Country Home Father’s day card

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). 

There are so many beautiful new products in the Holiday catalogue. Looking forward to showing you more of the products. If you would like a catalogue (and live in Australia), please contact me and I will send one to you.

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.

Bouquet Blooms Bundle

Welcome friends,

The Bouquet Blooms Bundle (#p148403) consists of the Bouquet Blooms stamp set (#p146503) and the Gatefold Blossoms Framelits Dies (#146354) and creates this beautiful gatefold note card. These framelits make it so easy to make this card which is just a little bit different.






Start with a piece of cardstock 9” x 5”. I used Gorgeous Grape card (#147011). Then there are 2 dies in the Gatefold Blossoms framelits to cut each end of the card. When these are cut out you will notice a small score mark and this is where you will score the card for folding. I added some Designer Series Paper from the Petal Promenade DSP (#146913) to the front as well as the inside of the card. The leaves from the Bouquet Blooms stamp set were stamped with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095). The flower from the same stamp set was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099) using the stampin’ off method and I used the lighter coloured flower. There is a die in the Gatefold Blossoms framelits to cut this flower, which I glued to the card with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309). Then I added the Glitter Enamel Dots (#146934) to the centre. Thanks is also stamped with the Gorgeous Grape ink and punched with the Classic Label punch (#141491).

Enjoy your day whatever you are doing - hopefully a bit of craft!!

Rooted In Nature Bundle

Hello friends,

The leaf from the Nature’s Roots Framelits Dies (#146341) has been used to make the petals for this flower. It’s great when there is more than one use for a product.



Firstly, I cut the outline of the leaf, from the Copper Foil Sheet (#142020) then I embossed the veins with another die from this set. I cut a circle and attached the petals with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) to form the flower. I stamped the round piece of timber with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) and sponged the edges with Soft Suede ink (#147115). This was fussy cut. The leaves were stamped with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095), then cut with a die from the Nature’s Roots framelits. These images are from the Rooted In Nature stamp set (#c146482, #w146479). Happy Birthday from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set (#c146667, #w146664) was stamped with Soft Suede ink. The Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (#144177) was attached to the Very Vanilla base card (#106550). A Glitter Enamel Dot (#146934) was added to the centre of the flower. The little Crushed Curry (#131288) flower was punched using a retired punch. The large flower was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

Have a great day.

Delicate Lace Edgelits

Hello,

The Delicate Lace Edgelits (#147053) consists of 3 beautiful dies for stunning edges, including this one which  I have cut the Rose Glimmer Paper (#146959) with.



I attached this to the Whisper White card (#106549). I stamped the floral image from the Floral Phrases stamp set (#c141767. #w141764) using Berry Burst ink (#147143). Celebrate has been cut from Basic Black card (#121688) and Berry Burst card (#144249). Both of these cards had the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet (#144106) adhered to them before cutting with the Celebrate You thinlits (#146840). I offset them slightly to give the shadow effect. The rectangular card was attached to the base card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

That’s all for today.

Bokey Dots

Hello everyone,

The Bokeh Dots stamp set (#c148113, #w148110) have 2 stamps - this one I have used on todays card and one with the typical Bokeh dots. These “DISINKTIVE” stamps create different opacities in a single stamped image.



I stamped the Bokeh Dots image with Balmy Blue ink (#147105) onto Whisper White card (#106549). I then attached this to a slightly larger piece of white card. The Balmy Blue card (#147007) was embossed with the Softly Falling Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#139672) and attached to the Whisper White base card. The balloons from Balloon Celebration (#p140675) have been stamped with Balmy Blue ink and punched with the Balloon Bouquet punch (#140609). One of the balloons was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I added sparkle to the balloons with the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897). Happy Birthday is cut with the Happy Birthday Thinlits (#143700) using Silver Foil Sheet (#132178), which I had adhered the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet (#144106) to the back before cutting. This adhesive sheet is great for the more detailed cutouts and makes it so easy to adhere it to the card - just remove the release paper on the back and stick it to the card.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Here’s one of many Sympathy cards I made today. I have used the Hold On To Hope stamp set (#c145780, #w145776).




The cardstock is Shimmery White (#121717) and Soft Sea Foam (#147012) with Gold Foil Sheet (#132622). The floral image was inked with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102).

The 2 pieces of Designer Series Paper were attached to the Shaded Spruce base card (#144252). I cut the detailed square using the Stained Glass thinlits (#146347) using Berry Burst card (#144249). I adhered the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet (#144106) to the back of the card before cutting it, to make it easy to attach this to the card.

Very Vintage birthday card

Hello,

I was very happy with the end result of this card using the Very Vintage stamp set (#c146801, #w146798).




The cardstock is Merry Merlot (#147005) and Very Vanilla (#106550). I stamped the flowers with Tranquil Tide ink (#147146), and again with Merry Merlot (#147112) which I fussy cut 4 of the flowers and added to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I stamped the background images using Crumb Cake ink (#147116) and wrapped the Very Vanilla 1/2” Lace Ribbon (#141672) around the card. This ribbon works well with this vintage look. Happy Birthday, also from the Very Vintage stamp set, is cut with a framelit from the Petals & More Thinlits (#145655). I added a Glitter Enamel Dot (#146934) to the label and this was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I have combined the Tea Room Copper Vinyl Stickers (#146314) with the Eastern Medallions framelits (#143725) on this card.

Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper

Hello ladies & guys,

The Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper (#146926) have hand painted designs on heavyweight paper, and some designs have a translucent pearlised finish which gives a beautiful look to the paper.




The Basket Weave 3D Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#146841) was used to emboss the Mint Macaron base card (#138344). The DSP was attached to a piece of Early Espresso card (#121686), then Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to adhere this to the cardbase. The Early Espresso circle was cut with the Stitched Shapes Framelits (#145372) and the Mint Macaron circle was cut with a die from the Layering Circles Framelits (#141705). “You’re a Blessing” from the Very Vintage stamp set (#c146801, #w146798) was stamped with Mint Macaron ink (#147106), then punched with the 1-3/8” Scallop Circle punch (#146139).

You’re Inspiring

Hello,

I was so happy with the new colour of Embossing powder I made yesterday, I couldn’t resist using it again today. Just in case you missed it, I wanted an embossing powder colour to match with the Champagne Foil Sheet (#144748). I just mixed equal quantities of Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109131) and Copper Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#141636) and its a perfect match.



I have used Whisper White card (#106549) and Champagne Foil Sheet. I stamped the flower from the You’re Inspiring stamp set (#c145808, #w145805) with VersaMark (#102283) then added the embossing powder and heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The sentiment is from the Accented Blooms stamp set (#c146681, #w146678) and also heat embossed. The ovals were cut with the Layering Ovals Framelits (#141706). My original idea was to colour the flowers and leaves, but once I was assembling the card, I decided I liked it just as it was - nice and simple.

Here are some great deals for August -
