Citrus Blooms

Hello everyone,

I love when the dies will cut images from the Designer paper as well as the stamp set. The Citrus Blooms dies (#163294) cuts some of the images from the co-ordinating Mediterranean Blooms 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#163284).

These oranges from the DSP were cut with the dies. The beautiful leafy frame was cut with 2 of the dies. They can be cut at the same time or separately. I used Lemon Lolly card (#161729) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). I also cut a piece of Very Vanilla Card (#106550) just with the outline die and dry embossed this with one of the Basics Embossing Folders (#161598). I then attached the Lemon Lolly die cut to the Very Vanilla piece. This was then attached to the Very Vanilla Base card.

“Just For You” from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283) was stamped with Garden Green ink (#147089). I used a die from the Round We Go Dies (#163729). This just cut the holes around the sentiment. I then cut this with a die from the Unbounded Love dies (#163383) as well as the Garden Green card (#108605) under the sentiment with the slightly larger die.

The oranges and sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). I used the Wink Of Stella (#141897) to add some glimmer to the oranges. The embellishments are from the Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots (#162758).

“Celebrate” is cut with dies from the Wanted To Say dies (#161594) using Very Vanilla card & Gold Foil Sheet (#132622). The Gold Foil was also backed with Adhesive Sheet. This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Lifetime Of Love Bundle

Hi my friends,

Today you can buy from the new Mini Catalogue and get some free products from Sale-a-bration. There are so many gorgeous products in both these catalogues. For this card I have used the Lifetime Of Love Bundle (#162584) and the Forever Love 12”x12” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#162573).

The Pretty Peacock & Gold flowers are from the DSP and cut with a co-ordinating die from the Lifetime Of Love Dies (#162583). I love when the dies co-ordinate with images in the DSP.

I stamped the same floral image from the Lifetime Of Love stamp set (#162574) onto Very Vanilla card (#106650) with Lost Lagoon ink (#161678). I then dry embossed this card with one of the Basics Embossing Folders (#161598). I matted this with Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) and Pretty Peacock card (#150886). I punched the corners with the Very Best Trio punch (#159878). The base card is also Very Vanilla.

I cut the fine leaf wreath and the 3 leaves using dies from the Lifetime Of Love dies. This Lost Lagoon card (#133686) was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting with the die. These were attached to the card front. The die cut flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I cut “Celebrate” using dies from the Wanted To Say dies (#161594) with Pretty Peacock Card and Gold Foil sheet. The gold Foil was also backed with Adhesive Sheet. I use adhesive sheet when cutting any fine detailed pieces as it is so much easier to attach them to the card. The small gold flowers are also cut with the Lifetime Of Love dies.
