Stampin’ Up! Share What You Love, Tin Tile etc.

September 13, 2018 admin Comments 10 comments

Hope everyone in the path of the hurricane stays safe. Maybe it won’t be as bad as it seems. Maybe it will be down-graded before it hits the coast. There’s lots of rain already but the full fury of the hurricane has not hit yet. Stay Safe everyone!

Today I am playing with the Paper Players

My card today uses the Around the Corner stamp set and the Postcard Pals stamp and paper from the Share What You Love DSP, plus Crumb Cake for the card base and Blackberry Bliss that has been embossed using the Tin Tile DIEF. Mint Macaron is used for the third layer of my faux flower with Happy Birthday stamped on it. The layers of my faux flower are embossed using the Subtle Embossing folder. The little flower is stamped using the Around the Corner stamp set.

Ribbon is the Polka Dot Tulle and the pearls are the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.

I used Stampin Dimensionals to pop the Blackberry Bliss mat and the faux flower. The Share What You Love DSP is adhered to the Blackberry Bliss mat using Liquid Glue.

The inside sentiment is matted with Blackberry Bliss and Mint Macaron card stock. The sentiment is stamped in Blackberry Bliss on a panel of Whisper White. a strip of the Share What You Love DSP was cut 1/2″ and adhered down the left side.

I hope you found inspiration, hope and encouragement that you can use in your own card making or crafts. I am happy to share what I create with you. Thanks for stopping by.

Stampin Up! Dashing Deer

September 12, 2018 admin Comments 9 comments

I received this new stamp set and you know that with something you just have to play with it. This was a gift from my upline, upline. She is a kind, generous person.

I will be entering these in two challenges. The Cupcake Inspiration Challenge 453 and the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge

The card base is Shaded Spruce card stock with embossing using the Pine Planks Embossing folder. I cut a 3-7/8” x 4-1/2” panel from Cherry Cobbler card stock and embossed using the Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.

A 3-1/4” x 3-1/4” square from the All is Bright DSP was used to cut the deer using the Detailed Deer Thinlits Dies which is part of the bundle called Dashing Deer. You can save 10% buying this as a bundle instead of individually. The negative portion of the cut was adhered to the Cherry Cobbler panel embossed with the Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.

The three red flowers were cut from Cherry Cobbler using the three thinlits dies from the Detailed Deer Thinlits Dies. They were popped on the All is Bright DSP using Mini Stampin Dimensionals cut in fourths.

The gold strip separating the All is Bright DSP and the embossed Cherry Cobbler panel is a scrap from the Timeless Tiding Project Kit as is the edging on the embossed Cherry Cobbler panel. The “Merry” is cut using the Merry Christmas Thinlits Dies. The pearls are from the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.

The inside sentiment from the Dashing Deer Stamp Set is stamped in Cherry Cobbler on a panel of Whisper White and matted with Cherry Cobbler card stock.

Stampin Up! Pleasant Pheasants

September 11, 2018 admin Comments 2 comments

Today is 9-11. It has been 17 years since that fatal day happened. Where were you when you learned of the tragedy? We must always remember that freedom is not free. So many sacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy daily.

My card is made using the Pleasant Pheasant, Around the Corner and Beautiful You Stamp sets. Inspiration comes from the Inkpire Me Challenge #366.

My card base is Old Olive embossed using the Pine Plank Embossing folder with a mat from the Wood Texture DSP. 3” x 5”.
The mat for the art piece is a panel of Crumb Cake. 3-1/4” x 3-1/4”
The art piece is 3” x 3” and stamped using Memento Black Ink.
The art piece is colored using Stampin Up! Watercolor Pencils.
- Colors are: Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Old Olive, and Bermuda Bay.
The Wood Texture DSP was popped on the embossed Old Olive card front using Stampin Dimensionals.
The Crumb cake matted art piece was popped onto the Wood Texture DSP.
A tiny bow was made with Linen Thread and attached to the corner of the art piece with a glue dot.
The greeting “Celebrate” was stamped using Versa Mark and White Embossing powder then heat set.

The inside sentiment was stamped in Old Olive ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock matted using Crumb Cake card stock. The sentiments are from Around the Corner and Beautiful You.

Stampin Up! Colorful Seasons

September 10, 2018 admin Comments 2 comments

I love how this card turned out. My goal was to make a simple fall type card for the Freshly Made Sketch Challenge this week. I used the Stampin Up! Colorful Seasons and Pleasant Pheasant stamp set.

Which looks the best with or without the jewel embellishments?

I started by cutting a panel of Thick Whisper White cardstock and coloring it with different watercolor pencils in fall colors–Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze, Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Early Expresso. I then used an Aqua Painter to wet the paper well and using the brush tip I swirled the water all around to mix up the colors to make them more fall color looking. I put this panel aside to dry while completing other parts of the card. Leaves will be cut from this panel when it is dry.

My card base is square 5-1/4 x 5-1/4 in Daffodil Delight. I cut a mat from Early Expresso 5 x 5 and adhered to the card base. A panel of Whisper White 4-3/4 x 4-3/4 was put through the Big Shot using the Subtle Embossing folder. The leaves, once cut using the Seasonal Layer Thinlits that coordinates with the Colorful Season stamp set, will be adhered to this panel.

The inside sentiment panel is matted with and Early Expresso mat. The sentiment is from the Thankful Thoughts stamp set. I added the pumpkin and sunflower bucket from the Pleasant Pheasant to the sentiment panel.

Cuts for this card will be at the very end of this post.

Stampin Up’s Beautiful Baubles

September 8, 2018 admin Comments 2 comments

Like I promised yesterday, here is the card showcasing the “Dashing Along DSP”. It turns out to be a rather pretty card. I added the Beautiful Bauble as a piece to it.

My design and inspiration for the card today comes from CAS(E) This Sketch

The card base is Cherry Cobbler with the mats coming from the Dashing Along DSP. The first panel of the Dashing Along DSP is matted using Garden Green. The second panel is matted with Cherry Cobbler.

The Bauble is stamped on Whisper White card stock and colored using Watercolor Pencils and Stampin Blends. The bow is from the Mini Ruffled Ribbon. I tried Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler, Gold, and White ribbon trying to find the one that looked best. How I settled with Lemon Lime Twist I have no idea other than it was the one I felt looked best even though it is not a Christmas color.

I fussy cut stars from the Dashing Along DSP and adhered to the inside sentiment panel. The sentiment is from an old stamp set, but any sentiment could be used that you like.

The greeting on the front was typed and printed on the computer then cut using the Petals and More Thinlits. I colored some Pearl Basic Jewels using the Cherry Cobbler Stampin Blends pen, then popped them on the greeting. I popped 3 clear Pearl Basic Jewels on the red panel of the Dashing Along DSP.O
