Stampin’ Blends to colour this are Sweet Sorbet (#159224), Granny Apple Green (#154885) and Daffodil Delight (#154883). I added glimmer to the image with Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897).

“Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Sweet Sorbet ink (#159216). This white card and the Sweet Sorbet card (#159266) underneath were cut with dies from the Scalloped Contours dies (#155560). This was attached to the Basic White base card.

A very easy but pretty card.

Queen Bee

Hi again,

The Queen Bee bundle (#160485) consists of the Queen Bee stamp set (#160476) and the Queen Bee Dies (#160484).

The bee was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) onto So Saffron card (#108611). This was heat embossed with Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056) then cut with the co-ordinating die. Happy Birthday was also embossed with Black Powder on Very Vanilla card (#106550). I used the Stitched Rectangles Dies (#151820) to cut the sentiment.

I stamped 2 corners of the Very Vanilla card front with an image from the Decorative Borders stamp set (#160513) using So Saffron ink (#147109). The “words” & splatters are from the Queen Bee stamp set. I stamped the words with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) and the splatters with Sahara Sand ink (#147117) which I stamped off for a lighter image. 

The bee and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I cut the “honeycomb” with a die from the Queen Bee dies using So Saffron card (#108611) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). These adhesive sheets make it so much easier to attach detailed pieces to the card. I added some of the small pieces from the “honeycomb” (which would normally be thrown away) for the embellishments. I used the Clear Wink of Stella (#141897) on the honeycomb & “embellishments”.

The card front was matted with Basic Black card (#121688) and So Saffron card, then attached to the Very Vanilla base card.

Legendary Ride

Hello again,

This motor bike is made with Legendary Ride dies (#160762) and was much easier than I thought it may be.

I used Basic Black card (#121688), 2 colours from the Silver Foil 12”x12” Specialty Pack (#156457) and Real Red card (#106578) to make up the motor bike.

Below are the dies and die cuts used to make the bike.

The base card is Basic White (#159228). I attached a piece of the Ready To Ride 12”x12” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160752) to the Basic White card front and then this was matted with Real Red card.

The Basic White card behind the bike was dry embossed with the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder (#160766) and also matted with Real Red card.

Queen Bee

Welcome again,

These dainty flowers are from the Queen Bee stamp set (#160476) and coloured with Stampin’ Blends.

The flowers were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) on Basic White card (#159228). The Stampin’ Blends to colour these are Soft Succulent (#155521), Fresh Freesia (#155518), Highland Heather (#154887), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Flirty Flamingo (#154884) and Pale Papaya (#155519).

The Queen Bee Dies (#160484) were used to cut these flowers, the leaves, bee and label for the sentiment. I used the Silver Foil (#156457) for the bee and Soft Succulent card (#155777) for the leaves. 

For the card front I used the Rays Of Light Background stamp (#158925) to stamp on the Hello Irresistible 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#161139). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was matted with Soft Succulent card and attached to the Basic White base card.

The Soft Succulent leaves and the bee was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). I usually use this adhesive for all detailed die cuts as it makes it so easy to attach them to the card. The floral images were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

The Silver Simply Elegant Trim (#155766) was attached under the sentiment and the sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#144220) were added to the card.

Hello everyone,

The Sentimental Park bundle (#160567) includes the Sentimental Park stamp set (#160561) and the Sentimental Park Dies (#160566) and used for the flowers and sentiment on this card.

I chose the beautiful Fancy Flora 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#160413) for the card front and this was matted with Orchid Oasis card (#159265) and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

“Thinking Of You” is from the Sentimental Park stamp set and stamped with Orchid Oasis ink (#159214). The flowers were stamped with Orchid Oasis ink, Fresh Freesia ink (#155611) and Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). I stamped the outline of the flowers, then re-stamped the inside with the same ink but stamped off first to give a lighter colour. The flowers, sentiment and the detailed Orchid Oasis die-cut label under the sentiment were all cut with the Sentimental Park Dies. These were then attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The embellishments are the Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls (#160449).

The detailed die cut allows you to slip the sentiment under the 2 corners for a lovely effect.

Irresistible Blooms bundle

Hello friends,

I have been playing with the Irresistible Blooms bundle (#161150) again today which will be available on 1st March. These are part of the new Online exclusives. There are some other products also included in these online exclusive products - DSP, a letter stamp set and a pack of 3 embossing folders. I have used one of the embossing folders on this card.

All the stamped images including the sentiment are from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set (#161140) and I have used Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) on all of them. To heat emboss in any colour, stamp the image with the coloured ink using the Stamparatus (#148187). Clean the stamp making sure not to move the stamp or paper. Re-ink with VersaMark (#102283) and add Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). I used Flirty Flaming ink (#147052) for the sentiment and one flower and Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) for the other flower. The leaves were stamped with Mint Macaron ink (#147106).

