Stampin’ Up! Mosiac Mood Yellow Rose

Stampin’ Up! Mosiac Mood Yellow Rose

My card today is created using Stampin’ Up! Mosiac Mood DSP,  Stampin’ Up! Strong and Beautiful Stamp Set, Stampin’ Up! New Wonders Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set.

My challenge today is with  Happy  Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies.  I have used a die to cut the circle and the filigree on the left side of my card.

It starts with a Stampin’ Up! So Saffron card stock base, then a layer of Stampin’ Up! Pretty Peacock card stock for the mat for the Stampin’ Up! Mosiac Mood DSP focal panel.  The filigree on the left of the card front is cut from Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock using the Stampin’ Up! Delicate Lace Dies.

The greeting is from the Stampin’ Up! New Wonders Stamp Set and is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on the circle of Whisper White card stock which is matted on a circle of Pretty Peacock card stock.  The circles have been cut using the Stampin’ Up! Circle Layering Dies.

The inside sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Strong and Beautiful Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set is matted on a panel of Pretty Peacock card stock and stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the floral theme of the card.  I   gave the envelope flap a panel from the Stampin’ Up! Mosiac Mood DSP.   Don’t you just love this DSP, it is so pretty! A butterfly was fussy cut from a panel of the Mosiac Mood DSP and adhered in the right corner of the envelope with Liquid Glue.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and my wish is that your day be blessed.

Amy’s Inkin’ Krew June Team Blog Hop!

Amy’s Inkin’ Krew June Team Blog Hop!

Welcome to the June blog hop of Amy’s Inkin’ Krew.  We are so glad you are here because you are going to see some awesome projects that the team has created.   I hope you enjoy all the ideas and our blog hop.  Our theme for this month is “Birthday”.   You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Krew member’s blog.  You will find the full line-up below to help you hop along from Krew member to Krew member.   On we go…

My card for the hop is created by using the Stampin’ Up! To A Wild Rose Stamp Set. 

I am playing along with the Crafty Hazelnuts Patterned Paper June Challenge for today.

And… Seize the Birthday

The foundation of the card is Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock, cut 4-1/4″ x 11″ and scored and folded at 5-1/2″.  A panel of Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper is used as a background panel for the 2″ x 4″ panel that is used for the rose mat. This 2″ x 4″ panel is bordered using the Stampin’ Up! Delicate Lace Dies to cut the lacy pieces from a strip of Whisper White card stock.  The wild rose is stamped on a 3″ square of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored using Stampin’ Blends Light Petal Pink marker, Stampin’ Blends Light Flirty Flamingo marker,  Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Pencils in Melon Mambo and Real Red. The leaves are cut from a panel of the Bird Ballad DSP.  A bow is made and popped on the card using Stampin’ Up!  Baker’s Whisper White Twine.  The greeting from Stampin’ Up! Well Said Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento black ink on a small square of Whisper White card stock. 

The inside sentiment is the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set and is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the floral theme of the card.  I   gave the envelope flap a panel from the Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad DSP.  A rose is stamped in the lower left corner of the envelope and colored with the same markers and pencils as the rose on the card front.

Stampin’ Up! Floral Essence

Stampin’ Up! Floral Essence

Stampin’ Up! Floral Essence Stamp Set is used for my creation today.  I hope everyone had a great weekend!  We did!  Since our fearless leader moved off to New Jersey and left us we had a meeting at another team member’s home on Sunday and our leader had a meeting with us via the internet  — isn’t technology grand!  Here she was in her beautiful and I do mean beautiful new home especially her craft room with another bunch of ladies, she had already replaced all of us — SMILE!  No, it was the part of our team that lives in New Jersey and isn’t God good to send her where she already has a huge bunch of friends.  He doesn’t want her to be lonely.  We miss you Amy but know you are starting a new adventure and that you will be well taken care of by that part of our team, we are so happy for you but not that you are gone!  Take good care of her “ya’ll”!  Well, that’s enough whining on to the card.

My design comes from Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

 

This is practically a one layer card with only the Stampin’ Up! Pool Party card stock base and the small Stampin’ Up! Pretty Peacock card stock mat for the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White art panel.  Both are less than half the card front.  The card front and the other two panels are embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder.  The flowers are also embossed.

