Climbing Roses

February 19, 2019 admin Comments 8 comments

I used the Climbing Rose stamp set and the Rose Trellis Thinlits Dies for my card creation today. I also used butterflies from the Botanical Butterflies Designer Series Paper (DSP) {Free with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration}.

I need to say that I was in such a hurry with my last post I forgot to give Sue Prather credit for CAS(E)ing her. I had told her I was going to CAS(E) her card but forgot to mention it in my post. Click on Sue’s name above and you can go to her blog to see the beautiful card she made.

My inspiration for this card comes from the Global Design Project challenge for this week.

The card base is Granny Apple Green with a Basic Black mat for the Coastal Cabana panel that has been embossed using the Subtle’s Embossing Folder. The trellis is cut from Whisper White card stock using one of the Thinlits Dies from the Rose Trellis Thinlits Die set. The roses are stamped on a panel of Whisper White card stock in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink.

They are then colored using a Granny Apple Green Watercolor Pencil and a Melon Mambo Stampin’ Write Marker. Once the coloring is finished the roses are popped on the right corner of the Coastal Cabana mat using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The Happy Day is stamped on a scrap of Whisper White card stock in Melon Mambo and popped over the trellis with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The butterflies on the trellis are from the Botanical Butterfly DSP (free during Sale-A-Bration with a $50 purchase.) They are colored using Melon Mambo and Coastal Cabana Stampin’ Write Markers.

Three pearls from the Pearl Basic Jewel assortment are popped on the upper right corner of the card front.

The inside sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set is stamped in Melon Mambo on a panel of Whisper White matted on a panel of Basic Black. These panels are adhered to the card base using Liquid Glue. A butterfly from the Botanical Butterfly DSP is colored with Melon Mambo and Coastal Cabana Stampin’ Write Markers and adhered with Liquid Glue to the sentiment panel.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you like my card and that you can find a bit of encouragement and inspiration for your own creations.

Follow Your Dreams and Let It Ride

February 14, 2019 admin Comments 6 comments

I am using the Let It Ride, Follow Your Dreams and Strong and Beautiful stamp sets for my card today. I have come to really like the Follow Your Dreams stamp set and sure hope that it will carry over to the 2019-2020 Annual catalog.

Inspiration for today’s card comes from Just Us Girls Challenge. It is Trend Week.

I started with a Bermuda Bay card base. I also cut the Delicate Lace decorative strip that is down the left side from Bermuda Bay.

A panel is cut from the Wood Texture Designer Series Paper (DSP) to stamp the greeting and horse. They are both stamped using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink. The horse is then colored using Early Expresso ink and a Blender Pen. The edges of the panel are distressed using the edge of my scissors. The inside sentiment panel is also distressed.

I cut three Dream Catchers from the stamp set Follow Your Dreams. I used a Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet on the back of the Wood Texture DSP so the pieces would be easier to adhere together. By adhering three together it gives dimension so they do not look so flat when adhered to the card front.

The Lacy Edgelit piece is also adhered to the card front using the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet adhered to the back of the Bermuda Bay card stock. After it and the Dream Catcher are adhered to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue the panel is popped on the card base using Stampin Dimensionals. A dot from the Glitter Enamel Dots is adhered to the center of the Dream Catcher.

A panel from the Wood Texture DSP is cut and the sentiment along with the Dream Catcher is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink. An enamel dot from the Glitter Enamel Dots is adhered to the center of the Dream Catcher.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you find my card to your liking and that you can get inspiration and encouragement for your own creation

Wonderful Romance

February 12, 2019 admin Comments 22 comments

Welcome everyone—it’s 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. Now on to the hop.

My card is from the Wonderful Romance stamp set. I think this is such a pretty stamp bundle. Using this stamp set will give you the opportunity to make beautiful cards.

Isn’t this a beautiful card? The greeting is from Bunch of Blossoms. I like this greeting and use it often.

The card base is Call Me Clover card stock. The Whisper White mat for the art piece has been cut using one of the dies from the Wonderful Romance stamp bundle. I think it makes for a very nice panel to adhere flowers.

I am playing today in the Cas Mix-up February Challenge. Hoping my card qualifies.

The flowers were stamped in Memento Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White and colored with Lovely Lipstick and Call Me Clover Stampin Blends. a ribbon is tied around the bottom of the flowers so it looks like you are holding a bunch of flowers.

The inside sentiment panel has been cut with the same die as the one on the front. Happy Birthday from the Better Together stamp set has been stamped in Call Me Clover ink.

Country Floral TIEF

February 10, 2019 admin Comments 4 comments

This card just sort of happened. The Country Flora embossing folder is one of the freebies ($50 purchase required) available in the second release of Sale-A-Bration. When mine arrived, I wondered what it would look like if the flowers were colored, so I used sponge daubers with Lovely Lipstick, Flirty Flamingo and Pear Pizzazz ink and sponged the ink on the embossing folder then put it through the Big Shot. Well… it turned out to be a great looking art panel so I decided to use it for a card. Then one of our Krew members said her mom was having her 96th birthday and we could send her a card if we wanted too. I thought a precious lady who has graced her family and friends with that many years needs lots of birthday cards, so I used the beautiful embossed piece to make a card for her.

My inspiration comes from the Inspire Create Challenge for this week. How appropriate the Theme is Sale-A-Bration freebies and the embossing folder

The embossed panel with a Polka Dot Tulle ribbon tied in a bow was popped on a Whisper White card base. Happy Birthday was cut from the Well Said stamp bundle. The 96 is cut from an old die set. The card is finished. Thank you for stopping by today. The card looks much better and I think beautiful in person. Hope you can find encouragement and inspiration from it. There is no inside sentiment to show, I forgot to take a picture and I do hope I put an inside sentiment before mailing to that sweet precious lady. Have a blessed day.

After my card was made, I was looking at the SAB brochure and it seems I am CAS(E)ing Stampin’ Up’s! sample card. Had not noticed it before deciding to see what the embossing panel would look like with color. Great minds think the same!!
