Best Birds with Birds & Blooms Thinlits

Hello,

I couldn't find the right DSP to suit the photos on these scrapbook pages, so I stamped my own.

 

 

 

I matted the photos with Pacific Point card (#116202) and Wild Wasabi (#111850) as these colours were a perfect match to the colours in the photos. 12"x12" Very Vanilla card from the Neutrals Collection (#131187) was used for the background. I stamped around the edges with an image from the Timeless Textures stamp set (#c140517, #w140514) with Wild Wasbi ink (#126959) using the Stamping Off method. I stamped the 2 birds with Pacific Point ink (#126951) and all the birds were cut with the Birds & Blooms Thinlits. I used So Saffron card (#108611) for the yellow birds. The branches were stamped with Wild Wasabi ink and this stamp is also in the Best Birds stamp set and the Thinlit is from the Birds & Blooms Thinlits. Then I stamped with an image from the Best Birds stamp set (#p141525) using Crumb Cake ink (#126975) to create a subtle background behind the birds. The swirl under the title is cut with the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits (#141497) from Crumb Cake card (#121685). The title was cut with an electronic cutter using Wild Wasbi and Pacific Point card.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Flourish Thinlits

Hi and Welcome,

Here's a very simple but elegant card using the Flourish Thinlits (#141478). Just change the sentiment for a card for any special occasion.

 

The Whisper White base card was embossed with the Elegant Dots folder (#138287). I stamped the sentiment from the Rose Wonder stamp set (#p140697) with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with Silver Embossing Powder (#109131). This white card was taped to a piece of Night Of Navy card (#106577) showing only a small amount of colour. The flourish was cut from the Silver Foil Sheet (#132178) and glued to the card with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309).

When using the more intricate Thinlits you will need to use the Precision Base Plate (#139684) in the Big Shot (#143263). This steel plate cuts the more detailed Thinlits much easier. Another product which is very useful is the Die Brush (#140603), which also includes a foam pad. Gently roll the brush over the cut image to remove the small cut pieces from the dies. It's important not to press hard with this brush.

That's all today.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Vintage Leaves

Hello,

These leaves from the Vintage Leaves stamp set (#p138802) have co-ordinating Framelits which are the Leaflets Framelits Dies (#138283).

 

The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550) and the other cardstock is Cajun Craze (#121683) and Crushed Curry (#131288). The leaves were stamped with Crushed Curry ink (#131173), Cajun Craze (#126965) and Always Artichoke (#126972). Happy Birthday from the Butterfly Basics stamp set (#c138816, #w138813, #p137154) was also stamped with Always Artichoke ink. I embossed the 2 smaller pieces of Very vanilla card with the Elegant Dots folder (#138287). I finished the card by adding some Copper Metallic Thread (#141696) and a small White Perfect Accent (#138416).

That's all for another today.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Pop Of Pink Specialty DSP

Hi Ladies,

The colours in the Pop Of Pink Specialty Designer Series Paper (#141648) are Melon Mambo, White, Black and gold foil. The DSP on this card shows 2 of the designs with Melon Mambo and White.

 

I used Whisper White (#106549) for the base card, the balloon and the icing for the cupcake. Melon Mambo card (#119980) was used for the base of the cupcake, the candle and behind the DSP. Happy Birthday from Circle Of Spring stamp set (#p138964) was stamped with Melon Mambo ink (#126948). The icing, candle and cupcake base were also stamped with Melon Mambo ink. I have only stamped one image for the cupcake but you can use the 2 step stamping and stamp it with the 3 different images. The cupcake was attached to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The balloon was punched with the Balloon Bouquet punch (#140609) and the cupcake and candle were cut with the Cupcake Cutouts Framelits (#141474).

That's all for today.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Scrapbook pages

Hello again,

I keep promising myself to do more scrapbooking but it just doesn't seem to happen, but this week had a chance to do a double page.

 

 

 

I chose red and grey to coordinate with the cardigan and of course the stripes as well. The 12" x 12" Real Red cardstock is from the Brights 12"x12" cardstock (#1311860 and the red stripe paper is from the Brights Designer Series Paper Stack (#138434). The grey DSP is retired. The black card is Basic Black A4 cardstock (#121688) and the smaller pieces of red card is A4 Real Red (#106578). The No.1 is cut with the Large Numbers Framelits (#140622). The letters are stamped with the Numbers Of Years stamp set (#p140653) using Real Red ink (#126949) and these were cut with the Layering Ovals Framelits (#141706). The squiggle and cupcake were cut with the Cupcake Cutouts Framelits (#141474). Whisper White card (#106549) was used to stamp the letters on, as well as Happy Birthday and the icing for the cupcake. The stamp set for the cupcake is Sweet Cupcake (#p141498). Happy Birthday is from the Birthday Blossoms stamp set (#c139471, #w139167) and cut with the Framelit from the Cupcake Cutouts Framelits. A Real Red Stampin' Write Marker from the Brights Collection (#131259) was used on the banner where there are some score lines.

Have a great week.

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Guy Greetings

Hello,

Time for a masculine card and for this I have used the Guy Greetings stamp set (#c138828, #w138825, #p137178).

 

The base card is Basic Black (#121688) and the other cardstock is Real Red (#106578), Whisper White (#106549) and Pop Of Pink Specialty Designer Series Paper (#141648). The tools from the Guy Greetings stamp set was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and Black Embossing powder (which is now retired). I used the Lots Of Labels Framelits (#138281) to cut this and the black card. I used Real Red ink (#126949) to sponge the edges of the White card as well as to stamp the greeting. The greeting was cut with a Framelit from the Project Life Cards & Labels (#135707). The greeting and black card were attached to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

Have a great day.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

May Flower Framelits

Hello,

There is so much choice in beautiful images available in the Stampin' Up! Framelits and Thinlits. I have used the May Flowers Thinlits (#140276) on this card for the flowers and leaves.

 

For the base card and large flower I used Watermelon Wonder card (#138341). The leaves are cut from Garden Green card (#108605) and the small flower was stamped on Whisper White card (#106549). This flower is from the Falling Flowers stamp set (#c139556, #w1395530 and stamped with Crushed Curry ink (#131173) and I coloured the petals with Daffodil Deight ink (#126944) using a Blender Pen (#102845). The background was stamped with various images from the Touches Of Texture stamp set (#c143251, #w141945) using Crumb Cake ink (#126975), Crushed Curry ink and Garden Green ink (#126973). The sentiment from Mixed Borders stamp set (#p141932) was stamped with Garden Green ink and cut with one of the Layering Ovals Framelits (#141706). The edges of this was sponged with Watermelon Wonder ink (#138323). The large flower and leaves were glued with the Fine Tip Glue Pen (#138309. The small flower was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) and I added a White Perfect Accent (#138416) to the flower.

The weekend is here again, so have a good one.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!
