Painted Seasons with So Hoppy Together

Painted Seasons with So Hoppy Together

Today you get a sneak peek of one of the new Sale-A-Bration goodies, Painted Seasons DSP available February 15.  I am also using the So Hoppy Together stamp set, another FREEBIE with a $50 purchase.

Inspiration and design come from the Paper Craft Crew Challenge.  I’ve chosen the bottom row—Something New, No Hearts, and Texture.  My something new is the new Designer Series Paper that will be available  February 15, no hearts in sight and my frog has texture.  He’s a cutie! 

The card base is Crumb Cake card stock with mats of Poppy Parade and Lemon Lime Twist card stock.  The panels are adhered using Liquid Glue.

A background panel is cut using the new Painted Seasons Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the Painted Seasons bundle that is available February 15.  Three strands of Linen Thread is wrapped around the panel and secured in the back with Glue Dots.

A circle has been cut from Crumb Cake card stock using the Layering Circle Framelits Dies.  The frog and butterfly from the So Hoppy Together stamp set are stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a square of Whisper White card stock.  They are colored using Lemon Lime Twist and Poppy Parade Stamping Write Markers.  The frog and butterfly are cut using the dies that are available March 1.

After the frog and butterfly are colored they are popped on the  Lemon Lime Twist lily pad which is cut using the Hop on Around Framelits Dies available March 1.  The lily pad is then adhered on the Crumb Cake circle and embossed with the Subtle Textured Impression Embossing Folder (TIEF).  Gingham Gala sequins are scattered over the Crumb Cake Circle and then the circle is popped on the Painted Seasons background.

The inside sentiment from the stamp set Well Said is stamped in Crumb Cake on a panel of Whisper White that has been matted on a panel of Poppy Parade card stock.  A border is added at the bottom from the Painted Seasons DSP.

That’s my card for today, I hope you like it and find encouragement and inspiration for your own creations.  Have a blessed day!

All My Love with Part of My Story

All My Love with Part of My Story

Guess everyone watched the Super Bowl!  Did your team win?

My card today uses the Part of My Story and Forever Lovely stamp sets along with the All My Love Designer Series Paper (DSP)

The House that Stamps Built is where my design comes from today.  I decided to play their challenge. 

 

  1. Crumb cake card stock is the card base with a Balmy Blue card stock mat that is embossed with the Subtle TIEF.
  2. The three long panels are cut from the All My Love Designer Series Paper (DSP)
  3. The mat for the three long panels is Crumb Cake. 
  4. The All My Love panels are adhered to the Crumb Cake mats using Liquid Multipurpose Glue.
  5. The panels are then adhered to the Balmy Blue mat using Liquid Glue.
  6. The Balmy Blue mat is popped on the Crumb Cake base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  7. The focal circle is cut from Crumb Cake card stock using a Layering Circle Framelits Dies
  8. The greeting from the Forever Lovely stamp set is stamped in Lovely Lipstick Ink.  The greeting has been masked so that only part of the greeting is stamped on the circle with the remaining word “forever” being stamped in Lovely Lipstick on the Balmy Blue mat.  The word “forever” looks like it has been stamped in Fresh Fig ink instead of Lovely Lipstick.
  9. The two intertwined hearts are cut from All My Love DSP using the heart die from the Sunshine Wishes Framelits Dies
  10. The hearts are popped and glued over the Crumb Cake circle.
  11. Several Pearl Basic Jewels that have been colored with a Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Write Marker are scattered over the front of the card.  This finishes the card front.
  12. The inside sentiment from the stamp set Part of My Story is stamped in Lovely Lipstick ink on a panel of Whisper White cardstock.
  13. The art is from the stamp set Forever Lovely and is stamped in Lovely Lipstick ink also.

That’s my card for today.  I hope you like it and find it encouraging and inspiring.  Have a blessed day.

Stampin’ Up! Animal Outing

Stampin’ Up! Animal Outing

Welcome, this cold day in Georgia!  I know our cold is nothing compared to the folks in the Midwest.  You are really having cold, freezing,  and potentially life-threatening weather.  I hope everyone has a warm spot.  I think of the homeless and know some are out in this freezing weather.  Everyone have a safe and warm day.  Stay inside and make cards.

My inspiration and design today comes from the Global Design Project.  Check it out!

The card base is Balmy Blue card stock embossed with the Subtle TIEF.

