Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

Hello,

The Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#147906) is already one of my favourite embossing folders. I have used it on the cardfront for this card.

After embossing the Very Vanilla card (#106550), I lightly daubered using Soft Suede ink (#147115) to highlight the embossed areas. This was attached to the Mango Melody base card (#147013). I stamped Happy Birthday from the Cake Soirée stamp set (#c145745, #w145521) with Soft Suede ink and cut this with a die from the Sweet Cake Framelits (#145617). The leaves are cut from Old Olive card (#106576), Mango Melody card (#147013) and Gold Foil Sheet (#132622). The framelits to cut these are from the Sweet Cake Framelits, Nature’s Roots Framelits (#146341) and Seasonal Layers Thinlits (#143751). I glued the leaves to the card with the Fine Tip Glue Pen (#138309) and the sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The bow was made with the Very Vanilla & Copper ribbon from the Tea Room Ribbon Combo Pack (#146893). I used a Mini Glue Dot (#103683) to attach the bow.

Have a great day.

Wishing You Well

Hello friends,

The new Holiday Catalogue is now available, so if you haven’t seen it yet and live in Australia and would like one sent to you please contact me. There are so many gorgeous products I wasn’t sure were to start. This Wishing You Well stamp set (#c147864, #w147867) is beautiful, and is a “Distinktive” stamp set. All the stamped images on this card are from this set. These stamps create different opacities in a single stamped image for realistic depth and intensity. I wasn’t sure how they would work with Embossing Powders but I was happy with the end result.

The leaves were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I added the Call Me Clover Stampin’ Emboss Powder from the 2018-2020 In Colours (#146955). There are the 5 in colours included in this pack. This was then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). Then I added the flowers using VersaMark and the Pineapple Punch Stampin Emboss Powder. Again I wasn’t sure how embossing with the 2 different colours would work, but it did. I cut this with a die from the Layering Ovals Framelits (#141706) and sponged the edges with Pineapple Punch ink (#147141). The bow was stamped with Pineapple Punch ink and I fussy cut this and attached it to the card with Mini Stampin Dimensionals (#144108). I added some glimmer to the bow with the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897). The Whisper White base card (#106549) was embossed with the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#147923), then I spritzed it with the Frost White Shimmer Paint (#147046). This gives a subtle shimmer and shine to the paper. I added some rubbing alcohol to a Stampin’ Spritzer (#126185) then added a few drops of the Shimmer Paint. Shake to mix, then spray onto the card. So easy for a beautiful finish. I added a piece of Pineapple Punch DSP from the 2018-2020 In-Colour 6” x 6” Designer Series Paper, then attached the oval with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Wishing You Well was stamped with Call Me Clover ink (#147139) then punched with the Classic Label punch (#141491) and attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Have a creative day.

Falling Flowers

Hello,

The Stamparatus is such a great tool to help align stamped images. This technique I have used on today’s card is so simple to get this beautiful wreath of flowers using the Stamparatus (#148187).

Firstly you need a template. I cut a piece of Grid Paper 18cm x 18cm. I then cut a piece of scrap card 10 x 10cm. I placed this on the centre of the grid paper and drew around the card. I then turned it to the diamond shape and drew around the card again as shown on this photo below.

I then cut a piece of Designer Series Paper from the Petal Promenade (#146913) 10cm x 10cm, and placed this on the grid paper on the Stamparatus. I placed the flower from the Falling Flowers stamp set (#c139556, #w139553) where I wanted to stamp the first image. I inked the flower with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099) and stamped this. I then moved the DSP to the next point of the template and stamped again without re-inking. I continued this till the circle was completed.

This was then attached to the Gorgeous Grape card (#147011), which was attached to the Whisper White card (#106549). I embossed this base card with the Quilt Top Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#144687). Thank You is from the Eastern Beauty stamp set (#143675) and the circles are cut with the Stitched Shapes Framelits (#145372) and the Layering Circle Framelits (#141705). This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#c104430). The finished card size is 13cm x 13cm. 

