Stampin’ Up! Angels of Peace Card

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Angels of Peace Stamp Set, along with the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder.

I am joining the TGIF Challenge even though I did not use pastels, do not have them, but made my own pastels using ink and a water painter.

For cutting and scoring instructions, you can go to Lisa Curcio’s diagram. She shows a great diagram of the scoring & cutting.

Start with a card base of Basic White card stock, cut at 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2.
Line up the top of the cardstock on the 5-1/2″ side at the 2-3/4″ mark.
Cut from 1-1/4″ to 6- 1/8″ using the ruler on the bar on the trimmer.
Turn the cardstock and score at 1-1/4″, 2″ 3-1/8″, 4-1/4″ all the way across the card stock, and, 6-1/8″ cut all to the cut line except the 4-1/4″

This is how the card looks once it has been cut and scored.

For the background of the large angel, I cup a piece of Whimsy & Wonder DSP 2-3/4″ x 2-1/2″ and a piece the same size from a panel of Basic White that I had embossed using the Merry Melody 3-D Embossing Folder. I had given the panel a color wash using Polished Pink ink and a Water Painter. The gold trim is the leftover from cropping other images. Makes for a nice trim.

The background pieces for the small angels are again Whimsy & Wonder DSP cut at 1-3/4″ x 2-1/2″. Trees are punched from Basic White card stock using the Evergreen Border Punch and adhered beside the small angels.

The angels are created using images from the Stampin’ Up! Angels of Peace Stamp Set. They are stamped on Basic White card stock with Versa Mark ink and Gold Embossing Powder sprinkled over the stamping and heat set using a heat tool. The large angel and one of the small ones are then colored using a color wash made from Polished Pink ink and a water painter. The second small angel is colored using a color wash of Misty Moonlight ink and a Water Painter. They are popped on the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A greeting from Stampin’ Up! For Unto Us Stamp Set is stamped in Misty Moonlight ink on a scrap of Basic White cardstock and fussy cut and popped on the card front.

The sentiment panel is matted on a panel of Misty Moonlight card stock and a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! For Unto Us Stamp Set is stamped in Misty Moonlight ink on the Basic White panel. An angel is adhered to the bottom of the panel.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP applied to the envelope flap using liquid glue.

Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals Noel Christmas Card

I am sharing another Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals card today. It is amazing the different designs and looks each card that I have created using the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set has. This one has a white poinsettia along with Heartwarming Hugs DSP as the background panel.

Inspiration is from Festive Friday’s challenge. I am choosing red, green, ribbon. I have a check not plaid.

The design inspiration is from the Paper Players Challenge.

My card base is Cherry Cobbler card stock with a Basic White card stock mat for the Heartwarming Hugs DSP.

To create the poinsettia, I stamped a panel of Basic White card stock with Versa Mark using an image from the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set. Next, I sprinkled Cherry Cobbler Embossing Powder over the Versa Mark and heat embossed using the heat tool. The three layers are put together using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to give the poinsettia more dimension.

Panels of Heartwarming Hugs DSP are cut and adhered over the Basic White mat. Before the Basic White mat is adhered to the card base Silver Thread is wrapped around the middle of the panel to cover the place the DSPs are joined.

The poinsettia and twigs and sprigs are arranged with the Silver Thread and adhered to the DSP using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Glue Dots, and Stampin’ Dimensionals. Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels (available January 2022) are popped in the center of the poinsettia and around the card front.

A sentiment from the Merriest Moments Stamp Set is stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink on the Basic White panel, holly leaves and berries from the same stamp set are stamped in Garden Green ink and Cherry Cobbler ink in the lower right corner.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of Heartwarming Hugs DSP applied to the envelope flap using liquid glue.

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments Christmas Card

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments Stamp Set and the Merriest Frames Embossing Folder. This set comes with three pieces: the Merriest Moments Stamp Set, the Hybrid Embossing Folder, and the 16 Dies included in the Hybrid Embossing Folder and you get all these dies even if you purchase the embossing folder without the stamp set. What does Hybrid mean, it indicates this embossing folder has a coordinating die that can be run through with the embossing folder, at the same time! There are two different dies that you can put through the embossing machine that enclose in the embossing folder.

The challenge I am joining today is the Tic, Tac, Toe Challenge. I choose across the bottom, die-cut, sequins/gems, red.

I started by embossing a panel of Basic White card stock using the folder. The picture shows two ways of doing this. You can emboss a panel of card stock and do no cropping or you can crop using the dies enclosed in the embossing folder. I did the second one for this card as you will see as we go on.

