Bordered In Beauty

Hi & welcome,

I have used dies from both the Bordered In Beauty dies (#167556) and the Extraordinary Life dies (#167718). You might look at these dies and think they are more suited to memory keeping but they can definitely be used for cards as well.

I used 2 of the dies from Bordered In Beauty dies to cut the top & bottom of the Basic White card front (#166781). I then dry embossed this with the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder (#167744).

The DSP is from the Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series Paper (#167553). I cut the “page” using an Extraordinary Life die and this was attched to the white card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The leaves are from the Floral Flight Accents (#167558) and attached to the card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). The butterfly is from the Gilded Wings Accents (#169953) and attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

“Best Wishes” is from the July Product Of The Month - Begonia Belle stamp sets (#168592) and stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink (#147052) and cut with a Bordered In Beauty Die. This was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The embellishments are the Pearlised Faceted Circles (#166978).

Moonlit Flora Suite Collection

Hi stamping friends,

I have used the Moonlit Flora Suite Collection (#167749) for today’s card.

I cut 3 pieces of the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper (#167737) using a die from the Paradise Garden dies (#167120). These were attached to a piece of Vellum Specialty Paper (#167099), then cut with a square Stylish Shapes Die (#159183).

I dry embossed the Basic White card front (#167737) with the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder (#167744) and this was matted with Peaceful Pine card (#167692) and attached to the Basic White base card.

The square die cut piece was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The ferns are cut with the Fern & Flora dies (#168991) from Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) and Peaceful Pine card. The dragonflies are cut from Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper (#165901) using the Scalloped Wishes dies (#167452). I attached the body to the wings of the dragonfly using Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

“Happiest Birthday Wishes” is from the Phrases & Frames stamp set (#167581) and I stamped this with Peaceful Pine ink (#167679). A die from the Fern & flora dies was used to cut the sentiment.

The card for the ferns were backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) which makes it easy to attach fine die cuts to the card. The top left dragonfly was attached with Mini Glue Dots and I used a Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) to attach the other dragonfly. The sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Fern & Flora Bundle

Hi again,

Another card today using the Fern & Flora Bundle (#167745). I am finding this set will be great for both male & female cards.

The large fern leaf from the Fern & Flora stamp set (#167739) was stamped with Mossy Meadow ink (#147111) onto Old Olive card (#106576). I stamped the small floral image with Crushed Curry ink (#147087) onto Basic White card (#166781). The Fern & Flora Dies (#168991) were used to cut the 2 stamped images and the “curly” leaf from Pecan Pie card (#161726) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334).

“Happiest Birthday Wishes” from the Notes Of Spring stamp set (#167979) was stamped with Mossy Meadow ink & cut with a Fern & Flora die.

The circle was cut from a piece of Country Woods Designer Series Paper (#163393) using a Spotlight On Nature die (#163580).

The Basic White card front was dry embossed with the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder (#168844) then matted with Old Olive card. I wrapped the retired Gold Open Weave ribbon around the matted card and attached it to the Basic White base card.

The circle was taped to the card, the adhesive backed Pecan Pie leaves were attached and the stamped leaves and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Fern & Flora Bundle

Hello again my friends,

Tomorrow (5th May) the products from the new catalogue will be available. There are so many exciting new products including the Fern & Flora Bundle (#167745) which I have used on this card.

I stamped the large fern leaf with Old Olive ink (#147090) and the smaller leaves & floral images with Mossy Meadow ink (#147111). I coloured the images with the following Stampin’ Blends - Soft Sea Foam (#154902), Old Olive (#154892), Real Red (#154899) and Daffodil Delight (#154883).

The Basic White card front (#166781) was dry embossed with the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder (#167744), then matted with Real Red card (#106578). The base card is also Basic White.

The sentiment & stamped frame are also from the Fern & Flora stamp set (#167739) and stamped using Old Olive ink & Real Red ink (#147084). The Fern & Flora dies (#168991) were used to cut all the images and sentiment. For the “curly” ferns I used Mossy Meadow card (#133683) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). I used Mini Glue Dots (#144108), Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach everything to the card.
