Itty Bitty Birthday with Floral Romance

February 17, 2019 admin

The card today is from the Floral Romance Designer Specialty Paper (DSP) and the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set.

My inspiration is coming from the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge featuring Vellum. The lovely floral vellum in Floral Romance is perfect for this challenge.

The card base is Fresh Fig with a panel of Petal Pink for a mat. The lovely floral panel from the Floral Romance DSP is matted on a panel of White White to bring out the beauty of the vellum pattern. The greeting is stamped in Fresh Fig ink on a label that has been cut with a die from the Rose Trellis Framelits Die set. Several leaves have been cut from the Floral Romance DSP and adhered to the label with Glue Dots. I can’t find the spool of ribbon now that I made the bow from so I do not know the name but I believe it was a Fresh Fig. You know when you are in a hurry things do not go well. I was thinking tomorrow was the deadline for this challenge and it is in about 30 minutes.

The sentiment was stamped on a panel of Whisper White in Fresh Fig ink and then a floral panel of the Floral Romance DSP is adhered over it. The sentiment and greeting are from the Itty Bitty Stamp set.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you find encouragement and inspiration for your own creations.

Lasting Lily

February 16, 2019 admin

I am using the Lasting Lily stamp bundle. This is a Sale-A-Bration item or I should say items because the stamp set is free with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration and the Framelits Dies are free with a $100 purchase.

I am playing along with three challenges The Flower Challenge #29 – Use Your latest Stamps and Dies.

And…

The Watercooler Challenges – WWC208 – Charlotte’s “All About Occasions” Challenge.

And…

The Freshly Made Sketches 375

Start with a Whisper White card base.
Add a panel of Gorgeous Grape card stock embossed using the Subtle Textured Impression Embossing Folder (TIEF)
Run a panel of Whisper White card stock through the Big Shot using one of the dies from the Dear Doily stamp bundle.
Add the doily to the Gorgeous Grape panel.
Stamp your lilies from the Lasting Lily stamp set in Highland Heather ink and Garden Green ink for the leaves and stem.
Fussy cut the lilies out and pop over the doily using Stampin Dimensionals. There are dies that you can use to cut the lilies but I forgot and stamped the stem and leaves before I remembered they are cut out separately.
Add a Polka Dot Tulle Bow adhered with a Glue Dot.
Add three Pearl Basic Jewels scattered over the card front.
Stamp the greeting in Gorgeous Grape ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and cut out.
Pop the greeting on the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The inside sentiment is from the Humming Along stamp set and stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.
Two lilies from the Lasting Lily stamp set are stamped in Gorgeous Grape and Garden Green ink.
Gorgeous Grape card stock is used as the mat for the sentiment panel.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you like my creation and that you can find some encouragement or inspiration for your own creations. Have a blessed day.

Amazing Life

February 15, 2019 admin

The stamp set I am using today is Amazing Life and that is the stamp set featured this week for the What Would You Stamp challenge.

I am playing along with the What Would You Stamp

And.. Paper Craft Crew Card Stamps. Inspiration comes from both.

The card base is Whisper White with a Whisper White mat that has been embossed with the Country Floral Textured Impression Embossing Folder (TIEF).

A banner cut from one of the Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheets (free with $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration) is adhered using Liquid Glue.

The cake of the art piece is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a square of Whisper White that has been cut using the Layering Square Framelits Dies. The cake is colored using Blushing Bride and Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blend Markers. The greeting is stamped over the cake in Lovely Lipstick, but it sure looks different than the Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheet. This is popped on a Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheet for a mat and then popped on the Country Floral mat using Stampin’ Dimensionals. A heart is cut from Vellum and a small star is cut from a scrap of the Lovely Lipstick Foil these are popped over the skinny banner at the bottom of the art piece. Three Gingham Gala Sequins have been scattered over the art piece front.

The inside sentiment is stamped in Lovely Lipstick ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock that has been trimmed with strips of the Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheets.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you found my card favorable with encouragement and inspiration for your own creations. Have a blessed day!

Follow Your Dreams and Let It Ride

February 14, 2019 admin

I am using the Let It Ride, Follow Your Dreams and Strong and Beautiful stamp sets for my card today. I have come to really like the Follow Your Dreams stamp set and sure hope that it will carry over to the 2019-2020 Annual catalog.

Inspiration for today’s card comes from Just Us Girls Challenge. It is Trend Week.

I started with a Bermuda Bay card base. I also cut the Delicate Lace decorative strip that is down the left side from Bermuda Bay.

A panel is cut from the Wood Texture Designer Series Paper (DSP) to stamp the greeting and horse. They are both stamped using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink. The horse is then colored using Early Expresso ink and a Blender Pen. The edges of the panel are distressed using the edge of my scissors. The inside sentiment panel is also distressed.

I cut three Dream Catchers from the stamp set Follow Your Dreams. I used a Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet on the back of the Wood Texture DSP so the pieces would be easier to adhere together. By adhering three together it gives dimension so they do not look so flat when adhered to the card front.

The Lacy Edgelit piece is also adhered to the card front using the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet adhered to the back of the Bermuda Bay card stock. After it and the Dream Catcher are adhered to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue the panel is popped on the card base using Stampin Dimensionals. A dot from the Glitter Enamel Dots is adhered to the center of the Dream Catcher.

A panel from the Wood Texture DSP is cut and the sentiment along with the Dream Catcher is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink. An enamel dot from the Glitter Enamel Dots is adhered to the center of the Dream Catcher.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you find my card to your liking and that you can get inspiration and encouragement for your own creation

Sweetest Thing

February 13, 2019 admin

My inspiration and design come from Fusion Tea and Bouquet Challenge

The card starts with a Melon Mambo card base. A Whisper White panel is then adhered to the card base using Liquid Multipurpose Glue.

A panel of How Sweet It Is Designer Series Paper (DSP) is cut and stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink with a greeting from the stamp set Sweetest Thing.

Using the Layering Circle Framelits Dies a circle is cut from a panel from All My Love DSP. It is used as the background for the candy jars. It is popped on the How Sweet It Is DSP panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the dies from the Sweetest Things stamp bundle (the framelits dies with this bundle are called Jar of Sweets.) two candy jars with candy are cut from the How Sweet It Is DSP. Several different candies including a big lollipop are fussy cut from a panel of the How Sweet It Is DSP. All of these are popped on the All My Love DSP Circle. Three Gingham Gala sequins are scattered around the card front.

The sentiment is stamped in Melon Mambo ink on a panel of Whisper White. The sentiment is from the Strong and Beautiful stamp set and the Meant To Be stamp set. The heart stamped in the lower right corner is also from the Meant To Be stamp set and is stamp using Melon Mambo Ink.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you like this fun card. My wish is that you find inspiration and encouragement for your own creations as usual. Have a blessed day!
