Cheerful Daisies

Hello stamping friends,

A lovely bright & cheerful card using the Cheerful Daisies Bundle (#161297).




I cut the daisies from the Cheerful Daisies dies (#161296) using Basic White card (#159228) and Gold Foil Sheets (#132622). I stamped the daisies from the Cheerful Daisies stamp set (#161290) with Crushed Curry ink (#147087), Azure Afternoon ink (#161663) and Flirty Flamingo ink (#147052). I attached the stamped daisies to the Gold Foil daisies with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755) and offsetting them to see some of the Gold Foil. I cut the leaves off the stamped daisies.

I cut the Basic White card front with an Around The Bend die (#160649), then I embossed this with the Splatters from the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder (#157980). This was taped to the Azure Afternoon from the White Centre Specialty Paper (#161748), then attached to the Basic White base card.

The sentiment is from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283). This will be available from 6th September in the upcoming mini catalogue. I used Azure Afternoon ink, then cut it with a Stylish Shapes die (#159183). The sentiment & flowers were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) & Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) were added to finish the card.

Seaside Bay

Hello again friends,

I am back after a short break. I had a relaxing time catching up with friends in Hervey Bay which inspired this card using the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436).





I stamped the bird with VersaMark (#102283) on Basic White card (#159228) and added Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) which needs to be set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I cut the bird with a Seaside Bay die (#160444).

The shells also from the Seaside Bay stamp set were stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#147116). The card front was then dry embossed with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317). This was matted with the Azure Afternoon card (#161728) and attached to the Basic White base card.

I used a die from the Chic dies (#158815) to cut another piece of Basic White card for the detailed die cut piece, which was backed with Adhesive sheet (#152334) and this was attached to the card front.

“Feel Better Soon” is from the Wanted To Say dies (#161594). The background was cut from the Silver from the Silver Foil Specialty pack (#156457) and I used Azure Afternoon card for the top layer of the sentiment. This was also backed with Adhesive Sheet and then attached to silver card.

The sentiment and bird were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Timeless Arrangements

Hi stamping friends,

I have used the Timeless Arrangements dies (#161525) for all the die cut pieces on this card.





For the card front I used the Shimmery White Embossing Paste (#145645) with an Artistic Mix Decorative Mask (#159178). This was applied with a Palette Knife (#142808). After allowing this to dry I punched the corners of this and the Coastal Cabana card (#131302) with the Very Best Trio punch (#159878) and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The card stock used to cut the leaves are Pool Party (#124391), Daffodil Delight (#121680), Crushed Curry (#131288), Lemon Lolly (#161729), Pecan Pie (#161726) and Copper Clay (#161730). All these were backed with Adhesive Sheets (#152334).

TIP: Wash the mask & palette knife as soon as you are finished with them as the paste will dry very quickly. Just need water to wash them.

Delightful Doily Hybrid Dies & Embossing Folder

Hi everyone,

I have used the Delightful Doily Hybrid dies (#161286) which includes an embossing folder for the background and the cut out doily.




I used the embossing folder to dry emboss the Fresh Freesia card from the White Centre Specialty Paper (#161748). I then used the die and embossing folder to cut and emboss the Basic White card (#159228) for the doily. This was attached to the card front with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

“Celebrate” was cut with a Wanted To Say Die (#161594). I used Gorgeous Grape card (#147011) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and adhered it the card.

One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper

Hi again friends,

The One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper (#162118) has a great range of scenes, and I have used one on this easy card.




I cut one of the holographic papers from the Holographic Trio Specialty Paper (#161744) with a Radiating Stitches die (#161595). I matted the DSP with Night Of Navy card (#106577) and attached this to the Holographic paper.

I also used the holographic paper which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to cut the tree using a die from the Horse & Sleigh Dies (#162125) and attached this to the card.

“Joyful” is from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set (#162119) and this was stamped with Night Of Navy ink (#147110). A Cracker & Treat Box die (#159182) was used to cut the sentiment. Silver Trim from the Silver & Gold Trim Combo (#161633) was threaded through the label, then this was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

As I said, a very easy card.

Earthen Textures

Hi my friends,

I have seen many variations of these “shutter cards” so this is my take on it.




The Very Vanilla card front (#106550) was dry embossed with the the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder (#161600). I cut a piece of the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper (#161503) with a retired Beautiful Shapes Die and taped it to the card front. I cut 5mm strips of Misty Moonlight card (#153086) and glued them to the card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). I started from the top point and went clockwise around around the DSP. The strips were a bit longer than required so the excess was cut off after they were glued to the card. The card front was matted with Misty Moonlight card then attached to the Very Vanilla Base card.

