Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper

Hello everyone,

This beautiful Designer Series Paper is Painterly Pears (#166146).

I dry embossed the Very Vanilla card front (#166785) with the Joined Together 3D Embossing Folder (#165170). I taped the darker piece of the DSP to the card front.

The other piece of DSP was cut with a Perennial Postage die (#162607). The sentiment from the Simply Said stamp set (#163756) was stamped with Secret Sea ink (#165285) and also cut with a Perennial Postage die. These 2 die cut pieces were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The leaves were cut with Gallery Blooms dies (#165212) using Secret Sea card (#165296) and Cloud Cover card (#165293). I backed the cardstock with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting with the dies.

I daubered around the card front with Secret Sea ink, then attached it to the Very Vanilla base card.

Gallery Blooms dies & Charming Day dies

Hello again friends,

These leaves are cut using the Gallery Blooms dies (#165212) and the Charming Days dies (#166135).

For the background, I stamped an image from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set (#165198) onto Basic White card (#166781) with Crumb Cake ink (#147116), I then stamped the “blotches” from the Elements Of Text stamp set (#164774). This card was then dry embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder (#161600), then matted with Pecan Pie card (#161726) and attached to the Basic White base card.

I stamped another image from the Elements Of Text stamp set using Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102), then cut this with a die from the Textured Notes dies (#165555). I attached this to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The leaves were cut with card which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). The coloured cards used are Granny Apple Green (#147014), Pecan Pie, Cajun Craze (#121683) and Crushed Curry (#131288).

Along These Lines stamp set

Hello friends,

This cute puppy & heart are from the Along These Lines stamp set (#165352). I thought it co-ordinated well with the sentiment from the Blooming Phrases stamp set (#165523) with the line art. These are in the upcoming catalogue and Online Exclusives available from the 6th May.

I stamped the puppy & heart with VersaMark (#102283) onto a piece of Shaded Hues 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#166260). This DSP is retiring. I added the Copper powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165678) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). This DSP was then dry embossed with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317).

The frames are cut with a die from the Gallery Blooms dies (#165212). This die cuts 2 sized frames at the same time. So I cut the Bright Copper from the Metallics 12”x12” Specialty Paper (#163772) and used the larger frame, then the Coastal Cabana card (#131302) for the smaller frame. I then stamped the sentiment from the Blooming Phases stamp set and this was also heat embossed with Copper.

I attached the frames to the stamped DSP, then attached them to the Very Vanilla card base (#106550). I added the Sunny Day Iridescent Dots (#164696) to the card
