Scalloped Wishes Bundle

Hi friends,

The Scalloped Wishes Bundle (#167453) consists of the Scalloped Wishes stamp set (#167447) and the Scalloped Wishes dies (#167452).

I stamped the scalloped image with Hydrangea Hue ink (#167677) and cut this with the co-ordinating die. The Hyrdragea Hue card (#167688) was cut with another die.

The sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283) was also stamped with Hydrangea Hue ink and cut with the same die used for the Hydrangea Hue card to cut the oval which would then fit inside the scalloped die. I glued the sentiment & Scalloped die cut to the stamped image with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755).

The Delicate Dreams Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167498) was matted with Hydrangea Hue card and attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

“Happiest Birthday Wishes” from the Notes Of Spring stamp set (#167979) was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I used the White powder from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165679).

Gold Foil (#132622) was used for the Dragonfly and flowers which are from the Scalloped Wishes dies. The scallop, dragonfly and flowers were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The embellishments are from the Moody Palette Glossy Dots (#167180).

I am using the Swirled Designs Bundle (#167311) today, which is retiring, so available from the Last Chance products. The bundle consists of the Swirled Designs stamp set (#167030) and the Swirled Designs dies (#167032).

The splotches from the stamp set were stamped with “stamped off” Crumb Cake ink (#147116). I then dry embossed this with the retired Exposed Brick Embossing Folder. I used the Earthen Toned Specialty Paper (#165901) to matt the card front and attached it to the Very Vanilla base card (#166785).

The “diamonds” were also cut from this specialty paper which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) using the Swirled Designs dies.

The puppies are from the Cutest Crew stamp set (#167146). These were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Crumb Cake (#154882), Smoky Slate (#154904), Pecan Pie (#161674), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Real Red (#154899), Bubble Bath (#161675) and Granny Apple Green (#154885). The puppies were cut with a Cutest Crew die (#167148).

The sentiment is also from the Cutest Crew stamp set and stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I added Copper powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I matted the sentiment with the Earthen Toned Specialty Paper, then this and the puppies were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Pressed Flower Motifs (#165215) were added to the card.

Both sentiments were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I used the Copper powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) which was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). “Happy Birthday” is from Simply Said stamp set (#163756) and the other one is from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283).