The flowers, leaves and the detailed “circle” were cut with the Irresistible Blooms Dies (#161149). I used the Gold Fine Shimmer Paper (#160428) for the card front. After cutting the detailed “circle” I then embossed the Gold card with one of the new Basics 3D Embossing Folders (#161598). There are 3 different designs in this pack of folders. I matted this with Flirty Flamingo card (#141421) and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

I cut the detailed leaves from Mint Macaron card (#138344) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). The flowers and 2 of the stamped leaves were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and I used Mini Glue Dots (#103683) for the other leaf & sentiment.

The Flower Trinkets (#159191) were added to the flower centres and the card, and I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the flowers.

The DSP was matted with Basic Black card (#121688) and attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The trees were stamped with Garden Green ink (#147089), then I stamped again without re-inking to get the lighter coloured trees. These were then cut with the Greatest Journey dies and attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The bike rider was cut from the Silver Foil Specialty Paper (#156457) also using a die from the Greatest Journey. Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals were used to attach this to the card.

Irrresistible Blooms Bundle

Hi & welcome,

I am using the soon to be released Irresistible Blooms Bundle (#161150) on todays card. This is available from 1st March, however demonstrators can purchase these products earlier (which I love).

The flowers from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set (#161140) were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) onto Tahitian Tide card (#159262) and embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554). The Heat Tool (#129056) was used to set the powder. The flowers were then cut with the Irresistible Blooms dies (#161149).

I had backed a piece of the Gold from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428) with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting the leaves using the Irresistible Blooms dies. The Basic White card (#159228) also had Adhesive Sheet attached before cutting with another die. I attached this to the  Dry Brushed Metallic Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160837) and trimmed the die-cut level with the DSP. The DSP was then matted with Tahitian Tide card and attached to the Basic White base card.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set(#158203) and stamped with Tahitian Tide ink (#159210). A die from the Meadow dies (#155852) was used to cut the sentiment.

The flowers and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The Dragonfly Trinket (#160520) is actually silver but because there is gold on the card I decided to colour it with the Bronze Stampin’ Blend (#154922) which gives it the gold look. The other embellishment are the Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels (#158987).

Petal Park

Hello crafty friends,

These flowers have been stamped with the Petal Park stamp set (#160571) and punched with the co-ordinating Petal Park Builder Punch (#160576). These can also be purchased as the Petal Park Bundle (#160577).

The leaves from the stamp set were stamped with VersaMark (#102283), embossed with the White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I coloured the leaves with Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends (#159220) and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885).

I stamped the flowers with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and they were punched with the Petal Park Builder punch. I have coloured these with various colours from the Assortment 1 (#141709) and Assortment 2 (#149014) Watercolor Pencils. I added a small amount of colour to the inside petals and on the tip of some of the petals, then I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to blend the colours. I have also seen this done with the Color Lifter (#144608) from the Stampin’ Blends which achieves the same result, except the Clear Wink Of Stella adds glitter at the same time.

Using a Small Blending Brush (#160518) I lightly applied the Pale Papaya ink (#155670) to the Basic White card front (#159228). The card front was matted with Gorgeous Grape card (#147011).

The sentiment from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set (#158203) was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099) and cut with a Meadow Die (#155852). I threaded the (retired) Gorgeous Grape ribbon through the label & wrapped it around the card front. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) under the sentiment.

The larger flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals and I used Mini Glue Dots (#103683) for the smaller flowers. A Dragonfly Trinket (#160520) and the Flat Adhesive-backed Pearls (#160449) were added to the card.

The designer paper is Like An Animal Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160841) and matted with Sweet sorbet card. The base card is Basic White (#159228).

Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper

Hello stamping friends,

I do love the Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper (#160834) as part of the Sale-a-bration products. This paper co-ordinates with the Dainty Delight Bundle (#160675), (however I have not used that bundle on this card.)

I attached the DSP to the Daffodil Delight card (#121680), then attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The bird and cage are from the Pretty Birds Bundle (#158847) which includes the Pretty Birds stamp set (#158845) and Birdhouse Dies (#158846). The bird was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708), and coloured with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885) and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883). The cage was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I used the Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). The bird & cage were both cut with the Birdhouse dies. I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to give some shimmer to the bird.

I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the cage and Mini Glue Dots (#103683) for the bird.

“Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) and cut with a Potted Succulent die (#154330). This was also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Hello, Irresistable Suite Collection

Hi my friends,

This year, Stampin’ Up! will have some On-line exclusive products (which means they will not be found in any catalogue) and the first one is the gorgeous Hello, Irresistible Suite Collection (#161154). These are available to demonstrators early as usual (one of many perks of being a demonstrator) but will be available to everyone from 1st March. I have just received mine today so have used some of the products on this card.

The 2 pieces of DSP for the background are from the Hello, Irresistible 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#161139). These were cut with the Deckled Rectangles Dies (#159173). Another piece was added to the bottom of the Basic White base card (#159228).

I stamped “Hello” with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094), using the Stamparatus (#148187), then restamped with VersaMark (#102283) and added Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056).

