Eyelet Blooms Die

Hello again friends,

Here is a variation of a card I posted on 16th May (using the Moonlit Flora Suite). Today I have used a variety of products including the beautiful Eyelet Blooms die (#167984) for the card front.

The Basic White card front (#166781) was then matted with Bubble Bath card (#161727) and attached to the Basic White base card.

I cut 3 pieces of the Splash Of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167200) with a die from the Paradise Garden dies (#167120). These were attached to a piece of Window Sheet (#142314), then I cutnthe circle with a Stylish Shapes die (#159183). Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach this to the card.

The butterflies from All Aflutter stamp set (#167564) were heat embossed with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I then coloured them with Stampin’ Blends - Bubble Bath (#161675), Fresh Freesia (#155518) and Highland Heather (#154887). The co-ordinating All A Flutter punch (#167569) was used to punch the butterflies.

The Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) was used for the leaves which was cut with a Fern & Flora die (#168991). This was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and attached to the card. The Butterflies were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Congratulations” from the Extraordinary Flora stamp set (#165243) was also Gold embossed and cut with a die from the Paradise Garden. This was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Exciting Times Bundle

Hi again everyone,

Butterflies & purple are 2 of my favourite things so have used them on this card.

The card front is from the Splash Of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167200) and matted with Gorgeous Grape card (#147011). The basecard is Basic White (#166781).

The leaves were cut with the Delicate Whispers dies (#167505) from Gorgeous Grape card and Silver Foil Sheet (#163387). Both these cards were backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), so easily attached to the card front.

I stamped the frame from the Exciting Times stamp set (#167875) using VersaMark (#102283) and I added the Silver powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678), then set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The inside was punched with the co-ordinating Rounded Rectangle punch (#167880). The sentiment from the Exciting Times stamp set was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099). The frame was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and the sentiment was taped.

The butterflies are from the All Aflutter stamp set (#167564). I stamped the background of the butterflies with Highland Heather ink (#147103), then silver embossed the detailed butterflies. These were punched with the co-ordinating All Aflutter Punch (#167569). The butterflies were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Splash Of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper

Hi again,

Today I have highlighted the Splashes Of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167200).

I punched the DSP with the Rounded Rectangle Punch (#167880). The sentiment is from the Exciting Times stamp set (#167875). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I added the Gold Powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was also punched with the Rounded Rectangle punch.

I attached the sentiment and the DSP to Gold Foil Sheet (#132622).This piece of Gold foil was cut 9cmx13.4cm. After attaching the DSP, I cut off the pieces of DSP level with the edges of the gold. I then attached this to another piece of gold foil (9.5cmx13.9cm). I found this easier to get the edges lined up, but it looks like one piece of gold foil. This was attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

The butterflies from the All Aflutter stamp set (#167564) were also Gold heat embossed. These were punched with the All Aflutter punch (#167569). The butterflies were coloured with Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends (#155518), Timid Tiger Stampin’ Blends (#165291), Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends (#161673). The butterflies were then attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The Flower Accents #165171) were added to the sentiment.

Happy Mother’s Day

Hello & a special Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mum’s.

This heart was made using a die from the Everyday Arches dies (#164629). I cut 2 pieces from the Bubble Bath card (#161727) and placed them together to form a heart.

For the Basic White card front (#166781) I used the Eyelet Blooms die (#167984) only with the Impressions Plate (#167767) for this lovely embossed effect. This was matted with Berry Burst card (#144249) and attached to the Basic White base card.

“Happy Mother’s Day” is from a retired stamp set and “With Love” is from the Extraordinary Flora stamp set (#165243). A die from the Stylish Shapes (#159183) was used for “Happy Mother’s Day” and a Fragrant Layers die (#167154) was used for “With Love”.

The butterflies from All Aflutter stamp set (#167564) were stamped with Berry Burst ink (#147143), then punched with the All Aflutter punch (#167569).

The sentiments and heart were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I used Mini Glue Dots (#103683) to attach the butterflies. I coloured the Antique Pearls (#164679) with Berry Burst Stampin Blends (#161681) before attaching them to the card.

Eyelet Blooms die

Hi everyone,

I love the large Eyelet Blooms die (#167984) which I have used for the card front on this card. I have also used 3 of the new 2026-2028 In-colors.

After cutting the Basic White card front (#166781) with the die, it was matted with the Crisp Cantaloupe from the 2026-2028 In-Color Pearlised Specialty Paper (#167766).

The background of the “Thank You” was also cut with this Specialty paper and the white card for the words is the Luxe White Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167947). This paper has a design on it which you may not be able to see in the photo.

The leaves cut with a die from the Fern & Flora dies (#168991) is cut from the Peaceful Pine card also from the Pearlised Specialty Paper.

The butterflies from All Aflutter stamp set 167564) were stamped with Hydrangea Hue ink (#167677) and punched with the co-ordinating All Aflutter punch (#167569).

I glued the Thank You to the coloured card and the card front to the matted piece with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). I also glued the ferns to the card. The butterflies and sentiment were then attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The embellishments are from the 2026-2028 In Color Dots (#167546).

Hello again friends,

A pretty card using new products from the new catalogue.

The Phrases & Frames Bundle (#167587) consists of the Phrases & Frames stamp set (#167581) and Phrases & Frames Impressions dies (#167586). For these impressions dies, you cut your card as usual with the die, then using an Impressions Plate (#167767), run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine again to get a deeper embossed impression. The frame was cut and embossed with this. I used the Hydrangea Hue from 2026-2028 In-Color Pearlised Specialty Paper (#167766) for the frame.

The 2 sentiments are from the Phrases & Frames stamp set and stamped with the Hydrangea Hue ink (#167677). These were cut with the Phrases & Frames dies, just using the inside part of the frames.

The card front is from the Luxe White Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167947) and this was matted with the Hydrangea Hue Pearlised Specialty Paper, then attached to the Basic White Base card (#166781). The frame & sentiments were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The butterflies from the All Aflutter stamp set (#167564) were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I added Silver Powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). These were punched with the co-ordinating All Aflutter punch (#167569). The butterflies were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The Embellishments are from the 2026-2028 In-Color Dots (#167546).
