Daffodil Daydream

Hello again everyone,

Today I have been sorting out what products are retiring tomorrow and getting ready for some more great products in the next Annual catalogue. So I thought I would use some more retiring products again today. I am using the Daffodil Daydream stamp set (#157786).





I stamped the 2 different daffodil images with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). These were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Daffodil Delight (#154883), Soft Sea Foam (#154902) and Soft Succulent (#155521). The co-ordinating Daffodil Dies (#157794) were used to cut these. I then cut the Soft Succulent from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428), backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), with a Forever Flourishing Die (#152714).

I dry embossed the Basic White card front with one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders (#161598), then I daubered the edges with Daffodil Delight ink (#154883). This was attached to the Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and attached to the Basic White base card.

The smaller daffodil image was attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) then the shimmery leaves were added. The other daffodils were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Thinking Of You” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink then cut with a Stylish Shapes Die (#159183) the Gold trim is from the Simply Elegant Trim (#155766). The sentiment was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensioanals (#144108).

I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the daffodils and added the cute little Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) to finish the card.

The Daffodil Daydream stamp set, Daffodil dies, Forever Flourishing Dies Fine Shimmer Paper Pack and the Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends are retiring.

Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper

Hi again my friends,

Another easy card with designer series paper. I have used the Country Floral Designer Series Paper (#160375) which is retiring. However the Country Bouquet stamp set (#160377) and Country Bouquet punch (#160382) will still be available in the new catalogue.




The hearts from the DSP were punched with the Country Bouquet Punch. “With Love” is from the Country Bouquet stamp set was stamped with Sweet Sorbet ink (#159216). This was also punched with the same punch.

I attached the strips of DSP to the DSP card front and this was taped to the Basic White base card (#159228). The hearts were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The little Heart Pearls (#159190) were attached to the card.

The Heart Pearls & the Country Floral Lane DSP are both retiring.

There are still many retiring products available (till 1st May) with savings up to 60% off, so you can see them here - lesleyjendra.stampinup.net

Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper

Hi my friends,

The Hello, Irresistible 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#161139) is the beautiful DSP used for the cardfront.




I cut the corner of the DSP and the Pretty Peacock card (#150886) with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878). I taped these together then wrapped the Gold Ribbon from the Gold & Silver Trim Combo Pack (#161633) around the card front.

The Gold Foil Sheets (#132622) backed with Adhesive Sheets (#152334) were used for the leaves which were cut with the Timeless Arrangements dies (#161525).

The sentiment is from the Timeless Arrangements stamp set (#161521) and stamped with Pretty Peacock ink (#150886). Another die from the Timeless Arrangements dies was used to cut the sentiment. This was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The butterflies are the Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136).

Always easy to make a card when you have beautiful Designer Series Paper.

Timeless Arrangements

Hello my friends,

Today I have finally had time to play with some new products in the new catalogue which will be available from 2nd May. I have used the Timeless Arrangements Bundle (#161526).





I stamped the circles from the Timeless Arrangements stamp set (#161521) onto the Very Vanilla card (106550) using VersaMark (#102283). I added Heat & Stick powder (#156110) and heated this with the Heat Tool (#129056). This becomes sticky which allows you to adhere the Gold Gilded Leafing (#154560). Press the leafing onto the card then  brush off the excess leafing. I then dry embossed this card with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (#156505). The corner was punched with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878) and attached to the Lost Lagoon card (#133686).

The Gold Ribbon from the Gold & Silver Trim Combo Pack (#161633) was wrapped around the card, then the card front was attached to the Very Vanilla Base card. 

“Happy Birthday” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763). This was stamped with VersaMark & I used Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) which was set with the Heat Tool. 

The Timeless Arrangements dies (#161525) were used to cut the leaves from the Lost Lagoon card and the Pretty Peacock card (#150886) which were both backed with Adhesive sheet (#152334). These were attached to the card front then the sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels (#158987) were added to the card.

There are no retiring products used on this card.

The sentiment from Nested Friends stamp set (#160322) was stamped with Balmy Blue ink (#147105) then cut with another die from the Radiating Stitches Dies. The sentiment & butterfly were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The embellishments are from the Festive Pearls (#159963).
