Quiet Meadow stamp set

Welcome everyone,

I have used flowers from 2 different stamp sets on this card - Quiet Meadow (#155082) and the Honeybee Home (#157943).

I stamped the flower images with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). The flowers were coloured with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends (#154958). I used Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885) for the leaves. The yellow flowers were cut with the Honeybee Blooms Die (#157951) and the red flowers were fussy cut. The Granny Apple Green card  (#147014) was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting the leaf (behind the flowers)with a Meadow Die (#155852).

The Basic White card front was dry embossed with the Hive 3D Embossing Folder (#157955), then matted with Poppy Parade card (#121694). I cut the Flowering Fields 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#157670) with a Layering Circles Die (#151770) and attached to the cardfront. I wrapped the Gold Fine Art Ribbon (#154561) around the matted card front. The base card is Basic White.

“Best Wishes” from the Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) was stamped with Poppy Parade ink (#147050) and cut with a smaller Layering Circles die. The leaf from Dahlia Days stamp set (#157799) was stamped with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095) and attached under the sentiment with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The sentiment and the flowers were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The Bumblebee Trinket (#155568) was attached with a Mini Glue Dot.

Honeybee Home Bundle

Hello & welcome,

Today’s card is highlighting the Honeybee Home Bundle (#157952) which includes the Honeybee Home stamp set (#157943) and the Honeybee Blooms Dies (#157951).

I stamped the floral images and the bee with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) on Basic White card (#159228). The Stampin’ Blends used to colour these images are Pale Papaya (#155519), Soft Succulent (#155521) and Daffodil Delight (#154883). The co-ordinating dies were used to cut these flowers & the bee.

I used the Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the Evening Evergreen card (#155575) and Soft Succulent card (#155777) before cutting these with the dies. These were attached to the Basic White card front which had been dry embossed with the Hive 3D Embossing Folder (#157955). The edges of the card front were daubered with Evening Evergreen ink. 

The coloured flowers and the bee were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The sentiment from Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) was stamped with Evening Evergreen ink (#155576), then cut with the Messages die (#154422). The Elegant Faceted Gems (#152464) were added to the card and sentiment.

TIP: The Tuxedo Black Memento ink is ideal when using Stampin’ Blends as it won’t bleed. It is also a great general-purpose ink.

Soaring Swallows Bundle

Hello stamping friends,

I have used all new products on todays card. I am loving so many of the products from the new Mini catalogue.

I dry embossed the Cherry Cobbler card (#121681) with the Hive 3D Embossing Folder (#157955). This was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

I stamped the Swallow from the Soaring Swallows stamp set (#157804) with VersaMark (#102283) and added the Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) which was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The bird and the leaves were cut with dies from the Swallows Dies (#157809). I used Soft Sea Foam card (#154902) for the leaves which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334)

The Vellum is the 12”x12” Layering Designs (#157764). I attached this to the Cherry Cobbler card using the round Brads from the Round & Square Brads (#155570). The swallow was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The sentiment, also from the Soaring Swallows stamp set, was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083). This and the Gold Foil (#132622) were cut with the Beautiful Shapes Dies (#158046) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

TIP: Brads are a great way of attaching Vellum to the card. I also added a small amount of tape to the back of the vellum behind the bird.
