Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

Hi again,

I am so happy that the Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#147906) is still available from the Holiday catalogue as it is such a beautiful embossing folder. 

Using a Sponge Brayer (#141714), I rolled Soft Suede ink (#147115) over one side of the embossing folder. Then I gently placed the Very Vanilla card (#106550) into the embossing folder and embossed as normal. This transfers the ink to the card for this beautiful result. Depending on which side of the folder you ink, depends on the finished result. This was then attached to the Soft Suede base card (#119982). “Sending Love” is from the Climbing Roses stamp set (#cling148658), stamped with Soft Suede ink, then cut with a die from the Rose Trellis Thinlits Dies (#148549). This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves were cut from Pear Pizzaz card (#131290) and Soft Suede card. These were cut with dies from the Wonderful Floral Framelits Dies (#148529). The 1/4” Copper Trim (#144179) which has a loose weave, allows you to stretch it to shape it. The wooden element is part of the Butterfly Elements (#149711), one of the Sale-a-bration free products (with a $90 order).

Enjoy what you are doing today.

Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies

Hello,

With Valentine’s Day not far away, this card would be suitable for that very special person in your life. I love these beautifully detailed hearts which were cut with a die from the Be Mine Stitched Framelits (#148527).

The Designer Series Paper is from the Petal Promenade pack (#146913). The scalloped pieces are also cut with the Be Mine Stitched Framelits. I used Grapefruit Grove card (#146995) for this. The hearts were cut from the Gold Foil Sheets (#132622) which I had the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet (#144106) adhered to the back. “I Love You” is from the Detailed With Love stamp set (#c146606, #w146603) and stamped with Grapefruit Grove ink (#147142). This was cut with a die from the Rectangle Stitched Framelits (#148551). These are my favourite framelits at the moment with 13 different dies. They have stitching on both sides of the cutting line so you can use both pieces of the card. I added a pearl to the sentiment from the Share What You Love Artisan  Pearls (#146927)

I hope you are having a great day.

Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper

Welcome again,

I seem to use heat embossing on most of my cards, as I think it enhances the stamping. So today I thought I would try embossing on the Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#148812) and was very pleased with the results making it very elegant.

Using one of the pieces for cards, I  VersaMarked (#102283) the piece of detailed cut out, then covered it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129). I heat set this with the Heat Tool (#129056) and repeated again making sure the whole piece was covered. I then glued this to the Blueberry Bushel base card (#146991). There are 2 ways I find you can glue this, firstly with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309) or using the Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755) which I used here. The easiest way to use this glue on these detailed pieces is to squeeze some glue onto the Silicone Craft Sheet (#127853) and using a sponge, apply the glue gently all over the back of the paper. This will ensure all the little pieces will adhere to the card. The sentiment is from the Climbing Roses stamp set (#cling148658) and stamped with Blueberry Bushel ink (#147138), then cut with the label from the Rose Trellis Thinlits Dies (#148549). This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves are from the Butterfly Elements (#149711),  a sale-a-bration product. I coloured them with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) using a Dauber (#133773). I used the Fine-tip Glue Pen to attach these. The ribbon is the Gold 1/8” cord (#147528). To finish the card I added some Gold Sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment (#144214) to the label.

Have a great day.

Scrapbook page

Hi friends,

I used the gorgeous leaf border from the Wonderful Floral Framelits Dies (#148529) on this scrapbook page for my grand daughters confirmation. So pretty!!

The Designer Series Paper for the base page is from the Tranquil Textures (#146331). The card to matt the photos are Very Vanilla (#106550) and Balmy Blue (#147007). The leaf border was also cut from Very Vanilla card. The dove from Serene Garden stamp set (#p146501) was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat Embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129). The co-ordinating die to cut the dove comes from the Garden Scene Framelits (#146355). The crosses are cut with the Cross Of Hope Framelits (#145654). I used Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) for the small cross and Very Vanilla card for the fancy cross. The Gold Foil oval under the dove is cut with a die from the Wonderful Floral Framelits. The rectangle cut with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits (#148551) is for some journaling. The border and crosses were glued to the page with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309)

I hope your day has been great.

Meant To Be

Hi everyone,

I love elegant cards and this one doesn’t disappoint and is very easy. The Beautifully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#148812) has been used for the background. This beautiful paper has Petal Pink colour on one side and white on the other. Of course you could colour the white side with any coloured ink to co-ordinate with any card colour. The pack consists of 4 sheets of one design in 12” x 12” size, and 4 sheets which can be cut for cards or scrapbook pages, in a variety of designs. I have used one of the card size designs here.