“Happy Birthday” is from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283) and stamped with Misty Moonlight ink (#153118). A Sending Die (#159271) was used to cut the sentiment.

The vase & leaves are from the Earthen Elegance stamp set (#161504) using Misty Moonight ink & Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). I fussy cut the vase and the leaves were cut with an Earthen Textures Die (#161513). I cut a piece of Adhesive Sheet (#152334) backed Daffodil Delight card (#121680) with another die from that set. This was cut in half and attached to each side of the vase.

The vase, one set of leaves and the sentiment were all attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The other leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The embellishments are from the Tinsel Gems Three-Pack (#161624).

Dainty Delight

Hello friends,

All these flowers are from the Dainty Delight stamp set (#161078) and Dainty Delight dies (#160674).




I stamped 2 of the images with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). These were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Daffodil Delight (#154883), Highland Heather (#154887), Bubble Bath (#161675), Lost Lagoon (#161680), Sweet Sorbet (#159224) & Azure Afternoon (#161672).

The card front is from the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper (#161157). I stamped on this DSP with another image from the stamp set using Lost Lagoon ink (#161678). I cut a piece of the Vellum Basics Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160839) with a circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183) and attached it to the card. The card front was matted with Lost Lagoon card (#133686) and attached to the Basic White base card.

I used Lost Lagoon card, Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and Flirty Flamingo card (#141421) for the die cut flowers & leaves.

“Just A Note” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Lost Lagoon ink then cut with a Tailor Made Tags die (#155563). I threaded the Gold from the Silver & Gold Trim Combo Pack (#161633) through the hole in the tag. I used Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108), Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to attach all the elements.

I used the Copper from the Metallic Enamel Effects Basics (#161610) for the centre of the 2 yellow flowers. I used some retired embellishments to finish the card.

Decorative Masks

Hi stamping friends,

I have used 2 of the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks (#159178) for the background on todays card. These 2 masks work together or they can be used individually.



Firstly I used Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) and a Blending Brush (#153611) with the first mask then lined up the second mask and used Old Olive ink (#147090). Next time I will use the darker ink first as it will be easier to line up the images.





I used a piece of the Vellum Basics Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160839) on top of the card front as I only wanted a subtle look.

I cut a label from the Designer Tags dies (#159165) from Basic White card (#159228) then dry embossed this with the Timber Embossing Folder (#156406). I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283), (which will be available in the next Mini Catalogue from 6th September), with Old Olive ink. This was taped to the label.

The leaves were cut with a Dainty Delight die (#160674), using Pecan Pie card (#161726) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and attached to the card.

The corners of the card front were punched with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878), then this was attached to the Pecan Pie card. The base card is Basic White.

Earthen Textures

Hello everyone,

Todays card is a very easy one. The dies to cut the circles are from the upcoming catalogue. They are the Deckled Circles dies (#162286) and there are 14 dies in this set with the largest one 14.6cm (5-3/4”) in diameter and the smallest 2.5cm (1”), so there is a great range of sizes.



I stamped the leaves/twigs from the Earthen Textures stamp set (#161504) using Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) and Granny Apple Green ink (#147095) onto Basic White card (#159228).

The sentiment is also from a new stamp set - So Sincere (#162283) and stamped with Granny Apple Green ink. The circles were cut with the Deckled Circles dies. I attached the sentiment to the Daffodil Delight (#121680) circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). This was then taped to the card front.

I used Granny Apple Green card (#147014) to matt the card front and attached it to the Daffodil Delight base card.

I used Clear Wink of Stella (#141897) on the stamped Daffodil Delight leaves and added the Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels (#158987) to finish the card.

The size of the finished card is 12 x12cm. The Granny Apple green card is 10.5 x10.5cm and the white card is 9.5 x 9.5cm.

This stamp is from a host set called Calm & Quiet (#161611).




I stamped the image twice with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). I cut part of one of the the images with a Nested Essentials die (#161597). I coloured the images with various Stampin’ Blends - Poppy Parade (#152958), Balmy Blue (#154803), Crumb Cake (#154882), Granny Apple Green (#154885), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Pecan Pie (#161674), Lost Lagoon (#161680) & Soft Sea Foam (#154902).

Darling Details

Hello friends,

I have used the Darling Details Bundle (#161371) for the frame, flowers and leaves on this card.





The stamp set in this bundle is Darling Details (#161368) and the dies (except for the sentiment) are also Darling Details (#161370). The die for the sentiment is from the All That Dies (#159078).

The leaves were stamped with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) onto Soft Sea Foam card (#147012). For the yellow flower I stamped Lemon Lolly ink (#161666) onto Lemon Lolly card (#161729), then reinked (using the Stamparatus) with VersaMark (#102283) and added Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) which was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The pink flower was stamped with Bubble Bath ink (#161664) onto Bubble Bath card (#161727) and also clear embossed. The detailed flowers are cut from Fresh Freesia card (#155614) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334).

