Painted Collage Suite Collection

 Hello friends,

Firstly, I may not have any posts for a couple of days as I have a lot happening and we are having new carpet laid, which means a lot of furniture to move and trying to find places to put it. I will see what I can do.

I have used the Painted Collage Suite Collection (#169775) for this card. I like the abstract & artistic designs in the Painted Collage Designer Series Paper (#169761) and will make some great masculine cards.

The leaves were cut with the Notes Of Collage dies (#169768) from Secret Sea card (#165296), backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and attached to the DSP.

I tore the bottom edge of the Secret Sea paper from the Mulberry Specialty Paper (#169737) and attached this to the Cajun Craze card (#121683), then attached it to the Very Vanilla card base (#166785).

I cut the Golden Glow card (#167686) with another die from the Notes Of Collage dies and attached this to the card. This was also backed with Adhesive sheet.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Birthday Shoutout stamp set (#169840) and stamped with Secret Sea ink (#165285). This was cut with a Notes Of Collage die and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Dandelion Glow Bundle

 Hello everyone,

The gorgeous Dandelion Glow Bundle (#170700), consists of the Dandelion Glow Hot Foil Dies (#170699) and the Dandelion Glow stamp set (#170697), so there are so many possibilities with this set.

The Hot Foil dies also includes cutting dies to match the dies and the stamps, as well as an extra die for the detailed leaves that I cut from Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and attached to the card front. I like to use the adhesive sheet with any detailed dies making it easier to attach the die cuts to the card.

I stamped the dandelions from the stamp set with Bubble Bath ink (#161664) onto Basic White card (#166781). I stamped the little pieces of dandelion with Gray Granite ink (#147118) which I stamped off for a lighter image.

I hot foiled the 3 dandelions with Silver Opal Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls (#170554). This foil picks up a variety of colours, depending on the light. These were foiled on Highland Heather card (#147010), Bubble Bath card (#161727) and Fresh Freesia card (#155614), then cut with the co-ordinating dies.

“Make a Wish” is from the Birthday Shoutout stamp set (#169840) and stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099). I cut this with a die from the Extraordinary Life dies (#167718). This die cuts the little heart at the same time, so I then cut the Gorgeous Grape card to place under it, turned the piece around and offset it so you could see the Gorgeous Grape under the heart.

The dandelions and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The card front was matted with Gorgeous Grape card and attached to the Basic White base card.

Hot Foil Dies

 Hi friends,

The Reverse Hot Foil Die (#170043) has been used for the leaves, flowers and sentiment on today’s card. This allows you to use the “leftover” foil for a second lot of foiling so you don't waste any of the beautiful foil. You get the reverse of the first foiling, for example, with the sentiment the original foiling would be red for the words with a white background, and the second foiling is white words & red background.

The leaves at the top of the card are from the Verdant Filigree Hot Foil Dies (#170713) and foiled with Green Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls (#170555). The flowers & 2 small leaves are from the Arched Elegance Hot Foil Dies (#170693) and the sentiment is from the Classic Greetings Hot Foil Dies (#170042). These were foiled with the Red Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls (#170552). All of the images were cut with the co-ordinating cutting dies in each of the sets.

The Basic White card front (#166781) was dry embossed with the retired Birch Wood embossing folder. The leaves at the top were taped to the card front and the flowers & sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Mini Glue Dots (#103683) were used to attach the 2 small leaves at the bottom.

The card front was matted with the red from the Timeless Metallic Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168548) the attached to the Basic White base card.

The retired gems from the Tinsel Gems Four Pack were added to complete the card.

Arched Elegance Hot Foil Dies

 Hello again friends,

Another beautiful Hot Foil Die is the Arched Elegance Hot Foil Die (#170693) which I have used for today’s card.

I hot foiled the floral arch and extra flowers & leaves with the Black Stampin’ Hot Foil Roll (#170710). The outline of the floral arch and the extra flowers & leaves were cut with the cutting dies. The dies don't cut the inside of the floral arch so I fussy cut that.

I die cut the arch in the Basic White card (#166781) from another die from the same set, then dry embossed the card with the Rustic Check Embossing Folder (#168442). I attached this white card to a piece of the Shimmering Stripes Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168197) using Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). This was then matted with Gorgeous Grape card (#147011) and attached to the Basic White base card.

The flowers were coloured with Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends (#155518) and Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends (#154887) with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) for the centres. Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885) were used for the leaves.