I used Gorgeous Grape card (#147011) for the base card and glued the Laser cut paper to this with the Fine Tip Glue Pen (#138309). The heart with the flowers is from Meant To Be Stamp Set (#cling148626) and stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099).  “Sending Love” can be found in the Climbing Roses stamp set (#cling 148658).  The hearts were cut with the co-ordinating dies from the Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies (#148527). There are 16 dies in this set which cut a great variety of shapes and designs. The heart with the sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Simply Beautiful!!

Tea Together & Tea Time Framelits

Hello,

There are so many beautiful products in the Occasions and Sale-a-bration catalogues. I have used a variety of products in this 12”x12” 3D framed project.

The Tea Together stamp set (#cling148779) from the Occasions catalogue co-ordinates with the Tea Time Framelits Dies (#149697) which are available from the  Sale-a-bration catalogue. This set of framelits are free with a $180 order. Products can be ordered from the Occasions Catalogue and or the Annual Catalogue. 

The marble background is from the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper (#146913). The teapot and cup & saucer are from the Tea Together stamp set. I stamped these with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129) which was heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056). You will notice that I have stamped them as a mirror image. To do this I used the Stamparatus (#148187) and the Silicone Craft Sheet (#127853). Ink your image with VersaMark and stamp onto the Silicone Sheet which you have placed onto the Stamparatus. I stamped 3 times to get a good amount of VersaMark onto the sheet. Next I took the Whisper White card and carefully placed it on top of the stamped image and rubbed firmly to transfer the VersaMark to the card. Lift the card carefully and add the emboss powder to the card as normal and heat set as usual. Now to cut the mirror image with the framelit, place the framelit on the back of the card. You need to hold this to the light to line it up. Add a post-it- note to keep in it place and cut with the Big Shot (#143263) as usual. The flowers on the cups and teapots are also from the Tea Together stamp set. They were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Light Daffodil Delight (#144586) Light Mango Melody (#147943) and Light Old Olive (#144574).

The lacey pieces cut from Daffodil Delight card (#121680) were cut with a die from the Rose Trellis Thinlits Dies (#148549). The Lovely Lattice stamp set (#149730), also from Sale-a-bration, was also embossed with Gold Emboss Powder, then coloured with the same blends as on the cup & teapot, plus Light & Dark Rich Razzleberry (#144602) and Pink Pirouette (now retired). The corners of the Whisper White card were punched with the Detailed Trio Punch (#146320). This was attached to the Rich Razzleberry card (#119981) and Daffodil Delight card. The Rich Razzleberry ovals were cut with the Stitched Shapes Framelits (#145372). 

Enjoy your day.

Let It Ride

Welcome,

Another beautiful stamp set which is suitable for males or for any horse lover is the Let It Ride stamp set (#cling148765). 

I was having a bit of a clean up the other day (a never ending job around here) and came across the Embossing Paste which I haven’t used for a while, so thought it was time to do something with it again. I used it for the background for this card.

Using a mask from the Pattern Party Decorative Masks (#144103) and the Shimmery White Embossing Paste (#145645), I applied the paste with a Palette Knife (#142808) onto Whisper White card (#106549). I then decided to see what it would look like by adding some Copper Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#141636). I added the powder while the paste was still wet, then heat set it with the Heat Tool (#129056) and I was very happy with the results. This was attached to the Soft Suede base card (#119982). The horse from the Let It Ride stamp set was stamped with Soft Suede ink (#147115), then VersaMark (#102283), then added Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109130) and set it with the Heat Tool. When stamping and embossing this way, use the Stamparatus (#148187) and don’t move the card or the stamp until all stamping is done. Also you need to clean the ink from the stamp before adding the VersaMark to ensure you don’t transfer the ink to the VersaMark. I fussy cut the horse and attached it to the Whisper White rectangular card using Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). This white rectangle, the sentiment and Soft Suede rectangle are cut with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies (#148551). The sentiment is from the Let It Ride stamp set and stamped with Soft Suede ink. The 1/4” Copper Ribbon was attached to the card. This is a loose weave trim which you can use straight or pull into various shapes. I added some copper sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment (#144214) using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen (#138309) to complete the card.

Have a great day.
