Strong and Beautiful Detailed with Love

April 9, 2019 admin

My card today is created using the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper and the Strong and Beautiful and Detailed with Love stamp sets.

My inspiration today is from the As You See It Challenge–the challenge is Starburst and Lace.

And…

This card is a really easy and simple card. The card base is from Smokey Slate card stock with a Blushing Bride mat for the focal panel of flowers from the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper (DSP).

A length of Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon is wrapped around the focal panel and mat and tied in a bow. Using the Delicate Lace Edgelits a piece is cut to add a bit of lacy edging to the bottom of the floral focal panel. Seems I have used this DSP a lot this week.OK

The greeting is stamped in Smokey Slate on a circle of Whisper White card stock that is matted with another circle that is cut from Smokey Slate card stock. It is popped on the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. Three Basic Adhesive Backed Sequins are added to the greeting on the card front.

A floral panel is cut from the Petal Promenade DSP and the sentiment is stamped in Smokey Slate ink. The sentiment is from the Strong and Beautiful stamp set and is adhered with Liquid Glue to the Blushing Bride mat which is then adhered to the Smokey Slate card base.

Thank you for stopping by today. Hope you love my card as much as I loved making it. Have a blessed day!

You Are Stronger Than Most!

April 6, 2019 admin

My card today is from the Beautiful Promenade stamp set. I was reluctant to buy this set only the DSP but a friend gifted this to me and I am so happy she did. It has turned out to be a favorite.

My design and inspiration come from the CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge for the week, designed by Brian King.

Don’t you think this is a beautiful combination, a panel of the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper (DSP), the Quilting Top Embossing Folder and Delicate Lace Edgelits? I have used this DSP so much that I ordered for a third time — to me, it is simply stunning. Here is a look at the colors and pattern of the Petal Promenade DSP.

Blushing Bride, Fresh Fig, Grapefruit Grove,
Highland Heather, Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink, Sahara Sand, Smokey Slate, Tranquil Tide, Very Vanilla, Whisper White

Can you pick out all the colors in the DSP?

The card base is Mossy Meadow card stock with a panel of Whisper White next that has been embossed using the Quilting Top Embossing Folder.

A panel is cut from the Petal Promenade DSP and then cut on a diagonal. One of the dies from the Delicate Lace Edgelits is used to cut the lace edge that is separating the Whisper White embossed panel and the Petal Promenade panel. It is adhered to the Petal Promenade panel and then to the Whisper White embossed panel using Liquid Glue.

The greeting and flower motif from the Beautiful Promenade stamp set are stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then cut out using one of the Layering Circle Framelits which has a Mossy Meadow mat.

The inside sentiment from the Beautiful Promenade stamp set is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and adhered using Liquid Glue.

Thanks for stopping by today. My hope is that you find encouragement and inspiration in your own creations. Have a blessed day!

Lots of Happy with Tea Together

April 4, 2019 admin

I have been wanting to make a card using the teapot for the vase for a while and I finally got to it. My card is created using the Tea Together stamp set and the Lots of Happy card kit. It was fun making and arranging the flowers.

My inspirations comes from the Paper Players Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge. I always enjoying doing Tic-Tac-Toe

And … The Sisterhood of Crafters Celebrate Spring.

Such a pretty little card starts with a Thick Whisper White card stock base. A panel from the Floral Romance Designer Series Paper is adhered over the Whisper White card base using Glue Dots on each corner and in the middle of the panel.

The flowers are colored using Stampin’ Blends Pens in Light Balmy Blue, Light Real Red, Light Highland Heather, Light Mango Melody, Light and Dark Granny Apple Green and the Color Lifter.

Using my paper snips, I clipped and snipped until the flowers were right for arranging the same as you would real flowers. The flowers are held together with many Glue Dots they are then attached to the teapot using more Glue Dots. The teapot has been embossed using the Softly Falling Textured Impression Embossing Folder (TIEF).

The teapot of flowers is then popped on the beautiful Floral Romance DSP panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. A single rose is popped on the bottom of the teapot as if it has fallen from the pot, you can even see the empty spot left by it falling from the pot. Several enamel sequins from the Metallic Sequin Assortment are scattered over the Floral Romance panel. Can you believe, I could not find a stamp that said Happy Easter, so I went to my trusty computer and created one.

