Stampin’ Up!. Pearls – Stampin with Shirley G

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!

Incredible Like You

March 2, 2019 admin

Today I am using the Incredible Like You stamp set. It is a fun set to use. My card has a Pool Party card base and is embossed using the SubtleTextured Impression Embossing Folder (TIEF). It is a one layer other than the jar with the flowers from the Incredible Like You stamp set.

Today’ s Inspiration comes from The Sisterhood of Crafters. The challenge this week is called “In The Red” Use the color red on your project or card.

And since I am using the stamp set Incredible Like You, What Would You Stamp is having a challenge using that set so I thought why not join that one also.

The flowers are stamped in Lovely Lipstick on a panel of Whisper White card stock. This was done three times as I wanted three flowers. Each flower was fussy cut.

A jar was cut from Vellum card stock using the Everyday Jar Framelits. A length of Linen Thread was wrapped three times around the neck of the jar and tied in a bow. A doily from the Doily Builder Thinlits Dies was cut from a panel of Whisper White card stock. It was adhered to the Pool Party card base using Liquid Glue. I stamped the stems twice for each stem to make sure they were long enough for the jar and still be able to adhere the flower heads to them using Stampin’ Dimensionals cut in two pieces. The stems were adhered using Glue Dots and the flower heads were adhered using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. Three pears from the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls package are scattered to various spots on the card front.

The sentiment is stamped on a panel of Whisper White card stock using Lovely Lipstick ink. A flower and stem are also stamped using Lovely Lipstick and Pear Pizzazz ink.

Thank you for stopping by today! I hope you are having a blessed day.
