Stampin with Shirley G

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Enduring Beauty stamp set, along with Softly Sophisticated 3 D Embossing Folder.  I used the masks that go with the stamp set and loved using them.  They make coloring so easy. When I first colored the mask using Blackberry Bliss ink, I thought I had it much too dark, but after sitting for about 5 hours, it was a different color.  You’re probably wondering why I left it for 5 hours, unexpected friends arrived and we had a great visit.  When I got back to the card creating the colors were different. 

I  am joining the Sketch Saturday Challenge for this card.

I am also joining Seize the Birthday. Their option is Embossing Wet or Dry.

I started with a Moody Mauve card stock card base.  To the base I added a panel of Forever Love Specialty Designer Series Paper using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Several pieces of Forever Love Specialty Designer Series Paper is cut in varying lengths and widths from different pattern of the paper.  The pieces are matted on Very Vanilla card stock. The pieces are adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  After all the pieces are adhered, the card front is embossed on each side of the card using the Softly Sophisticated 3 D Embossing Folder.

Flowers from Stampin’ Up! Enduring Beauty stamp set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a piece of Very Vanilla card stock.  The masks that come with the stamp set are used to color the flowers in certain areas of the flowers. I used Moody Mauve, Blackberry Bliss, Pool Party, and Pretty Peacock ink and Blending Brushes.  The art piece is matted on a piece of Moody Mauve card stock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Gems from Petal Pink & Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems are popped around the card front.  A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles stamp set is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a Very Vanilla card stock scrap, matted on a scrap of Pretty Peacock card stock and popped on the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and a bow created using Crumb Cake twine from Baker’s Twine Essential Pack.

A panel of Forever Love Specialty Designer Series Paper is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink with a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Hooray For Surprises stamp set and flowers from Forever Love Specialty Designer Series Paper is fussy cut and adhered to the corner of the panel.

A Very Vanilla medium envelope gets a panel of Forever Love Specialty Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

It is the last few hours of 2023.  I may make it for this one last card.

This is a CAS of Mary Deatherage’s card.  I have made this before.  You can see all the instructions on Mary’s blog.  She give great instructions.  Click on her name.  I thought it would be a great way to use up DSP as I still have several packages, I have never opened.

These are the challenges I am joining for this card.

https://kraftychickschallenge.blogspot.com/2023/12/krafty-chicks-challenge-696-all.html   –their theme for this challenge is All Occasions.

https://mynbus.blogspot.com/2023/12/nbus-challenge-57.html   Their theme is to use items you have never used before.  That would be my Designer Series Paper.

My card base is Night Of Navy card stock with a Basic White mat to adhered the cut pieces to.  I used Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper to create the stack, cut, shuffle.  It gives you four cards and a pretty quick creation.  I selected two piece of the Designer Series Paper using both sides  so that is four sheets of the Designer Series Paper in all.  Follow this link and it will take you to Mary’s page that shows how to cut the stack, cut, shuffle pieces.

A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Notes of Nature stamp set is stamped in Misty Moonlight ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.  Two strips of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper are adhered on each side of the sentiment.  The piece is then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White medium envelope get a piece of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
