Purple Harvest

Good Morning,

I am bringing back Painted Harvest again today, absolutely love this set.

I have used a Whisper White card base. The Crumb Cake card layer was embossed with Petal Burst embossing folder.

The colour combination for the flowers was Wisteria Wonder, Elegant Eggplant and Sahara Sand. The leaves were stamped in Crumb Cake.

The sentiment was stamped with Elegant Eggplant ink on to Whisper White card stock and cut to a simple rectangle. This was tucked behind the flowers for a simple look.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked below.

Thanks for stopping by and happy stampin’!

Note Card Box

Hi there,

Yesterday, I posted a set of note cards, today I am showing how I made a box to present them.

Two pieces of Whisper White were cut to 9-1/2 by 8 inches. scored at 1 and 2 inches.

To ensure the lid fits the base, use a card stock shim against the side bar of the scoring board.

Before constructing the lid, I die cut a window. In the photo, you can see this was above centre, though in hindsight, I think it would have looked better right the middle. A piece of Foiled Acetate was adhered to the inside.

I then stamped over the top using the Floral Phrases stamp and versamark ink. This was heat embossed with silver powder.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked below.

In Colour Note Cards

Good Morning,

Today’s project is something simple that could be used as a gift idea.

I have used Stampin’ Up! note cards, which are smaller than my usual card bases measuring 3-1/2 by 5 inches.

A piece of Fresh Floral DSP was cut to 3-3/8 by 3 inches. A piece of coordinating finely woven ribbon was adhered along the top with Fast Fuse. This was then added to the bottom of the card.

The sentiment from Floral Phrases was stamped onto a strip of Whisper White card stock. This was adhered to the card with dimensionals.

Three rhinestones finished off the card. The envelopes were also embellished with the matching floral stamp.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online shop below.

Tis The Season

Good Morning,

October is almost over, which means there are only a few days left to take advantage of the current promotions.

But never fear something super shiny and new is coming in November!

So, the project for today uses Merry Patterns, Be Merry DSP and a little taster of what the new Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers can do.

The card base was made with Garden Green card stock to which DSP was added. The images from Merry Patterns were stamped on to thick Whisper White square die cut using Memento ink.

To colour the word ‘season’ I used the Cherry Cobbler markers, using darker shade at the bottom of the letters.

For the candles I used Calypso Coral and a touch of Daffodil Delight to achieve a glowing effect. The coloured piece was added to a Garden Green scalloped square. This was adhered to the card with some foil snowflakes behind it using dimensionals.

 

Look out for more information on Stampin’ Blends next week.

I hope you enjoyed this project and pop back again soon.

Happy Stampin’!

Happy Birthday Memories #GDP110

Good Morning,

It’s Wednesday – that means its Global Design Project day. This week is a sketch challenge.

You can see what the design team created here.

… And this is my interpretation of the sketch…

The card base is made with Real Red card stock which was stamped using the Brushstrokes background and Real Red ink.

I used Birthday Memories DSP to create the topper. Two strips were cut to 1-1/2 by 4 inches and matted on to Early Espresso card stock. Some Whisper White bakers twine and Linen thread were wrapped around the topper before adhering to the card base with dimensionals.

The sentiment was taken from Happy Birthday Gorgeous and stamped in Real Red ink. This was cut with the Starburst punch.

To complete the topper, this was layered on to another Starburst cut from Early Espresso and a Crumb Cake stitched circle. This was adhered flat to the card.

I substituted the heart from the sketch with a circle. A 1-1/4 inch punch was used to cut a cake from another sheet of DSP. This was added to Real Red and Crumb Cake circles. This was adhered to the card with dimensionals.

The finishing touch was to add some rhinestones.

 

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Thanks for stopping by and happy stampin’!

…So She Did!

Hi there,

Had a bit of fun with this card design.

I started by stamping and colouring little miss piggy on to a piece of Whisper White card stock.

She looked a bit lonely in the air all by herself, so I thought I would add some perspective with some distant houses. These were borrowed from the Hearts Come Home stamp set.

I created a hill by drawing round a small bowl with a journalling pen. I then cut a simple paper mask which allowed me to stamp the houses on the hill.

I decided she needed some clouds in the sky with her too, and a bit of sparkle on her wings…it is a magical pig after all!

I hope you enjoyed today’s project.

Thanks for stooping by and happy stampin’!