The Animal Expedition DSP which is matted using a panel of Shaded Spruce card stock is used for the wide banner across the card.  A length of Linen Thread is wrapped around the banner 3 times and two leaves from the Butterfly Elements (free during Sale-A-Bration with a $50 purchase).  One of the leaves is colored using a Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Write Marker.  The banner is adhered to the card base using Liquid Glue.

The focal piece is cut from a panel of the Animal Expedition DSP using the Layering Oval Framelits Dies and matted on Shaded Spruce card stock using a larger die to cut it.  Get Well from the Well Said stamp set is stamped so it looks as if the giraffe is saying it.  It is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink.  This is popped over the banner using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  A few sequins are scattered around the card front to give a little bling.  That does it for the card front.

The inside sentiment is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White that has a border cut from the Animal Expedition DSP.  Shaded Spruce card stock is used as a mat.

Thank you for stopping by today! My wish for you is to find inspiration and encouragement for your own creations.  Have a blessed day!

Well Said with All My Love and Butterfly Gala

Well Said with All My Love and Butterfly Gala

My card today focuses on the stamp sets,  Butterfly Gala and Part of My Story. I have also used All My Love Designer Specialty Paper (DSP).

The inspiration and design for my card come from the TGIF Challenge, thank you TGIF for showcasing all the beautiful Designer Specialty Paper. I am also playing along at Sunday Stamps. The colors for Sundays Stamps are gorgeous and I was happy to find the challenge appeared in my inbox before I got this posted so that I could include it.

 

The card base is Lovely Lipstick.

The next layer is a panel of Whisper White card stock cut using the largest of the Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies. This is the mat for the panels of All My Love DSP

A 2-1/8″ x 3-1/2″ panel of the red stripe DSP from All My Love DSP is cut and attached to the Whisper White panel.

Two 1-7/8″ x 3-1/8″ panels from the All My Love DSP
are cut using the Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies They are adhered to the red DSP panel using Liquid Glue

 

A small doily is cut using the Doily Builder Thinlits Dies. I put glue on a small square of sponge and smeared it around the back of the doily. I find this the easiest way to adhere an intricate piece when you forget to use the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets. The heart in the middle of the doily is fussy cut from one of the scraps from the All My Love DSP and popped on using a Stampin’ Dimensional.  The greeting is from Butterfly Gala stamp set

 

The inside sentiment is from the stamp set Part of My Story. The hearts are stamped in Lovely Lipstick and are from the Forever Lovely stamp set. The pink heart is cut free-hand using a square of the All My Love DSP.

That’s it for today. I hope you like my card and that you find inspiration and encouragement for your own creations.

Climbing Roses with Botanical Butterfly DSP

Climbing Roses with Botanical Butterfly DSP

In creating my card for today I used the Climbing Roses stamp set and Botanical Butterfly DSP.  This was a fun card to make, but then they all are fun, what am I saying, but I do love butterflies.  My inspiration and design come from the challenge this week at Freshly Made Sketches.

I started with a Basic Black card base.  You can see the layers in the picture above and the ones below.  First is a Highland Heather panel layer, next is a panel from the Botanical Butterfly DSP for the next layer.  Two butterflies are colored on this panel using Light Old Olive, Light Highland Heather, and Light Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends.  The next layer is another Highland Heather panel that is the mat for the Whisper White panel that has the greeting stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink.   The greeting is from the Climbing Roses stamp set.  This panel has two fussy cut butterflies from the Botanical Butterfly DSP adhered with Glue Dots.  The long vertical panel is Highland Heather for the mat and Whisper White for the art piece.  The butterflies for the art piece has been fussy cut from the Botanical Butterfly DSP also and adhered with Glue Dots to the Whisper White panel.  To me, they do not look fussy cut from a panel of the Botanical Butterfly DSP but stamped and colored with watercolor pens or Stampin’ Blend Markers.  Using a black fine point pen (non-Stampin’ Up!) just a regular pen you write with, I made dots on this panel.  After all the panels were adhered using Liquid Glue the final thing was to pop the finished panel on the Basic Black base.  

 The inside sentiment is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on the label made from one of the dies in the Climbing Rose bundle.  It is adhered to a panel from the Botanical Butterfly DSP that has been matted on a panel of Highland Heather card stock.  The butterflies on the Botanical Butterfly DSP panel are colored using Light Balmy Blue, Highland Heather, and Old Olive Stampin’ Blend Markers.  A Whisper White panel is adhered above the sentiment panel for a note whether it birthday, thinking of you, or sympathy that you are using it for, you will be able to have a spot for a personal note.

Thank you for stopping by.  Here’s hoping you find encouragement and inspiration for your creations.  Have a blessed day!
