Spotlight On Nature Dies

 Hello again,

Anyone who knows me, know that I love butterflies, so I like to used them on my cards whenever possible. This stamped butterfly is from the Sketches Butterflies stamp set (#163490).




The butterfly was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) on Daffodil Delight card (#121680). I added Black powder from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165679) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The butterfly was cut with a Sketched Butterflies die (#163491).

I stamped the sentiment, from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set, also with Black embossing powder on Basic White card (#159228). The DSP from the Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper (#163284), the sentiment and the Daffodil Delight circles were cut with Spotlight On Nature dies (#163580).

The Basic White card front was dry embossed with the Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder (#163789). The edges were daubered with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) and attached to the Basic White base card. I attached the butterfly and circles to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) were added to finish the card.

Loveliest Tree Bundle

 Welcome again friends,

An easy card for this sympathy card using the Loveliest Tree Bundle (#163716).




The tree from the Loveliest Tree stamp set (#163714) was stamped with Garden Green ink (#147089) on Basic White card (#159228). I then added more colour to the tree using a Dauber and Garden Green ink. I used Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends (#161674) to colour the trunk. The tree was then cut with the co-ordinating Loveliest Tree dies (#163715).

I matted the Nature’s Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper (#162616) with Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) and attached this to the Basic White base card.

I dry embossed a smaller piece of Gold Foil with one of the Basics Embossing Folders (#161598) and attached it to the card front. The tree was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The sentiment, also from the Loveliest Tree stamp set, was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with the Gold from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165678). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I cut the sentiment with a Wild Ferns die (#162654). This was attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Changing Leaves

 Hello again,

Tomorrow (3rd July) there will be a more new Online Exclusive products available and one of the products is the Changing Leaves Bundle (#164139). This bundle includes the Changing Leaves stamp set (#164351) and the Changing Leaves Hybrid Embossing Folder (#164138). This hybrid embossing folder includes the folder as well as the dies. The folder can be used alone or add the dies by snapping the die into the folder and when this is run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with card, you have cut & embossed leaves.




I have just used the embossing folder to dry emboss the Soft Sea Foam card front (#147012). I stamped the leaves using Old Olive ink (#147090) on Old Olive card (#106576), and Crushed Curry ink (#147087) on Crushed Curry card (#131288). These leaves and the detailed leaves are all cut with the dies. The card stock for these leaves are Cherry Cobbler (#121681), Mossy Meadow (#133683) and Pecan Pie (#161726). I had backed these cards with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting with the dies.

I attached all the detailed die cut leaves to the card front and the stamped leaves were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The sentiment is from the Changing Leaves stamp set and I used Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083), then used a Changing Leaves die to cut it. The embellishments are the retired Adhesive-Backed Cork Dies.
