Petal Park

Hello stamping friends,

The Petal Park stamp set (#160571) and the Petal Park Builder punch (#160576) are available separately or you can get them together in the Petal Park Bundle (#160576) which as usual you get a 10% discount when purchasing a bundle.

I stamped the leaves with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104) onto Basic White card (#159228). This is a Two-step stamping set and there is another stamp to stamp inside the leaves. However I chose to colour the leaves with the Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends (#154902) on this card.

The flowers can also be stamped with Two-Step stamping, but I have chosen just to stamp with the “inside” stamp. It’s great when there are different ways of using any stamps. These three flowers are all in one stamp so I actually stamped 3 times with the different inks. I used Orchid Oasis (#159214), Real Red (#147084) and Mango Melody (#147093). These flowers were then punched with the Petal Park Builder Punch and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I attached the piece of Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper (#160834) to the bottom part of the White card, then matted this with the Orchard Oasis card (#159265). I wrapped the Orchard Oasis Metallic Woven Ribbon (#159199) around the card front then attached it to the Basic White base card.

Happy Birthday from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Orchard Oasis ink. The labels for the sentiment were cut with dies from the Something Fancy Dies (#160424) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (104430).

Two-Tone Flora Bundle

Hi everyone,

The Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) is a Two-Step stamping set, so you can stamp 2 different colours on the flowers - one for the outline and one for the solid colour.

I stamped 3 flowers with the “outline” of the flowers using VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555). This needs to be set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The leaves were also gold embossed. I then stamped the flowers with the solid colours using Balmy Blue ink (#147105), Pool Party ink (#147107) and Calypso Coral Ink (#147101). The leaves and flowers were cut with the Two-Tone Flora Dies (#159181).

The Fancy Flora 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#160413) was matted with the gold from the Fine Shimmer 12”x12” Paper Pack (#160428) then attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). 

“Happy Birthday” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) and also Gold Embossed. I used a Seasonal Labels Die (#156299) to cut the sentiment.

The sentiment, Balmy Blue & Calypso Coral flowers and the leaf near the sentiment were all attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Mini Glue Dots (#103683) were used to attach the other flower & leaves. The embellishments are the Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls (#160449).

TIP: To save your gold shimmer paper (or other specialty papers) cut a piece from the middle before attaching the DSP on top.

Adorable Owls

Hello,

Another cute card with the adorable owls from the Adorable Owls stamp set (#160269) which is one of the Sale-a-bration products.

I stamped the owl 3 times using Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) on Basic White card (#159228). I coloured them with Stampin’ Blends - Petal Pink (#154893), 600 from the Medium Natural Tones (#159462), Balmy Blue (#154830) and Pumpkin Pie (#154897). These were the fussy cut.

I used the By The Sea Designer Series Paper (#160434) and dry embossed this with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317) & then matted it with Balmy Blue card (#147007) and attached to the Basic White base card.

“It’s Your Day” is also from the Adorable Owls stamp set and stamped with Balmy Blue Ink (#147105). The die to cut this is from the Cracker & Treat Box dies (#159182). This set has 5 different dies to cut labels which are very handy to have.

The sentiment was attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and the owls with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). As usual I had to add some Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) whichI did to the darker parts of the owls.

I used Granny Apple Green (#154885), Highland Heather (#154887) and Flirty Flamingo (#154884). The bee was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I added Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056).

Vintage Tools

Hello crafty friends,

I made this card yesterday for my husband to distract me while he was having knee surgery. He is a handyman so I have used the Vintage Tools stamp set (#159098) and I made a “tool box”.

I used Smokey Slate card (#131291) for the “tool box”. I cut a piece 9cm x 29.5 cm. I scored each end at 1.5cm, 3cm, 4.5cm, 6cm & 7.5cm. I cut 2 pieces 14.5cm x 9cm and these were attached inside the box and this is where I attached the tools.

The tools were stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#147116), Basic Gray ink (#149165), Soft Suede ink (#147115), Smokey Slate ink (#147113), Tuxedo Black memento ink (#132708) and Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083). These tools were fussy cut and attached to the card. The sentiments were also stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink. “Thinking Of You” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) and “Feel Better Real Soon” is from the Cottage Rose stamp set (#159040). These were cut with Stitched Rectangles dies (#151820).

I dry embossed the Silver Foil (#156457) with the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder (#160766). I matted the piece for the front with Cherry Cobbler card (#147083) and attached the other piece to the Smokey Slate card for the back. This piece measures 14.5cm x 15cm. The corners were punched with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878).

