Swallowtail and Papillon Potpourri

Hello Stampers

Today's card features both the Swallowtail and Papillon Potpourri Stamp sets. As you probably know, I love butterflies so any chance to use these beautiful stamp sets I do. Stampin' Up! have 15% off the Papillon Potpourri stamp set and coordinating Bitty Butterfly punch when purchased as a bundle, till the end of September, so to take advantage of this contact me now.




Firstly cut out a piece of Whisper White (#106549) with the Labels Collection Framelits (#125598), then temporarily place it onto the base card where you want it . Stamp the Swallowtail (#129216) onto the 2 pieces at the same time. The top piece is then attached to the Bermuda Bay card (#131286) which has been cut with the next size Framelit. I embossed the base card with the Fancy Fan folder (#127751) and the Bermuda Bay with Perfect Polka Dots (#117335). The small butterflies are from the Papillon Potpourri stamp set (#123759) using Bermuda Bay ink (#131171) and punched with the Bitty Butterfly (#129406). "For You" is from Chalk Talk stamp set (#130634) and I used one of the Circles Collection Framelits (#130911) to cut this. Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the sentiment and small butterflies to the card. The smallest of the Pearl Basic Jewels (#119247) were added to the body of the butterflies.

Till next time,

MDS

Hello everyone,

This is my latest scrapbook page using a designer page and moving elements around to suit as well adding on other elements.


I am hoping to do some photo books of my grandchildren  and some of our holidays, but just need to find some more time to do them. It is however, very easy to do with the designer pages as a lot of the elements are already there. They can be moved to suit your particular page and add your own elements as well. You can make them as simple or as sophisticated as you like. One great thing with digital scrapbooking is that if you put something on the page and then you don't like it, it's easy to remove it and try something else. Also the size of the stamps and punches can be changed, as well as changing colours of DSP, so the possibilities are endless.
If you would like any more info about MDS please contact me.

Till next time,
Happy Stamping,
Lesley.

Morning Meadow

Hello friends

Today's card is one we made at a friends card class, using the Morning Meadow stamp set (#129678).




Card stock used is Whisper White (#106549) and Calypso Coral (#124392). DSP is from the Epic Day This and That (#130814). Coastal Cabana Ruffle Stretch Trim (#130024) was used. The Happy Birthday is from the Morning Meadow set which is available as a hostess product. This was then cut using one of the Apothercary Accents Framelits (#127003). The Calypso Coral card was cut by hand, after tracing around the Framelit. Crumb Cake ink (#126975) and Calypso coral (# 126983) were used for the sentiment.
The flowers are stamped also from the same stamp set, and punched with the coordinating Pansy punch (#130698). The flowers were stamped with Coral Caypso ink (#126983), Blushing Bride (#131172) and Pink Pirouette (#126956). I attached these using Stampin' Dimensionals, then added Pearl Basic Jewels to the flower centre. A Tea Lace Paper Doilie was used behind the flowers.

You can check out more of Lyn's cards at Lyn's Creations in Paper.

Thought for the day-



The new Holiday Catalogue is available from September 1st, with lots of products for the Christmas season, so if you would like one, or if there are any products you would like to order from this or the annual catalogue please contact me.

Owl builder punch

Hello again,

I've been away and haven't had a chance to do any cards until today. I love the owl punch and had a spare owl lying around so thought I'd make a quick card with it.



The card colours are Real Red (#106578) Pacific Point (#116202) and Very Vanilla (#106550). I embossed using the Woodgrain folder (#127821), Chevron folder (#127749) and Perfect Polka Dots folder (#117335). The punches used are the Owl Builder (#118074), Bird Builder for the leaves (#117191), Decorative Label (#120907) and Artisan Label (#130920). The heart is from the Hearts a Flutter Famelits (#130159). I used the Happy Birthday from the Postage Collection Stamp set (#129240) using Pacific Point ink (#126951). I layered the elements for the sentiment using Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). They were also used to attach the owl. 2 Pearl Basic Jewels (#119247) were also added.
After embossing with the Woograin I brayered using Crumb Cake ink (#126975).

Thought for the day-





Have a great day.

Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

MDS Happy Birthday card

Hello

Today I have had a little play with MDS to make a card.


 
 
Firstly I chose a background from Sweet Designs. The cupcakes are from the stamps - Cake and Ice Cream. I coloured the cupcakes using the Colour tool and chose a variety colours. The brush size can be changed to a smaller brush to make it easier to colour smalleer areas. The Happy Birthday sentiment is a stamp from the Delightful Dozen. I also changed the colours on this with the colour tool. Changing the colours digitally is a bit like using markers to colour your stamps to get different colours on the one stamp.  I found the Simple Stitches and Taffeta ribbon in the embellishments and I recoloured the ribbon. This was a fun and easy card to make. 
 
After attending the Make A Statement Tour in Brisbane and learning about MDS, I am looking forward to using this software for a variety of projects.
 
Till next time,
Happy Stamping,
Lesley.

Dress Up Framelits

Hi crafty ladies

This is one of the cards we made at my card class today using the Dress Up Famelits.




I cut the edge of the Real Red base card (#116202) with the Large Scallop Edgelits (#127019), then embossed with the coordinating Delicate Designs folder (#127023). I then attached a piece of Whisper White card (#106549) to the underneath and lined it up with the back edge of the card.
The piece of vellum (#106584) was embossed using the Stripes folder (#123128) and attached to the card with the cute little Mini Brads (#122941). The dress was cut from Red Glimmer Paper (#121790) with the Dress Up Framelits (#130101).The coathanger from The Hung Up Cute Clips (#129389) is just perfect for this dress. I used a Candy Dots Brad Base (#132293) and Candy Dot from the Neutrals collection (#130934) to hang the hanger on. The dress was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#119246) were added to the dress for that extra bling.
Congratulations is stamped with Real Red ink (#126949) using the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set and cut with the Bitty Banners Framelits.

Thought for the day-



That's all for today, and thanks for your support.
Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

My Digital Studio

Hello everyone

Today I attended the Make A Statement Digital Tour, Brisbane to learn about My Digital Studio. It was a great day and I learnt so much. This is a quick page I did when I arrived home.

 
 
I used a 12x12 template which already had a lot of embellishments on it, then added the photos and Text. I also added the mats around the photos. When I indicated I wanted all the photos on this page matted I didn't realize it would also mat the designer papers on the page as well. I liked how this was done. I am looking forward to playing with this great digital program and hope to have a lot more to show you in the future. There are so many possibilities for using MDS. It will compliment what I do now with the Stampin' Up! products.
 
If you would like any more info on My Digital Studio please contact me.
 
Till next time
Happy Stamping
Lesley.
