Floral Boutique DSP

Hello,

The Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper (#141663) has been used for the background on today's card. This set of DSP has a lovely range of patterns in Night Of Navy and Whisper White.

 

I used Whisper White card (#106549) for the base card, the square and the banner for the sentiment. The square is cut with the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies (#145372). This was attached to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The dragonfly was cut with the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits Dies (#142749) from the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper (#135315) and also attached with Stampin' Dimensionals. Happy Birthday is from the Guy Greetings stamp set (#c138828, #w138825, #p137178) and stamped with Night Of Navy ink (#126970) and cut with the Banner Framelits (#132173).

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!


Lesley.

This stamp is from the Butterfly Basics stamp set (#c138816, #w138813, #p137154).

Watercolour Wash with Big On Birthdays

Hello again,

The Watercolor Wash stamp (#c139538, #w138708) is a background stamp which I have used for the background on this card.

 

The base card is Pumpkin Pie (#108601). I used Crumb Cake ink (#126975) to stamp the background on Very Vanilla card (#106550). The sentiment from Big On Birthdays stamp set (#p142877) was stamped with Pumpkin Pie ink (#126945). The flowers were cut from Pumpkin Pie card (#108601) and Very Vanilla card, using the Flourish Thinlits  (#141478). The ribbon is from the 3/8" Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack (#143601) from Sale-a-bration. I added a Pearl Basic Jewel (#119247) to the centre of the flower. The Fine-tip Glue Pen (#138309) was used to attach the flowers to the card. Don't forget to replace the cap immediately on this glue pen so the tip doesn't get blocked.

Have a great weekend.


Till next time,

Happy Stamping!


Lesley.

Flourishing Phrases with Falling Petals

Hi,

For the embossing on this card I have used the Falling Petals Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#142761).

 

The cardstock is Very Vanilla (#106550) and Peekaboo Peach (#141422). After embossing the card front I gently sponged the raised petals with Peekaboo Peach ink (#141398). The flower is from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set (#c141538, #w141531) and also stamped with Peekaboo Peach ink. The scalloped circles were cut using the Layering Circles Framelits (#141705). I added a Falling In Love Embellishment (#142791) to the flower. Happy Birthday is from the Balloon Celebration stamp set (#p140675). This was cut with a framelit from the Project Life Cards & Labels (#135707). You might be thinking that this looks shorter than the framelit in this set. Well yes it is. To make it shorter, firstly place the framelit closer to the "H", so there will be more space at the end. Then after cutting, place the framelit the same distance from the "y" and recut, as shown below.

 

The ribbon is the 3/8" Ruched Ribbon in Peekaboo Peach (#141427). When I attach ribbon to a card I put tape on the card rather than the ribbon. I find this easier for me. Then when possible, tuck it under the card front so ther are no raw edges showing on the card. The sentiment was then attached over the ribbon with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The circles were also attached with Dimensionals.

Hopefully today will see the end of this heatwave. Keep cool everyone.

Over the next few weeks I won't be able to do a daily blog, but will hopefully do at least 2 a week.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!


Lesley.

Stylish Stems Framelits Dies

Hello ladies and gents,

Here is a beautiful card I will be using for a Sympathy card, but would suit any special occasion.

 

I have used Shimmery White for the base card, the  card front and banner for the sentiment. The small flowers and the piece under the large flower is from the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper (#135315). The flowers are cut using the Stylish Stems Framelits Dies (#142750). The silver and white ribbon is from the Sale-a-bration 3/8" Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack (#143601). With Sympathy is from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set (#c141534, #w1415310), stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with the Silver Stampin' Emboss Powder (#109131) then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was cut with a framelit from the Stylish Stems Framelits Dies. I lightly sponged the edges with Pink Pirouette ink (#126956). I used Stampin' Dimensionals to attach the sentiment to the card as well as the card front to the base card.

Have a great day and try to keep cool.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!


Lesley.

Hi,

The Falling In Love DSP (#142788) has a beautiful range of designs including this one with butterflies,

 

The base card is Sweet Sugarplum (#141423), and the next layer is Soft Sky (#131292). I have used the Lace Doilies (#142793) under the circles which were cut with the Layering Circles Framelits (#141705) and Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies (#145372). I stamped the sentiment from the Avant Garden stamp set (#p143272) using Sweet Sugarplum ink (#141395) on Very Vanilla card (#106550). The 3/8" Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack (#143601) is from the Sale-a-bration products as is the Avant Garden stamp set.  I used the vanilla and gold ribbon. The other ribbon in this pack is silver and white. Then I finished off the card with the Falling In Love Embellishment (#142791) which I attached to the ribbon using a Mini Glue Dot (#103683).

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!


Lesley.