I am looking forward to playing with a variety of stamps using this technique as it is so easy, with great results.

Bye for now.

Springtime Impressions Thinlits Dies

Hi everyone,

Spring has arrived so here is a bright colourful floral card. The Springtime Impressions Thinlits Dies (#146326) has been used to cut this floral image.

I glued this to the 2018-2020 In Colour 6” x 6” Designer Series Paper (#146963). This colour is Pineapple Punch. Just for You is from A Good Day stamp set (#c145873, #w145870) and stamped with Poppy Parade ink, then punched with the 1-3/8” Scallop Circle Punch (#146139). The butterfly which is in the Painted Glass stamp set (#c147461, #w147458) was stamped with  Jet Black StazOn ink (#101406), cut with the die from the Stained Glass thinlits (#146347), then attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Graceful Glass Designer Vellum

Hello and welcome,

The Graceful Glass 6” x 6” Designer Vellum (#146344) is great for colouring with Stampin’ Blends as well as other colouring tools such as Stampin’ Write markers or Watercolour pencils. This Vellum has a variety of designs which could also be used without colouring or partial colouring which I have done on this card. The colour of the card behind the vellum can give a different look, so its good to try a variety of colours to see which one looks the best.

I have coloured the birds and some of the geometrical design using a variety of the Stampin’ Blends. After colouring, I attach this to a piece of So Saffron card (#108611), then a piece of Basic Black (#121688). I find the best results when adhering Vellum to card is using the Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755), spreading it evenly all over the back of the vellum with a piece of sponge. This was then attached to the So Saffron base card. The sentiment is from the Painted Glass stamp set (#c147461, #w147458). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#146956) on Very Vanilla card (#106550), then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I punched this with the Tailored Tag Punch (#145667) then sponged the edges with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Have a great week.

Hello,

Here’s a sneak peek of some of the products in the new holiday catalogue which are available from 5th September.

I used Night Of Navy card (#146110) which I attached the Silver Foil Sheet (#132178) to. This was embossed with the beautiful new Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#147906). I stamped the flowers and cream can with StazOn Jet Black ink (#101406). I used Smokey Slate card for the can and Very Vanilla card for the background for the flowers. I coloured the flowers with Stampin’ Blends - Light Old Olive (#144574), Light Shaded Spruce (#147936), Dark Real Red (#147934) and Bronze (#144607). I coloured the bands around the can with Light Smokey Slate Stampin’ Blends (#145054). I cut a piece from the Chicken Wire Elements (#147807) and attached this to the card. I backed the Very Vanilla card with another piece of Night Of Navy card. The can was fussy cut and attached to the card with Stampin Dimensionals (#104430). The sentiment is from the retired stamp set (Guy Greetings), stamped with StazOn ink and cut with a die from the Petals & More Thinlits (#145655).

Delightfully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper

HI Ladies & Guys,

I used the oval from the gorgeous Delightfully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#146907) to frame the floral image from the Very Vintage stamp set (#c146801, #w146798).

I stamped this image on Very Vanilla card (#106550) with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Copper Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#141636) which is heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I then attached the Laser-Cut Paper to the stamped card, and this was then attached to the piece of Copper Foil Sheet (#142020) before attaching to the Very Vanilla base card. Happy Birthday is also from the Very Vintage stamp set and embossed with the Copper Emboss Powder. This was cut with a die from the Petals & More Thinlits (#145655). I sponged the edges with Soft Suede ink (#147115) and used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach this to the card. A bow was made with the 1/4” Copper Trim (#144179) and a Mini Glue Dot (#103683) attached this to the card.

This Delightfully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper has a range of designs, with Very Vanilla on one side and white on the other. There are strips, rectangles and full page designs, so suitable for scrapbooking as well as cards.

Bye for now.
