Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Encouragement Card

Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Encouragement Card

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Stamp Set as the focal stamp set.  I also used Stampin’ Up! In Your Words Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up Hand Penned Stamp Set as you will see later in the post.  My embossing folder is Tasteful Textile.

I have three challenges I am entering for today.

Inspiration for the design comes from the Sketch Saturday Challenge.   

I am entering these two challenges also as they have leaves for the challenge.  Inspirational Designers Choice Autumn Leaves.  

The Male Room Challenge is Nature’s Bounty and I can see leaves as being Nature’s Bounty.

I started by embossing a panel of Basic White card stock using the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder. I added it to the Basic White card stock card base by adhering using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

For the two circles that are part of the Sketch Saturday Challenge I cropped one from Basic White card stock and another one from a Gold Foil Sheet.  To the white one, I added the greeting, then all the leaves were arranged around the two circles and finally adhered using Glue Dots and Mini Stampin; Dimensionals.  A splash of dots is stamped around the art piece.  I can’t tell which stamp set the splash belongs in, I have kept it on a stampin’ block so long I can’t remember where it belongs.  I am going to have to go through my stamps to find its home. Holiday Rhinestone Jewels are scattered around the card front.

A greeting from the Hand Penned Petals Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink onto the Basic White card stock circle.  The leaves are then adhered.  A small bow is made using Crumb Cake twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack.

 

The sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! In Your Words Stamp Set (this is a Sale-a-bration item and is only available until the end of September so get it while it is available.  The sentiment is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on the Basic White card stock panel.  Leaves are adhered to the lower corner.

A medium Basic White envelope gets leaves that match the card front, adhered to the envelope flap.

If you would like to create this card all the products used and the card cuts are at the end of this post.

Stampin’ Up! Seascapes Hello Card

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Seascapes Stamp Set & Dies.  I also used the Tasteful Textile 3-D Embossing Folder.

My challenge for the day is from the Use Your Stuff Challenge.   

I started with a Basic White card stock card base, then added a panel of Pacific Point card stock for the background for the Tasteful Textile embossed panel that holds all the art pieces.

From a piece of the Ombre Specialty Paper crop a sea horse and fish.  Also, crop a sea horse from a piece of Pacific Point card stock.  Emboss a panel of Basic White card stock using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.  Crop seaweed from a small piece of 2021-2023  Incolor Shimmer Vellum.

Stampin’ Up! Forever Grapevine

Stampin’ Up! Forever Grapevine

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Forever Grapevine Stamp Set.  I also used the Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set for a greeting.   

Design inspiration for today comes from the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.

The card base is Basic White card stock with a panel of the same used to crop the two triangles using the Stitched Triangles Dies for each corner of the sketch design. The panel the triangles are cropped from is popped after having a greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set stamped in Highland Heather ink.

On the tringles, a grapevine from the Forever Grapevine Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored using Granny Apple Green and Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends Markers.  The triangles are popped back into the negative space left from the cropping using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.   Three pearls from the Pastels Pearls collection are popped around the greeting.

The Basic White sentiment panel has a sentiment from the Forever Grapevine Stamp Set stamped in Highland Heather ink.  The grapevines in each corner are stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored the same as the front panels.  It is then adhered to the card base.

A medium Basic White envelope gets the envelope flap gets a grapevine stamped on the flap and colored.

Stampin’ Up! Hand Penned Sending Hugs

Stampin’ Up! Hand Penned Sending Hugs

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Handed Penned Stamp Set, the Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Stamp Set for the inside sentiment, the Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts Stamp Set for the greeting and the Stampin’ Up! Brilliant Wings Dies for the butterflies.

 I am playing along with Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenge.  Anything Goes is the theme.

I started with a Highland Heather card stock card base.  A panel of Basic White card stock is stamped in Versa Mark ink and Gold Embossing powder is sprinkled over the ink.  It is then heat embossed to set the Gold Embossing Powder.

The flowers and leaves are watercolored using Polished Pink and Evening Evergreen inks with a Water Painter.  After coloring, an oval is cropped from the art piece then place back into the negative space using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Two butterflies are cropped using dies from the Brilliant Wings Dies.  They are popped on the card front using Glue Dots.  Three jewels from the 2021-2022 Incolor Jewels are popped around the card front.  The greeting is stamped in Evening Evergreen ink using stamps from the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set.  I fussy cut around each word and popped on the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A sentiment from the Pansy Patch Stamp Set is stamped in Evening Evergreen ink on the Basic White panel.  Flowers from the Hand Penned Stamp Set are stamped using Tuxedo Memento Black in and then colored.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the plaid DSP from the Hand Penned DSP adhered to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts

Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts

The card I am sharing today is created using the Peaceful Place DSP and the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set.

The sketch challenge with Tuesday Morning Sketches is my inspiration for this card.

This is a simple card to make, also easy, and took only a short while to put the pieces together.  It was all cutting and embossing except for the greeting from the Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set.

The card base is Smoky Slate card stock with a panel of Basic Black card stock embossed using a Stitched With Whimsy Die and popped on the card base after the other layers are added. A panel of Peaceful Place DSP is adhered over the Basic Black panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

From a different panel of the Peaceful Place DSP a square of the DSP is cut and then embossed using a small die from the Stitched With Whimsy Dies.  This small square is matted on a square of Basic Black and popped on the plaid panel using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.  A length of Real Red Sheer Ribbon is placed behind the panel before it is popped on the plaid panel.  Cute Star Sequins are popped around the trees.

Another panel of the Peaceful Place DSP is cut and a little of it is fussy cut before being matted onto a Basic Black mat.  It is then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A sentiment will be added later.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the plaid DSP from the Peaceful Place DSP adhered to the envelope flap.
