November 2020 – Stampin with Shirley G

Stampin’ Up! Dove of Hope

Hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend and are not too, too tired from all the cyber-shopping🤣

The card featured today highlights Stampin’ Up! Dove of Hope and For Unto Us Stamp Sets along with the Stampin’ Up! Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder.

The inspiration for today’s card comes from the Freshly Made Sketches 463 – a sketch by Amy.

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock with a layer of the same that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder. It barely shows up behind the art piece.

The three strips are cut from Stampin’ Up! Classic Christmas 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and positioned behind the art piece. They are adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

The art piece is from the Stampin’ Up! Dove of Hope stamp set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on the Whisper White panel that has been cropped using Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I believe this is the next to largest die.

The twig in the dove’s mouth and the branch it is on is colored using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends in Light Cherry Cobbler and Light and Dark Shaded Spruce markers.

The greeting from Stampin’ Up! For Unto Us stamp set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. Three Stampin’ Up! Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels are placed randomly around the card front.

The sentiment from Stampin’ Up! For Unto Us Stamp Set and Dove of Hope Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a Whisper White panel. Three small strips are adhered to the left side to resemble the strips on the card front.

The Stampin’ Up! Medium Whisper White envelope get a panel of the Classic Christmas 6″ x 6″ DSP and your project is finished.

Stampin’ Up! Flowers For Every Season

Aren’t we having a glorious Fall day?

There are three challenges that inspired me for today:

Freshly Made Sketches for a clean and simple design.

Watercooler Wednesday with Helen’s Challenge: All About Occasions. My occasion is Thanksgiving. Recently I have been making Thanksgiving cards for my sister and they all have the same greeting and sentiment.

The Sisterhood of Crafter – their challenge is embossing wet or dry. I have dry embossed my card.

Three days ago was the beginning of the card I am sharing today from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Goodness Stamp Set for the greeting, Stampin’ Up! Sunflower Dies, Stampin’ Up! Ornate Floral Embossing Folder, and Stampin’ Up! Flowers for Every Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. You can see it is bright and cheery, not your typical fall card colors.

I started with a Stampin’ Up! Just Jade card stock base added a Stampin’ Up! Just Jade card stock layer embossed with the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder.

A panel of Whisper White card stock was cut and adhered for the mat to the Stampin’ Up! Flowers For Every Season DSP panel. Two different pieces of the DSP is used. The leaves motif is cropped from a scrap when the Ornate Floral embossed panel was cut. A die from the Stampin’ Up! Sunflower Dies was used. It is adhered using Multipurpose Glue to several leaves. The “Thankful for You” greeting is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Just Jade ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and using the smallest die from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Rectangle Dies is cropped and popped on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The inside sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Goodness Stamp Set and is stamped in Just Jade ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock. A strip of the same DSP used on the card front is added to the side of the panel.

A Stampin’ Up! Medium Whisper White envelope gets a layer of DSP from the Stampin’ Up! Flowers For Every Season DSP.

Stampin’ Up! Life Is Beautiful

Make it a great day!

The card I am sharing today is from the Stampin’ Up! Life Is Beautiful Stamp Set. You can see it is bright and cheery.

My inspiration for this card comes from the Cupcake Inspiration #506

Dream Valley- Dies and/or Punches

I should look for a challenge that is layers, as I have so many, but it just did not look right to me otherwise. I started with a Stampin’ Up! Bumblebee card stock base added a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock layer, another Bumblebee card stock layer, a Stampin’ Up! Real Red card stock layer, and finally the art piece stamped on Whisper White card stock. All the layers have been cropped using Stampin’ Up! Stitched Rectangle Dies.

The tree image is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake ink, the birdhouse is Stampin’ Up! Real Red ink. The leaves are Stampin’ Up! Bumblebee ink and the pumpkin is Stampin’ Up! Pumpkin Pie ink. The greeting in Stampin’ Up! Early Espresso ink. I am hoping these browns are considered neutral.

The jewels are from Stampin’ Up! Rhinestone Basic Jewels that I colored using a Stampin’ Up! Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends marker. I adhered one jewel to the greeting and the other two are randomly placed.

The greeting is from Stampin’ Up! Autumn Goodness Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Early Espresso ink onto a scrap that was left from the crop of the art piece layer. I had a scrap piece of ribbon, the name and color I do not know as I colored the ribbon using a Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends marker.

The sentiment is from the Autumn Goodness Stamp Set and is stamped in Early Espresso ink. The shock of corn stalks is stamped in the same ink and from the same stamp set. It is colored using a Light So Saffron Stampin’ Blends marker, there is not a Bumblebee Stampin’ Blends.

Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy with Autumn Goodness

Enjoy the rain today if you are in our part of the country. Good day for staying inside. Walk up and down the hall to get your steps in or do you like to walk in the rain, I always have, the child in me I suppose.

The card today is a combination of Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Autumn Goodness Stamp Set. They go well together.

Inspiration for this card comes from three different challenges — Just Us Girls – Word Week

Sunday Stamps – Fall Leaves

And Stella Says Sketch

The card base is Stampin’ Up! Early Espresso card stock. To form the triangles I embossed a panel of the Early Espresso using the Stampin’ Up! Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder and adhered it to the card base using Multipurpose Glue. I cut a panel of Stampin’ Up! Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper and then cut diagonally. I matted it on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Bumblebee card stock. This triangle was also adhered using Multipurpose Glue.

The leaf garland from the Quite Curvy Stamp Set is adhered down the middle of the two triangles. The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock circle with the art piece from Autumn Goodness Stamp Set is cropped using Stampin’ Up! Layering Circle Dies. The greeting is stamped in Early Espresso ink on the art piece and at the bottom of the card front. Several rhinestones from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels is scattered randomly around the card front.

A sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Goodness Stamp Set is stamped in Early Espresso ink on the Whisper White card stock panel. The same artwork as the card front is stamped in the corner and colored using the same colors.

A Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Dandy Garden DSP adhered to the envelope flap.