The sentiments and the planer on the front were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The nails were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

Petal Park bundle

Hello,

The Petal Park Bundle (#160577) consists of the Petal Park stamp set (#160571) and the Petal park Builder Punch (#160576). This stamp set is a Two-step stamp set which allows you to stamp the outline image with one colour and another colour for the inside. Alternately the images could be coloured with your favourite colouring technique.

I stamped the leaves outline with Old Olive ink (#147090) and the inside with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104) on Basic White card (#159228). I stamped the flowers with Flirty Flamingo ink (#147052). I stamped the outline, then with the other stamp for the inside, I stamped off before stamping. This gives a lighter colour. I cut this card and the Flirty Flamingo card (#141421) with the Layering Diorama Dies (#155565). I stamped the small splotches with Flirty Flamingo ink.

 On another piece of Basic white card I stamped the flowers again.  These flowers were then punched with the Pearl Park Builder Punch and attached them to the card over the other stamped flowers with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). You can’t see the underneath flowers in the photo but you can on the actual card.

“Thinking Of You” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink then cut with a die from the Pretty Pillowbox (#156321). 

The Basic White card front was dry embossed with the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder (#160766) and attached to the Basic White base card. 

The embellishments are from the Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls (#160449) and I used the now retired Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics for the flower centres.

Ready To Ride Specialty Designer Series Paper

Hello again my crafty friends,

These gorgeous flowers are from the Ready To Ride Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160752). This DSP is basically masculine designs as it co-ordinates with the Legendary Ride bundle (#160763) but who says that only men ride bikes, and some of the designs can be used for female cards.

I fussy cut the flowers. The DSP for the background is from the Like An Animal Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160841) and matted with Crushed Curry card (#131288). The base card is Basic White (#159228).

The Crushed Curry circle was cut with a die from the Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183) and attached to the card. The flowers on top were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Happy Birthday” is from my favourite stamp set - Go To Greetings (#158763) and stamped with Crushed Curry ink (#147087). I used a Potted Succulent die (#154330) to cut the sentiment. This was also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. 

A really easy card, just a bit of fussy cutting and I know not everyone likes fussy cutting. I think we have all been spoilt with all the co-ordinating dies.

Sentimental Park

Hello everyone,

The bundle I have used today is the Sentimental Park Bundle (#160567), which includes the Sentimental Park stamp set (#160561) and the Sentimental Park dies (#160566).

The Designer Series Paper is from Sale-a-bration and is the Dandy Designs 12”x12” DSP (#160836). This is free with a $180 order in Australia. It consists of 48 sheets with 4 each of 12 double sided designs, so great value.

I wrapped the Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon (#155615) around the DSP then I attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The group of small flowers were stamped with Fresh Freesia Ink (#155611). This is a Two-Step stamp, so I stamped the outline of the flowers as normal, then with the second stamp I inked it with the same ink, stamped off onto scrap paper then stamped on top of the outlined flowers. This gives the 2 tones of ink. The sentiment was also stamped with Fresh Freesia ink. The flowers and the labels were all cut with the Sentimental park dies. The gold card is from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428). The gold label with the flowers is cut so you can slip the label with the sentiment under the flowers .

The sentiment, stamped flowers & the larger die cut flower at the top right were all attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The smaller flowers were all attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The Fresh Freesia card (#155614) was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting the flower which I put on top of the gold flower.

Nested Friends

Hi stamping friends,

These cute little birds are from the Nested Friends stamp set (#160322) which are part of the Nested Friends Bundle (#160489).

I stamped the birds with Balmy Blue ink (#147105), Fresh Freesia ink (#155611) and Pale Papaya ink (#155670). They were then coloured with co-ordinating Stampin’ Blends - Balmy Blue (#154830), Fresh Freesia (#155518) & Pale Papaya (#155519). The branch from the same stamp set was stamped with Granny Apple Gree ink (#147095) and the leaves coloured with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885).

The birds, branch & small leaves from Granny Apple Green card (#147014) were all cut with the Nested Friends dies (#160488).

I punched the corners of the Granny Apple Green card and the Vellum Basics 12”x12” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#160839) with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878), then attached these to the Basic White base card (#159228). 

The small leaves had Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back for ease of attaching these to the card. The branch was attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and the birds with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Thank You” is from the Nested Friends stamp set and stamped with Granny Apple Green ink. A Tailor Made Tags Die (#155563) was used to cut the sentiment, then attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Gold Simply Elegant Trim (#155766) was threaded through the tag.

