Serene Love Designer Series Paper

Hi friends,

This fussy cut flower is also from the Serene Love Designer Series Paper (#166261). I have used the Lost Lagoon flowers on recent cards & scrapbook pages from the same pack.

The Basic White card front (#159228) was dry embossed with a Basics Embossing Folder (now retired), and matted with Real Red card (#106578). This was attached to the Basic White base card.

A piece of the Serene Love DSP was attached to the bottom of the card front. I cut a piece of the Country Lace Designer Series Paper (#163415) with a Deckled Circles Die (#162286) and attached this to the card.

A Lifetime Of Love die (#162583) was used to cut the Real Red card for the circle of leaves. This card was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and attached to the card.

“Happy Birthday” from the Magnolia Mood stamp set (also retired) was stamped with Real Red ink (#147084) and cut with a die from the Happy Hibiscus (#164879).

The flower & sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The embellishments are from the Opal Rounds Assortment (#163298).

Forever Love Specialty Designer Series Paper

Hello again my friends,

The Forever Love Specialty Designer Series Paper (#162573) is another beautiful DSP and I have used it for the flowers, leaves and the background behind the flowers.

The flowers were fussy cut and the leaves were cut with a Lifetime Of Love die (#162583). There are also other designs in the DSP that can be cut with the dies.

The sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Pretty Peacock ink (#150083). This and the other piece of DSP were cut with Everyday Details dies (#162864) and I matted these with Pretty Peacock card (#150886).

The Very Vanilla card front (#106550) was dry embossed with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder (#162189) and also matted with Pretty Peacock card, then attached to the Very Vanilla base card.

I taped the larger die-cut rectangle to the card front. The flowers and sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and the leaves with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The Pretty Peacock embellishments are from the Petal Pink & Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems (#162587).

Lifetime Of Love

Hello friends,

I have used a combination of products on this pretty card, including the Lifetime Of Love Dies (#162583) and the Thoughtful Expressions Bundle (#162822).

The Basic White card front (#159228) was dry embossed with the Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder from the Softly Sophisticated Bundle (#162947) from Sale-a-bration. This was matted with Flirty Flamingo card (#141421) then attached to the Basic White base card.

I used Parakeet Party card (#159260) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to cut the leaves & the leaves joined by the “arch”. The fine die cut flowers were cut with a die from the Thoughtful Expressions die (162821) using Flirty Flamingo card.

The stamped flowers are from the Thoughtful Expressions stamp set (#162815). This was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and coloured with the following Stampin’ Blends - Flirty Flamingo (#154884), Parakeet Party (#159220), Azure Afternoon (#161672) and Lemon Lolly (#161673). These were also cut with the Thoughtful Expressions dies. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the Flirty Flamingo floral image and Mini Glue Dots (#103683) for the Azure Afternoon floral image.

“With Sympathy” is cut & embossed with the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder (#162927) and Gold Foil Sheet (#132622).

The flowers were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves are cut with a die from the Lifetime Of Love dies (#162583). I used Granny Apple Green card (#147014) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) for the leaves.