For the background I used Very Vanilla card (#106550). I spread the gold from the Metallic Enamel Effects (#161610) using a Palette Knife (#142808) onto the card and allowed it to dry. I didn’t want a perfect covering of the gold. Once it was dry I dry embossed it with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder (#161600).

I cut the frame with another die from the Darling Details using Lemon Lolly card. This was attached to the background, then attached to the Very Vanilla base card. The leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and I used Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) to attach the flowers and sentiment. The sentiment was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). The Brush Brass Butterflies (#158136) were added to the card.

Season Of Chic

Hello again friends,

I have had a very busy week so sorry I have missed a couple of posts but here I am again. I have used a mix of products on this card.





The flowers from the Season Of Chic stamp set (#158810) were stamped with Lemon Lolly ink (#161666) and cut with a co-ordinating die from the Chic dies (#158815). I then cut the Lemon Lolly card (#161729) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) with another Chic die and this was attached to the stamped flower.

I dry embossed the Basic White card front (#159228) with the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder (#160766) but I used the back of the embossing. I cut the corners with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878). The card front was matted with the Lemon Lolly card then attached to the Basic White base card.

I cut the 3 circles with the Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183) and taped these together and attached them to the card. The sentiment from the Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) was stamped with Wild Wheat ink (#161651).

The flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves were cut with dies from the Timeless Arrangements dies (#161525) and the Lazy Days dies (#161342). I used Soft Sea Foam card (#147012), Wild Wheat card (#161734) and (retired) Brushed Metallic Gold Foil. All these were backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) making them easy to attach to the card.

I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to add shimmer to the flowers and then added the Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels (#158987) to the flower centres and the sentiment.

Waves Of Inspiration

Hello friends,

For todays card I have used the Waves Of Inspiration stamp set (#158833). This would be a great masculine card.




I stamped the wave from the stamp set with Boho Blue ink (#161650) onto Basic White card (#159228). I embossed this with the Cascading Ruffles Embossing Folder (#159169). I cut Blueberry Bushel card (#146991) and Azure Afternoon card (#161728) with 2 different dies from the Waves dies (#158840). These cards were backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting, then attached easily to the card front.

Translucent Florals

Hello stamping friends,

I have stamped the flowers & leaves from the Translucent Florals stamp set (#162243) onto Vellum (#106584). This stamp set & dies will be available from 6th September in the upcoming Mini catalogue.




The inks used are Berry Burst (#147143), Orchid Oasis (#159214) and Garden Green (#147089). When stamping on the vellum, the ink takes a bit longer to dry. You can use the Heat Tool (#129056) to ensure the ink is dry. The flowers & leaves were cut with the Translucent Florals Dies (#162252). I also cut a piece of the Orchid Oasis card (#159265) and Berry Burst card (#144249) with the flower die and attached the vellum flowers on top but slightly offset. These were attached together with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

I dry embossed the lower part of the Basic White card (#159228) with one of the Geometric Patterns Embossing Folder (#161599). Using a Palette Knife (#142808) and an Artistic Mix Decorative Mask (#159178) I applied the Shimmery White Embossing Paste (#145645) to the top part of the White card. This was matted with the Orchid Oasis card (#159265). The White Glittered Organdy Ribbon (#156408) was wrapped around the cardfront then this was attached to the Basic White base card.

The Orchid Oasis flower and the leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots and the Berry Burst flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The sentiment is from the Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) and stamped with Orchid Oasis ink. A Nested Essentials die (#161597) was used to cut the sentiment. The Flat adhesive-Backed Pearls (#160449) were added to the card.

Inked & Tiled Bundle

Hi & welcome,

This floral image is from the Inked & Tiled stamp set (#161158).




I used the Stamparatus to stamp the image as I wanted to use 3 different inks. When I inked the stems I covered the flowers with a sticky note, then removed it before stamping. I used Mossy Meadow ink (#147111) for the leaves & stems. I then covered the stems and inked the flowers with Highland Heather ink (#147103) and Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099) using the same method.

I used an Irresistible Blooms die (#161149) to cut the detailed piece. I had Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back where I was cutting this so it was easy to attach to the base card. The base card is Highland Heather (#147010).

“Happy Birthday” is from the Inked & Tiled stamp set and stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink then punched with a punch from the Inked & Tiled Punch Pack (#161167). There are 2 punches in this pack. I attached the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and added the embellishments from the Tinsel Gems three pack (#161624).

Don’t forget if you earned any Bonus Day credits in July it is now time to use those credits.