TIP: When attaching the vellum to the card, only use adhesive where it will be hidden as it will show through. I find the easiest way is to attach all the elements to the vellum first, then you can see on the back of the vellum where to add the adhesive. I then attached adhesive under the small leaves, the branch, birds & sentiment.

Around The Bend

Hello again,

I have used the 3 different colours from the Fine Shimmer 12”x12” Paper Pack (#160428) on this card. The colours are Soft Succulent, Fresh Freesia and Gold and look great together and I love the shimmer.

The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550). The Soft Succulent paper was cut with a die from the Around The Bend Dies (#160649) and attached to the base card. The flowers & leaves were also cut with the Around The Bend dies. With 3 of the flowers I added extra colour using a Dauber (#133773) with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099). The 2 lighter coloured flowers were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and the 3 darker ones were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The gold leaves were also attached with Mini Glue Dots. The flower centres were glued with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755).

“Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings Stamp set (#158763) was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was stamped on the Pearlescent Specialty Paper (#154291). The sentiment and Gold paper were cut with Stitched Rectangles Dies (#151820), then attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The embellishments are the Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls (#160449).

Around The Bend

Hi stamping friends,

The Fine Shimmer Paper (#160428) and the Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper (#160833) look beautiful together on this card. The Favored Flowers DSP is from the Sale-a-bration products.

I stamped the line and spots from the Around The Bend stamp set (#160853) onto Basic White card (#159228). I used VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Embossing Powder (#155555) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was cut with a die from the Around The Bend (#160649). I attached the DSP to the Gorgeous Grape card (#147011) and attached the die cut scalloped card on top. The Fresh Freesia from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428) was cut with another die from the Around The Bend dies, and attached on top of the card.

“Thinking Of You” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763). I stamped this with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099) using the Stamparatus (#148187). Without moving the stamp, I re-stamped this with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed it with Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set it with the Heat Tool. A Pretty Pillowbox Die (#156321) was used to cut the sentiment. This was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

In The Country from Saleabration

Hello again,

I have used the second image from the In The Country stamp set (#160828) from Sale-a-bration which is now underway.

I stamped this image with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228) and coloured it with Stampin’ Blends. The colours I used are Crumb Cake (#154882), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Poppy Parade (#154958), Balmy Blue (#154830), Granny Apple Green (#154885), Soft Succulent (#155521), 700, 800 (#159463) & 300 (#159461) from the Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends.

Using a Small Blending Brush (#160518) I added the Balmy Blue ink (#147105) to the background. I used a Stitched With Whimsey Die (#155314) for the stitching around the edge. This was then matted with Poppy Parade card (#121694) and attached to the Basic White base card.

“Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Poppy Parade ink (#147050), then cut with a Potted Succulents Die (#154330). I lightly added Granny Apple Green ink (#147095) to the sentiment using a Small Blending Brush and attached it to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

In The Country stamp set

Hi my friends,

The image on this card is from the Sale-a-bration stamp set, In The Country (#160828), and I have coloured it with Stampin’ Blends.

I used the following Stampin’ Blends - Soft Suede (#154906), Ivory (#154922), Soft Sea Foam (#154902), Mossy Meadow (#154890), 500 from the Medium Natural Tones (#159462), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Old Olive (#154892) and Granny Apple Green (#154885).

I cut the Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) and the Pear Pizzaz card (#131290) with the Layering Diorama Dies (#155565). The Soft Sea Foam card was dry embossed with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder (#156406). These were attached to the Basic White base card (#159228) with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Birthday Wishes” is from the Nested Friends stamp set (#160322) and stamped with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104). A die from the Potted Succulents (#154330) was used to cut the sentiment, then attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Nested Friends

Hello friends,

Another bundle which is new in the mini catalogue is the Nested Friends Bundle (#160489). I love that Stampin’ Up! have now named the stamp sets, dies and bundle all the same, so the Nested Friends Bundle includes the Nested Friends stamp set (#160322) and the Nested Friends Dies (#160488). This will make it so much easier to remember the names of the co-ordinating products.

The bird and sentiment are from this stamp set. The bird was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and the sentiment with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). I coloured the bird with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends (#154958) for the beak.

The bird and nest were cut with the Nested Friends Dies. I used Crumb Cake card (#121685) and Soft Suede card (#119982) for the nest. The green leaves were cut with a die from the Dainty Delight Dies (#160674) using Old Olive card (#106576) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334).

I dry embossed the Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder (#156406). This card and the Old Olive card had the corners punched with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878). This was then attached to the Very Vanilla base card (#106550).

The sentiment & nest were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).