The inside sentiment is stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink on a panel of the Floral Romance DSP, which just happens to be a beautiful piece of vellum.

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you find inspirations for your own creations. Have a blessed day!

Beautiful Promenade

March 15, 2019 admin

My card today is created using the Beautiful Promenade stamp set and the coordinating DSP. It makes for a lovely card. It is for a strong young woman who had an accident when she was 19 and became paralyzed from the waist down. She is a very productive, active life and is an encouragement to all who meet her. She certainly an inspiration when we complain about little day to day ache and pains and say oh I feel too bad to do that today. She carrys on and works long, long hours each day to see her dream fulfilled.

My sketch inspirations comes from the Tuesday Morning Sketches Challenge for this week.

The card recipe:

Start with a panel of Petal Pink card stock for the card base.
Cut a 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ panel and emboss using the Subtle Textured Impression Embossing Folder.
Cut a 2-1/2″ x 3-3/4″ panel of Blackberry Bliss card stock and a panel 1-1/8″ x 3-1/8″. These are mats for the Petal Promenade DSP.
Cut a 2-3/8″ x 3-5/8″ panel of Petal Promenade DSP and a 1″ x 3″ panel of the same DSP.
Adhered the Petal Promenade DSP to the Blackberry Bliss card stock using Liquid Glue.
Cut a 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″ square from the reverse side of the Petal Promenade DSP that you cut previously.
Stamp in the upper corner using Mossy Meadow ink one of the flowers from the Beautiful Promenade stamp set.
then stamp in Fresh Fig ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock the same flower.
Stamp the greeting in the lower left corner using Blackberry Bliss Ink.
Fussy cut just the Fresh Fig flower.
Pop the flower using Mini Stamping Dimensionals that have been cut in half over the Mossy Green flower in the upper corner of the 2-12″ x 2-1/2″ square.
Cut a 2-5/8″ square from the Blackberry Bliss card stock. This is the mat for the art piece with the flower and the greeting.
Pop 2 pearls from the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls onto the art piece.
Adhere all the panels the way they show in the picture onto the Subtle embossed panel.
Adhere the Petal Pink panel to the card base.
Scatter three more pearls over the Petal Pink embossed panel after all the other smaller panels have been adhered.
The bow is made using Fresh Fig Mini Ruffle ribbon and adhered with a Glue Dot.
The inside sentiment is stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink on a panel of Whisper White that is matted on a panel of Blackberry Bliss card stock.
A different flower from the Beautiful Promenade stamp set is stamped in Mossy Meadow in the right corner of the sentiment panel.

Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you like the card!

Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop “Celebrate Spring”

March 12, 2019 admin

Welcome everyone—it’s that time — the second Tuesday of the month—that means it is time for our Inkin’ Krew monthly blog hop. It is going to be exciting to see what all the other team members have created. I know you are going to see lots of ideas and inspiration for your own creations. Our theme for March is “Celebrate Spring”! Now on to the hop! Enjoy!!

My card is created with the You’re Inspiring Stamp Set. Since our theme is “Celebrate Spring” this stamp set is so appropriate being it has daffodils.

The design comes from Inspire Create Challenge #038 for this week.

The card base is Lemon Lime Twist card stock. Lemon Lime Twist will probably be retired this year so I am trying to use it up before that time. A panel of Bermuda Bay card stock has been embossed with the Softly Falling Embossing Folder and adhered to the card base with Liquid Glue.

The inspirations and design comes from Inspire Create Challenge

Two mats have been cut for the focal panel which is cut from a panel of the Botanical Butterfly DSP, one is Lemon Lime Twist, the other Basic Black card stock. They are all adhered together using Liquid Glue.

A Whisper White circle is cut using a Layering Circle Die and adhered to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The daffodils are stamped on thick Whisper White card stock and colored using Pineapple Punch Light and Old Olive Light Stampin’ Blends. They are then popped onto the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Three pearls from the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls set are scattered over the card front. The greeting is stamped in Bermuda Bay on a scrap of Whisper White and matted with a scrap of Lemon Lime Twist card stock.
