Stampin’ Up! Products Used In Creating This Card


Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood — Thinking Of You

Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood — Thinking Of You

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood Stamp Set and Dies along with Wildflower Designs and Sketched Butterfly Stamp Sets.  After I had this card made I realized I had used Poetic Expressions Designer Series Paper instead of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper.

Challenges:

Can You Handle The Pressure (CYHTP) Challenge

Ellibelle’s Corner: I Spy With My Little Eye Challenge … Something Magical 

Card Cuts

  • Misty Moonlight cardstock
    • card base — 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″ (this is a landscape card)
  • Basic White cardstock
    • embossed panel card front — 4″ x 5-1/4″
    • inside panel — 4″ x 8-1/4″ scored at 5-1/4″ and 6-3/4″
    • magnolia — 4-1/4″ x 8″
  • Poetic Expressions Designer Series Paper 
    • piece across card front — 2-1/8″ x 5″

The card base is Misty Moonlight card stock.   Cut a panel of Basic White cardstock, adhere to the card fron with two glue dots so it can be removed after die cutting the opening for the greeting.  Cut a panel of Poetic Expression Designer Series Paper adhering over the Basic White panel.  Die cut an opening in the card front by placing a die from Thoughtful Expression Dies over the Poetic Expression panel.  You will be cutting through three layers.  Using the circle that is die cut front the card front, stamp a greeting using a stamp from Stampin’ Up!  Sketched Butterflies Stamp Set.

Once die cut, remove the panels carefully from each other, so the Basic White panel can be embossed using the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder.  After embossing, adhere the Poetic Expressions panel to the embossed panel again, this time using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or adhesive of choice.  Adhere the Basic White embossed panel to the card front making sure to align the openings evenly.

Stamp the magnolia image along with the image of the magnolia bud and small flower in Smoky Slate ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock.  Color the images using Balmy Blue, Bubble Bath, Granny Apple, and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends.  Die cut the large magnolia image  when die cutting the magnolia, small magnolia, and the magnolia bud. 

Stamp a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs Stamp Set using Night Of Navy ink.  Adhere the Magnolia bud in the lower corner, see photo above.  Adhere the panel to the inside of the card base.

Close the card and adhere the greeting in the circle, making sure to only place adhesive on a portion of the circle so you won’t glue your card closed.  See the photo above this one for how the sentiment circle looks when the card is opened.  You can see only a portion of the card has been adhered to the inside panel.

Adhere a panel of Poetic Express Designer Series Paper to a Basic White envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

One of the perks of being a demonstrator is that you get to pre-order before a new catalog  launches so you are able to show your customers what they can look forward to having when the new catalog comes out.  You will also be getting at least a 20% discount on purchases. If you love card making as a hobby, you can still be a demonstrator and get that discount to help get more card making items,  or you can be like I was and buy Stampin’ Up! products for 10 years before I became wise enough to become a demonstrator to get the discount.  When I think of all the stamping products that 20% would have brought over those 10 years, I cringe.

Stampin’ Up! Products Used In Creating This Card


 

 

 

 

 

Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia — Enjoy Today

Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia — Enjoy Today

The card I am sharing today is from left over pieces that I have in my stash.  The stamp set is Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia  Stamp Set with Dies and Embossing Folder.

Challenges for this card:

Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge 

Can You Handle The Pressure (CYHTP)  Challenge

Ellibelle’s Crafty Wednesday Challenge   

Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenge  

These are the card cuts needed to create this card.

  • Basic White cardstock
    • card base — 4-1/4′ x 11′ scored at 5-1/2″
    • embossed panel — 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
    • zinnias — (stamp & cut 2)  4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
    • inside circle — 4″ x 4″
  • Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper
    • strip down card front — 1″ x 5-1/2″
    • inside flower — fussy cut one flower

The embossed panel is one I found in my stash with the Flowering Zinnia strip down the side.  I can not remember the die that die cut the holes in the strip.  I looked through my stamp sets but it must be a retired one or else I over looked it.  The embossed panel is adhered to the Basic White cardstock card base using adhesive of choice, I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

  1. On a piece of Basic White cardstock, stamp the zinnia image twice,  stamp the leaf image three times.  
  2. Color the zinnias and leaves using Flirty Flamingo, Highland Heather, Old Olive, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends.
  3.  Die cut the zinnias using a die from Simply Zinnia Dies.
  4. Adhere the zinnias and leaves over the embossed panel on the card front.
  5. Stamp in Memento Black ink a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day Stamp Set.
  6. Put 3 Glue Dot on the back of the greet and wrap Linen Thread three times around the Glue Dots.
  7. Adhere the greeting at  the bottom of the embossed card front. 
  8. Add gems from Purple Shimmery Fine Gems to the card front.
  9. Using a die from Spotlight On Nature Dies, die cut a circle from Basic White cardstock. 
  10. Stamp in Memento Black ink a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Stamp Set in the center of the die cut circle.
  11. Die cut a zinnia from a piece of Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper.
  12. Adhere the zinnia at the top of the circle using adhesive of choice, I used Multipurpose Glue.
  13. Pop two gems from Purple Shimmery Fine Gems on the sentiment circle.
  14. A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Subtle 6′ x 6″ Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Glue or adhesive of choice.  My card is a CAS of a card Sharon Armstrong created, but I had to make it mine so I added to it.

I am happy you stop  by today.  I hope you take the time to linger and look at my other blog posts and cards and that you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day. My hope and wish are that you wilbe inspired to create amazing creations yourself. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!
