Vintage Leaves

Welcome again,

I often say that I love the way Stampin' Up! co-ordinate stamp sets and other products which make it so easy when crafting. These co-ordinating Vintage Leaves and Framelits are available in a bundle which also means you save 15% when buying them together.

I embossed the Very Vanilla base card (#106550) with the Elegant Dots folder (#138287) and I cut the ovals with the Ovals Collection Framelits (#129381). The leaves from the Vintage Leaves stamp set (#p138802) were all stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Embossing Powder (#109129), then cut with the Leaflets Framelits (#138283). The cardstock for the leaves is Cherry Cobbler (#121681), Crumb Cake (#121685), Cajun Craze (#121683) and Old Olive (#106576). Old Olive is also used for the larger oval. Happy Birthday is from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments (#c120024, #w130042), stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink (#126966), then punched with the Word Window punch (#119857). Gold Cording Trim (#139618) was used to make the bow which was attached to the sentiment with a Mini Glue Dot (#103683). The leaves were layered using Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

I'm looking forward to a great 2016 and sharing what I love to do - crafting.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Vintage Leaves

Hi,

The Vintage Leaves stamp set (#p138802) co-ordinates with the Leaflets Framelits (#138283) and have been used for today's card.

The Very Vanilla base card was embossed with the Brick Wall embossing folder (#138288). The other Cardstock is Cherry Cobbler (#121681 and Corrugated Paper (#138317). The corrugated paper was cut with the Deco Labels Collection Framelits (#130102). The Very Vanilla leaf was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Embossing Powder (#109129). Celebrate from Endless Birthday Wishes (#p140273) was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink (#126966) and punched with the Washi Label punch (#138296). This and the leaves were attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The Gold 1/8" Ribbon (#134583) was attached to the leaves with a Mini Glue Dot (#103683).

Till next time,

Beautiful Bunch

Hello,

Here's a pretty card using the flower from the Beautiful Bunch stamp set (#c134282, #w134279).

The Cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and the Color Me Irresisible Specialty Designer Paper (#138439) was cut with the Deco Label Collection Framelits (#130102). The flower was stamped with Watermelon Wonder ink (#138323) and the leaves with Mossy Meadow (#133645) and Pear Pizzaz (#131180). The leaves are from the Vintage Leaves stamp set (#p138802) and these were cut with the Leaflets Framelits (#138283). The flowers were punched with the Fun Flower punch (#133785) and I used a Stampin' Dimensional (#104430) between the 2 layers of the flower. I added one of the gorgeous Something Borrowed embellishments to the flower (Whoops! I just realised this is retired). I actually meant to use the Winter Wonderland embellishments (#139621). The sentiment is from the Birthday Blossoms stamp set (#c139471, #w139167) and the broken line at the bottom of the card is from Butterfly Basics stamp set (#c138816, #w138813, #p137154).

Vintage Leaves

Hello,

I have used the masking technique when stamping the leaves from the Vintage Leaves stamp set (#p138802).

The leaves were stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#126975) and then I added some glitter to the leaves using Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter (#133751). To get this glitter stick to the card I used the 2-way glue pen (#100425). Happy Birthday is from the Sassy Salutations stamp set (#c126707, #w132070) and I heat embossed this with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Embossing powder (#109129). I used the 5/8" Gold Satin Ribbon (#134547).   I cut around the leaves, then attached this card to the base card - both are Whisper White (#106549). I was really pleased with the finished card - another simple but nice card.

Today's tip: To do the masking technique, stamp the image on the card. Then stamp again on a piece of note paper ( post it notes work well) and cut this image just inside the lines. This becomes your mask. This mask is placed over the stamped image on the card. Then stamp the next image on the card and this will give the layered look.

Have a great weekend,

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Vintage Leaves

Hello,

This is the next card again using just Whisper White card (#106549) and stamping.

The leaves are from the Vintage Leaves stamp set (#p138802). I used the masking technique as well as the rock and roll method. For the rock and roll method, ink your stamp with the lighter ink, then roll the outside of the stamp in the next ink. I used a 3rd ink, so I actually inked one side of the stamp with the 2nd ink then the other side with the 3rd ink. (Hope this isn't too confusing). The sentiment is from the Happy Birthday Everyone stamp set (#c139958, #w139171) and the dragonfly is from Awesomely Artistic set (#c139950, #w138694). The inks used for the leaves are So Saffron (#126957), Wild Wasabi (#126959) and Crumb Cake (#126975). The dragon fly was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Embossing Powder (#109129) and heat embossed. The dragon fly was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

That's all today.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

World Of Dreams

Hello,

About 10 days ago I mentioned about the birds that had hatched just outside the kitchen window. I can't believe how quickly they have grown and yesterday was their first day out of the nest and the parents are now very protective as they venture out. These birds inspired me to make this card with the World of Dreams stamp set (#c134186, #w134183).

I used Soft Suede (#119982), Very Vanilla (#106550) and Mint Macaron card (#138326). The birds and woodgrain were stamped with Sahara Sand ink (#126976). The edges were sponged with Soft Suede ink (#126978). The woodgrain is the Hardwood background stamp (#c133035, #w133032). The leaves from Vintage Leaves (#p138802) were stamped with Mint Macaron (#138326) on Mint Macaron card (#138344). The edges of the leaves were also sponged with Sahara Sand ink after being cut with the Leaflets Framelits (#138283). The piece of Soft Suede card that was cut from the front of the card was used as the horizontal piece. Happy Birthday is from the Circle of Spring stamp set (#p138964).

Have a great week.

Till next time, 

Happy stamping!

Lesley.
