Forever Fern Bundle with Daisy Lane

Hello friends,

I was so pleased with the finished result of this card, very subtle but gorgeous (even if I do say so myself). As usual it looks so much better in real life.





I stamped the leaf from the Forever Fern stamp set (#c152559) onto the Whisper White card front (#106549) using VersaMark (#102283). This was then embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109132) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). I did the same with the feathers from the Tasteful Touches stamp set (#152562). Then I lightly daubered the leaf and feathers with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102). I stamped 2 of each of the daisy images from the Daisy Lane stamp set (#c149325). Again these were stamped with VersaMark and White Emboss Powder on Whisper White card and I daubered the images with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). The daisies were punched with the Daisy punch (#143713) for the larger daisy and the Medium Daisy Punch (#149517) for the smaller daisies. For the centre of the daisies I used a die from the Magnolia Memory Dies (#149578) and Champagne Foil Sheet (#144748). The daisy was assembled using Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and the whole daisy was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I used the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714) to cut the leaves from the Soft Sea Foam card (#147012). The Champagne Foil Sheet was embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder (#152718). “You are so Special” is from the Tasteful Touches stamp set and I stamped this with Daffodil Delight ink. A die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies (#151690) cut the sentiment.

Enjoy whatever you are doing today and keep crafting!!

World Of Good Memories & More pack

Hi & welcome,

A lovely masculine card using the World Of Good Memories & More card Pack (#153600). This pack is great for both cards and scrapbooking.




The 2 pieces of Designer Paper are from the Memories & More pack. I stamped “Happy Birthday” from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (#c151595) onto the card with Early Espresso ink (#147114). The 2 feathers were also stamped with Early Espresso ink onto Whisper White card (#106549) then fussy cut. These feathers are from the Tasteful Touches stamp set (#c152562) and the top one was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I added some sparkle to the feathers using the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897). The corners from the Antiqued Corners & Slides (#152471) were added to the card using Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The base card is Whisper White.

Have a great weekend.

Stay Safe & Keep Crafting!!

Blossoms In Bloom Bundle

Hello friends,

When I first saw the Blossoms In Bloom Bundle (#154123) I knew it was on top of my wish list. There are so many variations you can achieve with this bundle.



I stamped the flowers from the Blossoms In Bloom stamp set (#152684) using the stamping off method as I wanted a lighter image. This was stamped onto the Whisper White card front (#106549) with Real Red ink (#147084). The dies from the Many Layered Blossoms Dies (#153582) cut the Real Red card (#106578) and the Basic Black card (#121688). I first attached the Real Red die cut over the stamped image, followed by the Basic Black die cut. I added some glitter to the Real Red card with the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897). “Thinking Of You” is from the Blossoms In Bloom stamp set and stamped with Real Red ink. This was cut with a Tasteful Labels Die (#152886). The banner ends under the sentiment is also cut with the Tasteful Labels Dies using Basic Black card. The sentiment was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and I added the Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#146924).

I hope you are having a great day.

Keep crafting!!

Misty Moonlight card (#153086) is the next layer followed by the Flowers For Every Season 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#152486). The sentiment from the Rooted In Nature stamp set (#148217) was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and then sprinkled with the Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109129). This is then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). A die from the Tasteful Labels (#152886) was used to cut the sentiment. I sponged the edges with VersaMark and also heat embossed with the Gold Emboss Powder. The Magenta Madness card (#153085) was cut with a die from the Tasteful Labels. The leaves cut with a Forever Flourishing Die (#152714) and I used Just Jade card (#153084), then I used the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897) to add the sparkle to the leaves. A Misty Moonlight 2020-2022 In Colour Enamel Dot (#152480) was added to the sentiment. The sentiment and leaf were attached using Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Scrapbook page with Forever Flourishing Dies

Welcome friends,

A beautiful scrapbook page using the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714) which co-ordinate with the Forever Fern Stamp set (#c152559). These are available together in the Forever Fern bundle (#154094) which gives you a 10% discount.





I attached a piece of the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper (#152488) to the 12”x12” Whisper White card (#124302). I cut the Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) with a die from the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714). I also stamped some leaves from the Forever Fern stamp set (#c152559) with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) and these were also cut with the Forever Flourishing Dies. I stamped the large and medium daisies from Daisy Lane stamp set (#c149325) using VersaMark (#102283) onto Real Red card (#106578) and Daffodil Delight card (#121680). I then sprinkled the images with Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109130) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). Each of these flowers were then punched with the Daisy punch (#143713) for the larger flower and the Medium Punch (#149517) for the smaller flower. I used 2 of each flower image to make each individual flower and assembled them with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The flowers and leaves were also attached to the page with Mini Glue dots. I then stamped the splotches of dots from the Forever Fern stamp set to the background using Soft Sea Foam ink.

I hope you have had a chance to check out the new catalogue which is now available for ordering. If not you can check it out here

Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper

Hello again,

Here’s another card using some of the gorgeous new products in the new annual catalogue which is available from 3rd June.




The base card & card front are Whisper White (#106549) and I embossed the card front with the Pinewood Planks 3D Embossing Folder (#152320). I cut a strip of Garden Green card (#108605) and used a die from the Stitched Nested Labels Dies (#149638) for the stitched look. I then attached a piece of the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper (#152492) to the Garden Green strip and attached this to the card. The Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#152493) is where you will find this beautiful detailed cutout, along with a great variety of other cutouts. The sentiment is from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559) and I stamped this with Garden Green ink (#147089). I cut this out with a die from the Stitched Nested Labels. As there isn’t a die this exact size, I repositioned the die to cut it to the size I wanted. This was then attached to the Gold cutout with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Gold Glitter Enamel Dots (#152155) were added to the bottom of the card.

Enjoy your day and keep crafting!!

Tasteful Textures

Hi,

As I said yesterday, I would show you a sneak peek of some of the gorgeous new products from the Annual Catalogue which goes live on 3rd June, so not much longer to wait to get these great products.





The stamped images are all from the Tasteful Touches stamp set (#152562). I have used Very Vanilla card (#106550) and Mango Melody card (#147013). The flower and the sentiment were both stamped with Mango Melody ink (#147093) and I fussy cut the flower. I used Granny Apple Green ink (#147095) for the leaves and Crumb Cake ink (#147116) for the squares. The gold leaves are from the gorgeous Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (#152493) and the wooden leaves are from the In Good Taste Elements (#152476). I lightly sponged the edges of these leaves with Mango Melody ink. The Granny Apple Green leaves (#147014) were cut with a die from the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714). I used Mini Glue Dots (#103683) to attach the gold leaves, wooden leaves and the die cut leaves to the card. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the flower. The Gold Glitter Enamel Dots (#152155) were added to the card and I also used the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897) to add some sparkle to the flower.

If you live in Australia (and don’t have a demonstrator) and  would like a new catalogue, please contact me so I can send you one.

Stay safe and keep crafting!!