The flowers are also from the DSP and cut with the Irresistible Blooms Dies (#161149). These dies also co-ordinate with the stamps from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set (#161140). The leaves are also cut with these dies and I used the DSP for the leaves.

The embellishments are from the Loose Frosted Dots (#161153) which are also part of this suite. These were glued with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309).

A very easy card which was great when I was running out of time.

There are other products which are also available and will show them on cards over the coming weeks.

Wild & Sweet

Hello again,

I have been asked to make a card with this cute little koala from the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775).

The koala was stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) on Basic White card (#59228). I cut this card and the Mossy Meadow card (#133683) with the Layering Diorama Dies (#155565).

The leaves from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559) were stamped with Mossy Meadow ink (#147111) then cut with the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714).

The Stitched Greenery Die (#155451) was used to create the stitching on the Crumb Cake card (#121685), then this was matted with Mossy Meadow card and attached to the Basic White base card.

The matted koala was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Birthday Wishes” from the Nested Friends stamp set (#160322) was stamped with Mossy Meadow ink and cut with a Beautiful Shapes die (#158046). This was also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Legendary Ride

Hi everyone,

Todays card is a slight variation on yesterdays card. I have used the In The Country stamp set (#160828) for the background again. In fact I have made 2 variations of this card, just to show how you can make a simple card and one slightly stepped up.

The first card I have stamped and coloured the same as yesterdays card. The second card I have just stamped the scenery with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104) and haven’t done any other colouring. 

I dry embossed both the Very Vanilla cards (#106550) with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317). The top card was matted with Granny Apple Green card (#147014) and Basic Black card (#121688). The 2nd card was matted with Pear Pizzaz card (#131290) and Basic Black card. 

Using a small Blending Brush (#160518) I added Balmy Blue ink (#147105) to the sky of the first card.

The Motor Bike is from the Legendary Ride stamp set (#160754) and cut with a die from the Legendary Ride Dies (#160762). These are available as a bundle - Legendary Ride Bundle (#160763).

For the top card I stamped the bike with VersaMark (#102283) and added Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). For the other card I just stamped the bike with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708).

Happy Birthday is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763). I heat embossed the sentiment for top card and used the Memento ink for the other. A Stitched Rectangles Die (#151820) and a die from the Pretty Pillowbox (#156321) were used to cut the sentiments. The bikes and sentiments were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

In The Country stamp set

Hello my friends,

I have used 2 products from Sale-a-bration on this card - In The Country stamp set (#160828) and the Day At The Farm 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#160835).

I stamped the image with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Very Vanilla card (#106550). The Stampin’ Blends used to colour the image are Crumb Cake (#154882), Soft Suede (#154906), Granny Apple Green (#154885), Old Olive (#154892) and Mossy Meadow (#154890). I dry embossed this card with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317). I used Granny Apple Green card (#147014) and Basic Black card (#121688) to double matt the Very Vanilla card. The base card is also Very Vanilla.

The animals are from the Day At The Farm DSP and these were fussy cut. The On The Farm Dies (160660) also co-ordinate with these animals. The On The Farm stamp set (#160652) & dies can be found in the current mini catalogue and co-ordinate with this DSP. The animals were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals  (#144108).

“Happy Birthday” from my favourite set - Go To Greetings (#158763) was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and cut with a Seasonal Labels Die (#156299). Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used for the sentiment.

There are some additional products added to Sale-a-bration. You can see them here

Seaside Bay Bundle

Hi friends,

The Seaside Bay Bundle (#160445) and the By The Bay 6”x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160434) have been used on this card. Some of the dies from the Seaside Bay dies (#160444) also co-ordinate with some of the images on the DSP which is always a bonus.

I dry embossed the Balmy Blue card (#147007) with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317). Then I attached the By The Bay DSP on the left side. Another piece of this DSP was matted with Night Of Navy card (#106577) and attached to the card front. The base card is Basic White (#159228).

The birds are from the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436). The larger bird was stamped with Night Of Navy ink (#147110). The small birds were stamped with Petal Pink ink (#147108), Balmy Blue ink (#147105) and Crumb Cake (#147116). The birds, clam shell, shells and seaweed were all cut with the Seaside Bay dies. I used the Fine Shimmer Paper (#160428) for the seaweed, Gold Foil (#132622) for the clam shell and Crumb Cake card (#121685) for the shells. I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the Crumb Cake shells.

I also used Clear Wink Of Stella on the large bird. There was some “bleeding” of the ink which gave a lighter colour blue on the bird which is just what I wanted.

The sentiment from Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Night Of Navy ink and cut with a die from the Cracker & Treat Box Dies (#159182).

The birds, sentiment and small shell were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Mini Glue Dots (#103683) were used for the clam shell and I had Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the Fine Shimmer Paper.

Thanks to everyone who have enquired how my husband’s operation went last week. It went well and he is now home with lots of rehab to continue.