I used Mini Glue Dots (#103683) to attach the floral arch to the card front and the individual flowers & leaves to the Shimmering Stripes Specialty DSP.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Birthday Shoutout stamp set (#169840) and stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099), then cut with a die from the Stitched Stocking dies (#168230). The sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The card was finished by adding the Pearl Adhesive-backed Faceted Dots (#169862) and using Clear Wink Of Stella  (#141897) on the flowers.

The 3 larger stars were cut from Azure Afternoon card (#161728), Shaded Spruce card (#147006) and Cherry Cobbler card (#121681) and the small stars from Daffodil Delight card (#121680).

The large stars were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and I used Mini Glue Dots (#103683) for the small stars.

Timeless Celebrations Bundle

 Hello again everyone,

The Timeless Celebrations Bundle (#169859) includes the Timeless Celebrations stamp set (#169853) and the Timeless Celebrations Hybrid Embossing Folder (#169858). The hybrid embossing folder also includes all the dies and one of the dies fits into the folder to cut & emboss at one time. The folder & die can be used separately as normal, so lots of choices.

I used the Hybrid folder & die to cut & emboss the Basic White card (#166781) and only used the 4 edge pieces for this card. These were taped to a piece of the Gold Striped Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper (#169735). This was then attached to the Basic White base card.

I stamped the floral images from the stamp set with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) and cut it with the co-ordinating die. I then realised this co-ordinated with the embossed image from the centre of the Embossing folder so I then embossed the 3 stamped images. These were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Celebrate” is from the Classic Greetings Hot Foil Dies (#170042) and “Have A Lovely Day” is from the Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foil Dies (#170052). These were hot foiled with the Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil (#170066) and cut with the co-ordinating cutting dies. These were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Heart Mix Hot Foil Die Bundle

The Heart Mix Hot Foil Die Bundle (#170707) consists of the Heart Mix Hot Foil Die (#170706) and the Heart Mix Decorative Masks (#170705).

This die is a large die with a variety of sizes of hearts. I hot foiled the hearts with the Light Pink Stampin’ Hot Foil Roll (#170068) onto Basic White card (#166781). I then used the number 5 mask to colour the hearts using Blending Brushes (#153611) for the larger hearts and Sponge Daubers (#133773) for the smaller hearts. I used Bubble Bath ink (#161664), Berry Burst ink (#147143) and Melon Mambo ink (#147051).

Next I hot foiled with the leftover foil and the Reverse Hot Foil Die Plate (#170043) to get the solid coloured hearts. I fussy cut 3 of the hearts to use on the card.

For the outline for the sentiment I used a Flourish & Frames Hot Foil Die (#170064) and the Light Pink Stampin’ Hot Foil Roll and cut it with the co-ordinating cutting die from the same set. “Congratulations” from the Timeless Celebrations stamp set (#169853) was stamped with Melon Mambo ink.

The sentiment and 2 of the fussy cut hearts were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and the 3rd heart was attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to add glimmer to the hearts. I used the Gel Pen (#166642) to add highlights to the hearts.

Rainbow Stampin’ Hot Foil Rols

 Hi again everyone,

This is the 3rd card I have made using the shells from the Tide & Treasure Hot Foil Dies (#170712) with just one piece of the gorgeous Rainbow Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls (#170709).

These shells are the ones that don't cut out with the cutting dies so I have fussy cut them. I have used another piece of the Rainbow Foil for the sentiment from the Classic Greetings dies (#170042) which was cut with the co-ordinating cutting die. This is using the Reverse Plate (#170043) with the 2nd foiling.

The Balmy Blue card front (#147007) was dry embossed with the retired Birch Wood embossing folder  and attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

The shells and sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

An easy card when most of the work is already done.

Tide & Treasures Hot Foil Dies

 Hi friends,

Today I am using the shells from the Tide & Treasures Hot Foil Dies (#170712) that were left from  yesterday’s card. The shells are part of one large die and the cutting dies cut out 6 of the shells, so I was left with the uncut shells which I fussy cut for this card.

I used the Rainbow Stampin’ Hot Foil roll (#170709) and this image is using the foil with the Reverse Plate (#170043) after the original image was foiled. “Happy Birthday” from the Classic Greetings Hot Foil dies (#170042) was also hot foiled with the Rainbow Foil.

The shells were taped to the Shimmering Stripes Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168197), then attached to the Basic White base card (#166781). The sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

An easy card when most of the work is already done.
