Stampin’ Up! Lasting Lily
Today is the day we get additional products for the Occasions catalog and additional products for Sale-A-Bration. WOW! WooHoo! YaH! Aren’t we all excited?
I have a young friend being married soon and her colors are black and white. Her bridesmaids are carrying three black lilies, so when I saw this stamp set, I knew I just had to make her a card with lilies. But…then along comes a card challenge that is black and …how perfect can it get.
The Freshly Made Sketches is perfect for this challenge.
The card base is Basic Black card stock
The mat is Whisper White card stock that has been embossed using the Subtle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF).
The diagonal strips are cut from Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper (DSP). The strips are adhered to the Whisper White mat using Liquid Glue.
The art piece is stamped with Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White. This stamp is a Dist-INK-tive stamp. Basic Black card stock is used as a mat for the art piece. (Info about this stamp:
One of the most innovative new products released by Stampin’ Up! in recent times is the new patent-pending ‘Distinktive‘ range of stamps. The stamps made with is distinktive process lay down the ink at different opacities giving the finished image more depth. There’s nothing tricky about how to apply the ink; just ink the surface lightly for a perfect photographic finish.) Click here to watch a video about this type stamp: https://youtu.be/QF5VHPlkScQ
The greeting is from the Best Birds stamp set and is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a small panel of Whisper White. It is adhered with Liquid Glue across the bottom of the art piece. Several Pearl Basic Jewels are scattered around the front of the Whisper White mat and the art panel. Everything has been added to the Whisper White mat so it can now be popped on the card base using Stampin Dimensionals.
The inside sentiment is stamped in Memento Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White. A lily is stamped in the lower right corner. This card looks beautiful in person but it doesn’t look to great to me once it has been photographed.
That’s my card for today. Hope you like black and white cards and that you can find encouragement and inspiration for your own creations. Have a blessed day!

Stampin’ With ShirleyG Butterfly Rewards
Qualify to earn FREE Stampin’ Up! product from ANY current Stampin’ Up! catalog or promotion! The Stampin With ShirleyG Rewards Program is my way of personally saying “thank you” to my frequent shoppers.
How Butterfly Rewards Work:
- For each $25 that you order from my online store (before S & H) you will earn one Butterfly. You also earn my monthly Online Class Tutorial with projects that are exclusive to my classes!
- You will earn one Butterfly for each friend that you refer when they place their first order of $25+ from my online store.
- When you have earned 16 Butterflies you will get a FREE product order valued up to $40.00, your choice and mailed directly to you!
NO MONTHLY COMMITMENT – Just place a $25.00 or greater online order through me (must be a single order of $25 or higher before shipping and tax) online. For every full increment of $25.00 (before shipping and tax), you earn one Butterfly. Individual orders may NOT be combined to attain a Butterfly. Example: a product order of $49 would not qualify for a Butterfly. However, an order of $101 would qualify for TWO Butterflies. Please note, when shopping online make sure that you are shopping in my online store otherwise your orders won’t count toward your Butterfly Reward totals.
I’ve created a sheet to help you keep track of your Butterfly Rewards. You can open and print the PDF by clicking on the link here:
