Cottage Rose Bundle

Hello friends,

I am certainly no gardener but I do love flowers which seem to dominate many of my cards. This flower on todays card is from the Cottage Rose stamp set (#159040).




I stamped the flower with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Very Vanilla card (#106550). This image was coloured with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883), Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Blends (#154878) and Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends (#155519). The co-ordinating die from the Cottage Flowers Dies (#159047) was used to cut the image.

“Best Wishes” is from the same stamp set and stamped with Bermuda Bay ink (#147096). A Pretty Pillowbox Die (#156321) was used to cut the sentiment.

I cut the 3 border pieces using the Desert Details Dies (#160531) from the Green Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428). The Very Vanilla card front was dry embossed with one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders (#161598). There are 3 different embossing folders in this set. The borders were taped to the card front, then this card was then matted with the green Fine Shimmer Paper and attached to the Very Vanilla base card.

The floral image and sentiment were both attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) gives the shimmer to the flower & leaves.  The embellishments (sorry I can’t remember where they are from but possibly from a kit) were attached to the card to add an extra sparkle.

Peace To You

Hi everyone,

Here’s my first Christmas card for the year, using the beautiful Peace To You stamp set (#159776).





I stamped both the sentiment and image with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555), then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I used a die from the Pretty Pillowbox dies (#156321) for the sentiment and Mary, Joseph & Jesus was cut with a Scalloped Contours die (#155560).

The Metallic & Shimmer 6”x6” Specialty Paper (#159909) was matted with the Gold Foil (#132622), then attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the die cut pieces to the card. I added an Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewel (#158130) to the centre of the star.
