Enchanted Butterfly stamp set

 Welcome friends,

I hope you all had a happy & relaxing Easter as I did. I am using more of the retiring products and these butterflies are from the Enchanted Butterfly stamp set (#161279) which is retiring. This is a reversible stamp set which means you can use both sides of the stamp which allows you to do 2 step stamping. However I have just used the outline side of the stamp.

I stamped the butterfly with Bubble Bath ink (#161664), Berry Burst ink (#147143) and Blackberry Bliss ink (#147092). These were then cut with a Perennial Postage die (#162607).

The Basic White card front (#159228) was dry embossed with the Quatrefoil Tile Embossing folder (#158655) and matted with Berry Burst card (#144249).

I coloured the Bubble Bath from the Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack (#161635) with Berry Burst ink using a Sponge Dauber (#133773). This was then wrapped around the card front.

“Happy Birthday” from So Sincere stamp set (#162283) was stamped with Berry Burst ink and cut with a Sending die (#159271). The sentiment & butterflies were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the butterflies. When using this on some of the darker inks just be aware that this may cause “bleeding” of the ink (which isn’t always a bad thing).

The embellishments are from the Festive Pearls (#159963) and I added 3 to each of the butterflies.

The retiring products are the Enchanted Butterfly stamp set, the Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder, the Sheer Ribbon Combo pack, the Festive Pearls and the Sending dies.

Irresistible Blooms

Hi my friends,

The Irresistible Blooms stamp set (#161140) and Irresistible Blooms dies (#161149) have been used for the flowers on todays card.

The Designer Series Paper is Hello, Irresistible 6”x6” DSP (#161139) and this co-ordinates with the stamp set & dies. This was attached to the Daffodil Delight card base (#121680). “Sending” is cut with dies from the Sending dies (#159271) using Daffodil Delight card & Basic White card (#159228). I used Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the white card, making it easy to adhere it to the Daffodil Delight card. This was then attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The circles were cut with Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183). “Love & Big Hugs” from the Sending stamp set (#158701) was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). The flowers from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set were stamped with Daffodil Delight ink and cut with the Irresistible Blooms dies. I added glimmer to the flowers with the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897).

I taped the circles and small flower to the card and the larger flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves were cut from Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) backed with Adhesive sheet and attached to the card. The cute dragonfly is a sneak peek from the up coming Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies & Birds (#162743) and will be available Online in November.

Sending Smiles Bundle

Hi friends,

The background on this card has been achieved using ink refills and Water Painters (#151298). This is a great way to have a background with the colours you want.

The Ink Refills used are Orchid Oasis (#159215), Mango Melody (#147162), Melon Mambo (#115662) & Flirty Flamingo (#141402). I used a Water Painter and randomly added the colours to the Shimmery White card (#121717). After colouring the card I sprayed it with extra water which allows the colours to blend. Put this aside to dry or dry with the Heat Tool (#129056).

I then stamped the flowers from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set (#154411) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). This was matted with Orchid Oasis card (#159265) and attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

“Birthday Wishes” from the Sending Smiles stamp set (#158701) was stamped with Orchid Oasis ink (#159214). The dies to cut the sentiment and “sending” are from the Sending Dies (#159271). “Sending” was cut from Orchid Oasis card which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). This was attached to the Gold Foil (#132622). Both sentiments were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Elegant Faceted Gems (#152464) were added to the card.
