Hues Of Happiness

Hello again,

The Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper (#158822) has a great range of beautiful & bright designs.

I matted the 2 pieces of DSP with Melon Mambo card (#119980). I cut the Basic White card (#159228) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), with a die from the Autumn Bouquet Dies (#159837). This was adhered to the card front, then I attached the smaller matted DSP.

The flower from the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554). This was then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The flower was then cut with a Blossoming Happiness Die (#158824). “Best wishes” from the same stamp set was stamped with Melon Mambo ink (#147051) then cut with a Potted Succulents die 154330). The flower & sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I used Granny Apple Green card (#147014), also backed with Adhesive Sheet, for the leaves which are from the Flowers Of Home dies (#157938). I added glimmer to the flower with the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897).

Fond Of Autumn Bundle

Hi friends,

I have used the Fond Of Autumn stamp set (#160266) but decided on using more spring/summer colours as it’s that time of year in Australia, and starting to warm up too quickly.

I stamped the image twice using Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). The flowers and leaves were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Fresh Freesia (#155518), Polished Pink (#155520), Flirty Flamingo (#154884), Granny Apple Green (#154885) and Daffodil Delight (#154883). These were then cut with a die from the Autumn Bouquet Dies (#159837). One of the dies cuts this image into 4 different pieces, so that’s the die I used. I didn't used the middle part with the larger leaves but I am sure I will find a use for them on another card.

I cut the Basic White card front with the Split Card Textures Dies (#159162) and attached this to the Polished Pink card (#155711). The base card is also Basic White. I attached the flowers & leaves to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“ Just a Note” from the Fond Of Autumn stamp set was stamped with Polished Pink ink (#155712) and cut with a Potted Succulent die (#154330). I used the White Pearlised Enamel Effects Basics (#156310) for the centre of the flowers. Clear Wink Of Stella (#14897) was added to the flowers for that bit of sparkle.

Forever Fern

Hello my friends,

Sara, the CEO of Stampin’ Up! was demonstrating an easy technique called “stamp painting” so I have used this on the leaves from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559) to give a variation in colours to the leaves.

I used this technique on the 3 stamped leaves. I added a small amount of ink refill onto a clear block. The colours used are Soft Suede (#115663), Cherry Cobbler (#119788) and Pumpkin Pie (#105229). I inked the stamp with Old Olive ink (#147090) as usual. Then using the wider brush of the Water Painters (#151298), I picked up a small amount of ink on the brush and applied it around the edge of the stamp. I stamped the image onto Shimmery White card (#121717). I repeated this with each of the colours and using the Old Olive ink for the base colour of each of the leaves. These leaves were cut with the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714).

The Bronze Foil from the Brushed Metallic cardstock (#153524) was also cut with a Forever Flourishing Die which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334).

I stamped the image from the Fond Of Autumn stamp set (#160266) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and cut with a die from the Autumn Bouquet dies (#159837). The die to cut this image cuts the image into 4 separate images so I only used one of the cut images. This was coloured with Old Olive Stampin’ Blends (#154892), Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends (#154882), Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends (#154880) and Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends (#154890).

“Happy Birthday” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763), stamped with Old Olive ink (#147090) and cut with a Frosted Flurry die (#159811).

The card front is from the Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper (#159161) and matted with Old Olive card (#106576). The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550). Classic Matte Dots (#158146) were added to the card and I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to add glimmer to all the stamped images.

Fond Of Autumn stamp set

Hi again friends,

Firstly, I am having a few weeks off so unfortunately I won’t have any cards for the blog till the end of the month after today.

I have made a third card using the Fond Of Autumn bundle (#159838). Each of these cards are totally different so it’s great to be able to get variety from a set. I have paired this with the wreath die from the Natural Prints dies (#158800).

The flowers & leaves from the Fond Of Autumn stamp set (#160266) were stamped on Basic White card (#159228) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). These were coloured with Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends (#159224), Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends (#159220) and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883).

The sentiment and banner is from the same stamp set and I used Daffodil Delight (#147094) and Sweet Sorbet inks (#159216). The banner, flowers & leaves were cut with the Autumn Bouquet dies (#159837).

The Basic White card front was dry embossed with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder (#158804). This was matted with Sweet Sorbet card (#159266), then attached to the Basic White base card.

The Wreath was cut from Daffodil Delight card (#121680) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) which makes this detailed wreath easy to attach to the card. The flowers and banner were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and the leaves with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

Autumn Bouquet Dies

Hello friends,

I am using the Fond Of Autumn bundle (#159838) again today. The Autumn Bouquet Dies (#159837) have 2 larger dies that cut the floral image in 2 different ways. One die cuts the whole image like I used on yesterdays card. The other die cuts the image in 4 parts as shown below.

I chose only the flowers and the 2 sets of leaves for todays card.

The image from the Fond Of Autumn stamp set (#160266) was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). The Stampin’ Blends used to colour this are Pale Papaya (#155519), Pumpkin Pie (#154897), Mossy Meadow (#154890), Old Olive (#154892) and Daffodil Delight (#154883).

I dry embossed the Pale Papaya card (#155669) with the Gingham Embossing Folder (#157627) and matted this with Basic Black card (#121688). The base card is Basic White (#159228).

The frame is cut with a die from the Fabulous Frames (#159163) using the Distressed Gold Specialty Paper (#159237). This was glued to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755).  Basic White card was used for the inside of the frame. “Thank You” from the Fond Of Autumn stamp set was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. The 2 sets of leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and the flowers with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The embellishments are from the 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds (#159185).

Fond Of Autumn Bundle

Hi crafty friends,

I have just received the Fond Of Autumn Bundle (#159838) and couldn't wait to play with it.

I stamped the image from the Fond Of Autumn stamp set (#160266) on Basic White card (#159228) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). The Stampin’ Blends used to colour this are Soft Succulent (#155521), Mossy Meadow (#154890), Granny Apple Green (#154885), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Crumb Cake (#154882) and Poppy Parade (#154958). I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to add some sparkle.

The sentiment and banner are also from the same stamp set. The banner was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and the sentiment with Crushed Curry ink (#147087). As this stamp set is photopolymer I was able to curved the sentiment to fit the curve of the banner.

I cut the detailed cut-out on the Crushed Curry card (#131288), the floral image and banner with dies from the Autumn Bouquet dies (#159837). The stamped image & banner were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Festive Pearls (#159963) were added to the banner & flower centres. The base card is Basic White.
