Stampin’ Up! In Your Words Thinking of You Card

Stampin’ Up! In Your Words Thinking of You Card

The card I am sharing today is created using cards from the Stampin’ Up! Hand Penned Memories & More Card Pack.  It made for an easy but elegant card.  I also used the Tasteful Textile 3-D Embossing Folder.

The Just Add Ink Challenge — theme Just Add Lines is the inspiration for the lines between the six pieces that create the art piece.

Inspiration for the card design is from the Just Us Girls Challenge — the theme is 6 of Anything.  My card has 6 strips that create an art piece.

Start with a card base of Highland Heather card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3-D Embossing Folder.  Adhere this panel to the card base.

I picked a card from the Hand Penned Memories & More Card Pack and cut it into six pieces.  I matted the six piece on a panel of Basic Black card stock creating the lines for the Just Add Ink challenge.

After all the pieces are matted on the Basic Black panel a length of Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon is wrapped around the panel and then Crumb Cake twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack is wrapped around the middle of the Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon.  A greeting from the Hand Penned Memories & More Card Pack is popped over the ribbon.  A few loops are made using the Crumb Cake twine and adhered under one end of the greeting along with a piece of the Gorgeous Grape ribbon.

Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels are popped around the card front.

A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! In Your Words Stamp Set is stamped in Highland Heather ink on a panel from the Hand Penned Memories & More Card Pack that matches the card front.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of Hand Penned DSP adhered to the envelope flap.  The Hand Penned DSP coordinates with the card front.

Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow

Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Stamp Set and the Meadow Dies.  

The inspiration for today’s card comes from the Sunday Stamps Challenge.  My colors are Blackberry Bliss, Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Soft Succulent, and Shaded Spruce.  I guess I used them all.

Emboss two panels of Basic White card stock, one using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. Before embossing the other, crop flowers from the panel using dies from the Meadow Dies.  Adhere the Tasteful Textile panel to the Basic White card base.  Cut a portion of the Timber Embossed panel giving it the shape it has in the photo. .  Pop this panel over the Tasteful Textile panel using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Create ink splatter over the panel using Blackberry Bliss ink.

On a panel of Basic White card stock stamp the large bouquet of flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Quite Meadow Stamp Set using Tuxedo Memento Black ink.  Color the flowers using a Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Marker.  Fussy cut the flowers for later use.  Bows are made from Blackberry Bliss Stripe Ribbon and Linen Thread and popped on the bottom of the flowers using a glue dot.

The flowers that were cropped from the Basic White panel before the panel was embossed using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder, color using Pumpkin Pie, Blackberry Bliss, Shaded Spruce, Soft Succulent and the Color Lifter Stampin’ Blends Marker.  After coloring pop the flowers back into the negative space.  Pop Mat Black Dots in the center of the Pumpkin Pie and Blackberry Bliss flowers.  Stamp the greeting in Blackberry Bliss ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock and crop using a die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.  Pop in the upper corner using a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional.

The sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Sale-A-Bration’s Host Set In Your Words is stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.  I really like the sentiments in this stamp set, I am sure I will be using it often.  You can have it free by placing any party or personal order over $300.   Flowers are stamped and colored using a Blackberry Bliss Stampin’ Blends Marker.  Ink splatters are put around the flowers.

Strips of Regal and Brights 2021-2023 6″ x 6″ DSP are added to the envelope flap in the colors of the flowers on the card front.

Stampin’ Up! Brilliant Wings

Stampin’ Up! Brilliant Wings

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Brilliant Wings Dies along with the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! In Your Words Stamp Set. The card is a CAS(E)  of one Mary Deatherage sent me.  I even used her greeting as it so appropriate for this card and I do not have the stamp set it is in.  I need to create five more sympathy cards.  In the past 2-1/2  we have lost six family members and friends.  This card is for our friend who lost his wife and daughter in a plane crash in Alaska last Thursday.  It was an effort getting it made and I hope it will be easier getting the other done.

My inspiration comes from two challenges today, one is the Fusion Card Challenge.  I chose the butterfly on the kitty’s nose.

The other is the Hand Stamped Sentiments Inspiration Challenge.  It has butterflies and the colors I used to create the background.

The first thing on the menu was to color a panel of Basic White card stock using Blending Brushes and the following inks: Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Misty Moonlight, Polished Pink,  and Old Olive inks.

I took a panel of Basic White card stock and using the Stampin’ Up! Brilliant Dies cropped three butterflies from the Basic White panel.  Once cropped I popped the negative portion of the panel over the panel of Basic White card stock that I had colored using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.  The cropped butterflies were then popped back into the negative spaces using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals that I cut in half to fit the solid spots on the butterflies.

The greeting from Mary’s card is popped in the left corner. 2021-2023 In Color Jewels are popped around the card front.  After all this, the butterfly panel is adhered to a Basic White card stock base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Sentiments from the Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set and the In Your Words Stamp Set are stamped in Old Olive ink on the Basic White panels.  A butterfly is cropped, then popped back to the negative space.

Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Friendship

Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Friendship

Happy Thursday!  Have a good day.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Friendship Stamp Set and the Inspired Thoughts for the inside sentiment.

Freshly Made Sketches Challenge is the inspiration for this design today.

I started with a card base of Basic White card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder. 

Four strips of Basic White card stock are cut and colored using Blending Brushes and Misty Moonlight and Soft Succulent ink.  Using a Water Painter, water is flicked over each strip and drying using a heat tool.  The panels are then adhered over the embossed panel.

A tree from the Beauty of Friendship Stamp Set is stamped in Soft Succulent ink for the tree and Soft Suede ink for the tree trunk.  It is cropped and popped over the narrow panel using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.  This panel is then adhered to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A greeting is cropped using a card from the Hand Penned Memories & More Card Pack.  Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels are scattered around the card front.

The inside sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set.  It is stamped in Soft Succulent ink on the Basic White card stock panel.  A  tree is stamped using Soft Succulent and Crumb Cake ink.

Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms

Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms

Happy Wednesday!  If you have been keeping up with Mary and Amy it looks as if they are having loads of fun, and special treats to eat.  They well deserve this fun trip.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Stamp Set.  It is a carryover to the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.  I also use Love You Always DSP, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Meadow Moments Embossing Folder along the the card stock.

My color inspiration comes from the Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge.  I have pink cherry blossoms.

The theme for Make My Monday Challenge is Sympathy.  I have made one with the greeting Thinking of You and a lovely sentiment inside.

This will be a fun challenge as it is a fun fold card challenge — Creative Creases Challenge.

The card base is Sahara Sand card stock.  This is a fun fold card so there are two score lines to fold. On the front panel, a panel of Blushing Bride card stock is embossed using the Meadow Moments Embossing Folder, then adhered to the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Two different design panels from Love You Always DSP is adhered to the card base.  You can see from the card above where the DSP is adhered.

Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies two different size panels are cropped using two of the dies.  I believe it is the largest and next to the largest.  One is from Sahara Sand card stock the other Basic White card stock and this one has the sentiment stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. 

Cherry blossoms are also stamped in the corner and colored using Rococo Rose and Mint Macaron  Stampin’ Blends Markers, along with the color lifter marker.  Mine was a bit dry, so I poured a little alcohol in a glass cup and dipped the marker in it then dropped the alcohol on the images of the cherries to get the color I desired.

A loopy bow is made using Basic White twine and popped on one of the flowers stems using Multipurpose Glue  Several sequins are placed around the entire card.

Cherry blossoms are also stamped on the panel of Basic White card stock that is adhered to the back panel.  They are colored with the same markers as the other blossoms.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of  Love You Always DSP applied to the envelope flap.
