Spiral flower originals die

Hi,

The Spiral Flower Originals die (#129379) from the Occasions Catalogue was used to make these flowers.





The Cardstock is Elegant Eggplant (#108614) and Very Vanilla (#106550) for the base of this tag. They were cut with the Labels Collection framelits (#125598) and the Very Vanilla embossed with the Honeycomb Folder (#129378). The flowers are Wisteria Wonder (#124389), Daffodil Delight (#121680) and Pumpkin Pie (#108601) card.
The flowers are very easy to make. Just cut the image with the Big Shot (#113439), then using a bone folder (#102300), start curling the card stock. This makes it easier to to form the flower. Start curling from the narrower end towards to middle. The last piece in the centre forms the base of the flower. I used hot melt glue to glue the flower. The tighter you curl the flower the smaller the flower will be, so you can vary the size of the flowers.
Thank You is made from the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set (#126257) and Bitty Banners Framelits (#129267), and stamped with Elegant Eggplant ink (#126969). The ribbon is Very Vanilla Seam Binding (#120999).


Have a great weekend,
Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

On Film Framelits dies

Hello and welcome,

Stampin' Up! continues to produce such a variety of fantastic products and the On Film Framelits dies (#132969) is no exception, available in the current Occasions catalogue.




I used the "Polaroid" die and camera for this card. These dies not only cut but emboss as well. To highlight the embossing I used Versamark (#102283) on the die before placing on the card, then put it through the Big shot (#113439).
Pumpkin Pie (#126945) ink pad was used for the lion and giraffe, and I used the Gumball Green Stampin' Write marker (#126856) for the grass.
The card stock is Very Vanilla (#106550) and Crumb Cake (#121685). The stamp sets are Zoo Review (#122199) and Sassy Salutations (#126707). I hand cut the giraffe and attached it to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430)


Thought for the day-




Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

Peaceful Petals sympathy card

Hello ladies,

Yes, I have had another Sympathy card to make and couldn't go past these beautiful flowers from the new Peaceful Petals stamp set (#133107).


Shimmery White (#121717) and Brushed Silver (#124917) are the card stock used for this card. I love these together for a very special card. Petite Pairs (#122497) stamp set is used for the sentiment with Silver Metallic Encore ink (#132142). I heat embossed the flowers using Versamark (#102283) and Silver embossing powder (#109131). The Large Scallop Edgelits were used as well as the coordinating Delicate Designs to emboss the edge of the white card. The silver 1/8" ribbon is also available again in this new seasonal catalogue. One of the flowers was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) to add dimension.

Open Sea

Hello,

The Open Sea stamp set (#123032) is of course a great one for a masculine card.



I thought a bit of distressing on this card was appropriate. The Stampin' Distress Tool (#127562) was used to do this. I used Baked Brown Sugar (#131301) for the base card. Other card colours are Early Espresso (#121686) and Very Vanilla (#106550). The inks used are Early Espresso (#126974) and Crumb Cake (#126975). The ship was heat embossed. If you don't have the correct colour embossing powder, just use Versamark (#102283) on the image, then colour the image with the colour you want (I used Early Espresso), then stamp the image on the card. Sprinkle with Clear embossing powder (#109130) and heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056). If you have the new ink pads, they are much "juicer" and you can just stamp the image with the ink (no versa mark needed) and add the clear embossing powder and heat as usual.
I hand cut the ship and anchor. The Circle Collection Framelits (#130911) and the Modern Label punch have been used. Happy Birthday Wishes is from the Petite Pairs stamp set (#122497).
Another tool which I find invaluable is the Stamp-a-ma-jig (#101049). I used this to place the compass image on the card. This helps you position your image exactly where you want it. I couldn't live without my Stamp-a-ma-jig!!!

Thanks for checking out my blog,
Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

The flowers are from Everything Eleanor stamp set (#124164), with Best Wishes from Petite Pairs (#122497). All these images were heat embossed with Versamark (#102283) and Black embossing powder (#109133). The circles are cut using the Circles Collection Framelits. Each of these circles were embossed with different folders - Chevron (#127749, Stripes (#123128), Honeycomb (#129378) and Argyle (#127750. The flowers were attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The background stamp is En Francais (#127790) and stamped with Crumb cake ink (#126975).
