Amazing Life with All My Love

Amazing Life with All My Love

My card today comes from the Forever Lovely stamp set and  Amazing Life stamp set.

My inspiration and sketch design comes from the Fab Friday 155 Challenge.

Here’s the recipe for this simple, easy card;

  1. Cut a panel of Whisper White card stock 4-1/4″ x 11″.
  2. Score at 5-1/2″ and fold card.
  3. Cut a panel  4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ of the red from the All Is Lovely Designer Specialty Paper. You will cut another panel from the reverse side.  Available in the 2019 Occasions catalog.
  4. Adhere to the Whisper White card base using Liquid Glue.
  5. Turn the piece of All Is Lovely DSP over and cut a panel 3-1/4″ x 5-1/2″.
  6. Adhere with Liquid Glue to the red panel.
  7. From another piece of the DSP fussy cut the three flowers and pop them in the appropriate place on the flower panel.
  8. Stamp the greeting  from Amazing Life in Lovely Lipstick ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock.
  9. Use one of the Rectangle Stitched  Framelits Dies to cut the greeting out by running it through the Big Shot.
  10. Pop it on the finished card from using Stampin Dimensionals.  The card front is finished. Now on to the inside sentiment.
  11. Cut a panel of Lovely Lipstick card stock 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″.
  12. Adhere to the Whisper White card base using Liquid Glue.
  13. Cut a panel of Whisper White card stock 4″ x 5-1/4″.
  14. Use one of the dies from the Lovely Flowers Edgelits Dies to cut the roses by running it through the Big Shot.
  15. Stamp the sentiment in Lovely Lipstick ink on the Whisper White panel with the roses.
  16. Now adhere the panel to the Lovely Lipstick mat using Liquid Glue.

That the card for today.  Hope you find inspiration and encouragement for your own creations.

Be Blessed!

Floral Romance – It’s Sure To Be A Fun Day

Floral Romance – It’s Sure To Be A Fun Day

I used the Floral Romance DSP and the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set to create the card I am sharing today.  It was easy, as you will see, card to create.

The sketch design and inspiration comes from the As You See It Challenge for this week.

The card starts with a Blackberry Bliss base.  There is a Blackberry Bliss mat also.  It has been embossed using the Lace Dynamic  Textured  Impressions Embossing Folder.  A Whisper White mat has been cut for the Floral Romance DSP panel that is the focal point of the card.  This panel is adhered to the Whisper White panel using Liquid Glue and then adhered to the Blackberry Bliss embossed panel again using Liquid Glue.  A  Whisper White label is cut using one of the dies from the Wonderful Floral Framelits Dies. The greeting from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set is stamped on the label using Blackberry Bliss Ink.  Blackberry Bliss Nature’s Twine is wound through the cut-outs on the label and tied in a bow.  A few leaves are cut using the dies in the Wonderful Floral Framelits Dies and adhered behind the label with Glue Dots.  The embossed Blackberry Bliss panel is now popped on the card base using Stampin Dimensionals.  The card front is now finished and on to the inside sentiment.

The inside sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set is stamped in Blackberry Bliss on a panel of Whisper White.  A die from the Eclectic Layers Thinlits is placed on the sentiment panel and put through the Big Shot.  This dies gives the panel a bit of texture.

That’s my card for today, hope you like it and found it encouraging and inspirational for your creations.

How Sweet It Is!

How Sweet It Is!

Happy Tuesday. 

The card starts with a Gorgeous Grape card base.  I believe this is the first time using this color card stock for a card.  I have used Highland Heather many times and they go well together. A panel from the How Sweet It Is DSP is run through the Big Shot using one of the dies from the  Doily  Builder Framelits Dies.  It is adhered to the Coastal Cabana mat using Liquid Glue.

Inspiration for my card layout comes from the MTF Sketch Challenge for the week.

