Mother Of Pearl Specialty Paper

Hi crafty friends,

I wanted to stamp an image on the gorgeous Mother Of Pearl Specialty Paper (#157666) so I used the StazOn Jet Black ink (#101406). This is a permanent ink for non porous surfaces so works perfectly on this paper.

I used the birds from Free As A Bird stamp set (#149468) and cut it with a die from the Hippo & Friends Dies (#153585). I then used the same die to cut a piece of Pacific Point card (#116202). I cut this in half horizontally and attached it the the back of the birds. 

Happy Birthday from the Art Gallery stamp set (#158201) was stamped with Pacific Point ink (#147098). I cut the sentiment and the Pacific Point card under the sentiment with a die from the Tasteful Labels Dies (#152886).

I dry embossed the Silver Foil from the Blue Foils Specialty Paper (#159983) with the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder (#152725) and matted this with the Pacific Point card. I coloured the White Glittered Organdy Ribbon (#156408) using a Blending Brush (#153611) and Pacific Point ink. This was wrapped around the card front before it was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). The embellishments are the Elegant Faceted Gems (#152464).

The retiring products on this card are the Free As A Bird stamp set, Ornate Floral Embossing Folder, Tasteful Labels Dies and the Hippo & Friends Dies.

Brilliant Wings

Hi my friends,

For a butterfly lover, I haven’t made a card with a butterfly for a while, however you could replace the butterfly with a variety of images.

I used the Shimmery White Finish Embossing Paste (#154645) with one of the Plenty Of Patterns Decorative Masks (#155553) to create the background on the larger piece of Basic White card (#159228). The smaller Basic White card was dry embossed with the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder (#152725). Both these white cards were matted with Blackberry Bliss card (#133682). The smaller matted card was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I wrapped the Metallic Mesh Ribbon (#153550) around the card front then attached it to the Basic White base card. The butterflies were cut with the Brilliant Wings dies (#155523) from Blackberry Bliss card and Silver Foil Specialty (#156457). The Silver butterfly was attached to the base butterfly with Mini Glue Dots (#103683), then taped to the card.

Happy Birthday is from the Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) and stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink (#147092). I cut this with the die from the Bloom Dies (#155989). The sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stay safe & keep crafting!!

Free As A BIrd

Hello & welcome,

These cute little birds are from The Free As A Bird stamp set (#149468) and I have coloured the image with Stampin’ Blends.

I stamped the birds with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). The Stampin’ Blends used to colour are Pale Papaya (#155519), Pool Party (#154894), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Fresh Freesia (#155518), Crumb Cake (#154882), Granny Apple Green (#154885), Poppy Parade (#154958) and Pumpkin Pie (#154897). This was then cut with a Tailor Made Tags Die (#155563).

I embossed the Basic White card front with the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder (#152725) and attached a triangle of the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper (#155426) to the card. I cut a piece of Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) with a die from the Stitched Triangles (#152710) and attached this to the corner of the “tag”.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Art Gallery stamp set (#158201) and stamped with VersaMark (#102283). This was heat embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). A Stitched Rectangles die (#151820) was used to cut the sentiment. I threaded the Gold Simply Elegant Trim (#155766) through the tag and attached this and the sentiment to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The diamond shaped embellishments are from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials (#155567) and I coloured these with the Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends before attaching them to the card.

Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper

Welcome,

How often do have bits and pieces of Designer paper left from a project. Well, here is an easy card using some “scraps” from the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper (#154558).

The base card and card front are Basic White (#159228). I dry embossed the cardfront with the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder (#152725). The DSP was matted with Mossy Meadow card (#133683) and attached to the card front.

The dragonfly and the small dragonflies on the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set (#154411) were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). The dragonfly was punched with the Dragonflies Punch (#154240). I coloured the wings with Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends (#154884) and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends (#154893) and added glitter with the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897).

The sentiment from Many Mates stamp set (#152633) was stamped with Mossy Meadow ink (#147111). The circles were cut with the Layering Circles Dies (#151770). Stampin’ Dimensionals were used to attach the dragonfly and sentiment to the card.

I am sure you will find plenty of DSP scraps to make a beautiful card.

Have a great day.
