With You In Mind

Hi again friends,

I always love the look of black & white, so here is one suitable for a male.

“Happy Birthday” is from With You In Mind stamp set (#164747). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I used Black powder from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165679) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The sentiment and Basic Black card (#121688) were cut with the Textured Notes dies (#165555).

The Basic White card front (#166781) was dry embossed with the Plaster Painting (#164656) and matted with Basic Black card. This was attached to the Basic White base card. The Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper (#165545) was attached to the card front.

I taped the sentiment to the black card then this was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Mixed Florals

Hi again everyone,

These flowers are from the Mixed Florals stamp set (#164639).

I stamped the floral image with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228).

I then cut the image with a die from the Mixed Florals Dies (#164641).

The arches were cut with the Everyday Arches dies (#164629) using Basic White card & Flirty Flamingo card (#141421). These were attached to the Flirty Flamingo card front which was dry embossed with the Plaster Painting Embossing Folder (#164656). The base card is also Basic White.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set (#164608) and cut with a Beautiful Butterflies die which is part of the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder (#164614).

Pastel Ombre Glimmer Specialty Paper

Hello friends,

The Pastel Ombre Glimmer 12”x12” Specialty Paper (#164851) has been used for the flowers & leaves on today’s card. I love the ombre effect on the colours on each sheet.

The flowers were cut & embossed using the Happy Hibiscus Hybrid Embossing Folder (#164879). These hybrid folders includes the embossing folder as well as the dies. In this set, one die can be located into the embossing folder to cut & emboss 3 flowers at one time. The leaves were cut with other dies in the same set.

I dry embossed the Basic White card front (#159228) with the Plaster Painting Embossing Folder (#164656), then matted it with Gorgeous Grape card (#147011). This was attached to the Basic White base card.

“Best Wishes” from Layering Leaves stamp set (#161277) was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099) and punched with the To The Point Label Punch (#164568).

The sentiment and flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and the leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins (#164970) from Sale-a-bration were attached to finish the card.

Mediterranean Blooms

Hi everyone,

A quick & easy card using the Mediterranean Blooms 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#163284) and the co-ordinating Citrus Blooms dies (#163294).

I cut the image from the DSP with the die. I cut the leaves from Garden Green card (#108605) with dies from the same set.

I used the Take A Bow die (#164102) to cut the Basic White card, then dry embossed these 3 pieces with the Plaster Painting Embossing Folder (#164656) these were taped to the Basic White card front and matted with Garden Green card. The base card is also Basic White.

The oranges die cut was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The die cut leaves were attached using Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

I added some glimmer to the oranges with Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) and added the Clear Dots from the Pecan Pie & Clear Ribboned Adhesive-Backed Dots (#164204).

I decided not to add a sentiment at this time, so no stamping on this card.