  The candy jar and the lollipop are fussy cut from another panel of How Sweet It Is DSP.  The candy jar is popped in the Coastal Cabana space.  The stick for the lollipop is cut in two pieces so that it will look as if the lollipop is sticking all the way behind the candy jar.  A tiny bow is made from a short length of Whisper White Twine and tied around the lollipop stick just below the lollipop.  Tiny gummy bears are fussy cut and scattered around the candy jar.  After all items have been adhered to the focal panel, it is popped onto the card base using Mini Stampin Dimensionals.   Since I did not have a Happy Birthday stamp that was a single line, I used the stamp from the Better Together stamp set and did a bit of masking so it would only stamp one word at a time.  It was stamped on a strip of Whisper White card stock in Lovely Lipstick and matted on a strip of Coastal Cabana card stock.  This was then popped onto the card base at the bottom of the card, leaving a blank space between the greeting and the focal panel, so I added a few Coastal Cabana stars and I am just now realized that must be a retired item, so you can use any of the Basic Jewel elements to fill in this space or maybe a length of ribbon.  The card front is now finished.

The inside sentiment is stamped on a panel of Whisper White in Coastal Cabana Ink and matted on a panel of Coastal Cabana card stock.  A candy jar from a panel of the How Sweet It Is DSP is fussy cut and adhered to the panel using Liquid Glue.

I hope you liked my card for the day and that you found encouragement and inspiration for your own creation.

Climbing Rose

Hope you have had a grand Sunday in spite of the yucky weather.

My inspirations for today’s card comes from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge for this week.

And Watercooler Wednesday for the Occasion for my card.

Instructions for the card are as follows:

  1. The card base is Old Olive 4-1/4” x 11” scored at 5-1/2”
  2. Mat for the art panel is Flirty Flamingo 4” x 5-1/4” adhered to the card base with Liquid Glue.
  3. Art panel Whisper White 3-3/4” x 5” embossed with the Subtle TIEF. Before embossing stamp the greeting in Old Olive ink using a stamp from the Bunch of Blossoms stamp set.  Much easier to stamp before embossing.  If you stamp after embossing it doesn’t look smooth and clean.
  4. Cut trellis for butterflies from Whisper White card stock using a die from the Rose Trellis Thinlits Dies, coordinates with the Climbing Roses stamp set.
  5. Adhere trellis to art panel using Liquid Glue.
  6. Fussy cut butterflies from the Botanical Butterfly DSP
  7. Stamp the rose corner piece using the Climbing Roses stamp set and Memento Black Ink. This is a nice bunch of roses to color.
  8. Color the roses using Flirty Flamingo and Old Olive Stamping Blends. I think the Flirty Flamingo looks more like Blushing Bride than Flirty Flamingo.
  9. Run the roses through the Big Shot using the coordinating die from the Rose Trellis Thinlits Dies.
  10. Adhere to the corner of the embossed Whisper White art panel using Liquid Glue.
  11. Everything that needs adhering to the art panel is now finished, so adhere it to the Flirty Flamingo mat that has been adhered to the Old Olive base. That’s it for the card front.
  12. Stamp the Happy Birthday from the Better Together stamp set on a panel of Whisper White and adhere to the inside card base.

Humming Along

Humming Along

It is amazing what you can make with scraps.  Thank you Just Us Girls for giving me that challenge. The challenge to make something from leftovers.  Kind of like dinner what can you cook up with leftovers.  You know how when you are card making, you stamp this piece and then think, “no, I don’t want that,” so it goes in the box along with all the other pieces you have stamped or cut thinking I will use this one day. Since this challenge is Leftovers, I decided to dig in my box and see what I could come up with to use.

 The card base is Thick Whisper White and the background piece is also Thick Whisper White that has splashed with watercolor and stamped with an assortment of dots. It is adhered to the card base using Liquid Glue. The Humming Along hummingbird is colored Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends.  The little piece of grill looking texture behind the hummingbird is from the Hummingbird Framelites Dies and is adhered using Liquid Glue.  The greeting is stamped in Balmy Blue on a scrap of Balmy card stock, Old Olive and White Twine is wrapped around the greeting piece a few time and tied in a bow then popped on the background piece using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Three sequins have been adhered under the greeting. The Humming Along hummingbird (don’t you just love that bird) is then popped over the greeting panel.  Several sequins are scattered over the background piece.

The inside sentiment from the Seasoned with Kindness stamp set is stamped in Blueberry Bushel on a panel of Whisper White that has a Balmy Blue watercolor wash in the center.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you liked my card.  My wish as always is for you to find encouragement and inspiration for your own creations.  Have a blessed day!