You can see how the die is placed around the embossed piece if you forget to enclose it in the embossing folder before you emboss it. The piece on the right side is cropped using the more intricate die.

This is the die that crops the more intricate piece. The label die can be used to cut the label out of the center as you crop the other piece.

I used this die to crop the background piece for the embossed piece that has been cropped using the intricate die to do so. You can see the background piece and how it fits in the next picture.

I cropped the background piece from a panel of Tiding of Christmas 6″ x 6″ DSP. Glue is adhered to the middle of the cropped piece so the foliage would have a bit of movement. It is then adhered to a panel of Evening Evergreen card stock that has also been embossed using the Hybrid Embossing Folder, it has not been cropped so you can see the snowflakes around the edges.

My design is thanks to several people from Pinterest, among them is our leader, Amy Koenders, who had achieved a great milestone, one we all aspire to, she now joins the elite ranks of those who has achieved the 1M or more in sales. Along with Amy, there is Mary Deatherage, Jaimie Barbarczy, Jenny Hayward, Australia, I watched several of her videos, Diana Gibbs, and many more. Thank you ladies for your ideas and help in learning how to use all these dies and the embossing folder. I suppose that is why it has taken me so long to make a card with this set, I have been watching videos.

The poinsettia is stamped in Real Red ink on a panel of Basic White along with holly leaves stamped in Soft Succulent ink and the other greenery is stamped in Pear Pizzazz ink. Twigs and stems are cropped from Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent card stock using a die from the Poinsettia Dies. The center of seeds in the center of the poinsettia are stamped in Memento Black ink.

I stamped two of the large poinsettias and one small and layered them using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. All are arranged in the corner of the card front over the embossed piece. Holly leaves and berries are popped in the opposite corner at the top. Three red Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels are popped on the card front. The greeting is stamped in Real Red ink a, fussy cut and popped on the card front with a Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of Tidings of Christmas 6′ x 6″ DSP applied to the envelope flap using liquid glue.

Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals Christmas Card

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petal Stamp Set.

I am joining the Tic, Tac, Toe Challenge for today. I choose the bottom row across.

Start with a card base of Soft Succulent card stock, add a layer of Evening Evergreen card stock, a layer of Real Red, and last different panels of Tidings of Christmas DSP, all adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A length of gold ribbon is adhered between the two different panels.

On Real Red card stock stamp using Versa Mark, a poinsettia from the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petal Stamp Set, sprinkle Gold Embossing Powder and heat set using your heat tool. I fussy cut the petal layers as using the dies would not have cropped as close as I wanted. From a panel of Soft Succulent card stock, leaves are stamped in Versa Mark, sprinkled with Gold Embossing Powder and heat set also. Soft Succulent ink is applied to the edges of the leaves. Sprigs and berries are cropped from a panel of Gold Foil. The poinsettia layers are adhered using Glue Dots. Arrange the poinsettia and leaves, take a picture for reference, then adhere using Glue Dot and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Add a few Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels and a greeting from the October Paper Pumpkin stamped in Evening Evergreen on a scrap of Basic White card stock, fussy cut and popped on using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Adhere another poinsettia to a panel of Basic White card stock, this is for your inside panel. Adhere to the card stock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Apply a panel of Tidings of Christmas DSP to the flap of a medium white envelope.

Stampin’ Up! For Unto Us Peaceful Christmas

The card I am sharing today is created using elements from the October 2021 Paper Pumpkin. The silver trees across the middle of the screen is one of the envelopes from the Paper Pumpkin.

The design inspiration for my card is from the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

We start with a Basic White card stock base with a panel of Real Red and Garden Green card stock as a border. The Garden Green panel is cropped using a die from the Eden Dies before it is adhered to the card base.

A panel of Basic White is embossed using a die from the Wintry 3-D Embossing Folder. This panel is then popped over the Real Red panel and adhered with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Trees that were fussy cut from an envelope in the October Paper Pumpkin Kit is adhered across the middle of the card front.

A greeting from the Paper Pumpkin is stamped in Shaded Spruce ink and popped over the trees. Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels are popped around the card front.

A panel of Real Red card stock is cropped with the same die as the one used on the card front. It becomes the mat for the Basic White panel that Garden Green ink & Real Red ink are used to stamp the sentiment from Stampin’ Up! For Unto Us and Poinsettia Petals Stamp Sets.

I stamped in Real Red ink the flap of a medium white envelope with a greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals Stamps Set.
