Hi Ladies,

A pretty birthday card today using some of my favourite stamp sets.

The cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and Calypso Coral (#124392), with Gold Glimmer Paper (#133719) for the leaves. The flourish from Everything Eleanor stamp set (#c124164, #w131987) was stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#126975). The flower from Flower Shop stamp set (#c130942, #w130939) was stamped with Calypso Coral ink (#126983) and punched with the Pansy Punch (#130698). The smaller flower is from the Petite Petals stamp set (#c133155, #w133152) using Daffodil Delight ink (#126944). The co-ordinating punch for this flower is Petite Petals (#133322). The flower for the centre was punched with the little flower from the Tree Builder punch (#138295). The leaves are punched with the Bird Builder punch (#117191). I also used some Gold Metallic Thread (#138401). Happy Birthday is from Sassy Salutations (#126707, #w132070) and stamped with Calypso Coral ink.

Have a great day.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Butterflies Thinlits

Hello,

This butterfly is cut using the Butterflies Thinlits (#137360).

The card for the butterfly is Melon Mambo (#119980). I stamped the image from Everything Eleanor (#c124164, #w131987) onto Whisper White card (#106548), using Melon Mambo ink (#126948) and using the stamping off method. This was then cut with the Deco Labels Collection Framelits (#130102) and taped to the Everyday Chic DSP (#138445). The butterfly was attached to this using Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). I added some of the White Perfect Accents (#138416) to the centre of the butterfly. I taped the Melon Mambo 3/8" Stitched Satin ribbon (#138431) to the DSP. Happy Birthday is from the Sassy Salutations stamp set (#c126707, #132070). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and Black Embossing powder (#109133), then heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056). 

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Everything Eleanor

Hi ladies,

Life has been a bit hectic here lately so here is a really quick and easy card I made in between other jobs today.

The card is Whisper White (#106549). I stamped the label from Everything Eleanor using Crumb Cake ink (#126975). Then using the masking technique, I stamped the flourish with Wild Wasabi ink (#126959). The flowers and the sentiment were stamped with Rich Razzleberry ink (#126950. The flowers are hand cut and attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). Happy Birthday is from the Butterfly Basics stamp set (#c138816, #w138813, #p137154).

As I said, a quick and easy card, so that's all today.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Everything Eleanor

Hello,

When a new catalogue arrives we are all so excited about all the new products and can't wait to design new cards etc. However there are still all those great products in the annual catalogue so today I am using Everything Eleanor (#c124164, #w131987) which is an old favourite.

All the images are from Everything Eleanor except the sentiment which is in the Petite Pairs stamp set (#c122497, #w128706). The inks are Pink Pirouette (#126956) and Rose Red (#126954). The Cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and Rose Red (#108613). I added some Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter (#133751) to the flowers and the flourish (hopefully it shows up on the photo) by applying glue from the 2-way Glue Pen, then sprinkling the glitter onto the card. Remove the excess glitter and allow to dry. After hand cutting the flowers they were attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The decorative edge on the white card was achieved by using the Small Scallop Stampin' Trimmer Rotary Cutting Blade (#129410).

Bye for now.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Watercolour Wings

Hello Ladies, 

I was so pleased with this finished card - very simple but beautiful. I think so anyway.

The card base is Whisper White (#106549). I trimmed 1.5cm from the right front of the card, then inside added a strip of Gold Foil Designer Vellum (#133363). I also added a small strip of Real Red card (#106578) to inside the front so just a small strip of red shows. I stamped the flourish from Everything Eleanor stamp set (#c124164, #w131987) with Real Red ink (#126949) as well as the sentiment from Tag Talk (#c134252, #w134249). The tag was punched with the Label Bracket (#132153). I also punched a piece of Gold Foil (#132622) with the label bracket punch. To add this to the tag, I cut the gold piece in half, then taped it to the tag. The butterfly from the Watercolour Wings stamp set (#p139424) has been stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Embossing powder (#109129) and heat set. The butterfly was cut with the Butterflies Thinlits (#137360). Before attaching the butterfly to the card I attached some of the Gold Metallic Thread (#138401), then put the butterfly on top using Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Everything Eleanor

Hello and welcome,

I have used the stamping off method when stamping these flowers from Everything Eleanor stamp set (#c124164, #w131987) to give a lighter image.

The cardstock I have used is Whisper White (#106549), Mint Macaron (#138344) and Tangelo Twist (#133684). The scalloped edges are cut with the Small Scallop Stampin' Trimmer Rotary Cutting Blade (#129410). This is used with the Stampin' Trimmer Rotary addition (#132986) which is attached to the Stampin' Trimmer (#129722). The inks used are Mint Macaron (#138326) and Tangelo Twist (#133646). Happy Birthday is from the Sassy Salutations stamp set (#c126707, #w132070). The lace is Mint Macaron 1" Dotted Lace Trim (#138424). The flowers were attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) and I added a bit of sparkle to the flowers with the Gold Glitz Dazzling Details (#133755).

Today's tip: When using the Rotary blade you must turn your cutting mat to the smooth side (you use the normal trimmer with the grove in the mat). The mat has 2 smooth sides and 2 sides with the groove.

Have a great day.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Watercolour Wash

Hello,

After making the card for today on the Whisper White base card (#106549), I was undecided if I wanted to add some more red to the card, so decided to make one with the Real Red base card (#106578).

The background has been stamped with the Watercolour Wash stamp (#c139538, #w138708) using Smokey Slate ink (#131179) with the stamping off method. The flourish from Everything Eleanor stamp set (#c124164, #w131987) was stamped with Garden Green ink (#126973). I added a piece of Everyday Chic Designer Washi Tape (#138385) to the bottom of the cards. Happy Birthday is from Tag Talk (#c134252, #w134249), stamped with Real Red ink (#126949) and punched with the Label Bracket (#132153). The butterfly is cut with the Butterflies Thinlits (#137360) from Red Glimmer Paper (#121790). The butterfly and tag are both attached to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

I'm still unsure which I like best. Which one is your favourite.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.
