Sunflower embossing folder

 Hi everyone,

I love the look of an almost all white card with a pop of colour like today’s card.

The Basic White card front (#166781) was dry embossed with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder (#166145), then attached to the Basic White base card.

The 2 scalloped circles were cut with the Scalloped Blooms dies (#167646). I stamped the floral image from the Fern & Flora stamp set (#167739) onto the smaller circle using the Basic Black Hybrid Stampin’ Pad (#166648). This was coloured with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#154883) and Granny Apple Green (#154885). The larger circle was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The sentiment is from the All Aflutter stamp set (#167564) and stamped with Crushed Curry ink (#147087). I chose to only use part of the sentiment so I masked “today” so it wasn't inked, then removed the mask before stamping. The sentiment was then punched with the Three Banner punch (#167050) and attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

June Product Of The Month

 Hello & welcome again,

Another very cute card using the Wild Bunch stamp set (#167987) which is the June Product Of The Month.

I stamped the 3 cute little cows with Basic Black Hybrid Stampin’ Pad (#166648) onto Basic White card (#166781). These were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Golden Glow (#167682), Cloud Cover (#165287), Pecan Pie (#161674), Crumb Cake (#154882), Bubble Bath (#161675) and 500 & 600 from the Medium combo pack (#159462). These were then fussy cut.

The grass from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set (#167922) was stamped with Peaceful Pine ink (#167679) and cut with the Relaxing Waterside dies (#167927).

The card front from the Country Woods Designer Series Paper (#163393) was matted with Basic Black card (#121688) then attached to the Basic White base card.

“Sending Love” from the Wild Bunch stamp set and stamped with Peaceful Pine ink. The Three Banners punch (#167050) was used to punch the sentiment.

The grass was attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The cows and sentiment were all attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was used on parts of the cows to add some glimmer.

Product Of The Month

 Hello again,

Each month there is a new Product Of The Month which in Australia you can get for $9 with a $125 order. February’s product of the month is the beautiful Painted Illusions 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#167977), which I have used on the background on this card.

The strips of DSP were attached to the Pretty Peacock card (#150886), then this was attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

I stamped the vases from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set (#165161) with VersaMark (#102283) onto Pretty Peacock card and Lost Lagoon card (#133686). I added the white powder from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165679) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). An Inspiring Imperfections die (#165166) was used to cut the vases.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Simply Said stamp set (#163756). I stamped the words separately by covering the other word with a post it note when inking the stamp, so I could punch each word separately using the Three Banner Punch (#167050). Pretty Peacock ink (#150083) was used to stamp the sentiment.

The vase on the right was taped to the card and I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the other vase & sentiment. The embellishments are from the Low Profile Sparkle Dots (#166157).

Softest Spring Mix & Match Puffy Stickers

 Hello friends,

I’m highlighting some more products from the upcoming mini catalogue including the gorgeous Soft Spring Mix & Match Puffy Stickers (#166986).

There is a range of stickers including this cute little bird as well as flowers leaves & butterflies.

I embossed the oval (it’s actually a part oval) from the Addressed To You stamp set (#167010), using VersaMark (#102283) with Silver from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This Basic White card (#166781) was cut with a die from Branching Out (#165775), then I dry embossed it with the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder (#167097). I think this is currently my favourite embossing folder. The Daffodil Delight card (#121680) was also cut with a Branching Out die. These were taped together then attached to the Basic White base card.

I lightly added Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) to the card front using a Blending Brush (#153611), then attached the bird sticker on top.

“Happy Birthday” is also from the Addressed To You stamp set and stamped with Crushed Curry ink (#147087). I used the Three Banner Punch (#167050) to cut the sentiment. These were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Low Profile Sparkle Dots (#166157) were added to the card.

Branching Out dies

 Hello again,

Before I put everything away from yesterday’s card I thought I would make another one with a variation.

The flower, leaves and gold corner pieces are from the Beautifully Adorned Ephemera Pack (#166980). The flower has an outline in gold so I coloured the back with Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blends (#161675).

