Pretty Pop-Ups Dies

Hi my friends,

Have you seen the gorgeous Pretty Pop-Ups Dies (#159179) in the Annual catalogue. There are 3 larger dies with “Pop-Ups” (circle, rectangle & oval) and 7 individual dies. They have partial cut outs which allows you to pop up certain pieces for a great effect.

I cut the rectangles with the Stitched Rectangles Dies (#151820) from Balmy Blue card (#147007), So Saffron card (#108611) and Soft Sea Foam card (#106550).  I then used the Pretty Pop-Ups die on each coloured card.

I stamped “Thinking Of You” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) with Balmy Blue ink (#147105). This was also cut with a Stitched Rectangles die. I used 2 of the individual dies for the pop-ups on this.

I dry embossed the Very Vanilla card front (106550) with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (#156505) and attached each of the rectangles with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) were added around the sentiment. The base card is also Very Vanilla.

Nature’s Prints Bundle

Hello crafty friends,

I love the subtle colours used on this card using the Nature’s Prints Bundle (#158801).

The leaves from the Nature’s Prints stamp set (#158793) were stamped with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102), Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104) and Old Olive ink (#147090). I used the dies from the Natural Prints Dies (#158800) to cut the stamped leaves as well as the die cut leaves using the Mother Of Pearl Specialty Paper (#157666). The Mother Of Pearl was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting.

The card stock used is Basic White (#159228) and Soft Sea Foam card (#147012). I cut the smaller rectangle of Basic White card & the Soft Sea Foam card with the Deckled Rectangles dies (#159173). I used the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (#156505) to dry emboss the card front and the Fern 3D Embossing Folder (#158804) for the smaller piece of embossed card.

The sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (#151595) was stamped with Pear Pizzaz ink then cut with a Beautiful Shapes Die (#158046).  The beautiful Sprig Trinket (#159188) was attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). I used Stampin Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the sentiment & larger stamped leaf. The embellishments are Elegant Faceted Gems (#152464).

Designer Tags Dies

Hello again friends,

I wanted to make a super easy card today so I paired up the Designer Tags Dies (#159165) with the Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes (#159270).

The card base is Starry Sky. This card & envelope set have bases in each of the new 2022-2024 In Colors with different designs for each Color. The tag & butterfly are cut with dies from the Designer Tags Dies using Starry Sky card (#159264) and Copper Foil (#142020).

“Just A Note” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) and stamped with Starry Sky ink (#159212). This was cut with a All That die (#159078). I dry embossed the Basic White card (#159228) using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (#156505), then this was attached to the Copper Foil.

I threaded the Starry Sky Metallic Woven Ribbon (#159198) through the label, then attached the label to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The butterfly was attached with a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional (#144108), then I attached the Starry Sky 2022-2024 In Color Matt Decorative Dots (#159186) to the butterfly.

Below are the card bases and matching envelopes in the Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes.

Gorgeous Leaves

Hello friends,

I don't very often make “vintage style” cards so tried it on this card. I thought the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (#156505) would be ideal for the background.

After dry embossing the Very Vanilla card front (#106550), I wiped the Crumb Cake ink pad (#147116) lightly over the embossed card, highlighting the raised embossed areas. Then using a Blending Brush (#153611) and Soft Suede ink (#147115), I added extra colour around the edges of the card front. I also tore some areas for a more vintage look. I matted the card front with So Saffron card (#108611).

The leaves are from the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set (#153365). I inked one leaf with So Saffron ink (#147109), then added Soft Suede ink (#147115) around the edges using a Sponge Dauber (#133773) before stamping. The other 2 stamped leaves were inked with Old Olive ink (#147090) and I added the Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083) to the tips with a dauber, then stamped.

I wrapped the Gold Fine Art Ribbon (#154561) around the card front before adding the leaves to the card.

I adhered the Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to the back of the Soft Suede card (#119982), Old Olive card (#106576) and So Saffron card before cutting these and the stamped leaves with the Intricate Leaves Dies  (#153566). 

The sentiment is from the retired Many Mates stamp set and stamped with Soft Suede ink, then cut with a Tasteful Labels Die (#152886). The sentiment and the stamped leaves were all attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots (#156506) were added to the card. The card base is Soft Suede. I added sparkle to all the leaves using the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897).

Hello friends,

The Whimsical Trees Bundle (#156810) consists of the Whimsical Trees stamp set (#156330) and the Christmas Trees dies (#156339) and have been used for the trees on this card.

The larger tree was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The tree in the background was stamped with Just Jade ink (#153115) and the small tree was stamped with Mint Macaron ink (#147106). The trees were cut with the Christmas Tree Dies.

Sale-a-bration Delicate Dahlias

Hi again,

I hope you have seen the beautiful Delicate Dahlias stamp set (#156601) which is a free product from Sale-a-bration (with a $180 order). This is a 2 step stamping set, however I used Stampin’ Blends to colour this dahlia.

I stamped the outline image with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed this with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). I then coloured the flower with Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends (#154884) and Light Cherry Cobbler (#154880) - for the centre. The flower was then fussy cut.

The base card is Basic White (#159228). The Flirty Flamingo card (#141421) was dry embossed with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (#156505). The next layer is Pattern Party 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#155426). The Basic White card on top was cut with a Stitched Rectangles Die (#151820). The sentiment from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set was also Gold heat embossed.

I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the dahlia and attached it to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The embellishment in the corner is an Elegant Faceted Gem (#152464).

Happy Holly-Days

Hello,

I love this bird from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set (#156342), and even though it is a Christmas set, I have used the bird for an any occasion card.

I stamped the bird with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099), then fussy cut it. The Highland Heather card front (#147010) was dry embossed with the Timeworn Type 3D embossing Folder (#156505) and attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). The designer paper is from the Hand-Penned Memories & More Card Pack (#155505). I attached the Square Vellum Doilie (#152484) to the card. I taped an area which would be a covered with the printed card, the bird and sentiment, so it’s not visible through the vellum. 

The sentiment is from the Very Versailles stamp set (#149275), stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink and cut with an Ornate Frames Die (#150664). The sentiment and bird were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I added some Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to the bird. Just a reminder that some inks can bleed when using the Wink Of Stella. I used it on the bird where there was some shading and it did bleed slightly but that’s what I wanted to achieve.
