Prairie Grass stamp set

Hello friends,

I am loving the grass images from the Prairie Grass stamp set (#166168). Here’s another easy but elegant card using this stamp set.

I cut the 4 different designs from the Country Woods Designer Series Paper (#163393). These measure 3cms x 9cms. I placed them onto the grid paper with the spaces between them. Then I stamped the image with VersaMark (#102283) and added the Black powder from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165679). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056).

The DSP was then taped to the Basic Black card (#121688), then attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

“Thinking Of You” from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set (#165198) was also heat embossed with Black powder. I used the More Messages die (#165472) to cut the sentiment. The Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems (#161288) were added to the card. These are on the Last Chance list, so available while stocks last.

Spotlight On Nature dies

Hi friends,

The Spotlight On Nature dies (#163580) includes 12 circle dies with 3 designs around the outsides.

I stamped the butterfly from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set (#163490) with VersaMark (#102283) onto Gorgeous Grape card (#147011). I added the Gold from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056).

“Happy Birthday” from the Unbounded Love stamp set (#163378) was also stamped with VersaMark onto Highland Heather card (#147010). The White powder from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165679) was added and heat set.

These 2 cards and the 2 designs from the Perennial Lavender Designer Seres Paper (#162593) were cut with the Spotlight On Nature dies.

The leaves were cut with a Painted Lavender die (#162596) using Shaded Spruce card (#147006) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334).

The Basic White card front (#159228) was dry embossed with the Dashing Designs Embossing Folder (#163483), then matted with Gorgeous Grape card. This was attached to the Basic White base card.

I taped the DSP and Happy Birthday circles to the card front. The leaves were attached and I also attached the Gold Trim. The larger circle with the butterfly was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added the Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) to finish the card.

Magnolia Mood

Hello stamping friends,

This flower is from the Magnolia Mood Bundle (#163507) which includes the Magnolia Mood stamp set (#163502) and Magnolia Mood dies (#163506).

I stamped the magnolia with Smoky Slate ink (#147113) onto Basic White card (#159228). I coloured this with Stampin’ Blends - Peach Pie (#163827), Soft Sea Foam (#147102), Old Olive (#154892), Daffodil Delight (#154883) and 1000 (#159465). I cut this floral image and the detailed image with the Magnolia Mood dies.

I wanted this detailed die cut to be glossy so I stamped it all over with VersaMark (#102283) and added Clear from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165679) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056).

The Oxidised Copper 12”x12” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#162190) was matted with Peach Pie card (#163800). The Peach Pie Bordered Ribbon (#163783) was wrapped around the card front, then attached to the Basic White base card. I attached the detailed white die cut with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and the stamped floral image with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

I stamped the “timber grain” from the Textured Timber stamp set (#163656) with Crumb Cake ink (#147116). Then I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283) with VersaMark & Copper Embossing Powder from the Metallics (#165678), and set it with the Heat Tool. The die to cut this is from the Christmas Labels (#164100). The sentiment was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. The Drusy Adhesive-Backed Embellishments (#164223) were added to the card.

Phrases For All

Hello friends,

I have paired the Phrases For All stamp set (#161403) with the Country Bouquet stamp set (#160377) for this easy card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Phrases For All stamp set onto a piece of the Bright & Beautiful 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#161449). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I used White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) which was set with the Heat Tool (#129056).

I punched the corner of this DSP and the Blueberry Bushel card (#146991) with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878). I taped the DSP to the Blueberry Bushel card then wrapped the Azure Afternoon from the Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack (#161635) around the card front. This Ribbon Combo pack also has Bubble Bath & Lemon Lolly Ribbon. The card front was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The hearts from the Country Bouquet stamp set were stamped with VersaMark and this time used the Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555). After setting this, the hearts were punched with the Country Bouquet Punch (#160382). The hearts were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) & Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Very easy!!