The card front is from the Whispers Of Texture Specialty Paper (#167106) and this was matted with Bubble Bath card (#161727), then attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

I cut the “frame” with 2 of the Branching Out dies (#165775), then dry embossed it with the Joined Together 3D Embossing Folder (#165170). This was attached to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Congratulations” is from the Loveliest Tree stamp set (#163714) and stamped with VersaMark (#102283), then I added the Gold powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing powders (#165678). The Heat Tool (#129056) was used to set the powder. This was punched with the Three Banner punch (#167050).

The flower was attached with a Stampin’ Dimensional, and Mini Glue Dots (#103683) were used for the leaves & gold corners. The sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals and a Mini Glue Dot. The Flower Accents (#165171) were added to finish the card.

Beautifully Adorned Ephemera Pack

 Hi again,

Another sneak peek today, this time using the Beautifully Adorned Ephemera Pack (#166980) from the upcoming mini catalogue available from 6th January. There are 6 vellum sheets, 2 each of 3 designs of pre-cut images with gold. Gold & white always looks so elegant.

For the background I used the Whispers Of Texture Specialty Paper (#167106) and added subtle colour using a Blending Brush (#153611) with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) to the middle of the card.

I dry embossed a piece of Basic White card (#166781) with the Joined Together 3D Embossing Folder (#165170), then punched this several times with the Three Banner Punch (#167050). These were taped to the card front. I matted this with Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) and attached it to the Basic White base card.

“Celebrate” is from the Unbounded Love stamp set (#163378) and I stamped this with VersaMark (#102283) and added the Gold Powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing powders (#165678). The Heat Tool (#129056) was used to set the powder. This was also punched with the Three Banner punch.

The flower was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and the leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The Flower Accents (#165171) were added to the card.

Traditions Of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper

 Hi again,

Another Christmas card using the Traditions Of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper (#165853). This floral image is part of the DSP and can be cut with the co-ordinating Christmas Greenery dies (#165872).

The Gold Foil (#132622) behind the floral image was cut with a die from the Sentimental Framing dies (#165476).

The Regal Distressed Patterns Specialty Designer Series Paper (#164037) was matted with Gold Foil then attached to the Basic White base card (#166781). The die cut gold foil was attached to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The sentiment is from the Peace On Earth stamp set (#165918). These words are on one stamp, so I masked  the words so I only inked & stamped each word separately and punched the words with the Three Banner Punch (#167050). These were taped to the card.

Friendly Foliage Bundle

 Hello fellow crafters,

I love the simplicity of the foliage in the Friendly Foliage stamp set (#167021), then when cut with the dies takes it to the next level. There are 2 dies to cut the foliage. You can just cut the outline image, or you can use a second die to cut the pieces around the leaves inside the frame, which is what I have done on this image.

I stamped the image and sentiment with VersaMark (#102283) and added the Copper powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678), then set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The foliage was then cut with the Friendly Foliage dies (#167023) and the sentiment was punched with the Three Banner Punch (#167050).

I cut the Brushed With Beauty Designer Series Paper (#167082) and the Copper from the Textured Metallic Specialty Paper (#163772) with the Branching Out dies (#165775). I also matted another piece of DSP with the Copper Paper and attached it to the Basic White base card (#166781).

I used Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) to attach the foliage and the sentiment to the card. The Low Profile Dots (#164658) were added to the card.

Christmas Greenery

 Hello friends,

The Christmas Greenery Bundle (#165865) is probably my favourite Christmas sets, but I think this floral image is suitable for other occasions, making it extra versatile.

I stamped the image from the Traditional Labels stamp set (#165854) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#166781). This was coloured with Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends (#161673), Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends (#154894). A Traditional Labels die (#165864) was used to cut this.

The 2 label dies from the Peace On Earth dies (#165924) were used to cut the Vellum Specialty Paper (#167099) and the Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper (#165929). I dry embossed the Vellum with the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder (#167097). This was attached to the glimmer paper with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

The DSP is from the retired Otterly Adorable Designer Series Paper. I also dry embossed this with the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder. I double matted this with Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and Secret Sea card (#165296) and attached it to the Basic White base card.

“Celebrate” from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set (#165198) was stamped with Secret Sea ink (#165285) and this was punched with the Banner Punch (#167050).

I taped the labels to the card front and I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the flowers and sentiment. Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was added to the floral image and the embellishments are the retired Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins.

The Vellum Specialty paper, Three Banner Punch and Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder will be available from the Online Exclusives from November along with a whole lot more new products.
