Brilliance Wings Dies

Hi my friends,

I think the hardest part of this card was deciding what sentiment to use that would fit on the card, but managed to get suitable ones from the Many Messages stamp (#154510).

The Designer Series Paper is Butterfly Bijou 6”x6”, which unfortunately is no longer available as it sold out very quickly, but I hope you were able to get a pack. The Brilliant Wings Dies (#155523) fit perfectly on this design (as shown below) to cut out each of the butterflies. Although the butterflies on this die are all joined together, it actually cuts the butterflies individually. If you didn't get the DSP,  you can stamp the butterflies with the Butterfly Brilliance stamp set (#155092) and cut them with the dies.

I then turned over the DSP and then placed the butterflies back where they were cut from, so this gave me the different background which is on the reverse of the butterflies. I cut a piece from the left and right side of the DSP so it measures 13cms across. I didn't cut anything from the top or bottom so the size is 13cm x 15cm. The finished card is 16cm x 14cm.

I cut a piece of Basic White card (#159228) the same size as the DSP. I dry embossed the white card with the Pinewood Planks 3D Embossing Folder (#152320) and glued the DSP to the embossed card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). I attached each of the butterflies with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). When the wings of the butterflies are curved up you can see the embossed card underneath.

The sentiments are from the Many Messages stamp (#154510) which has a great range of sentiments. The co-ordinating Messages Die (#154422) cut the sentiments which were stamped with Crushed Curry ink (#147087). Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) were used to attach the sentiments.

As usual I added glimmer to the butterflies using the Clear Wink OF Stella Glitter Brush (#141897).

Hope your day has been a good one.

Seashells 3D Embossing Folder

Hi everyone,

You can make a very easy card with the beautiful Seashells 3D Embossing Folder (#154309).

I dry embossed the Champagne Foil Sheet (#144748) with the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder. This was attached to Cherry Cobbler card (#121681), then onto the Very Vanilla card (#106550).

I stamped the sentiment from the Many Messages stamp set (#154510) with Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083). The “Happy Birthday” and “congratulations  are positioned together on the stamp, so instead of cutting them separately with the co-ordinating Messages Die #(#154422), I cut them with the Stitched Nested Labels dies (#149638). The smaller banners are also cut with the Nested Labels dies. The sentiment was then attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I coloured the Pearl Basic Jewels (#144219) with Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends (#154880) before attaching them to the card.

Enjoy your day!!

Art Gallery Bundle

Hello everyone,

Today’s card shows 2 stamp sets which will be available in January - the Art Gallery stamp set (#154421) and the Many Messages stamp set (#154510).

Firstly I created the background on the Very Vanilla card (#106550) using Shimmery White Embossing Paste (#145645) and adding a drop (a little goes a long way) of So Saffron re-inker (#154905). I mixed the ink with the paste then using one of the Basic Pattern Decorative Masks (#150697), placed the mask on top of the card then I applied the paste over the top. I didn't want a perfect finish so just randomly spread the paste using a Palette Knife (#142808). This embossing paste sets quickly, so wash the mask and palette knife as soon as possible. I usually always have some extra paste so I apply it to extra card to use at a later date so as not to waste it. If it’s not coloured it can be returned to the tub.

I attached this card and a piece of the So Saffron Designer Paper from the Subtles 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#153072) to Crushed Curry card (#131288). I wrapped the Gold 3/8” Metallic-Edge Ribbon (#144146) around the card front before attaching the card to the Very Vanilla base card.

The top flower was stamped with So Saffron ink (#147109) for the base image followed by Crushed Curry ink (#147087) for smaller images of the flower. The flower below the sentiment was stamped with Crushed Curry ink. Both flowers were cut with the co-ordinating dies from the Floral Gallery Dies (#154316). The leaves cut from the Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) were cut with a Curvy Die (#154319). These were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

The sentiment is from the Many Messages stamp set and cut with a Hippo & Friends Die (#153585). The Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) was also cut with one of these dies. The sentiment and flowers were all attached using Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). A Gold Glitter Enamel Dot (#152155) was attached to the lower corner of the card.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
