Eyelet Blooms Die

Hello again friends,

Here is a variation of a card I posted on 16th May (using the Moonlit Flora Suite). Today I have used a variety of products including the beautiful Eyelet Blooms die (#167984) for the card front.

The Basic White card front (#166781) was then matted with Bubble Bath card (#161727) and attached to the Basic White base card.

I cut 3 pieces of the Splash Of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167200) with a die from the Paradise Garden dies (#167120). These were attached to a piece of Window Sheet (#142314), then I cutnthe circle with a Stylish Shapes die (#159183). Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach this to the card.

The butterflies from All Aflutter stamp set (#167564) were heat embossed with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I then coloured them with Stampin’ Blends - Bubble Bath (#161675), Fresh Freesia (#155518) and Highland Heather (#154887). The co-ordinating All A Flutter punch (#167569) was used to punch the butterflies.

The Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) was used for the leaves which was cut with a Fern & Flora die (#168991). This was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and attached to the card. The Butterflies were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Congratulations” from the Extraordinary Flora stamp set (#165243) was also Gold embossed and cut with a die from the Paradise Garden. This was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Gears & Textures

Welcome everyone,

A great masculine card using the Gears & Textures dies (#166853).

The gears were cut from Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper (#165901) and Gold Foil sheet (#132622).

The Party Banners dies (#165264) were used to cut the banners from the Country Woods Designer Series Paper (#163393).

The card front is from the Wood Grain Wonders Designer Series Paper (#167428) and attached to the Very Vanilla base card (#166785).

I dry embossed a piece of the Night Of Navy Two Tone card stock (#166684) with the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder (#167744). This was then sanded to reveal the white core. I also tore the edge, again showing the white core.

I taped the two tone card and the banners to the card. The 2 larger gears were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and the small gold gear was attached to the larger one with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

The sentiment is from the Phrases & Frames stamp set (#167581) and this was stamped with Night Of Navy ink (#147110). A die from the Ferns & Flora dies (#168991) was used to cut the sentiment. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach this to the card. The embellishments are the Pressed Flower Motifs (#165215).

The card front is from the Splash Of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167200) and matted with Gorgeous Grape card (#147011). The basecard is Basic White (#166781).

The leaves were cut with the Delicate Whispers dies (#167505) from Gorgeous Grape card and Silver Foil Sheet (#163387). Both these cards were backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), so easily attached to the card front.

I stamped the frame from the Exciting Times stamp set (#167875) using VersaMark (#102283) and I added the Silver powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678), then set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The inside was punched with the co-ordinating Rounded Rectangle punch (#167880). The sentiment from the Exciting Times stamp set was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099). The frame was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and the sentiment was taped.

The butterflies are from the All Aflutter stamp set (#167564). I stamped the background of the butterflies with Highland Heather ink (#147103), then silver embossed the detailed butterflies. These were punched with the co-ordinating All Aflutter Punch (#167569). The butterflies were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Cutest Crew Bundle

Hi friends,

These cute kittens are from the Cutest Crew Bundle (#167149).

I stamped the images from the Cutest Crew stamp set (#167146) with Basic Black Hybrid ink (#166648) onto Basic White card (#166781). These were then coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Crumb Cake (#154882), Smoky Slate (#154904), Golden Glow (#167682), Cloud Cover (#165287), 400 from the Medium Deep (#159461) & 500 from the Medium (#159462) Natural tones, Azure Afternoon (#161672), Poppy Parade (#154958), Timid Tiger (#165291), Daffodil Delight (#154883) and Highland Heather (#154887).

I cut the strip of kittens with the die from the Cutest Crew dies (#167148). Then I fussy cut the kittens to separate them.

“H” & “B” are cut with the Party Alphabet dies (#165263) from Gold Foil Sheet (#132622). I stamped “Happy Birthday” from the retired Simply Said stamp set with VersaMark (#102283), then added Gold from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056).

The card front is from the Pastels Shimmer Specialty Paper (#167198) and embossed with the (retired) Soft Waves Embossing Folder. This was then matted with Secret Sea card (#165296) and attached to the Basic White base card.

The letters and words were attached to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). I hid the “H” & “B” from the words behind the gold letters. The gold butterfly is from the Gilded Wings Accents (#169953) which will be available in the July Online Exclusives.

I added Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) for some glimmer on the kittens.

Sunset Coast Dies

Hi again my friends,

I am making a variation from yesterday’s card using the circular “rays” die from the Sunset Coast dies (#167780).

The “rays” were cut from Blueberry Bushel card (#146991) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and the lighthouse was cut from Silver Foil (#163387). For the lighthouse I also used a die from the Spotlight On Nature dies (#163580) to cut the circle but then cut away the top part of the circle, leaving just the “rocks” area and lighthouse.

These die cuts were attached to the Splash Of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167200). The lighthouse was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The card front was matted with Blueberry Bushel card and attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

“Happy Birthday” from the Cutest Crew stamp set (#167146) was stamped with Blueberry Bushel ink (#147138) and cut with a Spotlight On Natures die.

The net, shells & starfish are also cut with dies from the Sunset Coast dies. The net was cut from Crumb Cake card (#121685) backed with Adhesive Sheet. I cut this in half and attached it to the card. The sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The silver foil shells & starfish were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
