Epic Celebrations

Hello Ladies & Guys,

The Epic Celebration stamp set (#c147236, #w147232) is a saleabration product with a qualifying $90 order and the images in this set are ideal for the male teenager - sports shoes, guitar and headphones.




I stamped the dots onto the Whisper White base card (#106549) using Cherry Cobbler ink (#126966) and Night Of Navy ink (#126970) using the stampin’ off method. The dots, boots and “Here’s to an Epic Celebration” are all from the Epic Celebration stamp set.  Happy Birthday is from the Party Pandas stamp set (#c147221, #w147218), another saleabration product. The banner is Cherry Cobbler card, embossed with the Simple Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#145648) and the v shape was cut with the Banner Triple punch (#138292). The DSP is from the Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper (#144185). I cut the square with the shoes, with one of the dies from the Stitched Shapes Framelits (#145372). The sentiments were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The punch for Happy Birthday is the Classic Label (#141491).

Have a great day.

Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits

Hi again,

A great masculine card using the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits (#142749).




The base card is Early Espresso (#121686). I embossed the Very Vanilla card (#106550) with the Pinewood Planks 3D Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#143708). I attached a piece of the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack (#144177) to the Very Vanilla card. I then embossed a piece of the Champagne Foil Sheet (#144748) with the Layered Leaves 3D Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#143704). Both these 3D embossing folders only require 1 standard Cutting pad when making the “sandwich”, due to the thickness of the folder. The foil sheet was attached to Early Espresso card and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The dragonfly was cut with a die from the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits (#142749) from Basic Black card (#121688), added to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108), then added some sparkle with the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897). Celebrate and You are cut with the Celebrate You Thinlits Dies (#146840), which is one of the Sale-a-bration products. Basic Black card and Champagne Foil Sheet were used for these words. I adhered the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets (#144106) to the Basic Black card before cutting “celebrate”. “You” was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).  The ribbon is 3/8” Shimmer Ribbon  in Basic Black (#144129).

Bye for now.



Petal Pair Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

Hello,

The Petal Pair Textured Impressions Embossing Folders (#145656) has 2 narrow folders, one of which I have used on the top part of this card.





The card base is Whisper White (#106549) and the DSP is the Lemon Lime Twist from the Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Stack (#144131). The label from the Sweet Cake Framelits Dies (#145617) was cut from Lemon Lime Twist card (#144250). Just For You is from A Good Day stamp set (#c145873, #w145870) and stamped with Lemon Lime Twist ink (#144086). I punched this with the 1-3/8” Scallop Circle punch (#146139) and attached it to the tag with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I used the Whisper White 1/4” Organza Ribbon (#145590) on the card as well as for the bow. The bow was attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

That’s all for now.

Lots Of Lavender

Hello,

The Lots Of Lavender stamp set is one of the Sale-a-bration products. This is a 2 step set, but I chose to use just the one image here on this card. I thought there was enough colour with the Lemon Lime Twist.



The base card is Lemon Lime Twist (#144250). The next layer is Whisper White (#106549) and on top of this is the Fabulous Foil Designer Acetate (#141653). I used the gold side of this acetate, it has silver on the reverse. I then layered a small piece of the Lemon Lime Twist Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper (#144131) on top of the acetate. The next layers are Lemon Lime Twist and Whisper White. I stamped the flowers using VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129), which was heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056). Lots of layers but very simple!

Have a great day.

Sunshine & Rainbows Bundle

Hello,

When each of my grandchildren have started school, I have always been there on their first day. This year one granddaughter starts school but is interstate, so I thought I would send her a card. She loves rainbows so couldn’t resist using the Sunshine and Rainbows Bundle (#p145983). I hope she likes it.



The base card is Real Red (#106578). I stamped on the Soft Sky card front (#131292) using Soft Sky ink (#131181) for the raindrops from the Sunshine & Rainbows stamp set (#p145821). The sun was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#126944) on Daffodil Delight card (#121680). The cards for the rainbow are Real Red, Pumpkin Pie (#108601), Daffodil Delight, Garden Green (#108605), Marina Mist (#121682), Perfect Plum (#108615) and Wisteria Wonder (#124389). For the clouds I used Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper (#135315) and sponged the edges with Marina Mist ink (#126962). The clouds, rainbow and sun are all cut with the Rainbow Builder Framelits Dies (#145659). Wishing You A Lovely Day is from the Lovely Wishes stamp set (#p145924) and stamped with Real Red ink (#126949). I punched this with the 1-3/8” Circle punch (#119860). The sentiment, clouds and sun were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and the rainbow glued with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309).

Have a great day.
