Seasonal Bells Christmas card

Welcome,

I have embossed these bells with the Real Red Glitter Stampin' Emboss Powder (#142635). This gives a lovely glittery look but not sure if it shows on this photo. You need to useVersaMark (#102283) with the embossing powder, and set with the Heat Tool (#129056).

 

The bells are from the Seasonal Bells stamp set (#c142107, #w142104) as is the sentiment. The sentiment is stamped with Real Red ink (#126949).  The cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and Real Red (#106578). The stars were punched with the Confetti Stars Border punch (#135861) and the bells were punched with the Bell punch (#141846). One bell was glued to the card while the other was attached using Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). I added the bow, which I made from 1/8" Gold Ribbon (#134583), using a Mini Glue Dot (#103683).

Have a great weekend.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Merriest Wishes Bundle

Hello everyone,

There are so many bundles available in the holiday catalogue and the Merriest Wishes bundle (#c143520, #w143519) is very versatile with a range of tags that you can create with them. I have used them here on this card.

 

The stamp set (#c142066, #w142063) consists of 11 images and the co-ordinating Merry Tags Framelits Dies (#141835) has 7 dies. The precision Base Plate (#139684) is recommended to cut these detailed images. The tags were stamped with Cucumber Crush ink (#138324) and Real Red ink (#126949) on Whisper White card (#106549). I cut the bottom tag from Whisper White card, Cucumber Crush card (#138342) and Soft Suede card (#119982). I cut the trees from the green card and the reindeer from the brown card and glued them to the white card. I used the Copper Metallic Thread (#141696) to hang the tags. The base card is Night Of Navy (#106577) and the card front is Soft Sky (#131292). This was embossed with the Softly Falling Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#139672). The tags were glued to the card using the Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755).

Have a great day.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Botanical Builder Framelits

Hello again,

I often have ladies tell me they don't like stamping. Not sure why! However with all the beautiful framelits that Stampin' Up! have, you don't always need to do a lot of stamping to make a card.

 

All these pieces were cut using the Botanical Builder Framelits (#140625). I did stamp the green leaf with an image from the Botanical Blooms stamp set (#p140757) before cutting with the framelit. I used Pear Pizzaz ink (#131180) on Pear Pizzaz card (131290). I used Real Red card (#106578), Pacific Point (#116202) and Basic Black (#121688) for the flowers. The other cardstock is So Saffron (#108611) and Whisper White (#106549). Happy Birthday from Guy Greetings stamp set (#c138828, #w138825, #p137178) was stamped with Crushed curry ink (#131173). The red flower was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) and the others were glued with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755).

That's all for today.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Starlight Thinlits Dies

Hello ladies,

As soon as I saw these framelits -Starlight Thinlits Dies (#141840) I knew I just had to have them, as well as the Star Of Light stamp set (#p142110). There are 7 dies in the set which all mix and match, so lots of possibilities with this bundle (#143508).

 

The cardstock is Night Of Navy (#106577) and Whisper White (#106549) as well as Silver Glimmer Paper (#135314). I stamped the background with  Soft Sky ink (#131181) using the "star trail swirl" image from the Star Of Light stamp set. Happy Christmas, including the banner is from the Seasonal Bells stamp set (#142104). I used Night Of Navy ink (#126970). The co-ordinating Bunch Of Banners Framelits (#141488) were used to cut this. The sentiment was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The blue star was also attached with Dimensionals. The silver star was glued using Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). 

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Paisleys and Posies

Hello,

A great advantage with the photopolymer stamps is that you can easily place the stamps on an acrylic block and stamp them all at once. This is particularly helpful when using embossing powder as I have on this card.

 

The stamps arranged on the acrylic block -

 

Another advantage with photopolymer stamps is that they are flexible, so you can be more creative with them. On this card I have curved the sentiment above the Paisley stamps, instead of it being straight.

The stamp set I have used is Paisleys & Posies (#p142196). The Watermelon Wonder image was cut with the  co-ordinating set of Framelits - the Paisley Framelits (#141849), which is also available as a bundle (#p143515), which means you save 10%.  All the stamped images were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with Copper Stampin' Emboss Powder (#141636) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and Watermelon Wonder (#138341). The greeting was cut with the framelit from the Project Life Cards & Labels Framelits (#135707) then attached to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

Have a great day.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Best Birds

Hi everyone,

A small piece of DSP can add an extra touch to a simple card. The DSP used here is the Moroccan Designer Series Paper (#141645)

 

I used Very Vanilla card (#106550) with Early Espresso (#121686) for the branches. The bird was stamped with Delightful Dijon ink (#138327), and the background behind the bird was stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#126975). I used Early Espresso ink (#126974) for the Happy birthday. All these stamps are from the Best Birds stamp set (#p141525). The co-ordinating Framelits used to cut the bird is the Birds & Blooms Thinlits Dies (#141477). These are also available in a bundle (#142315). The "branches" were cut using the Flourish Thinlits (#141478). I used Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the bird to the card and I glued the branches using Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755).

That's all for another day.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Seasonal Bells wedding card

Hello,

We have a wedding to go to next weekend and this is the card I made for the lovely couple.

 

I used a full sheet of Shimmery White card (#121717) and folded it in half so I created a large card. I used the Fabulous Foil Designer Acetate (#141653) for the background. The labels were cut with the Lots Of Labels Framelits (#138281) from Gold Foil Sheets (#132622) and Shimmery White card. The white card was then embossed with the Elegant Dots folder (#138287). The bells and sentiment from the Seasonal Bells stamp set (#c142107, #w142104) are stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with the Gold Embossing Powder (#109129). The bells are punched with the co-ordinating Bell Punch (#141846). This stamp set and punch are also available as a bundle (#c143533, #w143532) and you can find them in the Holiday catalogue. The sentiment was cut with the Layering Oval Framelits (#141706). The ribbon is Gold 5/8" Satin Ribbon (#134547). I added a gold Metallic Enamel Shape (#141678) to the top of the bells.

That's all for today.

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.
