Many Layered Blossoms Dies

Hello everyone,

As I said a couple of days ago, I love the variety that can be achieved with the Blossoms In Bloom Bundle (#p154123). I have only used the dies on this card from this bundle but it looks so effective in gold & black, and even better in real life.




I dry embossed a piece of Very Vanilla card (#106550) with the beautiful Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder (#152702) and attached this to the Very Vanilla base card. I used the Many Layered Dies (#152684) to cut the Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) and the Basic Black card (#121688). I had adhered the Adhesive Sheets (#152334) to the back of both these papers before cutting. The black card was attached to the gold foil, then this was attached to the card front. “Thinking Of You” is from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set (#c149298) and stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129), then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). A die from the Tasteful Labels Dies (#152886) cut the sentiment and this was attached to the Basic Black circle which was cut with a Layering Circles Die (#151770) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

Enjoy whatever you are doing today, hopefully something crafty!!

Many Mates Bundle

Hello friends,

The background for this card is cut with the Many Medallions Dies (#153584), which is part of the Many Mates Bundle (#c154083).





This die cut piece and the base card are Very Vanilla (#106550). I wrapped the Just Jade 1/4” ribbon (#153621) which is one of the  2020-2022 In Colors,  around the die cut. I also cut another piece of Very Vanilla card with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies (#151690) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The laser cut piece from the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#152493) was attached to the rectangular piece, followed by another piece of Very Vanilla card with the sentiment. This sentiment is from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and stamped with Just Jade ink (#153115).

I hope you are enjoying the new products in the new Annual catalogue.

Have a great day.

Blossoms In Bloom Bundle

Welcome again,

I am loving the variety which can be achieved with this beautiful bundle - the Blossoms In Bloom bundle (#p154123).




I placed the floral image from the Blossoms In Bloom stamp set (#p152684) onto the Stamparatus (#148187) and coloured the flowers by daubering the colour onto each of the flowers. The reason I used the Stamparatus was in case I hadn’t added enough ink to the stamp and could re-ink and re-stamp it easily. The colour inks I used were Flirty Flamingo (#147052), Daffodil Delight (#147094), Coastal Cabana (#147097), Seaside Spray (#150085) and Highland Heather (#147103). Then I cut the Champagne Foil Sheet (#144748) which I had backed with the Adhesive Sheets (#152334). This was cut with the Many Layered Blossoms Die (#154123), then attached to the card. The sentiment is also from the Blossoms In Bloom stamp set and stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) and cut with a Tasteful Labels Die (#152886). The designer paper is from the Subtles 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#153072). I finished the card by adding the glitter to the flowers using the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897). I think this is one of my favourite tools at the moment as I seem to use it on nearly every card I make. It also shows up much better in real life than when photographed.

I hope your weekend has been fun and productive.

Tasteful Touches

Hello everyone,

Here I have combined the Tasteful Touches stamp set (#152562) with the Forever Fern Bundle (#154094).





I stamped the flowers with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099), then re-stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and added Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109130) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I then coloured the petals with Purple Posy Stamping Blends (#154896) and Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends (#154887). The flowers were fussy cut. I stamped the leaves from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559) using Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) and Granny Apple Green (#147095). The Garden Green (#108605) leaves were cut with the Forever Flourishing dies (#152714). I used Brass Foil Sheet (#153057) for the leaves under the flowers. These were also cut with a die from the Forever Flourishing dies. “Hello” is from the Tasteful Touches stamp set and I used Highland Heather ink (#147103). This was cut with a Tasteful Touches Labels die (#152886). The flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). A Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewel (#151193) was added to the sentiment. 
The base card is Purple Posy (#150887), the next layer is Gorgeous Grape (#147011), followed by Whisper White (#106549).

I hope you are enjoying a crafty weekend.

Boho Indigo Product Medley

Hello friends,

At first glance at the Boho Indigo Product Medley (#153132), you probably wouldn’t expect a card which doesn’t have any blue in it. However there are dry embossed Very Vanilla card, gold die cut flowers and green & gold leaves included in this set and I have used some for today’s card.





The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550), then the next layer is Garden Green (#108605). The dry embossed card is the top layer. I stamped the sentiment from the Very Versailles stamp set (#149275) using Garden Green ink (#147089), onto the label from the product medley. The Gold Trim from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack (#152475) was wrapped around the card front. I attached the gold foil flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The green & gold leaves were glued to the card with the Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). The gold laser-cut leaves are from the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#152493) and also glued. Gold Glitter Enamel Dots (#152155) were added to the card, flower and sentiment.
This is an easy card to make as all the pieces are cut ready to assemble.

Have a crafty day!!

Game On

Hi,

Here’s another card using the Game On stamp set (#15246), and great for the card enthusiasts. The card and dice images are both from this set.




The base card is Whisper White (#106549) and the DSP is from the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (#152494). I stamped the cards with Real Red ink (#147084), using the Stamparatus (#148187). I then re-stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and added Clear Embossing Powder (#109130) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). This Whisper White card and the Real Red card were both cut with dies from the Stitched So Sweetly dies (#151690). “It’s Your Day” is from the Many Mates stamp set (#152633) and also stamped with Real Red ink. The die to cut this is from the Tasteful Labels Dies (#152886). The dice were stamped with VersaMark and Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109131), then fussy cut and attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Enjoy your day!

Game On stamp set

Hi and welcome,

Time for another masculine card. The Game On stamp set (#152646) is great for the man in your life.




The designer series paper is World Of Good Specialty DSP (#152491). This pack has antique designs and textures with Brass Foil designs on some of the sheets. The black with brass foil designer paper was cut with the Stitched Triangle Dies (#152710). I stamped an image from the Game On stamp set onto the Bumble Bee coloured DSP, using Sahara Sand ink (#147117). The sentiment, chess pieces and dice are all from the same stamp set. The sentiment was stamped with Bumble Bee ink (#153116) and cut with an Ornate Frames Die (#150664). The chess pieces and dice were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) on Sahara Sand card (#121695). This was embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109132) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). These were fussy cut before attaching to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Have a great day & keep crafting!!
