Flower Shop Birthday

Hello all,

Flower Shop (#130942) is one of my favourite stamp sets and having the matching punch makes it super easy.

Cardstock I have used is Wisteria Wonder (#124389), Whisper White (#106549) and Elegant Eggplant (#108614). Elegant Eggplant (#126969) is also the ink used. I have used 2 embossing folders - Chevron (#127749) and Pretty Print (#132175). The punches used are the Scallop Edge Border (#119882) and Pansy (#130698). Happy Birthday is from the Bring on the Cake set (#121958) and the Framelit to cut this is Chalk Talk (#129983). The ribbon is Whisper White 1/4" Stitched Grosgrain. Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the flowers to the card.

Thought for the day-

Lots to do, so till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

Secret Garden Sympathy card

Hi

I love the elegance of this White and silver card (nicer in reality than the photo shows).

I have used Whisper White (#106549) and Brush Silver Card (#124918) as well as White Vellum (#106584) for the leaves. The flowers from Secret Garden stamp set (#129144) were heat embossed with Versamark (#102283) and Silver embossing powder (#109131), and cut using the matching Secret Garden Framelits (#129372). The leaves were stamped using the Silver Metallic Encore ink pad (#132142) onto the vellum. The sentiment is from the Petite Pairs stamp set (#122497) and also done using silver embossing powder. Rhinestone Basic Pearls (#119246) were added to the centre of the flowers.

Thought for the day-

Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

Baby Prints

Hello,

I make and donate cards to our local church, so this is one of the baby boy cards I made today.

Using Whisper White (#106549) and Tempting Turquoise card (#108598), I stamped using Tempting Turquoise ink (#126952). The embossing folder used is Alphabet Press (#130916). I stamped the feet from the Baby Prints stamp set (#125472) and used the Chalk Talk Framelits (#129983) to make the tag. The "welcome baby" is from the Petite Pairs stamp set (#122497) and " boy" is out of the Baby Prints set. The sentiment was then cut using the Bitty Banners Framelits (#129267). The ribbon for the bow is Whisper White Stitched Grosgrain (#126877) and attached using Glue dots (#103683). The tag and sentiment are attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430)

Thought for the day -

I have lots more cards to make,
so till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

Hearts a Flutter with Hearts Framelits

Hi and welcome,

Hearts a Flutter stamp set (#129252) with Hearts a Flutter Framelits (#130159) and Hearts Collection Framelits (#125599) were used for this card.

To cut the base card with the Framelits, fold the card in half and place the Framelit on the card as shown below. This allows the card to have a piece at the top that isn't cut through.

The Cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and Real Red (#106578). The embossing folders used are Pretty Print (132175) and Fancy Fan (#127751).
Love You is from the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set (#126257) and I used the coordinating Bitty Banners Framelits. Real Red ink (#126949) was used to stamp all the images.

This was also a great opportunity to make the correct size envelope using the Envelope Punch Board.

It is so easy to make any size envelope. I just stamped some hearts to decorate the envelope. It's nice to really personalize the envelope and match it with the card.

Feel better male card

Hello again,

I have had a few very busy days, but I'm back again. I was asked for a male get well card so this is a very easy one.

The Cardstock used is Midnight Muse (#127546), Crumb Cake (#121685), Cherry Cobbler (#121681), Very Vanilla (#106550) and Basic Black (#121688). I used the Woodgrain embossing folder (#127821) on the crumb cake card and the Honeycomb folder (#1129378) on the Cherry Cobbler card. The Circles collection Framelits (#130911) were used and the punch is the Owl Builder (#118074). I also used the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder (#117335) for the front of the owl. Feel Better is from the Sassy Salutations stamp set (#126707). The ribbon is Midnight Muse Stitched Satin (#126847). The owl was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

Thought for the day-

Till next time
😊Happy Stamping😊

Christmas Tags

Hello,

This will be very quick today. I have been making some Gift tags for Christmas. Here are some of them.

In have used various Framelits and stamp sets (sorry - some retired), to make some very simple tags. I have stamped "to" and "from" on the back. I have also heat embossed most of the images.

Thought for the day-

Must go,
Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊
Lesley.

Secret Garden stamp set and Framelits

Hello,

It's great to have Framelits and punches that coordinate with the stamp sets.
The flowers for this card are from the Secret Garden Stamp set (#129144).

The card stock is Bermuda Bay (#131286), Crushed Curry (#131288) and Whisper White (#106549). I embossed on part of the white card with the Honeycomb folder (#129378. The Flowers were heat embossed with Clear embossing powder (#109130). With the new ink pads, because they stay wet for a bit longer, you can just stamp the image and quickly add the embossing powder, then heat set. The inks used are Bermuda Bay (#131171), Crushed Curry (#131173) and Soft Suede (#126978). Gorgeous Grunge (#130517) and Label Love (#130622) are the other stamp sets used. The punch for the sentiment is the Artisan Label (#130920), and the Secret Garden Framelits (#129372) cut the flowers and leaves. For a bit of sparkle I added Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#119246) and Dazzling Details (#124117) to the flower centres.
