Timeless Celebrations Bundle

Hello again everyone,

The Timeless Celebrations Bundle (#169859) includes the Timeless Celebrations stamp set (#169853) and the Timeless Celebrations Hybrid Embossing Folder (#169858). The hybrid embossing folder also includes all the dies and one of the dies fits into the folder to cut & emboss at one time. The folder & die can be used separately as normal, so lots of choices.

I used the Hybrid folder & die to cut & emboss the Basic White card (#166781) and only used the 4 edge pieces for this card. These were taped to a piece of the Gold Striped Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper (#169735). This was then attached to the Basic White base card.

I stamped the floral images from the stamp set with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) and cut it with the co-ordinating die. I then realised this co-ordinated with the embossed image from the centre of the Embossing folder so I then embossed the 3 stamped images. These were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Celebrate” is from the Classic Greetings Hot Foil Dies (#170042) and “Have A Lovely Day” is from the Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foil Dies (#170052). These were hot foiled with the Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil (#170066) and cut with the co-ordinating cutting dies. These were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Shining Stars Dies

Hi friends,

The Shining Stars dies (#168600) are the October Product Of The Month. These are available with a qualifying $125 order (in Australia) for just $9. With such a great deal I’m sure these will sell out quickly so don't waste time if you would like these fantastic dies. There are 23 dies in the set.

The gold stars were cut from the Timeless Metallic Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168548) and I used the Shimmering Stripes Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168197) for the white star.

For the card front I used the Swiss Dots Hot Foil Dies (#170075) and Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls (#170066). This was matted with Real Red card (#106578) and attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

The sentiment is from the Magical Christmas Hot Foil Dies (#170592) & the Gold Foil was also used.

I attached the larger stars together with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). Then these were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The small stars were attached with Mini Glue Dots and the sentiment with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Lustrous Leaves Hot Foil Dies

Hi everyone,

I am back after a couple of really busy days, so I’m sorry for my absence. Today I am using the Lustrous Leaves Hot Foil Dies (#170558) with Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil (#170066).

I used Peaceful Pine Two-Tone card (#167698), Crushed Curry card (#131288) and Cherry Cobbler card (#121681) for the leaves. I used the Two Tone card for the reverse image as this is smoother and works better for the reverse image. All the leaves were cut with the cutting dies from the Lustrous Leaves Hot Foil Dies. When I foiled the reverse image there is some excess gold around the edges so I cut the smaller leaves from that foil. I don't like to waste any of this beautiful hot foil.

The sentiment is from the retired Beautiful Motifs stamp set and stamped with Peaceful Pine ink (#167679).

I used the (retired) Eyelet Blooms Die for the Very Vanilla card front (#166785) and matted this with Peaceful Pine card (#167692) and attached it to the Very Vanilla base card.

I stamped the vertical strip of Very Vanilla card with an image from the Echos Of Detail stamp set (#170046) using Basic Beige ink (#163806). This was matted with Crushed Curry card. The sentiment was matted with Peaceful Pine card.

The leaves were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Timeless Metallic Specialty Paper

Hi everyone,

A sneak peek today of the gorgeous Timeless Metallic Specialty Paper (#168548) from the upcoming catalogue. This paper is in red, green & gold and has a beautiful metallic shine, and all used on this card. It also works beautifully with the hot foiling which I have used on the butterfly & sentiment. I just love the results which look much better in real life.

I used the Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil (#170066) for the butterfly & sentiment. The butterfly is from the Butterfly Flight Hot Foil Dies (#170045) and was cut with the co-ordinating cutting die from the same set. “Happy Birthday” is from the Classic Greetings Hot Foil dies (#170042) and also cut with the co-ordinating cutting die.

The Soft Sea Foam card front (#147012) was Gold foiled with the Swiss Dots Hot Foil Dies (#170075) and I matted this with Real Red card (#106578) and attached it to the Basic White base card (#166781).

The leaves were cut with the cutting dies also from the Butterfly Flight dies and I attached these to the card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). The butterfly & sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).