 

The art piece is the flowers from Stampin’ Up! Floral Essence Stamp Set.  They have been stamped on Stampin’ Up! Thick Whisper White card stock using Stampin’ Up! Melon Mambo, Pretty Peacock, Mossy Meadow, and Daffodil Delight inks. Stampin’ Up! Pearl Basic Jewels have been colored with Stampin’ Up! Pool Party ink.

The inside sentiment is from Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday and stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  A flower from the Floral Essence stamp set is stamped in Melon Mambo  and Mossy Meadow ink that has been stamped off once

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the floral theme of the card.  I   gave the envelope flap a panel from the Stampin’ Up! Perennial Essence DSP.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and my wish is that your day be blessed.

Stampin’ Up! A Good Man

Stampin’ Up! A Good Man

Thank you to all the people who follow my blog.  I truly appreciate you!

My card today is created using the Stampin’ Up! A Good Man stamp set and  Stampin’ Up! Waterfront stamp set.  Waterfront is a stamp set I have had for a long, long time, but today is the first use.  I have others that hopefully, I will get to before they retire in June 2020.

I am playing along at these challenges today. My first list is Hand Stamped Sentiments #316 My card is a bit different than all the flowers and I sure hope I was not supposed to include them.  I did do all the colors that’s where the inspiration for the sky, moon, palm tree that is small I know, and the ocean.  If I am disqualified then I will just play again another day.

And… Always Fun Challenges

And…  the Crafty Catz Challenge

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bushel card stock.  The card base is embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Seaside TIEF, which I must have overlooked as retired when I pulled retired products.  Did not realize it until I started writing this. My card is a sweet little card with a dad and his little girl looking out at the ocean one last time for the day.  She has her sleepy head on his shoulder as dad looks at palm trees in the distance.  Doesn’t it make you yearn for the beach?

The art piece is Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Paper.  I have used Stampin’ Up! Balmy Blue, Seaside Spray, Highland Heather, Mossy Meadow inks to create the sky and the ocean.  Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake ink was used for the sand.  The distant palm tree is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow and Crumb Cake inks.  The moon was stamped in Stampin’ Up! So Saffron ink using the moon from the Stampin’ Up! Waterfront stamp set.  The art piece has a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock mat.

The inside sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! A Good Man stamp set and the Well Said stamp set

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the ocean theme of the card.  I   gave the envelope flap a panel from the Stampin’ Up! Come Sail Away DSP.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and my wish is that your day be blessed.

Stampin’ Up! Geared Up Garage with Let It Ride

Stampin’ Up! Geared Up Garage with Let It Ride

My card today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Geared Up Garage and Stampin’ Up! Let It Ride stamp sets.  We think of these two sets as masculine, but I know many ladies who can work on cars and love their horses.  Two friends come to mind at the moment who are horse enthusiasts and love their horses.  I have a wonderful, lovely picture of one with her horse when she was younger.  It will bring tears to my eyes when I see it.  It is such a sweet picture of the two and shows how much they love and trust each other.

My challenge for the day is Sunday Stamps sketch challenge.

There is a card base of Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock with two mats in two different sizes.  The art piece is a combination of the two stamp set I am using today.  They are Stampin’ Up! Let It Ride and Stampin’ Up Geared Up Garage stamp sets. The art piece is stamped in several colors, Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow and Pear Pizzazz inks for the trees.  The horses and car are stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink and then colored. I used Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake for the horses and Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends Light Bermuda Bay Markers for the car.  The greetings on the front are from the Stampin’ Up! Let It Ride and Stampin’ Up! Geared Up Garage stamp sets.  The sky is colored lightly with a Stampin’ Up! Balmy Blue Watercolor Pencil.

I made two sentiments for the inside so that the person I was making this for could choose whether it should be a birthday or Father’s Day card.

 

In finishing my card I decorated a Whisper White Envelope so it will coordinate with the art panel on the card front.  I  stamped the images from the Stampin’ Up! Let It Ride stamp set on the front of the envelope and gave the same to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and my wish is that your day be blessed
